August 17.—A special from Austin, Tex., says: Yesterday evening Gov. R06S received a dispatch from J. M. Weston, of Richmond, saying that a fight had occurred between the “Jay Birds” and “Woodpeckers,” rival political fac tions, in which Sheriff Carvey and Deputy Biakeney were killed and several others wounded. The dispatch said that the fighting was still in progress and troops were needed. A dispttch from Capt. Reichardt, of the Houston Light Guards, said Richmond was ia the hands of a mob. Several had been killed, and at 9 p. m. ■ there was great excitement. Gov. Ross ordered the Light Guards of j Houston, under Capt. Reichardt, to go to : Richmond at once, and also telegraphed j orders to the Bonham Grays to be ready to leave at a moment’s notice. “Jay ' Birds” is the name given white democrats ! of Fort Bends, numbering 400. The ! “Wocdoeckers” include negroes and a few whites. The negroes were vastly in | the ascendancy. It is a renewal of the race quarrel. A Houston, Texas, special says: Cap tain Reichardt left here for Rienmond at 12:10 last night with thirty-four men. Two gentlemen who arrived here by the 11:33 train reported that the “Wood peckers” crowd ( negroes; were in an oat i house surrounded by the other faction, j but no more fighting occurred. They con- I firmed the news of the killing of Sheriff Jim Carvey and ex-Sheriff Jake Biakeney. The town is crazed with excitement, women and children being at home, while the men are down town. There is | bat one iight burning in the whole town ; and that is at the hotel. The riot was i precipitated by a. “Jaybird” walking i through the town with his Winchester. He was arrested and put in jail. The righting soon began. The dead sheriff and [ ex sheriff were “Jaybirds.” A young ! mulatto giri was killed by accident. All | was quiet at midnight. Governor Ross is : expected this morning. i St. Lons, Mo., August 17.—Dispatches | have been received by Governor Ross at | Austin, Texas, stating that everything is now quiet at Richmond, but they give'no additional particulars of the fight and add ! no new names to the iist ot casualties. The troops at Brennan and other places have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to move at a moment’s notice. death. Terry sat with his elbows on the ! table.his thumbs below his chin, and re- ; mained in this position, without moving a i muscle, throughout the reading of the de- | cision, until it was apparent it was going ; against them. Justice Field had hardly : read a quarter of his opinion when Mrs. i Terry jumped to her feet, and in a rage said: “Justice Field,” she cried, her face white with passion, ‘-we near that you have been bought.

Purvis, Miss., August 17.—The court tais morning sentenced John L. Sullivan to twelve months imprisonment. Fitz patrick, the referee, pieaded guilty and was fined $200. Purvis, Miss., August 17.—Court did not open till 9 o'clock this morning. Judge Terrell was on hand long before tnat time, and Sullivan was also seated at the bar, showing up with Ciune before hia attorney came to court. He looked as pleasant and unconcerned as usual, although there was a tremble in his eye after the jury was seated, and he glanced over at the men who had found him guilty. The crowd in the court room was small, but it grew larger in a few minutes, for hardly was the court seated when the grand jury filed in. They presented one indictment to be recorded, and died out again. The Sullivan case was then taken up. Judge Calhoun submitted a motion in ar rest of judgment without argument. The papers had been left at the hotel, how ever, and the case went over to Friday. District Attorney Neville called the case for John Fitzpatrick. The district attor ney read the indictment. He then asked: “What say you, guilty or not guilty?” “Guilty,'’ quickly answered Mr. Fitzpat rick. District Attorney Neville then addressed the court, reviewing Mr. Fitzpatrick’s connection with the fight and the circum stances under which he became referee, and closed by saying that he feit satisfied in recommending the accused to the court’s clemency. Captain Fitzpatrick also mads a state ment in his own behalf, and concluded by asking the court to be as lenient as pos sible. The court reserved its decision. The Sullivan matter was taken up again, and Mr. Green read the motion in arrest of judgment. The court overruled the mo tion after reading its contents. Mr. Green then submitted a motion for a new trial, and asked for an immediate decision with out argument from counsel. The follow ing were the grounds of the motion: First—Because the court charged the grand jury a second time, of its own mo tion and without the requasc of the grand jury, and in giving the second charge in the language stated. Second—The court erred in sustaining the demurrers to the defendant's several nieas in abutment. Third—The court erred in overruling the defendant’s challenge for cause of Jurors Landrum and Abner. Fourth—The oourt erred in permitting the cistrict attorney to interrogate the jurors on their views in the presence of the venire as to the facts of the prize fight within their knowledge. Fifth—The court erred in granting each and every one of the instructions given in behalf of the state. Sixth—The court erred in refusing to grant instructions asked for by the defense and in modifying some given. Seventh—The court erred in permitting the district attorney, in his closing argu ment to the jury, to appeal to the pris oner's prejudice and the patriotism of the jarj. Eighth—The court erred in overruling the motion in arrest of judgment. Ninth—The court erred in permitting Witness Hinton to answer the leadiDg questions of the district attorney as to his remarks made by the court. Judge Terrell asked if there was any thing farther in the Sullivan matter. Judge Calhoun asked if the motion for a new trial was overruled. The court replied in the affirmative. After further proceedings Sullivan was sentenced to one year’s imprisonment. FLORIDA POLITICS. His Fatal Duel With Broderick sud Part in the Hill-aharoti Case. j San Francisco, August 17.—Two i events in the remarkable career of the man who encountered a violent death in | California Wednesday, at the hands of j Deputy Marshal Nagle, stand out promi- i nentiy in his history—the Broderick duel j and his connection with the celebrated ! Sharon-Hill litigation. W th one excep- i tion, the Burr-Hamilton duel, probably no i hostile meeting on the field othoaorin this j country created more excitement, or was : more bloody, than that in 1359 between Judge Terry and D. C. Broderick, of Caii- ; fornia, who had come here from New j York ten years before. At one time i Broderick was a fireman in New York, j The affair grew out of a political contro versy. Broderick was at that time United j States Senator from California, while i Terry was chief justice of the supreme ! court of the state. In this lamentable and tragic ease the challenge proceeded from Judge ferry, who, on the Sth of Septem ber, 1859. addressed a letter to Senator Broderick detnmdiog a retraction of cer tain uncomplimentary and insulae; have been paid by the Sharon people.” “Marshal,” said Jnstice Field, somewhat iouder than usual, “remove that woman from this court room. I will deal with her later.” At this Mrs. Terry broke out with a horrible string of oaths. Marshal Franks advanced towards her, bat she cook no no tice of him, and, facing the four jadges, cursed them roundly. Judge Terry, seeing Marshal Franks epproacn his wife, arose to his feet and stood erect. Franks grasped Mrs. Terry by the arm while she was still talking. In an instant Terry cried: “No living man shall touch her. She is my wife, and I will kill the man who lays a hand on her.” With this he dealt Franks a terrible blow with his right fist. Franks was • eent spinning for six or eight feet and finally landed among some chairs. Terry stood for a moment, then Franks and several others rushed on him. Mrs. Terry was quickly hustled out of the room, and 'Terry followed her at once. Mrs. Terry was taken into the back office cf the United States marshal, and had hardly passed within the door when Terry appeared. “I want to get in," bill in the senate, and its opponents claim to be confident of its defeat.

