Medical assistance being summoned, by tbe use of proper restoratives; Mr. Fader was resuscitated, and at writing is in a fair way of recovery.

Mr. Fader is an estimable young man, and is well known both in this citv and 4 Vieksbtinr, where he was born. We wish him a speedy convalescence. On the day of the recent election In this county, Torn Nenneut, I'. W.

Miller and Anderson Benin were ar-rrsted by the 1'nited States Marshal because of alleged violations of the fourth and fifth sections of the act of Congress designed to ent ree the fifteenth ainend-m. nt. Henry A. Lewis, Gallagher and another, a palieeiiian, will appear before the United Slates Commissioner, Smith, this morning, when tbe extent to which tbe act ot Congress has been violated, and tbe punishment to be awarded will be determined. Messrs.

Xormeut, Bettis and Miller have been discbarged, because there was no prosecution. Sheriff Long, ot Jbfierson county, and Mayor Key. of Rodney, passed through the city en route for home, having in charge two prisoners, named Win. Carrol and John McDonald, who are charged with the murder of a negro man In Rodney on the of October last. These men, along with one other, who is yet at large, and whose name we do not give for that reason, were captured at Rodney shortly after the murder, but made their escape in March last, and went to Madison, where they were re cently recaptured.

The "whereabouts" of the other party is known, and he will no doubt soon lie arrested. Tbe sheriff and party left yesterday evening for Rodney. Tbe chief topic of conversation on the streets yesterday among all classes was the late exciting news from the seat of war in Europe. Our German population were jubilant, and the French and their sympathisers were correspondingly disappointed and disheartened. All seemed, however, to think that the battle won by the Prussians was but a prelude a skirmish, as it were, to one that would be fought in a day or wo.

All sorts of absurd rumors were current, around the i streets during the afLernoon. One which obtained some credence, strsnge to say, was to tbe effect that Napoleon had abdicated in favor of his son. Reporters, newspaper men, and all others supposed to have information, were waylaid and pumped" at every step, and the desire for news could hardly be greater, were the L'nited States a party in light. The Saratogian gets off the following: "It is one of the most amusing sights in tbe world to watch a young and inexperienced attempt to peregrinate slan-tindicularly across the head of oui short-haired youug men. Wo mean one of those heads that has been scissored down, rasped, tiled, and finishod off with sand paper and rv.

so that the minuest phrenological 'bump' stands out in r-s bold relief as a hill of potatoes. lie (the it travels so loosely, and mixes bis feet up very much like a bashful bachelor learning to skate. No use trying to enjoy a sermon with one of those heads on an exact line between you and the preacher and an unfortunate fly on it essaying desjierately to get across from the uorthwtst to the southeast corner to see a friend." Representing the eighth Congressional District on the Stale Central Democratic Executive Committee, and beiug advised that it was my doty, I do therefore, hereby call upon and reijuest the raej of tin untie tbe said eighth Congress-ions! District ofTen-neaaee, to appoint tbeir ruspeciive delegates to meet in Convention, at Memphis, on Thursday, the 1st day of September next, at 12 o'rioek to nominate a candidate for the Fflrty-secoDd Congress of the l'nited Statas, and I respectfully request that eacb county adopt as a basis, one delegate to every Democratic votes cast for Supreme Court Judges on the 4tb giving also one additional Delegate for every fraction over Son and not under lib votes thus cast. I also recommend and request that the counties of Fayette, Tipton and Shelby, authorize and instruct their delegates to nominate at the same time and place, candidates for Senator am Float sr for sai counties. All friendly papers the District will please oupv.

Trx new food prepared from Sea Mots Fakinb is meeting with wenderful success and wall it may, lor a more delightful dessert tor tha table cam not be imagined, On Saturday morning last we published aspe 'laldispaieh from jKknvCri Hardeman cenrtyV announcing tbe murder of Benton Crisp, a eneeialDeputy Sheriff, or po liceman, by Junes Grsbsm, turner most strocious circumstances From tbe Bolivar Bulletin of Saturday we glean the following particulars of the affair: WHISK V. A.

P. Graham and bla son, James Ora-brm, the murderer, were iu town early vesterday morning, and, aa usual, were hasty to jet uuder tha tnfbanoe of whisk v. Poor Crisp, who was in our era h' i i time, and being on an erraud for tno office, niotV "while on tne street, and withiu short distance of tbe steps loading to the office, Ja nes Graham, who is conducting himselt in a disorderly manner. Mr. Crisp told him that lie "was acting badly," that he "was drunk," and advised him to "go somewhere and lay down and take a fuw hours' sleep," and tiiAt he "would be all right and feel To this kindly advice Graham took uo hoed.

