Hhad In Arkansas.Seven years ago a lot of little shad were

placed in the Ouachita river, which rises inArkansas, flows into Louisiana, and emptiesinto the lied river, in the latter State. .Noth-ing was seen of them for a long while, andmost people had forgotten the experiment,when two years aco two or three stray shad,the first that had ever been known in the re-

gion, were caught. Last year between thirtyand forty were taken, and this spring theyhave been caught ia immense quantities inArkansas, in the vicinity of Hot Springs.This shows that there is no reason why thefish should not bo domesticated in the farsouth, and tho New s papers call uponthe people along the rivers ia that region tostock them wiui young snau.

Lorenzo do 11 edict's Heath.Clark, in his Life and Times of Sarona

the sack of Volterra, the money takenfrom the Monto dalle Fanciulle, and theblood shed in punishing those who were im-plicated in the Pazzi conspiracy. Whilespeaking of these things he became greatlyagitated, and Savonarola, to calm biui, kepton repeating: "God is good. Cod is meroi-fu- i.

Bat," he went on, "you must do threethings." "What are they, father?" askedJren .o. The countenance of Savonarola be-- i

v'i as, extending tho fingers of hisfiLt liau ho ropllod: "First, you must

u nr. 1. aud hying faith iu the mercy of

MEMGod." uJji that I have the greatest faith.""Secondly, you must restore all that youhave wrongfully taken away, or instructyour sons to make restitution for you." Fora moment this demand seemed greatly todistress Lorenzo; but, at last, making aneffort, he signified his assent by an inclination of rm head. 1 be third requirement wasyet to be made. Savonarola became stillmore solemn in manner, and seemed to increase in stature, as, in terrible earnestness,he continued: "Lastly, you must restoreliberty to yoir native country, as it was inthe early days of the republic of France."It was touching the root of the man's familypride and ambition. Summoning his re-

maining strength, he Htiferily turned his backupon the frier, end refused to utter anotherword, bavonarobi ueparted without pro-nouncing absolution, and Lorenzo died soonafterward, on the same day, April 8, 1492.

Dallas. Texas, Juno 26. The Marshallof the Herald sends that paper

the facts ot an interview between rum andColonel George Noble, general

of the Texas and Pacific railroad, to-da- y,

on the rumored consolidation ot the bt. Ltouu,Iron Mountain and Southern and Texa3 andPacific railroads. He gave tho following authoritative information: "A combinationin the interest of both roads is pending,sulject to the present negotiation go-ing on in New York. This contem-plates a transfer of stock among the principal stockholders of each road, but does notcontemplate a change ot management oteither road. Both will be run underserara'.elocal departments and directories as hereto-fore. The combination is for the purpose ofincreasing tbe traffic over tho Iron Mountain,through the Texas and Pacific and intendedfeeders. The extension of the main linewestward is not deemed as important now esbuilding branches from Elmo, Dallas andWeatherford. A branch trom tlmo or WillsPoint, running to Waco, wouldenter a powerful competition againstthe new St. Louis narrrow-gaug- e.

A branch from Dallas, extendingthrough Comanche and also crossing theWaco extension ot tbe Houston and lexasCentral. This union of tho interests of thes etwo companies will be a strong and formidable one, and backed by the During urotbers,of London, will exert an immense influ-ence over the trade of Texas. It may prop-erly be considered a broad gauge rival of thepresent railroad project ot the be. Liouis com-press company with its narrow guage enter-prise from St. Louis to Waco."

Error to the circuit court of Lauderdalecounty, Hon. J. S. Hamm, judge.' Thia wa3an action of assumpsit by defendant in error,airainet plaintiff in error, for the value of slot Of cotton bought by the latter, on whichthe former held a deed ot trust, rlaintinsin error are merchants at Meridian, inLauderdale county, where the cotton wasraised and the deed of trust recorded. It wasclaimed that the deed of trust would notbind the cotton outside of the county inwhich it was recorded. Also, that as defendant in error was only tho usee in the deed oftrus, he could not recover; that the trusteealone could bring the suit. It was furtherclaimed that this action could not lie, thatthe suit should have been in reu.

Judge Campbell held- -

1. The result reached in the circuit court inthis case is correct.

2. The fact that tho cotton wai sold incounty other than in which the deed of trustwas recorded did not release it from the deedof trust.

3. A deed of trust does not create a merelien. It confers title, and after conditionbroken, tho legal title is in tho grant jo, andho may maintain any action which an ownercan maintain.

