It appears that Mr. Conkling has the happy faculty of getting sick when matters do uot go as he wishes them. The Hod. Emory Speer lends n helping hand to the powers that be in the filling of Federal olllces in this District. The millionaire candidate for Con gress in the Ninth District of New York was left way behind by his Dem ocratic opponent. There is too much communism in New York for the rich man. The new Gorcrnors-elect are Loi g of Massachusetts, the incumbent; Hubbard, of Minnesota; Lowry, of Mississippi; Cameron, of Vi g n a aud Rusk, of Wisconsin. Messrs. Long. Hubbard, Rusk and Cameron are Republicans; Mr. Lowry is a Democrat. Memphis cotton dealers are consid ering the advisability of covering cot ton bales with sheet iron that will weigh 22 pounds to the bale. We cannot imagine what will be the result of the project, but it would prevent so much waste and have a tendency to stop such discriminate sampling. Mr. Raphael Serames, a gentleman whoso name will carry many readers back into the days of war, has just been married to Mi3s Marion Adams, of Louisville. Among the decorations of the church wherein the ceremony took place was a miniature copy in flowers of the ship Alabama, the Con federate vessel commanded by the bridegroom’s father. The battle flag and pennant of the Confederac}’ float ed from the masts. 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 to fourteen cents per bushel since the collapse of the bull movement in the earl}’ part of last month, and the bears 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 News Smith. 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. 31m Jidpettisemetitg. D. M.
