About halfpast ore o'clock yesterday morn
ing, as Policeman X. 0Dwyer was in the
act Of lighting city lamp on the corner Of
Seventeenth and Green streets, he discovered
a negro passing along with bundle in his
hands, and supposingits contents were stolen
he jumped down and demanded Of the fell
low TO know what he had there, whereupon
he replied, 9 here it is" and simultaneously
Herewith fired two barrels Of q revolver

and body Of Mr.. 0Dwyer, and the other
through his hat. The rascal then took TO his
heels and was fred at twice, one load, il is
supposed, striking him, as an agonizing
scream was heard Immediately upon the dis
charge Of the second shot Some how or
other negroes are very generally supplied
with arms, and we advise the police. when
ever approaching any Of them for the pur-
pose Of arrest, to be on their guard, ready 10

An Elegantly Dressed Young woman
Found Dead I'm the streets.
Special Dispatch to the Louisville co,uisrI


CINCINNATI, Feb. Is, P.M
This morning, about 7 O'Clock, as a Jour
neymall blacksmith was going 10 the shopon
the corner Of South Court street and Market
alley, between Main and Sycamore stress,
he discovered a young woman, apparently
about twenty-five or twenty-three years old,
lying in the alley. He approached her and
discovered that blood was oozing from her
mouth, and quite a large pool was clotted
and almost frozen near her head He i'm
mediately gave the alarm and crowd Of
persons collected about the awful sight.
The woman was well dressed and clothed
in clean garments throughout, but one Of her
knees was scratched and bruised and the
stocking on the same leg was discOloFed and
partly torn, which led them 10 believe that
she had been dragged TO the place where she
was found. The skirt Of her dress, which
was Of elegant and rich material, was COM
pletely torn from the waist al il a terrible
struggle had taken place. One Of her gloves
was found near by, and the entire scene was
evidence enough TO cast suspicion that foul
play had been perpetrated. The Coroner
was summoned this morning 10 hold an in
quest butBo testimony could be secured that
had tendency TO explain or solve the affair
and he ordered the body TO be conveyed 10
an undertaker's and adjourned the jury to
Tuesday evening next. Tia mystery creates
a sensation.

THE LABOR SYSTEM IN MIDDLE
GEORGIA.

An intelligent gentleman, writing to the
Augusta Constitutiondlia on this subject,
says:
1t has become evident that the older sections Of
Georgia. especially the :. Black Belt" as Middle
Georgia was formerly called, will. in the course OF
a few years. be drained, not only of their surplus
labor but Of that which will be necessary to the
cultivation Of the soil. Without any interpolation
of the Freedmens Bureau. such q result must
sooner or later be consum mated Following the
immntable and irresistible law Of supply and de-
rrfsrd free labor viii go wheret Is most valuable
On the rich prairies Of the West and on the allu-
viOns of the Mississippi negro labor il more prof
liable and better in other respects than white; but
on the lands Of Upper Georgia and throughout all

the mountains and the low country" from Vir-
ginia to the Mississippi white labor must take the
place Of black. and as the Freedmen's Bureau
only hastens the emigration of the negro west
ward so il becomes those who wish for the future
welfare and prosperity Of Gcorgia 70 hasten 80 far

EMIGRATION FROM THE ,SoUTB.-It is
said that as many az fifty thousand young
men from the Southern States have settled
themselves in New York city to seek their
fortunes. Many have gone to Baltimore,
and we presume that there Is scarcely n
Northern city Of any magnitude that does
not number such Representatives Of the
South among its population. The universal
stagnation and paralysis Of business that
succeeded the war; the scarcity Of money,
the impoesibility Of getting employment
and the gloomy future all coDspired to in
duce many Of our active and energetic young
men to remove TO places where money was
plentiful and employment attainabIc. There
also arose two formidable schemes that
threatened, and still threaten, 70 drain the
South OF her populatica-not only Of that
valuable portion Of her population, con-
sisiing of active and enterprising young men,
but Of whole families-almost Of commune
ties. We refer 10 the Brazilian and Mexi-
can emigration schemes.-Riekmoad Wing.

HONORABLE" JOHN MoRRIssEY.-
Morrissey has been elected to Congress in
the Fifth District of New York, having more
votes than both candidates who ran against
him. The persons who voted for this man
mad not the excuse that ii was necessary
for them to do so in order to maintain the
party supremacy. Nelson j. Taylor. a
Democrat, the present member from the
ulstrlct, and respectable man, was the on
posing Democratic candidate. The vote
gwen to Morrissey would have elected Tay-
lor and saved New York from great scan
dal. Bnt the majority in that city evidently
has no objection to a man upon account of
ms vocation As notorious pugilist their
iiavorite for Congress attracted their attention
long ago, and they are glad to have the op-
portunity Of doing honor to one whose tai
ents are in his fists. At present it is said
that Morrissey has retired from the prize
ring, and that he would not under any in
ducement, maui man again. His more
recent business, as keeper of faro bank
and general gambler, seems not to dis
qualify him from participating in the coun-
ellis OF the nation, according to the views
of the voters of the Fifth District of New
York. He is envied for his success, and how
he made his money is no difference so long
as he has it.
1t is great disgrace TO the country, that
pugllist and gambler, should be sent to re-
present great city in Congress. But tho
fact that such man can secure a nomina-
ton and election, proves! that he represents
constituents as destitute of decency and
honesty as he. We presume that the Hon.
John Morrisey will not make much of a
fgureat Washington. His own party will toll
crate him for the sake of hts vote, but among
the opposition he cannot hope to mingle
with social equality. He will enjoy his
privileges very much to himself, and is not
likely to be annoyed with too much conf
panY. If the disgrace were that of New
York alone, the metropolis" might bear all
the blame. But foreigners will not fail to
point out this election of a bully and gam
bier to one of the highest offices of State as
proof that free suffrage is dangerous
thing, and as an evidence that Republican
institutions are subservise of honesty, mo-
rality, and public virtue. = Philadelphia

SOUTHERN LoYALrY.-Mr A. Bradshaw
was q candidate for Congress from the lid
District of Texas at her late election. We
do not know how he Jared; but this is the way
he tried TO gain votes:
Promising that he was a Rebel and is now
a Jealous JOhnsonite, who cannot of course
take the oath prescribed by law, he says:
81 regard the laws passed by Congress at
the last session, commonly called the Freed
mans Bureau Bill and the Civil Rights Bill.

and at war with the spirit and genius of the
Government, and if am elected, no effort
on my part shall be spared to repeal them.
81 had the honor to be a member of the
late State Convention, and upon the deyelop-
melt Of a Radical feeling in that body. |
took determined ground against it. The
Radical element sought to strike the word
tohite out OF the ordinance regulating the
school fund thus placing the benefits of that
fund within the reach OF negro children.
/ opposed that proposition. This fund had
been provided years ago for the education of
the white children of the State and they had
a vested interest in 1t. Thousands of chill
dren orphaned by the war had to be educated
at the public expense, and TO have divided
this fund with the negro population would
have seriously embarrassed the State in its
laudable efforts TO place the benefits of
common school system within the reach of
those who are wards Of the State and whose
fathers lie dead upon the field OF honor"
