The Case Of Mr.. Emerson Etherldge-
Letter from Gen. Thomns.

NASHVILLE, July 2s. - This mornings
Press publishes letter from Gen. Thomas to
Gov. Brownlow. Gen. Thomas says:
al am only awaiting report from Col. De
Russey to determine my course rs to Emerson
Etheridge. II no has been guilty Of the Ian
guage charged against him he is clearly
amenable to the military authorities, in the
absence Of the civil authorities, and liable to
be tried before Il military commission.
my attention has been called to the
speeches Of other parties, bnt as yet | have
not seen any report that would justify the
interference Of the military authority. IT.,
however, there be in the judgment of the
Government, at any time, necessity for such
an interference, in consequence OF the ina.
bility or indisposition on the part of the civil
authorities of the State to take action in the
expression Of such desire on the part of
the Government, the stating of such inability
or indisposition of the civil authorities to act
will be sufficient, and will cause the parties
complained of to be attended to according to
the nature of their case.
"The State of Tennessee Is under martial
law, but the military authority will not be
resorted to unless the civil authority fail To
act, either from inability or indispositiOn'
Even in the event OF failure Of the civil au.
thOrities to do their duty, the military should
refrain from interfering in all minor cases
because the military should, so far as posi-
BILE, sustain the civil government, and never
assume its functions except in cases in which
prompt action is necessary to insure public
| safety.
"in conclusion, the Governor may be as
sured that he will be fully sustained In car
rying out the policy Of the State and Genera
Governments so long as troops are on duty
| in this State"
Governor BrownlOw has called upon Gen
eral Thomas to send troops in the varioul
counties, to preserve order and the purity oi

HAIL SroRn.-Just as we were preparing
to go to press terrible storm passed sud
denly over the city, made up in about equal
proportions of thunder, lightning, rain, hail,
and wind.
The hail smashed the skylights in every
direction the wind blew down awnings aud
signs, which went floating along the torrents
formed in the streets.
The mercury in the thermometer in our
office fell six degrees in ten minutes. But
that which is violent is not permanent, and
the storm was of but short duration.

SOLAR EcLrPsE.-The eclipse of the sun
which occurred on the 25th of April-invisi-
bic here, but visible in South America and
Africa-was attended by interesting phenOm'
ena. Tho darkness is described as some
thing fearful. A BuenOs Ayros paper relates
some striking and few dangerous adveptures
connected with the event. Laborers in the
field were completely bewildOrOd, and wan
dered about in the darkness, unable to find
their way home. One gentleman who was
driving in his carriage lost his way, and just
managed to pull up on the brink of a preci-
pice, twenty feet perpendicular down which
his horse was about to plunge. Farmers put
their sheep in the corales, thinking 1t was
night and in some quarters the dreadful
gloom caused the deepest alarm among the
more ignorant classes.

Horace Maynard Nominated to Con-
.H gresa.

. NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 27.-Hon. Horace
Maynard was unanimously nominated for
Congress in the Knoxville district to-day,
and made n speech accepting the nomination.
One of the most horrible tragedies eyor re-
corded was enacted here this evening, re-
sulting in the murder Of Captain NJ. S. Allen,
by II. B. Payne, and the wounding of citi-
zen named Cochrane. The circumstances
are rs follows: About one year ago Allen Sc
duced Payne's wife. Last winter Payne sued
for and obtained divorce from his wife, but
swore he would kill Allen. About 8 O'Clock
this evening Payne met Allen at No. 81
South College street, and Immediately drew
n revolver, firing three times, the first shot
taking effect in Aliens shoulder. The sec.
ond shot missed Allen and wounded Coch-
rane severely in the hand and thigh. The
third shot broke Aliens third rib on the left
side, passing through his heart, and, Of
course, caused instant doath. The affair
caused great excitement, rs both parties were
among the Oldest and wealthiest citizens.
Payne is in Jail awaiting his trial.

Trial of General Lee and other Omcers
Of the late Confederate Army.

1t has been repeatedly stated, and general
ly believed, though never officially "n-
nounced, that General Lee and other officers
of the late Confederate army were indicted
at the last term of the United States Court
for the Eastern District of Virginia, held at
Norfolk. At the next term Of this Court, to
be held in Norfolk in October, it is said these
indictments will be called up; but II is un.
derstood in Washington that these cases will
not be prosecuted, but the President will di-
rect WOlle pr0SeqWtS to be entered, and dis
pose of each defendant as he proposes to dis
pose of other leading Southerners who have
been active participants in the war namely,
by putting them on long probation, and then,
as a condition precedent to pardon, imposing
such penalties and restrictions as may be
justified by the circumstances. IL Richmond
