DESPERATE FIGHT WITH FIVE RUNAWAY NEGRoEs.-
On Thursday night last five negro men, whe belong
to a Mr. Small of Pamela county, passed by Able
vile. and after proceeding short distance killed
goose and went into dense underground thlcket,
kindled fire and proceeded to pick it. young
man named Barry, who lives at Abbeville in eompa-
nv with another man whose name we did not learn,
saw the negroes when going up The track. and after
arrnng themselves with pistols followed after
Through the thicket they saw the fire the negroes
had klnded and as nOiselessly as possible crept up
towards them. When within about fifteen steps OF
the camp Barry tramped on stick which broke
with crack the negroes heard They all simulta-
neousIy broke in different directions one of them
the leader of the gang uncOnsciousy ran right tc
Barry supposing that the negro intended to fight
fired at him, when he wheeled. ran few PAGES and
fell 1t is said that several other shots were fired
after the flying darkies. but with no other effect
than to tree and capture another on the ground
The wounded negro was taken up and brought to
the AbbevIlle depot. where his wound was examined
The ball penetrated bis body and lodged iI his lungs
The wound is terrible, but he was not dead at last
accounts. The negro who went up the tree awled
down and voluntarily came back to Abbeville. Gne
of the two others was captured near the spot the
night afterwards while the fifth was at large at las

JopN KIRrIAxD is gentleman of leisure and taste.
He had the fortune to win the love of fair lady
some three wears ago, and having married her, re-
ouired a support at her hands. This she was en-
abled to give him, as she has voice OF much
sweetness and a knowledge of theatrical matters
which makes her valuable acquisition in that line.
For some weeks past she had been engaged as the
vocalist at the old Theatre, where she is known I'M
der the nom de pttine of Julia Barton. On We'd
nesday, however, her worse half became offended at
her and notwithstanding her engagement at the
Theatre, locked her up in a room, where he
kept her all day. At night the facts being made
known to the Theatre company, a key was procured
and she was promptly released. and as usually filled
her place in the bills At the conclusion of the per-
formances however her irate lord pitched into her
gave her severe beating in the street, and -four
isbed Derlnger, pistol threatened her life etc.
Before these proceedings ended the aforesaid Kirt-
land was arrested and yesterday he arragned be-
fore the Recorder, who fined him SIS for whipping
his wife and SO for carrying a concealed weapon,
in default of which the nice young man was sent to
work on the chain gang for fifty three days HEM
pkiS Enquirer. Sept. A.
The Memphis Bulletin says KIRKLAND subsequently
paid his fine and was released. 1t is great pity
if his wife was fool enough to pay it for him.

thus by force to arrest the legal authorities of Tex

should be resisted. And if you wish TO know what
mean by resistance, or how it should be resisted
say distinctly, it should be resisted by arms.

BEECKNHDGE GIVES IT Ur-Mr Breckenridge, IN
his speech at Lexington, the 9Th. gives it up that
| he will he defeated for the Presidency. He says
But am content with the hOnors which have been
heaped upon me by my State and my country, and
look forward with pleasure TO the prospect have
of serving my country IN the Senate of the United
States for the next SIX years.
The above is o3e of the paltry Misrepresentation
going the rounds of many of the BELL and DOUGLAS
papers. According to the Geographic report Of Nj.
BREcKJNRrDGR's speech, from which the above is
manufactured he used the following language in re
relation 70 the presentation of his name at Balt-
more
=. After the disruption which took place there, my
name without any solicitation on my part, was sug-
rested Not deeming such thing possible, sad
did not desire to be presented TO the American
neople but am content with the honOrs which have
been heaped upon me by my State and my country,
and look forward with pleasure 70 the prosper
have of serving my country in the Senate OF the
United States for the next six years. My name,
however, was presented, and ! felt could not re-
fuse 70 accept the nomination under the clrcum-
stances without abandoning vital principles and
betrayihg my friends
The language in the corrected report of the speech
is:
After the disruption which took place there. my
name withoutany solicitation on my part and against
INV wishes. was presented TO the country for the
Office of President by convention and under cir
cumstances which deserved the most respectful
consideration No man could be vain enough to an
ticipate that his name would be placed before the
country: but having heard that such thing was
possible constantly said that j did not desire to be
presented to the American people, but was content
ard more than content with the honors which have
been hea, ed upon me by my State and country
And looked forward with pleasure to the prospect
of serving OF Kentucky IN the Senate OF the United
Stu tns for the next six years

Garibaidi ana his Prospects.

