CURED last night, about twelve miles from
this city, st what is known as the "Old
DiCkins Place" two miles from Cuba, in
this county. The report was brought to
the police authorities by a special messen-
ger, dispatched from the scene OF the
strocious and appalling outrage. The par
ticulsrs of the affair are as follows
As the family of DR.. Thomas Dickins
were at supper last night several armed
unknown men, upon horses, rode up to the
house and fred their guns through the
windows, killing DR.. Dickins aud Mr.
Green Wilson, and a colored servan
named Mary, and then dashed off TO parts
unknown. DR.. Dickins was hit in the arm
and head. All the victims died soon after
they were shot. The remainder of the
family were paralyzed with a death-like
horror and fear at this mysterious and un-
expected visitation of death, and did not
recover their consciousness in time to gee
or follow the assassins.
The news was at length spread among
the neighbors, who spent the night in
securing the country and watching the
roads, to capture the demons. Their ef-
forts were unsuccessful, and courier was
sent to secure the assistance of the Sheriff
and his posse, and also the police force of
the city, who are now investigating the
affair.
Who the sssassins are is not known, but
the friends Of Dr. Dickins are said to be-

A SISTERS STRANGE REVENGE.

parties thereto. 1t runs to this effect
The wife of citizen quarreled with her

sister, who is unmarried, going to work
as a domestic in the family of d we'll

would call she could read the letter.

the consumption and use Of copper in
the substitution of other and cheaper
metals for industrial purposes.
Ii is now thought to resist by artificial
means the action of natural causes-to
place the people Of the United States in
respect to the enjoyment and use Of an
essential commodity on 3 different basis
from other nations, especially to CONS
pensate certain private and sectional in
terest, for changes which are always
coincident to industrial progress. Al
though providing for an increase Of du-
ties, the proposed law does not even come
within the range of protection in the fair
acceptstiOn Of the term. 1t does not look
to fostering young and feeble interest
with a view to ultimately obtaining the
strength and capacity of self-support.
1t appears to assume that the
inability for successful production is in
herent ten per cent, and more likely to
increase than to be gradually overcome.
Yet it proposes by the exercise Of the
law-making power to sustain that interest
and impose it in hopeless per-
petuity, as q tax on the competent
and benefcent industries of the country.
true method for the mining interest
of Lake Superior to obtain relief if
needed, is to endeavor to make
their great national resources
fully available by reducing the cost of
production. Special or class legislation
cannot remedy the evil which this bill Is
designed to meet. They can only be
overcome by laws which will effects

Gen. Reynolds and EX-GOV. ThrOck
morton, of Texas.

Gen. Reynolds and Ex-GOV. ThrOck
morton. of Texas.
Correspondents of the Baltimore Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.--Facts have
just come to light here which ex-
hibit malignity of feeling on the
part of Gen. Reynolds towards Ex-
Gov. Throckmorton, of Texas,
which was hardly to be expected,
even in this degenerate age. The
whole country is aware Of the com
plete vindication Gov. Throckmor-
ton made Of his official course in
Texas but in doing this he was
compelled to expose the tyranny of
Gen. Reynolds. The latter, how
ever, succeeded in inducing the mill
tary power of the government, I'M
der the reconstruction acts, to re
move Throckmorton from Office.
Then, under ordinary circumstan-
ces, the matter would have ended,
but not so with Gen. Reynolds, who
has ventured to file with the recon,
struction committee q protest against
the removal of the political disabili-
ties of Gov. Throckmorton. Verify,
the military power is fast permeating
all the departments of the Federal
government. Nevertheless, it can
be said to the credit of the military,
that Gen. Heintzelman, who was in
command at San Antonio during
Gov. Throckmorton's administra-
ton, volunteered to appear before
the reconstruction committee in be-
half of the Governor, whom he
emphatically endorsed as one of the
ablest and purest men he had ever
known, and one who did all in his
power to reconstruct Texas accord
ing to the letter and spirit of the re-
construction measures of Congress,
and who would have succeeded if he
had not been stript of all power by
the military authorities. Gen. Ere
mont has also volunteered to en-
dorse the application made, not by
Gov. Throckmorton himself, but by
his friends in Texas. tits intimated
that the reconstruction committee
may report bill removing the disa-
bilities from the entire population
of the State, but such a bill would
scarcely receive the sanction of
Congress, in view of the fact that
the Senate has several times refused
to allow the House bill, relieving
from disabilities in special cases, to
be taken up.
