The KEPPLER HoMIcIDE.-Coroner De-
Blanc on Thursday night concluded the in
vestigation into the killing of Matthias
Keppler. who was shot and MORALLY
wounded, on the fifth of November, in his
bsr-room, No. 357 Victory street, as it is
said, by Charles Lockaby, now in Jail. The
evidence was merely circumstantial. as both
men were alone in the bar-room at the time
of the shooting. On the sixth of November
the wounded man made q dying declara-
ton before Judge Webster Long, in which
he stated:
The man that shot me was Charles Lock
ably; we were drinking together anu had
two or three drinks; we were good friends
together; we had no words together; when
he said he would settle our rent on Satur-
day; then he pulled his pistol and shot me
without any cause; he shot me first in the
left side Of the stomach, and the second
time in the left hand.
The declaration was witnessed by Messrs.
j. w. Jones, Isaac Parker, Joseph Jacobs
and Aug. Weight.
The coroner will to-day make an affidavit
against Lockaby, rs the jury has given q
verdict to the effect that he was the sup
posed murderer.

A RUNAwAY.-A pair of horses attached
to q buggy, in which Mr.. Clement Story
was driving toward town from his plantation
in St. Bernard, were frightened yesterday
morning in the vicinity Of the jackson monu-
ment, Chalmette, and ran away. A little ne
gro boy who was marching along the levee
beating time with an empty tin can, was
the cause of frightening the animals to such
an extent that they became quite unman-
agesble, and never stopped in their mad
career until they had run full tilt against
the slsughterhouse gate, which happened to
be drawn across the road, and which being
very stout and strong, at last brought them
to halt. Fortunately Mr.. Story, who was
alone in the buggy, was not injured.

:nouncing the war a failure and. vot-
ing for Mcclellan. Such conduct
was hardly consistent with a sincere
desire for the prosecution of the
war to a completely successful issue,
though we admit that it is not proof
Of disloyalty. It only demonstrated
that party predictions were more
potent, at that time, with Judge
Wilder, than private judgment CON-
bined with the promptings OF patri-
otism. Is it not likely that the same
influence will continue to control
the conduct of the Judge, should he
be elected now as the candidate of
his party?

We used to believe that Tilden
was opposed to the war and that he
declared that coercion to sustain
the Union] is, at least, as unconsti-
tutional and revolutionary as is Sc
cession. But we have been read
ing democratic papers lately, and
learn from them that he really did
more than any other man in the
country to inaugurate, carry on sue
cessfully and successfully terminate
the war ! In fact, if we believe
what these papers say, the pfeserva
ton of the Union is due mainly to
Mr.. Tilden's personal efforts What
perfect nonsense this is! Every
reader who remembers what was
published during the war, cannot
but remember that Samuel J. Til
den was then conspicuous as an op-
ponent of the war. To deny this
now is the sheerest folly.

are still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can be
employed: cleansing the stomach and
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses Of one pill day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote Wig
orous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than a quarter Of a century, and
have obtained worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
cased action in the several assimila-
tive organs of the body, and are 50
composed that Instructions within
their range can rarely withstand or
cvade them. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and danger
GUS diseases that have baftied the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time, the safest and best. physic for
children. BY their apcrient action
they grippe much less than the common
purgatives, and never give pain when
the bowels are not int!amcd. They
reach the vital fountains Of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing
1t from the elements Of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions
in all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any lclcteriouS drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their yar-coatinS pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take: while being
purely vegetable. no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

An Unfair Argument.

Some of our democratic friends
are urging republicans to vote for
Judge Wilder, because his election
can make no difference in the poIit-
ical complexion Of the congression-
al house Of representatives. That
body is democratic any way, they
urge, and the addition of a single
member cannot matter. This argyll
ment is neither fair nor true. The
congress to which the members
chosen this fall are to belong is not
yet elected, and it is not yet posi-
bic for us to know which party may
predominant therein. It may be
that, if Judge Wilder is elected
from this district, his election will
give the democrats majority. We
have seen that the republicans gain
congressman in all the States, we
believe, in which elections have
been held so far, and there is ground
for the hope that the elections yet
to take place will yield sufficient
gains to give that party majority
in the house.
Certainly the republicans of this
district do not want to be instru-
mental in placing the control of the
house again in the hands Of demo.
Gratis, through their desire to do
honor to Judge Wilder, nor because
of the silly twaddle that is INDUCED
in against Major Strait. So far as
the district is concerned it needs
no legislation that Major Strait is
not entirely competent to procure;
and so far as the country at large is
concerned, surely republicans CAN
not suppose that its interests are
safer in democratic than in republic
can management. What, then, can
be gained by the change ? If Mr..
Tilden is elected to the presidency
which is hardly possible, a few DEM
ocrats might get appointments to
Offices now worthily fitted by repub-
licans. This is the utmost gain that
could be expected. And if Gen.
Hayes is elected (which we do not
doubt,) even this much change can
not be looked for. What is the
great advantage, then, to flow from
the election of Judge Wilder? We
cannot see any.

