I lie devil appears to he at work among the colored people. On Wed nesday last I>aniel Delainar shot and killed Bristow Delamar in his own yard. Bristow was having some ground fenced in for a garden around a house.which lie had rented to an other freed man. Daniel objected io it, and a quarrel ensued. Daniel pro ceeded home ami returned with his gun, which he discharged at Bristow while the latter was standing in his own yard. The entire charge enter ed Bristow's chest, and made a wound large enough to ndinit a man's fist. Bristow died without a struggle. ■Coroner Betnbry summoned a jury of inquest composed of S. M. Blount, Dock Collins, Ivy Collins, Charles Martin, John Martin, Cicero Neal, W. M. Snell. T. J. Jennings, and James Willis, who returned a verdict in ac cordant e with the above statement. It is reported that a re war. I of two hundred dollars has been raised by the colored jieople to secure the ar rest and deliver}' to the Sheriff of Daniel Delamar. Shooting Scrape in the Field. A difficulty occurred one day last week on the plantation of Win. H. Headley between a white mail named Joe Sanders and a negro bv the name of Tom Collier. Both were plowing, and Sanders would plow two rows and leave two rows for the negro, who objected on the ground that it was too much. Arguments were find ley exhausted and the freed man drew his pistol. Whether it went oil' accidentally or not la not known, but was tiying with lwlli hands to cook it. ami it was discharged muzzle up ward. Sanders then pulled out his pistol, and took better aim. The ball went whizzing into the negro’s flesh, and h i found a place on the ground. Sanders remarked, “I’ve got you. have I?” and Tom Colliei being convinced that he had got him, answered affirmatively. Sander cracked his whip, and the plow went on. Tom was soon afterward in search of somebody to extract the lead beneath his skin. COhD-BLOODKD MtHDEK. Linsey Coleman Killed at Abbe ville by John Dozier-SoOO Ill ward. We have been furnished with the details of the murder of Mr. L. C. Coleman by John Dozier, at Abbe ville, Wilcox county, on Monday night, 16th inst A young man named Thomas was in the employ of Mr. Coleman, hew ing raft timber. Ou Monday even ing Dozier abused Thomas, who showed but little disposition to en gage in a difficulty. Some person reported the matter to Linsey Cole man, who went to Dozier and asked him not to injure Thomas, or disable him from work, as Thomas was not disposed to tight. Dozier, in a friend ly manner, laid his hand *on Cole man's shoulder, and remarked that he hail “nothing against him.” After eupi>er Coleman was over at the house of old man Thomas, and was sitting round the fire chatting with those present. The night was very dark and a slow rain falling. Both | doors of the house were closed, and ! no one expecting to be disturlted by- Dozier. About eight o'clock, how ever, a noise was heard at the hack door, and the angry exclamation : “Linsey Coleman, if you or any other man has anything against me, Owl damn you, poke your head out!” Coleman and the old man Thomas, father of the young man before men tioned. arose and went to the door. As the door was opened, Linsey Coleman remarked to Dozier that lie had no ill will for him, but intimated that lie was not afraid of Dozier. At this instance Dozier fired one barrel of his gun, the shot striking Cole man in the arm and leg. Coleman steadied himself by holding to the door, and fired his pistol in the direc tion of the flash made by Dozier’s first shot. Then followed the re|>ort of the other barrel of Dozier's gun. Among others who heard the report of the last shot was Dr. Thus. Mitch ell. who lives one mile and a half this side of Abbeville, lie states that the gun must have contained an extra ordinary load of shut stnl powder, considering the great noise made. At the click of the trigger Coleman dropped to the floor mortally- wound ed. and the old man Thomas fell lie hind him. some of the shot having en tered ids legs. Coleman was lifted on tlie Irsl, when lie sent for some of his friends. A physician soon ar rived. lint found the wounded man in a dying condition. He remained ra tional to the last, and expired bilk ing to his friends. He was shot about eight and lived until two o'clock. Sixty-nine shot were taken from the abdomen, arm and thighs. Linsey Coleman was probably twenty-two years of age. and was the only son of Mr. Kli-di i Coleman, and was