One morning he ami an other man got separated from the,command, am! while following their trail was suddenly confronted by some ten or twelve savages who were probably a hundred yards off They both turned to floe when' the In dian, fired on them. 11 is <rimpanion fell dead but he sped on, and the Indians followed. He gid into a tlimket and dodged hither and ! thither, and at last found an old hollow log of huge proportion, into which he crept. After awhile ho heard an hidiun tramping around. He npj.roaelied the log. got on it. walked to the end arid sat down. The- man in the log was . scared very much, but kept quiet. Tim Indian ' sat a few minutes got up and Jett, and pretty soon imothei one came along. He, too, sat cm the log and then followed in the tracks of the other fellow. The hidden man began to breathe easier, when he a/ain heard the tramp, tramp, tramp of the third Imlian. v> ho camo up to tho log, looked ar<mud. at down for some time and then went in tbe dire.'tion the other two bad taken. He still lay quiet in his log for some time, when hearing nothing else from his foes ho began to pull out. when off in the distance he heard them beating the bushes, ami at. the same time his eyes fell on a large rattlesnake coiled up at tl.e mouth of the log. He was now indeed a prisoner and he ■ dared not move. Ths Indians drew nearer, coming this time towards the entrance of bis hiding place. The snake heard them, : rai .ed its bead and gently shook its tail. The Indians, three in number, heard the- warning ami curio nearer. The rattler then com menced his music in earnest, and was killed by the Indians, but it seems that they took its : presence at (lie entrance of the log as a surety I tbai the pers.tn they were seeking was not !

Tho killing of Heard by Davidson, near La- Grange, is a subject of discussion.

Hear<l answered ‘‘.some to bacco.’ Davidson said th.it ho had no tobacco, then pulled a pistol from behind him ami shot Heard. He then jumped out of the door and said, “Lord, Lord, Dock, I have shot you; 1 would not have done it for a million dollars.’ He said be did not know the pistol was loaded, but his wife contradicted him. and said hi* knew the pistol was loaded. 'I ho negro said he had never had any words w itb .Mr. Davidson. Coroner Thomas Davis held an impu st. Tho jury found that Perry I >avidson did "unlawfully, and without malice or forethought, shoot tlm said Dock Heard con trary to tho law of said state, the i*uace, good order and dignity thereof.” Charley Colley, the twelvc-ycar-oid son of John I'. Colley, of Dublin, received serious, if not fatal, injuries at the public gin of John M Stubbs Thursday. It seems that IL F. Lamb, the engineer, had engaged the Loy to do errands around the premises; and whilst lamb w as occupied in removing some seed that li.ul accumulated around the gin, ordered Charley to raise the gin-box for the pur pose oI um licking the gin. Charley’s strength was inadequate to the task thus imposed, and in his efforts to obey orders his legs w ere caught by the saws and horribly lacerated, Drs. Hicks and Johnson wa re summoned and ■ doomed it advisable to amputate his left leg ! just abow the knee. His recovery is exceed | ingly problematical.

I.ate one evening the colonel and | friend left the hospitable home of John Clif | ton. to meet Colom ls Lester and Garrard by ' appointment at Cobb Town. They got lost i amonp, the numerous timber roads, and soon I f-I: nd them,el vet in the dreary wilds of the • Oii-iopi-e. After taking in the. situation, it < was agreed in a committee of two to “accept the situation” and to camp ! all night there, and to retrace their steps in j the morning. Clifton was to make a tire, while his companion stripped the horses and, mounted on one ami leading the other, had proceeded to water them in the waters of the choopee. Ho bad just started tn do so, when, in the deep shadows of the twilight coming in, there was seen a huge, dark object emerging from the swamp. The lead horse broke away, while it took all the skill of the rider to re train the other frantic one. “Look out,Clifton, there conies a bear!” shouted the rider. AVIuJ shall 1 do, Brother W.?” yelled Clifton. "Climb that tree as quickly as vou can, hold your tongue, keep cool and await de velopmeitts!” the gentleman answered,* as I have not even my pen-knife.” “1 can't - limb, lam too heavy!” said Clifton. “You must climb!” said NV. “Skip tip. quick; you are in the hands of your friends; 1 11 brim- help toyou: climb that small tree; don’t talk: keep cool, and I 11 bring help from some of the wire gras- boys,, ’round here.” The colonel ran up ; the tree nimbly’, but to the great joy of both, the guff, guff, gull, of a large, black wild boat revealed the shadowy outlines, as it ran to the nearest covert, and no hear was there! Per haps it may be well for our young friend, just now, to “climb his tree, keep coo! and don't talk, and let liis friends bring help from the wire-grass boys, to fight any bear that may at tack him.” The fourleen-months-ohl child of Margaret Blalock, a negro woman living near Gilmer street, fell into a tnb of water strong:dydgshed w ith lye, yesterday afternoon, and came with in an ace of drowning before being rescued. The child was in a dangerous condition at midnight and may yet die. Margaret Blalock lives in a two room struct ure and spends much of her time bending over a wash tnb. Yesterday morning she was washing in the back room while her child was playing in the front room, the door between the two rooms having been left open. The back room floor is several inches lower than that of the front room. The woman had a large tub near the door. It was more- than halt full of water, in which lyo had been liberally thrown. During her work some one called her to the front door, and as the woman walked through the room her child was rolling about on the floor. She re mained at the door a minute or two, and then turned to her work. As she walked through the room she did not see her child, and while looking about for it dipped her hands into the tub of water. Instantly she sprang back shrink ing. “My God! Aly child!” Then, grabbing llie child, she raised it from the water, dripping wot. The, child was ap parently lifeless, and as the woman noticed this fact, sho gave shriek after shriek. Her cries attracted the attention of people living near, and in no time the two rooms were full. So,no one with presence of mind held the child by the feet, and in a few seconds signs of life began to appear. A messenger was sent for a physician, and Dr. Harris responded. The physician quickly detected that the child’s condition was dangerous and that the danger was occasioned by the lye. Its eyes were severely burned, while its throat and mouth were parched ami blistered. The eye-lashes and hair were quite loose and easily taken out, and the child was suffering intensely. Dr. Harris began doing what ho could to relieve the suffering child, and finally succeeded. During tin) af ternoon there was some improvement in its condition, but after dark it grew worse, and at midnight its condition was dangerous. MISSISSIPPI.

Special.]—Our i quiet little city was enlivened fur a .short time j this morning with apcisonal difficulty between , Dr. T. I'. Gibbs, a prominent druggist, and : Mr. Edwin Browton, publisher and junior ed j itor of the Madisonian, in which a lew blows ! were passed, and a small patch of hair dragged j from its paternal scalp. The difficulty was i caused by a discussion of the registration law, recently enacted by the legislature for this county. Dr. Gibbs was active in having the law passed as introduced originally, and Mr. Browton opposing the original and advocating ad amendment, which finally obtained. The discussion was conducted in the two papers pub- ■ lished here,the Madisonian and the Advertiser. Dr. Gibbs, in the heat of discussion, accused Browton of being personally and politically interested in defeating the original bill, ana Browton replying to Dr. Gibb's •■article in the Advertiser was very bitter, and Browton’s reply equally so, the one provoking the other. Suffice it to say that it resulted in a hostile meeting of the parties this morning at the ' courthouse, which resulted as a’nove. But for the timely interference of friends of each, the difficulty would have resulted more disastrous ly to one or both parties than it did. • * LtwiiENCEvn.t.E, October B.—[Special.] One of the most horrible deaths that a brute could suffer occurred last NVedni sday night.
