less than forty people have been murdered

nothing. Col. Price, an experienced Indian

A very unfortunate affair occurred in Tin
Pot Alley this week. The belligergents had
long arms and each endeavored to mash the
p'Hg-bat of the other. We regret exceed
insly that these things will happen, just as
spring blooms into existence. A long pent-
up winter has succumbed to the gentle in
fuences Of spring, and it must be that the
sudden change in the forces Causes bad blood.

good thing. 1t is the bile that needs work

President Garfield to-day sent to the
Senate the following nominations
Secretary of State.-J. G. Blaine, of
Maine.
Secretary of the Treasury.-Wm. Win
dom, of Minnesota.
Attorney General Wayne McVeagh,
of Pennsylvania.
Postmaster. General.-Thos. L. James,
of New York.
Secretary of the Iuterior.-s. J. Kirk
wood, of Iowa.
Secretary of War.-R. F. Lincoln, of
Illinois.
Secretary ofthe Navy.-Wm. H. Hunt,
of Louisiana.
The Senate, on motion of Senator Cam
eron, went into Executive session, and
confirmed the nominations unanimously.
What is Thought Of 1t.
WASHINGTON, March 5.--The new
Cabinet was sent in to the Senate this
afternoon and was confirmed in Execu-
tive session Immediately without discus
sion. 1t may be several days before the
members thereof will qualify, and until
then, at Gen. Gar6eld's request, the pres.
ent officers will serve.
Now that the speculation as to Mr..
Gartield's advisers is at an end it appears
to remove the responsibility from good
many shoulders. The current comment
as to the quality of material 10 the new
Cabinet is very favorable to Mr.. Gar
field. Admiration is expressed by his
political friends that be has so clearly
succeeded in a selection which happily
combines party policy with sectional in
terest and persona! qualifications. They
place party exigency first, as q rupture
has all along been predicted upon any
choice that might be made. An Ohio
Republican aptly expresses it: "He has
every element in the party properly
represented but one; there is everything
but Garfield in it." Among the Demo
Gratis it is admitted to be strong Cabi-
net, both as regards the Strengthening
of the party Mr.. Garfield represents and
giving strength and respectability to his
Administration. Pennsylvanians are
possibly an exception to these opin-
ions. There are those among them who,
while they concede the respectability of
Wayne McVeagh, arc disposed to regard
his selection as likely to cause feeling
among the Stal warts. They shake their
heads wisely when bis name is mentioned.
These are mostly Republicans.
The Pennsylvania Democrats corrobo-
rate this sagacity with smile of salts.
faction. The selection of Robert Lin
coin is not one which anybody who
knows Garfield would have suspected
him of making. Mr.. Lincoln is thought
very well of here where he is personally
we'll known, but the cavillers are outside
politicians from States like Indiana.
They have unrecognized claims.

Batesville Factory Burned.

The Batesville Factory, located in
Greenrille county, was destroyed by fire
on Tuesday of last week, the particu-
lars of which are given in the Greenville
Ne,rs, as follows:
The direct cause of the fire is unknown.
Mr.. j. B. Neal, who vas engaged in some
work outside the factory, was the first to
discover the FIRE and give the alarm. He
noticed blaze issuing from the centre of
the roof, from small spot on the top of
the building, and Immediately rushed
into the factory and up stairs to the up.
per story, which vas part of the build.
ing not used. On reaching the landing
ne discovered this upper story to be "all
ablaze." The FIRE had spread so rapidly
that when discovered first it was mani
fest that no exertion could possibly save
the factory from utter destruction. In
two hours and half there was left only
the debris of the building, including the
blacksmith and carpenter shops, imbed-
ded in pile of ashes. The factory was
in full operation at the time of the fire.
The Batesyille Factory was originally
the property of the Batesville Manufac-
turing Company, and vas bought in No.
vember, 1879, by Mr.. George Putnam,
an energetic business man. The price
paid was $4,000, but since it hos been
owned by MIR. Putnam he has expended
in improved machinery about $4,000.
The factory building was three stories
high 44x13O, running l440 spinning
spindles and 628 twister spindles.
The only kind of goods manufactured
was twisted yarns, for which there was
steady demand, chiefly from Boston,
Massachusetts. There were about twenty
families living on the place, giving
about forty-four employees. All these
are out of occupation now. The power
principally used was water, steam power
being used to the extent only Of one. e.eighth.
The raw material annually consumed
was about 900 bales of cotton. The loss
falls heavily on Mr.. Putnam, as the
property was insured for only $1,000
about half its value. The lands sur
rounding Mr.. Putnam's property are
fertile and we'll watered. There are ia
acres attached to his mill site. These
lands are valuable cotton lands, bringing
readily an average of So per acre. Mr.
Putnam will probably rebuild. The
Batesville Factory was built about thirty
years ago and was probably the first cot
ton factory in the State. Its unfortunate
destruction will, it is to be hoped, be
followed at an early day by the erection
of new buildings, provided with all the
modern improvements.
