On last Saturday evening, about
o’eloek, J. M. Kallorb, son of May
Kalloch, of San Francisco, entered
the business oilier of the San Fran
ciaeo Chronicle, and as Mr. Charle
DeYoung was leaning over the conn
ter talking to some gentlemen, drew
a pistol and tired four shots at De
Young, one of which lodged at the
base of the brain, killing him in a few
moments. Kalloch was arrested and
taken to jail. lie claimed that Di
Young was the instigator of a pauq
let denouncing his father's character.
He was very cool and collected wlir
arrested, but refused to be interview
ed. His case will be called
Thursday. The press of the city hit
fcrly denounce the iminler, and say
that while DeYoung was not blame
less in his conduct throughout thi
quarrel, his assassination was cow
irdly and unjustifiable. I'uhlic sen

the general opinion is that it is li
the city was rid of them.
“Almost a serious” fracas occur re
on the floor of llie Senate in Wash
ington last Friday, between Senator
Ben Hill and a Mr. Salcido, Wash
ington corresponden of the Baltirnor
American. Sateldo had furnished
his paper with the statement that Mr
Hill had, through hi, attorney, at
tempted to compromise the Ifayiuonfl
■nit by an offer of money ami inti
mated that the proceeding was an ac
knowledgmciit of llie Senator's guilt
During the session of Friday Sateldo
appeared on the floor of the Senate,
when Mr. Ilill angrily approached
him and shook his fist in his fare, de
nouncing lii in at the same time a, a
scoundrel. Sateldo replied by call
ing the Senator a coward and invit
ing him lo accompany him outside of
the Chamber, which the Senator very
properly refused to do, and tin ning,
regained his seat. The Star that even
ing published an authorized denial of
the Statement by Sateldo lo his pa
per, that Mr. Ilill was seeking a com
promise with the Raymond woman.
Mr. Hill denounces Sateldo'* ctnle-
mnjrt as an infamous lie, and states
Uut he would consider any proposi

The Radical Stale Convention ad
tniirned ye-teiday, after u three day'*
tor my session. Mutiny agaiu-t llie
chile* was manifested at an early
lagr, and solemnly, in convention
isscinbled, llie negroes have severed
the shackles that riveted them lo
their while leaders. Resolutions, de
manding the honors and emolument*
fiire a* three to one ill favor ot
the colored race, were passed. They
sleeted a Slate Central Committee
if Hveiity-livu colored and eight
*i bite men, with a young negro nnm-
[■•I Hedger, of Alliens, ns chairman.
Of tlie twenty-two delegates to the
Chicago convention thirteen are col
ored and nine while. Il is reported
that nine are for 4• rant, eight for
Klaiuc, and live for .Sherman. The
delegates were not instructed. J. E.
Bryant, late ehairnmii of the execu
tive committee, was left out in the
old. Republicans ns well ns Repub-
ics, are ungrateful. Bryant ha-
ivorked faithfully for his party, and
leserveil better treatment. lint a,
nine-tenths of the party are uegroe*,
if is but just Hint they should run the
machine. It is their party, mid they
-lion 1*1 lie permitted to manage it.—
if it were their design to build up a
imwerfiil and sucressfiil party Un
wisdom of their course might lie
questioned, as they are hopelessly in
the minority in the Slate. They have
exercised a right—the right of polit
ical Htiicidi'. As a race they are nol
apable of self-government, and as
they have slaughtered their leaders,
they will he hereafter a helpless, dis
organized tiioh. A w hile man, iV.gn-
izanl of the proceedings of the talc
-•invention, that nil! co-operate with
them, will not have sufficient self-re
spect to lie respected by others. It i
a pity for llie negro that lie is dispos
ed to draw the color line ami set it|
for himself. His ambition exceed)
his judgment.
Noiv that the organized Uepuhli
can party of Georgia is dying, will
ive hare hilt one party ? It will he
well for the Ifeinocratie parly to
duct their primary, district and Slate
conventions ivitli the utmost fairnc
that there may he no well-grounded
cause for complaint. Xojnst ground
should he permitted for ludepeu-
denfism, or the organization of an
independent party. Practically, w<
have hut one political party in t.cor
gi o, and that party must deal eq
and exact justice to all member*, and
bring forward llie best men, or I her
will be opposition.
Now wbat I slatted lo say in llie
beginning was, that the death of the
Radical parly in Georgia may ulli-
•■lately lead to the existence of two
panics controlled hv w hile mrii, and
the colored vote will lie sought after
by each parly. For the material
prosperity of our State nothing bet
ter could happen. II. i* md the in-
leicst of either race llml, politically
or otherwise, they -Imiil.l lie ariaced
against each other. Il i- apparently
unfortunate tor our colored people
that they have barred the door iigain't
their while friends, but a* il will b ail
to llie lifter failure and disinteg
of their party, it will result in
advantage. They have been ini led
and used as mere tools b> their n bit
leaders until they have rebelled, and
rightfully They have di-eor
(he wrong lliat has been perpeli
against them and now a-, mini a*
learn that they are ineapald

