AN EXCITING CIRCUS ACCIDENr.-The
Philadelphia Times says: Last night,
while Coup's circus was in full blast down
at Broad and Dickinson streets and while
the electric light flashed out with constant
brilliant effect upon an audience of fully ten
thousand people, one of the most exciting
affairs known to circus life Of late years in
this city occurred in the great ring Of the
Hippodromc. 1t was in the fiat races, and
Frank Morgan, the celebrated jockey, and
four others were flying like lightning around
the ring, each on the back Of one Of the
wild horses. Every round the horses seem.
ed to go faster and every round the riders
seemed to get more excited and to urge them
forward at greater speed Morgan was
ahead and his horse had attained speed
that made the head dizzy TO look at it, when
just as he was flying at this tremendous rate
around the upper or cast turn Of the ring
his bCrse made sudden, unexpected stop
and Morgan was thrown headloug to the
ground. Instantly most exciting scene
occurred Every man, woman and child
underneath the great tent sprang to their
feet women screamed and covered their
tac.s with their handk kerchefs; men rushed
ed to the scene, and 10 one moment it SEEM
ed as ii the whole assemblage was panic
stricken. Meantime the second horse. rid.
den by colored jockey, which was a few
yards behind Morgan at the time of the ac-
cident, c,mo right against the PROSTATE man
striking his body with one of its hoofs,
while the other three horses came right on
its heels. For moment it seemed as though
he would be crushed to death. Fortunate.
ly the last three horses, with wonderful in.
stlct, jumped over him. Borne by tho arms
OF dozen circus men he was carried be-
hind the scenes inseusible, while two or
three medical men in the cadence went
back and examined him. 1t was found
that he had been badly stunned, but alter II
few minutes work by the physicians he re-
gained consciousness and they pronounced
his injuries not dangerous.

FAILURE OF THE BLACKBERRY CRop.-The un-
paralleled nature of the past season has capped
the climax by an unheard Of event. From va
rious parts of tho county comes the announce
ment that the blackberry briars are dead. The
ol dest inhabitant does not rem ember such q
thing as failure Of the blackberry crop
When everything else has failed the blackberry
has offered its consolation. But it is now posi-
lively asserted by those who have examined
closely into the matter that the briars have been
killed to the ground. The consequence Of
this in this immediate section is to deprive the
people generally of q cheap luxury at q time
when 1t Is most needed and the poorer class Of
people Of no unimportaut source of revenue
How it will be in those sections of the State
where the blackberry trade has been developed
to considerable extent and the fruit constitutes
principal staple. remains to be ascertained.- -

and return TO Massachusetts. With the charac-
teristic,, cowardly evasion Of the authors o.
similar stories of occurrences in the Southern
States, he refused to give The name of the alleged
victim. Then. when brought to the book by
Senator George, who informed him that there
were but two or three factories in the whole
State of Mississippi, aud that one of them could
not be burned without its being matter of
common notoriety, he hesitatingly stammered
ont that 1t was not factory but q cotton gin
house. The Mississippi Senator, thereupon de-
MED the whole story, and informed Dawes, that
having refused to give the name of the gray
haired victim, he must assume the authorship.
and thereby the imputation which had been cast
upon the author.
Under this grave charge the Massachusetts Is
Senator rests to day. The army of active news
paper men in Washington, and indeed, all over
country, have endeavored TO come to his rescue
by discovering this gray haired Northerner, but
in vain. Finally one of them is compelled to
telegraph to his paper: "It is now known posi-
lively that Mr.. Dawes has not one particle of
reliable evidence upon which to base his afro
cious calumny:against the people Of an entire
State"
A slander of this kind, involving charges OF
brutality, uncivilzed and inexcusable, coming
from a United States Sentor in his official cam.
city, and rs such entered upon the records of
the government, cannot be classed with the ordi-
nary newspaper reports derive from irres pons-
ible sources. It's truth has been denied, but
this is not sufficient. The Senate of the United
States cannot afford TO allow one of its members
to rest under the imputation of falsehood. If
he has not the manliness to clear himself Of the
charge to retract it, the Senator'S should illus
trate their own manhoon by expelling him from
the body Charlotte Observer.

Not Hero MOrshipers.

The Boston Journal deprecates the
bold utterances of General Grant as set
forth in the Chicago interview. "They
are not, says the Journal, ''the senti-
ments he held when first elected Presi-
dent, and they are in no sense Republi-
can sentiments, but opinions he has
come to entertain of late. This, we be-
lieve, is the feeling of a large majority
of the Republican party and of many
thousands of men who will never cease
to remember the great service of General
Grant. But our people are not hero
worshipers."
We suppose not. All these are well
known facts. 1t was needless for the
Journal to inform the country that Gen
eral Grants Chicago views had 'fcome
to him of late" The country had not
forgotten that he was for eight gears the
Republican sphynx in Washington. No
Republican politician we can now recall
has entertained the same views out of
Office he did when handling the spoils.
Neither was it necessary for the JournGEto
remind the country that Republicans are
not steadfast "hero worshipers. They
have given conclusive evidence of that
fact. 1t is the ''t0aUes and fishes" which
call forth their alteration and bend the
pregnant hinges of their sanctiied mar
row bones. As soon as their hero is
shorn of these they dump him into the
sewer. Amt it 50, Conk?

These Albany corrupters of our youth,
says the Hartford Times, will have to
take further lessons from their great
Republican exemplars at Washington
before they can hope to shine--or else
the price at Albany is lower than it has
been at the national capital. Senator
Sessions thought he had got Bradley for
1000; but he should have considered
that Garfield, as Chairman of the appro-
priations, was once paid 5000 for a
corrupt job. The Albany $4,000 was to
beat Conkling; the De Golyer 5000
was to open the Treasury to the tune of
about a million to a plundering ring.
Garfield, when exposed. called it pro-
fessional ''fee." Sessions calls it "a
id lie" Both were evidently annoyed.

