A friend of ours in this place says: “Little things sometimes make large diversions. The rise in the price of lumber, at Rock-dale, has caused the bulk ol cotton, raised in this section, to seek a mart a Austin.”— Salado News Letter. We are glad to record the fact, and we have high hopes of Hill in consequence—that there will be abeut three times as much whe.at planted in this county this year as was planted last year.— Hill County Record. Mrs. Pidcoke, found guilty of poisontDg her husdand in Hood county, has appealed. — Waco Advance. If the. Advance would restrict itself to definite knowledge it would entitle itself to more ere-dence when it did spoak. The above case has not even been tried, and will not wntil Novem-ber.— Gatesville Sun. The item in the Advance was clipped Irorn some paper printed above Waco, but by accident not credited. The Advance depends upon those papers for such news. Another paragrrph about the sen-tence of Mrs. Pidcoke has appear-ed in this paper credited to the Cleburne Chronicle. We have since learned that the information is incorrect. A cotton compress in Austin is said to be a fixed fact. “H. V. R.,” the republican cor-respondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, a republican news-paper, a shrewd, sharp, observing man, is here writing up Alabama affairs. After spending some-time in North Alaboma, he writes to that paper as follows : “The white republicans of North Ala-bama are sadly demoralized. Thousands of them will vote the straight democratic ticket, while other thousands will refrain from voting at all. On the other handj the white democratic vote will come to the polls in a solid col-limn. The civil rights issue will bring them out as no other issue ever has. To my mind there is no doubt whtever but that the democrats will carry the State.”- Ex. Before the elections the Gov-evnors of the United States, stood 22 republicans and 15 dem-ocrats. Arkansas has sinco made it 21 republicans and 16 demo-erats. Alabama will soon make her change and it will then stand 20 to 17. IfNew York does her share in the good work, Tilden will make the figures 19 to 18. If the next Congress is not utterly lost to all decency, McEnery will be given the place to which he was elected by the people of Lou-isiana, and then the scales will go up with tho radicals, putting the ratio, 18 republicans to 19 democrats. The chances are fair for the realization ot these fig- At Pulaski, Tennessee, Henry Atkinson, colored, stabbed and in-stantJy killed Lucius D. Sultlo, white, aged 38 years. The diffi-cult}’ originated about a suit now pending in court relative to a corn and cotton crop. Atkinson was arrested. But we hear not of the concurrent jurisdiction of the United States in bringing him to trial. Why is Attorney General Williams silent? TELEGRAPHIC. [Associated Press Dispatches.] [JpociRl' to Waco Advance.] Midnight Dispatches. New ORleans. Oct. 18.—There will probably be a meeting of the Confer-ence Committee to-morrow, the con-servatives having to-day sent a note to the republicans inviting a conference. The twenty days allowed for .creating vacancies on the returning board ex-pired to-day. The conservatives are ready with their men to fill the two vacancies that are promised. Govern-or Kellogg lias not as yet been able to obtain the required resignations, but four members of the returning board have agreed to resign, provided Wells will resign. Wells is absent. The date of his return is uncertain. Later. I.ongstreet, Casenove, ;K‘‘nner and Anderson lour members of the return-iag board have, it Is understood de-dared to Governor Kellogg their wil-lingbess to resign if J. Madson Wells, president ot the hoard, will hand in his resignation. Wells has been telegraph-ed to by Kellogg. This action if adhered to, willjenable the Governor to carry out the confer-ehce agreement regarding the return ing board, giving the 'conservatives two members, Clinton, La., Oct. 18.—A feud be-tiveen tho Breaux Weber and Gain re-publican factions culminated to-day in an attempt between Bayou Sarah and Jackson, La., to assassinate John Gam independent republican candidate for Senate, by parties unknown. Gain was wounded but not danger-ously. Noon Difspgtcliesi. London, Oct. 19.—The Fiji Islands are unconditionaly_ceded to Great Brit-ain. Paris, Oct. 19.—Full returns of (he election yester day for vacancy in the Assembly show that Elgraude, a Bona-partist, leads the polls at Pos de Ealais but there (.being no majority, a new election ’was ordered. In the Alpes Muritimes two Republicans were elect-ed. MARKETS!. Kiot Among; the Negroes. New Orleans, Oct. 19.