COLONEL rHomAs II. LOCKWOOD.


Where the attack is fiercest there the
defense should be the most resolutei
Democrats should fssTiessly unite in be-
bsIf of those sgaiDst whom the RADICALS
and independents have combined. Such
men are organizing a combination
against the Democratic nominees IN gen.
ersI, and against Colonel Thomas d.
Logwood in particular. From the day
that nominations were made, this latter
combination has been apparent. For the
purpose Of defeating Colonel LogWood,
the Independents and Radicals have
struck hands, and against BIN all their
secret and open efforts have been d.
rected, Colonel Logwoo | has earned
their hostility by his unfiinching devO'
ton to the party that nominated him,
and by cliugiDg to his party at the risk
of a cannouade of abuse. These
things are grave crimes in the eyes
Of the Radicals, aud especially the
Independents, and they are now picking
grain in the same bsrnyaId, scratching
contentedly in the same rubbish for
something by which to damage the DEM
ocratic nominee for criminal court Judge.
Colonel Logwood, just before his nomi'
nation, was good enough to head an In-
dependent ticket, and was importuned
for that purpose; but because hs wcu'
not betray his party, and bsc3me
traitor to his own teachings, he sudden
Iy becomes incompetent for the ONCE
which he was a marvelously proper
man to fill when besleged to become an
Independent candidate. These people
cannot defeat Colonel Logwood. Theil
war upon Linn, 1t seems to us, is a gooC
reason why his triumph should be TIT
more brilliant. Democrats should rally
to the man the Radicals and the hide
pendents reject. Colonel Logwood il
every way competent for the position tt
which he has been nominated by hisp ar
ty. and the Democracy of Shelby should
see to it that he is not defeated Dy
treacherous foe skulking from fair an'
equal combat, and lying in wait for
stealthy attack on the day Of the cleo
ton. The bearing of Colonel Logwoo'
as the standard-bearer Of his party ha
been admirable. With brave spirit h
has endured every species Of party oh
loquy and persecution. With an Inn
perturbable self. possession and unerrin
instict of judgment, he has controlle'
his conduct under the most trying cir
cumstances, in such manner as to VII
the admiration Of every person who Cal
appreciate the delicate sensibility an
unobtrusive modesty of his truly chiv
aIric character. Let the Democra
CIV OF Shelby be prepared T.
meet and defeat the opposition
which, Cd the eve of election, will b
arrsyed against our ticket in genera
and against Colonel LogwOod in psrtic
ular, Let us stand firm to every ma
on the ticket. Let US storm every fort
ress, capture every outpost, sweep To
county from one extremity to the othel
and make the moral force Of the victor
so great that the Radicals and Indeper
dents will never sgaiu conspire for tn
defeat OF the unconquerable Democrat
of old Shelby, We again appeal TO th
Democracy throughout the county, 6
every precinct, whether they are or
to ten or ten to one, toturn out to ma

glorious triumph on the third OF Angus

DURING last week q petition, signed
by forty-eight OF the citizens of Gates
vile, Texas, was present d to the mayor
and aldermen, asking them to resign.
The object Of thu petitioners was to
avoid paying corporation taxes, and
they alleged that the general laws are
sufficient for the protection Of citizens.
In reply, the members Of the corpora

Come, when the spring the leaf untolds,
And calls the swallow from atar;
When earth the flower no more W1thholds,
And beauty wakes IN bird and star.
In vain the stars soft ray,
In vain the wild birds lay,
Unless thou come,
Thou wanderer, home;
Thou, to my heart new life TO be,
Spring, with thy gracious gifts to me.

The Latest Wonder of Tele-
graPhy.

Boston Ir2VelleI.I
The readers Of the Traveller have
been made acquainted with the woGder-
ful inventions Of Prof. Bell, by
which musical and vocal sounds can be
and have been sent over the electric
wires, but few, il any, are aware OF the
wonderful rtsll's which are sure to fol-
low these Improvement in telegrsphy.
A few nights ago Prot. Bell YVES in
communication with telegraph OPERA
tor in New York, and commenced eX-
periments with one of his inventions
pertaining to the transmission OF mu5i-
cal sounds. He made use Of his phonetic
organ and played the tune Of Gamer
ica,u and asked the operator in New
York what he heard.
81 hear the tune OF America" re-
piled New York. "Give US another"
Prof. Bell then played "Auld Lang
Syne."
"What do you hear nOw2"
81 hear the tune Of 'Auld Lang Syne,'
with the full chords, distinctly" replied
New York.
Thus the astounding discovery has
been made that a man can play upon
musical instruments In New FORK, New
Orleans, or London, or Paris, and be
heard distinctly in Boston! II this can
be done, why cannot distinguished per-
formers execute the mes. artistic ana
beautiful music in Paris aud an audience
assemble in Music hall, Boston, to list.
en-? Professor Bells other improve
ment, namely, the transmission Of the
human voice, has become so far perfect
ed that persons have cOnversed over one
thousand miles OF wire with perfect
ease, although as yet the vocal sounds
are not jud enough to be heard by more
than one or two persons. But If the
human voice can now be sent over the
wire, and so distinctly that when two or
three known parties are telegraPbing
the voices of each can be recognized, We
may soon have distinguished men de-
livering speeches in Washington, New
York OF London, and audiences assem-
bled in Music hall or FAIeuil hall to
listen!
