MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 10.-About 8
o'clock this morning scventy-fve men,
all wearing black masks, appeared
suddenly on Front street near the jail

this morning hazard even guess. No
one knew them to assemble, no officer
of the law noticed their passage through
any street, nor did any person intercept
them in their quick and quiet march to
Shelby county Jail.
The waichman Mt the Jail office was
having n chat with u prisoner, when
ring was heard at the outer gate and
Wa.chman O'Donnell walked to the

this mean?" queried the Waterman, rs

There was hurried consultation
among the mob, wait OF few min

which the watchman's hands were
tied
The keys were found in the Jail of

Jail and in a minute were in the cell
room of the negro department
Now began q search. There were
twenty-seven negroes there, all under
arrest for completely in Saturday
nights affair and it was no easy task
for the men to distinguish the wanted
negroes from the other blacks in the
dark of the night. On they went from
cell to cell, the thoroughly alarmed in
mates coming to the cell doors and I'M
Willingly aiding them in the search.
Finally the men wanted were found.
They were Calvin Mcdonald, William
Stuart and Theodore Moss. The mob
took them to the outskirts of the city

then dispersed.

The are 235 Democrats in the national
House of Representatives. OF these nine
tepths do not believe that Mr.. CLEVELAND
could ,be elected President it he were
nominated for that Office. This is Mr.
BARBoUR's deliberate judgment" That
is to say, there are 2l0 Democratic members
of the House of Representative who be-
lieye that Mr.. CLEVELAND would he nomi-
mated. if at all, only TO be defeated, and
only twenty-five Democratic members of
that body who believe that he could be
elected even if nominated. THE general
impression of senators representing Demo-
cratic States likely TO cast their electoral
votes for a Democrat IN presidential
election" and of whom Mr.. BARBOUR can
speak from better knowledge and daily
association, is with very few exceptions to
the same effect. Ten to one. Ten repre-
sentative Democrats believe that Mr..
CLEVELAND Is not an available man for
every representative Democrat who be-
lieves that he is Oh available man. Mr..
BARBOUR, it will be seen. guards his Ian
guage.
These representative Democrats in the
two house of the Congress of the United
States are qualified better than the same
mum Der OF men elsewhere to form cor
rect opinion and come to Just decision
on the question of the availability of the
various aspirants to the Office of President.
What say the people of Virginia. shall
we nominate man to be defeated or one
| to be elected?

Words of Wisdom.

Tho success of the Democratic party
at the ensuing election Il far more impor-
tant to the country. and particularly to the
southern States, than the personal fortunes
of any individual" Thus speaks Mr..
BARBOUR in his letter refuting Dir. VIII
LIAMs's charge against him. Thus ought
to speak all true Democrats. The kepub-
licans will make desperate effort to carry
the next House Of Representatives. They
will enter the presidential race with good
prospects of success should the Democrats
commit one OF those blunders which. 50
General GRANT once said. they always
commit in time 10 secure to the Republi-
cans another lease of power. The Repub-
licans already have the Supreme Court OF
the United States. With the Legislative,
Executive, and judicial departments of
the government all in their possession,
they will pass the force bill. and thus tic
the South forever to the wheels of the
chariots Of their conquerors. and make the
South more Of satrapy than 1t ever was
in reconstruction days. The man who
sees these dangers and fails TO warn the
people OF them is an unfaithful servant.

yirsi,ta,s Senators Insulted.

