The Courier-Journal says : “It is no

fights, strike each other in the mouth,
and adds, a congressman’s mouth is
always his weak point.”
The proofs are growing stronger,
and unmistakably show that Herr
Most, Parsons, Spies, Fielden and
others, were engaged in a most deter
mined purpose to produce a bloody
revolution. They doubtless supposed
the revolution, started at Chicago,
would extend over the whole country
and to effectually start it, it was nec
essary to open it with the shedding
of blood. In their ignorance they im
agined that the many strikers all over
the country, would almost necessarily
become participants in it. Throwing
the bomb and destroying a good ma
ny lives was intended to open the rev
olution, it was the ball to start it, but
they discovered almost immediately,
that there was not only little energy
in their presumptious purpose, but
immediate terror in those by whom
the ball was to be set in motion.
They were quick to perceive their
mistake, and the ring-leaders dispers
ed to seek safety in flight and con
cealment.
We cannot find room for the tedious
revelations of the trial. We have no
doubt some of the ring-leaders will be
found guilty, and expiate their crimes
upon the gallows, while others will be
put to hard labor in the penitentiary,
and, perhaps, others will be expelled
from the country with the condition
imposed of death should they dare to
return.
These criminals, as is well known,
and has been shown on the trial, were
well prepared with rifles, swords, dy
namite, and other materials for dead
ly purposes, which were used with ter
rific effect. Thirty odd American cit
izens, most of them being officers of
the government to preserve peace and
order, were killed in the most inhu
man manner, and to let them escape,
even by expulsion from the country,
would be revolting to the sense of
justice of our people, and disgraceful
to us as a government. It is likely
the trials will last for some days, per
haps weeks yet, but the shadows on
the wall portend retribution for the
deliberate murder of American citizens.
Anything short of that, would invite
new atrocities and profane our na
tional honor. This is a case in which
moderation and mercy would be
flagrant and disgraceful crime.
Washington Letter.
From Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, July 26, 1886.
The enterprise of a great national
celebration of the centennial inaugu
ration of the first president in 1889 is
gathering sure weight and momen
tum. Many Senators and Members
favor it, and. encouraging assurances
of co-operation have been received
Some of the journals and hosts of
his friends are congratulating Hon.
Jno. S. Davidson upon his re-nomina
tion for Senator from the 18th district.
The whole State is gratified. His
reputation extends all over the State,
and in fact it is national. He occu
pies a high place in the hearts of the
people. _ ,

gets cheaper the further it has to be
hauled.—Savannah News.
A newspaper in Illinois recently
brought suit against forty-three men
who would not pay their subscription,
and obtained judgment in each case
for the full amount of the claims. Of
these, twenty-eight made affidavit
that they owned no property in ex
cess of what the law allowed them,
thus preventing an attachment.
Then, under the law of Congress
making the taking of a newspaper
from a post office without paying for
it, theft, they were arrested for petit
larceny and bound over in the sum of
$300 each. All but six gave bail, and
the others went to jail.
Storms, Cyclones and Drouths.
These evidently occur, and are more
disastrous, in sections where timber
lands are least plentiful. The people
in all sections of * the country must
begin at once to plant trees on large
scales, and, in doing so, should make
up their minds to use less land in cul
tivation. The more open the country
is the more disastrous the storms. As
it will take half a century to derive
any great advantage from erecting
forests, we shall say nothing at pres
ent about them. The recent storm in
Illinois mowed down the corn which
was six feet high and cut it off close
to the ground. As corn can be suc
cessfully planted from the middle of
March until 2\ months before frost,
the plan should be adopted to have
several plantings. By doing that, if
the first planted should be destroyed,
other planting of small corn might be
saved. Tall corn full of ears will fall
before the storm, while other smaller
corn would escape, and so of other
crops. There can be several plantings
of cotton, and -several sowings of
grain. By this policy the whole crop
will not be destroyed. This sugges
tion is worthy of consideration. The
writer has planted cotton as late as
the 10th of June, that did as well as
other cotton planted two months or
Less land and sever
al plantings in a term of years is the
safest policy to escape the destruction
caused by storms, insects and drouths.

A Terrific Explosion.
