A Most Shocking Murder.

On Tuesday last, Mr.. Leonard
Mathis, one of the Oldest and most
highly respected citizens of this coun-
ty, was killed at his home in the nor.
thern part Of the county, by his grand
son, John l.. Mathis. The murderer
is son of DIR. Mathis, who recently
moved to Texas, and left his son, john
L., in charge Of his plantation aud
vineyard. This place is adjoining the
farm Of NJ. Leonard Mathis. 1t seems
that the Doctor had given MIR. Mathis
(his father permission to get stove
wood upon the land, Of which John l..
had charge. On Tuesday, John L.,
being drunk, (Which is no uncommon
thing OF late) tcld one of the employees
of Mr.. Leonard Mathis that no one
should get wood from the farm of
which he had charge-that he was
running that concern himself. John
L. shortly after this went to the house
of his grandfather. and told the old
gentleman that he should not get any
more wood from the farm. Mr. Mathis
replied to John, that the Doctor had
given him permission to get the wood,
and that he should continue to do SO
unless forbidden by his son, the doctor.
At this John l.. became much enrag-
ed and behaved in a very rude and
threatening manner toward the old
gentleman. In order to avoid the dis
agreeable alteration, the old gentle
man rose up and walked off to go to
another room. telling John to go away
and behave himself, and accusing him
of having a pistol, (Which was visible
to everybody and adding,,that if he,
John L., did not leave, he would have
him arrested. Just at this time Mr..
Leonard Mathis was about entering
the door of another room, walking
away from John. Before he could
enter the room John drew biz pistol
and fired three shots into the back
and shoulder of the old gentleman,
who fell forward upon his face and ex-
pired almost instantly. During the
confusion consequent upon the bloody
tragedy, John made his escape and
had not been arrested at last accounts.

HONEST DEMOCRACY.
What They Say of Our Plat
form and GubeTnatOFiai
Leader in virginia.
Richmond (Va.) State.

The Democracy of Tennessee have
covered themselves with glory in the
sound and patriotic platform adopted
by their State convention and the
nomination Of Hon. John V. Wright
as their Gubernatorial candidate.
The platform meets the question of
of reputation broadly and squarely,
taking the bold ground that the hon
est Democracy Of the State intend to
pay its henesL debts. Judge Wright,
the nominee for Governor, is most
able and eloquent speaker, and Il
statesman of national reputation, COM
bined with long and successful expe-
rience in pIblic affairs. Prior to the
late war he was for many years
member of Congress from Tennessee,
occupying in the council halls of the
nation a front rank position when
statesmen were our leaders and giants
our rulers. He was of that gallant
hand of Southern men who eXerted
every effort to avert the war, but
when overwhelmed by the maddeu>
ing avalanche of passion, the country
was precipitated into the bloody whirl-
pool of civil strife, he was among the
first to rally to the defence of his sec
ton, aud with one of Tennessee's choi.
cest regiments engaged actively in the
contest till called by the unanimous
voice of his old constituents, whom he
had served so long and so well, to rep
resent them in the Confederate Con-
gress, which he did with eminent abil-
lty till the closing of the war. After
peace was proclaimed he returned to
the practice of law, which he has pur>
sued to the present time, except when
serving on the bench, where he was
recognized as one of the ablest Judges
in the state. He will make Il brilliant
can 7ass, and, we predict, one of the
most popular aud distinguished Chief
Executives that has adorned the gal
liant Volunteer State.

We take the following from the
columns of the Louisville Commercial
of Aug. II, the leading Republican
paper of the South. 1t shows the
hopes of the Republicans and the pur-
poses OF the boilers
The Republicans of Tennessee ex-
pect to elect Mr.. Hawkins, their can-
didate for Governor, by reason of the
Democratic split, and they have the
assurance from many of the debt-pay-
ing Democrats that they will vote for
him. Col. Savage, leader of the
Readjusters, who is now in this city,
gives it as his opinion that the Repub.
licans will elect their Governor, and
says the Readjusters will carry the
Legislature.

What Thompson Thinks of wiz
Lebanon Herald.