4. As the defendant in ei ror is tho personbeneficially interested in tho proceeds of thecotton, and would properly be the usee of anaction in the name of tho trustee for thevalue or tho cotton, we disregard mere formand hold that the action was properly broughtby him. ,.

rible and fiendish act that sent ashuddor through the frame of every onewho witnessed it. Dinkel, manifest-ing the very ugliest disposition, wasdragged, as his struggles to got f wouj jnot admit of his h'- - carried, ouYinto the

rrivor and laid upon the floor. He hadliterally cut his throat from ear to ear,tho cuts being cf a V shape, and he died athali-pa- nt twelve. The murder alleged tohave been committed by Dinkel occurred onthe fourth of May, his victim being his wife,Barbara, whose body was found in a cow-ba- rn

in the rear of their home, No. 12Hinckley street. Thero were wounds nponthe body, and it was an unsettled questionas to whether ho killed her by hanging orwith some weapon, or, indeed, killed her atall. .

A. lcep Mystery Hurronndlojc a Ttr.rible 11 order.St. Lov;8, June 28. At a very late hour

last night meager information was receivedhere that Mrs. 'Agnea Dieckmann, the wife

t William , a farmer living atI'iuil li'df, t. 1 tnis county, bout twenty

IDAIL Ymiles from this city, had been very mysteriously murdered in bed early yesterday morn-ing. To-nig- aditional information was re-ceived, but nothing which clears up tho mys-tery or fastens the deed upon anybody. Itappears that Williamabout four o'clock yesterday morning, andcame to St. Louis to sell some farm products,leaving his wile in bed, aud Joseph Siockli,a neighbor, who had helped him to preparefor market in the morning, nt his bouse.Some three hours later, Fred Schapcr, Mrs.Diecktnann s brother, called at the house,where ho found Stockli and a negro mannam?d Lyle, ho were goiosr to cut wheatfor Dieckmann. and. not finding his sister up.he and Stockli went to her room, and foundher dead in bed. wita the remnant ot anold calico dress on, with a bullet- -hole in tha forehead, another justbehind tbe Jet c ear, and still another in theneck, several slight cuts on the head andneck, and the bed raturated with blood.Intense excitement followed the discovery.Esquire Havens was notified and a coroner'sjury summoned. Testimony was taken, butno evidence waa elicited implicating any oneas the perpetrator of the deed. Dieckmannreturned home daring the afternoon, butcould throw no fight on the mystory. He expressed the belief, however, that btocbli committed the murcer, and the latter was ar-rested. Dieckmann was also arrested andboth lodged in jail. Mrs. Dieckmann's infant about a year old, was found in bed withits murdered tnojr. The deepest kind of amystery surrouuvV the whole aft'iir, und thoinquest will be continued until a thorough in-

The County of the President-Islan- d Workhouse, Stands

Up In his Own Defense andWer'.es Stoat of the

Charges of the erand Jury lie Demands an by the

County Court lie Claims tobe a (Wood Officer.

President's Island. June 27. 1879.To the Public:

As agent of the county to superintend thecounty workhouse, 1 deem it due to myselfto call your attention to certain articles thathave recently appeared in tbe city papersrelative to the workhouse and my connectionwith it. The report of the grand jury andtheir newspaper locals do tho greatestinjustice to myself, as well as failto state the facts accurately or fairly.The grand jury made a hasty visit oftwo or three hours to the workhouse, andfrom their conversation with the criminals,and without.. u I think, dueli.aa msuld thoir Kocrt. It io my uui,deny most positively and someof the charges in their report. The quarterswhere the prisoners are kept are swept outevery morning, the beds dusted and madeup. The beds and bedding used by theprisoners is about of the same characteras that which is used by myself and theguards. The privy-tub- s are taken outevery morning and washed, and when thereis no one sick in the prison are left out allday to sud. The privy-vaul- ts are scouredout and limed at least twice a week. I donot claim that the bads are entirely free fromlice and dust. Prisoners frequently come tothis prison with lice oa them, and in order toprevent their increase I always have theirclothing changed before entering the prison.I have hacMheir clothing boiled in salt andsoda, and used carbolic acid freely to get ridof them, and my effortsin this direction it has been impossible thusfar to get entirely rid of them. As to thesick, I give them my personal supervision,and see that they are carfully attended t3.They are not fed oh the same food that isgiven the laborers, and any fair and thorough

