Byrd Lyon a few days ago at Crawford, Ala., by some unknown parties. In anacoount we intimated that the murderer was a paid assassin, and feared that some family fend was at. the bottom of it. Wednesday night a man by the name of Charlie Metnika was arrested in {Opelika mi suspicion of the murder. He had been to Crawford for four days, but lea there two days before the murder with a view of returning to Opelika. On the night of the murder he was seen going from Craw ford with a shot gun, and riding in haste towards Opelika. After his arrest, ho ad mitted killing Lyon, jpd saidjhe was em ployed to kill Lyon by a woman. As yet we have not heard whether he has given the name of the woman who hired him. The ease will undergo judicial investiga tion. A Bt MII.ll AMKtTKB. tunfruttMi. and Recovery ntolen Woods. ; la Tuesday's Issue of ths Timbh we gave : a fuU account of the burglary at Bo* Spring, by which Mr. Chapman’s store was entered and of one hundrod and fifty dollars In silver, and the express agent, Mr. Jackson, was robbed of his keys and a shawl. As soou as tbo article apjieared. Lteut. Robarts, of the police force, a fine detective, set to work to find the bold burglar. Yesterday he succeed ed, and bounced upon TOM HELMS, COLORED. as the principal. He proved to bo right, for In his possession was found a part of the money and the shawl stolen from Mr. Jackson. Helms soon found out his game was up, and ho made a FULL CONFESSION of the crime. He says he learned there was money In Mr. Chapman's store, and that he made up his mind to have It. In company with also colored, ho went to the store after supper and bought a pound of‘cheese and crackers, and that when Mr. Chapman went Into the back room he secreted himself behind the coun ter, and In an opportune moment took out the money drawer and slipped out of the door. Ho then waited until Mr. Jackson, the express agent, went out of his office and slipped In and stole the keys to the depot and his shawl. From Box Bpring they came to Colum bus. THE FBISONKK Is now In jail, and probably before this Is read by our readers, hts oceompllne will be In the sarno predicament. Tom Helms Is a bad negro. On the second of October ho was discharged from the chalng-gang, having worked a nine months sentence. He was put upon the chain-gang for an attempt to burglarize Mr. Rafferty's store In this city. It will be reraemborod that on that occasion he concealed behind Mr. Rafferty’s counter, noar his money draw er, but was discovered and captured by Mr. Rafferty. He will be taken back to Talbot county, and If he gets his Just dues will remain In the penitentiary the best years of his lifo. He Is n black negro, about six feet blgh, and twenty-seven years old. Lieut. Robarts deserves especial credit for catching him, and we hope ho will be suitably rewarded. Ho caught him on Front street Audacious Robbery. A most daring robbery of the house of Lieut. T. Jeff. Bates, noar Girard, Ala., was committed about ten o'clock yesterday morning. The family, being all absent for a short time—having locked the doors be fore making a brief visit to a neighbor’s— the thieves ontered a window, and took from the house Mr. Bates’ trunk, contain ing most of his clothing; also, a pair of boots, a Hue shot gun, about $25 in money, and perhaps some other articles. The theft was quickly discovered, and parties started on the trail of the robbers. After some time spent In the search, the trußk was found In the bushes not far off, where it hail beon riflell. A further investigation led to the suspicion of Peter, a negro man in the employment of Mr. Isaac I. Moses. Peter was arrest ed and a portion of the goods found in his possession. lle Is a negro of vory little intelligence, and had a confederate who got the most valuable portion of the goods, and who had not been arrested yesterday afternoon, but, no doubt will bo. KNU OF A FICiMT. DEATH OF ONE OF THE COMBATANTS. Daniel McKlnne, who was struck by Dr. J. B. Kidd, during the late sitting of Stewart Superior Court, died Tuesday morning of this week. Mr. McKinne after being struck by Dr. Kidd was carried to the Tompkins Hotel, where ho was cared for until Monday morning, when his family moved him home, reaching home Monday evening. Wo learn that Mr. McKinne never spoke but one word after his arrival homo. He was asked If lie knew where ho was he answered, “at home,” and died that night. Ho was a good neighbor, good citizen and once a very popular man in Stewart. Ho leaves a family consisting of a wife and ten children to mourn bis loss. Atlanta Notes. The intelligent critic on the Cbnstitution got alter us a few days ago for spelling pity, “pitty." He stops to the front in an effusion of weighty llimsiness, and spells preventive, “provontative.” Will tho I. C. take a back seat and not go back on the compositor. Oh yo krittick!

