DESPERATE ENCOUNTER WITH FUGIrIyEs
FROM JUsrIcE.-David Wright, indicted in
Muscogee county, Ga, for the murder of de-
putty sheriff Robinson, some time since es-
capped from the Jail of that county, and pro-
ceeded to the house of another fugitive from
justice named Best. The two afterwards
started for Pensacola, and were pursued by
Mr.. Robert Simons, sheriff Munroe, and a
number of citizens. On Christmas day, they
cameinsight of the fugitives, who were travel
ling IN wagon. The Columbus Sentinel
says:
The posse Immediately surrounded the
wagon. At sight of Simons, Wright attemp-
ted to get at a gun, but failing, drew a reyol-
yer and fired just as Simons was dismount-
ing. Simons then presented a double barrel
gun and snapped cap at Wright; Wright
again fired at Simons, this time succeeding in
firing the other barrel of this gun, loaded
with buck shot, few of which took effect in
the lip and cheek of Wright, who made off
to thieket close by, he was headed by Mr..
Munroe; Wright then fired another barrel of
his revolver the shot of which took effect in
the thigh of Mr.. Munroe, but the wound
was not mortal. A dog belonging to one of
the posse now rushed upon Wright, and as
he was about to seize upon him, the bold out.
law shot him through the left shoulders and
disabled the brute. Simons then called out
to Wright to surrender, when he threw M
his pistol and exclaimed, Il give up.' The
sheriff now rode up and Wright delivered to
him his pistol, and allowed himself 10 be
bound.

LIQUOR Illustrated. Thurlow w.
Brown, editor of the Cayuga Chief, recently
Journeyed from Auburn to Wisconsin, and
this is one Of his notes by the way:
Speaking of grog-shops, brings to mind an
incident which occurred at. A young,
well-dressed, gentlemanly appearing man,
with lovely wife and child had iourneyed
on the same train with us from Buffalo. AT
-, in spite of the earnest and fearful pro-
testations of his wife, he would leave the
depot, as he said, 'on business From the
wife's manner, we readily guessed what she
thought his business was. For long hour
she stood, with her boy in her arms, await
ing his return, tears, in spite of all her ef-
forts, silently dropping upon the cheek of
her sleeping child. He came Just as the
train started, drunk. He lurched toward
the platform, fell upon the rail, and his head
was severed from his body. Never in life
shall we forget the expression of the wife 5
countenance, as she stood moment, her fea.
lures pale and ghastly, and then fell sense
less upon the CORY and smoking form Of her
husband. The wall of the fatherless bov
touched every heart. for not one who looked
upon the scene could refrain from weeping.
Had an assassin robbed the wife and child
of husband and father at such a moment,
the enraged populace would have lynched
him on the spot. But he was killed by
authority He died legal death. The
bu'chery was licensed. The price Of blood
was in the rumseller' till. A few pennies
worth of property was saved to him, but a
husband, father and citizen destroyed. The
crushing blow fell upon the innocent and de-
fenceless among strangers. This butchery
is but one Of that host having record in the
history of rumselling. To put an end to
it, we are told, would violate the Constitution
destroy property, and outrage the rights of
the citizen and his domicil! We looked
upon that woman, as she was taken like a
dead one from the headless corpse, her heavy
hair clotted with the blood that had just
Jetted from the pulsing heart and felt fresh
hatred against danihable business and all
its apologists and abettors. I thought of
Seymour, and thanked God that be no ION

and the scourge which burdens them
