A Mans Head Cleft open with an Axe,

The Kingston East Is1lnssseeen OF last week says
One Of the most brutal murders we hsve ever
been called upon 10 record took place on Friday
evening last, the public road, about four miles
north Of this place.
It sppears that Cox and Edwards, IN company
with two or three other men, were coming hare from
Kingston, and when about four miles from Gown,
on the road leading TO Clinton, controversy grew
up bet xeen them in regard to the Mrs. Williams
divorce case, in which Cox bad been witness
Mrs Williams being sister of Edwards, and wo-
man Of notorious bad character
After threatening each other, Edwards drew his
coat and gloves, preparatory to an attack with an
axe which ne had in his possession but Cox getting
hold Of it. wrenched It from his grasp, and before
the bystanders could prevent or render any sssis-
/ lance struck Edwards an unmerciful blow on the
| head, MASKING in the SKULL and telling him TO the
earth senseless. Evidently bent on numbering the
man, second blow was given, oleaving the skuil
nearly in twain, the axe penetrating the skull be-
yond the eye" part of the helvs even entering the
skull, producing one Of the most frightful and
CHASTITY wounds imaginable.
Edwards, with his skull smashed Ia this trightfu
manner, with his brains ooEing out, fingered some
| six or eight hours, when be expired.
Edwards, the unfortunate victim, is reported Il
have been quiet, well-behaved young man wa
about twenty-one years Of age; was solder do
ring the war, serving IN the lat Tennessee unde

result The Democrats gain United States Senator
In place of Williams, whom they hate Us one Of the
most ardent Of the impescbers. The facts are that
there were jsaloUsies ard divisions Oh losaL ques-
tions among tbe Republicans OF Oregon, which en-
abled them 10 carry the State by The small msjoFiy

gresa The term Of the present excellent Senator
C. Il. Williams does not expire until 1871, and DO
fore that time another Radical Legislature will have
been elected Indeed, It is tolerably certain that
had the choice Of Senator been involved, the re
suit would have been far different sc il would hsv

The lying Conservative Pspers OF East Tennessee
have publisbed that the Democrats carried The nu-
pieipsl election in Washington, ieu days since -
Il Is lost the reverse. The Radical caI5.lats for
Mayor was elected and majority Of the Council
men. Washington is inhabited chiefly by South
erners and rebsIs and 81 least thousand Of the vo'
ters Of that city were in Lees army. Under these
circumstances the Radical triumph gained by the
oolored vote, is a great victory. The Democratic
papers have published vllsnoss lie about the die
turbances growing out OF the Warrington election.
Under flaming bead lines and big capitals they
have Published that the negroes 1laagsraesa blood
shed. Tie negroes have done no such thing. The
Democrats began the fight on the uegroes, and Che
negroes whipped them. They shot and killed sew
