Wood and S. M. Bar-nett. Martin Johnson and Lillv Guyton. The town has been crowded with country people in atten-ance'on the criminal court during the entire week.

The principals and witnesses in all the bail cases were summoned to appear on the first day of the term. The jail cases were first taken up, and have occupied the attention of the court up to the present time, Friday; meanwhile the witnesses and principals have been kept in town at a heavy expense to themselves. This certainly is a great hardship, as the crops are needing all the attention they can get We merely state the facts in the case without attempting to blame any one. Just where the fault lays we are not prepared to say. Deputy Sheriffs.

The precise number of deputy sherifis in this county is unkonwn to any one, save the sheriff himself. A good many of these deputies are irresponsible ne groes who go armed with a certificate of appointment and a revolver, un inursaay a seventeen-year-old boy was arrested with both the above named instruments. It is said that these voluntary deputies are in every neighborhood in the county. Just what authority of law exists for this wholesale manufacture of deputy sheriffs we are not informed. Neither is there any apparent necessity for them.

We would be pleased to hear from the sheriff on this subject. Washington Frecinet Mooting. On Saturday last quite a considerable number of the most respectable citizens of Washington precinct met in Henderson's school house for the purpose of selecting delegates to the county convention in September next. W. H.

Vinson presided, W. N. Norwood was secretary. The following delegates were elected: Bailey George, W. X.

Norwood, Jno. McKinney, D. D. Bolton, Jno. Evans and T.

C. Fowler. Alternates: A. D. Gee, Tom Evans, Jim Lott, Sam Morgan, J.

W. Rhodes and S. J. Walker. Delegated uninstructed.

After debate on two-thirds and majority rule, the following amendment of the two-thirds rule was adopted as the choice, of the meeting: If after the first ten ballots no man has received a two-thirds vote, all be dropped except the two highest; if after the twentieth ballot no choice is made, the two-thirds rule shall be dropped and the majority shall elect. Radical Precinct Meeting. On Saturday last the Radicals of the Brenham precinct held a meeting at the colored school house in Camptown to elect delegates to the Black and Tan county convention. About five hundred persons mostly freedmen were present. Matt Parker, colored, was made chairman and Sam Love, colored, secretary.

The meeting was one of the most disorderly ever held in town. It seems the Radical army is divided into two factions, one known as the Hutchinson and Harvin ring and the other the Klaeden and Fricke ring. The Klaeden and Fricke element being in the majority elected their delegates. At the wind up a fight took place between Capt, Jack Lands colored and Sam Love. No serious damage done.

The above is one half of the story of the meeting. At the conclusion of the Lands-Love engagement a general scrimmage ensued, the Klaeden-Fricke men having accomplished their purpose left. During the scrimmage a pistol or two was drawn, benches were broken and sticks freely flourished. The Hutchinson-Harvin men then had a meeting of their own in the same place and also elected a delegation to the convention. The whole proceedings are said to have borne a striking resemblance to Pandemonium.

The number of fights that occurred can not be ascertained with any accuracy. CONGRESSIONAL CONVEN-TlONi BBkiii lHRMrchainHftc iBt'asn-' Grangers' and Planters' Warehouse. We take pleasure in calling attention to the card of Mr. N. Kavanaugh, who continues business at his old stand.

Mr. K. came to this county in 1841 and has been engaged in planting and merchandising ever since. He located in Brenham in 1867. He is so well and favorably known that is unnecessary to say more.

Jail Fight. Adam Sanders, the negro who shot colored policeman Garland, and Jim Gibson, a negro who is in jail on a charge of horse stealing, were on bad terms before they were trapped. On Thursday morning, when they were brought down stairs to hash, Jim attacked Adam, who had just remarked he wished he had kill Garland, and gave him aver-sound drubbing, nearly putting out one of his eyes.

Quashed. In the District court on Tuesday there came on to be heard a certain case in which Mr. Alex. Thomas, the colored attorney from Burton, represented the defendant and County Attorney Schutze the the State. Thomas made a motion to quash the indictment, which motion was sustained by the court.

The incident caused much amusement. The idea of the county attorney's indictment being quashed on motion of a colored attorney is regarded as being supremely rich, and is highly creditable to Mr. Thomas. Mayor's Court. Wednesday.

