POOR KENTUCKY

1t seems that the clark and bloody"
commonwealth is degenerating. She
appears to have exhausted herself in
producing those peerless men, Clay
and Breckenridge, and now that she
may continue to be famous she is tax
ing the intelligence and wealth of her
people to raise bloodcd horses instead
of blooded men.
With the average Kentuckian of
this day horse blood is more valua Bile
than human blood. Instead of di-
recting public attention to the diffusion
of general intelligence among her I'M
lettered masses, Kentucky delights to
rally her fair women and brave men
at grand metropolitan horse-race and
there amid the widest jockeying and
the most extravagant waste of energy
TO strain every nerve to have Ten
Brock receive the rejoicing applause
of thirty thousand multitude OF
people.
Would it not be far more rational
and sensible to have metropolitan
display of the intellectual prowess and
scholastic attainments of some of her
choice youths, where the true mental
and moral worth of the rising genera
ton would be stimulated to the highest
and purest exercise?
We hope Tennessee will not so idol
ize the horse that her boys will fall be
low the brute in the scale of public
estimation. 1t is good to have i'm
proved stock for agricultural purposes
hut very mwise 70 go to that extreme
that the public thought of great
State is solely directed to the enrich
ment and notoriety of horse rings.
May our State be delivered from
the money monopolies of the Fast
and the stud craftsmanship of Ken
lucky.
The true blue blood of the best
alistocracy is bottomed upon intellec
tual cultivation and elevatedcharacte
We plead for the training of our
youths rather than the training OF
horses.

Trouble Ahead.

/ have seen an article in the BulIe-
tin dated June both, 1873, requesting
the candidates Of the Democratic party
for Circuit Court Clerk, to meet in
convention for the purpose of selecting
one of that number to beat Mr.. Bar
rett, the Republican candidate, also
read Afr. N. H. Prewitt's article of29,
on that subject / intended to set forth
the feelings Of the Republican party
and also some few Democrats. But
as Mr.. Prewitt has already done so,
and much more ADLER than | could, /
will say in support Of his article that it
meets the appreciation of all Republi-
cans here. We have a good Democrat
here for that office and we expect to
vote for him, unless it is made a politi-
cal race, in that event then we will vote
for Barrett. l have always objected to
politics being any issue in county cleo
tons. But TO try and elect the best
man let his politics be what they may.
Respectfully, j. p WOOSTER.

oPFNINa BIG HATCuIE RIVER.

Monday last the Chamber of
Commerce, Of Memphis, adopted
the following resolution, and ap
pointed a strong committee in
accordance Herewith:
The following resolution, offer
ed by Mr.. Il. G. Buchanan, was
adopted:
Resolued, That the chamber of
commerce, appoint committee
to confer with the proper author
tiles in the counties of Upton,
Haywood and Hardeman, look
ing to the passage Of an act by
the next general assembly for the
opening of Big Hatchie river, by
requiring the Memphis and Louis
vile railroad company to put
draw bridge over said stream, and
that the other roads crossing said
stream below Bolivar, Tenn. be re-
Quired to construct like bridges.
The committee appointed was
AS follows: Messrs. +. Q. Bac-
hanan, Jerome Hill and T. Worm
eley.
No question is Of more real in
terest to our people than that
which is contained in the above
resolution. This fine waterway
sweeping by our door is a God
ordained and natural freight way
for all this country. Man 5
selfish ingenuity has sealed it to
navigation, and put an embargo
upon its commercial use. Har-
deman county should place her
self in a position to have this
measure strongly backed in the
Legislature. The railroads will
be there to defeat this move
ment, if possible, and hence COM
bination and organization must
be had to break down opposition
and have a suitable bill passed.

Murphys met to enjoy barbecue Their
brothers from Salisbury, Lagrange and

have a happy day. BY twelve o'clock the
grove near the village was crowded with
people Rell-trained musicians were pres

Soon L. A. Roberts, president of the society,
introduced G. W. Armistead who discussed
temperance for an hour and then was fo!-
lowed by G.. w. Hardin, who closed Il e
morning exercises with an excellent speech
Dinner was announced. A procession was
formed and it was indeed procession; the
longest seen for years in this section.
Headed by the band it marched around the
plain and presented fine appearance. We
were escorted along with other white citi-
zens to a separate table and certainly en-
joyed one OF the best p, epared feast we have

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the edge
j Of the ribs, increases on pressGrc
! sometimes the pain is in The lefrsidc; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain IS felt under
the shoulder-b blade, and il frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach IS affected with
loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with 4 dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally aconsider2ble loss ofmemory,
accompanied with painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility; he Is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains OF l
prickly sensation Of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitud>
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.

The Whipping-Post in Virginia.

Firginia's new criminal code,
writes a correspondent from Rich
mond, will become operative on
the first Of July. Under itone or
more whipping posts will be es-
tablished in each city and county
in the commonwealth. In future
there will be no Imprisonment
for petit larceny, except for
second ofrense, and when in the
judgment of the justice or judge
the condition of a female often
der may render stripes unadvisa-
bic. The legislature determined
on this change at the last session,
in view Of the crowded condition
Of the prisons, the costs of main
tanning convicts and the impov-
erishment of the commemorative
financial resources. The right Of
appeal from the judgment of a
justice to trial by jury is, Of
course, reserved. There is some
division of opinion as to he nee
esslty for the ACCOMPLISHMENT
Of the whipping post, but the ma
.jority Of the people undoubtedly
expect great things from it as an
economical and crime preventing
measure.
