J. Herndon, now in the Chatham jail, under a sentence of life imprisonment. Herndon was charged in the Appling Su jierior Court two years ago with the mur der of Henry Thomas, a uegro, and sen tenced to imprisonment for'life. The case went to the Supreme court on a motion for anew trial, which was denied. It now comes to tho Governor on a petition for ex ecutive clemency. The grounds upon which the petition is based, are that Herndon is a confirmed invalid imliecile and has been sufficiently punished. All assignment was made to-day by H. M. Bosworth & Cos., wholesale dealers in cof fees, teas and spices, 27 Broad street, to Henry Lewis, assignee. The liabilities are $19,093 and the assets $12,000. The Governor leaves to-morrow morning on the East Tennessee railroad for Monti cello, on a special invitation to attend the grand railroad celebration and barbecue.

Her Maecotte Again Brings Her in a Victor—English Yachtsmen Pleaeod. London, June 2.—The race under the auspices of the New Thames Yacht Club took place to-dny. The course was the same as yesterday—from tho l/ower Hope to the Mouse light ship and return, a distance of fifty miles. The start was made at 11:57:30 a. m. iu the following order: Gencsta, Svbil, Sleuth Hound. Wendur, Thistle, Neptune, Irex and Fox Hound. The Ge nesta and Sybil were called luck for going over the line liefore the gun was fired. At the Thames head the Thistle was well away, followed by the Wendur, lrex, Neptune and Foxhound. AH carried their jib, foresail, mainsail and square headed topsails, with the exception of the Thistle, which had a jib headed topsail. The lrex on passing the Wendur tbok down her topsails, and after getting around tho light ship, the spinnakers also; bigger top sails and jib to|>sails were then set and till came along home at a tremendous pace, finishing in the following order: The Thistle 4:43. tne Irex 4:52, the Wendur 4:69. the Neptune 5:23, and the Fox Hound 5:44. The Thistle rounded tho Mouse light at 2:18, plowing through a henvv sen with the greatest of ease, and simply flying along close hauled. To-day’s performance con firms the universal opinion of the Thistle’s splendid capacity. Some experienced Kng lsh yachtsmen say she is the finest racing yacht afloat. The Wendur takes first prize. The Thistle, although first in, takes the third place under the time allowance. A Prominent Carolina Editor Dead. Raleigh, N. C., June 2.—P. M. Hnle, lone a leading editor in this city, and for awhile a resident of New York’ city, as a member of the firm of E. J. Hale &. Sons, publishers, died in Fuvetteville this after noon, after a long illness, of cancer of the tongue. He was 59 years of nge. Hanlan Eager for Revenge. Chicago, June 2.—The meeting between Edward Hanlan and J. A. Bt. John was held thia evening and another race ar • ranged between Hanlan and Ofttiduur over the Pullman course, to take place July 26. MEXICANS UNEASY. A Sensational Don Carlos Story Set ting Them Wild. City ok Mexico, June 2.—Despite the fact that even the organs of tlio Clerical party ridicule the reported plot to incite a revolution and place Don Carlos on the throne, and that tho leading politicians of the Liberal party assert that there is not a shadow of foundation for the report, the RepuMicano, a very influential Liberal journal contains to-day a significant loading article which claims to have special information for its basis. The tone is intensely hostile to the Clerical party. The writer begins by saying that he would have regarded the report as mere offspring of that love of sensation which is so strong a feature of the American journalism, had it not been for certain confirmatory intelli gence received from an independent source. This private intelligence hints dimly at the vast organizations within the Clerical party for the overthrow of the republic and set ting up of the throne in its stead. A number of wealthy Spaniards, resi dent here, who are infatuated with wild hojies of "restoring the days of old Spanish ascendancy, arc said by the writer to be implicated, but, he adds, the prime movers are priests—those worthy successors to Requemada and his compeers—the same who in 1863 betrayed their country to the French, and who would not hesitate to do the same to-day if in that way they could attain their selfish ends. THE CLERICAL PARTY DENOUNCED. The writer then launches into a violent denunciation of the Clerical party. He notes, the increasing boldness in the church party press. “Seldom,” he says, “do we pick up one of those sheets but w e find it filled with shameless panegyrics of des potism nnd bitter invectives against those who refuse to how their necks to the yoke of the superstition. Go and hear our preachers. Instead of inculcat ing meekness nnd charity as the founder of our religion, they inveigh against our constitution and hold its authors up to the execration of their hearers. The church, whenever it has been armed with power, lias used it cruelly. Without going back to the