New Yoik CORRESPONDENCE. From Lothair. About midday on Wednesday last while tho election was quietly progress ing and friends were enthusiastic ns to w ho would bo the successful competitors the citizenship of our community, wus thrown iuto the wildest and most intense excitement, by the sudden shooting and instant killing of Thus. A. Miller, by I. «T. Davis jr. The tragedy grew out of nn old feud, occasioned by other parties which led to the fatal altercation, the re sult of which is greatly deplored. Davis I was promptly arrested under a warrant charging him with murder, and lOo’cloek , Thursday was appointed for his commit- i uient trial. Tho State, and Defendant , were ably represented by Cols. C. D. ; Loud and T. It. Felder, respectively, j both of whom displayed much skill, and interest iu behalf of their clients. Much energy uml consideration w as also exhib itod by the court, to give the, parties a fair and impartial heariug. Tho testi tuony however, was very conflicting and . resulted in bail for the defendant in the sum of §IOOO for his appearance to ans wer for manslaughter. Quite n lurg. crowd were in attendance on the occa sion, nml much interest was manifested throughout the wliolo proceeding which count mod the entire day and pait of the u'glit. Peace and good order prevailed aud all the respect necessary, was shown to the court, and its officers, and thus ■ we say, let the law have its course. I have just learned that Mr. T, J. Pritchett had the misfortuuo to lose his forage house by fire on Sunday, Sov- ; eral thousand pounds of forage was de stroyed, and lu insurance. The burn ie,« la mu ito n-ivo been accidental, I ; have no other news, only it baa been suggested that my young friend Sammy, be exempted from mud duly, as be Las in charge four cliureues, two Methodist and two baptist. Wo hope the road com mi.viioners will leak after the matt r. Mi- Josin Ai*.irnmon is entitled to many thunk-, for the tine.-1 p.-mt . rm.ut. s j wi* t:v* r saw. Wo highly appreciate . neh favors, from the h.-mlsof our dear girls, aud hope at sumo futuro lane to bo able to reciprocate lle-m. T also tender to you, Mr. Editor ciy sincere thanks for your kindness; in of fering me- upturn in the columus of our; highly appreciated Lome paper, tore-ply to my antagonist. I only have to say, that tho good people in and around Lo thair, have never been censured, orcrit- j icised by rue, but on tho contrary I have for four years been their constant friend, crying aloud, and sparing not, in vindi cation of their rights, and ability, as a people, and community, morally, finau icully and politically. This .tho good pcoplo know, and I am satisfied, al though it is houest to confess, that like my oppouent, I am anything but a Christian, if I am not misled in my con ception of wlmt it takes to coubtiluto a Christian. I therefore most respectfully decline to occupy your space, and con sume my time to get up a newspaper controversy by ;answering a letter the purports of which, like its author is too insignificant to eleeit public attention, and worry tho patience of an editor. So I bid him farcwoli, with liia pipe arid bis puff And I II go on paddling, in search of the medi cated stuff, Dobbs. Red Bluff. This community has been stirred up to its depths by| the killing of Thomas A. Miller, by 1, J. Duvis on election day. Both tho parties stood high in the community, aud everybody seems to be excited and stunned by tho unfortunate occurrence. The result of the prelimin ary trial was a very difToreut conclusion from that of tho coroner’s inquest, for while tho verdict of the jury on the in quest was wilful murder, tho judgment of the court of iuqiury was manslaughter, mid a bond of ono thousand dollars, which was promptly’given. There was more interest manifested in the late election than ever before, and the white and colored people seemed to bo thoroughly orgaui/.ed, and all hands, working for t heir friends, and we hope this union will never again ho broken. It is fearfully dry tip hero now, and if it don’t rniu soon the fall crops will bo ruined, uud stock, iu many place, tvilluulVoF f«»* Water. i). «N (J, Earthquake Month. Charleston outers upon tbo second month of her great affliction with sturdy courage and a resolve to hold the fort ns long as there is any ground left to stand ou. The slight shock which cnine on tho Ist of October —it eauio at about 1:45 a. m., with the usual accompani ment of subterranean thunder - has in no way dampened tho ardor nor chilled the courage of the people, who are striving to rebuild their shattered homes. It umy be iutoresliug to recall the fact that siuco the introductory shock, which took place ou the 27th of August, called tho “Sutumorville incident,” just ex actly thirty distinct shocks have been felt up to midnight on the 30th of Sep tember. A record of tho days on which these shocks occurred was kept by one of News and Courier stall, and is as fol lows: August 27.. 