SUSPECTED MURDER.-In q retired part
Of the grounds Of one Of our townsmen,
the heel of On inferred body was yester.
day observed exposed, doubtless, by the
late heavy rains. Further examination
was made and the whole exhumed, the
covering having been obviously slight and
hasty. Certain circumstances induced the
conclusion that the remains are those OF Q
German stranger by the name Of X. T.
Schauck. The clothes served to identity
him. As no money or other valuables
were found, plunder is presumed TO have
been the object of the assassin. A deep
cut, made apparently by dull axe, hoe
or other similar instrument, was apparent
on the upper part Of the body. For res
sons connected with the attainment Of 10;
gal Justice we abstain from giving many
particulars now, it being advisable TO avoid
alarming suspected parties.
The deceased, though he evinced Radt-
cal tendencies, had made himsef much
liked by the few who made his acQuaint-

SHOOTING ArrRAY.--On Saturday last .
shooting affray occurred on Bank street
near Ninth, between Colonel A. G. Dunn
and Captain Williams, both Of whom, It
appears, had been engaged on the Newport
News railroad. From what we, can learn
from bystanders, Colonel Dunn and Captain
Williams met by accident, and having an
old difficulty to settle, proceeded to do 50.
Colonel Dunn fred one shot, and the affair
terminated by the appearance ofthe police
men on. the spot few moments after the
affray commenced. From the statements
it appears that Colonel Dunn was attacked
by his antagonist. Both combatants were
away from the scene Of the fight before the
police arrived, So no arrests were made.

A DANGEROUS sNUIsANCE.-Persons living
in the neighborhood of Chimborazo Hos
pital have complained frequently of care
less and continued firing of muskets by the
negroes living there. 1t is said that at
times the firing is equal to that of skir-
mish line, and that bullets fly about SO
that 1t is unsafe to be anywhere in that
region. A night or two since mother
was sitting at her window with her babe in
her arms, and one of these missiles passed
through the window just over her head.
A citizen on his way home, not long since,
had bullet to pass through his coat-tail.
This is rather close, even when there is
reason for firing guns, but in these times OF
peace, $50 called" it should not only be
prevented but punished. Major Claiborne
has been complained to, but Chimborazoo
being beyond his limits, his hands are tied
in the matter. He has taken his only re-
course-that of communicating the COM
plant to the county authorities; and we
hope that in a reasonable course of time
this nuisance, or rather outrage, fraught
with so much danger to the lives of inno-
cent and unoffending persons, will be not
only abated but punished.
