A CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE SHOT AND
FATALLY WoUNDED.-A dispatch to the
Republican Banner, dated Courtland,
Ala, August 2, says:
"Abont 9 o'clock this afternoon. while
Dr. Hanghey, Conservative Republican
candidate for Congress, was on the stand
delivering speech, he said oil the Kinds
speakers were hirelings. Kinds repre-
sents the extreme Radical wing of the
Republican party, and is also con-
gressional candidate. DIR. Collins, n
friend of Kinds, called him ID liar,
Mt the same time advancing toward him.
Haughey returned the belligercnt
epithet, when both clenched. During
the struggle, Haughcy was shot in the
left breast, just under the ninth rib.
The wound will prove fatal Kinds and
Collins are both carpet-baggers. Collins
is the man who killed Kornehan ut Tus
cnmbia some time since, and is perfect
desperate"

House BURNT IN TIE CoUSTRY.-We
regret to learn that the large and vaua-
BILE house of Mr.. Il. n. Coleman, situated
ten miles above Grecnville, was entirely
consumed by fire, on Thursday, ODD ult.
The conflagration broke out about 3
o'clock in the morning, consuming near
ly everything with the bnilding, with the
exception of few articles of household
furniture, also kitchen and smoke house;
the house was two stories high Mr..
Coleman was absent ut the time, and this
great calamity deprivcs him of nearly
everything he possessed. The house was
we'll supplied with furniture. The fire
IS supposed to be the work of disaf-
iected negro mai. iu the neighborhood,
for whom Mr.. Coleman, who is n Magis-
tratc, had issued n warrant. 1t is to be
hoped that he will be brought to proper
punishment. GrcencWe Enterprise.

The KENTUCKY ELEoTIoN.-The cleo
ton which occurred yesterday involved
nothing which could awaken public in :.
terest. The choice of members OF the
Legislature was made without political
excitement, and the contests forseats in
that body were generally between caadii-
dates protesting the same faith and ad-
herring to the same party. Some days
must elapse before the exact result Of
the small vote polled can be known. In
the meantime our friends abroad may
rest assured that there will not be more
than bakers dozen of radicals in our
next General Assembly. No other sig
nificance attaches to the election in this
State which has just passed off so quietly.

SOUTHERN SECURITIES IN New YoRK-
The Herald, of Monday, in its financial
review, makes the following report of the
market for Southern securities:
Southern securities were generally
heavy and dull. The recent violent
fluctuations in the Tcnncssccs and North
Carolinas, supposed to result from the
manipulation of State officials, have
driven Investment seekers to other and
more reliable securities. The North Ca
linas and Tennessees were better towards
the close Of the week, but only from
what is regarded rs change in the spe-
culativc tactics Of the aforesaid officials.
The South Carolinas were weaker also
through an apprehension that the State
is falling into the danger of lending as
sistance to certain railroad enterprises.
The following were the closing prices of
the Southern list on Saturday evening:

A DIsaRACEFUL CAsE.-The somewhat
celebrated case of Bullock, Blodgett &
Go. vs. E. II. Pughe, which has caused
considerable curiosity among our oity
readers, was before. Judge Gibson all
day. yesterday. The counsel Of Pnghe
fled plea denying that the presses,
fixtures, types and good will of the Dailv
Press were part Of the partnership as
sets, and insisting that the issue made
by the plea should be submitted to jury
at this (the appearance) term. This was
resisted by the complainants' counsel,
and after a long and exhaustive argu.
ment the Court decided that the facts
put in issue by the plea must be decided
upon the, hearing of tho bill and answer
at the regular trial term. The counsel
for Pughe then moved for dissolution
OF the Injunction upon the coming in of
the answer. swearing off all the equity of
the bill. To sustain the allegations of
the answer. afhdavits of Beard and Hale,
both colored, were read. Both of these
negroes swore that they were large stock
holders in the Loyal Georgian concern
Beard that he owned 81, 600 of the stock
and Hale that he was the largest stock
holder, though he could not say def
nitely how large his interest was.
Aftidasits in support of the charges Of
the bill were read, made by BHflhol,
Bryan. Conley, Blodgett, Bowles, Prince
Had Rico. These afidavits not only re-
affirmed all the charges in the bill, but
contained new and important facts, and
made astounding disclosures of the work
ings of the so-called Georgia printing
concern. Pughe reioined with q lengthy
affidavit. in which he took plain and, dis
tinot issue with the statements in the
afidavits of Bullock, Blodgett & Co.
The contradictions in matters of fact
were of such character as to preclude
the idea that they were mere honest diff
ferings Of opinion. There was not an
individual in the courtroom who was
not fally satisfied that perjury was COM
mitted by one side or the other.

FLYING MACHINES. we may believe
the current reports, they have flying
machine in San Francisco, which will
make the airy voyage from that city to
New York in twenty -four hours. In these
days of muItitudinous and multifarious
invention, it is hardly safe to express a
doubt of the practical chances of any
machine whatever; and when the San
Francisco Highfyer has arrived in New
York, we promise to celebrate it in he
roic verse, and still more heroic prose.
We already begin to feel sort of con-
tempt for the attraction Of gravitation,
ariaI currents, atmospheric pressure,
and the fusty old laws of nature, which
have heretofore been deemed omnipo-
tent. Only it would be rather more sa-
tisfactory if we could see the machine.
The San francisco papers soy the expo
rimenta] trips were successful, and that
machine $50 feet long is being built.

----<-> -N----
Border law has in all times and coun-
tries been understood to be verv one-
sided sort of law-very good fol sc
who live on the right side of the j.
very bad for all others. It fourisn.d
especially in those rude ages when
enemy and stranger were described by
the same word, and has its counterpart
in the disposition which is said at this
day, in some of the remote districts of
England, upon the appearance of q
stranger, to prompt the exclamation,
''Punch his 'ead." The latest illustra-
tration of this spirit of frontier Justice,
combined with prejudice of color and
race, is furnished by telegraph from
Kansas. Two persons near Fort Benton
were fred upon by Indians and one of
them wounded. The occurrence being
reported in town, SO incensed the citi-
zens that they straightway took three
Indians, who happened to be in town at
the time, having come in for the pur-
pose of trading, and hung them out of
hand-thus most illogically Furnishing,
as contemporary observes, for the out
rage committed, 'the only three Indians
who by no possibility could have had a
hand in it," This is the law of retalia-
ton, pushed to an unwarrantable ex-
treme. The same contemporary remarks,
that whatever truth there may be in the
frontier saying that "there are no good
Indians but dead Indians" it would not
take many occurrences of the kind to
justify the opinion that there are no
good white frontiersmen at all. If this
is border law, we are afraid the Friends
who have the interests of the Indians in
hand will be under the necessity of ap-
plying to the General Government to pro-
tect their charges against the white man s
justice.