Crisp came to the ofileo, resumed his work, and In a few moment it was mad apparent to all In tbo vicinity that Graham was, to uses oommon phrase, OI THE RAM PA' for, going into I'mUaw'o saioou, he drew bis Knife, and threatened to u-o it upon a colored per-oii present. Hearing the "rumpus," officer Crisp stopped work, took tbo attioi-boaHe key from his coal, anfl, unarmed, save by the majesty of tbe bsw, went down and arrested the offender, and lodged him in the cAUBoew. Withiu an hour tl ir-r old tn-in Graham came to tiie in company with a friend, and the friend iuiportuued Mr. Crisp to release Hid younger Graham. Crisp refused, asaerling Ui.it what he had done at the call oi official duty, am however maoh he dlsltkail to incarcerate a feTlow-bring, he could not take back snythiUK, and expressed hie friendship then and there tor tbe man, who, a lew bonrs afterward, murderod him.

Being present and hearing his assertion, the elder Graham denied it. In an Instant the two men were face to face. BLOWS were struck, and Crisp was victor, although one of his eyes was almost gouged i nt. In ten minutes he was at work About o'clock in, the afternoon, tne Mayor, who had boon tully apprised of all that had transpired, and wishing to avoid further trouble, consented to re-lodfce the younger Graham, under promise that ho would go home, and give no timber trouble tbo old man promisiug that ho would not go near the prison or make any intfrorenca and he vaiue and got the key of the prison ami went down and LUlEKATJiD TUB OPi'KNDBR. the costs all being arranged aatistaclo-rily.

When the door waa unlocked Jim i Jrahain came out. The old man never kept his word, but was on the ground at thu time. Crisj looking from one of the rear window a of the office, saw wJjat was going on, and aieo went down to the place the uiunler occurred. A few ANGRY WORDS. passed between him and the elder Gra ham relative to tbe tlifflculty which had occurred between them, and it was renewed.

At this time Jim Graham was walking up the path, and distant fr im the parties be betug with Mr. Wigcins-about twenty feet. Turning on the in stant, he made at Crisp with A DRAW'S! KNIFE, and stabbed him five times once in tbe back, and the other four iu the region of the heart anil lungs. I he man sank rapidly, and in less than thirty mln utes his soul had gone to the God who gave it, and poor Hent. Crisp was A CORPSE.

After committing the murder, Graham fled, and, after unnecessary delay, was pursued, but to no purpose, as he made good his escape, a party of gen tlemen were close on us heels. The above comprises the substance of the liuXLttiu i report or theeinair. Mnee it came to hand we learn from a gentle man who lelt Holivar yesterday morning, that it was currently reported, and believed, in Bolivar, that Graham had been overtaken in Hatchie Bottom by a squad of his pursuers, and on belot; called upon to surrender refused to do so, and showed light. He was thereupon tired upon and killed. This is only a rumor, but it is probably true.

ANNOUNCEMENT. Jadge W. P. Bend, of Haywood, a Caniii date for Congressional Noainee. To the Voters of the Eighth Congressional District: I have been requested by many friends, too partial, perhaps, In their judgment, but yet influential in their respective couuties, and entitled always to the I ighest consideration, to announce myself a candidate for Congress at tbe ensuing November election.

1 have determined to do so, subject, however, to the National Democratic Convention ot tbe district. I do not consider it necessary or becoming that canvass for the nomination should follow this announcement. I sball, thorcftire, Hu.it quietly at home the decision ef the people as it shall be expressed la tbeir mm proper convention. I trust that 1 am too diffident of my own qualifications; understand too well the responsibilities of the station; and that have too just an afipreoiationof the large abilities and the very high order of statesmanship at a 1 times needful, hut especially now, to the proper discharge of the duties of the office to attempt to forestall public judgment by laboring to manufacture a convention to snit tbe purposes of private ambition. More than ever before, wisdom in council and prudence in action are needed, and I desire, not for my own but for my country's goo-l, that the people shall be permitted, without solicitation on the part of those personally interested, after due deliberation and inquiry, to choose their most available man.

In their decision I will cheerfully submit, without disappointment, should another be preferred in my stead, and with an earnest determination to perform the duties of the office should I be their chblee. In this latter event, it will be my duty and my pleasure to canvass thoroughly the die-trict. And now I wish to aay that in making this announcement 1 am not to be understood as placing myself In opposition to other gentlemen whose names have been mentioned In this connection. Very respectfully, W. B.