Chicago, July 25.—A terrific ex
plosion occurred in Armon's oleomar
garine factory this morning. A large
tank became overcharged with steam
and exploded with frightful force,
sending the boiling contents over
four men, while two others at thirty
yards distance were injured by flying
debris. Thos. Dolan died from the
efiect of injuries and James Bailey is
not expected to live.
from every part* of the Union. It is
proposed to make this national cele
bration a prelude to the commemora
tion of the grandest event in the an
nals of time—the discovery of the
New World by Christopher Columbus,
the four hundredth anniversary of
which will be in 1892. In view of' the
magnitude and sublimity of tl\e en
terprise, it cannot be said that its pro
moters have begun too early to sur
vey its dimensions, to lay its founda
tion in the popular heart, to sketch its
superstructure, and even to plan the
details of its installation.
It is proposed that the celebration
shall take the form of it World’s Fair,
and the situation most favored is the
flats South of the White House, cov
ering an area of three hundred acres,
and, as it w ere, in the midst of the
city.
The shape of Washington may be
rqughly described as that of a cres
cent with its horns resting on the Po
tomac—the right at Georgetown, the
left at the Arsenal. Between these
two horns lie the flats, bounded on
the West by the river, and on the
East, North and South by the Naval
Observatory, the War, State and Na
vy Departments, the White House, the
Treasury, the Smithsonian Institu
tion, and the National Museum. In
the midst stands Washington’s Monu
ment, the highest structure in the
world. From every part of the
grounds may be seen the towering
Capitol of the United States, and, for
a background, are the evergreen hills
ot Arlington on the right bank of the
Potomac. Never have Nature, Art,
and History done so much to make an
exposition great and a celebration
sublime. At the centennial exposi
tion in 1876, and at Paris in 1878, it
was necessary to travelon an average
about three miles before the Exposi
tion grounds could be reached. Here
no part of the city will be more than
a mile and a half from the Exposition,
and the greater part will not be farth
er than a half mile. Here on the very
confines of the proposed situation are
museums, the Corcoran Art Gallery,,
and the finest specimens of architect
ure in the world. In other words,
there is here already a permanent Ex
position, and the promoters of the
great enterprise find the work half
finished to their hands.
The enterprise is one of infinite pos
sibility. There is a strong sentiment
*in favor of making the Exposition
permanent—an exhibition at the Na
tional Capital, year in and year out,
of the products and resources and in
dustrial progress of each of the sever
al States and Territories of the Union;
and not only of the States and Terri
tories, but of the other Governments
of the three Americas, forming in the
aggregate a vast panoramic display
of the art, science and agriculture, the
native wealth and skilled industries,
the varied ethnological phases and
the civilized development of the Wes
tern Hemisphere.
The magnitude of the results thus
sought to be reached surpasses all
previous conceptions of a similar
character, yet the practicability of the
scheme is easily comprehensible, arid
its expense within the bounds of sim
ple business computation, it being un
derstood that the general Govern
ment will grant the use of the neces
sary grounds and contribute its own
valuable collections to the enrichment
of the great international exhibit.
The States and Territories co-oper- j
ating in the project, either singly or
in groups, would merely be called up
on to erect such buildings, for th^ir
own occupation, as immediate needs
might require. The cost to each, in
view of the accruing advantages,
would be scarcely more than that of
an ordinary State fair. Foreign gov
ernments participating in the exposi
tion would of course have their sepa
rate departments and the necessary
space allotted to them. The Govern
ment at Washington, having a gener
al supervisory direction of the whole
would add from time to time such aids
and accessories as the growth? of the
enterprise might suggest.
So simple in its details, so capable
of realization without any extrava
gant expenditure, yet of such infinite
possibilities, the project assumes pro
portions that are fairly overpowering
in their immensity. Nothing in an
cient or contemporary history ap
proaches it in grandeur—this splendid
Bazar of the Continent upon the
banks of the Potomac—a constant ad
vertisement of the wonderful resour
ces of the American nations that will
permeate the commerce of the world
with new and vigorous inspiration,
arid a constant educator of the people
in all that pertains to their higher civ
ilization.
Already are many Governors of
States, commercial exchanges and re
presentative bodies signifying their
THE TRAIN WRECKERS.
