BLOODY TaAcEpr.-A Texas paper gives ihe fol.
sowisg account of bloody tragedy in Carthage,
Pamela county, on the 22d ult:
]. X. Williams and several of his friends assault.
ed Jonathan Anderson and his sons with double
barreed shot guns, and discharged three shots be.
fore the Andersons returned their fire. The en-
gagement soon became general on both sides. A
man by the name of Jonas Miller was killed dead
on the spot. John G. Turner, merchant of Car
thage, was seriously wounded, and several of the
Williams party received flesh wounds. All of the
Anderson party escaped unhurt After the assail-
ants exhausted their fires, they retreated to the
second floor of Mr. Turner's store room, carrying
with them the killed and wounded. The cause of
the affray was an old feud between Williams and
Anderson. The belligerents have suspended hos.
tities, by mutual consent, for four months.

the sales OF the year will be 10000 hhds. These
are the sales exclusive ofreyews. The total sales
last year were 1858 hhds, and two years ago
they were 23,ls5 hhds. The stock on hand this
wear is estimated at 500 hhds, while that of the
same time last year was estimated at 1000 hhds-
This, it will be seen exhibits very great falling on
It has mot been produced by q decrease in actual
business, but by a large deficiency In the grow
ing crop
In our last yearly staterneni3we estimated this
years crop at iive-eighths ofan average. This has
turned out 70 be correct from all we
have been able TO gather. A great difference ol
opinion existed at tho time In regard to the proba.

tuai information derived partly from planters and