would have led;the grand juryso to report. The sick are supplied withsuitable diet. The food for the prisoners issound and wholesome, and I daresay as goodas half the laboring class of Shelby countyget. Each prisoner gets six pounds of meatper week, and more, if wanted, with one ortwo kinds of vegetables every day for dinner;for surDer they have milk, and all the meatand molasses they want. In the month ofMay 1 reported to the honorable chairman ofthe county court mat tnreo prisoners wereworked one eix days, one two days, and oneone day over their time, but for this surpluswork tbe prisoners were all paid by CaptainForrest fifty cents per day. There are casesof larceny where prisoners are workingout costs, which costs were sent down aspart of their sentence. It is these cases towhich tho grand jury refer as working overtheir time. Tnis matter 1 have before railedthe chairman's attention to. It ic a witterfor the courts and attorneys, and not for meto decide. The prisoners, also, m somecases, claim over detention, which aa investi-gation will show that they have escaped fromthe prison and been absent from ix monthsto two years, which time is not embracedtheir sentence, An ascurate account is keptof the time of sentence and amount of cost,end always open for inspection. I learnedfrom General G. P. M. Turner that a mem-ber of the grand jury stated that I refused toshow them my time-boo- k. If this statementwas made, I characterize it as a maliciousfalsehood. As to the punishment of theprisoners, I can only say that, since I havebeen here, I have known of no instanceof cruelty, and' 1 don't think therehas been any. The prisone the grand juryreport as being kept four days over time wasa mistake in carrying trom one entry to another, and is still at work for wages, his timecommencing from date ot discharge. In myconnection with the workhouse, I have donemy duty faithfully to the prisoners them-selves and to the county, and I have beenguided and controlled by the rulea prescribed by the court itself. If thoabuses are of the magnitude pointed outby the newspapers, they have not cometo my knowledge. 1 am extremely anxiousthat my connection with the workhouse, asthe agent of the county, should be investi-gated. I respectfully request that the honorable chairman will take such steps lookinginto my conduce as may seem io mm proper,and as may enable me to furnish the luliestvindication from the imputations cast uponme. nespecuuliy.

The house bill to Jcorrect two errors in thearmy bill approved June 13,1879,wa8 passed

Senator Beck, from the committee on ap'propriations, reported, without amendment.the bill making to pay feesfor United Stated marshals and their generaluc'puuea.

Senator Windom showed that, by section2021, the marshal, on the request of citi.ens,is obliged to appoint special deputies and supcrvisors. This bill makes it a penal offensetor marshals to obey the law. In view ofthese facts, he said there was not a parallelin all our history for such a measure. It wasnullification of the basest possible nature.

Senator Logan wished to enter his protestagainst the bill. He had been taught toobey the law; it wis tt,e nest duty of' a citi-zen. Jt rr.s aavr proposed to declare it hisikafc duty to disobey the laws. The Presi-dent is required to see that the laws arefaithfully executed; not part ot the laws, baitan or mem. ynoer tnia om tne wesK--p- re

Jn farther remarks SenatorLogan argued that the appoint-- "meat of supervisors would be cut offby this bill, regardless ot a permanent

for their pay. He re-viewed the provisions of the election laws;deputies were sot appointed to interfere withthe canting of ballots, but to preserve peacefor both parties, in the interest of all. Neverbefore had it been declared a penal offe tee tokeep the peace. Continuing, he said the billantagonized the theory of oar government,which, if obeyed, the logical result would bethat the people would learn to obey the lawsthat pleased them and disobey all others.The country would thus become Mexicanized.

After further debate Senator Allison movedto strike out the clause making it a penaloffense to violate any of the provisions of thebill, or of the various sections of the revisedstatutes. He objected on principle to at

taching a clause to bills of thischarter. Rejected yeas 14, nays 27.

Senator M'Millan moved to strike out allof the bill after the words, "That the sum ofsix hundred thousand dollars is hereby

etc., for the payment, during thefiscal year ending Jnno 30, 1880. of the feesof United States marshals and their generaldeputies." lie said that the extra sessionwas called for the purpose of passing the ap-propriation bills. In this bill, which was the"last ditch" ot the Democratic party, the

made were so hampered byrestrictions as to make necessary violationof law on tho part of the government. Hisamendment would make it a genuine appro-priation bill, and a vote upon the amend-ment would test the willingness of the Dem-ocrats to vote the necessary insuch shapo that the bill would become a law,and the money be devoted to a proper use.Rejected yeas, 15; nays, 27.

The bill was read the third time andpassed yeas, 25; nays, 15. In all the votesabove mentiojcd (which were strict partyvotes) it was necessary for eeveral senators tobreak their pairs in order to make a quotum.

Senator Allison moved to amend tbe titleof the bill by adding the words, "and forother purposes." Lost.

Senator Chandler moved to adjourn.Senator Beck said tbe bill just passed had

already gone to the house and would be backin twenty minutes, and he hoped the motionto adjourn would be withdrawn.

benator Chandler withdrew the motion.A short executive session was then held, andwhen the doors were reopened the senate ad-journed.