From tlie Chicago Ledger.
“During the winter of 1861-2 a con
tinual warfare was kept up in Missou
ri with the guerrilla bands.
“They are the most terrible pests of
a country, even when anxious to de
fend it, and the ordinary guerrilla is a
friend to no one but himself.
“I was often out upon the chase,
and several fierce skirmishes took
place. A band of guerrillas had taken
possession of the Missouri railroad,
and burned the bridges, tore up the
rails, and brought about a desolation
that half a dozen battles would not
have caused.
“I met with ah adventure at this
time which evidences the bloody and
ruthless character of these outlaws.

cember that I started from the com
mand for a small station some t wenty

"I had business with a gentleman
in the village, and rode across the
country, intending to leave my horse
—I owned a good one at that time—
with my acquaintance, and return
with the supply train, which was ex
pected at that time.
“The day was as bad a one as I
could have well chosen; the bleak air
swept over the prairies, chilling horse
and man to the very bone.
“I should have waited for a fairer
day; but the train was expected up in
the morning, I was anxious to go,
and had already been delayed several
days.
“So I started early, and rode along
cheerfully enough for the first five
miles, when a genuine western storm
arose, and began to rage with the fu
ry that is only witnessed in those tree
less districts.
“I was soon soaked through to the
skin, the rain beat upon my face,
fiercely, and I wished myself back at
camp, or anywhere else out of the
storm.
“I believe we were five hours trav
eling the succeeding five miles, and at
the end of that time I was nearly fro
zen.
“The fear of losing my way added
still more to my distress, for there
were no fences or other land marks,
and the ground was being fast cover
ed by the beating snow, which suc
ceeded the rain.
“My clothing was frozen stiff, and
the neck and breast of my horse was
covered with sheets of frozen breath
and blood which had oozed from his
swelling nostrils.
“I must find shelter, I thought, or
perish in the most horrible manner.
“Suddenly I noticed smoke arising
in the distance. No house was visible
and it has seemed remarkable to me
that I observed the smoke; a fortun
ate chance was the cause, perhaps.
“No house was to be seen, the place
was in the hollow of the prairie, and
I rode within twenty rods of the door
ere I saw the way.
“Getting off the horse with difficul
ty, my limbs had become stiffened
with cold, I was about to approach
the house, when it occurred to me
that it would be as well to reconnoiter
a little.
“A band of outlaws might be har
boring there, and then I would w ish
myself outside again, cold as it was.
* “Speaking kindly to the horse, who
stretched his nose against me for
warmth, I fastened the bridle to a
shrub and stole cautiously toward the
house.
“Making a circuit, I approached
from the back of the building. It
was a poor affair, the habitation of a
prairie farmer, evidently; but there
was shelter for man and beast.
“As I came up the door at the side
opened. I had but time to escape
around the corner, when three men
issued out.
“They were rough looking fellows,
warmly clad, and I at once,concluded
to give them a wide berth.
“With some imprecations at the
weather they hurried to the stable,
Which fronted the road.
‘‘When they reappeared it was up
on fleet-looking horses, and they then
rode away toward the north.
“I watched them out of sight, and
then approached the cabin again.
Listening, I could hear no one, and
thought the place was untenanted.
“I resolved to take advantage of
the shelter, arid hastening back to my
poor horse I soon left him munching
hay in the little stable, and myself
hurried on to the house.
. “I was nearly ready to drop with
fatigue and cold, and, waiting for no
ceremony, I opened the door And en
tered.
“A fire was burning on one side of
the poorly furnished apartment, and
hurrying forward I spread out my per
son to the blaze.
‘‘I had seen no one as yet, but a voice
sounded from a back room a moment
later.
“ ‘Is that you, Carl?’’ asked a wo
man’s voice.
“I explained that I was a traveler,
nearly frozen, and had taken the
liberty to enter the house, as I saw no
one about.
“A tall, wrinkled old woman, with a
very erect carriage, came in from the
kitchen.
‘•She looked at me searehingly, as I
made my excuse, and I thought a sad
expression appeared upon her face.
What could it mean, or was I mis
taken?
