A STRICKEN CITY.

The Holly Springs South, Colonel
Tyler's paper, comes tous thisweek as q
half sheet, draped IN deep black lines,
which tell of the march of the plague,
the desolation of beautiful, happy
homes. Holly Springs was the seat of
culture of able men, and famous for
wealth and beautiful women long be-
fore the war, and of late years more
than held her own. But the best have
fallen before the remorseless epidemic,
and looking over the long list of the
dead we almost wonder who is left.
Many names, illustrious names, APP
pear, men who were conspicuous in
war and in high civil positions. The
old and the young and beautiful, the
gifted and the humble met one common
fate. From August 25th to Novem-
Der 9th there were three hundred and
one (30l) deaths in the city, nearly all
from yellow fever, and nearly all old
residents of the place. A larger pro-
portion of colored people died than in
Memphis. When it is considered that
the place was almost depopulated,
only a few hundred people remain
ing, some idea Of the fearful rate
of mortality may be formed.
The prominent families suffered terri
bly,. Colonel w. ii. Walter, one Of
the leading men of the place and one
of the most gifted in the State, died,
and was quickly followed to the grave
by his three elder sons who had just
graduated at the Mississippi Univer-
sity. Colonel Il. w. Upshaw, Major
Kinlock Falconer, secretary of state,
Howard Falconer, and their venera-
BILE father, Thomas Falconer, Colonel
w. j. L. Holland, editor of the Re
porter, and many other prominent and
well-known people, are numbered
among the dead. Their loss will be
felt for a generation to come. While
suffering so terribly ourselves we have
sympathy to spend and tears to shed
for others who are sorely bereaved,
The miseries of others were not for
gotten, even in our darkest days, and
some aid was distributed from here to
the sufferers elsewhere. The generous
aid of the whole country enabled
Memphis to relieve many other places.
Tho caIamitieS through which we have
passed have bound men together by
stronger ties Of humanity, Of love and
duty than ever before, and we feel
now that every man is our neighbor
and brother.

Ireland TO be Annexed to the
United States.

Washington Posts interview with Condor.
On his return from the dining-room
Mr.. Condor greeted a Post reporter
and talked at some length with the
representative.
What is the object of your visit,
Mr.. Condon?" said the Post.
II want to thank the government
for the interest that was manifested in
my welfare, and the efforts exerted to
secure my release. / have not done so
yet, and ! consider it debt Of honor
to be paid. '4
What is the programme of your
visit?"
Il suppose | will call on Mr.. Hayes
tomorrow. | will visit the objects of
interest in the city tomorrow and Sat
urday and on Monday leave for Detroit,
where the citizens tender me recep-
ton on Wednesday.
What Of the Fenian movement?'
Its prospects are bright. The
complications in Europe are favorable
for it, and the time is ripe for some
general determined movement. Ireland
has been degraded and her people
made to suffer This state of things
cannot last. Moral suasion has been
tried over and over again, and failed
physical force must now be the means
employed"
What Of. Ireland's future?'
II firmly believe that the time is not
far distant when Ireland will ask to
be annexed to the United States, and
becoms a part of this government.
England is afraid that should anything
of this kind happen, and the Irish
people make another strike for theii
rights, the United States will take the
part of Ireland anduphold her in the
struggle. "

why, take New York State, for
instance they make such howl
about their victory there in congress
sional elections, when the fact is, New
York is so apportioned that if the
State went Democratic by 10000 the
majority of the congressional delega-
tion could be Republicans. Then
there's Pennsylvania; ii was always a
Republican State, and, if it hadn't
been for the split in the Democratic
party over the money question, this
year might have told different tale.
In Massachusetts, there was also a
split in the party, which accounts for
the way things went there, In fact,
in every State that went Republican
the Democrats were divided; so that
can't see where the great victory Of
Republicanism over Democracy comes
in"

The Richest Jockey in America.

New York Sun.l
In a walk through the stables in the
afternoon Mr.. Pierre Lorillard asked
for Barrett, one of his jockeys. The
answer was that Barrett had grown too
heavy to ride, his weight being 1l5
pounds. This surprised, not only Mr..
LOrillard, but all who heard it, as
Barrett weighed only ~ pounds in
Baltimore. 1t was further ascertain
ed that Barrett had been starving him
self all the season to keep down to the
required weight, and that such vas
the custom of all jockeys. When they
quit riding they become heavy very
rapidly. Barrett is the richest jockey
in America, being worth at least
10000. and there is but one other
richer Jockey in the world Archer
of England.
