A CORRESPONDENT suggests that
the national committee should re-
lease Mr.. John Powell from his pledge
to support that ticket and leave him
free to appear before the democratic
convention. How they and Mr,
Powell will regard this, we do not
know, but we do believe that all the
opponents to the radical nom
inee for sheriff will unite upon
some one man, whether he be ma
tional democrat or a democratic ma
tional. There is no occasion for any
bad feeling or for ill-natured remarks.
The partition between the nationals
and democrats is rather thin. Our
national brethren have all been dem
ocrats, and the most Of them are so
vet when it comes down TO the test.
They have beenrecruited entirely from
the democratic party; some of them
greenback ideas are very good, we
will not quarrel about that. We have
no complaint to make of any class, ex-
cept the few who are so welded to
their own notions, hopes and fates
that they would not yield an inch to
avert the calamity which threatens
Shelby county. Let common sense
prevail, all the law abiding elements
arc deeply interested in the election of
agood man for sheriff. This can be done
without any humiliating compromises
or aversiOns. The grsepbaOk question
has very little to do with the election
of "a sheriff. That issue can be fought
ought next November if necessary, or
some other time. The democrats can
cast Eve or six thousand votes
at the August election, and
have a right through their delegates
and at the ballot box to a voice in
this matter, and we presume it will be
expressed.

LITTLE ROCK.
A Few Words About the City of
Roses.

A few days since member of the
LEDGER staff made a short visit to
Little Rock, to renew acquaintances
witness the celebration II the "Glo.
rious Fourth" and to have a little
recreation. After passing over the
Memphis and Little Rock road, which
is in fine condition, we arrived at our
journeys end at midnight and on
time. Along the route many passen-
gers came aboard, so that. upon ar
irving at Little Rock, our train was
crowded. The majority were attracted
to the City Of Roses to witness the
grand display of fireworks gotten I'D
by General Peter Tracy, of this city.
The town was thronged with people
from all parts of the state, and Little
Rock presented lively appearance
When the writer first visited that
city, ten years ago, the population
numbered barely 5000 souls: but far.
seeing individuals prophesied rapid
growth OF the town, and an influx of
northern people and capital. Their
predictions have been verified, for
to-day Little Rock has population
Of not less than $1,000, and with
fair prospects of doubling this
number in the next ten years
Many Of the one-story frame houses
which lined Main and Markham. the
two principal streets of the city, have
been torn down, and in their places
handsome bricks several stories in
height have been built. 1t is estim-
ated that at least six hundred build
ings are being erected at the present
time. Little Rock is bound to spread
herself, and ere long will no doubt
become a rival of Memphis. The
people Of the City of Roses ale noted for
their sociability, for which they have
gained very extensive reputation.
Little Rock also boasts of local dra-
matte troupe of no small talents. A
few days ago they played the drama of
Ten Nights in a Bar-roOm, and
performed well, receiving the ap-
plause of the astonished audience.
Among other fine buildings may be
mentioned the churches, which, as a
general thing, have been constructed
in fine style, as well as for comfort.
The streets are in good condition, and
everything presents healthy appear
ance. The politics of the city have
changed wonderfully. Instead Of being
governed by set of thieves. who were
sucking the very life blood of the city.
aud building houses and making 9th
er improvements, using the peoples
money for their individual gratifca-
tion, they have honest men at the
mead of the government,who are doing
what they think is best for the pub
lie welfare, and to induce immigration
Little Rock is up to the times, and all
kinds Of amusements are to be found
there during their season. The chief
attraction on Saturday last was the
pyrotechnic display given by Professor
Jackson, of Philadelphia, under the
management of General Peter Tracy,
who had spent three weeks in perfect
ing arrangements for creditable dis
play. An enclosure was put up at the
head Of Main street, into which a
couple of thousand people gathered to
get a full view of the display. Every
thing passed off quietly, and all were
pleased with the exhibition of Tracy's
fire works.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Boiler Explosion, killing Five
and WOunding Four Persons.

DUNKRK, o., July IA horrible

literally torn out and found at the

Geo. Pisle was also instantly killed.

Tammamy Tanned.

The democratic ratification meeting
at Tammany hall this evening is re-
markable as being the first occasion in
four years that has witnessed the
Kelly and Irving hall factions occu-
pying one and the same platform to.
getherin apparent harmony. 1t is by
no means a certainty yet, however
that the reunion on the national
ticket is to include the municipa
nominations. Negotiations to that
effect are at this moment pending
but with what result remains to BE-
seen. The vast patronage Of city
government which annually spend,
S3O,0OO,0O0, and which keeps con
stantly in pay an army Of not far from
ten thousand Office holders, is some
thing worth contending for, and, i
there is to be any arrangement made
for reunion on the local nominations
it will have to be on the basis of an
equitable division of the Spoils.

against so grievous misfortune, Our
evils in time past have beeen mani
fold, our sufferings immense. Spare
us this modification for the sake Of all
that is just and good. As the matters
now stand, the candidacy of John
Powell against your nominee can re-
suit only in the defeat of both, and
the inevitable election of Shaw-a
blatant, biggoted pesky, pothouse
politician. who has never been known
to have had any other employment,
and who is without capacity for the
place in any respect. 1t is we'll known
that Powell has a personal following
independent Of the strength which his
nomination by the nationals may bring
to him. As to his fitness for the office
there can be no serious question. Let
not the fact Of his wearing the liable
OF another party prevent your consid-
GRAFTON Of his claims. Instead of his
Withdrawing, as feelingly suggested by
the Avalanche, by "Junius." let him
rather be invited to come before you
and submit his claims. By this course
he has nothing to lose, but all to gain,
and it alike commends itself to your
good sense and patriotism.
Will not the national committee,
having the good of the country at
heart, and moved by the lofty incen-
tive Of sparing us the deplorable afllic-
tion of Shaw's election, gladly absolve
Mr.. Powell from obligations to them
which might embarrass him before
you, | am not advised as to what
Mr.. PowePs views are, but it seems to
me that the occasion appeals to him
as much to submit his claims, as to
you to consider them.

Id to a strict accOuntabiIity

The rumor at Washington men
toned in our dispatches that Gen.
Hancock will probably resign as
major general before he accepts the
nomination for president is doubtless
supported by the wishes of republi-
can opponents or others who would
bc benefited by the change. He has
spoken of retiring before, if we mis-
take not, but not Of re-
signing. The stalwarts would
be glad to get rid of him even
until the fourth of March. lie is the
only general of the army who uncon-
ditionally respects the court law as
above the military. Ills position in
this respect is anomolous. He is not
under any obligation to resign; no
precedent requires it; the people do
not require it. AS proof he will be
elected, Garfield has not resigned as
senator elect, but when defeated,
as he doubtless will be, he
will go in and take his seat with
the minority, meanwhile he holds on
as a member of congress and will draw
his salary as usual. A sense of deli.
cacy may prompt General Hancock to
resign, but he can hold on without
impropriety or the loss Of a vote on
that account.
