Assassination Of a British consul In GeOT-
gga by n Disappointed Rival.


From the Savannah Republican, July BAL
The town of Brunswick was on Fri
1ay afternoon last, about four o'clock,
thrown into a state of the widest eX-
citement in consequence of IA most trag
nc occurrence, ia which one man lost
his life at the hands of another under
the following circumstances:
As Mr.. il. c.. Westmoreland, acting
British Consul, was sitting on the steps
of his Office, in the afternoon, and at
the time stated--his wife sitting in his
Oflice-and while he was in converse
ton with Judge Marlin, he was APP
preached by Capt. Il. J. Martin, who
was in company with Mr.. Phielstitcher.
When the Captain had come within a
few PAGES of Mr. Westmoreland, he
drew a small pistol from his pocket and
fired a shot at the latter, the ball TAX
ing effect inst above the right groin. ~
Mr.. Westmoreland Immediately arose
and started to walk away, but had only
proceeded n few yards when the Cap
tain fired a second shot, inflicting "A
wound in the central part of the breast.
Mr. WestmOreland at once seized hold
of the Captain, and asked him "What
iihfC D bNFi hOhD " IOus AOu
have shOtl' and began sinking down to
the ground. He never spoke again, and
lived about fifteen minutes.
Immediately after the commission of
the deed, Capt. Martin surrendered
himself to soldier who happened to be
in the vicinity. giving up the pistol,
aud both proceeded to the Ocean House,
where Martin was boarding.
Mr.. WestmOreland and the Captain
were both seeking the hand of daugh-
ter of Col. G. Il. Schlatter, of Bruins
wick--a young lady of rare charms
and highly intellectual ability, and TO
whom MIR. WesimOreland was married
at IL o'clock on the morning of the day
which witnessed the death of her hus-
band. They were to have. visited Sa-
vannah on their bridal tour.
Capt, Martin, the chief actor in this
terrible affair, Is a rice planter, owning
quite an extensive plantation on the
Altamaha river. MIR. Westmoreland
was quite extensively engaged IN the
lumber business at Brunswick, and was
running several saw mills in coniunc-
tion with Gen. Gordon.
Capt. Martin is nephew of General
Edward johnson, of Virginia, on whose
staff he served during the war.

Consumption Durable by DR.. SehCneR s
Medicines.

To cure consumption, the system must b
prepared SO that the lungs will heal. To ac-
cOmplish this, the liver and stomach must
be cleansed and an appetite created for good
wholesome food, which, by these medicines
viii be digested properly, and good healthy
blood made; thus building up the cOnstitu-
ton. Schenek's Mandrake Pills cleanse the
stomach of all bilious or mucous accumula-
tons; and by using the Sea Weed Tonic in
connection, the appetite is restored.
Schencks PulmOnic Syrup is nutriciOus as
well as medicinal, and by using the three
remedies, all impurities are expelled from the
system, and good, wholesome blood made,
which will repel all disease. If patients will
take these medicines according to directions,
consumption very frequently in it's last stage
yields readily to their action. Take the pills
frequently, to cleanse the liver and stomach.

A look of yesrniDg tenderness
Beneath her lashes lies,
And hope of love Vulnerable

AS in some deep unruffi ed stream
Are clouds and summer skies.
She passed - early wOmanhoOd,
From dreamy, sweet girl-lfe,
And crossed the rosy threshold but
To find herself a wife;
OH gently shOuld he lead her steps
Along the path Of life
And as she clasped her small white hands
Upon his arm so strong,
How often, like q summer sigh,
Or q sweet pleading song,
She whispers, with p rting kiss.
Beloved one. don't stay lODgi"
It's almost always on her lip,
Her gentlest parting words,
Sweet as the fragrance from rose leaves
When by soft aphyTs stirred,
And lingering in the memory
Like songs Of simmer birds.
And in his heart they nestle warm,
When other scenes amid;
He STAYS not till she weary grows,
And her fond eyes are hid
In tears which lie in bitterness
Beneath each yelling lid.
And Oh how many heams are kept
By that lOve-utteFiDg song
There's scarcely one who on ife's waves
Is swiftly borne along.
But that has heard from some dear lips
Those sweet wOTds-''DOn't StayLOng.

"A French journal gives an amusing
illustration of the familiar truth that
accounts differ" by careful study
of the Cretan dispatches it las ascer-
tanned that the total loss of the Turks
during the present insurrectiOn has
been one million five hundred thousand
men of the insurgents, forty men. A
similar computation, founded upon the
Turkish dispatches, gives Cretan loss
of three million men at the lowest
figures, against Turkish loss of five.
One does not often have to split wider
difference than that.
