STATE NEWS.

Tie Sommerville Falcon, of the 21st
ult, regrets to learn that Gen. ]. L. T.
Sneed has been quite indisposed for sew
eral days, and confined to his bed at his
residence near that place.
We take the following deplorable acci-
dent from the Boliver Bulletin of the 3Oth
ult. MIR. ]. L. Shaw, an estimable citizen
Of this county, while attending to the run
ming of thrashing machine, last Thursday
week, was caught in a portion of the ma
chinery and so badly injured that death re-
suited. We deeply sympathize with the
family and friends In their sad boreave-
ment.
We take the following sad accident from
the SOmerville F'dlc0B of the 21st ult;
''Mr. Geo. H. Thomas, an old man who
has been digging wells in this county for
fifteen years, was instantly killed on Tues
day last while working in the well of our
fellow-townsman, Mr.. Fuller, by the buck
ct in which he was drawing out mud,
breaking and falling back on him. He
was an industrious, honest, inOffensive
man, and as such was respected by all who
knew him.
The Somerville FdLcOB.. of the 21st ult-
says: Our town and a portion of the coun.
ty was visited on last Thursday evening by
one Of the most terrific rain storms thatwe
ever remember to have seen. For three
or four hours the rain fell in perfect tor
rents, and the little streams that in ordina-
~ times can easily be stepped over, grew
to be rivers, and swept away fences and
everything before them. The corn was
beat flat down on the ground and the cot
ton literally washed out of the earth. Our
planters had been wishing for rain, but we
fear many of them got too much of it.
The Knoxville Press and Herald of the
31st ult., says:
George Fisher, an attache of Robinson's
Circus, was arrested yesterday afternoon
for stealing $32 from Alderman VIM A
Henderson. The fellow was in the Ex-
press Office, when Mr. II came in with a
package to send off, which he laid on the
counter, and while the attention of that
gentleman was attracted for a moment by
a show bill, the rogue seized the oppor-
tunity to abstract the money from the
letter and leave. When the clerk came to
count the money it was gone. MIR Hen
derson at once suspected the thief, and he
was arrested, but gave S35 in the hsuds of
Constable Wilds in lieu of security.
The Memphis Sun, of the 31st ult., has
the following account of an assassination
near that city: Information reached the
city late yesterday afternoon that Mr..
Thomas Dickens, who was tried and ac-
quilted some time ago for killing H. Wade
Bolton, was assassinated early yesterday
morning, about three miles beyond
Raleigh. Col. Dickens had staid all Friday
night at the house of one of the Bottoms
who was known to be friendly to him. |
Yesterday morning he started home on |
horseback, and when about half mile |
from the house, proceeding homeward, he
was shot from his horse. Later in the day
he was found near skirt of woods welter-
ing in blood, his body riddled completely
with buckshot. Up to the time of going
to press, nothing had been ascertained
concerning the motive which prompted so
fearful decd.

DICKSON COUNTY.
Shall the County Scat be Removed

shall the County scat DC hemOSeu
To the Editors of the Union and American:
In your daily paper of the 18th ult.,
you publish the act of the Legislature
''to authorize the citizens of Dickson
county TO vote for or against a change in
the county seat Of said county," The
act provides for an election on the second
Tuesday in November next, and makes
the further provision: "And if ma
jority of the votes cast shall be in favor
of removal, then the same shall be
changed, under such regulations as the
County Court of said county shall pre-
scribe" And the Governor, upon the
receipt of the returns of election, is 10
officially inform the Chairman of the
County Court, etc. In art. 10, sec. of
the Constitution of the State, we find the
following language: "And where an old
county is reduced for the purpose of
forming new one, the seat of justice in
said old county shall not be removed with
out the concurrence of two-thirds of both
branches of the Legislature, nor shall the
scat of justice of any county be removed
without the concurrence of two-thirds of
the qualified voters of said county,"
Now, is not this act of the Legislature,
authorizing the removal of a seat of just
Ice, upon small majority of vOtespolled,
plainly unconstitutional and yoid2 The
Legislature and Governor, before pass
ing and approving the act, should, if they
did not, have looked to the question, and
especially before putting it to a vote of
the people. The removal of a county
seat, loss of public buildings, and build
ing others, is question of no small i'm
portance to county of people already
sore with taxation and debt. Why should
the Legislature undertake the removal of
a seat of justice by amaj jOrity vote, when
an attempt to carry it out will but breed
litigation and greater expense and debt to
the county? TAX PAYER.
