PAINruL CAsE,-Dr. Bigolow, of
Bcllcville, is now 10 the county Jail,
upon charge of murder Ills wife
died few weeks ago, after an illness
of about q week, and because of impru-
dent conduct on his part suspicious o!
foul play were aroused, and soon tho
air was full of all sorts Of rumors, TO his
dscredit Hearing this. he gave
himself up to the authorities and de-
mauded an Investigation. According
ly, coroner Miller was summoned, who
took with him DR., 4. II. VanValzah,
and the body oftho deceased wife was
exhumed, aud a post mortcm examina-
ton made. DIR. V. also removed the
stomach from the body, and conveyed
il to the laborary of Prof, Rodgers, in
Philadelphia, in order TO have its con
tents analysed, with u view to discov-
ering whether or not they contained
poison. Thus far therefore, there is
not q particle Of testimony against the
doctor. beyond the surmissings which
scapdal-mopgers might invent against
any man whose habits are not strictly
moral. In q week, or ten days at farth-
est, q report may be expected from
Prof. Rogers, and upon that depends
whether the Doctors shall be longer
held for Court or released. .-Lewistotc'

New York, Dec. 80.
The Tri5une8 Atlanta, Georgia, special

three Republican Congressman arc elect

Cd, Sd, and 4th districts. In each Of these
districts tho contest Inns been very close.
Steel, Democrat, elected to Congress from
the 9Th district, will be contested by his
Republican opponent, owing to tho fact
that his disabilities have not been remov.
ed, and fraud and intimidation practised
at the. polls. In fact, 1t could hardly be
called an election, colored voters being
driven from the polls on each election day
in large numbers. At least thousand
were thus prevented from voting. The
Legislature just elected will be largely
Democratic; but this Legislature does
not, according TO Republican opinion in
this Stale, elect United States Senators,
that question having already been decid.
cd by the last Legislature. The new
Legislature does not meet until November
next. The Republicans here arc not
ready to believe that Congress will refuse
