Fatal RencOntre-Terrible Fight with
Pistols and Bowie Knives.

Fatal Rencontre-Terribie Fight with
Pistols and Bowie Knives.
Z The louisville Courier Of Monday says:
Con Saturday evening one of the blood
lest and most desperate encounters ever
recorded. even in the annals Of Kentucky,
took place in Springfield. Washington
county, between Ben Palmer and w.
Mack Booker. The former was instantly
killed and eth latter is not expected to sur
vive his wounds. There had been some
i'll feeling between the two, arising from
the election Of Booker to the command OF
company that had been raised in that
country to go to Utah. g e'.ssg.ss:a'
The particulars Of the desperate affray
are these The parties met in the bar
room Of a tavern in Springfield, and an
alteration instantly ensued, one or the
other first nsing his fist. Each then drew
a revolver and fred four shots apiece in
rapid succession, three Of Palmer's hit
ting Booker-one in the left hand, Sec
ondin his leg, and third in the left
breast. The first shot fred by Booker
struck Palmer in the groin, penetrating
The badder--a mortal wound. He was
also wounded in the leg. After exhaust
ing his shots, Palmer hurled his pistol
with all his strength against Booker, who
thinking himself moltally wounded, seiz'
ed the other with his left hand by the coat
collar, and throwing away his pistol. drew
bowie-knife and stabbed the unfortunate
Palmer nine times in the breast and body.
The latter fell dead in his tracks, stream
ing with blood at every pore. Booker
may possibly survive his wounds. though
'tis thought the shot in the breast will
prove fatal. gsallE jp9G'lH a'D4
Booker is the son Of Judge Paul Book
er, for many years district Judge in the
State. Palmer is son Of Hon. r. G..
Palmer, ex senator from Washington
county, and grandson Of the late Ben.

The people Of this State had scarcely
got through congratulating each other
upon the fact that the House Of Repre-.
sentatives Of our State Legislature had
refused to concur in the Senate's resolu-
ton for an extra session, when they were
astonished by the intelligence that the
House had reconsidered the vote by which
the resolution had been rejected and then
adopted it. r..
So we are to have an extra session.
Well there may be some good reason for
this course on the part Of our Legislators,
but we think that they will find some diff
iculty in persuading the people that such
is the case. They have decided that
they do not want annual sessions, and, it
strikes us they will not relish the idea Of
their representatives. running counter to
their will as expressed through the bal
lot box last fall. We shall see. M r..

LETTER FROM JOHN c. UNDERWOOD
wrsros, Lewis Co., Va, Jan. 81. 1865.


lfessrs Campbell d 4'DermOt:
The enclosed extract from the last number OF
the Weston Herald, will show you that the
scheme Of emigration, which, from the COM
mencement you have so heartily espoused, mas
already attained fiourishing condition una
all parties here, Democrats and Americans
united in It's favor. With the Americans lirn-
" believe this is one of the best countries in
the world, and if people should consult me rs
to the place of their nativity, / should advise
them to be born among the "Heayen rising
hills" Of Western Virginia. But II from any
cause, they should be SO unfortunate as not to
follow this good advice, we must agree with the
Democrats, that the next best thing will be to
come here as soon as possible after being born.
What is TO be the result of this emigration? OF
this minsling of all the best men of the nations
of Europeg What like causes have Away Ell.
fected,-the production Of,a most intelligent, en-
terpriSing and energetic people Why have our
Anglo. Saxon ancestors been for several genera
ticns pre-eminent among the nations OF Europe?
Because by the5Roman, Danish, Saxon and Nor
man immigration, they had become more mix
ed and crossed than any of the continental ma
tons, and it Is the Improvement OF this noble
stock by yet more mingling and crossing in the
New Word, that has carried the American 3eo-
pie to still higher grade and state Of elevation.
1t is only an illustration of the principle ia
miiar to the farmer and Stock.grower, that
crossing the breed improves the stock.
Nor is this improvement less observable in
the physical than in the moral and intellectual
condition of families and races. Look at those
exclusive and uriStocratic first families, which
with genuine Chinese horror of all outside bar
barians, have married in and in until they are
reduced to single set of ideas, and their chill
dren are not more than half-witted. Could they
allow themselves to be crossed by the introduce
ton of little new blood and few new no.
tions. new vigor aud new combinations of tho't
would be awakened and would honor them by
an immense elevation of purpose and dignity of
character.
These rich and fertile hills with their genial
and healthy climate, are soon destined to show
a grand application of those principles, andit
viii be to you n gratifying reflection, that you
had the courage 70 stand foremost in the cause
of Emigration Yours Truly,
JomN c. UNDERwooD.
