'SHOI TO DEATH.

A sad accident occurred at
10 o'clock Thursday morning on
Long street, between State and
Nashville streets, in the rear
potion Of the Sixth District,
whereby a boy aged 8. years
named Pascal Larroux. was shot
in the head and mortally wound
ed.
Pascal Larroux, in company
with his two elder brothers,
Emile and Peter, and a colored
boy named Henry Conig, had
started out for the purpose OF
killing birds with Conig's doub-
le barrel shot gun.
On reaching Long street tho
question arose as to whether
one of the barrels of the gun
was loaded or not. Conig sug-
gested that the matter be prac-
tically tested by blowing down
the muzzle of the gun and he
would apply his finger to the
vent and ascertain the fact, and
STOPPING down he placed his
finger near the nipple. Both
hammers were rasied and to
prevent an accident the boy
venturned to let the hammer of
the loaded barrel down. Pascal
had in the meantime prepared
himself to enact his part of the
programme and had bent his
head over the mr1zzle of the gun
when the hammer slipped from
ConiS's fingers and struck the
cap, exploding the charge and
lodging the entire load OF No.
Sshot in PascaPs forehead, pro-
ducing a frightful lacerated
wound.
The unfortunate boys COM
panions, on witnessing the ac=
cident, screamed for help and
succeeded in attracting Mr..
Casamaillo to the spot. Tender
ly he picked up the prostrate
body and conveyed it to the
residence of the boys parents,
at the corner Of St. David and
State streets, where DR.. Mitch
ell was summoned to attend,
but his services were ofno avail,
for the boy expired at a quar-
ter past - o'clock Thursday af-
ternOOn.
An inquest was held, when
the above facts were elicted,
and Corporal Blouin at once ar
rested he colored boy Conig.
The relatives Of the deceased
boy express extreme grief, but
held the colored boy blameless
of any criminal intent.-N. 0.

THE second political outrage

THE second political outrage
OF the season Las occurred iii
Ohio. A band of Republican
bulldozers fell upon and dis
pcrscd a camp meeting of very
respectable and peaceful colored
people at Danville, and several
of the colored people were kill
ed. The Republicans have done
this because they have lately
discovered that, having lost
control Of the negro vote, that
vote is turned against them to
the advantage of the Democrats
ic party. The Republicans now
regret having cntranchised the
colored race, and arc employing
every mea possible TO terrify
them from organizing for the
coming Presidential campaign:

Dear Fathers if thy lOve should send
Some angel, full of pity sweet,
To nerve me for the bitter end,
He'll trace me by my bleeding feetl

And trod it all these weary years!

OF suffering closes dark around,
Thou wilt not hold my anguish light,
Nor give me any needless wound.
Thou wilt not blame the trusting heart
That, witless, hlindly reaches out,
Was thrust against cruel smart,
Whose edge was fair with flowers
about.
Thou'lt lead me from this exile-land.
And with thy morning crswn this

HONEST JOURNALISM

Gallatin Examiner.
The ESanaS'aer, if it is anything, is a
consistent Democratic journal. It is
an honest one, since it always dares to
hold the party to principle, and not
expediency. 1t dares to tell the truth
and not gloss over and hide its errors.
1t is not a partisan paper that finds no
errors i'll its own party, and all in its
opponents; that regards every move of
its leaders right and perfect, and blindly
follows its leaders in their errors and
blunders.
He is the best and truest friend whe
ceunsels his friend Alright, shows him
his errors and aids him to keep on the
right path. Such should be the course

$40 WING HIS LOVE By TWIST

New York Sun

A man who was arraigned in a Brook
lYn Police Court last Saturday, fer heat
ing his wife, protested that ne had the
greatest affection for her-that he loved
her as fondly still as in his counting
days
The wife, who was present to testify
against him, Indignantly exclaimed:
" Yes, ySu @tOsO yOaSr IO0O By ts0istsng my
neck"
This is very much the way Gen. Grant
msnifests his devotion to his country.
He loves her SO we'll that he would twist
her neck-he would abolish her glorious
free institutions and substitute a strong
err Government in their place-that is,
Government in which he would be
stronger and the people would be cor
respOndingly weaker.
His patriotism would be as dangerous
to the country as the love of this wo-
mans husband was to her.
People who think the neck of our
Government had better not be twisted
should do all in their power to twist the
neck of the Third Term Gran: policy.

THE ORPHAN GIRLS LAMENT.
BY MARY HELM ToMPKINs.
Pm standing by thy grave, mother
My father placed thee here;
He sleeps in another land, mother,
Far from his Mary dear.
For years thy lifeless clay, mother,
Hath lain within the tomb,
But thy soul, in beauty bright, mother,
In Heavens cline doth bloom.
Many long years ago, mother,
Thou left'st thy little child;
knew not then my loss, mother,
Or grief had made me wild;
But as through life I've wandered, mother,
without thy gentle care,
I've felt how hard It was, mother,
An orphans lot to bear.
And when my own loved father, mother,
Was called away by God,
felt twas harder STILL mother,
To bow and kiss the rod.
Oh I'm very weary, mother,
To leave this " vale of tears, - mother,
That no more may weep.
For now that you and he, mother,
Are in your homes above,
What is this world to me, mother,
without parents lover
But feel your spirits, mother,
win bless my lonely life,
TIL shall join you both, mother
Freed from all earthly strife.
And now mi try anew, mother,
Ny duties TO fulfill,
TO be content with all, mother,
That is my Makers Will.
Thus may gain His blessing, mother,
Whilst here, on earth, I roam,
And may He give to me, mother,
With you, in Heaven, home