The editor of the Zumbrota In
dependent implicitly denies that a
letter published in the ADVANCE two
weeks ago, and dated at Zumbrota,
was written from that town. Pre-
haps he knows the sentiments and
controls the consciences of all the
inhabitants Of that locality, but some
of them, when they get to Red Wing,
escape from his influence, for the
time being, and do not fatter him
very much in the remarks to which
they give utterance. We guess
that he is troubled with ''too much

An Amende.

In communication printed else
where, DR.. w. w. Sweeney objects
to a sentence we used last week IN
an editorial article, viz: awe have
no doubt that Judge Wilder was op-
posed to the war;" &C., and says
not only that such was not the case,
but affirms that the Judg sincerely
favored and urged the vigorous
prosecution of the war, and was op-
posed to any other terms than CON-
ple1e submission on the part Of the
South. We can implicitly rely upon
what the Doctor says, and, while
assuring him that we honestly be-
lieved, when we wrote the sentence
he complains of, that Judge Wilder
did oppose the war, we are glad to
learn from him that we were mis-
taken. 1t is not our purpose to
misrepresent Judge Wilder, and we
regret having given utterance to an
unfair statement concerning him.
Hence we gladly make all the repair
alton in our power, by publishing
the Doctors letter and acknowledg
ing that our own opinion was based
wholly upon hearsay. We have
known Judge Wilder for seventeen
years, but have never been intimate
nor held conversations with him ex-
cept on the most commonplace
topics. We do not now remember
that we ever heard him speak con-
corning the war, its causes, incl
dents, or consequences. The in1-
pressions we had received were the
effects of conversations with his
more intimate friends, whom we had
not suspected Of disappearing
him even by implication. That
they did so, (unintentionally no
doubt,) is apparent from the state
ments made by DR.. Sweeney, who
probably understands his views and
opinions better than almost any
other person.
We can also fully appreciate what
DIR. Sweeney intimates about the lia-
bility Of persons during the war to
be charged with disloyalty; and
agree with him that many of those
who suffered in public esteem on
this account were far more patriotic
than their accusers. Great injus-
tice was done in very many instan-
ces, and it is decidedly wrong that
the odium attaching to worthy gen.
tlemen, because OF their having been
misunderstood or misrepresented,
should continue to affect public
opinion. We certainly do not de-
sire to perpetuate it, and because
man is the candidate of an opposing
political party cannot be an excuse
for our nisrepresenting him. In
this instance we have done so unwit-
tingly and it occasions us sincere
regret.
One thing, however, staggers US.

with the democracy in 1864, sane
tioning the famous resolution pro-

A Curious Snake and IL Plucky
Eagle.

David w. Cartwright, a trapper wei
known in the West, and a man whose
word may be implicitly trusted, states
in his late work on Western Wild An
imals," that he once discovered u two
headed snake in the vicinity of Hum
boldt River. The creature was dimin-
utive in size, measuring only sixteen
inches in length, and was "at n end
about like a lead pencil, the other end
being larger" The heads terminated
the two eXtremities-that at the tail be-
ing smaller than the one at the opposite
end. They were both perfectly devel-
oped, and seemed to share the leader
ship between them, for the snake was
able to crawl equally well with either
one foremost. The reptile had been fa-|
tally wounded by II party in advance of
him, just before Mr.. Cartwright found
it-therefore he had not much oppor-
tunity to experiment with it; yet he|
states that =" if u stick were put in 'front.'
of either head, it (the snake) would
back away from it,"
Mr.. Cartwright also describes, in the
same book, a curious encounter with AM
eagle. While hunting in the winter of
1915 on the Yellow River, near Chip1
pewa, Wisconsin, his companion went
out one day to bring in the carcass of
a deer that had been hungon a tree fod
safe keeping. The man had borne tho
deer about forty rods from thd
tree when m eagle swooped down
in the path about twelve feet
in front Of him, and turning about
''planted itself upon the ground in 4
decidedly combative attitude. 1t stood
upon one foot with the other uplifted ad
if ready for a fight; its head was erect
its sharp eyes sharply fixed upon thd
nan carrying off the deer, upon which
it was probably about to feed; the feath1
ers were all turned forwards and stood
on ends, and the wings were partially
spread" The man dropped the deei
