Tue MvRprR or Mn. SrRAour-Tho
chain of circumstantal evidence which con
meets the two Gordons with the murder Of Mr.
Spragne grows stronger, and il is now the set
tied opinion that they are The guilty parties.
Yesterday, William Gordon, brother Of the
other two, and Michael O'Brien, were arrest
ed and committed O'Bren was seen in COM
pany with the Gordons on Sunday, and was
known TO have had difficulty with Mr.
Sprague. Robert GorGon, another brother
was arrested, but dischargod, it not appearing
that he had bacn to Cranston or had had any
communication with his brother. The moth
or Of the Gordons has been arrested.
The swamp near the spot of the murder, and
III which tracks were found leading f.om thai
spot, has been thoroughly explored. a coat
marked with blood was found in it, and gun,
much battered aud broken in two. The gun
has been identified as belonging to Gordon (;
The piece Of the stock fouad near the spot Of
the murder, was evidently broken flom it, and
hts into il. The coat has not been identified
hut II has hole in the elbow. and Il shirt
found in Gordon's house has "a bloody stain on
the sleeve corresponding with The hole in the
coat -.
The house Of Nicholas Gordon ha, been
searched, and anIcr bed were found two
pairs Of pantaloohs and one or two vests, tho.
roughly wet, and with the appearance of hay
ing been IN that condition for II considerable
tlmo. pair Of bon,s was also found wet, and
appearing TO have been ribbed. In the pock-
cts Of the vest were bullets, percussion caps,
aud gunpowder, the latter corresponding with
the kind in the pistol found near the scene Of
murder. On the vests wore spots of blood +,
aud one of tho sheets on e bed was also
marked with blood 81 "
Two men were soan going towards The fatal
spot shortly before the murder. Two men
were seen TO emerge from tho swamp on tho
other side after the deed had been committed /;
ono of them without his coat Close to The
tracks of a man found leading 10 the swamp,
were tracks Of dog. Nicholas Gordon owns
a ferocious dog, which was found in his shop
by officer Shaw, who forced tho door. This
dog wears collar Of Jagged metal, and some
ofthc wounds upon Mr.. Sprague are such as
would be made by such n collar on dog
sprnging at his throat. The dog is in posses.
sion Of the officers.
The woman contradicted in some respects
the testimony of William Gordon. She said
that the wet clothes, under the bed, were
washed month ago. She said tho dog was
in The shop all day Sunday, but she did not
have the key ofthe shop. This was kept by
Nicholas Gordon.

Most AtrOciOus Murder

II is with the deepest pain we have to
record the awful death Of AMAsA
SPRAGuE, Esq, of Cranston, senior
partner in the extensive manufacturing
house Of A. j. w. Sprague, who was
wilfully and cruelty murdered on his
farm yesterday afternoon. He LEFT his
house about 3 o'clock to 20 to portion
Of his farm lying in Johnston, for the
purpose OF looking TO the proper shelter
Of his cattle (; and about 8 o'clock he
was found prostrated on the earth dead

The back Of his head A pistol was
found some distance from his body, anc
under such circumstances as to lead Il
the belief that hasty attempt wns made
to conceal it. 1t was reported that ht
had received another wound in The body
but when our informant left, the Coro
ner's verdict had not been rendered, ant
we cannot, therefore, state it is a fact.
This announcement cannot fail e
create great excitement in our communi

our city, his immense business relations

energetic, successful merchant, he ha'

Register of the 9th instant contains the
following letter addressed by Mr.. Clay
to a committee Of the Wings of Green

ASHLAND, 10Th November, 1913.
Gcniiemen-I have received your
friendly letter in behalf Of a large and
respectable number of the citizens Of
Greene county, rendering me the hospi-
talities ofthat county and Of Greenville, +,
and a public dinner. ] am highly honor
ed by this kind invitation, which ] ap-
preciate the more from the frank expos
ure of the prejudces which once existed
against me, in the minds Of many of my
fellow -citiZens of Tennessee, their eau
ses, and their final removal as described
in your letter. These preludices, gen
tlemen, were not pee ular To Tennessee.
When they ragged, in their greatest vio-
lence, conscious Of their injustice, ! felt
convinced that the day would come when
my countfymen would be fully persuaded
that had served them with zeal, lnteg
rity and fidelity. That day has come
and rejoice that a mercilul Providence
/ has permitted me 10 survive the calum-
MES that were put forth TO crush me. And
rejoice also that magnanimous Ten
ncssee stands pre-eminent in devotion
to truth, to justice, aud to the repara3 3on
Of unmerted injury.
/ | should be most happy, gentlenep
to make to you and my iellow-citlZSfs
OF Greene county, in person, my gra!A
iul acknowledgements, and TO partake of
the hospitality, which you have done
me the honor to tender but ! regret
that business has compelled me to take
n route TO North Carolina, in fulflment
of my engagement to visit Raleigh, diff
ferent from that which you supposed.

respected, is shot down on bis own farm,
IN the open day, on public thoroughfare,
and within sight and hearing Of Inhabited
houses, it brings home to every man,
with fearful force, the insecurity of life
and tho audacity Of crime. The ques-
ton rises to every mans lips, who will
be The next victim
Since the above was written, we learn
that Nicholas S. Gordon and his brother,
John Gordon, Irishmen, were arrested
yesterday afternoon on suspicion Of hav-
ing been concerned in the murder. They
were brought before Henry l.. Bowen,
ESQ.,, Justice Of the Peace, and com
miited for examination at a future day. -
The grounds Of suspicion are as follows :
Nicholas 5. Gordon has frequently peti-
toned the town council Of Cranston for
a license for the sale Of ardent spirits, but,
through the opposition of Mr.. Sprague,
his petitions have been refused. At the
last time his application was rejected, he
threa eatened Mr.. Sprague, and said he
"wonld settle it with him elsewhere. y
He has been seen repe atcdy, within the
last week, with a gun in his hand, neal
where MIR. S. was found. His premises
have been searched, and no gun can be
found on them, although il is well known
that he had one. A bayonet, cartridge.
box, and sword were found. The two
persons arrested are, so far as can be
learned, the only ones Of all the neigh
borhood who have not visited the house
of Dir. Sprague since the murder. l
cannot now be ascertained how far these
suspicious will DO confirmed by testimo
ny.
A reward Of one thousand dollars ha
been offered by the family OF the deceas
ed for the apprehension Of the murderer
A town meeting was held upon the sub
ject IN Cranston, yesterday, at which al
additional reward Of $1,000 was offered

The Madisonian, the Government pa

One hundred and thirty-eight votes are
necessary to an election. The Whigs
having one hundred and eleven, have
to struggle for twenty seven electors. -
The Democratic candidate having sixty
five votes, has to struggle to obtain

any Republican, opposed to Mr.. Clay