BOND. Brownsville, August 8, 1870. THE GRAND JUNCTlOty AFFAIR, A Traa StateMeot of tbe Causal which Lad to the Negro Oltturbaaoea. Our city was startled one day last week with a rumor that a body of two hundred armed negroes were marching on Grand Junction, and that tbe Sheriff of Shelby county and Chief of Police of this city bad been telegraphed to for aid. We immediately telegraphed to Grand Junction to learn the truth oi tbe rumor, and received a reply to the effect that a negro had been whipped to death, and that tbe armed negroes were merely insisting on tbe punishment of tbe perpetrators of the deed.

Tha following, from the Bolivar Bulletin, explains tne whole affair, and puts a different light on It from that given by the dispatch "A few ears ago an Alabama negro named Lewis Miller made his advent into the neighborhood of Grand Junction, and this year was cropping with i olonel ft. Joardan, an acltuowled and recognized Christian gentleman ol over fifty years of age. Three or four weeks ago. Miller's crop having become, th ough his carelessness, foul nil-1 choked wilh weeds, and Mr. having an interest therein, spoke to Miller abont It and told him that it was wrong to neglect so important a duty, and tho negro went to work.

Pretty soon Colonel Jourdan ordered all of his plows to tbe assistance of Miller, and whn the plowmen came into the field he asked who sent them. He was told that Colonel Jourdan did; he became enraged, and Bwore that ho would not strike another lick. He quit wo k. After this, he and Jourdan met at tbe letter's residence, and a trivial difficulty ensued. the negro's conduct became worse and worse, and on last Saturday night a disguised party of unknown men went to Miller's cabin, took biin out in the road a few miles southeast of Grand Junction, and there killed him.

Next morning his body was found, stiff and cold. The friends of the deceased were quick to suspicion Colonel Jourdan, J. T. Kowden and H. J.

Allen, who, on hearing that so grave an accusation was made against them, promptly ox pressed their willingness to submit to arrest and trial, feeiing within themselves, as is no doubt the truth, their innocence. Warr.ints were procured and they were arrested aud conveyed to Grand Junction razaiu -uation. By an early hour Monday morning, the negroes of the neighborhood began to assemble in large numbers, nearly all of them being armed, and threatening a terrible retribution, saying that the accused should he tried there aud no where else. The citizens, prisoners and officers became alarmed, and the Sheriff telegraphed to Bolivar and other points for assistance. As soon as the news reached here excitement ran high, snd scores of good and true men made hasty preparations te leave on the eleven o'clock train; but before that hour came another dispatch informed the public that the matter had been adjusted: as the prisoners hsd been put on trial and all danger of an attempt to lynch them had disappeared.

Iu tho afternoon of the same day the accused gentleman arrived here in charge of the proper officers, and readily gave bond iu the sum of $2500 each, to answer at the next term of the Circuit Court; and until that time arrives, without a breach of the peace by the negroes in the vicinity, so ends the Grand Junction AN INQUIRY HOW IS IT DONE BdUort Appeal I have learned from good authority that there are certain avocations in this city which are liable to a license tax, and yet are running their business without paying the tax. very city Is compelled to impose taxes to defray its necessary expenses, and should entoroe their collection impartially. Why should one party following one kind of business be required to pay a city license, and others following the same business precisely, go along from month to month, and pay tbe city no license whatever. I can hardly suppose there Is any collusion with our city authorities. I refer more particularly to tbe variety theaters.

All of them require tbe attention of the city police to preserve order in them, thereby being tax to the city, yet a part of them pay no city license as required by the Privilege Ordinance. And thase non-i-'ensi-'ax-j ayers need greater number of police as they are notoriously tbe most disorderly. There is something about this I do not understand. Perhaps enr worthy Mayor can explain to the public how this Is? If our municipal license laws are not or cannot oe eniorceu, impartially, it were far better to have them repealed, otherwise the laws are a moc ery. FI.t PLAY.

A. n. l.i ii uen'i Mil L. Mr. Boor's manual of the railroads of the United States for 1870-71, presents complete information concerning the railroads of the United States, and from it we gather the following table of mile age in each of the Southern Stales: 1860.

1S66. 1867. 189. Virginia MM leH 143 North Carolina 1117 SM 1012 1130 Hon Carollua 971 1HU7 1007 1101 Georgia ls20 1420 1548 1652 Florida 2 437 46 Alabama 74S K05 (51 1W1 M6i 898 990 Louisiana )i35 335 315 S75 Texas 807 465 513 583 Kentucky 834 567 65 852 Tennessee -1253 1296 1358 1451 Arkansas 18 38 Si Southern States 91S2 'J-JSl 10126 11-72 From this it appears that there has been an increase of 20-20 miles of road in the Southwestern States during the ten years ending 1869, or a gain of twenty-one per cent. Tbe year lsTU will doubtless show an increase of about 100 miles.

