This is brave talk; but does it real
~ mean anything? Some citizens Of
Jefferson county. Miss, recently got
together and condemned bulldozing
declaring that "all persons engaged
therein must desist from the perpetra-
tion of such unlawful acts, or else, We
the People. will speak in tones that
shall not be unheard." The only avail
able and successful labor in the coun-
try, they acknowledge, is the negro;
and it may be that they find it losing
business to Cypress and drive him out.
Let us hope that they Will conclude to
peacefully accord him his rights under
the law.

Washington dispatches state that
the nomination of Prof. j. w. Hoyt,
of Madison, as Governor of Wyom-

up for consideration in the Senate.
It is understood that the committee
has agreed to report adversely.
There is no reason why he should
not be confirmed except that Thay-
er, the present Governor, is suspend
ed and is a good man. He is an ex.
Senator, too, and that has great
weight with the body.

does not seem to be exactly the thing.

The CHOLERA IN ARABIA.-The
deaths by cholera in the city of Mecca,
between December 4 and January IL,
numbered 1856, and the total of deaths
in that period was 1882. The great
mortality is, of course, chiefly due to
the privations and physical weakness
of the pilgrims, but it also shows that
the material was at hand for a much
greater spread of the epidemic. At
Jeddah nearly 100 persons died of
cholera 10 week, about the first of
this year. The disease has also made
its appearance sporadically among the
land caravans at great distances. IF
it should get start in Turkey, there
would be danger Of its rapid progress
among the starving and destitute pop
ulations that have been driven out of
their homes by the ravages of war.
With regard to the possibility of the
spread OF cholera in Europe, it is to
be considered that hitherto it has
always followed the main lines of travel,
aud the overland commerce between
Turkey and Der European borders is
not now SO large as to offer probable
path for the disease, while the quarau-
tine systems of the Mediterranean
nations will be likely to prevent its ap-
proach by water routes.

A DEAD MIsER's MoNEY.--The
fight over the estate of Tulls, the de-
ceased millionaire, of Cincinnati, is
beginning in dead earnest at the
threshold of the case. The attorneys
for the heirs at-law, Tullis' sisters, are
doing everything in their power to
prevent the estate getting into the
hands of Floyd, the person mentioned
in the will as executor. Floyd, an
ignorant potato peddler and hay-hauler,
who lived on Tullis' farm, has qualified
as administrator, and unless the in
junction asked for in court is granted
he will come into immediate poss ession
Of an estate worth not less than
s2,5OO,COO. The promptness with
which his bond was filled up, and
certain other circumstances connected
with the case, creates the belief that
Floyd is merely a tool of designing
lawyers in pursuit OF the millions.
The will in which he was named as
executor was subsequently revoked,
but on the statement of Alexander
Long, attorney, that the revocation
was not in Tullis' hand writing, the
court set it aside aud admitted the
will to probate A close estimate of
the real estate involved gives it at over
100000 acres, located in nearly all
the States ia the Union.
