There has been a great deal of com.
motion during the past tear among
tie fire and lito insurance companies
of the country. Many prominent
ones havo failed, and their policy hol
ders have suffered. Investigation of
rhtir. has disclosed an astonishing
amount of rascality in their manage
ment. The president of a prominent
company, in New York, has just been
found guilty of perjury, and is in jail
awaiting sentence.
We advise all persons having their
lives or property insured to look we 1
to the character and standing of the j
companies they patronize.
A desperate Lgfit took place be
tween'the whites and blacks Satur
day afternoon at Muscle Shoals, a
small town on the Tennessee river,
about thirty miles northeast of Tus
combiti. The fight originated be
tween a white man and a colored bar
ber. The friends of each rushing in
assist, caused the fighu to become
general. Revolvers and knives were
used freolj - . Tire negroes were driven
out of town, exc pt three, who were
nearly beaten to death. After the
mob returned they set fire to the bar
ber shop and burned it to the ground
with all ita contents. One negro was
killed and a number wounded. Three
whites wore terribly cut and sho', but
none killed. A great deal of excite
ment prevailed tliere and there wero
fears of a further outbreak heforo
inornii g. There is much excite-'
ment in tl e place iver it.
Several children weie feeding a jios
bear with corn at Austin, Texas. An
c'( r was dropped out of the reach of
the bo: r, and a little girl handed it to
hitr. Ti e bear sportively pulled le r
to him, when a home dog, believing
the child in danger, sp rang upon t'in
boa'. Biu>n then carried the child
to the turtl er part of the hrgt head in
which he slept and returned to fight
tli6 dog, under the impression that the
deg would hutt the chid. A party
of daikies tried to protect the child
from her other pio'ectore, but the lit
tle odo did m t escape until her moth
er had killed both bear and dog with
a musket.
The Competroiler Oeueral baa sold
about all the fi fas issued egainst wi'd
lands f r taxes, generally to parries
who rre not owners of the land. The
holders of the fi fas can, at ny time,
advertise the lands in the counties
where they lie and have them sold ly
the Sheriff. Ti e owners have twelve
months to redeem them by paying
taxes, costs ai.c ”0 per rbnt. a edition
al. Many mistakes have been made
in the matter and there aro fi fas out
against many lots that are not “wild”
and upon which the owners have paid
fax for years. If you own any wild
lied 01 land of any kind, you had tet
ter watch the papor of the county
where it lies, or it may be sold and
bought and you know nothing of it
until it is too iate to redeem. Much
trouble will grow out of tt e n.aitei.
Thera seems to tie a marrying epi
demic raging throughout the comfy.
We never before heard of so many
weddings as are now being reported by

the cause and reason of it, unless it fi

per, and have deteimined to make the
vopture anyway.

exhumed, a few days ago, and an in
quest held. The following is the ver
dict r f the jury;
“We, the jurv, after a post mortem
examination of the body of T. T.

CtiTHBKKT, Ga , Deo. 19, 1877.
To-day Allred Marsha', eo'ored was
executed f.r the murder of Mr. S. A
White.
THE CHIME.
On the night of the slh nf May las',
Alfred Marshall esrne into Cutlrhert
with a lew dozen eggs, ol which he
sold an amount sufficient >o buy a quart
of whisky After imbibing treolv, he
came to where Mr. White was sitting.
Whi e asked him what he had in his
bask-t. Marshall told him he did
have eggs, hut had sold them, and
stated the p ice, White replied that
he would have given more. Marshall
replied, ‘ You are a liar. ’ \N bite said,
“You must not cal! me a liar. Mar
shall stepped hack n few paces, aurl
said “D —n you, I will kill you,” and
fired, the hall striking Mr. hite in
the body from which wound lie died
in a few minutes afterward.
Marshall then threw away Ids pistol
and mil, followed hy Officer Kirksey.
who soon captured him and lodged
him in the county jail. He was tried
duting the May term of tho court,
and found gui ty of murder. His case
was carried to tho supreme rouit an i
tho Judgment of tiro superior c urt
here affirmed ; and at the November
term, h* n tho remitter was received,
Judge Kiddoo sentenced him to hang
cu to-day. Through the kindness of
Sheriff Smith wo were permitted to
visit the doomed man a few hours be
fore his execution. Wo informed Al
fred that he had but a few hours to
live, and if ho had anything to say we
wru'd for glad to record il for the En
quirer Sun.
Ills STATEMENT.
He stated that on that fatal night
ho was intoxicated, and did not reeo!-
1 ct seeiDg Mr. v 'lrite; that hebrought
with him a pistol which would not re
volve. Ho added :“1 do not recollect
whether it was fixed or not; never
had any ill feeling against Mr. White,
and have no recollection when I shot
him, arid I was surprised at myself
when they told me what I had done
the night before. This is a 1 1 know,
an I*l am now ready to go and meet
my God! my glorious Redeemer. I
am thirty-nine years of age and have
a wife arid five living children. I lost
my arm during the war, and my dear
master, Wain all, both white and
black, that whisky has brought me to
this solemn end. Oh, my God !my
God!”
THE EXECUTION.
About.9i o’clock, Judge Kiddoo
sent an.order to Sheriff Smith, that if
the condemned man had any state
ment to make, it it ust be done in his
cell He declined to do so, and as he
went down the stairs (the ga lows was
erected immediateI}’ 1 }’ under the s'air
way) tie commenced, and did sing the
old sacred song, ‘ Just as I am, with
out one plea,” etc . and continued to
do so until lie mounted the scaffold,
when he commenced the song, “Ct me,
follow me to Jesus.” Duiirg this time
his wife with her five children wept
and shouted, j initig him in his fare
well song, witnessing his march to the
f-.tal instrument of and -nth. While
Marshal E. Bidgway was adjusting
the noose, Alfred admonished ail to
beware nf that cusre of all curses
“rum,” bid fitrevveil to all and hoped
that all in hits hearing would meet him
in heaven, that he did not fear death
and was ready to go. While he was
admonishing all and in the midst of a
sentence, Marshal Ridway c:.t the
re| e and Alfred Marshall wa3 launch
ed into eternity. His neck was r.nt
broken and he died from strangulation.
A most horrible scens was witnessed,
when, for seven or eight minutes, he
actually breathed. Being very near,
with Dr. McLester duting the time,
the breathing was perci ptrhlo.
About thee hundred negroes were

While in France, Gen. Toombs met
President Thiers, and they became
quite we I known to each other. Thiers

Constitutional Convention Gen
Toomb-* sent Thiers a copy of one of
his speeches against the encroach

Thiers seems to have attentively con
