A CAMPAIGN OF sLANG-WHANG.

Il OAMfAlGN OF SLANG-WHANG.
The general tone Of the Republican
press i'm this state indicates thaC our
next political battles viii be fought in
campaign of slaug-whang. The Re
publicans are fairly confident Of Win
ming. still they are not so almighty sure
about it, Whenever the Republicans
believe their chances 10 be a little bet
ter than even. the most Of the Repub-
lican press becomes insolent and much
of it insulting. There are honorable
exceptions; we regret that they ere 50
few. But il is characteristic of per-
sons who believe themselves 70 be OF
Gods anOinted. " to be Over0eariDg and
rude i'm the hour of victory. In the
hour of defeat they submit as a devOtee
submits TO an act Of penance, in the
deepest humiliation. Hence the some
what naughty bearing Of much of the
Over-confdent Republican press. 1t is
the strut and swell of the turkey cock;
&c annOys everybody but It scares no
body.
We desire to remind these gentlemen
that the Democratic press proposes to
put mp TO them the warmest fight they
ever got into. We propose that it shall
be- fair and square and decent as poll,
teal fights can be made, unles they will
not have it so. If they do not want it
that way we have cur Cetapults and
mud-slingers all ready and creased, and
the sky shall be dark with mud and
cats. and the atmosphere shall be foul
and rank with the doors of dilapidated
and decaying reputations.-WetZel

HELD TO BAIL.
Officer Byars for the Killing of Lizzie Durr
 Put Under $1OOO Bond.

Justice Benners yesterday held Officer J. N. Byars to bail in the sum of S100O The bond was made immediately and subscribed to by T. c. Mcdonald, G. A. Rogers and Gus Ellard. Officer Byars. 1t is said, holds more than that amount of property himself Some question has arisen as to whether or not an officer can offer himself as bail, but the opin- ion among the lawyers seems to be that the restriction applies only to state and county officers and not to officers of the city.
 Officer Byars, it will be remembered shot and killed Lizzie Durr. a negro girl. early on the morning of the 18th in- stant. The defense claimed that the shooting was accidental. but the prose- cution insisted that the accident involved criminal negligence. The whole matter will be reviewed before the next grand jury, who will either find true bill against Officer Byars or ignore the charges against him. In the meantime Officer Byars will resume his place on the police force. though 1t Is not proba- blc that he will be assigned to the ter ritory in the vicinity of the shooting, on Thirteenth street.
 A large number of negroes were pres ent. but they offered no violence and in dulged in very little comment. In fact they were satisfied, 1t seemed with the ruling of the court

FAMOUS TO COME SOUTH.
Mails Full of Inquiries by Prospective Northern
 Immigrants.

ihiHliS, oNAo'
 There never was a more suspicious time for the inducement of desira ble immigration for Alabama. The State Herald's mail from persons in the north and northwest asking for sample copies of the paper, with a view to becoming posted on this part of the country, is steadily increasing. The inquiries cover states from the lakes clear across the Rocky mountains to the Pacific coast, and indicate keen interest and an earn- est desire for information.
 correspondent al Battle Creek, Mich. who incloses subscription and asks for descriptive pamphlets. says:
 You would be astoniShed to hear how many people are talking of coming south. If there was some way that it could be put before the northern people there would be the largest immigration to the south ever known"
 The northerners are not only writing but some are packing up and coming south Not a few farmers have come overland, bringing their own teams and implements. Up in Madison county scores of families have settled within the last twelve months, and throughout north Alabama have come sturdy men and women and their little ones to cast their lots in this lovely sunland, and the best of it all is that they soon form the happiest element of the population If they pass a year and see all the seasons come and go without extreme of any sort and note how generous and versa tile the soil is in response to industry, the contrast is so great and the advant- ages of their new home in this land of perennial blossom over their old north ern frost chilled habitation that they are delighted and seem to take new lease on life.
 The State Herald has responded with care and painstakings to many of these requests for information and will con tinue to devote time and space to lending intelligent and reliable advice to pros- tInr1, inn icrta nt