Sally Harmon, white, keeping a disorderly house near the high bridge, was assessed 25 and trimmings. Minnie Foster, white, a boarder at the I larmon mansion, was assessed at $10 and trimmings for being drunk and disorderly. Neither of the above named parties having a sufficiency of the circulating medium to liquidate their indebtedness to the city, are now enjoying the hospitalities of the bas.tile. Corored Policeman Shot. On Tuesday night about 9 o'clock, Candy Garland, the colored policeman at Camp-town, arrested Adam Sanders, a mulatto and resident of that locality, on the charge of being drunk and disorderly, and started to town with his prisoner; when about half way up town Sanders drew a pistal on Garland and told him to go, that he was not going with him.

Garland then came up town, when policeman McGowen and Swaine went back with him. After they had been there a few minutes Sanders came to the gate and surrendered himself to McGowen. He then sent his wife into the house for his coat; as she returned with the coat Sanders drew a pistol and fired at McGowen, who dropped, the ball taking effect in Candy Garland's neck and coming out under the shoulder blade. His wound is painful but not dangerous. McGowen endeavored to get a shot at Sanders but could not do so on account of some negro women in the yard between him and Sanders.

Sanders jumped the fence and escaped to the woods in the neighborhood. About 1 o'clock in the morning Sanders came in to the jail and surrendered himself. Weekly Cotton Statement. Mr. W.

Nominations B. H. Bassctt nominated and declines Fred Carleton, of Travis put in nomination and elected. An amendment was offered and adopted that the chairmen of the several county executive committees constitute the executive committee. Nominations for congress being in order, JOHN IIANCOCk was placed in nomination by W.

P. Ballinger in a neat speech lauding Him highly and declar ing it to be of the utmost importance to Galveston on account of Hancock's influence with the Federal Government. He be lieved Hancock to be Galveston's only hope. He paid a high compliment to Hon. D.

C. Giddings. He did not present Hancock as a man always with us; not as a man who always acted as we desired, yet, Galveston in her deliberate judgement presents him as the most available and best man to sub serve her interests. Darden, of Colorado, seconded the nomination; Dunn, of Fayette, also favored it. Moore, of Travis, also favored the nomination, at the same time paying a.

high compliment to Hon. Sctli Shepard and eulogizing his ability, which the speaker thought was not equaled by any man of his age in the State. Mr. Crane, of Lavaca, put in nomination Washington county's favorite son, SETH SHEPARD, tne peer 01 or EVLNINU SESSION. The evening session was called to order at 9 p.

The announced that HarrwfCR was the nominee of the convention, The announcement was not received with any enthusiasm. Hancock, upon being introduced made a very egotistical speech, declaring he would poll the largest Democratic vote ever polled in Washington county. The general expression of opinion, so far as our reporters have been able to hear, was one of dissatisfaction at the result. any other man; he did not believe Hancock was the only man who could beat Jones. Hancock was a man he esteemed and revered and in nominating Shepard he did not wish to detract one iota from Hancock, He successfully refuted the statement that Shepard was too young to fill the position of congressman.

Taken altogether his speech was a very happy effort and was vonciferously applauded. Maj. Bassett seconded the nomination in his usual happy style and gave a short review of Mr. Shcpards history. Gordon, of Burleson, a young man who had been a class-mate of Shepard, at Lee University, also, seconcd the nomination paying a high tribute to the worth and ability of Mr.

Shepard. He believed if there was a man in the district who could roll up a substantial Democratic victor that man was Seth Shepard. Two tellers were then op-pointed, Robt. Steward, of Travis, for Hancock and Mr, Rector, of Lee, for Shepard. The FIRST BALLOT.

JIIK hUSH.tl CLOCK lOMr.VSY. Among the new enterprises coming" into our midst we note with pleasuie that of the celebrated Calendar Clock Company, of St. Louis, who iavc mads this city the headquarters of one of its divisitns. We have met with several of their gentlemanly agents and learn that they arc meeting with good success. Mr.

Boyer, of Virginia, is canvassing this county, and from the names called to us, we note that a number of our best citizens are availing themselves of this opportunity of getting good Mr. Massengill, of in Austin county; Mr. Lee, of Waller; Mr Hall, of in Fayette, and Mr. of in Colorado are all having the best success well may it be so when they have so meritorious an article to put before the people as their "Grcat Fashion" clock. This company has been doing business in the different Southern States, and from the way they are represented by the press and the people, we feel it our duty to call the attention of our readers and advise them not to fail to 'give these clocks a thorough examination when opportunity offers.

They sell their Fashion clock from wagons only, and at one price, calling on all and giving them a chance to secure one. A fasnion timepiece ornaments our sanctum, and a more elegant and perfect-finished piece of furniture one could not desire. Besides having a time piece that will last half a century, you secure the best calendar put to a clock. Having been shown the many advantages this clock has over others, we have no hesitancy in endorsing all that has been said in its favor. Died.
