JACKSON, Miss, September Is.
The last installment of 10000 r%ationst
issued by the Secretary of War, arrived to-
day. They were consigned to II. l.. Saun-
ders, President of the Howard Association,
for the benefit of the yellow fever suffer
ers, and will be held strictly in trust by

town, instead of seeking the cotton-felds
hat now invite them, arc not considered
by the Towards as yellow fever sufferers.
Luiu-s Bis Race
KANSAS CRY, September IS.
The great event of the day was Lulu's
| achievement. Thu track, owing to a
| dear.l of rain and severe use by running
| horses, was in bad condition and consid-
cred from six to eight seconds slow. De-
| spite these drawbacks, Lulu trotted the
best heats made by her since she defeated
Goldsmith Maid in 1876. The first heat
was made in 2:24, she breaking badly. The
second heat was made in 2:20is, skipping
but once. The third was made in 2:21,
| without a skip. The fact Of this being a
half-mile track, and in bad condition, the
| performance was considered remarkable.

HOLLY SPRINGS. Miss, Sept. Is.
1--WE who are left in health and strength
resolve to continue the struggle with
Drawer and more united hearts than ever
The writer of this, and those who have so
heroically stood by his side, have endured
every NlclSSItuut VI WdF. Dub VI dShilONA-
edge that they have never seen any such
danger as now threatens us every moment.
The orphans who crowd around us every
morning, and tell us they are left alone,
or the faithful nurses who come bearing
the keys Of houses whose occupants have
been entirely swept away, form a pitiful
sight. One day we meet our friends and
do all that we can in the good work, and
the next hear that they have fallen ano
appeal for our help. To-day ! saw a greaI
strong man burst into tears and say, o
God, l had rather nave died than to liy,
and witness such scenes / really believe
that, were it not for the messages of sym
pathy and offers of aid we have received
from our m%ournful friends, far away, W.
would die all Of us from wretchedness ant
dependency.
BosroN, September IS.
The Post says: The violence and brigand
| ism exhibited under Buffers inspiration i
| typica al of the man and his purposes. TIL
introduction Of Kearney, to stir up til
bad blood and play upon the popular pas
| sion, was the first act in the drama. Raid
upon the Democratic -caucuses, and de
frauding our party Of its proper represen
t~atives, was the second. The m~arshallin,
Of his defeated hosts to violently seize an
hold possession of the hall for holding GU
Convention, and compelling a session else
where, was the third. The destruction Q
his leading aim, and the desperation OF
maddened brain is seen in every move
ment of this bold pretender. The defian
foe of both parties, which he has deserte'
and betrayed, he now seeks to carry int
effect by violence, fraud and intimidation
his purpose of destroying our nationa
credit, and in 1880 to march boldly fort
under the black flag Of reputation. From
this time forth, until he shall himself b
captured, and his purpose effectuall
throttled, it must be the irresistible dc
termination and great business Of tn
friends Of Democratic principles, and Q
all lovers of order and sound government
both in the State and Nation, to oppose hi
infamous plot.
The journal says: The body which me
at Worcester yesterday can in no decen
or fair way lay claim to be called represen
tatives of the Democratic party. 1t repre-
sents the Butler party, and as such will b
known and treated in the coming cam
paign, and as representative of all that
evil and vicious aud corrupt in politics. j
will incur the detestation and hatred {
every patriotic citizen, and will be S
effectually crushed at the polls in Noven
Der that the good old Commonwealth {
Massachusetts will be no more vcxed wit
the evil spirit and designs of Butlerism.