massacre of St. Bartholomew and Dragonnades, what occurred in this country twenty years ago, is sufficient proof thereof. Their fanaticism is essentially intollerant. It is a stranger to every sentiment of hu manity and sweeps every obstacle out of its i>ath, burning, shooting and hanging as it goes along, and all for the glory of God.” The writer calls on the government to lay aside its temporizing policy and keep a stern ivutch on the movements of those men who are already so deeply stained with the blood of their fellow tnen. He concluded by warning Don Carlos against evil advisers, nnd bids him remem ber “El Cerra de las Companas,” the spot where Maxmillian, Miramon and Mecia w ere shot. This vigorous and severely de nunciatory article excites much comment, and a reply from the clerical press is looked for with great interest, THE KEELING WIDE-SPREAD. The Monitor Republieano also has ad vices from the State of Oaxaca, intimating that the local members of the Church party are conspiring against the government, nnd the Ferro Carrutvx, a newspaper published at Oaxaca, referring to the same subject, urgos the government to take stern repressive measures at once. • A FIFTH SUNDAY MEETING. The Alachua Baptist Association of Florida Hold One. Brooksville, Fla., May 31.—A fifth Sunday meeting took place in the Baptist houseof worshipat Brooksville, commencing on Friday before the fifth Sunday of May. The ladies of the church and congregation had beautifully decorated the platform in the rear of the pulpit, by placing thereupon flower pots, exhibiting a floral view for variety and beauty seldom surpassed. The committee on entertainment, had pro vided pleasant homes for all attending mes sengers, and had wagons in waiting for them at the depot to convey them to their stopping places. Twenty-seven messengers from seven churches and four distinguished visitors were present. The distinguished visitors were Rev. N. A. Bailey, pastor of the First Baptist church of Orlando and one of the editors of the Florida Baptist Witness; Rev. W. N. Chaudoin, Corresponding Secre tary and Treasurer of the Baptist Conven tion of Florida and one of the editors of the Florida Baptist Witness; Rev. U. W. Hull, Sunday school and children’s missionary of the Baptist Convention of Florida, and Sirs. L. B. Telford, Corresponding Secretary of woman’s mission work of the Baptist Con vention of Florida, who was once a missionary to China. Mrs. Telford held n special meeting for ladies and children, in which she addressed them, relating incidents connected with her missionary life and exhibiting some idols worshipped by the Chinese women. The children’s missionary held a meeting, and talked and sang for ihe little ones on Sun day afternoon. Rev. W. W. Chaudoin preached a grand missionary sermon on Sunday morning to a large and attentive congregation, taking uj> a collection nt close for missions, amounting to $27 (45. ltev. N. A. Bailey preached several eloquent sermons to large congregations during the meeting, and nis sermon on Sunday night on the “World’s Prayer “ Meeting” was especially impressive and eloquent. Several important queries were di-russed during the meeting, one of which relate! to tenqiernnee, nr rather the evils of intemper ance and how to correct thorn. This qure tion was considered in a mass meeting on Saturday night. Tho other queries bore upon missions, Sunday schools, etc., and elicited the interest and attention due such important subjects. On Monday afternoon, May 30. Mrs. Tel ford met with the Ladies’ Mission Society, of the Baptist church at, Brooksville, arid aid<*l them in organizing an associntional union of the Women's Societies within the bounds of the Alachua Association, of which Mrs. Paul Willis was chosen Presi dent., Mrs. W. B. Hare Secretary and Mrs. W. Y. Trammel Treasurer. A Fatal Arkansas Affray. Little Hock, Ark. .June 2. A Conway (Ark.) s)ieciai says: Information was re ceived here to-day of a terrible affray be tween three young farmers during a spelling liee nt a church in Harvey township, fifteen miles from Conway. The men were Dan and Altiert Mabry and Tom Mqldleton. The latter and Dan Mabry were rivals for the hand of a neighboring belle. Saturday night they called Middle ton out of the church nnd accused him of lying, seized him, and began stabbing him with a knife during the affray, which emptied the church. Several shots were fired, one of which struck Middleton and another mortally wounded Dan Mabry. Albert Mabry was also seriously shot. Dan died on Monday. AlbeA has’ disappeared and Middleton ir reported dying this morn ing- Capt. Williams’ Infernal Present. New \ork, June 2.—The well-known Police (’apt, Williams, of the Nineteenth precinct, to-day received a small package by express, lie opened it carefully aud heard a hissing sound. He quickly dropped it into a pail of water, which nt oiiee began to lioil up. After a time the box was taken out and was found to be an infernal ma chine. containing nltro-cotton.

