A GARD

cannot reconcile it to myself to let the canvass pass by, without callingthe attention of the people to the great injustice done me on the eve of the election; reports were busily circulated in the Southern portion of the coun- ty, that l was for dividing the county also, 1t was constantly told in various parts of the county that was in favor of taxings the peo- pie to build Railroads; both of which is un- true. was also held responsible for the cir culars, containing w. s. Browns certificate and extract from the Little Rock Gazette, which made its appearance in Caroline Town ship on Saturday before the election. I had nothing whatever to do with getting it up, the first knew of it, one was handed to me at Atlanta. Some newspapers and low flung Bun- kun, Wire Workers, seem to take the respon- sibility of saying what they please of man because he is candidate. Sneek behind and cowardly attack with the tongue; misrepresent, insult and traduce his character. No gentle man will offer insult unnecessarily if done ought to be discountenanced by good citizens it is poorly worth ones while that wishes to live in peace, unjustifably by the law to get into troublesome difficulty, on account of the sianderous tongue of fool hardy, reckless, false-brave imposters upon society. beg leave to return my sincere thanks to many warm friends for the deep interest they have taken in my behalf.

 EDITOR CITrzEN-DEAR SIR:-As errone- ous impressions are abroad with regard to the bloody transaction at the Muster ground, in this township, on the 28th ult., in which my son-in-law, John T. Bland and Samuel Shoe- maker were killed justice to the living as well as the memory of the dead, demand true statement of the case, which is herewith sub mitted. 1 wish to do no one injustice but let the truth be spoken if the heavens fall. Sam uel Shoemaker and John Perciful were fight ing, Enoch Jarvis Constable called to the bystandefs to separate them, Bland obeyed the summons and sprang between the parties, and saved Shoemakers life by warding off blow aimed at him by Percifull with knife. Some time after Shoemaker and Percifull were en- gagged again, Bland caught Shoemaker and pull ed him off from Percifull, begging him at the same time to make friends with Percifull, but no sooner was Shoemaker released than he turned upon Bland and struck hin in the face, Bland parried the blows at first, but found it necessary to fight to defend himself, which he did they were soon separated and Bland walked oH and left shoemaker.
 Shortly after, Wm. S. Deadman went to Bland and told him he ought to go and make friends with Shoemaker, Bland replied thathe thought he had best not go about him, as Shoemaker YVES drunk, that he had nothing against the man, but that as Shoemaker was drinking and had hurt him severely, he thought proper to avoid him, and he did so.
 Deadman left Bland and went to Shoemaker, Chad long talk with him." and while they were talking, Shoemaker discovered Bland at some distance preparing to leave the ground, he instantly spTang to his feet and "made at Bland" and was in such rage that he fought furiously all who tried to stop him, Bland see- ing no alternative left but to fight or run, faced his foe and warned him not to advance or he would shoot him. Shoemaker needed not the warning, but rushed on-Bland "backed some distance," still warning Shoemaker-but all to no purpose, when Shoemaker was almost within reach, Bland shot him with his rife gun in moment after, Deadman seized a shot gun and shot Bland in the back, Bland fell without seeing or knowing who was his murderer Some of the parties in this affair were intoxicated, but Bland was not; it is further stated that Bland refrained from shoot ing as long as he could avoid it. He came to his death by trying to make peace, "blessed are the peace makers" "An honest man is the nobest work of God" such in its broadest sense was John T. Bland; he was native of Tennessee-twenty four years of age-had been married about two months; was kind affectionate husband, and was universally es- teemed by all who knew him, he leaves dis consolate widow and host of friends to mourn his fate.