IN THE HOUSE.Mr. Mills moved the house proceed to the

business on the speaker's table. No quorumappeared, and finally Mr. Mills withdrew hismotion.

The house then resumed the considerationoi the senate bill exempting from license anil

vessels not propelled whollyoy sail or internal motive power of their own.A great deal of noise and confusionwas occasioned by Mr. Acklen. who claimedthat he was entitled to an hour to speak noonthe bill.

The speaker ruled that Mr. Acklen was notentitled to an hour, and was thanked bv Mr.Klotz. He said the question was whetherthe gentleman should control the bill and gethis name into the record as having passed athis bill, or whether the house should controlit. Applause.

Mr. Ryan I Pa l moved to strike oat theword "wholly . Adopted.

Mr. ivenna I W.Ya.1 submitted an amendment providing that nothing in the met or intbe existing law should be construed to require the enrolling and licensing of any fiat- -noat, Darge or use cratt not propelled bysail or internal motive power of its own.Adopted.

Ihe bill then passed.Mr. Atkins, chairman of the

committee, reported a bill amending the sun-dry civil act approved March 3, 1879, so as toauthorize the of geologicalsurveys to extend his examinations into theStates.

Mr. Wilson, from the committee on foreignaffairs, reported back the jjint resolutionproviding for a further treaty with Mexico.Passed yeas. 79: nays. 66. Tha resolutionauthorizes the President to appoint one ormore not to exceed three, at

salary of five thousand dollars each, to takesteps with the view of entering into a furthertreaty witn Mexico.

ihe effort to go to the business on thespeaker's table waa defeated bv the failureof a quorum to vote.

Mr. Blackburn, from the committee on appropriations, reported back the senate jointresolution in relerence to committee clerks,etc., with amendments which he said were asubstantial rejection of every feature of thejoint resolution. The report was agreed to,and a committee of conference ordered.

Mr. Stephens made an effort to have action attaken on the bill in reference to a settlementbetween the war department and Georgia onaccount of purchases made from the Westernand Atlantic railroad company, but objectionwas maoe.

Mr. Brewer made a similar ineffectualeffort to have action on the bill to create acommission on the alcoholic liquor traffic.

An Interesting and Important Case ThePetition to Compel tbe Apportion-

ment of Warrants Tor Hack SchoolMciipy Dismissed Trom Court

by Judge Bead, on

The Gronnd that the Amount had been OTald Into the Treasury In Bank of

Tennessee Notes An Appeal Ta-

kenThe Debt Settlement-Thomps- on's

Speech.

8peelal to the Appeal.Nashville, June 23. Judge Read to-d- ay

dismissed the petition for a mandamus tocompel tho comptroller to apportion andissue warrants for back school money allegedto be due to various counties in the State,on the ground that such claims had not beenproven, and the farther fact that the onehundred and fifty thousand dollars referredto was paid into the treasury in Bank ofTennessee notes, properly belonging to theschool-fun- d, but destroyed in obedience to anact of the legislature. This fund, therefore,could not be apportioned, the comptrolleronly being permitted to issue warrants onfunds actually in the treasmy and appropri-ated by the legislature. The comptroller wasright in resisting payment of the school-fun- d

mentioned, and no adjustment could be madeexcept through the action of the legislature.The case has been appealed to the supremecourt.

The Debt Settlement.Nashville American, Saturday: "Colonel

Robert E. Thompson, of Lebanon, spoke tocrowd of about one hundred and fifty per-

sons, at least half of whom were colored, onthe public square, last night, against the ac-ceptance by the people of the fifty and fourcompromise of the State debt. The princi-pal part of bw speech was devoted to an on-slaught on Governor Marks, referring atlength to and commenting npon his positionbefore h s election, his first message to thelegislature, and his letter published since theadjournment of the legislature urging theacceptance of the compromise. The governor Dad not given sumcient evidence,Colonel Thompson said, to show that enoughot tne oona Holders bad agreed to accept thefifty and four compromise. If enough hadbeen secured, it had been done throughthe influence of Baxter and Enloe,which was not intended by the act. He wassevere upon Porter and Ex- -Governor Brown, who, he said, belonged tothe aristocracy, and insinuated that thev andseveral editors had been bought np. Thecourse of the American, 'the leading Demo-cratic crgan of the State,' wm also com-mented npon. Colonel Thorn peon was for thepayment of the Herrnitaee bonds, and thaagricultural bonds. He was opposed to thepayment ot the eighteen million dollars railroad bonds. He said that a Tennessee editorhad been paid seven thousand dollars to secure the passage of one of the acts in aid ofthe railroads, but did not give his name."
