Mr. Raphael Serames, a gentleman

Notwithstanding the debt-compro
mise measure adopted by the Tennes
see Legislature last winter, the debt
question continues to be the leading
political issue in the State. The com
promise, it will he remembered, was
that the old bonds should be funded
into new bonds at their face value,
bearing three per cent, interest. The
compromise also provided that the
coupons of the new bonds should be
received for taxes.
Prices of wheat and corn have de
dined in the Western markets thirteen

collapse of the bull movement in the

are pushing their advantage with a
vigor that threaten to force values as
much below a legitimate basis as pre
vious manipulation in the “long” in
terest had overshot it. Meanwhile
exporters who have heretofore been
passive spectators of the market, are
beginning to take a livelier interest in
its fluctuations, and the outward move
ment gives promise of an early in
crease in volume.
The Southern Connection.
It is well known that one of the
original aims of the projectors of the
Gainesville and Jefferson railroad was
to extend it from Jefferson to Athens.
Subsequently, as the most of our rea
ders know, the Gainesville crowd got
to running off after etrange gods, and
adopted the plan of going to Jug Ta
vern, and from there to tap t ie Geor
gia road at Monroe or some other
point, and the people of Jefferson were
told to do the best the}' could on then
own hook.
The building of the branch to Jug
Tavern is a certainty, and several
routes have been surveyed from that
point to the Georgia road, but the
people along none of the routes sur
vcyed have made much of a hurrah
over the possible advent of the iron
horse and promised less money. So
that the extension in that direction is
lagging behind, and cannot be rated
in a prosperous condition. But anew
light seems to be dawning upon our
Gainesville friends, and they think
they can seel.daj'light in another direc
tion. While we know nothing of their
thoughts, yet it has entered our minds
that they arc considering the possibil
ity of making their much desired
Southern connection by this place on
to Athens. We base our supposition
upon the following facts, viz: the
Georgia road has decided, and will in
a short time, connect with the North
eastern at Athens, This makes Jt
easy for a road from this place to con
nect with the Georgia road at a point
Auirusta than from Mon-
roe or Covington. Alliens will build
a road to this place or Jug Tavern
anyhow, and in all probability the
Southern connection will be male bv
Athens before it can be made by the
Gainesville people via Monroe or
Covington. Athens will be more
likely to build to Jefferson than to
Jug Tavern, as it is nearer and will
cost about half as much.
That the a' ove statements are cor
rect all will admit, and ['resident Can
dier sees them ju-.t that way, and he
will lie apt to make the c.L zens of the
Queen City of the Mountains see them
in the same light.
Now, it will be an easy wav out of
the difficulty, and cost the Gaines
ville, Jefferson & Southern railroad
nothing but the money for eighteen
miles more of iron, just to say we will
go b}' to Alliens for our
Southern connection. 'Flic reason
why it will coA no more is because
Athens will make the grade and fur
nish the cross ties for her part, and
she can do this at a cost of eighteen
or twenty thousand dollars. The con
nection by Jefferson presents no difli
cullies, by the other routes they are
innumerable and will be hard to over
come. Hence, we believe that it will
not be long until the idea of connect
ing over to the main line of the Geor
gia road is abandoned, from the fact
that it can be accomplished so much
easier, at so much less cost, by re
turning to the original plan of coming
by Jeffersju and going to Athens.
This route presents many advantages
that will accrue both to Athens and
Gainesville, and besides, there will be
no reason why it will not lie the pop
ular route from Athens to Atlanta, as
it will be much nearer than to go b,j
Lula.
That the line would eventually ex
tend to Dahlouega, and take in all of
its valuable trade, and from there go
on into Tennessee, is no improbable
conjecture, and we may not live many
more years before it is an accomplish
ed fact.
Details of the Killing of Djiisop.
Last year a man named Dunson.
bailing from Harmony Grove, became
a tenant of John Eberhart's in this
section of Oglethorpe. He stayed the
year out and MPs year became a ten
ant, of Jaque Eberhnrt, but as the
crop progressed lie sold out to Wesley
Kidd, and induced him to move into
tie house with his family. There had
been some improper intimacy be
tween Mrs. Kidd and I)nnsou. reports
of which had reached Dunson’s wife,
am* when the Kidd family moved in
she left and, it is supposed, went back
to Jackson county.
After staying around- hero some
time Dunson went off—to Macon, it is
said—and had been in this neighbor
hood but a short time when this un
fortunate affair occurred. It is report
ed he had been on a spree and had
not sobered off when, on Mondaj' ev
ening, lie called at Kidd's. One ac
count is that Dunson met Mrs. Kidd
in her garden and told her iie wanted
her to sell out and go to Macon, and
that she would not consent; that she
went into the house and lie followed
her, Kidd being present, and there lie
continued to abuse her, and finally
struck her. and, striking at her a sec
ond time, hit the child which she had
taken ; she then left the house to go
to her father-in-law’s house, about a
mile distant. Another account gives
no quarrel between Dunson and Mrs.
Kidd, and that Kidd told his wife to
go to his father’s. If quarrel there
was, however, and blows given, Kidd
heard the one and saw the other with
out resenting either. Both accounts
agree that when Mrs*. Kidd was about
200 yards fro si the house she turned
and saw Kidd and Dunson quietly
sitting down facing each other, and
that was the last look she was ever to
take of Dunson.
Between 9 and 10 o’clock at night
a fire appeare 1 in the direction of the
house occupied bv Ividd, and .Jaque
Eberhart was the first to reach the
place and find the house nearly con
sumed, and could see the head of a
man protruding from what appeared
to be burning bedding. And this was
the condition of affairs until the next
day, when the heat had so far died out
as to permit an investigation.
This investigation developed a hu
man body, lying under bedding which
had burnt to a crisp, the mass of half
burnt bedding protecting the breast
from being destroyed by the consum
ing element, but the legs, arms and
head, being exposed to the (lames,
was almost burnt to ashes.
Close examination developed (lie
fact that flie man had been killed.
The lick of ail axe was discovered on
the loft side of the head, just above
the eye. and another blow with the
blade of the axe, the point falling just
above the root of the teeth of the up
per jaw in front, several teeth being
cut out (found on the ground l>} r the
skull), and cutting off a portion of the
lower jaw.
Lying on the body was discovered
$1.65 in specie, knife and memorandum
book, the contents of the latter reveal
ing the fact that this was all there was
of the human body of poor Dunson.
The coroner’s jury rendered a ver
dict that deceased came to his death
by violence at the hands of Wesley
Kidd.
Some difficulty was had in securing
interment for the remains, but a gen
tleman finally volunteered to perform
the act, and a hole was dug, the body
rolled up in a lied quilt and tossed in
the hoTc, and thus the rites of Chris
tian burial were given !
It was thought a little singular that,
although all the people in the neigh
borhood turned out to the fire, not a
member of the elder Kidd’s family
put in an appearance, although they
lived as near as mast of those who
/ere there.
Wesley Kidd was n >t at the scene of
the burning, and had disappear!
from tiio neighborhood. On Friday
last he put in appearance, however,
and admits that he killed Dunsm,
and gives his version of the affair. He
reiterates the account given of the
scene between Dunson and his wife;
that lie abtned her because she would
not consent to go to Macon ; that he
struck her; that lie, Kidd, did not
resent Dunson’s conduct because lie
was afraid o' him. lie then states
that alter Mrs. Kidd left ti e house
Dunson followed her awhile and then
returned, and then commenced raving
about tlie room ; then began to throw
the bed clothing in the fire : that he
then told Dunson he must behave him
self or leave the house ; that Dunson
made an impertinent reply, whereup
on lie seiz and an axe an 1 li t him on tbe
hea l v.i’ll it. The first blow was fol
lowed quickly by a second. The blows
of the axe had knocked the man un
der the bed. but he saw that he had
killed him, and became so frightened
he did not know what to do, so he ran
away. He was now ready to give
himself up. Supposed the fire was
the result of the burning bed quilts,
which was partly thrown in the fire by
Dunson. some of the ends or cornir*
reaching out to the floor.
How craven the man who permits
another to insult and his wile
an l strike her and her babe, without
resentment, and is then roused to mur
derous indignation at the burning of
a bed quilt!
Dunson was a riotous, rowdy fel
low, a good worker, but not a very
creditable citizen, about 55 years of
age. lie was seen with about a linn
dred dollars shortly before the killing.
Kidd is a no a •count-to-himself-or
anybody-elsc fellow, about 25 years of
age.
Mrs. Kidd has n >t a reputation as
pure as an unprinted sheet of paper,
so her neighbors say.
The scene of the killing and burn
ing was about three-quarters of a
m.le from Jones’ ferry.
At the investigation of the ease be
fore a justice's court on Monday the
facts as stated above were substantia!
iy established, and Kidd was turned
loose. Jaque Eberhart testified that
Dunson told him Saturday before the
killing that lie intended to take Mrs.
Kidd back with him if he had to kill
out the whole Kidd family. —Elberton

