Endorsement on its back: "This letter
was handed to me by the postmaster. If

anything you may desire in reference to
Harry Bowdin." By way of excuse for
this act of meanness, Mr.. Barnes says
that "the lawyers of Memphis have been
flooded since the epidemic with inquiries
in reference to persons who died, their
families and their estates" but it appears
that this Barnes is the first of the profes-
sioa who was an aspirant for the kind of
fame he has achieved.

SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PAPERS
1.-THE Volksfreund, Dem.l

The Board of Pubic Works has been
abolished. A new Board is to be created
similar to the defunct one. The members
are to be appointed by the Judge of the Po,
lice Court. The city is to be divided into
| five districts and each district will be under
the supervision of one of the members.
They will also have seats in both branches
of Council but they will have no vote.
The veto power, which the old Board en-.
joyed has been taken away from the new
one. Under the law a number of subordi-
nate officers will be considered as super,
huous, and a saving of $4,000 per annum
will be made.
We hope and wish that the Police Judge
may appoint FIVE able and efficient men as
the Board, some who will reduce our taxes
and give us more light and cheaper water.

The Lord bill aholshing the Board of

House of Representatives made a law by a
vote of So to 45. We have frequently given
our opinions about overthrowing city
boards and the ensuing results The thing
is Il nuisance, one that creates nothing but
endless confusion. 1t is moreover a nom
sensical custom for the party holding the
city government reins, that bears no fruit
for any length of time. 1t is only u

be blamed. One follows the example OF the

FHE noble State Of Kentucky has late
~ suffered much unmerited odium, by
reason of accidents arising from pre-
mature and otherwise inopportune Gel
bbration of the Fourth of July by her
patriotic citizens. The frequency of
these melancholy occurrences has led
some of the more thoughtful members Of
her press and bar to deplore the custom
of celebrating the birthday of our in
dependence on other than the earlier
days of July, especially where the instru-
ments of jubilation are either double
barreled shot guns revolvers or bowie
knives. Neither are they prepared to
declare their unqualified approval of the
custom of testing these martial equip.
ments in crowded thoroughfares, court
houses or public assemblages of any kind,
during such time, as the condition Of
public sentiment outside of the State re,
mains unchanged.

Judicial Sy MpathX.


Recently suit was tried before an In
diana Justice of the Peace wherein a
lady was plaintiff, and bank defendant
The evidence showed conclusively that
the fair plaintiff had no right to recover;
of this no one could have the shadow
of doubt" Her learned counsel knew
well that unless he could get the sympa-
thy of the Squire" his client would
have "lost cause" He therefore la
bored hard in applying the Sympathetic
process" He gushed with eloquence of
great warmth in referring to his clients
rights, until finally great tears came
trickling down his cheeks, at the sight
of which the Justice (who was very
tender-hearted individually was also
moved to tears. This salts,
fed the attorney that the SYM
pathy of the Court was in behalf of the
lady, and he closed his argument by say
ing, 'It does my heart good to believe
that this honorable Court, in the exercise
of sound discretion, will not allow the
rights of a pure and noble lady to be
trampled beneath the cloven feet of q
soulless corporations" and took his seat
as confident that he would get a judg
ment as ever poor Miss Elite was.
Thereupon the squire rendered the
following comprehensive and satisfactory
decision. He said: "The plaintiff in this
case is a woman, and her counsel has fol
the last hour touched the sympathy Of
the Court in her behalf, and / am glad
of it; but ] think, under the law, thai
Justice is on the side of the bank.
therefore will find in the favor of the
bank, and let the record show that Mrs
= has the full sympathy Of the Court.

So insidious are the first approaches OF
consumption, that thousands remain un-
conscious of its presence until it has
brought them to the verge of the grave. An
immediate resort to DR.. ID. Jayne's Expec.
torant upon the first appearance of cough,
pain, or soreness OF the throat or chest,
would very generally preclude a fatal re-
suit, or in case the symptoms indicate the
presence of latent consumption, would tend
to subdue the violence Of the disease, and
thus materially assist in prolonging the Life
OF the patient Use the Expectorant there

prevent the necessity for its use in more
