Correspondence from Kentucky
,'r* •; ft \-\ M —r-i ■ ; 11 * m
OwEXsrtor.o, Feb. ^5,1878.
I never knew, icy dear Courier, a
person of intelligence above brutish,
ness who did not feel pleasure in ihe
receipt of letitrs; Even if we expect in
them bad news, or if there is reason tn
dread their coming, yet it is a satisfaction
felt by every one to get letters. A man
generally likes to be seen in receipt of
an epistolary bundle when the mail is
, opened.qnd.; a iron'd blocks the post-
office entrance; and this is a sort of
side shotv of pleasure to, the circu3 di
mansions of his perusal when lie sits
down to break' the seals. But what
pleasure ranks next to the coming ot
letters? This ia‘ a conundrum, t
; which k answer: the receipt of a hom
paper. Iflefters'don’t'come, its a glo
rious dab oF'comfort oil'lsjne’s disap
pointment wounds when he can tear
open the brown wrapper and unfold a
GouniEit. With satisfaction he can
growl, ‘‘Well, dog take the letters, and
the writers, too; they can go to granny ;
I’ll take Courier in mine.” May heav
en reward the toil-weary makers of
newspapers! Though contumely an<‘
scarce honor are their lot in earth, and
small appreciation goes to them at best
if measured alongside their years of
anxiety to serve the world, yet we cai
not in fair conscience do le^s than hies
them in their work. And so to the old
and vigorous Courier come herewith
my hearty gratitude, and all the wealth
of benediction a sinner like me can
be3tow.
Owensboro, a point from which this
letter takes its south ward journey, is on
the south bank of the Ohio river, a
hundred and fifty miles below Louis
ville. It has about as many people as
Rome,-but is not a jewel smiled on by
surrounding hills, as my old Georgia
home. For beauty of location it would
compare with Rome about as a brick
yard with Myrtle Hill in spring time.
Like all Ohio river towns in this sec
tion, it is flat, with no high land near,
and the crop of mud beats all creat'on.
If the slushy deposit could be made of
instant value to Southern farmers for
cotton manure, the guano mills of Wil
mington and other points would soon
cease to grind, and the Courier’s adver
tising columns would set forth in large
type the virtues and coaxing proper
ties of Kentucky mud—but of course
it would be fixed up with fancy names,
and perhaps done in neat cne-pound
packages, with gold labels. However,
it is not all gold that glitters, nor all
mud thai looks muddy. As the land
we build on here is a sand-bar, there is
enough sand mixed with the paste to
keep it from being too sticky; so w
congratulate ourselves that it is at least
a degree above the prairie wax of the
Southwest. At every street-crossing
there are stepping stones—some made
of good granite, and some of sawed
logs set end up. These make naviga
tion possible in town during wet weath
er; while outside of town, in the coun
try—well, the Lord only knows how
the tobacco teamsters get through. Per
haps they get footholds on the wrecks
of preceding teams who have gone
hopelessly' down in the gulf of dark
brown mucilage, leaving not even the
ears of their mules to rise as warning
stakes to guide belated farmers, who
must put their trust in providence and
drive ahead.
Wo so often hear the reverent re
mark that justice rules in nature, and
that compensation is made for every
loss we sustain by natural agencies. It
that be so—and I don’t care to argue
with Professor Tice about it—why is it
that Owensboro is as dusty in dry times
as it is soaky in the period of rain ?
The weather beam is not long in rising
and descending—it flops up and down
iike the walking-beam of an ocean
steamer, and hardly gives time for com
ment on the degrees of change from
extreme to extreme. This is because
of the sand, which dries in no time;
and it is so Sne that the wind picks it
up immediately and sifts it in people’s
eyes and over their clothes. From
mud to dust is a transition with too
short an intermediate for strangers to
suit their habits and follow the vaga
ries of this climate. But, during the
winter now breaking into spring the
rule of weather has been wetness, occa
sionally aggravated by snow without
the satisfaction of sleigh rides.
I have no right to abuse this burough
altogether. It has some attractions,
perhaps, and they may break out like
a flowering small pox when t jis mis
erable winter has packed up and
moved its aggravations further north.
The town being level, there is abun
dant room for spreading, and it spreads.
The consequence of this is low houeses,
for there is no crowding to compel high
buildings, and nearly all residences are
cottages. A few business houses oi
three stories tower above their lowly
neighbors like trees in an unequal
forest, and it Ls hardly possible here to
get a view of all Kentucky from the
topofahouse. . 1/.
This is Davis3 county, one of the
richest tobacco raising sections in the
State. Immense quantities are raised,
and it relates to other crops as cottoD
does in Georgia, or corn in the North
west. Every day farm wagons may be
seen driven through _the streets loaded
with the juicy weed beaped up above
wagon-box, and protected from the
dampness by a quilt laid over it. Thus
it is sold to the toffacce HtmT.-T
then it proceeds to the stemmeriis. Of
these,latter Owensboro has now nine;
teen, including one for the grangers.

