Death, of an old Citizen.
It is with regret that we announce that John
Ray, Esq., an old an esteemed citizen of our
town, died at his home in this city on Tuesday
morning last. He was in the 74th year of his
age. He was buried on Wednesday afternoon,
and his remains were followed to the grave by
a large concourse of citizens and friends.

Struck by Lightning.—During
Saturday night a tree near the
Church, two in the yard of Dr. A. B. Calhoun,
and one near the residence of Henry Addy (col
ored) and the house of E. Douglass, Esq., were
struck by lightning. Mr. D. made a very nar
row escape. He was lying on a matrass near a
chimney, and thinking his position an exposed
one, arose and started into another room to lie
upon a feather-bed. As he entered the parti
tion door, the lightning struck his chimney,
shattered his mantle-piece and knocked him to
the floor. He immediately recovered his feet,
but the shock was so terrible that he took a
position in the rain, where he remained for an
hour or more, seeking relief from the confusion
of the shock. Had he remained in his original
position there cannot be a doubt as to the cer
tainty of his death, for the bolt passed in less
than two feet of the pillow on which his head
had been lying. We rejoice, however, in com
mon with his many friends, at his escape from
a death so sudden aud horrible, and alike do
we wish him a long life in which to bless his
family and country.

It is worthy of remark that if the States
whose inhabitants were recently in rebel
lion were legally and constitutionally or
ganized and restored to their rights prior
to the 4th of March, 1867, as I am satis
fied they were, the only legitimate authori- I one man and began
ty under which the election for President terrific hurrahs,
and Vice-President can be held therein
must be derived from the governments in
stituted before that period.
It c'early follows that all the State gov
ernments organizjd in those States under
acts o»f Congress for that purpose and un
der military control, are illegitimate and
ol no validity whatever, and in that view
the votes cast in those States for Presi
dent and Vice President, in pursuance of |
acts passed sinee the 4th of March, 1867,
and in obedience to the so-called recon
struction acts of Congress, cannot be le
gally received and counted, while the on
ly votes in the States that can be legal
ly cast and counted will be those cast in
pursuance of the laws in force in these
several States prior to the legislation by
Congress upon the subject of reconstruc
tion.
The President proceeds to argue that
while the people of the Southern States
were not in rebellion, people of the North
ern States were in rebellion, and that the
reasons for exclusion apply equally to
New York as Virginia. The message
concludes: If Congress were to piovide
by law that the votes of none of the States
should be received and counted if cast
for a candidate who differed in political
sentiment with a majority of the two
Houses, such legislation would at once be
condemned by the country as an uncon
stitutional and revolutionary usurpation
of power. It would, however, be exceed
ingly difficult to find in tbe Constitution
any more authority for the passage of tho
joint resolution under consideration, than
for an enactment looking directly to the
rejection of all votes not in accordance
with the political preferences of a majori
ty of Congress. No power exists iu the
Constitution authorizing the joint resolu
tion or the supposed law, the only dif
ference being that one would be more
palpably unconstitutional and revolution
ary than the other ; both would develop
the radical error that Congress has the
power to prescribe terms and conditions
to the right to the people of the States to
east their votes for President and Vice
President.

The former letters o r Mr. Scales gave
a brief history of the huge snake. The
serpent has been seen several times, for
the past twenty-flve years, in the neigh
borhood of Triune Tennessee. During
the war and since its close it was not seen
until a few weeks since, when it was dis
covered by two men who followed it to
its hole, at the mouth of which a box fif
ty feet long with a trap-door was placed
and baited. The snake was caught in
the box aud escaped. The following let
ter gives the concluding history :
Triune, July 14, 1868.
To the Editor of the Banner :
My letters to you on the subject of the
“big snake,” seem to have excited more
attention than I dreamed of, and I am
sorry I wrote at all, especially as so many
express doubts as to the correctness of my
statement. Eveu you, yourself, seem to
think I am only trying the gullibility of
the public. I would not now come to you
again, even with a sworn statement, did I
not have proof that will convince the most
skeptical, all burlesques and sensation
telegrams to the contrary notwithstand
ing. “Truth is stranger than fiction,”
and if a man only believes what he sees,
how little of history would be recorded.
But I am even able to offer to a doubt
ing public that proof, namely : the mon
ster hiruself in propria jtersonst, for we
have him, the very snake that has created
such an uproar. However, I will proceed
with my narrative, and give you a plain,
unvarnished statement of facts :
I wrote you on the 8th instant that the
serpent had broken the box and deared
for the woods. This created a great deal
of consternation in the community, and
when
The last provision ex-
the neighbors got together and devised
some means to put an end to him. On a
close examination of the box it was dis
j covered that they had put a defective
! plank in it, being windshaken from one
{end to the other, and thus, when the cap
: tive began to surge, he soon started this
J plank, and was then able to break out.—