The negroes enlisted in Atlanta have been ordered to face Sitting Bull. Fight ing Indians with negroes is a oute idea. It takes a half dozen Indians one hour to scalp a negro, In which time an advantage may bo gained by our side. Atlanta is always up to time, except when the engineers on the Georgia Rail road would not go out on time. Grady has gotten to Florida, but is send ing most of tho news to his “biggest boss,” tho New York Herald. Atlanta politicians are reaching out for all the offices in Georgia to be given away byl’lldon. They will not contain a chromo, hence somebody will be disappointed. (•eorgetown Wants t Retrocede. A moettng of tho citizens of Georgetown was held Friday night, when the subject of ft government for the District of Colum bia was discussed. Speeches were made by tho prominent business men of the city, and it; was strongly urged that the old form of government bo given them. A resolution wits introduced favoring re trocession to Maryland. The meeting was spirited, and the committee previously ap pointed were directed to lay tho result of this meetiug before the Commissioners to frame a government for the District. Georgetown was originally opposed to secession, and we expect she had better stand by Uie decision she made in 18G1, and not secede. If she does it may not be im probable that we “rebels” will have to whip her back into the Union, and recon struct her. She belongs to Columbia and must stay there, even if she does not get any of the offices. —An English lady has bequeathed her body to the surgeons, but they are not to have Jt until after she (gets through with Nt tCMBE NI PKKIOR COURT.

The Savannah correspondent of the “Irish American" of Now York, In Its Is sue of the 11th Instant, uses the following well merited remarks in reference to the above association: The gentleman who visited my family on seeing uiy two children dead—shed tears, and showd a sympathy far more tender than many of my own country men would show; with a heart as gentle as a woman’s, yet as bravo as a Bayard; a man of strict, unbending recitude, In whom justice, promptness, Integrity and honor are combined, such was our dally visitor, Col. Charles H. Olmstead: Col. Olmstead was most favorably men tioned by the Georgia press for Governor of Georgia. He Is beyond doubt one of the most dlstinguishedjinen who ever drew a blade in defense of his State, and In place exactly what the correspondent above quoted, describes him. Georgians will oil hall the day when Col. Olmstead permits his name to go be fore the people as a candidate for Gover nor, for at once wo would have ability, dignity, chivalry and Christianity com bined In the Gubernatorial chair. We hope the day Is not far distant when Osorgluns may claim his services. A number of his old soldiers here remember him with pride as the gallant leader of the Ist Savannah volunteer regiment. For Clerk ot the House. Mr. Eugene |P. S]>eer, of the Griffin News, Is a candidate for Clerk of the House of Representatives, and the House will do well to elect him to fill the posi tion. He is fully competent and well qualified,'and it would be much pleasure to see him elected. The LaGrange Re porter in speaking of him says: “There are two excellent reasons why we desire to see Mr. Speer elected, and why he should bo elected. One of these is that he is perfectly acquainted with the duties of the office, and is well qualified to fill it. During the last Legislature he was journalizing cleik of tho House, and occupied a similar posi tion, we believe,; In one or two former Legislatures. If he is elected the duties ol tho office will be performed in every respect as they should be, as he is both a competent andjaccurate business man. “The other roason mentioned Jhat cotn mends.hlm to.the good graces and the suffrages of.the members of the House is, that, if elected, ho is determined to havo the work of hie department done with a force greatly reduced from that of the last Legislature. The goughing done by the clerical department of the Legislature has been shameful, and tho office of chief clerk of either house should be given to no man who would not promise to appoint his subordinates with the view of getting the work done with the smallest possible force. This, we understand, Mr. Speer has promised to do; and on this ground and tho other one previously named, we commend him to tho members elect of the next House of Representatives.” (jrajic (Gallicring In Turkey. Correspondents at the seat of hostilities in Servla and Turkey relieve their war pictures with the brighter side of life in the disturbed districts. The men have nil gone to the wars, ami the women are at home carrying on their domestic affairs, apparently in the best possible spirits. There ore no men to be seen, either old or young, in the regions round.about the bat tle Helds. They are all engaged actively in the work of war. This is especially the case in Turkey, which does not look as if Turkey could be symbolized by a sick man. Turkey appears to be in tho best of health, and it is evident that all the male strength of the country will be expended in the struggle, if such a draft Is necessa ry to carry through Turkey’s cause hi Europo. The Turk is evidently not going to tie driven out without a sufficient cause of arms to dislodge him. After witnessing carnage and devasta tion, a London correspondent makes a brilliant picture of tho female home guard in Turkey. It was in tho midst of the grape harvest. The Turkish women had already harvested the wheat and barley and wore gathering grapes. The country was full ot pretty grape gatherers. Except that no men were to be seen, there were no evidences of the carnage hovering noar and tho devastation almost within sight. The Turkish damsel dons her attire, plaits her hair with grand ribbons, fastens to iior head dress pieces of gold if she be rich, or copper if poor, and goes forth to tho grape gathering. Every now and then they break forth Into snatches of songs, then peals ofilaughter follow, and all seem careless of the fate of their fathers and husbands, and brothers and lovers, in the deadly strife. They are gathering grapes for a festival of vietory or a funeral.—Sl. Louis Republican. Fattening Fowls In Two Weeks. A writer in the London Field states that poultry properly fed will acquire all the fatness needed for marketing purposes In a fortnight, or throe weeks at most. Their diet should bo Indian, oat or barley meal, scalded in lhtlk or water; tbe former is the best, as it will expedite tbe fattening process. They should be fed early in the morning, at noon, and also in the evening just before going to roost, and given a plentiful supply of pure, fresh water, and plenty of gravel, sliced cabbage or turnip tops. If the fowls are required to be very fat, some trimmings of fresh mutton suet may bo chopped up and scalded with their other feed, or they may be boiled in mlik alone and poured to the meal This ren ders the iiesh firmer than it otherwise would be. When fit to kill, feeding must be stopped for twelve hours or more, so that the intestines may become compara tively empty. FRAGMENT*. —’Tui |KX>r boy" Was rouud yesterday with hi* stump lightwood.

