The activity of the Civil Service
Commission in behalf of republican
federal office holders is just little
out of place at this time. Still, if
il results in sufficiently opening the
eyes of the democrats of the Fifty
third Congress TO cause them TO
quietly fail to make one appropria-.
ton, all will be forgiven.

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River, in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been established
from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the Attain
tic & Pacific Railroad, making the
trip from Flagstaff to the most impos-
ing part of the Canon in less than IL
hours. The stage fare for the round
trip is only $40 90, and meals and lodg-
ings are provide throughout the trip
at a reasonable price. The view of the
Grand Canon afforded at the terminus
Of the stage route is the most stupen-
duous panorama known in nature.
There is also a trail at this point lead
ing down the Canon wall, more than
5000 feet vertically, to the river below.
The decent Of the trail is a grander ex-
perience than climbing the Alps, for in
the bottom Of this terrific and sublime
chasm are hundreds of mountains
greater than any Of the Alpine range.
A book describing the trip to the
Grand Canon, illustrated by many full
page engravings from special photo
graphs, and furnishing all needful in
formation, may be obtained free upon

To the Democracy Of the Fourth COp.-

On the 23rd day Of July last I i'd
dressed to you the following card:
81 In reply to the calls, both public and pri-
a made me to
District, will say that whatever may be my
desire to be member OF Congress, yet that
desire Is not sufficiently strong to induce me
frends r. sa Tor the nomination sGuae VIII" my parry
am not willing TO become candidate In
the sense that a solicitation for the nOmina-
tion must be necessary. However, am not
ataa Sa Of s nGnSf Fhf IN Se Sd
ment of the Democracy Of the District, am
the proper person by and through whom IT
shall give battle to Its enemies, will accept
the trust With fS OF Its honors
Since the publication of this card,
many of my friends have been, and are
now urging me to make q canvass of
the District. I have persistently re-
fused, though l found It extremely diff
ticult not to comply with the demands
of my friends; and my unwillingness to
do as they have desired. is the only
source of regret have in the matter.
From present Indications, owing to
the large number Of candidates, the
nominee will be one born out Of a wran-
gle, and 1 am unwilling to accept a
nomination thus attained.
In order to set my candidacy at rest,
I now repeat II am not a candidate"
and add that my name will not be pre-
sented to the Convention.
I scarcely know how to thank my
friends for their support and the inter-
est they have manifested in my behalf,
and I will have to content myself with
the simple expressions OF my gratitude.
Tho action Of the Convention will re-
ceive my warmest endorsement, and I
shall not only vote tor the nominee,
whoever he may be, but am willing, If
desired, to canvass the District in his
behalf. Respectfully,

Ing. There will be representatives
from these stables at our Fair, and the
sMslsslsslppi boys will show the people
Inc horsemen at the track furnished
entertainment for the ..old Vetsn with
some OF their fast horses. The track
was muddy and slow, but murmurs Of
admiration went up as horse after
horse flashed by the stand. Mr.. A.
Harold exhibited fast miles with
.''Mamie b." owned by Mr.. r. Durfy
and himself-with Belle" owned by
MI; Watson, Of Durant, and with
"Aldeban," owned by DR.. A. G. Kuy-
Kendall, OF this city. Mr.. Twilly went
speeding along with Mr.. Marcellus
Dubard's ''Prince Hal" Mr.. J. T.
Gamers ''Hill-Billy" and with "Wal-
thall," DR.. Hughes, splendid yearling.
1t was an enjoyable exhibition.
To illustrate the profit in the right
sort Of farming, we will state that q
short time since, we heard Mr.. G. B.
Jones say that he owned a mare which
has dropped colts for him which he
had sold and valued in his hands at one
thousand dollars, and Mr.. L. G. Maiet,
also present, said that he too had re-
allied as much If not more from mare
he owned. Both gentlemen, and all
who heard the conversation, agreed
that such results beat cotton to death.
Would that more of our people would
do as we'll, and make Grenada, as it
ought and promises to be in the future,
q market for the finest saddlers and
drivers.

THE FIGURE OF THE PISTOL.

