ATTJKXIFfI?I> AS*AS*I.\- AIIO.V A Young Mini Sliol and Se verely Wounded Avar Thomson Augusta Chronicle. # On Sunday evening last, just after sundown, Mr. Tufta.i Boyd was g >iot' from his lather's residence lo Cobb liain, about, eight milts from Timin' son, when ho was fired on twice by some par'ics who were in ambush. The weapon used was a double bar rel shot gun, loaded with buckshot. The first shot took effect in his left side ami breast, hut the second miss ed him. II" was on horse back, nn<l the horse became frighten ami ran off with him. Just before he reached Gobhhain he fell from his horse, utr .conscious from the loss ofldood. Tin nnirnal went on home, and a negro man seeing him riderless immediate ly started in search of Mr. Boyd, and found him lying insensible on the side of the road. Help was summon ed, ami tho wounded man carried back to his father’s house, and medic cal aid procured. The physic inns found that he had received in th e bit arm, in tho left side, and two in the breast. The most serious one is in the left breast, just below tho nipple. Tho people failed w> find the bull in the wound, and it is feared that it is fatal. A second attempt was made on Monday night to kill the young man by shooting him, as he lay in bed, tbrongh the window. This intention was discovered, and the would bo as sassins were driven off. Suspicion was directed to three brothers, linin' ed Martin, as tho perpetrators of the deed. A party of men were organi' zed and went to the place where tlie shooting was done, nnd there they found tho tracks of three parties, These tracks weie followed to a house occupied by Peyton Martin, where one dropped out, anti the two remain ing tracks were followed to the bouse of Mr. It ibort A. Marlin, the father of the Martin brothers. Tho tracks were measured, and found to corres* pond in size to the Marlins, On this and other evidence warrants were sworn out for the arrest of the broth ers, and placed in tha hands of slier' iff Norris, who summon'd a posse and lift Thomson yesterday after noon for the purpose ol arresting the Marl ins. It. is said that the t rouble grew out of charges made l>v Miss Georgia Martin against Boyd. Boyd, it is al so said, promised to marry Miss Mat tin, when confront, and with the accu sation made by her, but failed to do so. Proceedings were instituted against him, and tho trial is set. down olr trial at the September term of McDuffie Superior Court. It is s a ted that llmats against Btyd have several times been made by the M ar tins. There is much excitement in McDuffie over the afl iir. Dr. Wm. N. Hill, one ol the city vaccinators of Baltimore, Mil., is down with the small pux. Though he has vaccinated thousands within the past few months, lie has not himself been vaccinated since early childhood, “Wet and dry” politics run high in Charlotte, N. C. llov Mr.Owens was bitten by a snake near that town, the other day, and sent in a hurry to n saloon ko eper for the usual antidote, l'lie saloon keeper ret used, mnai king that l:e would lit let u man who vo ted the dry tickut have any whisky, even for snake bites.’’ Another ea looniats was more accommodating, and 'the suffering preaolu r took a s" g that effectually relieved him. A couple, Mr, Henry Hill and Miss Cochrane, of Hill, North Carolina, ate booked for a wedding at the Poplar fcent fair. Neither of them are well off ami have bron w ait ing a favorable opportunity lor some time, and this fair suits them. They are to ho married at llio grand stand, in view ot all the spectator*, at 12 o’clock, on the 9th of August, the first day of the fair. The fair buy their license, pays the parson, gives them a dinner and a premium of leu dollars. There will b<> a wedding the second day, on the same terms, but the premium money will lie live dol lars. Fiorn the Apopka Citiren: We dislike to publish anything which hits the appearance of incredibility, yet the following account of a chicken tragedy cotnes to us so direct f.-oiu a gentleman whose truthfulness is ut>* questionable that we give it : Last Wednesday morning a gentleman living near Apopka City Fla,, pro posed to sever the he id and body of one ofitis liens who had a bad reputa- tion, having been known to destroy eggs and besides fighting aU( j coming in the house. No sooner had lie accomplished bis purpose when the head cackled desperately and the body walked about the yar d as though nothing had happened. j{c ran after the body but failed to get it, ns it flew to the top of a pine, where it now is—though lifeless.— Bartlesville GarseiK*. Evening Herald : We learn this morning that a son of Mrs. Webb was struck on the head the other day by <>ne of the bosses at the watch factory. From wl.at we could learn it seems that tho superintendent had lolt] the employes that it there were any signs of one of tho lamps explod ing to grab it tip ami throw it <-nt of the building. The other day, Mrs. Webb’s little son, who works at the factory, noticed that cne of the lamps was in a lair way of exploding, and iii'media’eiy picked it up and cast it into the street. As he did so, ono of the bosses above spoken of rushed in and picked up a slick of some kind struck the little fellow over th<- head hut with no serious result. The lit tie fellow is doing well so far we learn. It is said that a warrant has been served upon the party who did the striking. ttLVtr!T'FrLORGrv7""" , "" , ™" Herrs County, j To nil wliotii if may i-oncorn Z. F. Darkness Executor of William B.
