Dying in a Home.
New York Tribune.

Samuel Carr, age seventy~three,
brother>in law Of Commodore Van
derbilt, was buried last week in the
Moravian Cemetery at New bort,
near the Vanderbilt vault. He was
known on Staten Island as Sammy
Carr. He married sister of Com
modore Vanderbilt's first wife, whose
name was johnson, and for many
years he occupied farm at News
bort which belonged to the Commo-
dore, He subsequently kept the old
Bulls Head Tavern in Mortified
and was also keeper of the tollgate
on the Fresh Xiii plank road. After
the death of his wife, he became
pauper and was an inmate of the
Richmand County PoorhouBe for
nearly twenty years. A few months
ago he was taken from that institu-
ton by Cornelius Vanderbilt, and
placed in the Home for Incurables,
where he died. His funeral expenses
were paid by the Vanderbilt family.

and there should be no trouble in
their formation, as there is absolutee
ly no division of interests among the
people, except those of a personal
nature, and these are not worthy of
consideration. West Tennessee
would then make up the eighth, ninth
and tenth districts.
Politically considered, the first
and second districts are bound to be
Republican, without outrageous ger
1ymandering. This will be conceded.
II fairly laid off, the third will be
close Neither party will have a
large majority, but the Re
publieans are entitled to it.
The fourth, fifth, seventh,
eighth and ninth are conceded to the
Democrats. The tenths should be Re
publican. These are political consider
ations, and we repeat if personal
considerations are lost sight of there
will be no trouble in promptly
reaching fair and just conclusion.

AN ANOMALOUS CHAPTER.

The killing of Jesse James by Bob
Ford, and the circumstances under
which it WAS done, contributes an
anomalous chapter to the criminal
history of this country. Jesse james
was bold outlaw. He and his
gang perpetrated some Of the bold
est and most daring robberies ever
related in history or romance. For
ten years they have defed the civil
authorities, not only of the State of
Missouri, but other States. Gov,
errors, sheriffs, marshals and rail
road and express officials have con~
spired to effect his arrest, and
thousands of dollars have been spent
to accomplish it. But through the
exercise of unusual shrewdness, tact
and courage he has escaped the Wig
lance of his pursuers. To-day he
was hunted down in one locality and
to morrow, hundred of miles away,
he and his confederates
would pounce down on a
bank or an express train
and triumphantly ride away
with his booty amounting to thou
sands
1t seems unaccountable that among
all the officers of the law, aided by
| the shrewdest and most skillful de-
tectives, none could be found skill
ful enough OF brave enough
to arrest him in lawful way. At
last the Governor of Missouri, by the
offer of money and immunity from
punishment, secures the services of q
confederate, who had been James
partner in his career of murder and
robbery, himself an outlaw, who suce
ceeding by assassinating his former
associate in crime. Bob Ford did
the work. He is arraigned for the
murder of which he is guilty, pleads
guilty, is sentenced to be hanged anc
receives an unconditional pardon
from the Governor immediatel,
after his sentence is pronounced.
No one grieves over James taking
off, that is, no law-abiding person
but there is something revolving il
the manner in which it was done
1t is an admission that the laws 0
the land could not b
enforced in this case in ordinary way
all admission law abiding people d.
not like to make. It would hav
been more satisfactory if James ha,
been arrested by a lawful officer, no
by robber and murderer, and con
victed and punished according t
the forms prescribed by law.

THE REDISTRICTING QUESTION.


There ought to be no trouble in
agreeing upon a bill laying the State
of Tennessee off into ten Congress
sional districts and would be none
if members of the Legislature will
lose sight of personal consideration
and look only to equality and con
veni ence. Over the first district
there should be no controversy. Be
gin with the eastern boundary of the
State and take the counties as they
come until the requisite population
is reached, or as near thereto as pos
sible. Then take the counties ad-
Joining the first and those lying
along or near the East Tennessee
Virginia, the Knoxville and Ohio
and the Knoxville and Augusta roads
until sufficient population is obtain
ed for the second district. Then
the third district to be composed OF
counties west of the second, running
square across the State, lying along
the East Tennessee Virginia and the
Cincinnati Southern roads. This
makes district easy of access, and
will be composed principally OF East
Tennessee counties, with the coun-
ties of Pickett, Overton, White,
Grundy and Van Buren, in Middle
Tennessee. The next four districts
would be between the Cumberland
Mountains and tine Tennessee River

IT is. reported and generally be~
lieved that the Tennessee bondhold-
ers are on the eve of presenting a
proposition for compromise of the
State debt on the basis of sixty cents
on the dollar, with interest at the
rate of four, five and six per cent.
We cannot say how We would con
slider such q proposition until we
see how it comes, and where from.
If voluntary proposition should be
made from the holders of a respectable
amount of the bonds, we should con
slider it the duty of the Governor to
call the Legislature in extra session
and submit it. 1t all depends on
this. If only few hundred thouss
and bonds were offered, or a few
millions, by spectators, not bona
fde holders, we would pay nc atten-
ton to it. But if the proposition
comes from the bondholders them
selves, we cannot see how any honest
man could oppose so reasonable re
quest.
We have had enough of dickering
with our creditors. They under>
stand, or supposed to understand
the situation If they, of their own
free will and accord come forward
with compromise, they doubtless
believe that to be to their interest,
But if they do not we would go on
and make arrangements for paying
the interest ON the deDt as it stands.
These are our sentiments.

The blood is the foundation OF
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the onIp sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich ths
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition :. and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.

the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from

not been seen at all at the store. Both. now
thoroughly alarmed, found on hurrying home
that the barn doors were locked, a thing I'M
usual. On entering Mr.. Bartlett was found
suspended by rope to a beam. Life was
extinct. The impression is that about nine
o'clock he locked the smaller barn door and
put the key in its customary place, and after
locking the larger barn door on the inside
committed the deed. The rope was tied about
his neck with an intricate knot which, it is
stated, he could not have tied, had he been in
a sound state of mind.
