THE ATKINS TRAGEDY.
nj. Assassin suppo.ed tobe a Nesr

u,. ax.assiu Supposed tobe a Negro.
IAugusta (Ga.) Chronicle and Sentinel, l2th.l
On Yesterday morning it was rumored
on the streets that Joseph AIklns, q
notorious scalawag and Senator IN the
Georgia Legislature, from the Warren
District, had been killed on the previous
day in Columbia county. By the mail
of Yesterday evening, letters were re-
ceiyed in this city from that county
giving the particulars of the tragedy. 1t
seems that some time since, when the
LEGISLATURE was in session, Atkins wrote
a very insulting letter to a respectable
lady living in Dearing, Columbia conn
ty. On Monday morning Atkins, &C
companied by his wife, got off the cars
and remained a short while in Dsaring.
When about to get in buggy to leave
the village, A. was approached by a
man with but one leg, an only brother
of the young lady whom A. had insult
ed, who said to Atkins: 81 am in pos
session of that letter and demand satis-
faction for it," At this remark A. put
his hand behind him to draw pistol,
and Adams, being unarmed, attempted
to borrow weapon, but unsuccessfully.
II seems that here Mrs. Atkins inter
fered and persuaded her husband to
leave the place on foot with her, the
buggy being left in charge of negro
boy. After proceeding a mile from
town Mrs. A. returned, and entering the
vehicls, was driven off by the negro to
oyertake her husband. Some time after
this had happened, Mr.. Adams and two
other gentlemen, leaving Dearing for
their homes in the country, overlook
and passed the Atkins party two miles
and a halffrom the village. Atkins and
the negro were walking together in ad-
vance, the latter with cooked revolver
in his hand, while the buggy was
driven behind by the female. This was
the last seen of the Senator until after
the tragedy. Some time after passing
Sturgis's mill two gun shots were heard,
and the alarm being given parties re-
parted to the spot, and found that At
kins had been shot and mortally wound
ed. The wounds were made by a shot.
gun, and the wounded man stated that
he was shot from the cover of tree by
one of the Adamses. In falling his pis-
tol was discharged, and the ball lodged
in fence bordering the road. In con-
tradiction of this both his wife and the
negro state that they were unable to see
who fred the shot. A search at the
place from whence the shot was fired
disclosed the footsteps of but one man,
and he negro, probably, as the tracks
were those made by No. 10 negro bro.
gan.
