ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE FROM JA1L.-On
Monday evening Trainor, confined on sus-
picion Of being one of the murderers Of
Corporal McManus, was discovered 10 an
attempt to escape from jail. Deputy Sheriff
Lauerman, after locking his cell door, usu-
ally goes away, but having suspicion
that oil WAS not right, waited outside quiet
ly, and in few minutes heard the sound
Of saw moving over iron. Re-en:ering,
he found that Trainor had secured . couple
of table knives, which he had converted
into saws. With these he had cut off one
end Of the iron head rods to his iron bed
stead, twisting off the other end. He had
also sawed off the riveted end Of ono oil
the bolts that held the door. It was hi.
intention, by using one Of the iron rods Il
. wrench, 10 have unscrewed the nut
which could easily have been done. Thu
fellows plans were thus prematurely nipped
In the bud. The knives were furnished
him By one Of the city prisoners-drunk,
who have the liberty Of tho hall. Iii.
believed that this was done by Dueber
There vas also four-foot stick Of wood
in the cell, obtained from the same source
Trainor is now fastened to the iron doc,
by q cable chain and shackles ON his feet
He will thus have abundant time to rumi
nate on how he didn't get out.

DuLI.-Locals are dull. The town has
been distressingly we'll behaved during the
past week. The Justices Court is entire
ly eut'of employment-not even "drunk''
has been before the frowning majesty of
His Honor-whilc the Police have had no
more hazardous work to perform than stand
at the corners and white shingles into
tooth.picks. Only two civilians" are in
the calaboosc, and one Of these became so
ashamed Of himself that he tried to get
out. Nobody seems disposed to be inter-
esting themselves more than ordinarily in
other peoples business, and thereby kick
ing up pleasant row; nobody is failing.
and cheating his creditors nobody is get
ting married; in short, nothing particular
ly awful is happening. Yesterday after
noon, in utter despair, We bribed small
boy with five cents to try to stir up live
ly d og-fght, but it was no use-the CO.
mines were bent on mutual forgiven ess.
(Moreover, the mercenary youth Of dimia-
utive stature didn't return the i've cents,
and consequently We had to 60 into the
market for long loan.) This condition
Of affairs may be beneficial to the commu-
nifty it may "redound to the fair fame Of
our glorious young city," Qong may it
waveD but it is exceedingly melancholy

The suTrERERs.-By Mr.. I. H. Judd, of
Grove Lake, who was in our Office ON Tues
day, va learn Of the condition of those who
were injured during the late tornado.
John Richardson, the eldest sen, who was
unconscious until Friday last, is very low.
His injuries are internal and his recovery
doubtful. He remembers nothing from the
time Of the storm until Friday, or for a
period Of one week.
George Richardson, who had his right
leg broken just above the ankle, is getting
along finely.
Miss Wilson, who had three ribs broken
and her shoulder blade fractured, is il .
very precarious condition.
The main current of the tornado, Mr.. Judd
says, cut road through the timber thirty
rods wide, and trees were broken for dis
lance OF eighty rods.

worthy, and it is to be hoped that others

follow the example. The above fact, ac-

upon substantially the same ground
in regard to extending the elective

stand it, You do. AT Nashville you
declared for universal suffrage, but you
have now placed yourself squareupon

to that subject.
Senter-I viii answer you on that
point tomorrow.
Stokes here gave historical sketch
of the Nashville convention, and
closed by appealing to the people to
elect him Governor and Legislature
that would stand with him, and they
would put a stop to the reckless ex-
trayagance of the State government,
and begin the work of economy, re-
trenchment and reform.

THE CRANE MURDER.
ITS EFFECTS IN GRAND JUNCTION.
YsRGER INTELLECTUALLY.

Correspondence Of the Nashville Banner.
GRASD JUNCTION, AnIAs ASHLAND
June 10, 1869.
To-day railway passengers and peo-
pie at Grand junction were all agog
because of the fearful homicide perpe-
trated by Z. NJ. Yerger, of Jackson,
Mississippi, the nephew of distin-
guished lawyer of Memphis of the
same name. The murderer, if that be
the term, is distinguished for his over
weening vanity, selfreliance, and,
withal, for excellent good sense,
modified, of course, in public estima-
ton, by qualities defined. He loves
dress, is full of himself, and hardly
less well filled with that ethereal FIRE
of genius which startles and amazes
commonplace people. He wrote poe
try, and often f0reible, simple, sensible
prose; the latter the more difficult
task. You must know that it is quite
as impossible to write like Sterne as
to accomplish ends no more faultIeSs
or difficult of execution achieved by
Pope, Dryden, Goldsmith. or Byron.
By the way, two men. were never
more dissiinilar in all their tastes and
modes of thinking, and it would be
diffiehlt to trace the widest parallelism
between Goldsmith and Yerger, and
vet Goldsmith's prose is. as faultlesssas
his matehless verses, while Yerger's s
poetry is said to be execrable, and his
prose-well, did you ever read Mo-
liere's HBouFgeois Gentilhomme,"
the rural "cuss" who had never
learned that he had been speaking
prose all his life? Yerger was some
times eloquent, but only when he was
of the fact. His t1efforf5''
wers his failures. Tried by a military
court, in community which Yerger
often defended by violent newspaper
assaults upon the military masters of
the country, there is little hope for his
acquittal The deed done was terri
Bile, and the wrong done to Yerger's
Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-06-14

wounded and outraged vanity could
only be avenged by terrible violence.
There are very many distinguished
lawyers by the name of Yerger.
Many years ago they dwelt in Wilson
county, in this State, whittier they
removed from Pennsylvania. All
these numberless lawyers are Tennes-
seeans by birth, though most of them
reside in Mississippi. Never before
has one ofthem violated the country's
laws, and never was there onenot
identified with the old Whig party.
Conservatism was an instinct and
moderation an inherent trait of intel
leetual character. and this young gem
tleman is the first Of his race who has
been betrayed by violent temper into
violent acts. No horrible deed ever
shocked a community as this has
made a State shudder. A military
court, acting under the inspiration
of Gov. Ames' alleged malevolence
may make the last act in this tragedy
as sudden and terrible and yengeful
and bloody a5 the first. Yours truly,
