TRAGIC AFFAFR ON CEDAR srRgEF.
shooting OF Ex Policeman Harry
Gauehran by Michigan Jack -
one Dead and The other Wounded.
A fatal ARRAY took place 10 front of Capt.
Bob Pstterson's saloon, No. 3 and 5 Cedar
street, about IL o'clock last night. As a
gambler named Jack Cunningham, who
goes by the euphonious soubriquet Of
Michigan Jack" was standing in door
way, ex-policeman Harry Gaughran came
hastily up TO him with pistol drawn, saw
ing, 4 am ready for You now and fired
almost with the words. Cunningham, who
appeared to have anticipated the meeting.
drew revolver, and fired almost simulta.
neOusly with Gaughran. The latter fell, a
ball entering his heart, and the ball of his
pistol pierced the left arm Of Cunningham
at the shoulder. They were only two feet
apart when the shots were exchanged, the
noise Of which quickly brought large
number Of persons TO the spot. The St.
Nicholas Varieties across the street was al I.
most emptied Of denseIy packed audience,
and the vicinity Of the afiray was ihronged
in a moment.
Gaughran was at once taken TO the
Eclipse engine house on the Square, where
he died in twenty minutes, and Cunning
ham, not severely wounded, was taken TO
his room. He was afterwards placed under
arrest.
Various reports were in circulation a. TO
the origin of the affair. Early in the
night Gaughran was endeavoring to bor-
row a pistol, and was heard to say that
Cunningham owed him something. The
story that seems most likely to be correct,
il that Gaughran interfered with "a little
arrangement Cunningham was trying to
make with a man who had lost some money
at gaming.
Gaughran il said to be from New York
city, and was for some time mail agent
on the Nashville aud Decatur railroad.
He was member of the Metropolitan Po-
lice when it was first organized, but was
shortly after discharged in consequence of
some little shortcomings Cunningham is
a Michigan man, and has been here sew
eral years. Both we're gamblers.
A jury was summoned by Coroner Nor
veil, and verdict of 'justifiable homi-
eide" rendered, it appearing that Gsugh-
ran fired the first shot.

mittee ExOnerHted.
We publish below the communication OF
the Mayor appointing a committee to in
vestigate the charges against the present
workhouse administration, along with the
report Of the committee. These charges, it
will be remembered, were published in
this paper solely on Radical authority,
and we now give the result Of the investi-

ing:
MAYORS OFFICE, NASHVILLE, April s..
GENTLEMEN have assumed the
responsibility Of constituting you special
committee, and called you together for the
purpose of investigating the charges made
against the Workhouse Keeper and COM
mittee, which appeared in the UNION AND
DISPATCH newspaper in its issue of the I'd
inst.
If these charges are true, proper authori-
ty should remedy the evils enumerated if
false, it is but justice to fully investigate,
and acquit the officers charged of official
violation of duty. Public officials should
not be thus wantonly attacked without
promptly defending themselves. Trusting
that you will fully investigate the matter,
am, gentlemen, very respectfully, your
obedient servant,

Your First Sweetheart.

was SO very young and innocent and
pretty. She had such q way of look
ing at you over her book in
church. She alone, of all the world,
did not think you boy at eighteen.
but wondered at your size, and your
learning, and your faint foreshadow-
ing of sandy moustache, and be-
heved you every inch man. When
at those stupid evening parties.
where boys who should have been
IN the nursery, and girls who should
have eaten suppers of bread and
milk, and gone to sleep hours before,
waltzed and firted, and made them
selves i'll over oysters and champagne,
you were favored by q glance of her
eye or a whisper from her lip, you
assembled to the seventh heaven i'm
mediately. When once upon q GER
tain memorable eve, she polkaed with
the druggists clerk, and never look
ed at you, how miserable you were.
1t is funny to think of it now, but it
was not funny then, for you were
awfully in earnest.
Once at picnic she wore white
dress, and had roses twined in her
black hair; and she looked 30 like O
bride that you fairly trembled. Some
time you thought, in just such snowy
costume, with just such blossoms in
her hair, she might stand beside the
altar, and You, most blessed of all
mortals, might place golden ring
upon her finger; and when you were
left alone with her for a moment,
some of your thoughts would form
themselves into words, and though
she blushed and ran away, and would
not let you kiss her, she did not
seem engry. And then you were
parted, somehow, for little while,
and when you met again, she was
walking with gentleman large,
well-whiskered man of twenty-eight
or thirty, and had neither word or
smile for you. And some well-mean-
ing gossip informed you shortly after
that she was engaged to the tall
gentleman with black whiskers, and
that it was "splendid match" 3"
1t was terrible news to you then,
and sent you off to some great city,
lar from your native place, where,
'SA " Sic.hI ucal Oh yOuun1ul grief,
and many resolutions to die and
haunt her, you recovered your
equanlmity and began to make
money, to call love stuff and non
sense. You have n rich wife of your
own now, and grown-up children
aye, even two or three todding
grand children about your hearth |;
your hair is grey, and you lock your
heart up in the fre-proof safe of
your connting-housc when you go
home at night. And you thought
that you had forgotten the little
episode of your nineteenth year,
until the other day, wheR you read
OF her death in the papers. You
know she was stout lady, who wore
glasses, and had daughters older
than she was in that oldon time; but
your heart went back. and you saw
her smiling and blushing, with her
golden hair about her face, and your
self hoy again. dreaming oc we'd
ding robes and rings, and you laid
your grey old head on your office
desk and wept for the memory of
your first sweetheart.
