KENTUCKY has Just had one of the
singular murder trials characteristic OF
that State. Congressman Thompson
killed one Davis in n most brutal fashion.
andhi counsel have succeeded in making
out that he was insane. Even his own
State papers, and Democratic ones at
that. say the murder was unjustifiable
But something may perhaps be p%ardoned
to Thompson by reason of his surround
ings. A Washington journal thus
describes Harrodsburg, his home:
Yankee enterprise would be regarded
as little less than high crime in the COM
munity. Morgan's memory and the lost
cause are sacred there. Clashing fac
tions did not get through fighting the
war of the rebellion in Harrodsburg UNI
til four or five years ago, n neighbor-
hood feuds growing out of the war re-
suited in scores of violent deaths in and
about the town. For years after Lees
surrender the place had a very hard
name, Il reputation that will cling to il
for a generation at least. The inhabi-
tants, in showing strangers about the
town, point out with great pride and fire.

CHARLES a. DANA. editor of the New
York Sun, has recently been interview
ed by a representative of the San
Francisco Chronicle with reference to
the political situation, especially as
regards national affairs. In answer to a
query as to who are the possible DEM
ocratic candidates for the presidency
Mr.. Dana said:
As a general thing it is never possible
to tell beforehand the candidate OF
either party. There are exceptional
cases. as in 1867. when it was certain
that the Republicans must nominate
Grant, and in 1875. when it was certain
that the Democrats must nominate
Tilden. But in ordinary cases such a
degree of certainty is impossible. ]
don't think there is a sensible man who
will now say with confidence who will
be the candidate of either party. The
Democratic party has some very avail
able men in all parts of the country.
Mr.. Mcdonald of Indiana is a good deal
spoken of. Mr.. Hendricks has his
friends. Mr.. Bayard has many warm
friends-probably more personal adj
mirers than any other man in the party
Gen. Palmer of Illinois has a great deal
of strength among the people. Mr.,
Thurman is one of the ablest men in the
country, and is everywhere held in we'll
deserved esteem. If the State of Ohio
should unite in his support in the Dem
ocratic convention, his nomination would
be assured. But | am sorry to say tina
L cannot now see any prospect of such {
union. There are others who might b'
mentioned who would be available Il;
candidates and who might be relied
upon to manage the affairs of the Gov
eminent with prudence and success
but there Is no man of whom we cal
say that he is sure to be the candidate

Guiteau'S Ghost,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. Warden
Croker, of the district jail, says he is
not yet free from the Guiteau bust
ness. Often some cranky prisoner in
the jail declares he saw Guiteau in a
vision, and a night or two or ago a
prisoner confined in an adjoining cor
ridor of the same wing in which the
famous assassin was Gagged created a
commotion IN the Jail at midnight by
shouting that he had just seen Gui-
teau. He could not be induced to
think he was deluded by a temporary
alteration Of mind, but maintained
that Guiteau came into his cell and
stood there for some time, so frighten-
ing the occupant that he was speech
less for awhile. He still sticks to the
story, but the jail authorities still say
that he is only oneof the many cranks
who have become temporarily insane
in the jail by brooding over the crime
and punishment of the assassin.

refinery company, and who holds the

the condition that all shipments

This is equivalent to a monopoly of
the carrying trade of both ways, as
other vessels going there will not get
a return cargo.