Election Day in Mississippi.
Meliniax. Miss.. November B.
Four white men were killed and two
severely wounded by negroes to-day at
Marion Station, in this county. The
nggrocs opened fire on the whites at
the [mils while the election was going
on. The whit es had no arms to defend
themselves with, and consequently
none of the negroes suffered. One of
the men killed was A. F. Harvey, the
Democratic candidate for County
Assessor. The Slier ff. with a posse
from this place, found about a hundred
negroes barricaded in the dwell'ng of
their leader. K!. Vance. The posse
was fired upon by the negroes as ibey
approached the house. Another body
of armed men have gone from here to
the scene of disturbance to assist the
Sheriff. With this exception, the
election in this county has been qiret
and orderly.
A Sheriff's posse, consist ing o(’about.
100 men, surrounded Ed. Vance’s
house to capture the instigators and
perpetrators of the murders at Marion
station this morning, and demanded
their surrender, which was refined.
.John Vance, aged 22. a son of El.
Vance, riding up. pointed his gun at
the posse, and was sho* and killed..
A. G. Warren, of the posse, was killed
instantly by a shot fired from the inside
of the house. El. Vance and the
negroes escaped. Several negroes in
escaping were shot at and wounded.
Will. Vance, aged about thirt}-, also a
son of Ed. Vance, was captured and
lodged in jail.
The Sheriff received a slight wound
from a spent bullet. Hardin Jones,
of the posse, was slightly wounded.
Vance and the negroes have fought
desperately all day from inside the
house, and thus having all advantage,
it was difficult to cant ire them. The
names uf the killed at tlie pods this
morning nre A. E. Harvey, Joseph
Barnett and Jeff. Segars. Vance Segura
was mortally wounded. James Ho Iges
and Levi Moore were wounded—the
former seriously and thelaUer.sliglu.lv.
