name is household word wherever
the science of medical jurisprudence
Is known among men, and one who Is
known TO be one of the most distin-
guished and, as l am told, ,he is one of
the most incorporating Republi-
cans in Kentucky. l allude to DR..
Theodore S. Bell, of Louisville, who.
after a full review of every fact, and
of his own personal knowledge, de-
clares that so far from meriting rep
rehension, ''he deserves and should
receive the gratitude of every good
citizen of Kentucky" Whether this
is true or not, you are as well pre-
pared to judge as myself.

Does the colored citizen for whose
vote Col +. u. Morrow is now plead
ing know that had his wishes prevail
ell the negro would never have been
given the right of suffrage? 1t is an
indisputable fact as the Journal of the
Senate of 1865 and '66, page 22l will
convince any one who chooses to ex-
anime. 1t shows that on the 22d of
January 1866, Col. Morrow was
moved to present string of rcsolu-
tions which were referred to the
Committee on Federal. Relations, of
which the following is.one:
6. Resolced, That the Congress of
the United States has no power, un-
der the second section of the thir-
teenth amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the United States, to pass any
law granting the right of suffrage in
the States to persons of African dcs-
cent, and that we are opposed to gran
ting suffrage to persons of that class

Farmers are done cutting wheat
and are harvesting oats and cleaning
out their tobacco. Wheat is shriveled
very much and farmers say there
will not be over two thirds of crop
made in these parts. Oats are very
good, better than common, though
only few farmers have large crops,
but they are saving large quantities
of clover hay. Corn is looking fine
ly now and if the rains hold out large
and heavy crops will reward them in
the end.
