Thanksgiving day was appropriately ob served by a union of the soveral Metho dist, Baptist and Presbyterian churches at St. Luke church. A very good congre gation was present. The opening prayer was offered up by Rev. Mr. Nall, of the Presbyterian church, and the discourse of the day delivered by tho venerablo Dr. Loviuk Pierce, who read from First Cor inthians, and took as the basis of his re marks a verso from the Prophecy of Jere miah—10th chapter and 23d verso. Ho spoke of the'duty of States end Nations at stated periods to return thanks to tho Al mighty, and of the obligation of the people to obey their rulers, when calling them to suspend businoss aud assemble at the house of prayer and praise. It is God speaking through these “powers that bo," and a man might with us much propriety “•pit in the face of Christ" as to disobey the calls of Godly rulers. The people should bo carofnl to select good men for office and then subject themselves to their authority. One great cause of the curses upon tbis country might be traced to incompetent and godless rulers. Tho venerable servant of God spoke in great feebleness, bat his remarks boro tho im press of truth and soberness. Ho was followod in a concluding prayer by Rev. Mr. Kendrick of tho Baptist Church. Appropriate services were Also held at the Episcopal Church, whero a good con gregation was present. Hirer Newt.

About 10 o'clock Thursday night, n col ored man, named Rogers Lino, shot and killed Smith Kelley, colored, about three miles beyond Girard, in Russell county, Ala. There being no witueRscs to tho killing, except the slayer, we give the story as narrated by him. He had beon to Wool- folk's, at work on the river improvements. Was sent up Thursday night with an order to Mr. Dave Dudley for lumber. While there he (Rogers) went to his own homo in the viciuity ; entered, struck a watch, and found tho deceased (Smith Kelley) asleep iu the bed with his (Roger's) wife. In the match striking, tho woman awoke and ran off. Rogers fired at the disturber of his domestic peace without offect, and snapped twice. Kelly seized a pistol which ho had secreted under the hoad of his bod and attempted to return the fire. Rogers seized him, and a hand-to-hand fight followed in the house aud out of doors. Aftor beating Kelly over tho head with hie own pistol, and breaking it to pieoiea, Rogers took Kelly’s pistol from him and shot him twice, ono shot taking effect in tho back of his neck aud another under tho right shoulder blade. Kelly thou started to run and fell a short die- tance from the house in a field of Mr. Koppman, where bo died in a few min utes. He was found yesterday morning lying on his face whore ho fell. Rogers' wife came to this city whero, wo presume, she is now. Rogers camo to Girard yes terday morning and gnvo himself up to Mr. Moreland, a Jnstioe of the Peace. Mr. Morelund, as ueting coroner, with a jury, held an inquest on the body of tho deceased yesterday. The verdict of tho jury whs in accordance with tho above facts. Rogers will uudergo a preliminary ex amination next Monday. Tho body of Kelley was brought to Gi rard for iuteriuent last evening. 11c was an employee at Dudley's steam saw mill in this city. F. W.

Twelve Shot* An unfortunate affair oocurad in Ope lika Thurs lay afternoon, which narrowly missed being a tragedy. The parties were Mr. Wm. Fowler, late of Montgomery, and eldest son, aud Mr. L. E (wards, a farmer, and two sons, Polk aud John. In the morning Edwards, Sr., sold a bole of cotton to Fowler, Sr. Pending the settlement some angry words were used, and Fowler attempted to strike Edwaids with a chair. The dif ficulty boro stopped nutil the afternoon, when Mr. Polk Edwards demanded of Fowler, in his place of business, an apol ogy for abusing bis father. Fowler do cliued, when young Edwards struck him with tho butt of his pistol, inflicting a wound in the face. Willie Fowler, Jr., then drew a pistol and fired at Edwards, the ba'l striking him in the neck. Edwards returned the fire, and wounding his opponent. He was reinforced about this time by his brother John, who opened with a pistol on Fow ler, Rr., as he ran out of the warehouse, and wounding him. Tho Edwards boys were augmented by their father, but his pistol failed to fire. Citizens finally stop ped the difficulty. The three wounded men are not consid ered in a dangerous condition.

This party said, after A Practical Joke. By Telegraph.J The entertainment given by the work ingmen on Thursday night at tho Court House, was ouo of the most enjoyable af fairs ever attended. On entering the hull we found them distributing gifts, in tho wny of offices, to every one in the house, who would accept, after reserving some for the absentees. This over, a professor of “tnvttum in paroo'* proposed to oxhihit some feats iu science. This was objected to by tho presiding officer, for four thut somebody might get hurt, or thut tho building might l>e damaged. The crowd, however, decided by a unanimous voto to let the show proceed. The pro fessor commenced by delivering a talk on tho scienco of government, taxutiuu, po litical economy, Ac., with some remarks on the Public Schools in pure English ; after which ho concluded to exerciso the principal of tho Publia Schools hero iu some kuotty grammatical terms.— Arter spurring him awhile in fun, ho give boiuo experiments iu chemistry by tho generation of a good doal of gas, with which ho nearly suffo cated tho aforesaid Principal. * When iu this exhausted condition, tho Professor, still beiug facetious, (thnugh I think this was carrying the joke too far for safely), commenced pelting tho unfortnuate Prin cipal with leydeu jars, water buckets aud old bools, etc., until the poor follow must have been quite used up, though it was all in fun. This over, the lust act wns just about to bo performed by the Professor, who had inflated his balloon and had tak en his seat in the car, and tho cords wero about to bo cut, a mischievous harbor who had slipped into the ring with his scissors iu bis pocket, in utter disregard of tho in terest of the audience, puuotured the ceru aud broke up the show.

A resolution to elect an exeontive com mittee of two from each branoh of the mechanics and four from the members at large, was adopted, but Done were chosen. Mr. John Appleyard made one of his usual speeohos—this time complaining about our public schools, and personally objecting to the principal and his salary. Wo kuow tho workingmen do not endorso this, nor his remarks in general. Mr. Birher was replying when a motion to adjourn was carried. More merriment was excited at tho gathering than anything else,.