The ratio of mileage of road already constructed to the area is one to sixty-six. Mr. Boor assumes that the construction of railroads in the South will continue till the mileage shall reach three times its present number or 36,000 miles. Georgia surpasses all her Southern sisters in the extent of her railways, and Louisiana stands next to the lowest on tbe list, having only 375 miles. It has very recently come to light, says the Franklin lieviem, contrary to public expectation, that the Nashville and Decatur road ia already, and has been for near two months, in the bands of a receiver.

It seems that in March last a bill was filed by tbe District Attorney of tbe United States in the Circuit Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, to enforce a large claim of the Federal Government for stock and material purchased ust after the war. and, by fiat of Judge Ktnmonds al Chambers in Cincinnati, the Fresidont of the road was required to file bonds in a hundred thousand dollars to account to the Court from hum to term, lor the income and earnings ot the road. And recently the income bondholders filed their bill in chancery, at Nashville, to enforce a mortgage executed in 1860. for the security and payment of $200,000 of their bonds; and application has been made to tho Chancellor for: the possession of the road and its effects, according to the condition ana terms oi saia mortgago. atonday next has been appointed for the argument of the motion The Railroad Company have filed their answer, iu which they undertake, contrary to their olt repeated promises of payment, and in violation of all good faith, to repudiate their contracts Tbey al ledge that the bonds are illegal and void by reason of the ten per cent.

Interest called for on the face of the bonds, snd that tbe act of Assembly which tbey procured to be passed for their own benefit, was unconstitutional. We know nothing about the legal questions involved in the issue, but we do know that the company inaugurated the scheme of issuing these bonds, and, on the credit of them, got a large amount of the people's money. We know, furthermore, that John Marshall, who waa tbe President of the road at the time these bonds were issued, advised it, and hsd no dobut as to their validity and we know. In addition, that he nor those associated with him at tbe time, had any idea of evading or repudiating their honest debts when tbey contracted them. We understand tbe counsel of the bondholders are confident of making the company pay, as they have promised; and the whole thing may soon result in the withdrawal of the management and central of t'je road from the present managers, and lacing the whole concern under bonds or i the hands of the Trustoe or a Receiver the payment of the debts.

however, like the initials on tie old Roman banners, has'a meaning. It represents Saint CroU-ST. being the conventional equivalent of Saint, and 1-8-6-0 standing for the letters C-R-O-I, and so forming, wBh the concluding the word Croix. By placing the trademarks and tha name of the island in juxtaposition with the figures over the letters they are intended to denote, the explanation will be understood B. T.

The election passed off quietly, no disturbances. Five hundred and twenty-nine votes polled st this precinct.

The Democratic candidates for agist rates snd Constables all elected. Henry Burjifttt beats Thomas J. Williams for Clerk of Law Court at Hnmboldt 76 votes." I.AKR COUHTT. Our correspondent, "Robinson Crusoe," (from whom, by the way, we should be pleasod to hear Irequently) sends us the following election news from the new a iituly of Lake. His letter is dated Tlp-tonvilie, August 6, 1870: JCditors A ppeal Being engaged hero In taking the census of this county, and knowing that tbe Api-eai.

Is almost the only paper that is read here from belo I have concluded to send you, as a matter of news, the result of the county election, held August 4. By a recent act of the Legislature, this (Lake county), was sliced off Obion cnunty, and embraces all west of Reelfoot Lake to tbe Mississippi river. This, then, was tho first election in the new county, and although no political question entered into the contest, yet it was a most exciting anW-armly contested race, mostly all tbe candidates for tho different offices being well known and influential citizens of this young but rapidly-growing county. The offices to be filled were Sheriff, County Court Clerk, Circuit Court Clerk, Tax Collector, Trustee and Register, besides magistrates and constables for tbe different districts. For some of tbe offices a great many candidates ran, especially for that of County Court Clerk, Tax Collector and Trustee.

The following are the names of the officers elect: sheriff, Joshua II. Tipton; County Court Clerk, Gunn P. Hines; Circuit Court Clerk, Powhattan Davis; Tax Collector, Henry Brady Trustee, William Snow; Registor, William Keefe. For magistrates in this (second district, Tiptonville) there were elected, Daniel L. Tipton, James R.

Ohlhansen, Perry McElyea, and for constables, Murphy Alexander and C. W. Furlong. The samcessful candidates were mostly elected by small majorities, and although everything passed off quietly, never waa an election battle fought more warmly. As Tiptonville is temporarly, and likely to be tbe county sest, there is every prospect of this becoming a large place.

