Tho Augusta Constitutionalist of Thursday Tho Augusta Conslitutiouaiisi oi lnurauay has the following in regard to the reoent hom icide iu that city : A most unfortunate fatal difficulty occurred between Mr. Johu P. Fos ter and Mr. W. It. McDonnald, two respect ed citizens of Augusta, yesterday morning, between 8 and 9 o'clock, in the vicinity of the Lower Market, iu which, we regret to say, the latter lost his life from a pistol fired by the former, and in the progress of which Mr. Foster sustained a severe wound from a pis tol shot in his right thigh, the ball entering just below the groin and passing through the thigh, without, however, indicting other than a flesh wound. The body ot deceased was penetrated by three bell*, two of which enter ed the cavity ot the abdomen, on the right side, and the third the right thigh. Mr. Me- the third wonnd, aud expired almost imm> utoly. From the point where the deceased fell, bis body was removed to an adjacent store, and thence to his fathor’s residence on Ellis street. The difficulty had its origin in a disputo concerning the ownership of a Ig^lSbtered by Mr. Fo»‘ “ weeks t slaughtered by Mr. Foster, some three or four weeks ago, and had been renting in abeyance between tho gentlemen.since that time. The a- ^^ed leaves a sorrow-stricken family of a wJHmd four small children, whose circum stances under this sad event claim universal sympathy. News of *lie Dsf. Victor M.