If They Want Certain Prosperity Let Them Come South. The following is the speech of Gov. Gor don delivered at Nashville last week, the oc casion being the laying of the corner stone of the National Exposition of American In dustries: Mr. President and my Countrymen: This is a great day for Tennessee, the South and the whole country. Philanthropy, pa triotism ami private interests are all here to unite in these imposing ceremonies. They are here to countenance and consecrate the laying of the corner stone of your temple, dedicated to industrial progress. Philan thropy is here; because the greatest philan thropists are the men who relieve want by providing employment—enabling the desti tute to conquer want by their own exertions. Patriotism is here; because the greatest patriots are the men who not only guard every political right, and every essential principle of government which protects the liberty of the citizen, but who, at the same time, secure for their country, by every legitimate means, all the material advantages which it* natural re sources can command. Private interest is here; Us at use the greatest promoters of these interests are those who set on foot great industrial movements, placing the means of subsistence w ithin the reach of all, or of the greatest possible number. By the promise, therefore, of increased individual and general prosperity, and in the name of philanthropy and patriotism, I bid you a most cordial God-speed in your great'undertaking.l Nashville’s movement is both timely and essential. The South has but one alterna tive; she must either be the mere tributary, the commercial vassal of other sections, or she must call into vigorous play every sin p ing energy, and gird her loins u t4li all her inherent power, for the contest is before her in the great race for manufacturing devel opment, For the pleasures and profits of agricultural life the Southern States of America ore, perhaps, the most favored re gion of this continent, if not of the world. Blit so long as we confine our energies solely or mainly to agriculture alone, so long will the mournful and almost tragic commercial liistory of the past quarter of a century continue to repeat itself. With a soil teeming with riches, with hills and mountains filled with untold treasures, we have permitted ourselves to he borne along l>y a current which carried the reward of our labor largely to other doors and other coffers. With skies most benignant, with climate most balmy, we have permitted others to gather the harvests which nature intended for us. With offr very clouds sun lit and literally saturated with wealth we have seen them form and float away to pour their golden showers upon the fields arid homesteads and cities of other sections. This has been our past experience. What shall be our future? Shall we be vassal or shall we lie sovereign in the gigantic grow th of the future. We may—we can be either. If vassal, it will be because we fail to grasp nnd control the mighty forces to utilize the vast advantages w ith which nature has so richly endowed this favored section. If sovereign, it will be because we have simply laid our hand in nature’s hand and followed where she leads. If sovereign, it will be because we have simply moved along the path and up to the plane, to which both heaven and earth are ever inviting us. My Southern countrymen, are these idle words or are they sober, momentous truths? Has nature, or has she not, given to this section patent and potent advantages for manufacturing industry as well as for agri culture? UndoubteiUy she has accorded ad vantages so marked and so numerous as to amount almost to prodigality. Undoubtedly she ha* decreed the South’s ult imate triumph in manufactures as well as in agriculture; and she has written her decree on all things around, above and beneath us aud in characters so legible and Gild that he who looks must learn and lie convinced. It would require a volume to fully de scribe all the particulars in which the South's natural superiority as a manufac turing section consists. It will require but n few words to show that these advantages really exist. Take the matter of climate. It is scarcely possible to overestimate its value. It costs less expensive houses, less clothing, less fuel to give warmth and oom fort to the lalorer and he can therefore live cheaper and work for less wages, or else accumulate more on the same wages. With an equal amount of care he will have more health, less of trying diseases or of doctors’ bills. But besides all this' the day is not far distant when the attractions of our climate will allure to this section the industrious populations of the frozen re gions of the North and the great North west. Climate w ill thus become an inci dental factor in producing additional con ditions favorable to manufacturing devel opment. With a climate, in which out-door labor may be performed in comfort, dur ing every month of the year and with such returns from the soil, nothing can prevent this section from becom ing a densely populated region. Tho truth is, there are so few days, at any sea son of the year, when labor in the open air is either disagreeable or unhealthful that one is tempted to sympathize with the old plantation negro, who, w hen asked how much