81, 900 Reward Offered For the Capture of
the Assassin.
large number of the citizens of Austin have
very properly united in offering reward Of
81, 900 for the arrest of the assassin who at
tempted to take the life of Judge Page in
that city few days ago. The offer is as
follows:
$1,000 REWARD.
A reward of (S1 ,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.

AUSTIN, Mimi, Aug. 25, 1880.
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 $5, 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 a 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.

Terrible Hasrricane In Janatca.

hurricane
New YORK, Sept. 3.-The Star and Herald
of Panama has just received the story of a
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 haye 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 perlshed.
ALI 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
FRIaHTFUL TO LOOK UPON.
ALI Mantown, Brownstown, Passmoretown,
Hannahstown, Smiths village and Fletohers
land suffered severely. School houses were
leveled and churches, chapels and sYnagogues
went down in the gale. The banana crop ia
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
whole of the provision crop is destroyed, and
great want will be felt among the peasantry.

POLITICAL NOTES.
Great Democratic Meeting in Columbus
Short Speech by Senator Windom-A
Michigan Candidate Held to the Track
The Republicans Elect an Alderman.


The Republicans Elect an Alderman.
Ihnrnsas's Speech at Columbus.
COLUMBUS, o.. Sept. S.-The Democratic
meeting in Capitol square tonight was
very large and imposing one. The Hancocl
and English clubs from the various wards pa
raded the principal streets amid fire work
and colored lights and then marched to Capito
square, where the scene was q very attrativ'
one. At o'clock the mestfag was called t.
order, with Senator Thurman president. The
president was then introduced, and, after thu
cheering had subsided, said:
eFellow 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
as there are three speakers who will
address you and it would be neither proper or
polite to occupy the time which has been
allotted to them. Still 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 Missis-
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 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
aota made the 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 definitely. 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 elec.
tion of General Hancock. When this gr 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 Oi
one country. But Hancock votes will come
from the North, South, East, and West. BE
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.

the Republican nominee for Congress from the
Eighth district and who is now on the stump
in Maine, wrote letter to the congressional
committee from Portland, Maine, Aug. a.,
withdrawing from the canvass because of re-
port that certain prominent Republicans in
the district would oppose him with money
and other means. About seventy leading Re-
publicans from all parts of the district met the
congressional committee to-day and after free
and full canvass of all the facts, unanimously
agreed to accept Mr.. Horr's declinatton. The
committee telegraphed this decision to him at
Augusta tonight and it is probable that Mr..
Horr will consent to run.
