On Tuciilay Uioro hrrived in this city n
party of "movers con Ming of two families
one named Tollo nnd llm other Clayton.
Of tho former tbero was th'i hoad of the
family. Mr. Johnathan Tollo, hts wife, a
daughter aged fourteen yoa, nnd two
sons. Of the Cluytoni, thero was father,
mother nnd dangblcr, tho bitter aged
twelve yoirs. Tho pty woro on their
way to II lakmati county, Tonnossee, und
Intondnt going from Cairo to l'iducah by

camped on tbo levee, npp 'litn the "Little
Kontuckir.n" saloon.
As will bo romemb 'rod Ity rur roadors
tboro w.u n heavy storm on TuosJay
night, and during tho storm Mrs. Tollo

bo ooul 1 to mttiu them comfortable until
thu arrival ot the boat. The women r.e
ooptod IhooHi-r and woro conducted li tbo
I.tm.v: KEXTl'i KIAIJ SALOON.
They woro shown into.-, tide room, nnd
tho most corleom trcnltumit accowled
tboni. They w.'re olI'.irM wbtsky, 'indy,
etc., nnd shortly afiir a man r.r.stforing
tho dltcriptiou of J. K. lVrks, piopnetor
of tho den, came into the, room and r.sked
the girl.i to gt wi:h him to a pUro near
by whero they could gat . tome warm

ing prevailed on flsiually ooutonted to
go. They started and wro followed by
a inir.ll troy, a brother ut Mif Tolle's, and
when outside tho door Farts gavo llm lad

ci to their whercHb mts. l'crk did not
roluru, and tbii woman baooming tbor
oaghly alarmed spnt fully two hoiirl,
ploiling through rain and mud In search,
of their children, but could not rind them.
Half craned with fonr for tho saioty
of their daughlers they rturnwl to tho
wagons to nr ue thoir husbandi, who
all this tiuin w ro unconscious ot what
wai going on.
i'robably three hours aftr leaving tho
stloon, .Miss Tollo,

to tho wagon in n lorrlble plight, Hor
clothing was torn, wot and covered with
mud; and sbo told a tiek ining utory of
what had oceuvod after tboy loft tbo sn-

of the siloon nnd reachol the sidowalk
thuv wero .joined by another man, and
woro taken, sho c mid not toll whore.
Shortly lifter Ios.vIng tbo siluon thoy
wanted to go back, but that ono of tho
mon I I'urks) sworo that if tl.ny did not
go on ho would; "cut their tbroits."
Shortly l.fior tho other girl, Miss Clayton,
after getting away from Harks and Ids ac
complice, succeeded In llnding hor way to
the wagon. Him was covered with mud
nnd horcblhing was torn to shraadi. Sho
nttomp'ed to tell whit had occurred, but
was so frightened nnd excited that not

avonuo, whon sho returned to thu WRgon
Inuring her ecroams hurried to tbo spot,
but were unable at tho time to nseortuln
just what had occurred, tho wholo party
of women being so excited to bu una
ble to toll thorn.
AVhun they bocamo inoro culm, tbo girls
thl thoir mothers' what had happonod,
that I'urks nnd Tom Jllitck, tlio umn who
jolnod them after coming out of tho saloon,
had terribly maltreated them had used
tho moit obicono languago, and finally'
attempted to vioiato tbuir persons, and as
to tho younger of tho girls, Miu Clayton,
hor injurioi woro so apparent as to leave
no doubt of tho truthfulnoss of hor
story.
IS TlIK MORNINfl,
tbo nows of what ha t taken placo bocom-

