ON HIS EAR.
A Former Mempllian Distin-
cuisines Himself at LeadvIlle.

The following from last Saturdays
Globe Democrat is a portion of a
special from Leadville, and refers to a
gentleman who was formerly the re-
publican sheriff of Shelby county:
AT the Grant reception last night,
A. p. Curry, who by mistake was
placed in charge of the reception,
attempted to clear the speakers
stand, occupied by several repre-
sentatives of the local press and
correspondents, among the former
being the city editor of the Chron-
icle, Mr.. Fred +. Schraeder. The
reporters presented their claims,
but Curry hustled them indis-
criminately down che steps, say
ing he did not recognize the
press, Mr.. Schraeder again as
ceuded the steps, and when ordered
of a second time, refused to 20.
Curry caught him by one ear and
succeeded in drawing him to the head
OF the steps, when Schrader turned,
backed by the crowd, and laughed at
Curry. A fight ensued, in which Cur
ry struck Schrader over the head with
the butt end of a loaded whip and
pushed him down, but in attempting
to carry out his design of beating him
several Of the crowd rushed at Curry
and tried to mob him, which he barely
escaped, others interfering in the
fight. Several respectable ladies on
the stand were severely jOstled by
Curry, who, in his frantic madness,
raised his whip to them. The affair
has disgraced him in the eyes of all
citizens, and be will be called upon to
resign charge oi the reception, a step
vigorously advocated by the morning
papers.

On Tuesday evening last, between

and all rushed frantically out, to De-
hold large fame rushing up from

time We could reach the sDet the fire
had got under good headway, and it
was plainly to be seen that there was
no possible way of checking it, so all

task, as there was nothing but
benches, and they were securely fast.

this, goodly portion of those on the
lower floor were saved. No one dared
to venture up stairs.
1t was soon evident that the little
brick church, which stood beside the
flaming college must 60 too. So it was
likewise stripped of all moveables.
1t took but very short time to en-
tirely consume both building. All
who arrived in time worked manfully,
and have the sincere thanks of the
church.
The loss was near $1,000. Insur-
ance, $3100.
This misfortune comes upon our
people like lightning fro m clear sky.
From all surrounding circumstances
it was evidently the work of an in
condiary, but all shrink from accus-
ing, even their worst enemy of so vile
a deed. Could the slightest clue be
obtained, the people would willingly
give halt they are worth to have it
followed up and bring the demon to
justice, 1t is evidently a death blow
to the institutional this place, being
the second occurrence of this kind.

democracy of the state are united
more absolutely perhaps than they
could have been on any other ticket,
save, Of course, one headed by Mr..
Hendricks. Hancock though an
eastern man, is absolutely unobjec-
tiOnable, and the compliment paid to
Indiana in the nomination of Mr..
English is another strong reason for
democratic unanimity there. Mr..
English is highly respected by our
people and deservedly popular. Be-
sides he has been out of politics., as
the phrase is, for many years. That
is to say he has not been candidate
for any office. Nevertheless, he has
not ceased to take a lively interest in
political affairs. So that, while he
has not been identified with any of
the recent party feuds, local or other
wise, which might have created against
him personal heartburning or party
jealousy, the people have always
known where to find him." Mr..
English's Nomination is satisfactory
to Mr.. Hendricks ?" Entirely.

KING COTTON.
How the Wayward Sisters show
up In the Census Returns.

