MEMPHIS. July 25.-Particulars
were rcceiyed here this evening Of d
horrible crime committed at Oakland
Miss. on Thursday by Henry Nance
who is one of the most desperate
characters in Miss ssippi. lie had
been on a prolonged spree and while
still under the iiinuence Of liquor he
murdered his wife IN the presence OF
his three children by shooting her
down. When the officers with posse
of citizens went to his house and sur
rounded it, Nance came to the front
door with his gun in his hand, and
said. II am determined not to be tax
en-. You needn't come here, for
intend to kill myself in a few minutes
ana before anybody could get inside
be shot himself in the head, INJECTING
wounds that proved fatal. TIe had
a handsome home, aud by his act leaves
his three children orphans.

The republican Independents are
very much enraged because the de-
mocrats propose to award to the color
ed voters equal political rights by APP
pointing colored democrats to such Of,
fees as they are capable Of filing.
They know that democratic principles
nre best calculated to advance the in
forests Of the colored people. " ho are
almost exclusively agricuIturists, and
are afraid they viii 50 over to the
democratic party now that the repub-
lican promises, and their predictions
that they would be deprived of their
civil and political rights when the
democrats got into power, have alike
been proven false. The republican
hold upon the colorel voter is gradu-
ally slackeuing and they are mad
about 1t. Don't fret, Mr.. Republican
the negro has at last Jouud you cut,
and il VIII dc no good.

MIR Jno Dickson, one of the school
directors of the 10Th district, called
on us last Saturday and in converse
ton with him we learned that Of the
public schools now being taught in
his district, glx are III charge Of teach
ers who held frst>cIass certificates
This is an excellent showing for the
10th district and evinces the fi,ct tina;
the directors in that district feel deep
interest in the public schools: And
right here we will take OCCASION to
say. that there are too many persons
holding certificates authorizing them
to teach in the public schools of this
county, who are not qualified fer their
work, Nome but first class teachers
should be employed. Directors gem
orally seem to thIuk thst anyone who
can read and write tolerably well are
qualified TO teach school. That is a
grave mistake. They should be we'll
qualified and well paid. The youths
Of the country are being done a gross
injustice by being put IL charge Of the
teachers who are not fit to teach. A
great deal Of valuable time is lost, be
sides squandcring large sums of the
public school funds. The first step to
be taken, necessary to correct this
evil, is the election Of good men to the
position Of school directors.

on ENTTON.

The Bulletin heartily concms in The
suggestion Of tile American that only
one invention be called is nominate
candidates foe Supreme Court Judges
and Governor rezt year. We heard
no good reason assigned for having
two conventions, nor haye we been
able to conceive OF any; while on the
other hand, quite a number Of good
and sufficient reasons can be assigned
for having only one. The conYcntjon
could be help in May and candidates
for al Of the rlac7s 10 lie filed during
1886 nominated. They would than
have ample time % arrange for all the
canvassing, which candidates for judi
cial positions ought to do before the
FIRST Thursday in August. It IS true
the candidate for governor would be
made known little earlier than it is
usually done, bat that cannot be said
to be an objection. Ifonly one con-
vontion is held, it viii be we'll attended
by the democrats from the rural dis
tricts and the chances Of the denio
cratic party's beng nlisropresented
Will be thereby greatly lossonoi. Such
a convention az that hold On The 20th
Of June, 1882, who's tie state demoe-
rAcy was fully ana faithfulIY repre-
sentcd, can be safely calculated upon.
But II the delegates are called upon 20
attend two conventions, the probable
ity Is that neither of them will be
thoroughly representative. Gentle
men who so to conventions on tickets
which cost them nothing, but are fur
nished by railroad bnmmers Oh account
Of their known fcaity to the interests
OF corporations, don't care how of;ou
they arc called upon to So to Nash
vile at some one else's expense. But
they are not exactly the kind Of doc
gates who should represent the demo
cratic party in this state at this time.
Every shade Of political sentiment
in the democratic party in tie state
should be represented in its conven-
ton, but only in the proportion that
their voting strength bears to that Of
the whole party. This equanimity
can and Will be preserved if only one
convention is held, because the repre-
sentatives of all interests eau afford
the expense OF one trip to the capitol
Oh that business, but they cannot If
ford the expense Of two trips. SOFT il
clear that the delegates who go there
on free passes will have an undue ad
vantage oyer those who pay thiol
way, and the corporations will be
more lrrgelY represented than then
nGmbers viii Justly entitle thom to il
more than one convention is held.
This is an advantage they should moi
seek, and seeking should be denied
! Let US have one convention IN whict
every shade Of political sentiment in
the party can be fairly and hones,ly
represented.

Concerning the scheme to ''relegate
the railroad question to the counties, >
the Bolivar Bulletin quietly observes:
II is not a local, bat state issue.
Then to relegato It to the counties and
have democratic candidates represent
ing both sides Of that issue, and one
republican in the field against them
indeed it requires no othor prophet to
forotell the result. Itwould be but u
repetition of the experiment tried in
the state canvass in 1880, and re-
publican legislature would be the re-
suit