fredericksburg Free Lance, independently
1.-The greatest living Democrat may
never have been guilty of dong very H.
discreet thing IN politics, but II he u In
any way responsible for sending Mr.. VII
liams, of Massachusetts,, 10 Virginia u
make a speech in his favor. he has broken
the record and at the same time has done
himself incalculable injury with all VIZ,
einians who are proud of their two United
States senators.
In his speech at Richmond last week
fayor:ng Cleveland's nomination Mr.. WI
liams INDUCED in some useless, unjust,
and baseless filings at Senators Barbour
and Daniel which in most any other Var
plnla audience than q Cleveland club
would have been met with such scorn and
derision as they deserve.
IL seems strange indeed that congrega-
ton of Virginia Democrats would applaud
an allusion TO their States hOnored sena-
tors that was not creditable to them. If
true, by a northern man, the representa-
tive OF another whose record on the color
question is not as white as the driven
snow
What two Virginians have rendered such
valuable distinguished party service as
Senators Barbour and Daniel? Can they
be found!
Mr. Barbour's service to his party and
State have made him the most conspicu-
Gus figure IN Virginia politics, and We
never expected 10 see the day when the
Virginia friends of any man, however dis
tingulshed, would cheer unjust and I'M
founded filings at John 5. Barbour.

own way and at q time to be agreed upon
byitsclf-then. the Virginia delegates t.
Chicago might be left free to vote in the
Chicago convention for the admission OF
the delegates Of tina Regulars or the dele
gates of the Boilers. But there IS no room
for any two opinions on that point. The
~ delegates appointed by the Albany Con-
vention Of Regulars represent all the Demo.
Gratis entitled to be heard IN the national
convention. The delegates to be appoint
ed at Syracuse on the Sist instant VIII be
nothing in the world but Bolters-sore-
heads. Adullamites, cranks, and what not.
The very fact that man cannot perceive
the difference between Better and Regu-
lar Democrat Is proof positive that there
ia no place for him ina Democratic national
convention.

The Primary To-Day.

The Democratic citizens of Richmond
will to-day have an opportunity TO present
themselves at their usual places of voting
aud express their wishes as to who shall
represent them in the State convention OF
the party TO be held here on May 18th.
For this occasion the secret ballot is re-
iected and the piud-uoce mode OF voting Is
adopted. The names of all candidates VIII
be printed in alphabetical order on each
precinct ticket. and the voter Will strike
of the names Of those persons for whom
he does not wish 20 vote. Each precinct is
entitled to elect a given number OF dele
gates. and the election will be by precincts
and not by wards.
The contest is between those who think
that Mr.. CLEVELAND is the most available
indeed. the only svailuble-candidate anu
those who insist that perhaps somewhere
within the broad limits Of these United
States there may perchance DO founo some
other person who will be more available
man. If the former faction wins the VIC
tory. when the delegation from this con-
cresslonal district meets 10 choose Two
delegates to Chicago CHARLES V. MERE
pIrH. ESQ, will be their choice as the city
delegate There is no sort of doubt about
this. If the other faction WINS. its dele
Gates. with their associates from the
counties, will have to settle 1t amongst
themselves who shall represent the city
az Chicago. These delegates are alto
ccther and truly unpledged. They can
vote Tor Alderman W. S. GUM, Colonel
JoHy B. PURCELL, Captain JOHN A. CUR
TIs. II. X. POLLARD. Colonel A. ). BU-
FORD. Colonel w. II. PALMER, HENRY q.
Cannon, Esq, JAMES ALFRED JONES, Esq,
or any one Of a score of equally able and
worthy gentlemen who are III accord with
the view that it would be the height of
folly for the State convention to commit
itself to the fortunes of any man.
These are the issues as we see them. We
confidently commit the subject to the
people of Richmond and ask that it shall
be acted upon in brotherly spirit and by
full vote.
The CIKvEIAND men have elected fewer
delegates in the counties Of this congress
sional district than their opponents have
and consequently it is important for them
to secure many more city delegates than
their opponents.
The returns from the counties that have
thus far elected delegates to the State con-
vention indicate that decided majority Of
memSers-elect are antl-CLEyELAND men,
and there seems to be no doubt that by
their superior numbers they will organize
and control the body.
Some of the largest anti-CLEvELAND coun-
ties-counties where the voters are well
known to be firm in the belief that the ex-
President is not the most available man
are vet To elect.

a bill "for the free and unlimited coinage

that rate.