“I decided that the latter was the
case, and lying back in the hard chair,
I enjoved the fire as a man only can
when he has been chilled through to
the bone.
“My dozing was broken by the
sound of voices outside; men were
approaching the. house: The old
woman seemed to shrink with fear as
she heard the sound. *
“Rising to my feet, expecting some
disaster, I placed my hand upon my
pistol and waited.
“The door opened and twenty men,
I counted them as they came in sing
ly, filed into the room.
“They were all armed with rifles,
and an entire arsenal of small arms,
and I knew I was in the presence of a
band of guerrillas.
“There wq,s no help for it, however,
the men had seen my horse, and
doubtless knew my character.
“ ‘Put up your shooter and surren
der,’ saida tall, red-headed man, who
seemed be the leader, ’You shan’t be
hurt so long as you remaid quiet.”
“ ‘But who are you? I returnen
with as much resolution as I could
summon up. ‘It would not be policy
to surrender until I know to whom
I ’ *
OLD FOGY.
“A loud laugh from the entire crowd
cut off my speech.
“ ‘That’s a good one,’ said the tall
individual. ‘ ’Twas just lettin’ you
down kinder easy ’cause you cum in
to my place unawares. We can kill
you easy enough, if you insist upon
it.’
“I did not- Resistance, would be
the last thing I should attempt against
such overpowering numbers.
“I handed over my weapons to the
leader, and he ordered two of the
gang to take me into the back-room
and watch while they conferred to
gether.
“I passed nearly an hour in the
back-room, listening to the talk go
ing forward in front. From the brok
en words I heard I pieced out the fol
lowing:
“The suply train, due tomorrow,
was to pass this afternoon, and the
outlaws were plotting its destruc
tion.
“The track was nearly a mile from
the house, and the le&der concluded
to go at last. He entered the room
where I sat, and ordered the guards to
watch me closely.
“One of them pleaded so strongly
to go upon the expedition the leader
submitted, and when the men left
was alone with the old woman and
the single robber.
“My own fears and troubles had
been swallowed up by the more im
portant news I had received regard
ing the train.
“It was quite valuable, being much
required by the troops at the time.
There were several officers on board,
also, and their capture or death
would be a great loss.
“To shorter^ a long story, I had a
flask of liquor in my poiket; the out
law a larger in his own possesion, and
he also had an appetite for a larger
quantity than was obtainable.
“He drank up the liquor in his own
flask in a very few minutes, and my
own followed immediately afterward.
“As might have deen expected, the
cold and the liquor threw him in a
drunken slumber. I now decided to
leave the house at any risk;
“The old woman had remained in
the front room. Slowly I drew away
the ruffian’s weapons. I had been left
unbound, and warned by my own es
cape, I proceeded to secure the fellow
without awakening him. I then en
tered the front room and prevailed
with the old lady to allow me to serve
her in the same way.
“Five minutes later I had mounted,
my horse and was riding at break
neck speed toward the railroad
track.
“I heard the engine whistle shrilly
as I left the stable, and knew the
probabilities were against my reach
ing the spot in time to do any good.
“I rode with the speed of the wind
over the snow-covered ground, and
came into view of the track just as
the train halted.
“Reining the steed back, I looked
at the cars; they were already in the
possession of the outlaws.
“A couple of men had gone up the
track with a red flag, and had halted
the train—in an ambush of their fel
lows.
“They jumped on board, with shouts
and screams of triumph, while the
bullets rattled fiercly.
“Disappointed that I had not been
a few minutes earlier, I watched the
rascals.
“The soldiers upon the train were
all dead or prisoners, and then the
outlaw's left the cars.
“Standing together in a body, they
consulted for a moment,, and then the
engine v’as uncoupled, two men leap
ed upon it and drove down the track.
“I watched them with baited breath.
What did they intend to do? It was
soon explained.
“The locomotive was stopped again
a few miles away, the lever was
thown back, and the engine rushed
bacx upon the cars with the speed of
the avalanche.
“A moment, and it collided with
the foremost car, plowed its way
through, and soon the valuable sup
ply train was but a mass of smoking
ruins.” , , ,
The colonel stopped and drew a
long breath. ' „
“I tell you it was a thrilling night,'
he said, ajter a moment; “but the
guerrillas soon paid for the damage.
