ALand swindier Convicted.

Sr. LOUIS, November 1.-The jury
in the case Of John Brady, Jr., who
was tried to. day in the Criminal Court
on the charge of false acknowledge
ment of deeds, returned a verdict Of
guilty at one O'Clock last night. The
assessed punishment ;s seven years IN
the peni,entiary. Brady is one of the
men concerned in the great land swim
die scheme which was unearthed in
the land office at lrontOn, this State,
last Spring, and in which Robert L..
Lindsay, of this city, Burna, of Pitts
burgb, and others, were implicated,
and will be brought to trial. Lindsay
is now in Jail at Steubenvilie, Ohio;
and will be tried next month. Her.
man E. Scheuster, notary, and Geo.
E. Brown are also implicated In the
swindle, charged with forgery, and
have pleaded guilty, but are not yet
sentenced. John G. Duffey, sno.her
one of the gang, has turned States
evidence, and will be used as wit
ness in the cases to come on. The
cases, it will be recollected, were first
brought before the United States Court
here, but were transferred to the State
Courts, and United States District
Attorney Bliss was charged with the
prosecution of them by Attorney
General Devens.

The only political change in the
House of Representatives of Congress
since the last session is that of Roswell
p. Fowler, Democrat, to succeed Levi
p. Morton, Minister to France, and q
Republican. The next House will
consist of 293 members, Of whom 146
one less than q majority-are Repub-
licans, and 137 are Democrats, leaving
balance of ten members, consisting
of Greenbackers, Readjusters and In
dependents. Yet the Republicans ex-
pect to, and probably will, organize the
House, as they possess the means to
purchase the necessary aid to enable
them so to do from these eccentrics.
But what q spectacle is presented to
the world in this affilliation of the
great, pious, patriotic and loyal Repub-
Iican party with factions which they
have SO recently denounced as repudi-
ators of most sacred obligations, mere

money in an old-fashioned safe under
the stairs in the hallway Of his resi-
dence. The party of burglars were
i've in number. Four of them gained
admittance to the house. The Bald.
win family slept up stairs, and the first
intimation they had of the burglary
was the furious noise made by the
blowing open of the safe with powder.
George Lewis, Bsldwin's son -in-law,
fired three shots at the robbers as they
left the house with bags of gold in
their arms. The burglars returned q
volley. No one on either side was
injured. The robbers had previously
taken two of Baldwin horses and

them standing near the residence.
They jumped into the buggy and es

MERIDIAN, MISS, November Sth.-
Four white men were killed and two
severely wounded by negroes to day
1T Marion Station, this county. The
negroes opened fire on the whites at
the polls while the election was going
on. The whites had no arms, conse-
quentIy no damage was done to the
negroes. One man killed was A. Il.
Harvey, Democratic candidate for
County Assessor. The Sheriff, with
O posse from this p ace, found about
one hundred negroes barricaded in
the dwelling-house of their leader,
Ed. Vance. and were fired on by the
negroes as they approached the house.
Another armed body of men has gone
from here to the scene to assist the
Sheriff. Otherwise the election in this
county was qaiet aud orderly.

Vincent Segars, and severely wound
the above are white men. The negroes
were armed, while tho whites had no
weapons. Ed. Vance, the instigatOr

his house, barricaded the door, and
refused admittance to the Sheriff 8
posse which went in pursuit. AT this
period John Vance,a son of Ed. Vance,
rode up, armed with a shotgun, which
be pointed at the posse. In the firing
which ensued John Vance was killed,

Correspondence

COLLEGE MATTERs.-TheF Fall term
of College closed last Friday, and with
it closed the attendance of one gentle
man and three ladies, who were ex-
PEELED for non attendance to studies
and violation of rules. Four more gem
tlemen are on the ragged edge, In pain
full suspense, lest the dreaded excom-
municating AK may fall upon their
guilty heads.
About the first part of the term
young lady made a bitter complaint
against young man for kissing her.
The guileless faculty were indignant
and the young man was expelled. The
same young lady was one Of the three
expelled. The others were influenced
by her. An understanding of the ways
that are dark is sometimes of great
benefit.
If the young men who celebrated
Eallow e'en" will work as faithfully
for honorable success through life, as
they did to celebrate that event, their
lives will be success. They succeed
ed in raising the devil generally; and
barriug the destruction of property,
there WAS fun in the air.
!, DEATH OF MRS. LUCY TRAsK.-It
is with profound sorrow and unfeigned
grief that we announce the decease OF
Mrs. Lucy Trask. widow of DIR. L. w.
, Trask. The deceased was born in the
State of New York, in 1908, and came
to Atwater when she was nine years
old. She was married in 1882. Thir-
ty-six years of her fife were spent in
Hiram, where by her self-sacrificlng
disposition, her keen sense of honor,
and her enlarged ideas of justice, she
had endeared herself to a large circle
of sincere friends. There is something
. peculiarly sad, as we gaze upon IA
miliar form stilled in death, whose
. life has been checkered by adversities
and clouded by gloom-one who by
! nature was full of animation, whOs'
. natural disposition was cheerful ant

A WAsHINGTON Correspondent of
the Pittsburg Dispatch, strong Re-
publican paper, in speaking of Presi-
dent ArthHr's administration being q
oonundrum, makes the following
striking remarks:
"Is Mr.. Arthur the real Admins.
tration or is he merely the figure-head
of the political Department. Some
very cynical people sacrilegiously al
lude to him as Grants cOachman. To
be sure Mr.. Arthur drove Grant to the
train, and to be sure he has gone SO far
as to meet the great national boss at
the depot. and Is said to have carried
his luggage; but any man who says
that Arthur merely sits on the box and
wears the Grant livery may be de-
nounced as q horse thief and a liar
Nevertheless, General U. s. Grant il
of bosses the king-bee. He is the only
man who walks into the Presidentia
mansion without knocking. If old
Zach Chandler were living there
would be two, but, unfortunately, the
fatal effects of Chicago whisky left vi
but one.

The Democrats elected their candi.
date for State Treasurer, and the Re.
publicans the balance Of the State
ticket in New York. The Democrats
made large gains IN Albany, Buffalo,
and other parts of the State, but too
much bossism in New York and
Brooklyn prevented . complete victs-
ry. For the first time since 1873, the
Democrats haye a good working ma
jority in the Legislature.
Pennsylvania still adheres to the
Cameron regime, though by small
plurality.
The Regulators with their Repub-
lican allies carried Virginia, Though
the Democrats made large gains over
the combined votes of the fusienists
last year. 1t is expected the trouble
will begin when the allies come to
divide the spoils.
Wisconsin gave large Democratic
gains, but not enough to carry the
State.
The Democrats made large gains in
New Jersey, and the members of the
lower House are . tie, which will
block the Radical gerrymandel
schemes.
The Republicans still hold theil
grip in Connecticut, but their MAORI
ty in the next Legislature will not bs
as large as in the last.
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebras
ka and Colorado are Republican, a
heretofore.
Maryland and Mississippi are still
Democratic.
| And that's the story in brief of thu
result of the late elections.

of the contingent fund. He was sum.

THERE is no use in Republican lead
ers and editors getting up Oh their hind
legs because of the occasional allusion
made by Democratic papers to the
connection of Christian Statesmen of
the Republican persuasion with the
Credit Mobilier swindle. That unsa-
worry affair is matter of history and
public record, and 10 amount Of de-
nunciatiOn can ever wipe it out or bury
it from public view. Democrats will
doubtless in the future frequently re-
call the facts in the matter for the pur-
pose of pointing moral or adorning
a tale, in spite of the indignant howl
that may be raised against them by
Radical papers for SO doing.