Cincinnati Times-Star.
The forthcoming census report will
be very interesting document in
many respects. 1t will be especially
Interesting in the information it will
give as to the cotton interest of the
states of the south, of which this
great staple is the chief production.
These states are Alabama, Arkansas
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Missis-
sippi, North Carolina, South Carolina.
Tennessee and Texas. The popula-
tiOn Of those states in 1870 was
a little over eight and quar-
ter millions, that the war left i'm
poverished, and in many cases loaded
down with debt, and with their
labor system prostrated and over
turned. From this condition. to
which the financial depression of 1873,
that existed everywhere, north and
south added ten-fold severity, the
south has for the past two or three
years been slowly but surely emerg-
ing. The year 1873 was the beginning
Of a genuine revival for them, and
1879 was the brightest since before
the war. For the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1879, when something like
1000, 600 bales of cotton were raised
these ten states having one-ffth the
population OF the United States, con
tributed more than % per cent of the
domestic exports OF the country. For
the past year the best estimates make
the cotton crop of the south 5,600,OO0
bales, worth at fair estimate not less
than $225, 100000, which vast sum was
pouredinto the waste place ofthe above
ten states in coin. The extent of cotton
planted this year embraces an acreage
probably ten per cent greater than
last year, and the state of business
warrants usi in claiming that the re-
muneratiye prices of last season will
be maintained. If this view is cor
rect the ten southern states of the
south will derive revenue from this
one staple, when harvested and mar
keted, of some $250000000.
There are valuable fields of vast
cotton land remaining undeveloped in
all these ten states of the south that
only await the laborer to produce; aud
this staple the United States seem to
possess a climate and soil fitted to
yield more abundantly, better and
more cheaply than any other country
on the globe.
What is there, therefore, to hinder
the south from becoming the equal in
population and wealth of the rapidly
settling northwest, whose fields, it is
true, are yellow with ripening grain,
but where it is impossible for cotton
plant to grow?

room, he was presented with the mag.
nihcent sum of one guinea, and the
thanks Of the Duchess of Kent for

that this is an acquittance, and you
are not to make any further appeal to

THE course of Chancellor Mellow
ell and Judge Horrigan in abstaining
frcm making a personal canvass meets
the hearty appreciation ofall thought
tul men. Both these gentlemen are
on the bench now, and they respect
and understand the prOprieties of
thcir positions too well to come down
and enter upon handshaking tour
nament to secure reelection. For
this they deserve all praise. In their
hands the ermine will not be exposed
to the mud and mire of local politics.
The man who can make the best
stump speech or do the most pleasant
talking on the street corner, is not
necessarily or naturally the right man
to place in the seat of Judge, and de-
termine questions involving property
and life, law and order. Judges Nc.
Dowell and Horrigan command
the respect of all intelligent
men, irrespective of party. The
democratic party put these men
forward because they are honest,
competent and incorruptible. Judge
Horrigan, his opponents say, com
manded colored troops during the war.
We do not know how this was, nor is
it matter of any consequence now
He was certainly considered repub-
lican for many years, but he proved to
be a gentleman and a cool, courageous
lawyer, who could be depended upon
to do exact justice and to interpret
and apply the law impartially. The
party asks nothing more in a
judge. The democratic party does
not elect judges to give democratic
decisions, whilst on the other hand
the republican party has prostituted
and debased every seat of justice that
it controls. Judge Mcdowell was
formerly more of a politician and took
an active and influential part in some
elections when he felt. that duty re-
quired it. But on the bench he de-
votes himself entirely to the duties
of his high position. He desires re =.
election, but not at the expense of
self-respecu or the good opinion of the
law-abidinge gelements of society. These
gentlemen are not strangers their
record for fifteen years past on the
bench and off in public and in private
is known and cannot be successfully
assailed. They have acquitted them
selves with the highest credit as judges
and their places cannot be filled by
better or more acceptable men.

COLONEL Bigelow waved the bloody
shirt with surprising vigor last night
for man of his venerable years. The
colonel gets excited when he talks
about the politics of 1856 in Michi-
gan when he was only middle aged
man and could take an active part.
He says no democrat holds Office in
Michigan, that being a republican
state, worlds without end, and hold
ing up his right hand and
left leg, he hoped to God" they
never would. According to this logic
no republican ought to be allowed to
hold Office in Tennessee, for this state
is democratic by an overwhelming
majority, and has been ever since the
one hundred thousand white men that
Judge Bigelow and his friends would
have kept disfranchised until now,
could regain their right to vote. The
judge is stalwart of the
puritan brand and would be a
nice man to sit in judgment on the
rights of people that he denOunces
by wholesale as rebels and traitors,
entitled to no mercy. He seems to be
a dead match for the late Judge Hun
ter, who imprisoned Colonel Gallo
way for contempt OF court, which
was shared in feeling by large por-
tion of the community.
