about the line a road was to take.
Matters culminated in both parties

shot and killed outright and the other was
fatally wounded. The spectacle was an
awful one; one man lyiug dead on tho
ground and the other in the very throes of
death, while the Untonc stood with smoking
revolvers In hand. The scene of
the killing is near Buena Vista, in
Marion county. All the parties
couoerned with this deplorable affair are
highly respectable and stand well In tho
neighborhood where they live. Tho
coroner’s jury loft Buena Vlster Tuesday to

may be jSjmpeiled to ascertain the facts

Atlanta Journal: Larry Gantt has dis
pose,l r f all the responsibilities connected
with the Alliance Farmer, and. it is said,

for its columns from his country villa near
the classic Oity of Watkiusviile. But the
latest authentic information concerning him
] is that he will shortly leave for Ireland and
| spend f our or five mouths there among the
! peasantry. ,He will employ himseif iu writ
! iag syndicate letters to this country
! giving the inside history of Irish
politics as viewed from a “special
artist on tbo spot.” Mr. Gantt
thinks most of tbe news furnished about
Ireland’s condition is from men who never
got further than Dublin, and who have not
mixed with the masses; and in this he is
ab out right. When ho returns from Ireland
he proposes to draw on his friends in the
Atbor.s district to the full amount of a seat
in congress. He has helped a great many
men to a fat job in that district, and be
now wants a little reciprocity policy
adopted. In other words, he is going to
run for congress. His health is good
enough to stand a Washington climate for
two years or more if hu constituency say so.

There came near being a serious difficulty
at a <iano i in Hart’s road, near Fernandina,
Friday evening, in which D. B. Houston
received two gashes in his hand from a
knife. It seems that Houston was trying to
pacify young Walter Wilds, who was
slightly intoxicated and threatening a party
against whom he had a grievance. Hous
ton also had hit* coat cut iu two or three
places, but luckily the knife did not pene
trate the flesh. Mr. Wilds was arraigned
before Judge Schuyler at Fernandina Mon

weapons and assault. He was held in tho
sum of SSO on the first charge and $.300 on
the other, and failing to secure bond he was
committed to jail.
Jacksonville Metropolis: W. H. Incas
of this city can tell an interesting war
story for one so young wheu the late war

when mustered in ns a soldlor of tho “Con
federate States of America.” lie soldiered

lanta cosst and on the St. Johns river, but,
as was the case of most of the Florida
troop i, they were gradually withdrawn
from the state and placed iu the armies in
Tennessoo and Virginia. “Billy” was in
Virginia during the trying times around
Cold Harbor, Romney and Front Royal,
which many of us who wore the gray (or
remnants of it) now remember with sad
hearts, sadness caused by privations, land
marching, reverses and death of many
noble comrades. Mr. Leans was for some
time bofore enlistment "the drummer boy”
for his company at bis native town Palatka.
Pursuant to the call a number of the