As to Mr. Wilson's political course,
we prefer to let one Of his own politi-
cal household speak; and We invite
careful attention to the following,
which appeared as communication
in the Beral'i Of May 9th. We vio-
late no confidence in saying that it
was prepared for and contributed to
the Herald by Col. Robert Emmet
Thompson, Of Lebanon, the recognn>
ed leader of the lOw-tax party in WI
son county:
'To the editor of the Herald: l see
that the Hartsville Sentinel recon-
mends the Hen. S. +. Wilson to both
sides for Governor. If we are not
mistaken in Mr.. Wilson's record, like
the old mans SOW, he isOn both sides of
the ditch. In 1915, the Hon. Lee
Head offered bill in the Legislature
to compromise the state debt at 70
cents on the dol4ar. Mr. Wilson wrote
an article tor the Gallatin Tennessee
an, in which hedeBeRnced Mr. Heads
bill as an Outrageeas attempt to de-
fame the State bv repudiating its hon
est debt. In 1877 he supported the
Phelan bill, which proposed to settle
the debt at 80 and l. So strong was
he for this bill, that he movei the
previous question, tso as to cut off all
debate. In: 1879, he voted against
the 30 and / compromise in the Leg
islature, but refused to sign the pro.
test against its passage, gotten up by
those who voted against it, and when
he went home, he told the members
of the Gallatin Bur that the cOmprO-
mise was the best that Gould be done,
and the people should accept it. At
the commencement of the late can
vass he made speech at.Gainesloro,
in which he took the same position.
After the canvass was opened, and
public sentiment developed, he took a
bold stand against the compromise.
After the election he told Col. Tom.
Claiborne that he was for paying
whatever equities the Supreme Court
might decide against the state in the
big railroad suit. At the last meeting
here he told the low-taxers not to he
bulldoze by the high takers. He
told the high takers that the lOw>tax.
ers We're revolutionary. and that he
did not approve of their course.
Ii Il man of the above record can't
sit upon the mill dam, or ride two
horses i'll Il circus, who can?
ACROBAT"
We neither endorse nor deny the
above. but present it as Il review of
the record of the low-tax candidate
torss Governor by q prominent low tax
leader. We differ with Col. Thomp-
son Oh almost all public questions,
but we do him the justice to admit
that his course as low-tax man has
bad The merit of consistency, and
we do not wonder that he was impsA-
ed to give expression to his scorn for
the audaeious attempt Of Il would>be
low-tax leader to ride two horses

The Boston Herald, an irdepen>
dent paper with Republican "leaning,"
declines TO give Garfield its sup
port. 1t explains us follows: eve
desire civil service reform, Il revision
of the tariff, the adoption of II sound
financial policy, change in the laws
regulating the counting Of the electo-
raj vote, the greatest amount of local
self government compatible with the
orderly existence of the National
government. Will a Republican vic
tory bring about these desired results?
The party in its platform has distinct
ly stated that the tariff must rot be
revised; the candidate, in his letter of
acceptance, has thrown civil service
reform out Of all calculation, while
the party leaders are organizing
campaign on an issue which implies,
ifit means anything, that the princi-
pie Of home rule accorded to the states
10y the constitution is pernicious doc
triie."

The cotton produced at the south
in the four years of carpetbag rule of
1866, 1867, 1868 and 1869 amounted
to about four hundred million dollars;

1873, under Democratic rule, it
amounted 20 nine hundred and fifty
one million dollars, or absolutely more
than twice as much.

The excursion party TO the Shenan.
doah Valley Railroad which left Phila.

Thursday, and which included repre-.
sentatives Of the Reading, New Jersey
Central, Lehigh Valley and western
Maryland Railroads, Is said have
been convinced Of the practicability Of
the Baltimore and Ohio Raiirsad
securing an outlet to New York iss
good and as short as that by Washing
ton ard the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore Railroad. The Bslti-
more and 0hio's New York passengers
can 60 to Haeerstown, where they take
the Cumberland Valley Railroad TO
Harrisburg; take the Railroad there for
Allentown, and the New Jersey Central
at the latter place for New York. An
other route proposed is TO send New
York passengers to Harrisburg BY the
Northern Central Railroad, then by
the Reading az before.
The Western Maryland taps the for
mer road near Baltimore. This idea Is
the basis Of new trunk line from New
York to the South. Is surveys have
already been begun for the extension
Of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad 10

One Of the Maryland directors Of the
Baltimore and Delta Railroad is reported
10 have let out the fact that the right
Of way into Philadelphis has been 50.
cured for Col. McComb's projected rail
road between this city and Baltimore.
Colonel MeComb has recently said In
Wilmington that the road would Ger.

Philadelphis has been the chief obstacle
To carrying out the idea.
Mr.. c. P. Huntington, president. and
General Williams C. Wick ham, vice
president Of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad, were In Norfolk last week
with several northern capitalists inter-
ested in the completion Of that road to