LI yd aa follows. Before going further, however, we will state that Mr. Lloyd Is a cousin of Captain Charles Morris, of Pacific Place, and la a gentleman of versdty and unblemished honor: He saya that under tbe promise of salvage and the law governing in aucb esses, himself snd son worked for several days trying to find the safe, which was eventually done by diving. Chains were made fast to It, and it was raised from Its position on Friday laat. It was found to be intact.

A guard of two men waa placed over It on Friday night, and on Saturday It waa carried to Charley Morris' place, some miles above, to await tbe owners. On Sunday Captain Patterson arrived, and a contract was entered into by which Mr. Lloyd waa to bring Captain Patterson and tbe safe to Memphis, for which he wss to be paid liberally. On arrival here the aafe waa to be placed in the office of Larry Harm-atad dr' or opened in presence of sll psrties. On arrival hern, however, Captain Patterson asked that the safe might be left all night on board tbe Pat Cleburne, which was assented to.

Yesterday Mr. Lloyd went to Harmstad's office at eleven o'clock the appointed hour but no aafe waa there. He then went to the Pat Cleburne, and, to his surprise, found thsaafe lying on the levee, cut open, and tbe contents gone. He ascertained that Cant. Patterson bad the safe cut open, anl had taken out Its contents snd dried them Sonday evening In the barber shop of tbe Glebnrne.

Lloyd tben hnntetl np Captain who offered bun fifty dollars for his trouble, etc. This was refused, snd Patterson tben offered one hundred dollars, declaring that no salvage could be alkwe-; that Lloyd was not entitled to it. Finding out the kind of man he hail to deal with, Mr. L. accepted1 the one hundred dollars, which was much less tnan his time was worth.

In answer to a question. Captain Patter son said that he bad received about (TOO from the safe. From a gentleman who saw Captain P. in the act of drying the money, we learn that ono large package contained 9-V) notes, while there were several packages of ones and fives. We will further add that Captain P.

stated in the office that tho safe contained several thousand dollars. Captain retiirenco is tully explained. He waa to have left for the wreck last n'glr. on the Alton, bat we don't believe he did so. We heard that be lit ont for Cincinnati or Pittsburg yosleniay, or would do so to-dav.

The City of Cairo, Captain Lnker. will pass down at noon to-dav for Vlcksburg and tbe bends. Charles Hough is chief clerk. Tiio Bismarck will pass down to-day at noon for Vicksburg and New Orleans. Captain Isaac Jones is master.

The rand Lake came in yesterday with a big tow of coal for the Mount Carbon Coal Company. Tho following fearful marine disaster we take from the New Orleans Tinte-i. We hope that should tho New York World give us an editorial upon the subject it will be particular to state that it was a hind wheel that caused the sad calamity, and that tbe defunct Tommy waa racing with a hand-cart: "Yesterday afternoon, while Henry Dtgro, engineer, and Geo. Barnard, pilot of the newly repaired steamship 'Jananese Tommy. chartered for trip to Workhouse harbor and Parish Prison port, by ilia well-known firm of G.

I'. Houghton, commis-alon merchant, doing business at the corner of Lafayette and St. Charles streets, was sitting on tbe npper deck, and while the boat just rounded the corner of Carondelet and Boydras streets, it broke down, a hind wheel having exploded. The engine, two-horse power, was stopped st once, and tbe cargo, consisting of ten prisoners, saved by the wrecking company, Henry Fiske, Superintendent, and Messra. Curtis, Miller, Garlepied and Isabella, who arrived promptly at the scene of tbe disaster.

The steamboat wss put into the Workhouse navy yard for ad ditional repairs, and the passengers transferred by laud." Major Mart Walt appeared unon the streets yesterday, after several days' ill ness. River men would do well to notice the following from tho Collector of Customs: The act of Congross, approved June 29, 1870, increases the Marine hospital tax to tbe sum of lorty cents per month from the 1st instant. The master or owuer ol every vessel employed in the coasting trade, including steamers, canal boats, barges, flats, is required to pay to the survevor of the port, opon evory change of the license of tne vessel, tne said sum or rorty cents per month tor each and every person employed on tho vessel, which sum the master or owner is authorized to collect from tho wages of the persons so employed. "The payment of the tax by the owner or master to'the surveyor will" be made on aworn statement, setting forth the names and number of officers, number of crew, aud full time of employment, "Carefu 1 attention I the collect ion of the tax is r. ry in order that the marine hospital may be ui iiutalned."