of the year he could work outdoors, replied. “Well, boss, as near as I can calcu late, about thirteen mouths in enoh year.” Now if you will add to these climatic ad vantages the savings in freights, in insur ance, in commissions, in storage, etc., you will find in the matter of cotton spinning, for instance, that there is a margin of fully 10 jkm* cent, in favor of locating t he factories in the South and near the cotton fields. The advantages of ourclimate nre equally potential In the manufacture of iron anil other commodities, to which, in each class of products, additional and special advan tages might lie enumerated. In this connection, if time and the occa sion permitted, I might discuss with possi ble profit questions of tariff and taxation. But I have neither the time nor the physical strength for such discussion. Nor is the oc casion opportune; but I mny say enough upon the subject to answer ray imrpose without either exhausting my strength or doing violence to the courtesies aud proprie ties of this hour. !%me of us are wise enough to predict with certainty the future policy of the general government in reference to the tariff; but nil of us nre wise enough to know that of all sections of this Union the Southern States are the most independent of these government policies. If protection to home industries is to he the doctrine to guide us hi tho future, nnd if this protective tariff shall enable the cotton spinner of the East and t he, iron-maker of t he North to realize profit, the advantages which nature has lx ■stowed upon this section will give tons still broader margin amj a still greater profit than can po sildy be realize! by other section*. It tariff for revenue only, or if free trade even, should I*' demanded by the popular will, and if under such policy' manufactur ing should he dwarfed or dip in other sec tions, the South would still remain self pndarted through nature’s laws and still find her margins for profit. Ido not ignore the fact that the South labors for the present under tho disadvantages of a want oiexjjertaiire nnd trained labor, but these we eaV butime transfer from the North or aGpore 'Aong ourselves—hut the North can rr*yw tifmaicr or acquire our inovtimable ifitnatife' or other natural advantages. U- reheat I that no man con pre df44 what the people of this country will de c amt in the future as to tariffs rind taxa tion, but effc- manufacturer ought, to lie able t>, sv that prudence and safety demand that lie transfer at I hist a portion of his pliuit’to that sodtion of our country where UjamiHrtuier* i*n live with or without gov ernment protection. Werll a I’ermsfJ vania iron worker or a Ma*ac|(*ltt cijMou spinner, I might, and {tertians w-o.itd, freyor a high protective tar iff, But tyere t either and wise, I think that I would flafhaiu neither long; for I would rentovp OFtM* iwtMfon where inv profits I will not undertake to predict, the length of time to elapse before a mighty,.manufac turing development will occur ill Inis sec tion. But that it will occur is as sure a* the laws of the universe are fixed, y* ho or what can prevent it? How can yo# check this beautiful Cumberland river inVts on ward course to the sear You mnY P l * e across its currents your granite hills, \ut it will rise above them and overflow ob structions. You may pile hill upon Mill, but its tide will still swell and rise nbAye it and overflow it. Yes. you can check t!V river’s progress, but to do so you must pil* your barrier as high as the river’s source—V as high as the crystal springs that burst from the mountain’s base, or the show drifts that melt on the mountain's side, or the dew drops that tremble on the moun tain's brow. So to prevent the South's primacy in manufacturing industry for the future, you mast build your barriers as high as heaven itself, for iter pre-eminence is decreed by heaven’s laws. THEY WILL DRINK. New Ways of Dodging the Rhode Island Prohibitory Law. “Do you see that boy with the satchel?” remarked a business man to a Providence (R. I.) correspondent of the Sun tho other day. “That is the latest style for carrying drinks.” The boy, apparently about 9 years of age, was barefooted, in everyday attire, and the large satchel was the only indica tion that he haul any definite object in view in 1 icing on the street. The satchel, the writer’s informant explained, contained a bottle, und the bottle was probably full of the liquid which can be lawfully bought only on a physician’s prescription. The boy did not look as if he was in search of a doctor. This is but an instance of the hypocrisy which has become prevalent under prohibi tion, and of the methods resorted tom order fit maintain an appearance of compliance with the law, or rather to afford the au thorities an excuse for ignoring its violation. While the writer was conversing with the business man before mentioned, an express wagon pated. It contained several flour barrels on end. ••That’s the latest style for delivering whisky and ale,” remarked the well-in formed denizen. ‘ ‘Every one of those bar rels contain a keg or liottles, and the driver is a rumseller.” And, truly enough, the wagon turned into a gateway, near a building whose frqnt win flows were decorated with such signs as “Bavarian Tonic,” “Non-Intoxicating