unmarried, lie was formerly In business with Mr. J. H. Mann, me • chant at Abbeville. IL* had inany friends in the community, who will use every effort to have Dozier arres ted and brought to trial for the mur der. A reward of five hundred dol lars has already been offered for Do zier. and the Governor will perhaps also oiler an additional reward. Dozier remained about the town until next morning, when he left Some believe lie lias gone to Florida, lie is well Known in Houston atm Dooly counties, and sustains a bad character. Several years ago Dozier had a brother by the name of William who was killed at Tippett's shops, on Ce dar creek, by Jim Clements, who fled from the country after the deoil. An other brother was once confined in the Perry jail for killing a negro, and was released on a promise to serve in the Confederate army. DIED Mrs. Anna E. Snell, wife of Jacob M. Snell and daughter of Mr. Wilson Hem 1 rick. <lied at the residence of her father in ti is count}- on December 18th. 1873. nit., aged 23. She was married on December 3d. 1872 : hence, was the happy wife of her beloved consort, but for the short space of one year and two weeks. Why! oh. why, inscrutable fate, should you take her so early anti so young from those who so loved her, to whom it was so heart-rending to be deprived of? She was the victim ; of that fearful malady, Hemorrhage ! of the lungs, from w hich she suffeted fjr three months previous to her sad i demise. The great patience, moral hope and courage, uncomplaining for bearance, disinterestedness as to re covery further than conjugal duty, in her distressing ami almost sleepless affliction, assure us in the belief that “death had no sting" and “the grave no victory” over her whom we pain fully say is dead, not forever. The writer had the sad and painful pleasure of witnessing her sufferings in many hours of her illness, and an wvperienee of many years fails to pro duce a paralell instance in which so much resignation to paiuful distress and the surroundings, were displayed. While she had all confidence in the medical means and friendly nursings employed in hopes of her recovery, she did not complain or murracr when told that science possessed no power ,o save her. “As in Adam, all died <o in Christ were all made alive.” . While we humbly submit to the will of God. we are too weak to re strain our tears for one so loved. W. M. D. Cochran, Ga., March 16th, 1874. Another Grand Hunt in Irwin County. The citizens living on Deep Creek, in Irwin county*, have been indulging in another grand hunt for the “var mints” in their neighborhood. We have received from Mr. William Hogan a troply of their triumph in the shape of a tinge wild cat’s paw. We judge that he was a monster of his kind. Elbert Paulk, who is conceded to be a “dead shot," has the honor of puttiug an end to the oarler of this pigeator. When last heard from the hunters were in pursuit of a raccoon about the size of a sina'd elephant, but whether they captured him or not we are unable to any. [The following lines were written by a little girl upon the death of her brother, whose obituary recently ap peared in the Dispatch —Editor.] Memory of the Departed. The holy dead! how on their forms Iliac up before our sight. At twilight's calm and pensive hour. Or mid the solemn night. In dreams .ve see the once loved forma, Which low in ca th now sleep. We haste to clasp tli ill in i.ttr And then we wake And often in our sunniest hours. We seetn to hear the time Os those whose voice* from this world Are now forever gone. Pale, moonlight form* will often flit Across the paths we tread, And o’er us comes iu festive hours. The memory of the dead. DIED, On Friday night, February the 6th. 1374, after a short illness, Miss Saliic M. Conner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. I). Conner, iu tlra 19th yeflr of her age. She leaves a large family and friends to mourn her loss. Sixteenth of July, 1873, she was con verted and professed religion and joined the M. E. Church, South, at Pleasant Hill to the Rev. Mr. Corley. Since that time her daily walk has told all around her that she was a Christian. O, many a mournful week hath flown Since n mid our family hand, Death come and stold our lovely one And bore her to the spirit laud. L. C. Weeks have pas«ed by, T said, and vet It only «eems the other day Since round her and iinjr bed we met. With breaking hear:B to weep and pray. J. W. C.