THE SALE OF HIS EFFECTS IV) PAY ANN ELIZA’S ALIMONY. Salt Lake Herald.) Yesterday morning the special commis sioner, Dr. A. K. Smith, sold the proper ty of President B. Young, levied upon to make Ann Eliza’s alimony j>endenle. life. The salo took place In front of Mulloy’s stable, Mr. Fred Carter acting as crier. A large crowd gathered to witness it, but their were few bidders, people evidently being afraid of buying a law suit. Pre vious to the sale, Mr. James Jack, acting as agent for President Young, warned the public against buying the property, as the defondant in the divorce case (Young) proposed to commence suit far tho recov ery of.the articles seized and sold by the commissioner. The properly was knock ed down as follows: Large close corriago, $375, to James A. Fitzgerald; Kimball car riage, $125, Patrick Lannan; victorlne, S2OO, 8. Bamberger; Studebaker carriage, $52.50, J. M. Allen; lumber wagon, $25,8. Ilatnberger; wagon, $27.50, J. E. Tyler; wagon, $25, 8. Bamberger; span of mules, $125, R. P. Lounsbery; Concord harness, $25, R. P. Lounsbery; span of horses, $l3O, J. M. Miller; cow, S2O, Mclntyre. The sum obtained was sl,l7s—not over a a fourth of the.actual value of the prop erty. Under the order to the special commis sioner to sequester and sell property un til alimony award Is made, we understand he proposes to make further levy on de fendant’s goods, and proceed to sell as in this case. The defendant’s agent, after the sale yesterday, made a formal demand on the purchasers for the release of the property, and subsequently suits of replevin were commenced in the district court for the recovery of tho goods. Chief Justice Schaffer instructed the clerk of the court not to Issue summonses In the suits, but It Is improbable that the Judge’s action was the result of a misunderstanding, as he would scarcely assume to prohibit a party bringing suit In such a case. There can be little doubt that tho summonses will be Issued to-day, and the subsequent disposition of the suits will be a matter for consideration when they get before his honor in the ordinary manner. Thero is a diversity of opinion as to the legality of the sale. Many excellent at torneys say that It "won’t hold water;’’ that the commissioners can give no good title to the property. However, as all thatShas. been disposed of Is of a perisha ble nature. Its value to defendant will be lost unless he regains early possession of It; henoo the sale may be Illegal, and the result still prove disastrous to the defendant. If this generation cannot un tangle and straighten out the vexed Ann Eliza question, probably tbe next may, so the country, is.not left.without hope. To the Public.

State and county elections, and which will undoubtedly be the moat active and hotly contested of any since the memorable cauvass of 1860, is now fairly opeued. The Na tional Democratic Party will this year make a bold, vigorous, and doubtleaa auceessfuJ strug gle for tho maintenance and supremacy of those principles which are vital to the prosperity of the Republic and essential to the well-being of the people. In addition to the Presidential election, the people in Georgia and Florida will elect new State governments, lu Florida the campaign promisee to be unusually vigorous, and there is a probability that for the first time since the war the people of that Radical-ridden State will elect a Democratic State Government. In these cam paigns the people of the South are deeply inter ested; and everv intelligent citisen, who hae the welfare of his country and his section at heart, should acquaint himself with every detail of the great work of redemption and reform that is now going on. To this end he should subscribe to and assist in circulating the Nnvaunah tlorning^fWN, an independent Democratic newspaper, of pro nounced opinions and fearless In their expres sion ; a paper that is recognized everywhere as the best daily in the South. Its editorial de partment is vigorous, thoughtiul and conaistent, while its news and local departments are marvels of industry and completeness. Its department of Georgia and Florida afiairs is not confined to a mere barren summary ot events transpiring in those States, but is enlivened by comment at once apt, timely, and racy. The ample resources of the establishment will be devoted to furnishing the readers of the MORNING NEWS with the latest intelligence from all parts of the world, through the press dispatches, special tel egrams, and by means of special correspondence; and through these agencies the paper will be the earliest chronicler of every noteworthy incident of the political campaign of 1876.
