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.

One Negro Kilted by Another, Near
Girard.
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.

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. Consid
erable excitement for a while.

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
