[Telegraphic Correspondence of the Union and
American By the Southern Linel
CLARKsvILLE, Tenn, Jan. 23.-The
difficulty near Springfield yesterday. was
caused by misunderstanding in regard to
the land lines between the farms of the
parties, and they were at the time engaged
in surveying the lines. John DuEn was
sitting on Ketchum Jones fence, and Jones
ran up to Dunn with his knife and ordered
him to get off the fence and leave the
premises. Young Jones then commenced
shooting at Dunn, when Jack Green inter-
fered, and, while attempting to take the
pistol from Jones, it went off and the ball
struck Dunn above the eye, inficting a Sc
rious wound.
John Dunn then caught up an ak and
struck Jones in the face with the point
of it, aImost severing his face, from the
chin 10 the forehead. The parties are all
yet in the custody of an officer, and will
have preliminary examination on Mon
day.
A few mornings since, old man Samuel
Long, living Dear Springfield, woke up
about five o'clock, and found a negro
standing over his bed with cooked pistol
in hand. The negro demanded the old
mans money, but not finding any he
started to make his escape, when Long
fired at him several shots, none of which
took effect. The negro has been arrested
and lodged in jail at Springfield.
Business of every kind has been re
markably dull here to-day notwithstand
ing the fine weather.
Mrs. Alice Bailey, wife of our towns
men G. H. Bailey, Esq died last evening
and will be buried tomorrow. She was q
most exemplary woman and leaves many
warm friends to mourn her loss.
The body Of john w. Baynham, Esq
was found in Red river, near this city to
day. 1t is thought he fell in the rive
while attempting to cross. He has fol
many years been one of the largest tobacco
dealers in this county, and was looked
upon as one of the best judges of tobacco il
the market.

undeserved, honor upon our worthy fellow
citizen Sam. Watson, Esq. By unani-
nous vote they elected Judge Wat

the thanks of the board. Resolutions were

THE PREss-A BEACON.

We remember to have read in some
cold volume of forgotten lore" the fol-
lowing parable:
The night said to the lighthouse =
"Of what use arc you Behold the sea
is calm; no danger threatens the ship.
The pilot is asleep"
And the lighthouse answered. The
pilot is free to sleep or to wake; but,
my duty is to point out for him, at every
hour, the rocks and the breakers at the
entrance of the harbor."
Thus docs truth shine on in eternal
splcndor above our heads. If We close
our eyes to it, and go astray, let us
blame only ourselves. So is it the great
transcendant duty, as it is the privilege
of the public press, to shine on with the
steady light Of truth, no matter what
else may betide, whether there be dark
ness and storm, or a clear sky and an
open port.
1t il in this comprehension of its high
destiny, and in this alone, that it can
survive the tide of corruption and in

our other institutions. Let it be the
grand mission of the Press, when the
Bench, the Bar, the Legislative Hall,
nay, even the Sanctuary and the Execu-
tive control of nations are mcnaccd or
whcedled by the power Of evil coalitions,
to interpose its voice between the peo-
pie and their despoilers. For, after all,
the strength of wicked combinations is
but temporary; and those who share in
them or succumb to them must, at last,
partake their doom. In history, time is
but an incident, and the fame of war
riors and mere accumulators of wealth
and power but a dream. Men, institu-
tions and forms of government are con
tinualIy swept aside and continually re-
placed only the old landmarks which
rest upon the eternal rock survive.
Such monument of our civilization
may the Press become. if true to its sa-
cred and solemn charge.-N T. Mcr-
