TRAGEDY AT JOHNsONvnLE.

To the Editors of the Union and American:
JoHNsoNvnLE, Nov. Al write to give
you an account of a tragedy which occurred
at this place on Tuesday afternoon last.
A young man by the name of Hugh Win
frey, aged about II years, shot acolored bar
Der by the name of Long. 1t seems Winfrey
went into the shop and demanded a bottle
of hair oil Long replied by telling him he
had none to sell, but if he wished his hair
dressed, to sit down, and he would do it
for him. Upon this, young Winfrey drew
his pistol twice upon Long. Long finally
told him to take the bottle of hair oil, pay
for it, and go out of his place. At this,
Winfrey fred. Long fell, MORALLY wounded,
the bali having penetrated his lung. Long
lived till about midnight: Winfrey has
taken to the woods, and, SO far as can
learn, there have been no steps taken for
his arrest. This was as unproyoked and
dreadful a murder as has been witnessed
by any community, for there was no provo
cation whatever, for the man Long did not
seem spark in anger, and used no harsh
words whatever. There was no alteration
whatever between them.

METROPOLITAN POLICE BILL.
Its Final Passage.

From glance at our Legislative proceed
ings it will be seen that the bill abolishing
the Metropolitan Police system throughout
the State passed its third and final reading
in the Senate yesterday, and is now the
law of the land, taking effect from the date
of its passage.
Two years ago on the 18th of October
last. the system went into practical opera
ton. much against the wishes of majority
of the people, and the desires of those who
had formerly controlled our municipal
affairs and presided over our courts. Oh
jectionable as it may justly have been at
that time Of high political excitement and
intense personal aspeuties, when a whole
people, and the tax-paying people, too,
had at one fell swoop been disfranchised,
and an inferior race elevated to citizenship,
the Force gained confidence here upon the
public, andhad, as the test at the Capitol
showed, many friends favorable to its con-
tinuance The bill is abolished, and the
Force with it. Our municipal affairs are
again vested in the powers of the Council
and the voice of the people. By pro-
visions Of the act abolishing the bill, 10
DAYS are allowed for the officers and
members of the present force to vacate
and to deliver over to the succeeding legal
custodians of the same, such books, papers,
furniture and appurtenances as legitimate
ly belong to the several offices. 1t also
vests the power in the hands Of
the Mayor of making temporary ap-
pointments of policemen and police Off
GERS to serve until the permanent or
ganization of regularly appointed city
police
The appointment and keeping up of a
thorough, efficient and incorruptible police
force for the proper regulation of the city
Is subject In which all our people are
deeply interested; and as we are emerging
at last from the storms of 10 years, and
gradually settling into the old and peaceful
order of things, We trust that the best
judgment of our Council and worthy Mayor
viii be exercised in a matter of so much
importance as the establishment Of an eff
cient city police.

New Books.

The book-makers are as industrious as
any other class of the worlds multitudes.
The intellect of the age is quite as active as
its muscle. Our books multiply as rapidly
as our inventions and discoveries, and if
our epoch is not really what it claims, the
most enlightened in the worlds history, 1t
is no fault Of writers and printers.
We are indebted to Messrs. D. Appleton
& Co, of New York, through the courtesy
of W. T. Berry & Co., of this city, for a
copy of a translation from the French OF
Charles Boutell, of his late work, Arms
and Armour in Antiquity and the Middle
Ages: also a descriptive notice OF Modern
Weapons" 1t is In convenient compass,
handsomely illustrated, and is the most in
tcresting work on the subject that has
come under our notice.
Another French translation from Zucher
and Margolle, by VIM. Lakeland, entitled
'Meteors, Aerolites, Storms, and Atmos-
pheric Phenomena"-gi the latest reva-
lations of science on these interesting topics.
In this work all classes cannot fail TO be
interested, since its subjects come under
the observation of all.
Appleton & Co. have also published an
Illustrated Almanac for 1870, which IS GER
tainly the most beautiful and elaborate
specimen of the kind yet given to the pub,