men congregated In front of tbo "I.itllo

Hut, doublleM knowing something of

Cuno, I i.t April M, 1871
Mil. Hun oil : I feel tho necfttity o,f
trfiiiblini: vour i:iceful columns otico
moro, for the purpose of reprimanding
toltlsb nnd ignnorant man that proposes
to run for alderman of the first ward.
Ho -ms to Mku my littlo epntln of
the 12th nt quite an olfenso. It has drawn
the g'inlltmun out ; but only in personal
itiet ; nnd In hit attempt to smooth up his
own bad character lie com plain, of mine,
asserting that I man h.ibituafjlrunkard
i This complaint I attribute Ui tho fact that
I do not purcnusi any of his bad whisky
iir ho don't dl anvtuing n!sa ; and that
is ono of my reaon for opptng him as a
I candidate fur the l'irst ward. Ho is ad
dk'tod to bad habitt, nnd Ihinka ff hn
could got into tho council ho could g(t
tho liquor license reduced to the old ifg
urc, snd take out his licene n'ijit yeor tf
rontinu'S to i-eil bad whi'ky. Tiat would
bo tho ovtent of hi.) legislation -to try
and pats an ordinance that would allow
him to sell uhoap whisky on a cheaj
seale. Thil would allow him to keep his
ritii' about him. f that he could st'ir.d on
thu ofltsido and act tho part of n geiitlo-
nan whllo bi lisn'd performed his wi.hes.
Mr. Hditor, eoiinoun tense lm taught
mc, drunk or sober (though Hiil uocute
inn ol niivcr biim .ober lo fast m bab-
lot lutulliirnntly.uud tor an intulltKut and'
worthy man reicardluta of tint or color.
friond or foe.
Hill accuica mo of being a porionol on
einy of bis, nnd on that ground lie -ajs I
oppose him; but that don't control my vote
nor iulluenoo it. Hut Hill says I can t
control ono voto, nnd that 1 havn't any
influunce. That may bo pmsible, but thero
is ono thing that is impo'sible, and that is
to prevent mo from thinking that a.inan
should not do hlmtelt Injustice by ;nak
ing councilman nutof bad mnlnrlal, whlto
or black. Hill snya ho would advi?o Col
Wood to close uji nil tho saloon? on elec
lion day or else I will not bo ublo to get
to tho polls to work ngnliitt him. It
truo that 1 nromlsod myself ni much ns
thrcs weeks a jo thnt I would not tsko any
part personally In tho election; though I
supposo if .Mr. Scott could persuade ma to
go down to his saloon on election day nnd
slip in tho buck way to purchase somo of
his bad whisky ho would not refine to sell
It to mo, regardless of Col. AVood's order.
And ngaln 1 say to AVilly, that bo bad
bottor bo on tho lookout, or Col. Wood
or some other of Iho authorities will' :
his shebang, und Josvo it closed.
Tho gentleman says I havn't any ro-
fjiect for socloty, nnd " that's what s tho
muttor with tho purp." Ho alto spoaks
of my "up. and downs in this world."
1
understand tho gentlomart to havo refer
onco to my past ulllicllons j and if 1,0, that
is u vory woak argument. 1'erlmps ho
has roforonce to my ups nnd downs in so
ciety ; nnd if to, 1 will ssy to him that h's
standing It too weak to olovato mo nny
in society, nnd his lovol ii too low for mo
to go down to.
Hill also speak of bin condescension in
nnsworing my card. Now, it tho world
know his condosconslon ns I do, they
would know nothing loo low nnd dirty
for Bill to condescend to. I reckon Hill
will not glvoni(i nny moro of bis condes
cension, ns woll ns no moro ups and
downs.
Now, Mr. IMitor,! don't dony tho right
of this largo community of colorod voters
to throe or four representation In our
municipal nllVdrs, but where l the mato
rial '.' Bring mo tho mttoriil and 1 will
show you tho ropresuntutivos, but don't
bring mo inch imttorlal as Hill Scott?
Now,gonllomon,I think that the iimtorlal
tho fathers of tho city should bo manu
factured out of should bond to tho Hiir-
roundings and clrcumstaneos of thu city
Improvements nnd the Interest and eleva
tion ot the community at largo funs as
woll as friends. 'I hat la what wo should
legislate for tho Intorest of tbo whole
community, black and while, friond mid
foe.
AVo idinuhl not bo solilsh, as my friond
Hill would bound only legislate on tho
liquor Uconsn. I regret that a groat many
of our ignorant colored Tutors, who havo
the right to voto and don't know how to
uso It, and don t (iiostlnn the merits or a
man nor llnd out tho merits and quallllca
lions of him, but think as Hill thinks, and
