C. W. Asbury and the Trion brothers had a shooting scrape at Lula Tuesday that came near being serious. The cause of the difficulty between these gentlemen was about something that the Trion brothers bad said about the ladies of tho church, which angered Mr. Asbury. Mr. Asbury struck one of the Trious in the mouth, when the other brother appeared on the scene and made for Asbury. who drew liis 32-calibre pi tol and fired, the shot grazing Mr. Trioa. The parties were separated and the trouble stopped. At Atlanta Friday Judge Mai-sball J. Clarke rendered a decision in the case of E. C. Bruffey, a reporter, who a lew days ago was orrjered to jail for contempt of court, and who was afterward released at the instance of his attorney, Col. X. J. Ham mond, for the purpose of allowing him to make a showing in the oase. Judge Clarke, in his decision, took the ground that Mr. Bruffey, to testify as to which member of the grand iury gave him the intorutattmi that he published, would criminate himself, and could not be required to do so. lie would, in so doing, funush evidence to con. riot himself, as he was equally as guilt y as the member of the grand jury in divulging the secrets of the grand jury room. Mr. Bruffey was therefore discharged. It is said that the grand jury is not st all satis fied with the situation. They have made up their minds to find out who leaked, and will take other steps to get at the bottom of the affair. There is some talk of getting an indictment against Bruffey, but this is met by the questi in as to who the witnesses will be. The man who gave the information would criminate himself if he testified in the ease, and without his testimony it would be a hard matter to locate the man who gave out the information. Athens Banner-Watchman. Corn shuck ing Urna in the South during ala vnry days was looked forward to by the farmer and bis family as one of the big events of the year, and when the runner came around to invite all hands to a corn shucking at John iwnith’s, or Biil Jones it was looked forward to by all who had been invited the same ns we look forward to the coming of a circus, The negroes from different plantations within five miles of John Snath's would starl to the corn shucking soon after they had done their day's wo; k and housed then Stock.

Alter the shucks had been put iu n pen the owner of the corn pile was carried around the bouse on the shoulders of several stal wart negroes, all hallooing at the same tame, and carried in and put at the head of th* table and waited ou by those who ear Tied him on their shoulders. It was a hup py time and the jug of old corn juice played a prominent part in the shucking, but it has all passed aw ay and the farmer who gets his com shucked now has to pay well for it. Blakely Broad Ax: In Miller countv, near Spooners Cross-roads, lives Mr. William Reagan. Ou the morning of Nov. 8, Mr. Reagan carried his cotton to the gin, leaving Joe Reese, a negro in his employ, plowing in oate noar his house. Soon after Mr. Reagan left his home Joe returned to the house and informed Mrs. Reagan that his horse was very sick. When the lady luquired why he did not bring the horse to the house, he replied that the horse was not able to come; whereupon Mrs. Reagan started to the field, and pass ing through the house, saw her husbuiul's knife lyuig on tho tanle, placed it in her pocket, fearing the children might get it during her absence. Proceeding to the field, she was surprised to find the horse quietly feeding. Turning, she said to the negro, who had followed, that the horse did not seem to be sick. He at once Caught and threw her to the ground, but the brave woman managed to gat the knife from her pocket and attempt ed to out the villain’s throat; hut failing in this she stabbed him in tho abdomen, oom peiliug him to loose her before he accom plished his devilish design.

On tho way out he met young Arthur Tinaley, woo also decided to go as Mr. Fryer was equipped with gun and dog, and Arthur dearly loves sport. The day being somewhat gloomy, zr. Fryer concluded to squirrel hunt after having looked after his cattle, and succeeded in killing several. As fast as he would shoot one his dog would have anothor “treed’’ for him. This con tinued until about 4 o’clock, and in the meantime they had been moving farther and farther into the swamp, and at last Mr. Fryer aud the boys realized that they were lost, and that, too, in "Beaver Ruin.” They decided, however, to get out if possible, and m endeavoring to do so they encoun tered thicker cane and deeper mud and water, and just at dark they reach ed a small island, wet and cold. After repeated efforts they started a tiro, and re, inained thore until morning. Mr. Fryer’s friends knew that he had gone to the swamp, and 11 linking that he was lost, turned out to eook for him, several of the young men of the town spending the entire night in the search.

Findley, Esq., of Gainesville, was in the city Thursday on Ids retnrn from Kill jay, where lie has been during the week to assist in the defense of his uncle, VV alter VV. Findley, who was charged with the offense of murder. He give* the following account of the difficulty, out of which four murder cases have sprung: Walter Findley ai*l Robert P. Woody were mad with each other, and had been for some time, though no trouble was antci pated. They by accident, met at ML Pleasant Church, which is on the top of the Blue Ridge, on the road leading from Ellijay to Biairsville, in Gilmer comity. Findley hitched iiis horse and went into the church; Woody came up afterward, driving a yoke of oxen, took them out and attempt ed to go in, but the services were conclud ing. Woody was drinking, and had a jug of brandy in the wagon. His wife was with him. Findley came out of the house, and walked around Woody’s wagon to where his horse was hitched, and called to Jesse Bailv, who was with him. to come ahead and we will go home. Woody at this point told William Thomp son to help his (Woody's) wife in the wagon and told him to "roll her in. Findley told Bailv to roll his saddle blanket up. put on his saddle and thev would go. Woody misunderstood this, and understood Findley to speak about his wife and sa v roll her up. VVoodv began immediately to curse Findley, and the latter returned bis abuse in kind. Woody then wished to tight. but friend* held him. He finally got out iiis pistol, and with it in hand was making for Findley. Findley told Woody when he was trying to get loose to come out from the crowd and they would set tle it. When Woody was advancing, pistol In hand, Findley drew his and the firing began. According to Woody’s theory Findley fired first, and to Findley’s Woody got" in the first; shot. When the firing ceased, Woody was shot in the right hand and arm and in the abdomen. Findley’s hat had a bullet hole through it, and his coat, vest and shirt cut, and his skin on the breast slightly lacerated from a ball from Woody’s pistol. Findley was also knocked down with a rock. William Kim sey, a bystander, was, during the affray, shot and killed. No arrests were made. The affair took place o" Sept. 28, 1884, and in November following the Grand Jury indicted both VVoodey and Fi’ diey for "the murder of Kimsej', and each for assault, witli into it to mu de.r the other. Woodev was arrested upon the twj warrants against him. was tried on the assault with intent to murder at the October term, 1885, and found guilty of shooting at another, and sent to the pen itential-)- for one year. At the Mav term, 1887, he was tried for the murder of Rimscv and aoauitted. Findley after the affray went to Missouri and remained a short while, and at the October term, 18S5, of Gilmer court, went into the court house and in open court sur rendered himself, and was admitted to bail. Since then, for various reasons, the cases have been continued: but on last Monday he was put ufn ids trial for the murder of Kimsey, and on yesterday morning, at the opening of court, the jury returned a ver dict of not guilty. Woody and Findley have now both been tried for the murder of Kimsey. ami a jury has said that neither is guilty of it. Findley continued the case of assault with intent to murder against him, and that will come up the first case at the next May term. , Making Up Rost Time. From the Tallahassee Tallahassean.