There has been much discussion in
the Cincinnati and Chicago papers for
several months whether the Union
troops at Shiloh were surprised, owing
to the bad generalship of Grant and
Sherman, and so on the first days battle
were defeated, and only saved from an
Inhalation or capture by the timely
arrival of Buell.. General Basil w.
Duke, of Kentucky, Confederate
officer of excellent reputation, and a
gentleman whose word was never ques-
toned, has written for the Gin
cinnati Gazette an account Of
the first days battle at Pitts
burg Landing, in which he makes
pretty clear the delinquency and neglect
of the Union Generals, which came so
near destroying the army. The Gdzettc
accepts the plain story of General Duke
as authentic and conclusive. 1t says that
it is written with candor and dignity
worthy of history-that it puts" to
shame the partisan, pettyfogging style
and untruthfulness of Adam Badeau and
his Memoirs" and that. strange as it
may appear, 'the brave troops who saved
that narrowed field have to look for jus
tice to Confederate General, as the ma
ton has also for general account of the
battle" This may be called little rough
on Grant and Sherman from the most
stalwart of Republican journals.

on this claim they will base their efforts

been Whittaker's friend and legal ad-
wiser, during all of his troubles, is still
active in his behalf, and does not pro-
pose to give it up until the matter is
finally settled. Professor Greener has
never received a cent for his services. "

The Radical Programme for Georgia

The Philadelphia Nsscs (Rad.) says:
General Longstreet Is to have general
charge of splitting the Democratic party
in Georgia For this purpose he has
been made Marshal of that district by
Garfield The Democracy of Georgia is
already in a semi. disorganized condition,
torn by rival candidates for power.
Longstreet may, by the use of Federal
patronage, work to intensity the hostility
between the two sections of the party
and on their ruins build up an 'inde-
pendent party of Democrats and Repub-
licans. This is the plan of campaign"
This may be the plan adopted in Radi-
cal council for splitting the Democratic
party in Georgia." but we fail to see in
it anything that promises them a reason
able prospect of success. 1t is very evil
dent that the projectors are deceived in re-
gard to the true situation in Georgia, and
that they greatly overrate the influences
by which they propose to effect their OBJ
ject. In the first place the Democracy
of Georgia is not already in semi-dis-
organized condition. There exists no
division in the ranks of the Democracy
of Georgia, and the party to-day is as
fimly united in support of the principles
which it processes, in support of honest
constitutional government, and in
opposition to Radical misrule and
corruption, as it ever was. Those who
suppose that our State election last fall
indicated state of DISCRIMINATION in
the Democratic party of Georgia, lack
of steadfast devotion to Democratic
principles by the mass of our people, are
greatly mistaken. There was some dis.
cord and harmony in the ranks of the
party growing out of personal jealousies
and aspirations for office, but the over
whelming majority by which the candi-
dates recommended by the majority of
the nominating convention were elected,
should convince our Radical opponents
that there is no real detection in the
ranks of the Georgia Democra-
cy, or that Georgia offers
no field for such partY-splitting schemers
as Malone, of Virginia. There is no
material here out of which to construct
an independent party. Democrats have
nothing to expect from such hybrid or
ganization of disappointed Office seekers
and political flag ends, and, as will be
seen by the late meeting in Atlanta, the
Republicans have too much sagacity to
put any faith in such an alliance.

A Sensible Woman.

There is one woman in Iowa who isn't
laundering after office. Her name is Mrs
Mary E. Nash. She was nominated by
the Iowa Greenbackers for the position
of Superintendent of Education. In
her letter declining the nomination she
says: Il am a wife and a mother, and
have home to take care of, which oc-
cupies my entire time, and forbidS all
thought of neglecting it for any political
honor, especially when the chance of
securing the honor is as questionable as
it is in Iowa outside the Republican
party. / have never appeared in public
and never sought notoriety in any d.
rection, believing that, if l make my
home what it should be, my mission as
a true woman will be filed. This being
so, while do not question the kind in
tention of the gentlemen, they certainly
had no right to take my name from my
home and hold it up for the State to
read, and put me in the role of an office
seeker, and which by no means belongs
to me, and which, under no circum-
stances, would / consent to accept. In
addition to this. my political flag, if it
were to float at all, would be found in
the other camp, and while / cannot vote,
and do not wish to, would not desert
my colors for office.

Calling for Legislation.

We notice several articles going about
in the press calling for State legislation
in Georgia to aid the farmers in stopping
he wheel of call cotton" but we do not
think any of them emanated from prac-
ical farmers ander the wheel. We
think the call comes more from those in
sympathy with him than from the far
mer himself. No doubt the farmer
finds it difficult to say what legislation
would work his immediate relief, with
out leaving behind the sting of ultimate
dishonor. This kind of relief he is not
seeking, and if the State can offer no
other it would be better to dismiss the
subject, and let the farmer work out his
own relief, guided by the experiences of
The past. AS the object of all legislation
is the good of the people" or should
be, of course, this source may properly
be consulted in the search for relief,
but never to the destruction of the
rights of others, nor to the dishonor of
those seeking relief. Generally speaking
we have too much legislation, thereby
confusing government. weakening the
original ''stalwart" self reliance of the
people, and educating them to effemi.
nate dependence upon already
overcrowded statute books. Wise
statesmen will endeavor to avoid
these evils, while they leave no
obstacle in the way of a free and full
development of the industries of the
country.