1 shook, slight August 28 1 shock, slight August 31 5 shocks, destructive Sept 1 3 shocks, severe Sept. 2 3 shocks, severe Sept. 8 2 shocks, severe Sept. -1 2 shocks, slight Sent. 5 1 shock, moderate Sept. 7 2 shocks, blight Sept, 8 1 shock, slight Sept. 10 1 shock, slight Sept. 12 1 shock, slight Sept, 15.. 2 shocks, moderate Sept, 21. 1 shock, severe Sept. 22 1 shock, moderate Sept 27 1 shock, sovere Sept. 28 1 shock, moderate Sept. 30 1 shock, slight. Mr. Macon D. Sharp, traveling passen ger agent of the Atlanta and West l’oiut railroad, ticketed a party of North Geor gia people to Sacvameuto, Cal., yester day morning. Ho left himself for Wash ington, D. C., in the afternoon ou a busi ness trip. Captain J. H, Kirkland, one of the cleverest conductors ou tho Richmond and Danville, returned yesterday morn ing from au extended tour of twenty days through tho north aud northwest. His trip was delightful. Messrs. W. F. Shelluran, traffic mana ger of tire Ceuteral railroad; Cecil Gab belt, general manager of the Atlanta and West l'oiut and Western of Alabama railroads; J. \V. Green, goueral manager of the Georgia railroad, aud Charles H. Cromwell, general Height and passenger Agent of the Atlanta nud M ost l’oiut and Western of Alabama railroads, was in the city vest, rdav. Maryland's Volcano Borne excitomeut was created in Mary- ! land during Hie past week by report that since the earthquake of A . 31 v Biuet-s of si,. ;ke had be.-il , eu issuing from »-j -vj, - i t.'.o jeighborhiiou of Ci.ituovy i ;ck i.-e.ir Mf.-eiiauicstowu Aid., on the Blue ltidge range. . j Tho summit of Chimney rock is very diffi-nlt to i each ft is cue, of the st ep- . i -t no o’ wildcat of the Blue liidgo chain. | The summit is 1,200 feet above Mechan ic-town, and if Chimney rook 6Uould i over torn info a Vesuvius that would bo , the la-.t of thecLat tiling village in which so many E-dlimureans now find their summer homo. At the height of 1,100 feet a tornado is ! reached. After proceeding about (iffy I yards along the plateau the progress of : the tourist is blocked by a perpendicu-I lar wall of bare limestone known as table rook. The wall arises from the pleteau j fully 250 feet ou each side like the ram parts of a great fortress. By perilous climbing tho top of Chimney rock is reached. There are many curious fissures in the roek. These are of an unknown depth. From these fissures columns of smoke have been seen to rise from time to timo within the last two years. Landlord | Miller aud many others have seen this j smoke, and it was plainly definable from | tho intense blue smoky haze that always | covers tho Hluo Ilidgo peaks. It was a ! douse, black smoko, forming a strong contrast to the blue l aze. Mr. Miller 6ays that when he first no ticed the smoke coming out of the moun tain, two years ago, it seemed to start up like a jot of high-pressure steam, as thick as the trunk of a big tree and with a Crown like a foliage of a mountain pine. The investigators madean effort to gauge I the depth of the fissures, but without success. Many of them w ero partly filled ' iu with timber aud bilge stoues, which i had been cast down by inquisitive visi- j tors, but wherever the view was unob structed it was easy to see that they ex tended far below tho, visible base of the tablo rock itself, and probably hundreds of feet into the depths of the mountain. Volcano or no volcano, it is plain that active geological changes had been at work on Chimney rock within quite a re cent period. The attention of geologists has been culled lu Chimney rock and its queer phenomena, and since the recent : earthquake disturbance, which somewhat i enlarged tbo fissures, tlie residents of the I valley have not been a lijtio agitated ever the idea that the top of Chimney rock may prove to be a crater. —Balti- more Cor., Now York Journal. . < « «*-- - ■ The Tciborty Fund. New Y-u lr, October G.