THE trains are running very irregularly
Of late and on Wednesday the mail was
two hours late, owing 10 an accident TO the
engine
ELEcrIoN Row.-Jim Snead shot Lewis
Richards in drunken row at Husionville
and made his escape with drawn pistol
notwithstanding the valiant Dan Miller
was on hand.
JuDoE BRowS's official majority over
Lyle s5i5 aud the latter sees now that II
WAS not his popularity but disahection
in the democratic ranks that elected him
eight years ago. We hardly suppose he
will ever be candidate for any office
again; an least we wouldn'G would yon?
THE Lancaster people will be sorely dis-
appointed tomorrow, but the failure Of
the United States Circus 10 appear may
save the life Of at least one man; a. IL has
become an old proverb that circus can
not exhibit in that place unless one or
more men bites the dust The U. S. has
been attached in Louisville by various and
sundry parties.
TnE Garrard reps do not seem TO have
voted with any degree Of unantmitY for
their colored brethren for Jailer,as the ma
iorily against him was largely over
that Of the other candidates. Over
here they did not wish TO put themselves
to the test Of voting for negro, 40 they
forced VIM. L. Richardson, worthy col
ored man, from the track by falsely telling
him they did not want any candidate in
that race. Bat they put Henderson
Young on, all the same. That's the way;
negro il good enough TO vote as their
white republican masters dictate, but not
10 vote for-no, no, no.
SQUIRE GARSETT, Of Crab Orchard, play
ed the bulldozsr Monday, and came in five
votes Of being defeated for il. II was
agreed that X. II. Bronaugh, democrat,
and he, republican, should be elected
magistrates without opposition, and the cleo
ton in that race proceeded quietly until a
tenant Of the Squire's came up and voted
| the democratic ticket. This enraged the
Squire, and he told the man right then and
there that he should move from his
premises or be put out. Not liking this
kind Of talk, the democrats put on J. s.
Robinson, and altho' it was late in the day,
/ he came within six votes Of beating the ty-
ranical old landlord, and everybody who be-
| lieves this is free country, and who loves
fair play, would have been delighted il he
I hAd. Mr.. Garrett however, was doing no
more than aping his northern friends.
BASE BALL-The Stanford nine got
away with the Somerseis, and the boys are
much encouraged after their numerous
defects. Two games were played, the
score standing az follows First game,
Stsnfords 20, Somersets II second game,
Stanfords %, Somersels Is. Lee Dunlap,
Of Danville, acted a. Umpire in the first
game, and W. w. Owsley in the second.
]. T. Portmtn score,l for both. The games
we're quite exciting, aud the large crowds Of
ladies and gentlemen that witnessed them
we're much interested. The Somersets, OF
course, had left their best players at home,
but then that is always the case. They al
80 say that the Stanfords cannot come down
there and do them 80, but there are some
doubts expressed whether they can tight
better ON their own dung-hill or not. They
are clever and gentlemanly set Of fellows
and it il probably not their fault that they
cannot play better. The names Of the
club are: o. Thomas, one Of the editors Of
the Repulicdn, W. A. Morrow, the lSTERI'
OR JouRNAL's Somerset scribe; j. A. Bor-
den. T. u. Morrow, Jr., q. W. Sheppard,
$. n. Tomlinson, ] Kinds, G.. p. Porch and
l.. Porch. Our boys did the proper thing by
them, not only paying all expenses, bu'
prosiding nice entertainment at the Ope
ra House at night for their especial benefit
THE Official Vote Of Lincoln county Is
given below. II does not vary materially
from the figures published in our last is
sue. except to make the democratic major
i,y greater than we gave il. An increase
Of 100 in the majority for Hancock doe
not look like this county ia going to thu
republicans very swiftly.
