MURDER AND ROBBERY.
A Horrible Highway Tragedy Near
JOhusOnVIlIe.


A terrible discovery was made by some
parties near Jacksonville on Saturday
morning last. In a clump of busheson a road
side about four and half miles from that
place, the dead body of w. NJ. Clemons, an
extensive staye contractor from one OF the
Northern States, was found weltering in
pool of blood, his throat cut from ear to
ear, and his clothing saturated with the
crimson liie-current. Both his hat and boots
were gone, aud there we're evidences of a
struggle about the spot where he was found.
As no money was found upon his person,
it was supposed he had been murdered for
his money, of which he was reported TO
have had a considerable sum about him.
The murder is wrapped in mystery, and
no trace of the murderer has yet been
fastened upon. Clemens had not been long
in this State, and was believed to be from
Pennsylvania.

THEM, l.. a. q. II. M. BANKRUPTCY
QUESTION.
opinion Of am Eminent Lawyer of
Nashville.

From precent indications, if is probable
that the Memphis, Louisville and Clarks-
vile Railroad Company will not soon file
a petition in bankruptcy. The Louisville
and Nashville Railroad Company, eager ly
watching for an opportunity TO gather in"
the property of the virtually deiunet cor
poration, have been anxious to purchase the
road at bankrupt sale, provided complete
control of it could be secured by this means.
One of their attorneys in this city, Francis
B. Fogg, Esq, has advised them that the
franchise, or right to run the road, being In
the hands of the Stale, cannot be purchased
at a bankrupt sale; so that should they
buy the road it could not be used as a
thoroughfare, the Louisville and Nashville
railroad having no right to run it.
The matter will doubtless rest until the
next session of the Legislature, when bill
will probably be introduced, providing for
the sale Of State railroads at auction.
