REV. BRACKEN has now turned his attention
from the saving of souls to the almighty dollar
It is to be hoped that the Elder viii finally sue
coed in finding the real vocation to which the
Lord has called him. Democrat.
Ever since Theodore Bracken re-
ceived the nomination for County
Treasurer, Covington, of the Demo
crat, has exhibited a good deal of
malice towards him, Two weeks ago
we advised our contempory to con
duct a more decent campaign and
avoid these bitter personalities, but,
Mr.. Covington does not take our ad-
vice. The above squib with more of
the same tenor appeared last week.
There is no argument in the above
but sarcasm and deep personal hatred
is apparent. Has it come to this,
that a good moral man, we'll qualified
to fill an important Office, must be
treated contemptuously and be p6rse-
cuted because he has been a minister
Why, Congressman Anderson, of this
State, was a minister. so was Presi-
cent Garfield, Democratic Henry
Clay Dean, and scores of others. The
Democrat is getting very low down
when it attempts to sheer at, and
slur a man because that man is
or was a respected preacher.

POI.ICE NEWS.


The colored swcllS had dance at Bob
Hunts Tuesday night, which ended in a
quarrel. The parties concerned, all col
orcd, were Turner Howell and John
Stockton, who are employed at Mr.. Nc
Intire's butcher shop and Charlie Haines
who works at Mimnaugh's. Turner
kicked a small boy and was thercupon
assaulted by Charlie with beer bottle
He then struck Charlie with his fist. The
affair was stopped by the bystanders
seizing Turner and taking him away
John Stockton then took Turner's part
and cut Charlie so badly with razor in

could fire and the darkey was arrested

A GENEROUS SENTIMENT.
The Knoxville Journal Talks like
a Patriot.

We gladly give place to the following
generous sentiment expressed by the
Knoxville Journal Of yesterday. That
paper is republican, sometimes extreme
in its partlsanship; but on such occas-
ions as the present sad one, is broad,
liberal and magnanimous, The Journal
rightly reads the Southern heart, right,
comprchcnds the reasons for its presen,
sorrow, rightly sees the perfect justice Of
its action; and wisely sees and avows
that there is no disloyalty in it. We
thank the Journal for its manly candor,
and its noble conception of Southern.
character. We commend its example t,
some of our State republican papers.
who could give no more consideration
to an event that moves whole peopl,
than to note it incidentally as an item OF
general news.
The Journal says:
As one who fought against secession
at the ballot-bOX and III the field as
one who never drew Sympatheti,
breath for the Southern rebellion, anu
one who was born in the South and has
always lived in the South, we can cor
daily endorse what is said by Genera
Bayntan, the veteran Washington cor
respondent of the Commercial Gazette,
OF the Southern people in the following
paragraphs:
The mourning for Mr.. Davis is deep
and sincere. 1t is not Il manifestation U.
dlslOyalty. To the Southern mind he
represents their heroic days i'll the field.
and the undauntcd hcrOlsm and sci-saC-
riiiccs of those at home. He was then
leader, and i'll peculiar sense the imper,
sonation their defeats. They will turn
from his grave with no regrets that seccs
sion did not succeed. Think harShlY ana
righteously, as one will and shouid, ol
the crime OF treason, there yet must be
for every manly heart a deep pathos i'll
the spectacle OF great people thus sim
Cerelv mourning fallen leader Of dead
and forever buried cause"
That there is general mourning for
Jefferson Davis throughout the south,
there can be no mistake; but it is not I,
manifestation of disloyalty to the govern
ment OF the United States. The masses
of the men w..o fought i'll the rebel army
are loyal to-day to their country's flag
Around the stars and bars OF the lost
cause cluster, to them, many sacreu
memories; but to them it is dead forever,
and around the stars and stripes cluster
their living hopes and ambitions. They
do not regret that SECESSION didn |
succeed On the contrary, most of them
are glad it did not. No class OF men Oh
earth have a more glorious heritage t.
bequeath to their pOsterity, or a record
for which they have greater reason to bt
proud, than the boys in blue, who's,
strong arms and patriotic valor rescued
the country from the malcstrom OF secs,
sion, and they would not if they could
deprive the confederate veteran OF the
privilege of shedding a tear upon the
grave OF the dead chieItain of their lost
cause--lost forever.