the form of igw.-.that he#raa in thp<-

the sentence. Judge Whitaker answer
ed thjtciho. abcosed had had.a fair trial
before an impartial jury, and that the

A suspense ^appeal was granted, re
turnable on Wednesday. A motion to
transfer the case of Wells, Kenner and
Cass.tnave to th'eTFnited' States -Court
was filed, and will i»- heartL on JVed

IVashisgtos, Febr 23?—There is nr
foundation l'or .any- semi-official state
ment as to the views of the Adminis
tration upon the sentence-: of Gen. An
derson. Kb' official ^EffepStohes have
reached the Government on that rjtnat-
ter. Thus far the Cabinet.bfficafsi end
other supporters of the Administration
are averse to making any at itenWnts of
their sentiments on the subject, but it is
evident that there is a strong feylfog oil
the part of the Aflministratiulvmat the
prosecution should now ceasef. jit is
intimated hv prominent parties here
that unless Anderson is pardoned the
uroceedings will ultimately,-reaoh-r the
United States Supreme Court. 1 High
lettal circles, ou side the Administra
tion find no machinery in-Cammon
law, or the statutory or the code Ntpo-
leon that can intervene. The members
of the Returning Board, they say, must
rely on the mercy of the people of Lou
isiana and the clemency of Governor
Micholls.
A Snow Storm in August.
What a i 'hi! tan savant Predicts on Cer
tain Dates the PresMit Year.
Panama, Feb. 13. —A Chilian paper
says: “We have had the pleasuretof
r-ceiving a visit from Dr. Full), who
intends leaving for the North by to
day’s (December 12) steamer. After
taying some time in Captapo he will
go to Peru, and thence to the United
States. Dr. Falb predicts that great
atmospheric disturbances may be ex
pected on the following dates the pres
ent ypar: From the 15th t<> the 17th of
February, lGth and 18th of March, 26ih
and 2sth of August, ard 24th and 26th
of September, or p ssih’v two days pre
vious to the foregoing. This prophecy
does not apply exclusively to Chili,
but to tho whole globe, though, the na
ture of the disturbances will necessari
ly differ according to local conditions;
’hus while tempssts, heavy rains, snow
storms, with thunder and lightning,
will occur in some places, earthquakes
may be expected in others. Even
where local peculiarities may so affect
the weather that no notable influence
may be observed, the brtkence of the.
disturbance may be clearly distinguish
ed in the atmosphere by clouds driving
in opposite directions, €*c;; -Iujthe
mountains of Europe and the Uuit-d
States, the Doctor confidently predicts
that the first snow will fall between the
2(1.h and 2Sth of August.”
As the foregoing predictions apply
especially to the United Slates, it will
be worth while for our “cousins” to
make a note of them; so that by the
time Dr. Falb reaches these latitudes
they will have some idea of the' value
to be placed on his skill as a weather
prophet, and may receive him aecurd-
i ugly.
There’s no telling what would become
of the memoies of our grandfathers if it
were not for the Southern people. Up
in the Nortn every body seems too busy
to think about our ancestors who set
'he republic whirling “down the ring
ing grooves of change.” and it is com
lua to be a tna'ter of serious speculation
as to the probability of the next gen
eration of down-Eastern children s be-
ingible to tell you off-hand whether
Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Jefferson
cut < ( own the cherry tree. But there is
an altogether different state of affairs
in Dixieland. Depend upon itthe tra
ditions of the nation will never go
begging reverence and regard as long as
as there is a palmetto in .South
Carolina or a Mount Vernon in Virginia.
This is shown by the remarkable obser
vance of Washington’s natal day trough-
out the South and particularly in the
two States just mentioned. The great
event was in Charleston. For the first
time in fifteen years the militia of
S'-uth Carolina was permitted to assem
ble, and lull advantage was taken of
opportunity to rejoice over the era of
prosperity that dawns upon the State.
General W. H. F. Lee, General Bradley
T Johnson, and a number of other very
distinguished Virginia gentlemen, were
made the especial guests of South Caro
lina, and the day was must splendidly
celebrated with festal observance, pa-
eeant and parade. What happier spec
tacle could be witnessed than Virginia
and South Carolina thus congratula't
each other on “the good times
comes again?”' All on Washington’s
birthday, too!—Courier Journal.