Unless some unlocked for reverse takes place, says
the New York journal of Commerce, Garibaldi will
soon be in Naples. If he marches up from Beggio
Naples by the ordinary route he viii pass through
the villages in which a colony of Waldenses once
dwelt and flourished, and where they extirpa-
ted in the most horrible manner, in the sixteenth
| century. full account of that heartrendering
transaction readers may in Dr. McCrie's
| History of the Rise Progress and Suppression of
the Protestant Reformation in Italy, in the above
named century.
| Garibaldi will pass near, In case he takes that
road the spot where poor Joachim Murat so unfor-
tunately met his eni in the summer of 1915. That
| gener Gus and heroic man was King of Naples for
years, and was knowledged as such by the Con-
gress of Vienna in 1914 and might have remained
King of Naples to his dying day. But with gen
crosby that not wise, he espoused the fortunes
of his harsh and at times unjust brother-inlaw the
great Napoleon, when he escaped from Elba in the
Spring of 1915. 1t was his intention to produce a
diversion in favor of his brother-inlaw by engaging
the attention of the Austrians. But he was defeat
| ed, fed to Naples and thence by ship to Corsica
| Weeks and weeks afterwards, learning on what he
supposed good authority, that the people in Caabra
were ready for revolution. he landed on that coast
with small band of followers and in the very frs
skirmish he was defeated and taken prisoner! And
although the Congress of Vienna still in session.
the Ausrians, misleading of waiting know the mind
of that body in relation to q man whom it had
recognized to be the King of Naples. tried the cap
tive monarch with court martial and shot him
like dog And what crime had he committed?
None at ALL save that he was making an attempt to
regain his lost crown-whch he certainly had a
right to do fearful day of reckoning for all this
must come We have reason to believe that the ia
nous House of Hapsburg will before lorg find that
the cup of their wickedness and the cup of the suf
ferings of the people whom they have oppressed
now distant.
The Spanish Bourbon Royal race in Naples is, as
far as we can judge, near its end We may expect
to hear very that FRANCIS H., the last King of
his worthless House, has fled from Naples and left
all his fine palaces behind him. But whittier shall
he go? Whittier he go, it may be answered,
but to Austaia Is not the last scion of VAsA's
roval line in Austria Is not HENRY w. Duke of
Bordeax, the claimant of the throne of France, in
Austria? And is not DoN MIGUEL. of Portugal also
in Austria? I'VE are not sure, but think we must
be. for he would hardly continue to make Rome his
home in these troubous times) The Dukes of
Modena and Tuscany are in Austria. If all these
fallen ard disappointed monarchs and princes would,

conjugal differences" which resulted in double
suit for divorce. t
Not long after this squabbe was settled, and the
parties released from the matrimonial yoke, Mad

Electricity was first introduced into the n1edis
cal practice about a century ago, being an abso-
lutte novelty in the healing arts, the proper mode
of employing it could only be ascertained by COM
bining tho study of its nature and properties with
repeated experiments, and these experiments
were conducted by Professors, Medical and Nom
medical of all nations. The study became SO
fascinating and new discoveries daily developed
themselves whose results forcshadowed that when
improvements should be made in the machines,
so as to concentrate the power to be obtained by
the electric fluid, it would make electricity not
to the Mechanical Arts. All the numerous Phi
losophical and Chemical works, magazines, ETC.,
emanating from tho scientific societies in France,
Germany and England, published innumerable
papers on the interesting discoveries. Attached
to these communications we find the names of
Brugnatelli, Fourcroy, yauguelin, Thenard, and
Van Mons, of France; Bcrzelus, Roslz, Bettger,
Erdmann, Ivanberg, and host of others in
Germany; while England likewise had all her
great men in the arena of science. The excite
ment produced, continued. new machines of va
rious forms were constructed and new methods
of application was tried, to reduce medical treat
mcnt by electricity, to a regular system, but till
about the year 1900, when Professor Volta, who
having spent the greater part of his life in study
of this science, completed an instrument which
by combination and arrangement of number
of metallic plates, he obtained the long desired
object by being able to concentrate the electric
fluid, by which means it could be better applied
to the human body, and so Galvanism was intro
duced. In compliment to the Professor, his in
strumcnt was named after him, and that name
will be honored by generations still unborn.
The Voltaic Pile was, is and will continue to
be, the model, based on which every apparatus
applicable for the transmission of the electric
fluid, when used to assist medicine in the cura-
tive art, will be formed.
Those who undertook to introduce Galvanism
at first had to encounter an immense amount of
prejudice, which was but too much justified by
the nutnberless instances of abusive application
of the remedy now first introduced by the scien-
tiic medical practitioners. And thus, Mr.. Ed-
tor, I shall conclude my Second Paper.
Truly Yours, L. l..
