There is great illumination all night. as

the people there know that it is midnight,

those high ATTITUDES, from summer TO win

seen for five or SIX weeks. Then il comes

mains for ten, fifteen, or twenty minutes,
and then descends, aud finally it does not
set at all, but makes almost circle around

and what they considered day? He
could not say, but supposed they worked

! BLoupY TRAGEDY - Three Men Killed and
Sreyd Wopnded. The town OF Iellyille, in
Marion county, Arkansas, was on Monday
week the scene OF one Of the most frighttul
and disgraceiul fights that VIC have ever
knq"n, Q
We would premise that for many years there
has been waged, between :he 1UtiS and their
friends, on the one part, and the ErereHs and
their friends, on the other, most deadly
teud.
1t seems that a man named Mooney, who
belongs 10 the Everett wing, was badly beaten
some three or four weeks since and that the
Eyeretts and Mooney got up kind OF agree
ment among themselves, by which they aud
their adherenis formed then selves into regu-
latng party, and had declared that The Kings,
Shelf, Williams and Hampton Tut must leave
the country.
On Monday they all met ut Ycilvil.e. -
Hampton Tut has a store there, and was pru-
deut enough 10 keep Out of the way. lie
knew that row would be raised, and that
they would, If possible Kill him. Jesse Turn
or, Esq, spoke that day, aud after the speak
ing, the two parties, armed 10 the teeth, had
some words, aud drew up in battle array-bul
the matter was quleted, and no outbreak took
place Tow ard evening, and when the people
had pretty generally leG for home, the fgh,
commenced Watkins, of the Everett parry
shot down Jack King. At the same time,
Sim Everett fred a, Sinclair and missed him
Sinclair returned the shot, mortally wounding
Everett. Kings brother was shot at by Bart
lett Everett the bali grazing his shoulder; he
in turn shol Bart Everett dead After Sim
Everett was shot, he gathered rock and pur-
sued Sinclair but finding King, who had been
sho, in the beginning OF the fight, he turned
on him and mashed his skull in a shocking
manner, and expired while in the act. King
lived until mornng.
Watkins was badly beaten. He was taken
into custody, but made his escape tina; night.
We fear that the matter is not at an end.

hereby appoint TnuRspAy. the Thirtleth
Day of November instant, to be observed
as day Of Public Thanksgiving and
Praise.
The past year has been the witness OF
many stern aud terrible Providenccs. in
the Divine dealings with the OM world /,
bu, il has seen the same hand vouchsating
muni6c,n, and Distinguishing favors to
us. In those lands civll wars; social
discords fearful famincs and deadly
pes.iIences have paralyzed the hand Of
labor, stopped the wheals Of commerce,
distracted public pence and private soclc-
", aud destroyed many valuable lives !
In our land peace has returned to smile
upon our borders; the people have ENJOY
ed profound repose under the protection
of free Institutions; our vast fields have
teemcd with bountiiul harvest health has
breathed It's energies upon our persons =,
our cities, our towns, our villages have
been alive with the hustle of active labor;
education, arts. science have scattered
their precious seeds broadcast upon the
national mind, and above all the glorious
gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ has ex-
tended its influence, and increased its
power over the hearts of men.
Let us therefore, prepare to present, on
that day, the spectacle ofa State bowlng
in lowly praise at the feet of the King OF
kings. Let us offer to Jehovah the in
crease Of a peoples affection, let us
con-ecrate the day to devout rccolec-
tlons. to humble, intelligent Worship
lorsaking the hives Of industry, the marls
of trade, the shrines Of commerce let
us crowd the temple ofGod There let
US unite glad voices with exulting hearts
in sweet sons Of love aud gra,tude.-
But, amidst our ovs. let us also remem-
ber and weep over our national sins, op-
pressions. p'lde ,covetousness and irrelig-
ion, and also our own personal trans
gresslons. Let us earnestly implore the
Divine forgiveness through the interces-
sion ofour Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ:
And, finally, let US seek Divine Grace TO
protect us IN time TO come, that, under
all circumstances, whether calamltous or
prosperous, we may be a religious, peace
tul and happy people.
Given under my hand and seal Of said