H. Clay King: aged 81; height feet s1-4
inches, weight 18 pounds, blue eyes. gray
hair, fair. complexion, born In Kentucky,
IN fNbS sR 6N Ws
Such,wasthe.d description entered upon
the books Of the penitentiary, when II.
Clay King was enrolled for life among
the prisoners Of that institution. "A
figure of a pistol in India ink on right
wrist" When it was pricked in his
skin, by whom, and the circumstances
thereof no one can tell. It may be that
years ago by some dim Southern
bivouac, aftersthe toll sof a red day,
Clay King barred his arm to the India
ink artist. What should the design be?
Perhaps the artist paused, revolving
various patterns in his mind, and then
by some sort of fatal inspiration he hit
upon the figure Of a pistol. 1t was, at
any rate, wierd and uncanny choice.
Those who fancy the marvellous, may
we'll think that some impish influence
inspired that fatal and prophetic
symbol, and caused it to be placed upon
the arm that years afterward grasped
another pistol and sent Dave Poston to
his eternal rest. We are told that no
twinge of remorse has ever visited the
conscience Of H. Clay King for the kill
ing Of Poston. Never for one moment
has he admitted the least sorrow for
his deed. In his conversation, he often
glori6cs his action. But where is the
man or woman either who can penetrate
the silent chamber of H. Clay Kings
soul, and see what lies hidden and
v0iceless there? The tongue may be
brave and may tell its story Of defiance,
but what Of the conscience? The ex-
citement of, the judicial trial is now
over. The debates Of the lawyers have
ceased. The courts have made their
last rulings. The tragedy on the scat
fold has been averted. There is live
long disgrace in prison walls, but there
is rest-rest from the white phantom
Of imminent death, rest from the bitter
desire Of vengence, rest from all save
the eternal drive of conscience. Can
Clay King escape that2 II so, then he
Is differently constituted from all the
children of men. He may fight against
all regret. He may denounce the man
whom he killed. He may go his way
doggedly impenitent. But conscience
will be his executioner. On his wrist
are the blue outlines Of pistol, but
dare any one affirm that there is not
upon his brain also the figure Of a pis-
t0l, figure ever growing palmer,
burning Its way remorselessly into his
soul. Just as the drop, drop, drop, Of
the water upon mans head will drive
him to madness, so will that persistent
figure upon the brain Of King awake
his dormant remorse or destroy him.
As the dagger would not ''out" from
Macbeth's vision, 20 will the pistol
haunt Kings mental vision forever. -

Another Pleasant and Interesting Message
From Monteagle.

MONTEAGLE, aug. 10, loJz.
Dear Sentinel:-In looking over n.y.
letter as it appeared in your last issue,
I find that it is Hamlet with Hamlet
leftout," se: Monteagle with the schools
left out. There have been this season
fourteen departments, in which ire Of
fered more than fifty courses Of instruc
tion by specialists who have won dis
tinction in.various grades Of educational
work. From the lowest primary work
up to the sciences, higher:mathematics;
the languages both ancient and modern,
all have their separate departments
neither are music and art neglected, as
they both have many followers. It is
quite novel sight to see 30 many
greyhaired men and women, ESPECIALLY
women) with note book and pencil in
hand, vending their way to school. In
this age Of progress, mothers are COM
pelled to study and read tokeepabreast
Of their children. Thank God for such
places as Monteagle, where they have
such fine opportunities Of rubbing off
the dust, and bringing forth from the
store-house of memory, things which
they thought forever lost. All! busy,
tired mothers; Lay aside your needle
for little while; put fewer ruffles and
tucks in the little dresses, and give
more time to the improvement Of your
mind. Do not let your boys and girls
outgrow you. In the absence Of the
Lecturer one morning last week, to en-
tertain the audience, an old-fashioned
spelling match was gotten up, and
was chosen on one side: will not say
how long I stood up, nor how many
words spelled; suffice it to say, was
not the first one to Sit down, even If !
was not the last, and was on the win
ming side. My, what fun we had!
You know nothing so engages and
interests the feminine mind as a we'd
ding, and we are going to have one
next Thursday at High noon," at the
amphitheater, and we are all invited.
Mr. Hayes and Miss Chisholm, Of Tus-
caloosa, Ala, are to be married at that
time. You see the Little God" gets
in some of his worl:, even at Monteagle,
where everybody is supposed to be
thinking Of something higher and bet
ter (Y I think some of our friends Of
uncertain age will find trip to the
mountains necessary for their health
next summer. I think I'll try it again
myself.
We have a very pleasant family Of
about thirty in the Mississippi Home,
with six little children, who keep
everything very lively. This has been
called the paradise Of children. "
There are between three and four hun
dred here this summer. To support
the dignity Of our home, we have with
US DR.. H. F. Sproles and DR.. j. T..
Christian from jackson, Miss, both Of
whom are genial, pleasant companions.
II they were anywhere else, I would
say that they both were representative
men Of the Baptist church, but at
Monteagle.. we have no denominations.
The weather this morning is quite cool,
and u fire Is very comfortable. Az
much as love this place, and as pleas
ant q time as I have had, my heart 10
beginning to turn towards the dear
ones at home, and will be with them
some time next week..
