Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1878-08-01

The letter of Charlie T. Wright is worthy
of perusal. The writer Is only fifteen years
Of age, and it will be seen that he discusses
politics with the philosophy of mature man
hood. As appropriate to the communication of
the young man, Wright, we give the follow
ing, from the Nashville american:
The young men OF Davidson county have a deep
stake in its future. Every young man who has moral
worth. capacity, aspiration to succeed I'm life is
deeply Interested in the present political contest II
is simply conflict for the mastery between the fr
gal the Industrious the orderly, and the loose ele
ments. II Is a struggle which the idle elements
whose sole aim is office and emolument, will keep
up they have kept II up, unless they are defeated
by such a majority will assure them an asplrant

salary, and seek 70 enter 1t at some straight gate
and quit this climbing up by some other way Young

largely shaped by these conflicts and the prevalence
and power OF loose elements, who have no part or
lot with society, are hostile to all the aspi-
rations OF young men of worth in bust

the contest or his duty. II he shirk ii he will rue

ROBERT j. BLACR.

The withdrawal of w. B. Waldran was
hailed yesterday with joy by the Democracy
of Shelby county. They regarded 1t as Sc
curing the election of Robert J. Black, around
whom the affections of the people cluster with
much tenderness. This praiseworthy and noble
action on the part of Mr.. Waldran has stimu-
lated the friends of Mr.. Black with renewed
zeal, and they have gone to work with the
determination of electing him to-day. 1t is
impossible to conceive how any man in Shell
by county, white or black, Democrat, Ma
tional or Republican, can vote against Robert
J. Black. His capacity is uuquestiOned and
his character is unimpeached. He is careful,
pains taking business man; careful and sys-
tematic in all his transactions, and his man.
ners are popula:, modest and unobtrusiVe,
and would make model clerk of the county
court Such a man should not be defeated.
To prevent such a calamity, such misfor-
tune to the people of Shelby, let every Demo-
crat INCREASINGLY work for R. j. Black to-day.

FATAL JEALOUSY.
Tragic Ending of a COnte st for a Young
Lady's Hand-The Murderer Es-
capes.

RICHMOND, Va, July 30.-As the congre-
cation was coming out of the Baptist church
at Horse Pen Cave, in Tazewewell county,
Barney Richards and Sam Hardaway quar-
relied about lady whom each desired to es-
cort home. The upshot was that Hardaway
drew pistol and shot and killed Richards.
The murderer escaped, and, it Is supposed,
made his way into West Virginia. The
young lady who was at the bottom of the az
fair was in church, and when the bloody
deed was committed, she INDUCED in a par
oxism of grief, and had to be taken home
under the care of doctor. 1t is understood
that she loved Richards, who was slain

Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.I
BosToN, July 29.-General Daniel Plat,
the Great American Traveller" standing
candidate for the Presidency, and of George
Francis Train caliber, has fallen into the
same sin which of late has brought down
many of our leading mercantile giants. To-
day, while expatiating on the objects of Kear-
ney's visit here before a large crowd, he was
arrested for the larceny of sixty dollars, the
property Of one Jacobs, at Swampscott, on
Saturday. He found Jacobs's wallet on the
beach, and after rifing it threw it away. To-
night he confessed having robbed the money,
which he hid in the cellar of one of our pub
lie buildings. He, like Tappan, considers
rs crime simply breach of trust, and at
tributes his arrest to the ingratitude of the
nation for whose education he has labored
over forty years. He will appear in court to-
morrow, and says that he proposes to call
upon President Hayes, whom he helped
elect, to aid him out of his scrape.

roll up such majority will forever end this reign

OF personal aspirants, seeking narrow footing be
tween parties. and betraylng both"
Our young corresp Ondent makes a peril
nent point when he asks, when will the
time come when the Nationals Will have
power in the United States - Never. The
issues they make involve no fundamental
principles; they are ephemeral, and wall pass
away with the return f that prosperity which
vii, follow the rule # the Democratic party
on its accession TO power. 1t wall take the
Nationals ten years to get control OF the gov
eminent. Parties, no more than men, are
born full grown. The people know this, and
they do not care to postpone the Legislation
necessary for their relief until the Nationals
can grow up to strength and efficiency, even
if it had any future prospect. They want
substantial relief, and they mean to have It
soon. But no mushroom party, no matter
how rank It's growth, will be equal to the
Democracy, which is organized in every State
and county in the Unicn, and is marching to
victory The fate of the knownothing or
panization, and the men who claimed
for it all that the Nationals clam
for their party is too fresh before US all to
permit this generation to be led astray. The
people who are suffering from the corrupt
rule of the party TO which Kortrecht and
Pierce belong know that they can get what
they wish sooner, more surely and more COM
pletely at the hands OF the Democratic party
than from the Nationals, whose communistic
tendencies make them more dangerous than
even the Radicals The path TO success for all
that is valuaolein the National platform lies
within the Democratic domain. Then how
appropriate is the question: How long
would it take the National party, or any
other third party, TO carry as many States as
are now IN the possession OF the Democracy?
