IN MEMORIAM.

On Thursday, NoYemper the 9Th at Terry.
abaut o'clock in the evening, the spirit of
little Ida DAVIS, of the sprightiest
brightest and sweetest little girls of our town,
winged its way TO its eternal home, where
the angels of pure delight welcomed it with
joy, and was crowned with a crown of glary
by Him. who is Lord of ALL
When the old Scared veterans of life, hav-
ing fought the good fight, and worn out with
its many battles, lay down in death to die,
it is comforting to think, though connected
with doubts and fears, that
There is a rest for weary pilgrims found,
But when the young the pure the innocent
who have not entered into these struggles,
who are unstained and uneontami nated with
the contact of the world aud sin, whose soul is
yet fresh and pure as God breathed it into the
body, are called upon to lay down that tender
tenement of clay, thGn there are no doubts
nor fears, but the comforting consolation is
complete, that they sweetly sleep u tic arms
of Jesus"
Safe in the arms of Jesus
Safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love Ger shaded
Sweetly the soul shall rest.
And though we miss her sweet prattiine
talk and the sound of the never firing foot
steps shah fall upon our ears again; and
though we shall never see those sparkling
blue eyes brighten with JOY, and hear the
merry psals of innocent and JOYOUS laughter
though it is so hard to give her mp, yet,
why should our tears in sorrow flow,
When God recalls his own,
And bids them leave world of woe,
For an immortal crown ?"
She 'sweetly sleeps in the arms of Jesus, y
free from toll, free from care, from trouble
Friends parents, would you take her back
from that beautiful shore
There fragrant flowers immortal bloom,
And joys supreme are given.
Ida was four years old, the only child of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. J. Davis; she was sick hgt .
short time, and not known to he dangerous gill
little while hefaEe her death. She was the
pet Of the town, and the idol of her parents.
She was buried in q beautiful white casket
in the public cemetery at this place.

The Contested Election Cases.

Squire Lewis Court, which has been
grinding along upon the contested election
cases, few miles east of this city, for the
past ten days, had just succeeded in getting
full ury yesterday morning-and by the
way, through the untiring energy of the
counsel for defendants, very good jury 1t
was too-came suddenly to halt, ard the
three hundred colored Radical Greenbackers
who had been summoned to testify "long
and strong" for the good of the party were
sent home much to their disappointment
The reason for the sudden stoppage of the
high old court was a writ of prohibition
from Justice II. H. Chalmers. In fact the
court had been sat down on and ''squshed."
The case will therefore have to be tried first
before Judge Calhoon in the Circuit Court
to see whether the Magistrates Court was
running in accordance with the law
or not. If it should be decided
that it was, then Squire Lewis Court
and Jury will take the case up where they
left off, that is, provided no appeal is taken
to the Supreme Court. If decided that the
machine was not running smooth and nice,
that ends the matter. In any event, how
ever, the case will not return to Squire
Lewis court until some time in latter part
say of 1881. And in the meantime the
court will not be Squire Lewis for his term
of office expires December 31st, 1879.
