! The EIIsWOrth Murder.

A few days ago we published a tele-
graphic account Of the killing Of
JAMES SMATHERs, at. Sharpsburg,
KY, by ELLSWORTH, formerly tele-
graph operatorin this city, and after
wards connected with the guerrilla
MORGAN. The. Louisville Journal
furnishes the particulars of the affair
as follows: II as1Asa
Tt appears that on the evening of
Saturday, the 10th inst, Ellsworth
and two other men came into Sharps-
burg for the purpose of having a
spree. They went into gambling
den, and soon were engaged in acgame
of cards with some experts. Smathers
was well, if not intimately. acquainted
with Ellsworth, and endeavored to
persuade him not to- gamble. The
latter was quite under the influence of
liquor, and with obstinacy character
istic of drunken men, would not suf-
fer himself to.he persuaded from the
card table. No harsh words passed
between the parties, and no one in
the room dreamed of the terrible
tragedy thatwas soon to be enacted
in their presence.
After the party had played awhile,
Smathers standing by, a mere locker
on. Ellsworth asked him to go into
another room, where the bar was
kept. and get him bottle of brandy.
Smathers did as requested. He
brought the bottle and set it upon the
table, and, as he turned to close the
door, Ellsworth, without word pass
ing between the parties, drew his pis-
toll, took deliberate aim, and fred, the
ball taking effect just beneath the left
shoulder-blade, passing through the
heart. and killing poor Smathers al
most instantly. -.,1s,. .sa
After the commission of the horrid
crime, Ellsworth and his two compan-
ions left the house, mounted their
horses. and galloped out of town, fir
ing upon all citizens in sight. A
posse of the latter Immediately armed
themselves and pursued the murderer
and his comrades, firing upon them,
and finally capturing the two compan-
ions, but the assassin made good his
escape. He fed to Fayette county,
where he was captured a few days ago
and lodged in Lexington jail. We do
not remember eyer having to record
more cold-blooded murder, and,
while we deprecate, in any case, the
people taking the law into their own
hands, yet, we do not know that we
would shed many tears were we to
hear that Judge Lynch had awarded
Ellsworth the doom he SO richly de-

1T is gratifying to know that the
Union party of Kentucky challenges
the respect of its opponents in the
outset. They are not to be despised
in numbers, intelligence, and pluck
They rival the rebel or Conservative
organizations. In speaking of them,
the Louisville Journal of WedneS-
day uses the following language:
There is no sense in despising or
affecting to despise, the Radical pow
er in Kentucky If the vote for Uni
ted States Senator in. the Legislature
of Kentucky was an indication, or a
proximate indication, of the strength
of parties in this State, the Radicals
are about third of our population.
Well, let us look at the prospect
ahead. Multitudes think that, as
Radicalism seems to be all-controll-
ing at Washington, Radicalism is the
swift-coming power. Humaa nature
is frail, and we all know great many
rush to'the coming power. Sad as the
fact maybe, It'll fact. Well, can the
Conservative people of Kentucky run
two tickets, without the miserable
risk of throwing their State into the
hands of the Radicals?
IF the Union men are true to them
selves, success is within their reach.
even in Kentucky. All that is re-
quired is, that they should organize
and secure candid hearing for the
Union men who may come into their
state to discuss the political issues of
the day. t-sfti q" -''-

PERsoNAL.-The allusion of the
Sentinel to an anonymous letter
said to have been written by
one of the editors of the

untrue, and we are surprised that

Sentinel would abstain from unpro-

such want of courtesy.