A JUVENILE TRAVELLER.
...ysn.uze, of a Ll..ls St. louis Boy

Adventures of a Little st. Louis boy.
Many youthful reader has been fascina-
ted by the pages that recorded the travels
of young Ledyard, who ran on from scnool
and paddled s1his own canoe" down New
ENGLAND stream. and afterwards became
one of the most famous travellers OF his
fine. who penetrated in his devious and
adventurous wanderings, the regions OF
sspolar cold" laid himself down among
the steppes of the Uralian Mountains,
crossed the comb of the worlds roof under
the archingights of the aurora borealis, and
loitered amid the heat of the tropics.
Others have followed with delight the foot
prints of Ross Browne, through the CONT
/ nents and into the rude and uncultlyated
forests of the Western wilds.
And it would appear that we have embryo
| Bedyards and Brownies in our midst yet
As illustrating the fact, without at all en-
couraging other little fellows to initiate his
example. we give the adventurous journey
| Of a Missouri boy from st. Louis to Nash
| vile. There resides near the city OF st.
Louis family who has little boy but
eleven years of age, of remarkable spnght-
illness and vivacity. Outside the neighbor-
hood and occasional visits to the city with
the family. he had never been away from
home. The boy has an uncle In this city
in business, with whom he had been a great
pet, and of whom he was very fond. Re-
Gently he had expressed strong desire to
see his uncle, and previously expressed
himself to his playmates that he intended
to do so. There is no telling how long or how
often the little fellow revolved the project
and matured his plans in his mind for visit
ing his uncle in this city. At all events, be
last week put his determination into execu'
ton. He clandestinely left home, went tt
St. Louis and got aboard the railway train
By the Illinois Central road he satel,
reached Cairo. At that city he embarked
on a steamboat and reached Hickman
From Hickman he came on by way OF Nc
Kenzie on the Northwestern Railroad anC
thence on to Nashville, reaching the cit.
Yesterday morning
Rash and censurable as the act may be
and wrong soever as he may have done IL
causing his parents the anxiety they mus
feel at his absence without knowledge O
his whereabouts, the little fellow has Gel
tainly manifested pluck and sef-relianc
that evinces an early developed determine
ton to make his way through the world
His uncle took immediate steps to advls
his friends of the whereabouts of the httl
boy and took proper charge OF his hopefr
and precocious nephew.

RIVER AND WEATHER.

The river continues to reeede at this
point with only II inches on the shoals.
Weather still cloudy, but according to the
barometer, no rain In sight
By telegram to an exchange it is inti-
mated that the grounding of the Subma-
rine Capt. Washington's boat was not
altogether accidental 1t looks rather
queer as she had no freight and was ruR-
ming very light. But we suppose Capt
Washington can get afidavits to exculpate
himself
Upon the same subject, the st Louis
Times of Monday, November 3, SAYS:
Mr. Ned. Fulkerson, one Of the pilots OF
the Stonewall, in a statement to the Dem
ocrat yesterday says:
'sThere was a boat passed down during
the confagration, but did not stop.
Does Mr.. FulkersOn or Mr.. Washington
tell lie? Was the Submarine in sight
during the eonfagratiOn or was she not.
| We think that the people along the shore
are unanimous in the opinion that Mr. Full
kerson is right, and that the Submarine did
''pass during the eOnfagratiOn.

j. G. Clinck, one of the Oldest printers
in the South, died in Memphis on Tuesday
night last in the 18th year of his age. The
Avalanche says that he had been resident
of Memphis many, many years. Before the
war he was connected with Jeptha Fowlkes
in the publication of the Financial III
press. For some time past he was, on &C
count of age and infmity, superannuated
member Of the profession. He was one OF
the pioneers of the press in the Western
country. and labored faithfully during the
years Of its progress. He was one OF the
few members of the art preservative who, to
the last, preserved fond recollection OF
hand-press newspaperism and the days OF
monthly journals.
