JUDGE SCULL.

Judge Wm. E. Scull, who was carried to his last resting place yes. terday, died the day before at the residence of his relative. Chancellor b. W. Carroll, in this city, after q lingering sickness. Judge Scull, or as he was known familiarity among his friends, Bill Scull was forneri y prominent citizen of Jefferson county. Marrying afterwards the eldest daughter ofCol. Sam Reyburn, of Hot Spring county, he removed there, and for many years has been citizen of that county. His own as well as the family into which he married, were of the most respecta- ble in the state. When he died he was one of the few survivors of the good old times when 1t took a brave man to win a fair bride. Judge Scull was an honest, upright man, popular in his manners, devoted to his friends and generous and chari- table to all. He filled his place in this worthily, always doing faith fully the duty before him. By the few who remember him in his haley on days the announcement of his death will be keenly felt. All who know him at all will mourn his loss as that of a good citizen, a true friend and liberal hearted gentle man.-Arkansas Daily Gazette.
 The deceased was one Of the early friends of the senior editor of the RusselIville DEMOCRAT and it is with sorrow that we receive this sad in- telligence. Memories of the long, long ago are revived, and we are re- minded of the dear old friends of our youthful days.

ADDRESS
Of the National Democratic
 Committee.

Of the National Democratic Committee
 The following has been issued by the national democratic committee: To the Democratic and Conssrva-
 tive Voters Of the country:
 The election Of president and vice president is now before you. State and local dissentions are eliminated from the issues of the day. The magnitude of a victory or defeat can only be estimated by the forces and means employed in securing it. By fraud and corruption the people Of the country were defeated in their purpose in 1876, and the rightfully elected president kept from office. With the combined capital of the republican party, aided by repeated assessmentssupon an army of office holders; with the power of the fedsr- al government represented by Uni ted States marshals at the polls; with intimidation, fraud and a resort to every corrupt appliance known to republican methods concentrated in two states, our adyersaries have succeeded in procuring the probable return of their local candidates. Can it be possible that in every state throughout this great land the same methods can be brought to bear that were used by the republican mana gers in Indiana and OhioS Can the great states of New York, New Jersy, Connecticut, California, Colorado, Nevada and New Hampshire be boughtf Even without the vote Of Indiana, which we believe will be redeemed in November, with New York and New Jersey and the states that are conceded to us, including Maine, the election of our candidate is assured. The repuplican party have put in nomination for president and vice president two men who, by the admission of their own party and press, are unworthy of your confidence and your suffrages. It is impossible that fifty millions of intelligent and patriotic people will consent to place themselves upon the humiliating level thus prepared for them by the republican mana gers. Fellow citizens, the first days rspulse at Gettysburg ended on the third, with Hancock in the front in a glorious victory, and that victory secured us our union. The quss- ton is not now the preservation of the union, but of constitutional gov ernment. Hancock is now, as then, in the front; the repulse Is now, as then, the omen of a victory which will secure coming generations the inestimable blessings of civil liberty.
 By order of the national demo cratic committee.
 [Signed Wv. H. BARNUM,
 Chairman.

FREEMEN AWAKE!

Next Tuesday, the 2d day Of No vember, is the day of election for six presidential electors and for repre- sentatives to the congress of the United States. We cannot too ur- gently appeal to the democracy to be at the polls in full force. Besides the great and important necessity of electing our democratic ticket there is another important feature in con
 nectlon which should induce every democrat to go and to vote; and that is that the basis of representation in our next state convention will be fixed upon the vote cast for presi- dent at this election and we earnest ly advise and enjoln upon our Pope county democrats not to remain at home on that day and reduce her representation in the next state con.

The republicans, encouraged by ths apparent success of the green back party, are making desperate effort to capture three of the foer congressman of this state. If they succeed it will not be from overpow- eriDg numbers, but from the sheer indifference of democrats. With this fact so plain, so palpable, so self evident, can any democrat having the success of bis party Or the good of the country at heart, absent him. self from his polling place next Tuesday, and thus indirectly agsis: the republicans and greenbackers in foisting upon democratic district republican whose record is as black as repuDlicanism itself!
