THE PROPHETS PLANS.
The Story Told in a London Paper by Prom
fnent Clerrvman.


LONDON, Feb. 6--Arabi Pasha seems to have
had something to do with bringing about Cor
don's downfall, if a story told to-day by a prom
inent clergyman is to be credited This clergy
man publishes letter in the afternoon edition
of the Landon Globe about meeting in this city,
last November. an Egyptian who had been
prefect of police under Arab. The prefect and
the preacher became we'll acquainted, and on
Christmas last they had a long conversation con-
corning the Egyptian situation The clergyman
expressed a hope that Lord Wolseley
would soon enter Khartoum. At this
the prefect laughed and said Gen
eral Gordon was perfectly safe where he
was, and Wolseley would not enter Khartoum.
Wilfrid Blunt, the prefect continued was the
only living man able to effect for England a
peaceful solution of the Soudan question. Ell
Mahdi had confidence in him, and would accept
him as mediator. So far as Lord Wolseey's
expedition was concerned the prefect said, Ell
Mahdi had arranged to allow it to approach
Khartoum without any regular opposition The
Prophet might fight at or near Shendy.
but if he did, it would be merely for the purpose
of tempting Wolseley on into further and great
er risks On no account however, would Ell
Mahdi fight a decisive battle until the British
forces were massed in the vicinity of Khartoum.
General Gordon, the prefect insisted, was al
ready at the time of this conversation, virtually
prisoner. His so-called defense of Khartoum
was mere form, as Ell Mahd was not engaged
in any attack on the town, because it
was practically in his power, and he
could take it whenever he pleased. The
Prophets plan to allow Lord Wolseley's
army to approach Khartoum, then enter the city,
take possession, and fight Wolseley from that
great point of vantage. The prefect always in
sisted that Gordon would not be killed by Ell
Mahdi The clergyman says he now recalls this
almost prophetic discourse by Arabs prefect of
police especially as he has ascertained that the
man, while in London, was there as an emissary
of El Mahdi's The last words the man said to
the clergyman were: General Gordon will not
be killed. LIE Mahdi vous fera payer par le nez
pour Gordon"

his existence at Khartoum has been the subject
of the gravest anxiety and the progress of the

If Gen. Gordon has oeen killed, his death will
be crowning sacrifice Of life of almost con.

profession, he has become famous in seeking the
ends of peace through war. He began his mill

Wolseley carte blanche to take any measures he
deems necessary for the rescue of Gen. Gordon,

the liveliest joy everywhere. Groups of people

The following is,a synopsis of the
opinion of the Court of Appeals, in
the case of Champ Gist from Hopkins
county:
"Champ Gist VS.. the Commonwealth:
First-Upon the trial of appellant,
for murder, it was error to instruct
the jury that If they believed the kill
ing was without malice, "but unlaw-
fully and willfully done, they should
find the accused guilty ofmanslaugh-
ter. The jury should have been in
Structed as TO what it takes in law to
constitute manslaughtcr.
Second-It was error to require the
jury to find that the accused was sun
lawfully assaulted, set upon or at
tackled" by the deceased, before they
could excuse him upon the ground of
self-defense.
John Feland, Polk Lalloon, Gordon
and Dempsey for appellant; p, W.
Hardin for appellee
The sentence of Gist TO Two years
in the penitcntiary is thus reversed
and the case will be tried again next
October 1t is expected that he will
be admitted to bail.

The people of Hopkinsville will
lose their golden opportunity if they
fail to build the Hopkinsville e Ca.
dir railroad. 1t can be done at com
paratively little expense and will be
the means of greatly augmenting the
prosperity of our city. We are in
formed that the first four miles could
be graded and tied for from 1900 to
$1,000 per mile and that the probable
cost of the 81 miles to the C. & o.,
will not be likely to exceed $4,000 per
mile. This can be greatly lcssened if
the people along the line will contrib
ute to the enterprise by furnishing
ties, right of way, etc, and there is
no reason why the work should not
be pushed through this season. If
our people will but make a deter
mined effort, we will have connec-
ton with the G. & U. road long be.
