ATTEMPTED AssAssrSATIoS At BRUsHyILLT, L. L.
Information brought to the Fifth District Statios-
House yesterday morning, 10 the effect that revolt
ipg murer bad been committed near jamaica aud that
the victim Young farmer named McAllister, who
had been killed and robbed while on his return hoan
from the New York markets. The fact of the whols
matter upon which this rumor was based appears TO
be ss follows, having been obtained from persons
familiar with the case:
II sppears that, on Monday evening, about 100
o'clock David King and Thomas COLLISION, who reside
in Brushviic, about three miles beyond Jamaica
proceeding homeward along the road, when they were
shot at by three men, Of whom had gun, the
other two mad pistols One OF the shots took effect IN
the body of King, producing serious but not fatal
injuries. Aflor the shots fired, the three
iutO the railroad depot and there oil trace of them
lot. One of them was recognized a. Mr.. George
Net, Sy Mr.. Collision, who followed him into tho
d. pot. TIE ARRAY caused great deal OF excitement
rbout the village, and from tho tact that Mr. John X
Shorter known to b. companion Of Nett, and also
from the fact that Of til, assalans was dressed
similar TO Shorter led to the suppoeition that he WI
one Of the three parties lIe was accordingly
rested and taken before Justice Pearsa at jamaica
when, abb being clearly proven, he was honorably
discharged. None Of the parties had been arrested
up to last evening. King aud Collison live in ono
house, and were proceeding home ward at the tune.
There are some seven bncb shots 10 Mr.. Kings body.
The supposed cause of the attempted assassination
appears to be this Thomas and John Collision
brohers married one the daughte and the other tbe
granddaughter Of wealthy gentleman name Nett,
who, il Is understood, was violently opposed 10
the union. On his decease he left his dsugh-
ter and granddaughter only $3.50 each out Vi
an INN. nse fortune. This wss the of
some domestic dficntes, in consequence Of
which an application for divorce WAS made by tho
wife Of Mr. Thos COLLISION Mr. David King, it appears.
i. an important wnes, in this st the part Of tho
husband to which may probably be attributed tho
attempt to deprive him Of life. The heirs oft'e estate
tested the validity Of the will Of Mr.. Nett, ST. which
was set aside, and an order made dividing the prop
erty equally between all the heirs, by which soms
$50 eco would fell to each child. Tho officers are IN
the track Of the perpetrators Of the outrage.
The ByooHyn Star, iaely an American paper, has
decar itself in favor Of the Republican State ticket.
