HoRRIBLE AFFRAY-ONE MAN KILLED

HORRIBLE AFFRAY-OEE Man KILLED
--THE MURDERERs IN JAIL-Saturday
evening about dark, an old man named
James knight, his son Joseph knight,
and three other men who live ten miles
west on the Paris road were returning
from this city When near the residence
OF John Goodman, four miles of here,
they passed another wagon in which
we're Jordon Greasy, his wife, easy
Greasy, NJ. Van Greasy, James Black
and Pleasant Noel AS they passed, the
latter party hallowed to them to stop
The former not doing so, one of the
Greasy ran ahead and caught the reins
Of Knights horses, and the others com
menced throwing stones and other mis-
siles knocking two Of the men in Knights
wagon senseless. knight then got out
of the wagon, when the williams went at
him with their knives, cutting him on the
head, face, arms and abdomen in most
horrible manner, from the effects of
which be died yesterday afternoon.
Joseph Knight, going to the assistance
OF his father, was cut in several places,
but his wounds, although severe, are not
dangerous.
The Williams then went on towards
home. In the meantime the neighbors,
attracted by the sffrsy, collected to the
number Of some twenty-five, and gave
pursuit. About four miles from the
scene of the ARRAY the assaulting party
was overtaken. They made no resist
ance, and were brought back. Yester-
day they had an examination before
Morgan B. Jared, q Justice of the Peace,
in Sugar Greek township, who held the
men in several sums to answer at the
Circuit Court. Noel obtained bail, and
the Creasys and Black were brought to
the jail here yesterday evening.
The wife of Jordan Greasy, who is the
principal prosecuting witness, was held
to appear in the sum of 81 1000, which
security she failed to obtain, was also
placed in Jail
John P. Baird appeared for the prose-
cution, and William Mack for the de.
/ fence.
We understand two of the Creasys
have been in the rebel army, and the
others are Of similar stripe Wabash

ATHENEUM.-The brief engagement Of Miss

ATHENEUM.-The brief engagement Of Miss
Dora Shaw closed last night, not as remunera-
lively as should hare been the case, but afford
ing her ample opportunity of showing herself
the consummate actress that she undoubtedly
is. 1t is not saying too much to repea. that no
one has ever appeared on the Cairo boards who
has so truly made herself mistress ofthe beautiful
phases of her art. There may be actresses of
more physical power, but none of more truly
dramatic excellence, or capable of illustrating
those delicate portratures that require exquis-
ite taste, and the concentration Of refined and
elegant culture. 1t will be long before Cairo
will have the opportunity Of apprecating an
artist of such merit and attainments.
The stock company fall back upon them
selves this evening, and produce the pathetic
nautical drama OF Black Eyed Susan, with Miss
Pennoyer as the heroine, Miss Lewis Dolly
Mayflower, and Mr.. Flemming as William.
The rest of the characters are well dis
tributed, and pleasing performance may
be safely promised. With the agree
able comic pantomime of The Brig
rands, ..and the farce of the Pheasant Neigh
bors,'' 4 variety entertainment may be ex-
pected and enjoyed. The stock company will
show forth this evening in their best colors,
and will be disappointed should their offering
not meet with popular appreciation.

NEW York, Oct 2O-We learn from the
Merchants Express Company, of this city,
that the cargo of the lost steamer Atlanta
consisted of LIS bales cotton, 300 boxes OF
candles, and one case of merchandise. Her
passenger list included Miss Wolf O. Livings-
ton, Capt, Wilson, Chas. S. Smith, D. Myers
and lady, H. H. Maloney, W. F. Lindsey, D.
Dexter, and Robert Collie.
Four boats left the smoking craft, one of
which contained three ladies, child, and
other passengers. This capsized and all were
lost. Two other boats, in which were Capt.
Williams and crew, were upset soon after leav-
ing the ship. The fourth boat got of with four
persons, and is thought may reach land. Those
who arrived here were saved by clirging to the
after part of the ship.

Resolred, That we will discourage and dis.
coun,enance the discussion of any and al ques-
tions calculated to keep alive feelings of ami
mostly and i'll. will, and to do all in our power
TO promote amicable and harmonious relations
among the people.
The above resolution was adopted by the
people of Montgomery county, Tenn, in con-
vention assembled, and provides material from
which the Radicals of the country can obtain
valuable information as to the feelings, desires
and intentions of the Southern people. The
trainers thereof acknowledge in so many words
their errors of the past, and not only declare
that in the future they will be law-abiding peo.
pie, but that they will do all that in them lies
to discourage and discountenance discussions
relating to the past out Of which accrimo.
nious feelings might be eugendered.
The resolutions too, have more than a local
bearing. They not only appeal to the nobler
impulses of the Southern people, but to the
charitable and Christian feelings of Northern
citizens. They breathe the true spirit ofpatriot-
ism and give expression to sentiments which
SAVIOR .strongly of earnestness and sincerity.
The past cannot be recalled and the tragic
events o: the last four years form part Of his
tory As should the people O: the North, those OF
the Southern States wish the fearful and bloody
memories associated with the war aud which
stain our National record obliterated, and a
new era of fraternal feeling and friendship cs-
tablished They manifest but little sym
patty for the reasonable spirits who inaugural

off the earth many Of our and their best cit.

themselves to be carried into the vortex of rebel.

true to the Uuion, and surrounded during the ex-
stence of the war by patriotic influences to for
give them for their political Offences as their
accusers wish to be forgiven for their moral
transpressions. What are the common dictates OF
humanity in the premises? What is to be
gained by longer continuing the unhappy strife?
Will it cause the filling of one vacant chair?
Will it restore desolated homes, bind up bro
ken hearts, provide fathers for the orphans or
husbands for the widows? Will it repopuate
devastated towns and cities, or depopulate Gem
eteries? Will 1t enhance our agricultural inter-
ests. or those Of mechanics or the arts and
sciences? Will it not rather have the effect of
tear ng open fresh wounds which should be al
lowed to heal and add fuel to a devastating