—The trustee* ! of the Peabody educational fund held ( their annual meeting to-day iu this city.! The following were proscut: Ex-Presi dent Hayes, Robert C. Winthrop and Theodore Lyman, of Massachusetts;! Chief Justice Waite, Bishop H. B j ; Whipple, of Minnesota; Thomas G. Man-; uing, of Louisiana; Anthony Diesel, of ; Philadelphia; Samuel Green, of Mass-; e.ehusetts, nud James D. Porter, of Ten nessee. In his annual address President Win- , throp said that tho reduction of interest ' bad diminished the income realized j from the fund left in trust by Mr. Pea-' body. He congratulated the trustees on I their twenty years’ successful work, and ! called attention to the necessity of sp earing national aid for education. He alluded to the illiteracy among the ne groes of tho south and said that educa tion would make them bi tter aud stop frauds. Referring to South Carolina, Mr. Winthrop said that not ono of the southern states lmd made greater or more successful efforts iu the- cause of edueft lion. She u<bv needed assistance, ow ing to the terrible destruction caused by the recent earthquake. ITe said the proposa l statue to Mr. Peabody by the presidents of Virginia schools, to tie placed iu the capital in Washington, was a merited tribute tq a man who had given §2,000,000 for southern schools. The secretary in bio report gave the amouut apportioned to each state. He said that iu consequence of the states of Florida and Mississippi n-pudiating their bonds the fund bad lost §1,003,000 which had been given by Mr. Peabody to the fund. Their allotment had becu stop ped and divided among tho other states. The income of the fund for tho year amounted to §02,365, divided as follows: Alabama, §-1,900; Arkansas §2.300; Geor gia, $2,000; California, §3,800, North Carolina, §2.700: South Carolina,ss,ooo; Tennessee, §10,000; Texas, §3,000: 1 ir giuia, §1.505; West 1 iegiiua §3,300. At tho meeting to-morrow increased al lowance will probably he made far South Carolina. The trustees were giveu a private banquet tonight, at which were present General Sherman and Airs.

During the past week the shocks Lave been much stronger ! and come ranch more frequently. It is j confined mostly in a triangle, formed ! by two public roads and a stream of wa ter, called hero a cieek, the sides of which weald measure two miles, Liv , ing within this radius are three Mr. j . Jvinards, Mr. O. Hamilton, Mr.FroukEl lenburg, Mr. John Smith and J. H. Wil-1 lininson. The shocks were heavy enough . | on one night last week to run the-famil ! ies out of their Looses. Mr. William j son and Mr. Ellenhurg live nearer the ! creek than the others, and are more 1 troubled. Mr. Ellenburg and family ! have not spent a night at home in a | week. Mr. Williamson was picking cot ton in his field on Tuesday afternoon, and was upon his knees when a shock catno. He reports it so great that it gave him a pain all through his limbs. His wife was in the field with him. She had just come from the house to bring him some fresh water. As long as the shocks continned iu Charleston we thought it all came from there. The peo ple claim to have been henriug these sounds for eighteen mouths. During the war there lived au old man in this same seetkm by the name of Jacky Walker, a good, old baptist, whose veracity was as good as General Robert E. Lee’s, and that is saying a good deal, who did hear, and so re ported every time he came to town, the reports of tire seige guns that were fired in and around Charleston. We had no telegraph line on this road then, and only got news once a day by train, lie would tell how many shots were fired, and the paper next day would always tally with him. Ho is dead, but we have men living here who board him tell of ten, and wiro will testify to his always I giving the time nl day and number of j shots in advance of the Charleston pa pers. Now, I think this is a strong proof that tlre.o shocks are in some way con nected with the shocks in Charleston; ! and there must Ire an under current of [ air vacuum underground, or something of the kind, that conveys sonuil from | Charleston to this section of country.
