Embrcy had been lingering for some
time, and had spent the greater portion
Of the past winter at her brothers in
Central Alabama, hoping to restore her
falling health. She returned TO her
home about three or four weeks ago.
She WAS buried beside her husband, at
the family graveyard near her resi-
dcnec. The funeral services were con.
Quoted by Rev. W. B. Thompson, pas,
tor Of the Presbyterian Church, Of
which church she was a member, She
leaves three little children and Il num-
Der Of relatives to mourn her loss.
Charlie Carney, Of this place, and
who was employed as brakeman on the
Northwestern division Of the n, G. &
st, Louis Railway, met with Il serious
accident lately, while i'll the discharge OF
his duties. He was in the act of cut
ting some cars loose, when, by sudden
jerk of the engine, he lost his hold and
fell between the cars, and one of his
feet was caught under the car-wheeland
50 badly crushed that his leg had to be
ampulatcd above the ankle joint. The
other leg was badly bruised. He i,
now at his home here, and is doing well.
We were very sorry to learn here thi,
morning that Mr.. Joe Daniel, very
nice, clever young man, who was well
known here, met with terrible death
at Cowan early this morning. lie was
employed us brakeman ON one of the
freight trains, and while coming int
Cowan this morning made Il misstcp and
fell between the carS. We learn that
thirteen cars and the engine passed over
him, crushing him to atoms. He wa,
about % years Of age, and was much
respected by all who knew him.

We find document going the rounds
in this part of the country, dcnominated
I" A. S. Colyar's brief or speech before
the Court OF Arbitration al Nashville,
in the case Of Louisa j. Hill, next
friend &C., vs. A. G. Williams Now,
most of us are close neighbors Of said
A. c. Williams, and all have had Il
long personal acquaintance with him, in
business and otherwise. And, as neigh
bors and acquaintance, we nnhesta-
tingly say that he is an honest, hard
working man, and has always manifest
ed great zealand has proved it by hi'
acts-for the welfare and education OF
his motherlcss children. And while, b,
the Courts his pockets may be emptic'
and his lands may be swept away
which he has procured us homes for hs
deserted children, we are not willing
that his character and that of his anna
bic daughter, Miss Mary Polk, shall b,
murdered before our eyes. The trutl
Of the matter is, there Is some mystery
connected with the circulating Of thi'
document. Most of us think court
speeches belong to the court, and should
not be printed at the expense Of the in
noccnt, and thrown out in the attitude
of SANDER to strike down innocent and
helpless parties. And we are in full
sympathy with him in his unfortunate
situation, and heartily commend him
for his faithful and upright devotednes'
to his lonely children. He is known
and 20 regarded in this community as
an educating man, consequently it is no
mystery to as that his little daughter,
8 wears old, could read Il note in 1870
from her mother.
Now, this is as denscly y populated
neighborhood as any rural district in the
county, and many Of us have grown up
with the facts of the case, and wedo not
think such gross things could have oc-
CURED and escaped the observation OF
all his ncighbors, hence we are unwill-
ing to say that justice has been done
him in the premises.

Hon. Jno. NJ. Bright, our present
member of Congress, announces himself
this week as candidate for reelection.
Gen.. B. has served us for three or
four successive terms, and there are
some who ask What has he done? A
good reply would be: Who could have
done more? Nevertheless, there are
other men in our district who can serve
us as well as Gen. Bright, but not bet
ter. The Home Journal is for the sue
cess of the Democratic party, not for
the success of observation-disclosures it is
for free and fair fight before the peo-
pie. And Maj. A. l.. Lands also an
nounces himself. Mr.. Lands has been
honored with State Officcs-is worthy
man, &c. He is, we believe, q Glow
tax man, and therein he differs with
us. But this has nothing to do with
National offices. State matters are not,
necessarily, matters for discussion in the
canvass for Congressional honors. All
the men announced so far in our paper
are Democrats. We hope they will
eschew all matters alien to the success
Of the Democratic party.

Marrying seems to be the "order OF

Leap Year, and the ladies are surely
making hay while the sun shines.
Our worthy member of the Bar, Mr..
Henry Finch, has just returned from
Texas with bride, notice of which is
given elsewhere in our columns. And
when we mentioned last week that Mr..
Henry Tanning had returned from
Texas we did not know that he had
brought with him lovely Texas girl as
his bride. And all of these are to be
citizens of Winchester. Verify, the
year 1880 has been one Of prolific mar
riagcs. We could cite you back to
prove it, but you can cite back for