The Macon Telegraph tells this tale ot John Crib, a one-legged Con federate, of Jones county : "lie was a poor man. After lie hail recovered from his wound and for some time after the war lie supported himself by making and mending shoe* : Sul for the last fe •• years he has been farming. He managed to purchase a wooden leg, but it did him no good. He knocked it to pieces, and made a leg which he could use. Without entering into ail . details of his ex perienee in farming, we will give the result in a few words. It must be remembered that he licgan without means and with a wooden leg, and he has hired no hands. He now owns a hundred and thirty acres of land in Twiggs county. He raised corn and potato s enough to do him, and some six or eight bales of cot ton. He has two horses and what farming iinpieiU’-uts ho (Mode, all of which are |*a»d lor also. He is in debt to no one. He does not know what a crop lien is. What he raises is his own, and he is on a footing— despite his wooden leg—than many who started out with the most favor able prosjiects of making fortunes." The Old Couple. They snt in the sun together Till the day was almost done; And then at its close an angel Stepped over the threshold stone. He folded their hands together, He touched their eyelids with balm, And their last beneath floated upward Like the close of a solemn psalm. ; Like a bridal pair they traversed The unseen mystical coad That leads to the beautitu! city Whose builder and maker is God. Perhaps, in that miracle country. They wtll give her lost youth back. And the flowers of a vanished spring-time Shall bloom in the spirit’s track. One draught of the living waters Shall restore the manhood’s prime, And eternal vears shall measure The lore that outlives time. But the shapes they left liehind them. The wrinkles and sfTver hair— Made sacred to ns by kisses The angels imprinted there.

Correspondence llawktxsVTUZ Dibi*itcr Killing .Stock ou Railroads. When we come to consider all the circumstances connected with the killing of stock by these conveyances of public utiiitv, it becomes a matter of surprise that the owners should so recklessly keep their wholesale de nunciation not only uun those irn dhedfc.tely concerned, but every offi cer of the road ; from the common train hand to the President of the same, comes in for a full share of un deserved abuse. Now, this is all wrong. Does not every man of com mon sense know full well, that if for no other reason, the high motive of self preservation alone would prompt any engineer to forego the wonton risk of pinning his engine over an ob stacle likely to end in his own de struction, and endanger the livus of all on board ? But this class of men arc too frequently regarded as a soul less set totally oblivious to the good I of others, and wholly voii of the no i bier attribute's of his species. Yet charity demands for theft full credit, and a lenicut judgment for all short comings in their unenviable ami all imjKirtant positions—wide exjieri ence has fully demonstrated the fact j that they are made of tie best mate rial, else they could not withstand with such amazing firtutwss, the trials to which their vocation necessarily subjects them. But aside from every other consideration, railroad corpora 1 tions are assessed in damages for all | the mischief they do ; and when we hear of taking revenge for running i over a pig, bull yearling or old cow that the buzzards won’t countenance, we * hink a spirit of maligni’v, alto gether foreign to a Christian feeling, underlies a little soul incapable of ap preciating its own vile culpability. Dodge county, Ga.. March, 1874. Accident on North and South Road—The Engineer and Wood I*as*er Killed, and a Fireman Badly Injured [Special to the Herald.] Columbus, March 18, 1874. The Monday morning train, re -1 turning from the terminus, ran into a culvert twenty feet high, seven and a half miles from Columbus. T’.e Culvert had l*een carefully examined bv the officers of the train, when it passed two hours before. The en gine and three cars were precipitated into the culvert. Engineer Bragg Younge was instantly killed, wood j passer Willie Tyler was scalded so i badly that he died next day, and fireman Tom Jones received a severe cut on the head. Conductor F. S. (Irimes was momentarily stunned, but received no injuries. Accident is due to heavy rains.
