A FRENCH HAIR MARKET.

A Paris letter says: A hair market
was held a few days since in Belle
mares, Allier county. It was attended
by great many women from sweet
sixteen to venerable sixty. There
were four hair buyers. Each had his
booth, whose front was filled with
cheap, gaudy, calico cloths, worth at
the very outside twenty cents a yard.
In the booth were two men, both
armed. one with q pair Of scissors,
the other with a yard stick. The
former would ask in an arrogant
way, as if he did not want hair and
was doing a very great favor if he
condescended to touch peasants hair:
what do you want i'm exchange for
that?" eff cen yards" Fifteen {?
If I give you four, six, eight, thirteen,
(this figure was rarely exceeded), you
may think yourself very lucky !" The
offer accepted, lac cuts the hair, and
the other man measures the agreed
number of yards. Sometimes the
merchandise" is refused as being
worthless, the head is too old. II
takes about five years fer decent
fleece of hair to gro W.

Repression Of Criminals.

Memphis Appeal: The Nashville
american expresses the opinion that
criminals are more than formerly UNI
der the ban of the national sense OF
justice and adherence of crime, and
that this feeling is becoming more
obvious in the Southwest than at any
other time highwaymen and Hregu-
latOrs" are industriously sought out
and broken up. "The ViOlatOrs of rev.
enue laws" says the american, "the
cOunterfeiter and all that class of
criminals can no longer find an asy-
lum in Tennessee" Railways are
breaking up hidden coverts.and noun
tain recesses, so that "mOonshiners'
and their sympathizers find it less
easy to carry on their nefariOus trans
actions. The officers of the law OBJ
tain more ready assistance from resi-
dents in such Out-Of-the-way places,
for the industrious, the thrifty and
the Well-disposed find that such neigh
bOrs are hiudrances to their prosperi-
ty, and retard the settlement and adj
vancement of the country around
them. These views are wholesome
and correct, especially with respect
to immigration. Who can expect
men to bring their wives and children
into neighbOrhoOds where criminals
abound, and where lawless men muir
der their Enthusiastically carry
ing deadly weapons about them for
tie purpose-and hordes of scoun-
drels order from the spot any person
who has given them offense2 The adj
vance of our sister State of Arkansas,
which has been so marked of late, is
interfered with in particular spots by
this kind of criminals, but public
opinion In the State strongly con-
demrs all such proceedings, and the
State Government is showing an &C
tfvity that will be productive Of the
best effects. The criminal class Of
the Southwest are marked out for ex-
tinction, and with their disappearance
will be done away ore Of the difficult
ties which that portion Of the Union
has had to contend.

Immigration Meetings.

Mai. W. J. Sykes, of Columbia,
Tenn, addressed an immigration
meeting at TulIahoma recently. He
began by referring to the census re
ports to show the difference in the
financial condition of the several
States, and proceeded to explain the
causes. His statistics were startling
In demonstrating the magnificent
place taken by Tennessee in the man
ufacturing and commercial world as
compared to other States not nearly
so blessed in natural resources. He
pointed out the small area of improv-
ed lands, the ratio being as one to
three, while in Ohio and Illinois, both
newer States, the proportion was re-
versed, as three to one, there being
thrice the amount of improved over
unimproved lands. In Ohio farm
values were over $46,0O0,OOO, and tie
value of farm products over eight
millions, while in Tennessee the value
of farms was only little over twenty
nine millions and that Of farm pro-
ducts was over nine millions; yet the
State Of Ohio is one Of the most pros
porous in the Union, and the reason
is because of the enormous manu-
featuring interests of that State-the
manufacturing products of Ohio cOun-
ties being over nine millions, whilst
in Tennessee counties only little
over two millions.

Crop Reports.

At Sharon, Tennessee, wheat sowing
is iimitd by scarcity of seed crops
are short, but less so than was expect
ed.
Little Rock Gazette: "Hon. John G.
Fletcher predicts that the cotton crop
will turn out better than anticipated.
His prediction, thus far, holds good"
In the country about Columbia,
Tennessee, the corn was good on tie
lowlands, on the uplands corn and
cotton were failures cotton is half a
crop.
Dresden, Tennessee, Democrat:
1--WE hear a great deal about cotton
worms eating up the wheat. Gilmore
Bragg had eighteen acres eaten up
by them"
Campbell's Station, Tennessee: The
later rains have brought plenty of
grass; corn turns out poorly; early
sowed wheat is eaten up by grasshop-
pers or army worm.
Midway, Tennessee, has a good
crop of grass since the last rain there
the corn crop turned out poorly; cot
ton was making a better yield than
had been looked for.
At Smyrna, Tennessee, there is a
wonderful double crop Of fox-tail
and club-grass, which will, if housed
| before seriously damaged by frost,
act as a substitute for corn and fod-
der.
From Robertson and Sumner coun-
| ties, Tennessee, come accounts of the
largest tobacco crop seen for some
years; early corn was a partial sue
cess but the late crop is more prOmis-
ing.
In Lewis county, Tennessee, the
farmers are putting in twice as much
small grain as last year; the late rains
gave life to Vegetation; double the
usual amount of fodder and millet
has been harvested.
Little Rock RepUblj can: "The state
ment that the cotton crop is nearly all
| picked is untrue, so far as South Ar
| kansas is concerned. A large portion
| of it still remains in fields in that
section, and the pickers have not been
idle, either.s The fact is, the crop
will be much larger than estimated .
| A Huntington CTenn.) correspond
! ent of the Nashville Banner writes
! that farmers report less than half q
! crop of cotton, but in some portions
/ of the country the corn is very fine.
| Quite large acreage of wheat has
been sOwn, though not so large as
would have been had good seed not
! been so very high.
The Columbia, Tennessee, cores
pOndent of the Nashville Bdnne e.
writes: "Apple trees are i'll full bloom
and some have on them yeung
apples, being the second crop. The
worm has done great damage to cot.
ton in this county, and is now il
many places destroying the wheat
barley and rye"
Dyersburg Gazette: The apple
trees in many portions of this county
are full of blooms. This fall is fine
for grass. The fields are full of the
finest pastures ever known in this
| country. Mr.. VIII Hudson has 8
piece Of land from which he has this
year cut three crops of hay, eacl
crop averaging two tons to the acre.