—A dispatch from Jackson Lai, says : At a mass meeting of the colored people helu at this place on the 17th and called at the instigation of Werser. Breaux and Law a riot took place about 5 o’clock be-tween the Breaux and Gay men in i which four colored men were shot—| three probably fatally. In the morn- [ ing the Hon. John Gay was waylaid i and shot, as rumor says, to prevent] him from speaking to the meeting, i Some of the Breaux orators assailed] Mr Gay. Hence the riot. Tlie colored j people in squads of ten and twelve are patrolling (he streets on horseback with guns. The U. S. Supervisor Gapt. F. H. Jinks has been consulted and it is probable lie will call U. S. troops. Great excitement - prevails, Weber and Breaux have just arrived from Bayou Sara and brought Win- Chester rifles to furnish the rioters. New York, Oct. 19.—The Herald’s Washington special says: The Ger-man government lias positively dis-claimed the intention of purchasing a. naval station in Costa Rica, with the j assurance that the German government; not only respects the Monroe doctrine but most cordially approves it- And ; like the United States, whose ships of war traverse every sea, Germany has ] no heed of naval stations in distant countries. The Herald’s New Orleans special says; that in an interview with the conservative leaders, including General Ogden, Commander of the White League, all agreed that there would be no further bloodshed in the city. They believe many negroes will ab-sent themselves from the polls on elec-tion day and that the State will go democratic by six or eight thousand majority. No trouble is anticipated by them except in the .parishes about Sllerveport, Monroe, and Baton Rouge Some republicans concede that the State will go democratic. The World’s Special lrom^Tuscaloo-sa, Ala., announces the arrival of a j company of the 2d U. S. Infantry. One j officer expressed surprise to find the! city as quiet as a New England village, j The troops met a hearty welcome. Boston, Oct., 19.—Father Gleason in meeting applauds capt. Jack and his Modocs, and denounces Meecham as a political adventurer mistled .captain Jack regarding the Federal Govern-ment, Cable despatches state that the charge against Yon Arnim has dwindled down to insignificance,, only Prince Bimarck fears spread of the scandal.

Kinally, and lo C'ouclndei Matters have been so far advanced now at the last Gift concert of the Public Library that Gov. Bramlette is enabled to state posi* lively, and unmistakably, that the final drawing will takh place on the 30th day of next November. Therefore those who wish to participate in the greatest gift concert ever offered to the public, in this or t»ny other country, should make immediate ar-rangement to be ready for the great drawing. Any delay now will Imperil the ticket-hold-er, for, whatever may bo said by outsiders, we; cun assure our readers that we know whereof we speak when we say advisedly that the drawing will come off on the day indica-ted. For tickets apply at Ragland’s jewelry store. E. C. Billings, who may be re-membered as having written “dear Kellogg” that Chandler was doing service secood only to At-torney General Williams, has been again unearthed. In one of his last letters dated Willard’s Hotel, Washmton, Dee. 3,1873, he says! Dear Governor!—I arrived here duly on Monday morning at 6, having been detained at Harris-burg for twelve hours, that tune however, I Improved with Wayne MacVeagh, my old friend and classmate. I had written to him and he has taken, and does take a great interest in the Louisiana case, and done much to get Cam-eron who is his father-in-law, to take such a decided stand for us. This letter having lately come to the eye of MacVeagh among the recent publications, he ap-pears in print as follows: I suppose, Mr. Billings con-founded, perhaps not unnaturally my personal in him as a friend and class-mate at Yale with his professional interest in the cause of his clients in Louisiana; for ev-erybody who knows anything of my views on the latter subject, but especially Gen- Cameron, with whom I had standing difference of opinion about it, knows I was wholly unable, after an examinn-tion ol the facts, to see that Judge Duroll’s order, had any validity, or that Pres dent Grant was jus-tified in-installing and upholding the Kellogg Government. Attorney General Williams is making a first class “outrage” out of the Montague affair. From the elections it seems that tho “outrage” business did not take. The Address of the Uuion Re-publican Congressional Commit-tee says that under “Democratic statesmanship,” “our intercourse with powers weaker than our-selves was spirited enough. We bullied Austria out of a Hunga-rian refugee. We despoiled Mex-ico ot a portion of her territory, &e.;” the moral . of which is to show that “our foreign policy was as ignoble as our homo poli-cy was shameless.” Of course such ■ slanders upon America in the Lands of the democrats are apparent to those who know what the democratic parties did for the country. But granting it all for argument,does it not seem that under radical rule that crip-pled Spain bullies America an (that Mexico is about to take back j a .part of Texas ?