which had recently been enacted neur
that city. On Friday otm Perry
Scroggins, an eccentric nml moody
uinii, shot and mortally ivoumlcd
Rainey Chastain, a peaceful and or-
lerly citizen of the county. The
cause of the killing was supposed lo
he an old grudge that Scroggins held
ainst Chastain. The news of the
killing being brought to town, the
deputy sherifl, accompanied by two
of the citizens, went out in search of
Scroggins, whom they found by the
road side. He had a loaded £nn
which be presented anil made llieni
keep at a peaceful ilislunce, while lie
told them that he w ould never he ta
ken alive. The posse not considering
themselves strong enough Intake him
returned to town, and llie slierilf,
ivitli a posse of six, set out on Satur-
lay morning in search of Scrogging.
Ile had made no cflort to escape, lint
had merely wandered up nml down
the various public roads of the coun
ty, freely conversing with any one lie
met, and admitting that he killed
C'luistaiu. The sherifl'and posse were
not long in finding him, and ordered
him to surrender. Ilis reply was a
shot, which killed a mule, but did no
oilier damage. Scrogging retreated
under the cover of a fence, and his
pursuers to a thicket, from where a
desultory tire was kept up for awhile.
At length Sernggins sprang from be
hind the fence, and charged the par
ty in the woods, who tired upon him,
inflicting four wounds, two in the
hody and I wo in the head, from
which lie died almost instantly. He
was brought to Thomnsvillc where
large crowds visited his remains.-
The dreadful double tragedy, and
Scroggins’ determined defiance of
law, and wonderful pluck in resist
ing Ids pursuers, was (lie tlicmc of
conversation throughout the town.
During the winter scasou just pass

At the meeting of the Reading t’lul
ill l-ccslitirg, on the 23d i list - Mr. it.
J. Warren was to recite “Exile of
Erin.” When his name was called
lie arose with apparent agitation ami
evident tremor and stated tiial lie had
purposely evaded the real purpose of
his mind. That |the course he was
alioiit lo pursue would he far dill'er-
ent from that wliieli was iiulicipaled
nr expected, and that the paper lie
held in.liis hand would explain it
self. lie then read the following.ainid
llie breathless stillness of the room:
Ladies and Genti.f.mfn :—The pa
per I am about to read will surprise
you. You may regard it a* the wild,
I'Utbles* Utterances of a inadiiiaii who
is reveling in tin- spasm anil iuloxira-
lion of unbridled wretchedness.
I only n*k that you he patient nml
hear me lo the end.
I have determined here, in llie pres
ence of Ihcse soeial and nilicli loved
friends, lo put an end lo a life which
has brcii prolonged only to give pain
and trouble.
My existence has been a failure.
My year* l have wasted with all the
prodigality of a spendthrift.
Tlie calm quiet surface of a lake te-
veals not IlitM-itggcil i-litlsnml ghastly
ehasllls Unit lie buried in it* bosom,
ami thus lias a life of frivolity eom-eal-
il tiie cankering and corroding cares
that prey upon me.
I have sown to the wind—1 have
reaped the whirlwind.
No spring will renew llie faded
vegetation ol a blighted, withered
ticiirt. 'Tlie harp ol'feeling ami all'ee-
tion hung* mule and silent in the hall
of memory, and
••’flic past is in llie eternal |
Shall I continue to grope, like Ho
mer’s sightless Cyclops, around llie
gloomy walls of my cold anil icy
care? Shall I remain in a descried
haiii|iict hall w hen the lights were
extinguished and the garlands ar<
blighted anil dead? Shall 1 wail
watch and hope for the coming sun
shine while 1 linger amid the dcc|
dark shadows of eternal gloom ?
Shall 1 oil! shall I ?
Kite lias been “false a* the light on
glory's plume," Death in its silent
and impressive eloquence is truth in
ils last analysis.
I have been like n lice (hat sips hon
ey from one flower and then passes
on to allot her: lint the honey has
turned to poison, and a fatal thorn
lias lurked beneath the petals ol tin*
flower.
Yes, in one brief hour I slinll have
ended a life that is useless, profitless
and painful.
The language of the world on this
extraordinary and inauspicious event
ean never penetrate the cold aurieii-
1 ii in of death. The censure of man
kind must fall harmlessly upon the
ear which pulsates no longer. Its
praise or its blame cannot alluct the
eye that beams no more forever.
Death, the night of rest that comes
after toils and struggles of a weary
ilny. Death, the sweet impressive
calm that follows when the storm has
abated. Dentil an Ojiintc that softens,
soothes and tranqniliz.es when the fit
ful fever of life runs high and tlie
throbbing heart bents on and on.
I harbor no ill will, no unkind feel
ing for n creature on earth. I have
been more sinning than sinned
against, I, and I only, am responsible
for whatever of evil betides me.
I have wasted and squandered the
precious hours of n brief existence.
Onward, like a tcnaullcss ship,
have drifted, drifted, drifted, until
the icebergs nml frozen sun arc around
me nml the laud ol the spring and
tlie song of the wliipporwill are far,
far behind me.
Never more can I regain the bright
sunny shores from which I have wan
dered, never more ean 1 linger and
revel amid the green pastures anil lie-
side the slill waters of the long ago
when “my downy cheeks were in
their lilonm.” They are gone, gone,
gone, and why should I tarry.
I .allies and gentlemen, I have I wire
slaleil mid I again repeal, I am alioiit
hi end a useless, fruilless, painful
life ; and, while all I have staled i*
literally true, In prevent any pnssi
Idiily of iiiisapprelieiiHioii, I will oh-
serve in enniTiision that il is not mi
own tile I am going to end lull, the life
ofn wicked and nefarious Ilea wliieli
I hold boliveen my lliiiuili and linger.
