The "NOvember Air wave"


The great wave Of cold air reported yes.
terday as then descending over the Wes'
tern plains bids fair TO make a signal ful'
flment of the Heralds prediction OF Sun
day last The barometer in this wave rose
yesterday TO 1914 inches in Montana, and
the thermometer fell over twenty-five de-
grees below the freezing point The
pressure behind this surge Of polar air is
therefore high enough TO force II entirely
across the continent and far into theNorth
Atlantic Ocean.
This outrush Of Arctic air is doubtless
part at least Of the"November atmospher-
ic wave" long since noticed by Mr.. Brit
and Sir John Hirsehel as a periodical
phenomenon. 1t is, as Herschel said, "a
great breaker of air which sweeps in No
yember across the whole North Atlantic
and the European continent" having
illustrated its ability to make
this long sweep in tie
famous Crimean hurricane so disastrous TO
he allied armies on November IA, IL o.
As the pressure is now low in front Of the
eastwardly advancing wave, and 1t will
consequently meet with little resistance,
European vessels leaving our Eastern
ports to-day and tomorrow win be ex-
posed to its furious westerly winds before
or when reaching the Newfoundland
banks, and of our coasts il will lend dan
gerous intensity TO any passing depres-
sion. It's frosty breath will also be felt In
the tobacco and cotton districts Of the
South, where every precaution should be
taken TO protect the yet unharyested
crops. But perhaps the most important
forewarning needed is to the general pub
lie to prepare for the sharp change Of
temperature, which is usually followed
by rise in tho death rate from autumnal,
especially pulmonary diseases.

1t has been clearly demonstrated, thai
the present is an era Of better feeling, and
more friendly intercourse, between the

DISGRACEFUL ASSAULT
In n Young LRdy's Presence at
jackson, Tenn.
Tribune and Sun, IS.

Last Monday night difficulty occurred
in the parlor Of respectable young lady
of this city between her two suitors,
Messrs. Nj lett and Moss. Moss was
calling on the young lady and was in
conversation with her when Niblett,
who it seems, imagined that he had a
previous claim 10 her society for the
evening, walked in and caught Moss by
the ear and with drawn pistol ordered him
to walk. This Moss objected to and
struck Niblett in the face, and before
Niblett could recover from the blow,
drew his knife and inflicted several ugly
wounds. Both young men are ordinarily
quiet and peaceable, as far as we know,
and the affair is much regretted. The
parties we're taken in hand by the au-
thorities, The young lady is greatly EN-.
barrassed by the occurrence and out OF
courtesy we withhold her name.
Another story is that Mr. Niblett and a
party Of young men were passing the
house and they found Mr.. Moss there,
and Niblett told his party to wait that
he was going in and lead Moss out by the
ear, and that they came outside Of the
house, when the cutting was done, Such
are the reports that we got Of the affair

HIS LABORs ENDED.
Death of Chancellor John W.
Burton at Murfreesboro.
A Sketch OF His Private and
Public Career.


Banner, l6,
Hon. John w. Burton, Chancellor OF
this district, died this morning at two
o'clock, at his home in Murfreesboro, from
nervous prostration after weeks illness.
His death was quite unexpected, aud the
announcement was received with sadness
and regret
He was appointed Chancellor Of the
Fourth Chancery Division by Governor
james ID. Porter, soon after Hon. A. s..
Marks was nominated for Governor in
1878 Judge Burton was again elected 10
the position Of Chancellor Of the Fourth
Division in 1878 by tho popular vote.
Judge Burton oRee served on the Supreme
bench, to which position he was appointed
in the stead Of Judge A. o. p. Nicholson
during the latter's illness, He was man
OF great force Of character and univer-
sally popular He served as private
in the Confederate ranks. He
was united in marriage to a Miss Frier-
SON. the daughter Of an old and hon0red
family Of Shelbyyille His brother, DIR.
G. w. Burton, once Baptist missionary
to China, now resides in Louisville.
Judge Burton's son, Ewing, has Just re-
tired from the position Of Mayor Of Muir
freesboro. Judge Burton was in the city
Of Nashville week or two ago. He had
not been in good health for some time,
but was able to attend TO his ordinary
duties. His death was unexpected and
was a great shock to his friends. 1t is be.
lieved the immediate cause of his death
was pneumonia. Judge Burton possessed
a mind that peculiarly fitted him for the
pro ession which he adorned. Asaiurist
he had no superior in the State. As a
local DICTATOR or orator he occupied
a front rank with the brilliant men Of the
hour. His power before a jury was almost
He swayed and shaped
their minds by the very force and power
and sweetness Of his eloquence. He was
a man of generous impulses, and his
mind was broad and liberal. He pos
sessed many peculisrities of character, but
they were natural and in no wise akin 10
assumed eccentricties.
The funeral viii occur tomorrow. The
remains will be inferred at Murfreesboro,
the home Of his family. Murfreesboro
has lost good citizen, and Tennessee one
Of her brightest legal minds.
In the Criminal Court this afternoon
Mr.. ingalls, made a motion to adjourn
and allow the attorneys TO attend Judge
Burton's funeral tomorrow. He made
few appropriate remarks on the character
ofthe deceased. Attorney General Wash
ngton, in seconding the motion, paid
iigh tribute Of respect to the deceased
wrists memory.
Judge QuArles and Judge Allen also
made timely and appropriate remarks,
.fter which the Court adjourned until
Monday.
Judge Allen and a number of the Nash,
vile bar will leave tomorrow To attend
he funeral.
