On Sunday night last, about half past 6
o’clock, a most shocking and cowardly
homicide was perpetrated on the pavement
before the Stubblefield Hotel.
Mr. J. B. Emerson, a plasterer by trade
and a citizen of Albany, who was one of
the party that didn't capture tiie burglar 1
on Saturday night, was seated in front of!
the hotel and conversing with a friend.— !
Near by a man by tiie name of Betts, a
sportin'' gentleman, and a professional:
man-kiiler, was also seated and engaged in j
conversation with some other gentlemen. I
The latter's conversation, it seems, turned
upon the burglary, and the escape of thej
burglar. Betts remarked that if he had
been there he thought he could have cap
tured or stopped the burglar. <‘n hearing
this, Emerson, probably smarting under
tiie implied rebuke, rose and advanced to
Betts and said to him. *•! was there, what
have you to say about it?”—or words to
that effect. Betts replied that he had not
addressed his conversation to him (Emer
son) and did not recognize Lis right to ap
proach him in ti vie. Emerson made
some re.i.ark.- ‘ten paces;” Betts
sprang to his K Id. “take your ten
paces’’ami simi - with his words,
lired. Tbe ball - Emerson in the re
gion of the heart. .. s he was in the act
of falling Betts tired a second shot, placing
the ball near the lir<t. Emerson fell and
never breathed afterward. Betts walked off'
and saddled a hor*e and rode somewhere.
A short time afterwards he sent the horse
back, and no definite information has been !
obtained of the course he took. Some lie- j
groes coming into town yesterday morn- !
ing say they saw him wending his w r ay to- :
wards Newton, on foot and in disguise—j
one of the negroe- recognizing him.
There are various rumors afloat, tracing!
the affair to a woman, but if a woman had
anything to do with it. it is probable that
Betts was mist ken for a man by the name
of Lemons, who Emerson said had threa
tened to kill him for whipping (Lemon’s)
lady love. Poor Emerson was under the
influence of liquor, and was almost as
harmless as a babe. His attack upon Betts
was unjustifiable, and of course insulting.
Betts being a stranger; but Betts certainly
acted most shamefully and cowardly in
firing before the ten paces could be mea
sured, and before Emerson had time to
think or to draw.
Betts is just out of prison for killing a
Federal officer, at La Grange, we believe,
and it is said lie is a practiced proficient in
this branch of the fine arts—having sent
six or seven to the grave-yard.
A warrant was obtained, but we have
heard of no effort to apprehend the guilty
man.
Since writing the above we learn that
the civil authorities, assisted by Captain
Howard of the Bureau, have taken steps to
f iursue and capture the murderer, if he can
>e found. It is to lie hoped they will suc
ceed. for it is time to stop the career of
blood this man loves so well to revel in.—

Politcal Complication!*.
Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.]
Washington, Nov., 1807.
Certain parties, disappointed in not se
curing the President’s aid to advance their
selfish purposes, are making strenuons ef
forts to prove that Johnson broke faith
with the New York Democracy after
making overtures to them. It is charged
that some weeks since, Cassidy, of New
Y ork, addressed a letter to a gentleman of
Washington, stating that the New York
Democratic Convention proposed to pass a
resolution repudiating Johnson and liis
Administration, and that this reached the
President.
It is further said that the President im
mediately dispatched a distinguished Mis
sourian ami ex-member of Congress front
Tennessee, to confer with Seymour. Hull-
man and others, with a view to arrest the
passage of the resolution, and arrange
other important matters. The resolution
was stricken out. and in return it was un
derstood Seward was to retire from the
* alii net. and New York lie represented
therein by John J. Cisco as Secretary of
the Treasury.
This programme was not carried out. and
each party charges the other w ith broken
faith. Johnsons friends assert that tiie
New Y'ork leaders agreed to have the Ad-
mi ifistration indorsed, which, not being
done, relieved him from any obligation to
make a change in the Cabinet. Several
spicy letters have passed between the rep
resentatives of tin—e high contracting par-
tic- in their efforts to settle the question of
bad faith. But no matter on whom this
rests. No < iibinet change.-, have been made,
and none are anticipated.
General Frank Blair, to whom was ten
dered a Cabinet appointment. lias declined
it. Ilis acceptance was contingent on the
reorganization of the whole Cabinet—
w hich is indefinitely postjmned.

Disgraceful.—Messrs. John and Dou
glass Wise, who made the assault upon
Pollard in Baltimore, on Thursday, may
congratulate themselves upon having de
monstrated. beyond cavil, their utter lack
of one quality at least, heretofore consid
ered the birthright of every Virginia gen
tleman. To attack a man while walking
along the public street —two against one—
and that man, too. with liis innocent wife
leaning on liis arm. recalls the old days of
of t!ie bravo's dagger, and the stealthy
spring of the hired a^sasMii from behind
corners, or out of dark alleys. What if
one of the balls intended for Pollard hail
taken the life of liis wife? Could her
slayer ever again have known pence?
Would any honest man have lifted his lin
ger to stay a frenzied mob from rending
him limb from limb?
We do not admire Pollard either as a
man or historian, but we should be asham
ed if e\en a much stronger prejudice than
we have toward him could abate, by one
jot or title, the indignation every gener
ous heart tnu>t feel toward those who. to
avenge any affront, wickedly' jeopardized