so far as he was concerned he was per
fectly willing for it to be written on this
bill that these arms were intended for
protection of the loyal men at the polls.
A motion made to adjourn on tri-
day, drew from Hendricks the remark
that the President would properly avail
position. We suppose he is placed there
now without his consent or concurrence.
Seymour is not a politician—be is a
big road. They now found a couple of
strong horses gentle enough, and they
with these determined to carry him to
No ensville, it being the nearest point on
the pike. Hearing of these circum
stances, I, in company with Mr. Ben
Johnson, of this place, started for the
scene of action. When near Mr. Bit-
tock’s we met with E-quire Greene, going
to the same point. We had not gone far
before we hove in sight, and here we met
with a very serious accident, for no soon
er had our horses caught sight of the
huge body of the serpent than thiy be
gan to plnnge at such a rate as to throw
all three ol us, Mr. Johnson and myself
sustaining no injury, but Esquire Greene
received a severe dislocation of the ankle,
that will probably lame hiui for life.
However, we soon reached Nolensville,
and the question arose : What will we do
with it ? We were anxious to take it to
Nashville just as it lay, but the carcass
would, we knew, become very offensive
from the great heat of the weather. So
at last it was agreed to skin hiui, and af
ter stuffing anu drying take him down to
the city for inspection. I took a good
survey of hiui and found his length not
so great as we hau imagined, for he was
just twenty nine feet eight inches from
tip to tip. His greatest circumference
was thiity and a half inches, and he was
just seventeen inches around the neck, or
rather just behind the head. About ten
feet of his tail had a spinous ridge like
that of an alligator. His head was the
most formidable part about him, and was
truly terrible to behold, even when dead.
It was fully twenty inches across, and was
armed with Mie most formidable set of
sharp small teeth, with four huge tusks.
It had a hole in it just under the right
eye, from the uiinie ball, and a dent in
his neck from the glancing ball of Mr.
Irvine. Although he seemed at a short
distance to be of a uniform color, on close
inspection I discovered he was spotted
like a rattle snake, iu diamond spots, and
his belly was of a bright bluish black
color.
We cut him across the middle and
skinned him both ways, thus preserving
the head whole. It was then well salted
and limed, and the ends were well sewed
together, and then by inserting Mr. Simp
son’s bellows, we inflated the monster to
its full size.
Wc will let it dry in this fix and then
stuff it with saw dust. And now comes
the best of all.
There are so many shares in it that its
captors have agreed to make a present of
it to Andrew Johnson. This determina
tion was arrived at in the lace of a very
liberal offer sent for it by Messrs Wall &
Handy, of Franklin. Now, in order to
pay expenses there, as soon as it is in
traveling condition, it will be exhibited
in all the large cities between here and
Washington,commencing in Nashville the
first of next week.

The Ratification Meeting in Nashville, Tenn ,
is said to have exceeded anything ever befoie
seen in the Southern country. The old cam
paigner, Gov. Neil S. Brown, who was one of
the speakers, said:
“ I have been in many public gatherings in
my life, but I never saw any such outpouring
as I have witnessed here on this occasion.”
Within the forty-eight hours ending Sun ley
afternoon there were ten cases of sun-stroke in
Buffalo, seven of which proved fatal. The
heat yesterday was intense.

READ WIIAT THE PRESS SAYS.
Among the vast improvements of the present
times the change in remedies is not the least ime
portant. Formerly ridienlous and often injurious
] inixtiin s were administered upon the recommen
dation of one ]K-r»on to another, or from on-
family to another, as being “good” for such and
such a complaint, while they were, in fact, use
less or worse. Now, Prof. Kayton supplies the
public with the most effectual remedies that ed
ucated skill can devise or art can produce, with
explicit directions for their use ineachand every
ease. In place of tho seuselees potions our
grandmothers gave, we have the cunning inven
tions of men learned iu the art of cure,adapted to
onr necessities, at a m>rainal price. Trot. Kay-
Tost's remedies consist of

blood—Quitman Banner.
These remedies are innocent, and no person
need be alarmed at taking them; yet they are
powerful, and will remove the diseases enumer