Governor Witt Dead.

Memphis appeal The Iong-ex-
pected, but none the less sad event
The death of Governor Wilt, of
Louisiana--is announced by telegraph.
He expired at his residence in New
Orleans on Sunday at half-after noon.
He was conscious to the last, and con-
tinued to take an interest in the affairs
of the State and of his friends until
he died. Louisiana never had a more
faithful officer or better citizen. Gov.
Wilt, as we learn from the New
Orleans Democrat, belonged to one
Of the most ancient and hOnOred
families of Louisiana, being of Ger
man Spanish descent. Their paternal
ancestors were among the first Ger
man settlers in that State, and Thomas
BarrasO Villanueva, the maternal
grandfather of the Governor, came to
Louisiana with the Spanish army.
Governor Wilt was educated in the
public schools of New Orleans, and at
the early age of sixteen entered a
commercial house with the view of
earning his own living and of becom-
ing a merchant. The house falling
shortly after, he was engaged by his
uncle, Clerk of the Second District
Court, to assist him. When the war
broke out and excitement swept
through the land like a tornado he
enlisted at once, though but eighteen
years of age, as private in a company
of the Orleans Artillery, in which he
served for some time, when he was
elected captain of Company E, Chal-
mette Regiment, which was stationed
at Fort jackson. The whole-regiment
was shortly after captured while OF
picket duty. After his exchange, which
soon occurred, Captain Wilt served
on detached duty in the Mississippi
Department. and was subsequently,
transferred to the Trans Mississippi
Department, where he served in the
cavalry and afterward as Provost
Marshal and Commander of the post
of Franklin, Louisiana, un&l the close
of the war. His comrades in the
army bear testimony to his unfinch-
ing courage and deuotion to duty,
| and we cannot resist the conviction
! that upon broader theater of action
! he would, Notwithstanding his ex-
treme youth, have won deserved
| distinction as a leader of men on those
1 grand and historic battlefields where
| the armies of the North and South
met in deadly FRAY. Governor Wilt
was married on October Is, 1862, be-
| fore he had attained his twentieth
year, to Miss Nj. BienVenH, daughter
of Guerinire Bienyenus=@a I5Iahter OF
/ st. Martinsville, on the Teche. His
widow and five children, four girls
! and boy, survive him, the eldest girl
being fourteen years Of age and the
/ son eleven.

An Alleged Alabama Murderer.

Pine Bluff (Ark.) Press, 18th !:
Yesterdays Press contained a short
report of the killing of one Burrell
Poole, in Lincoln county. From
Deputy Sheriff Victor Waldstein, who
has been actively engaged for some
months In working up this case, we
learn the following additional particu-
lars: In 1870, in Pickens county,
Alabama, Burrell Poole waylaid and
killed the Tax-CeIlector of that
county. whose name was Muslin,
while the latter was riding in buggy
attending to his official duties, and, il
is believed, robbed the dead body of
$1,000 in money. It is known that
Poole could have had no other incen-
tive for the crime than that of rob
berry. w. S Muslin, a son of the
murdered man, who now resides al
Columbus, Mississippi, traced the
murderer of his father to Louisiana,
and from there into southeast
Arkansas. Poole, in the meantime,
had located in Lincoln county, and
from some cause took sudden alarm
and fed, leaving his wife and children,
and his whereabouts until recently
was unknown. Upon losing all trace
man turned the matter over TO afr
Victor Waldstein, furnishing him
with a description of Poole and a
requisiliOn from the Governor of Ala
bama for the arrest of the murderer
For several months, after patiently
watching the house where Poole'S
family lived, Mr.. Cunningham, who
was authorized by Deputy Sheriff
Waldstein to watch Poole, came t.
town and reported that Poole was
lettering about in the neighborho OC
of Palmyra. Waldstein gave Gun.
ningham orders to watch and spo
Poole until he could get there. By
some means Cunningham found GU
that Poole was fixing to leave the
vicinity, and he deputized a MAJ
named Felley, who was intimate will
and enjoyed the full confidence O
Poole. Last Thursday morning Eel
| ley approached Poole in the corn crib
while Cunningham secrcted himsel
near by, and Poole being some dis
lance from his shotgun and pistol
which he always carried, FelIey wen
up very close and spoke in a friendly
| tone. Seeing that Poole was off hi
guard and unarmed, FeIley pointed
/ his shotgun at Poole and said: ''Mr
Poole, you are my prisoner; I arres
you for murder committed in Ala
| bama." Whereupon Poole instantly
spraug at Felley and attempted t,
wrench the gun from his grasp, say
ing: Eli be id if I surrender
PlI die before I'll 90 back to Alabama.
Felley, realizing that his own life wa
in danger, fired one barrel of MS gun
putting charge of nine buckshot Il
Poole's left breast, killing him In
stantly. Poole confessed to severa
parties in Lincoln county that he mur
dered Muslin, but had naught agains
| him.