Terry bore Finnegan and D onald to the floor, but they didnotietgo. Fear cr five men twisted his wrist, and at last the knife was taken from him and he was sent into the room where his wife sat.

Jacksonville, Fla., August 17.—Sena tor CHI. several weeks ago, ia a letter published in the Times Union, challenged tnose persons opposing his re-election to meet him in every county of the state and ciipcuss the charges which have been made agairst him by the public press. The Times-Union will pnbltsn to-morrow the acceptance of this challenge by XV. D. Cbipiey, cf Pensacola, chairman of the democratic state oommittee, and a well knewn business man. The letter is as follows: Pensacola, Fla., Angus’ 14,1S39 —Hon. a. Call, \Vjgi3ij2gton, D.

The next morning, however, the parties met in the vicinity of San Francisco unknown to the police. Terry was seconded by Calhoun Benham ana Thomas Hayes, while Broderick was sec onded by JoseDh McKibben, member of congress from California. There were about seventy people ontbe battle-ground, including the principals. One of the sec onds notified the combatant s to take their relative positions. The distance was marked and appeared to an observer mur derously close. More than one man pres ent declared that it was downright mur der to allow men to shoot at each other at so short a distance, ten paces. The prin cipals, however, took their positions. A close observation of the countenances of the two men at that moment reveaied in a striking manner their individual characteristics. Judge Terry’s lips were compressed, his countenance darkly sal- | low, and his whole appearance betrayed j that of a man without rear and regardless ! of the consequences involved in so grave ! a transaction. Senator Broderick could ■ not have been distinguished by a stranger { as a principal. He held earnest cocversa- ! tion with a friend and would occasionally | turn and scan the crowd and rest his eye i upon some recognized countenance. His whole bearing was that of a maa who was j about to meet a great issue and was firmiy 1 prepared for it. The two combatants being divested of bility that the resolution will ever pass.

It is more likeiy that the emperor’s speeches at Strasburg ana Metz will be outspoken warnings to France to cease nourisi iag dreams of revanche. No note of peace was heard in his brief utterance yesterday at the banquet of the First Dragoon Guards, in celebration of the anniversary of the battle of Mars-la-Toar, in which the regiment distinguished itadf by a brilliant charge.

Extent of Business Done in Listed and Un listed Stocks Yesterday, New York, August 17.—The stock market was as duff as usual this morning, and as barren of feature as the preceding davs of the week. There was, boweve Senator Broderick, on being handed a pis tol, anxiously examined it, and at inter vals measured with his eve the ground be tween himself and his adversary.

As a further in- cueemsnt he reminded his outraged and resolute wife and mother of his six chil dren that he had settled $6000 worth of property upon her, and she should not stand in the way of peace and happiness years. This tailing, he sent his children to intercede for him, bat it was of no avail. In Chicago he consulted with ex pert divorce lawyers, but obtained no ray of hope, and when he saw what he had ' firmly believed to be Mrs. Pillow’s adver tisement for a husband it set him wild, and for two days he was not himself.

The czar’s coming .s stiff doubtful. The emperor wiii remain in Berlin from Au gust 25 to September 5, when he will start on a tour to witness maooeuvers. The czar may postpone his visit until retunreg from Copenhagen. Confusion nas arisen from changes in the czar's humors, aad the emperor s programme has been settled irrespective of the czir's programme. The papers ueneraliy approve the con- Adjcuroed.
