At llfleen rninttle* lreforc eight o'clock

of a hundred or more, were startled by
two sharp reports front a pistol which pro

TIIE OUIGIN OF TflK PIFKICULTV.
Our reporter visited the room of the
wounded inau shortly after the occurrence
mid b arned from liim his version of the
affair. Mr. Kstlin. who was formerly a
heavy cotton broker in Mew Orleans,
came to this city three weeks ago He
paid he was Hist introduced toCapt Dix a
lew days ago, and (hut on one occasion
I ('apt* Dix Insulted him with some otlen
! Mveicmnik while they were playing a
game of dominoes, and that, meeting him
Huhserjiieiitly on CbAnge, ('apt Dix apol
ogiv**d for ti e insult which he (Kstlin) ac
cepted as satisfactory.
Mr 1. 1 1 im HHMt*ils that lie it ulleriy at u
I* * to account lor this attempt to take his
life. He iys that about one half an hour
before the attack ('apt. Dix asked him to
take a drink, which lie declined.
It seems from the concurrent testimony
ol several byst mdcrsfhatCapt. Dix walked
up to Mr Kstlin and without a word of
explanation or warning, discharged his
pistol tw ice Mr Kstlin fell at the first
shot, and the fei oud shot was fired after
ho had fell.
Cupt. Dix w usiakcu to the Four Courts,
where he i still in custody, lie appear
ed laboring under a strong mental agita
lion In justification of his conduct the
captain said that Kstlin had been follow
ing him several days for the purpose of
taking his life, and that friends had
warned him to he on his guard He says
that Kstlin was heavily armed at the
time ot the shooting
(’apt. Dix is known in this community
ni i tjiiict, peaceable citizen He lias a
large circle of friends among our best citi
zens, who say ho is a man of the mo t
generous impulses aud kindly disposition
uni that so far as they* know he never be-i
r>-u- nungi'il in u i|uarrel in hi.s life. Tliejl
ullirin llml lie is inespnhle of 1111 net of nt
-einpied Hs.ussiuuiion unless lie beliuveil
liis own life wits in jeopardy.
On the other Imnil Mr Ksllin has the
npiieurnnee of a tjuiet. well-bled penile
uiau, and nothing h..s thus tar been dis
c'losnl prejudicial to his eliaracter.
There is something about the alfair
which is apparently inexplicabls It docs
'ecui strange, passing strange, that a man
o quiet and pea. t unic as (.'apt Di.x is said
lo be should nil. nipt a deed of cold blood
and assassination and ul the same time im
peril the lives of iuuoceul persons in the
room. Wliut could have been the motive
for tlio act committed last night ? Was
Mr Ka lin seeking his life .' Such a sup
position is. to say the least, improbable,
although truth is sometimes stranger than
fiction, and tho legal investigation of the
facts may vetify tbn tiutb of ihf old adage.
Another theory has been suggested by a
distinguished logsl gentleman of huge ex
petience, who saw Captain l>ix after he
had surrendered himself to the police
force This theory was that t uphiin 1).
was laboring under a monomaniacs! del Li
on which led him to believe that Mr.
l.stlin was hying lo kill him, and that this
not uncommon form of mental hallueiua
lion led him to attempt the lite of his sup
postal deadly enemy
Our importer called at the m m of Mr.
fallen, ul oim o'clock llii' morning, and
lotmd him as comfortable as could he ex
pected in the circumstances. The hall

THE PKEimvm WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success iu business; it is also
conceded, by Hie shrewdest business men that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is de9ired.
THE MONROE ADVERTISER
1 reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it 16, therefore, the best medium of
| communication wiUi Uie planting interests.
; 'V e will be happy at any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchanjs here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties'wbo read
their cards in. The Advertiser. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of ad
other journals in which they are represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
sueccssful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS
No advertisements are admitted which air
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will he
safe in ordering them from any distance. To
onr readers, the fael of its appearance here bar
all the weight of endorsement and authority.
