A Knock Down.

A great deal of excitement was created
last evening, about o'clock, on Second
street by knock down which occurred in
front of a saloon. The cause of the diff.
Guilty was that prolific one-politics. B. F.
Shemwell, who lives on Flat creek, six
miles south of here, while conversing with
Jim Powell, who resides in the city, and
was q union soldier, made a remark de-
cidedly derogatory to a man who wore the
blue, when Powell forgot, in the heat of
passion, that Shemwell was greatly his su-
perior, and dealt him blow in the face
which felled him to the pavement. Then
some one in the crowd began striking at
Powell, a number rushed in, and 1t looked
for a time as though a riot might ensue,
but Marshal Shy and Officer Barnett ap-
peared on the scene, dispersed the crowd
and arrested the beligerents, who immedI-
ately gave bond for their appearance Mon.

A Sedalian Complimented.

Sedalians have a faculty of holding
their own and keeping up their "end of
the row." no matter where they NAV be
thrown. At the annual meeting of the
Illinois State Board Of Underwriters, held
at Chicago last Wednesday, DIR. Robert
Zener, for years an insurance agent in this
city, now a resident of Chicago, was elect
ed Vice President, having previously held
the position of Secretary and Treasurer Of
the Board. Alter all business had been
transacted, the retiring President. Major
J. NJ. Hasford, in the name of the board.
presented the retiring Secretary and Treas
urer, DR.. Robert Zener, with a very ele-
CANT silver tea and water service. Major
Hasford's remarks were few, but were suf-
6cient to convey to DIR. Zerer the hearty
thanks of the members of the board for his
faithfulness, and to assure him of their
high appreciation of him. DR.. Zener re-
sponded briefly and feelingly. The set is
composed of tea pot, coffee pot, hot
water pot, sugar bowl, cream pitcher, re-
fuse bowl, and water pitcher and goblet,
handsomely decorated with gold and
bronze without and lined with gold There
was also a handsomely decorated silver
salver.

Frisco road, SO says General Freight Agent
Gale, will run special stock trains to suit
the demand. At present there hasn't been
any war, nor 10 any expected, the Chicago
prophets to the contrary notwithstanding.
Col. Eddy, superintendent of the X.
& T., was in Fort Worth on Friday, and
the following interview With him was tel
egraphed to the St. Louis Republican of
yesterday: Col ]. n. Eddy states that he
is soon to retire from the presidency of
the Fort Worth and Denver railroad. the
Missouri Pacific requiring all his atten-
ton. He thinks w. Pearsoll, of New
York, the vice president. will succeed him.
He says he does not believe Jaw Gould
cares to purchase the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fe, or that he could not get it if he
so desirt d. In reply to the question about
the rumOIed early extension of the Fort
Worth Il Denver, 400 miles north
westward IRON Wichita Falls, President
Eddy said "When the road is extended,
it will be to Colorado, and as no one is
paying much attention to the matter, do
not believe this extension or completion
will be made. Gen. Dodge, in CONVERSE
ton with me some time since, said that no
move will he made until $4,000 was paid
up for the work, and the feeling in New
York is such at present that the money
will not be raised very quickly, but the
road will go through some day" Regard
ing railroad legislation by the late legisla-
ture he said: ~ have not paid much at
tentiOn to it, but the and AGENT law is
good thing for both roads and people. A
man should buy his railroad ticket before
getting on the cars, just as he buys his
circus or theatre ticket before he enters.
Mr.. Eddy was accompanied by United
States Senator Jos. E. Brown, of Georgia,
en- route to Waco, to attend the Baptist
conference and to make prospecting tour
of Texas. The senator would not say
much on national politics, except that he
thought that the republican and democrat
L. presidential nominees q matter of mere
speculation as yet that all calculations
as to men and politics might be upset as
late as . month before the convention.

Last Sundays BAzOo made mention of
the examination held the day previous BY
County School superintendent r. M.
Scotch, of applicants for position as
teachers in the public schools. In all, ten
applicants were examined, but two, Miss
Lucy Bspple, of this city, and Miss Nettle
Draper, Of Dresden. we're given certificates
as teachers. The other eight have been re-
jected, although seven out of the eight are
already teaching, which is contrary to
Law, and it is quite probable they will be
eniOined at an early day.

crown their efforts in this, as it has on all
past occasions.

Twice Orphaned.

We clip the following from a special
sent from this place to the New Orlean s
Picayune on April 9th. We are glad to
be able to state that the pretty, innocent
little sufferer mentioned is fast improving,
and will in the end permanently recover
from her painful injuries.
The compliment to DIR. and Mrs. john
son is we'll deserved This is only one of
scores of their generous acts to the many
across whose pathways have fallen the
sombre shawdows of misfortune:
A touching incident this evening was
the arrival from Beauregard of Emma
Strain, a sweet little orphan girl of six
years, who had her thigh fractured in the
general destruction of Sunday. She was
in care of Rev. DIR. II. +. johnson, Presi-
dent of Whitworth College, and was borne
carefully provided. To complete the pic
ture of helpless innocence, was a beautiful
little kitten Nesting in her arms, to which
she has CLING during his misfortunes as an
inseparable companion. The little girl
was an orphan before the storm, but she
was orphaned second time by its robbing
her of her protectors, and now DIR. John
son, one of the noblest and most generous,
as well as one of the most learned and
influential of Mississippians, has taken her
and will adopt her into his own family.
Both Dr. and Mrs. johnson call her Their
little treasure, and the latter, whose ma
ture is even fuller of the milk of human
kindness than that of her distinguished
husband, will prove to the little waif q
veritable Christian mother.

of the needy are very destitute indeed,
having lost houses, bedding, clothing, pro
visions and every thing which they pos
scssed. Ii is our understanding-an il
seems nothing more than fair-that they
should receive their pro rata Of the funds
sent By the benevolent from all quarters 90
Beaurcgard and Wesson for distribution
among the storm sufferers Of these places
and the sections contiguous there to. We
have no doubt Judge Bridwell, Of Beaurc-
gard, and the Red Cross Society at Ncssnn,
will take the same view of the case and
govern themselves accordingly.
Brookhaven will extend considerable
assistance direct, but her ability to help
is materially lesscnel by the fact that
many of our people had already assisted
Beauregard and Wesson to the extent of
their ability before this additional claim
upon their bounty was known. Neverthe-
less, this is time when Large charity is
demanded, and we hope every one will
help these poor people to the utmost extent
of his means.