Hop Beer,” “Vienna Malt Bitters,” etc. It is amusing to note the various names under which formerly honest beverages nre now disguised. One of the writer's favorite tip ples in former years was ginger ole, an inno cent decoction,’with a warming and stimu lating influence on the stomach. Since pro hibition set in, the then “ginger ale” has changed its properties in a most alarming manner, and, dispensed at the a\ T erage bar, it now resembles the strongest brew that ever paid a government tax in Albany or New Hampshire. Hop and root beers have also become demoralized, and the only safe course for a consistent abstainer is to confine himself to milk, ice cream and tea. Coffee also is usually above suspicion, though liable to be flavored with brandy. But the law is practically a dead letter. Even the most respectable drug stores treat it with contempt. “I don’t hesitate to sell liquor when I am satisfied it is needed for sickness,” said a leading druggist, “although I xvill not sell it for a beverage. ” And there is no concealment about these sales, a label with the name of the liquor sold being pasted upon the bottle, just as in the case of any medicine. It is worth noting that no drug gist has been prosecuted, in I’rox'idenee at least, for bona fide sales of liquor for use in sickness, the authorities not seeming to care to test public sentiment on this issue. In fact, the legal machinery of the State and of municipalities, active and efficient in dealing with recognized crimes, is affected with paralysis when prohibition is touched. THEY ALL GAMBLE. Even the Office Boy Speculates in Wall Street. Fniin the Sew York Tribune. Mr. Von Goldstein telegraphs his broker: “Sell ten thousand Northwest.” The broker says to himself: “Ah! the old fox is going to get out.” He tosses the order to the bookkeeper and rushes down to the ex change. The bookkeeper, before entering it. takes n S2O bill from the till, debts himself with it on the books, and, calling a messenger boy, says to him: “Run to Handcuffs & Darby with this note and money. Fly!” The boy tiles out of the office and around the corner, and then rends the note: “Sell for me twenty shares Northwestern at 125.” Instead of going to the bucket shop in New street, the boy runs up Broadway to Wall, down Wall and Exchange place, and finally to the des tined shop. But in the meantime he has met half a dozen or more of “pals,” and has said to them: “.Say, cully, look at this. HereN a point for ver. Got any money t Lemme have it.” From one and the other he gets 25c., or £l, or something until he probably succeeds in raising the necessary $5 —the lowest sum you can play on in a bucket shop. Then he goes, before delivering his message, to another bucket shop and cries out to the clerk, ‘Say, I’ll sell you five N. W. at 125.” The clerk takes his order and the money, halances a <|iiarter on his finger and says: “Whehe did you get that, sonny!” Sonny reaches out for the quarter and replies in breathless haste, “Old Goldstein ordered our Ixiss to sell out this morning.” Meanwhile the bookkeeper has handed the order to the telegraph operator, and he ap pears to be engaged for several minutes in calling up the o[>erator who has to take the order for transmission to the gentleman rep resenting the Ann on the stock exchange. In reality he is talking to some of his chums on this "point," and asking them to “go it” for him. on the other clerks get hold of the information, a pool is made, and one slqis out, to a restau rant near by which has a telephone and orders Northwest to lie sold to the extent of his fellow workers' fiool. During the morning there are. a number of loungers in the front rixim of the office, some of whom are in the habit of “tipping” the clerks. One of them snvs: “Hello, Godfrey, any newsf” Vnd the clerk answers: “Sell North west. Big thing.” Two or three of the broker's customers then take a walk, and it happens to Is- in the direction of a bucket shop. In this way the spirit of gambling may Is. said to prevail throughout the pur lieus of Wall street. New Mills for Tennessee. Athexs, Tenn., June 2.—There was a great sale of land at Athens to-day. This is the first of the East Tennessee interior towns to feel the effects of the present re vival throughout the South. Eighty-seven thousand dollars’ worth of lots were sold at auction, insuring the erection of new cotton and woolen mills. Danville’s Tobacco Trade. Danville, V a.. June 2. —The leaf tobacco sold in this market during the month of May amounted to 3,251,’>82 pounds, at an average of £B7B per 100. Total sales since October were 1 7,:V>7, T00 pounds, at an aver age of £sii per 100. Tailors and Sawyers. From the Klmirn Gazette. Miss Sawyer, who is |xx>r, was Introduced at a lunch party to Miss Taylor, who is rich, and was coldly received. Miss Sawyer is bright and knows her own antecedents and Miss Taylor’s also She was unaliashed and spoke cheerily: “I’m so gbui to meet you. I've often wanted to. It’s so funny— iny nanv is Sawyer and my grandfather was a tailor, ana your name Taylor and your grandfather wns sawyer. Mine used to make clothes for yours, and yours used to saw wood for mine.” Verily we got our rewards. FUNERAL INVITATIONS. KOSTRAND The friends of Mrs. Ann Nob tpand and Mrs. Nellie F.
