A FERoCIoUs MCRDKREss.-The Little Rock
(ATk.) Ledger of the 3lst ult. has the following:
Just before dark yesterday evening a horrible
tragedy occurred IN the southern portion of
our city. Such occurrences FREQ "a mt of late
years among the male members of society, but
the case We now record was the murder Of one
woman by another. Mrs. Crow shot a lady by
the name OF Mrs. Kilburn, causing the death OF
the latter in few hours afterwards. -Four
shots were fired by the murderess, all, we
understand, taking effect in the back aud pass
ing through the body of the unfortunate
woman The murder was committed at the
resldencr OF Ms. knnamon, who is now held
IN confinement a. an accomplice TO the deed
Mrs. Crow was taken into custody soon after
the act was committed. We learn that jealousy
was the sole cause Of this unfortunate circum-
stance
