The Bedford Tragedy.

From a gentleman who arrived in the city on
last evenings train learn some further partic-
ulars of the tragedy which took place at Bedford
on Monday evening. IL appears that Evans s
victim had been attending school at Terre Haute,
and arrived at home on the train from the North
on Monday afternoon. DR.. Newland was absent
in the country on professional calls at the time,
and on arriving at home found his whole family in
the greatest distress and tears. II was learned
that the young lady was cnciente, and that longer
concealment was impossible. She stated further
that while attending the school of which Evans
was a teacher. he had been taking liberties with
her person, which continued for tive or three
years, but was unable to accomplish his Infamous
designs. Finally he threatened her that unles:
she yielded to his wishes he would take means &c
uform her parents OF the liberties he had taken
with her. Under this threat she yielded.
On learning these facts DR.. Newland armed
himself with revolver and dissecting knife and
proceeded toward Evans's house. Before ht
reached there, however he met Bvans on the street
and accosted him, it being quite dark. lie at once
fired bis pistol inhicting terrible wound. and then
drew his knife, cutting Evans terribly abou,
the chin and throat. He died instantly. 1t is be
lieved Evans was aware that Miss Newland had
returned to Bedford, and there was probably trou
bic in store for him, as he was armed with revol
yer, and the moment he was accosted by Newland
attempted to draw it.
1t is scarcely necessary to say that DIR. New
lands course is INDICATED by everybody CONVEX
SAINT with the circumstances, except q few bigotst
persons.-Ne,c Albany Ledger.
II EvaEs was guilty of the crime he 10 charged
with above DR.. Newlard did right in Staying him
bat we arc rather disposed to doubt the truth o
some Of the statements, from the fact that Evan
was prominent Union nan, having been one o
the contingent or assist ~ electors ON the Unior
ticket in 1864, and DR.. Newland a prominent Dem
ocra.. The above account as well as others VIZ
have seen are all from Democratic sources, ant
consequently, the statements prejudical to Evans
should be received with many grains of allowance
1t seems strange to US if the case was 50 aggrava
ted that DR.. Newland should even have been In
dicted, but much more that his bail Should hav.
been put at $40 900. We await further develop
msnts before deciding Evans 70 be the monster he
is represented.
Since the above was in type we learn that DR.
Newland has taken 4 change Of venue to Floyd
county. This does not look much like every body
except a few bigots about Bedford justified the
Doctor.

as have been the various sewing machines, from
time to time presented to the public, each one Of
them has been cursed with some radical defect.

The Empire Machine is a marvellous combine

of order, noseless and easy Of operation. Its
mechanical continuance is such to secure sta
bility, freedom from accident, and accuracy as to
workmanship. By the use OF the patented shuttle
and straight needle, it makes stitcE, which can
neither rip nor ravel, while, at the same time, il
can operate perfectly upon every species of materi

inimitable machines. suited alike for family and
manufacturing purposes The Office o: the EN-

these Empire Machines at prices far below the
real value of the instruments.
