Collar, w. T., Register Armstrong tele-
graphed the facts of the destruction of
tho records to Washington. Ono hour
and half after the telegram was re-
ceived. stationery and official blanks
were shipped to the Office, and the whole
Typographical forco were set to work
making maps from records to supply the
place Of those destroyed. A telegram
dated the 18th inst. said there would be
completed in two weeks. and the C0lfax
Land Office would be al well equipped
in completeness of maps and records as
before the fire. Ordinarily it takes from
three to six months to re- establish land
office, whore all tho records are de-
stroycd. Commissioner mcfarland de-
serves credit for the prOmptness with
which he moved in the matter.-Demo-

Tn PnorLx EsDossxD.-In referring
to the little episode which took place in
Seattle on the evening Of July 10Th. the
San Francisco Aifa speaks az follows:

Immediately answered By 80 msmbsfs
of the Commftte Of Safety. The state
of things was explained quickly. One
hundred of the citizens were sworn IN ~
Deputy Marshals To act under the Chief
of Police. The result was very satifac-
tory. no trouble vas experienced IN visit
inc the quarters Of the scoundrels, and
persuadinR under the threats OF sus-
tension Of the rules 10 leave
the city on the following morning.
No one except those who are familiar
With our repididly Notwithstanding
on the Sound knows how they are cursed
with the criminal dreRs Of humanity.
This order to leave at short notice Is
better mode than IynchinR, and Seattle
folks seem TO think 50 too. The ostra-
cissd scoundrels will, of course, visit
some other community, but they will be
tracked everywhere until every town IA
too warm for them, or they are relegated
to their natural homes in the State pris-

under no conditions should he violated

week upon change of schedule. They

ends of the road as before; the change
being in the start and in the taking of q
half hours more time on the run. Be-
fore they were making time entirely too

many mishapa, as the running over of

Rhea County Matters

A Rhea County correspondent,
ga. S. L., writes us as follows, un-
der recent date:
One of the most horrible affairs
ever recorded here, took place Christ
mas day, on Walden's Ridge, on the
Tennessee and Sequatchee Valley
Railroad, in which one man had his
skull bursted with an axe, in the
hands of Henry Coles, colored. HAYS
ing become intoxicated, four
white men, old man Hawkins and
his son, and old man Russell
and his son, armed themselves with
axes, pistols, ETC., and proceeding to
the house of Henry Coles, broke
open his door. He gathered his axe
and gave one a lick on the head,
which felled him to the ground. Drs.
WATSON and Alternately were sum-
moned. The other three men were
arrested by Sheriff Mcpherson and
lodged in Jail.
One of the first SHOWS of the season
fell here December 80, 1881.
Farm work has been very much re-
tarded this fall, on account of the rainy
weather. Wheat has been very much
damaged.
The people of Rhea county are
divided on the recent decision of the
Supreme Court on the State debt
question, some favoring it and others
opposing it.

OFFICE SEEKING.

It has been the habit of Northern
Republicans to upbraid those of the
South, for their zeal in hunting Office
They have sometimes affected disgust
at the action of Southern Republic
cans, and we are frank to confess that
they have sometimes had good reason
for it. But they have manifested a
greater capacity for discover
ing the mote in their brothers
eye than they have to pluck the beam
from their own eyes. They likewise
have their unseemly scrambles after
Office, and instead of improving,
they have retrogaded and are setting
their Southern brethren very nau-
seous example. Unless they mend
their ways, we shall deny their
