$1,000 Reward Offered For the Capture OF
the Assassin.

81, 900 Reward Offered For the Capture of
the Assassin.
A large number of the citizens of Austin have
very properly united in offering a reward Of
81, 900 for the arrest of the assassin who at
TEN pied to take the life of Judge Page in
that city few days ago. The offer is as
follows:
$1,000 REWARD.
A reward of 81 ,OOo one thousand dollars will be
paid to any person for the detection and arrest of
the assassin who attempted to take the life of Judge
Sherman Page on Tuesday evening, August "a, 1880,
or for evidence that will lead to his apprehension or
conviction.

1t is notable that none of the usual officials
who act in cases of gross violation of law
have offered any reward, or manifested any in
terest in the capture of the would-be murderer.
Gov. Pillsbury, who ought to offer 81, 900 re-
ward, is strangely silent. He is evidently
afraid that he may expose some Republicans in
good party standing. He undoubtedly would
do so, but it is pitiful spectacle when the
governor of State will abandon his constitu-
ency to assassins lest he may disclose politi-
cal murderer who affiliates with his (the govern.
or's) party.

the Republican nominee for Congress from the
Eighth district and who is now on the stump

Great Democratic Meeting in Columbus

The Republicans Elect an Alderman.
Th4rn.a,,'s Speech at Columbus.

TEturn.a,a's Speech at Columbus.
COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 3.-The Democratic
| meeting in Capitol square tonight was a
very large and imposing one. The Hancock
and English clubs from the various wards pa
raded the principal streets amid fire works
and colored lights and then marched to Capitol
square, where the scene was very attractive
one. At s O'Clock the meeting was called to
order, with Senator Thurman president. The
president was then introduced, and. after the
cheering had subsidized, said:
"Fellow citizens, my first duty is to return
my thanks to your committee for the honor of
being allowed the honor to preside over this
great meeting. Is is, however. no part
of my function tonight to make speech;
address you and it would be neither proper or
polite to occupy the time which has been
allotted to them. Still I must make few
brief remarks relative to the somewhat
singular sight which will be presented to your
vision this evening. Tonight you will be
permitted to listen to three Brigadier gener-
ais, two Of whom were in the Union army,
while one Of them, General hooker, OF Mias1s-
sippi, was in the confederate army-but who
at the end of the war recognized that secession
was put down forever, and one who determined
henceforth to forever support the stars and
stripes, and who has always since been a true
Union man. This sight is an index OF what
will prevail all over the Union when Winfield
8. Hancock is elected. The greatest reasons for
the eleotion of that great man to be
President is the presence OF the
greatest danger which has ever
happened to our land, that was this question
Of sectionalism. Washington referred to 1t in
his farewell address. For fifteen years the
Republican leaders have by their words and
acts made tue South solid. They do not now
desire to change this result, for they feel that
they can by this means make solid North and
so perpetuate their power in 1efninitely. This
has made many of the northern men fairly
hate the South, but this year the section is to
be rebuked by the grace of God and the cleo.
ton of General Hancock. When this or at
and good man takes his seat,
and he will take it if elect
ed, (great cheers) then you will see
the exit of the bloody shirt, and obedience
to the constitution. Then you will see one Of
the greatest nations that ever lived united as
one people, as brothers. IF Gen. Garfield
should be elected, it will be by the votes of the
North, and he will of necessity be the Republic.
can representative of but one section, and OF
one country. But Hancock votes will come
from the North, South, East, and West. He
will take his place as the President of the
whole, and not less than half of our people.
Again I thank you sincerely. The meeting
was then addressed by Gen. Morgan, Gen.
Hooker, and Gen. Robt. Mitchell.

Terrible Hurricane In Jamaica.

NEW YORK, Sept 3.-The Star and Herald
of Panama has just received the story of g
disastrous hurricane which swept Jamaica on
the night of August 18th.
The wind ragged with such fury at the begin
ming that street cars had to cease running.
Vessels have been sunk and driven ashore,
wharves destroyed, roofs blown of, trees up
rooted and catalogue of other damages which
it is impossible to estimate. Not single
coaster in Kingston roads escaped in safety,
Twenty-seven vessels, brigs, barks, ETC., were
driven ashore and went to pieces. at the
docks every wharf but one is blown away and
the beach is strewn with cargoes of vessels.
Many seamen are missing, and they are sup
posed to have persisted.
All the penitentiary vessels foundered and
those at Port Royal sustained considerable
damage. The loss on land is roughly estimated
at 100000.
The cocoanut trees were all snapped in pieces.
Strong and substantial houses fell before the
fury of the wind, to say nothing of the ten
aments of the poorer classes, and the streets
and lanes are
ERIGHTFUL TO LOOK UPON.
All Mantown, Brownstown, Passmoretown
Hannahstown, Smiths village and Fletcher
land suffered severely. School houses were
leveled and churches chapels and synagoguef
went down in the gale. The banana crop if
DESTROYED, and trees Of all kinds vanished.
Three severe earthquake shocks were felt dur
ing the storm, and the cries and screams of the
people rushing from their falling dwellings
were frightful to hear. A few small tenements
at Matthias Corners and as far as Augustien
were blown away. Tenements in other places
shared similar fate. Communication with
country points is cut off. No kilograms can be
sent from Kingston, the. wires being all
snapped. Trains could not pass, Rio Cobre
bridge having bursted. When the storm was
at its height boards, trees, sheds, shingles,
household furniture, ETC.. were rushing through
the air with lightning like rapidity, while fam
lilies were flying from house to house, seeking
refuge. The roads are impossible for carriages
and dangerous to pedestrians. Nearly the
great want will be felt among the peasantry.