The Supreme Court Confirms the
Death Sentence of Two Men.

Death Sentence of Two Men.
Raleigh Call.
The supreme court yesterday confirmed
the decisions of the superior courts in the
murder cases of Panckey, from Mont
gomery county. and Wilson, from Yancey
county. Both these men were sentenced
to be hanged for murder, and appealed
to the supreme court. The decision this
tribunal will be certified down to the
Governor, who will appoint the time for
the execution of the sentences.
John Wilson shot and killed Tom
Edge at shooting match. Wilson was
drunk, and turning around, without
provocation, told Edge he was going to
kill him. Suiting the action to the word
he shot Edge killing him. The main point
raised i'll Wilson's defence was that he
was drunk and should not be held ac-
countable. The court had no official
sympathy with this objection.
Panckey killed Columbus Leak in a
quarrel which arose from remark made
about a man named Green, by Leak
Panckey resented the remark and after
some words, he shot Leak and killed
him. Both were at the house of a mutual
friend taking dinner.
A decision was also rendered in the
case of the K. & D. road VS.. the r. & 6.
road, involving the right of way for a
railroad track at Henderson. The
decision was in favor OF the X. & G..
company.
The Boyle case is set for this week and
will probably come up for hearing on
Friday.

UNFORTUNATE JOHNsTOwN.
Another Calamity and Thirteen
Persons Killed.

JoHNsTowN, Pa, December 11.-Again
has this ill-fated town been visited with
disaster. This time, instead of water, it
was the cry of fire in the theatre that
sent nearly score of lives into eternity,
and manned fully seventy-tive others,
many of whom are probably fatally in
jured. Parks opera house, where the
catastrophe occurred, is a three story
building situated on Main street, near
the corner of Franklin, and was used as
a dining room for several months after
the flood. The building has for long
time been considered unsafe, and many
people could not be hired to attend any
kind of entertainments there. There
were about five hundred persons, princi-
pally women and children, in the house
last night. About 1870 O'Clock as the
performance was about closing. there
was an alarm of fire sounded by a fire
man stationed on the corner near the
opera house. caused by the discovery OF
fire i'll DR.. Wakehelds' stable in kernvillc.
The alarm being sounded so close by
greatly excited the audience, and they i'm
mediately rushed for the street. They
were met at the entrance by a crowd
from the outside who thought the fire
was in the opera house. The crowds
coming together on the close stairway,
not over six feet wide, and the frantic
efforts of those in the rear of the out
coming crowd caused a terrible jam,
which was made still worse by persons
jumping from the galleries on the heads
of those on the stairs. The hremen had
to turn their hose on those on the out
side to ease the jam; and when the in
jured could be gotten at, the stairway
was found to be piled almost to the
level of the upper floor, with the dead
and dying. Thirteen persons were taken

The German Omccr.
lMurray's.l

The whole life of the German officer
is devoted to his profession. Unless one
has seen what is required OF him it Is
not possible duly to appreciate the pa
triotism and self-sacritice which enable
men of the highest social standing, in
spite Of small pay and terribly slow pro
motion, to endure the monotony of
work under such system, where
the recruits come year after year,
to remain only Just 30 long as
is necessary TO convert them into
efficient soldiers. In addition to the
immense amount OF actual physical
work demanded OF him, it is imperative
that he shall constantly be extending his
theoretical knowledge of war; From
the day on which he obtains his commits
sion he Is bound to DO ever striving to
become master of his profession. Ig-
norance is not tolerated IN any rank, no
matter how exalted: indeed, it may truly
be said that the higher the officer rises
the greater must be bis professional at
tainments, for every one. from the high
est to the lowest, each in his own degree,
must be capable of criticising in a soldier
~ and efficient maDnerall work perform
ed by those under him. Ever under the
immediate eve OF his superior. it is as
impossible that real merit should go un-
rewarded MS it is that Incompetence
or lack of zeal should pass unnoiiced.
We have already seen that the captain
and his subsiterns must be able TO con-
duet the tactical studies which the nom
commissioned officers have to carry out
under their direction. In like manner
the officer commanding battalion must
in his turn he so far the superior III pro-
fesslonal attainmcnis of the officers un-
der his commsnd that they may gain
real instruction from his teaching.