“I escaped without difficulty, and
reached camp ag&in that night. The
following week witnessed the destruc
tion of that band of bushwhackers,
for the' soldiers were maddened by
the loss of their supplies, and rested
not a moment until they revenged
it.

^ , July 24, 1886. >*
On the 4th day of March, 1850, Mr.
Calhoun entered the Senate Chamber,
supported on one side by his col
league, Judge Butler, and on the oth
er by Senator Morton, of Virginia,
who escorted him to his seat. He
was so pale and emaciated that he
looked like a corpse. His health had
been failing him for a year, and dur
ing that time he appeared only oeca-
sionally in the Senate. After resting
a short time by the aid of another he
rose and said, in feeble tones, that he
had prepared and had printed the re
marks he intended to offer, but, as he
felt too feeble to perform the task of
delivering them, he would ask the
favor of Senators to allow his friend,
Senator Mason, to read them. The
^ ues ^ was, of course, granted.
That speech was but little more than
a r ® c ^I ) ^ u ^ a tion of the sentiments
he had often expressed on the slavery
question. ;
An intelligent writer thus describes-
the scene:
“The reading of this speech by Mr.
Mason—the Seriate chamber and gal
leries filled to overflowing—the ap-
pearance of Mr Calhoun, standing as
all knew he. did, upon the brink of the*
grave, wrapped in a cloak, his long,
white bushy hair hanging wildly down
the side of his pale emaciated face; his
countenance lightning up and his eye
flashing out of its deep socket as he
cast it around on Senators when cer
tain passages were read, as if to ar
rest their attention and enforce his
words with its Avonted fire, was a
most unique, impressive and dramatic
scene. He was, by the voice of a
friend, uttering his last and most em
phatic words in that illustrious body,
of which he had long been one of the
most distinguished members. It was
his last appearance in the Senate; of
this he and all others w'ere conscious.
As he left his seat, supported by his
venerable colleague, Judge Butler,,
and by Mr. Mason, the Senators gath
ered around him to expretes their sym
pathies and bid him an affectionate and;
eternal adieu. Supported by his two
friends, he then passed slowly out..
Impressive as were his last words,,
his own appearance was incompara
bly more so.”*
DEATH OF MR. CALHOUN.
Twenty-seven days thereafter, March;
31, 1850, he died, aged sixty-eight
years and thirteen days. His* death
was announced in the. Senate the next
day by his late colleague, Judge
Butler, on which occasion Mr. Clay
and Mr. Webster delivered some
touching and eloquent remarks. They,
too, .were to follow their early, com
panion (the three entered Congress '
almost simultaneously, in a little more
than two years.
MR. CLAY SOON FOLLOWS.
Mr. Clay’s extraordiaary labors in
originating and effecting the adoption
of the compromise measures in the
Congress of 1850 impaired his health.
After the close of that Congress,
March 4th, 1851, we went to New York
and took passage from there to Ha
vana, hoping to derive benefit from a
milder climate. He remained in .Ha- •
vana but a short time, as his health
did not seem to improve, and th&R
proceeded home by way of New Or
leans and the Mississippi. Though
afflicted with a distressing cough, he
went to Washington at the commence
ment of the Thirty-second Congress,
but the fatigue of the journey so
weakened him and his cough so in
creased that he was not able to take
his seat, nor was he able to leave his
room. His son Thomas soon reached
his bedside and remained with him to
the end. He died on the 27tl> of June
1852, aged seventy-fiv/i years two
months and seventeen days. His
death was announced the next day in.
both houses of Congress, and eloquent
eulogies were pronounced upon him.
THE FUNERAL SOLEMNITIES
took place' the second day after his
death. The remains were placed in
the rotunda of the Capitol for some
hours, and were viewed by thousands.
They were then sent to Ashland, Iris
own beloved home, where they now
repose. Thus another of the Great
Triumvirate had passed away. The
third still remained, but soon to fol
low his great compeers.
Daniel Webster died at his favorite
home, Marshfield, Mass:, surrounded
by his family and a few devoted
friends, on the 21th of October 1852,
aged seventy years nine months and
six days. He was then Secretarv of
.State under President Fillmore.
