VIOLENCE AND BLooDsHED IN Missouri.
St. Louis, February Sin street quar-
rel in St. Joseph night before last, between
several parties, Michael Colligan was sho.
by H. L. Church, and died soon after.
Church, who is q conductor on the St. Jo-
seph and Council Bluffs railroad, gave him
self up and was committed. Colligan was
roustabout" on the river, and quar-.
relsome man. An old feud existing be.
tween Sinclair and Jackson Hurst on one
side, and Joseph Fry, Clarib Jones, and
others, on the opposite.side, eliminated on
Tuesday last at Bushville, Mo-, in the death
of the two former. An alteration occurred
in store, when the Hursts walked out and
were assaulted with stones, one of which
struck Jackson Hurst on the head, knocking
him insensible. Joseph Fry then struck
Sinclair Hurst with piece of scantling,
crushing his skull. He also dealt Jackson
Hurst similar blow while he was lying
insensible, terribly fracturing his skull
The testimony at the inquest showed thai
the Hursts were drunk and had been very
quarrelsome, and had been really the as
sailing party.

r..,,, or Robert q. scott, sr.

RosrRr G. scorr, ST., died on Tuesday,
January %, 1870, at his residence, Meadow
Rank. near Claiborne, Ala, ct the ripe age
Of seventy-nine years, one month and three
davs. Here in this community something
more than bare announcement OF his de-
mise is due to the memory of one so long
and we'll known, and who bore g part 80
distinguished in the affairs of the city and
State. Mr.. Scorr was native of Georgia,
but matriculatcd early, and was educated,
at the College of William and Mary under
the presidency of the venerable and dis
tinguished Bishop MADISON, whose only
daughter he married. At on early age he
represented Williamsburg in the Legisla-
ture, and with enthusiastic zeal supported
the war then waging with Great Britain,
and oil the measures demanded for its sue
cessful prosecution. While in the Legisla-
ture, it is believed, he was elected to the
State Council, in which he served several
terms, having become about the time of his
election resident of this city, where he
pursued the legal profession for many years.
and filled it's municipal Offices with oil the
energy which Was strong trait OF his
character, and with success which IS
held in remembrance by the elder members
of the bar and of the community. AS
lawyer, he exhibited q mind of rare
fertility and quickness of resource, and in
| some departments of the profession, par
ticularly that which elicits power and COM
mand over popular feeling, no certainly
had nc superior and scarcely an equal
among his associates. Mr.. ScoTT belonged
to the Democratic school of politics, and
bore distinguished and successful part
in the election of Mr.. PIERCE, under whose
Presidency he went as consul of the United
States to Rio Jaueiro, remaining in that
service until 1856, when he came home,
and his first wife having died in lS47, he
married Mrs. DELLETT, of Alabama, OF
which State he became resident, and con-
tinued to reside there until his death.
Four survive him of large family OF chill
dren born of his first marriage; by oil OF
whom he was cherished with more than the
common ardor of tilal affection due to the
rare tenderness and devotion which he ever
exhibited in the relation of husband and
father; and beyond that circle many will
look back with regretful memory to the
qualities of heart and genial traits of man
ner which endeared him as n friend and
increased and strengthened his usefulness
as member of society. Peace to his
ashes

OathS and Disabilities

The New York Times has the following
paragraph:
missouri is preparing to cast off the
letters which the excitements, perhaps the
exigencies, of war fastened upon a large
class of its citizens. One of the commit
tees of the State Senate has reported
amendments to the local constitution re-
pealing all DISTINGUISHING provisions and
Republican caucus is reported to have
pronounced in favor of the enfranchise-
ment of all now deprived of suffrage, white
or black. These are timely and proper
steps. Oaths and disabilities connected
with the war, or proceeding from it, are
now out of place everywhere. Missouri
will be nearer absolute paci6cation when il
sweeps them aside
What the Times says is true. Con.
gress should at once pass an act relieving
all the southern people who labor under
them of their disabilities. 1t would be
both wise in itself and polite as party
measure.

had pursued in regard to Virginia, and as
sured him that his confidence in her people
was not misplaced; to which he replied;
1T am certain of that, sir; Virginia is all

rret her admission

New Political PARTY IN VIRGINIA.
The movement ON foot for the formation of
a new political party in Virginia, to steer
between extremes, has created considerable
comment in official circles here. The Re-
publicans generally look upon it as intended
and certain to offset their plans for the
future control and government Of the State,
and denounce it accordingly. There is not
d Republican member of Congress from
Virginia who will endorse it, but many far
sighted Conservative politicians of that State
consider that such q move would be not
only successful, but would rebound to the
best interests of the State hereafter

ATTEMPT OF SENATORS TO FORCE AT
ToRNEY-GESERAL HoAR TO REsIGN.-The
senators who defeated the nomination of
Acknowledgement Hoar for Associate JUS
tice Of the Supreme Court are now derising
ways and means to get him out Of the Cabi-
net. Some of them have made bold to in
form the President that Hoar's presence is
a weakness to the Administration, and that
its success, not less than that of the Re-
publican party, demands his retirement
The President, it is understood, refuses to
coerce Hoar to resign ut least, he has given
no encouragement to induce the belief that
he will do so. 1t is not thought possible, in
view of the decided vote on his rejection
and the personal assaults that have been
made upon him, that he can remain in the
Cabinet. 1t is stated that in case Hoar re-
signs he will he nominated for foreign
mission, perhaps Minister to Prussia in
place of Bancroft, who, it is said, will be
retired. = Washington ielegrom in Nur

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

USwARRANTEp INTERFERENCE or THE
GENERAL or THE ARMY IN CIVIL Az
FAIRs.-General Sherman has given rise to
some unpleasant criticism upon his conduct
of military affairs BY a recent order issued
by him directing interference in purely
civil matter in Virginia. Mr.. John Ii.
Webb, well-known citizen of Washington
some forty years ago sold to lady a large
farm situated in Virginia. The purchase
money was not, it is said, paid up accord
ing to agreement, and Mr.. Webb therefore
brought suit for the amount, recovered
judgment, and advertised IL sale Of the pro-
perry to realize the required sum. On the
day of sale, when people were on the ground
ready to make bids, an officer with autho-
rity from General Sherman interrupted the
proceedings and directed that the sale
should be stayed until further orders from
the General Of the army. This is regarded
here as great stretch of authority, and
Mr.. Webb is advised by his friends to bring
Oh action against General Sherman to test
the legality of such interposition, and to
recover damage for the losses thereby sus-
tanned. Washington telegram-Ner York

EMIGRATION TO THE SoUTH.-On Satur-
day afternoon Colonel Louis thinner, form
erly president of the North Carolina Cen
trail Railroad Company, and general south
ern agent of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road, called at the Executive Mansion for
the purpose of laying before the President
the plan for directing European emigration
to the southern States. The President lis
tened to the explanations of Colonel Zim-
mer with great attention, and gave him the
following letter to be used abroad:
"Colonel Louis thinner, of North Caro-
lima, goes to Europe in the interest of the
Southern Union Land Company to induce
emigration to the southern States of Anne
RIGA. The South holds out great induce
ments to an industrious population both in
the productiveness of the soil and in the
cheap rate at which it can be acquired.
Labor also can be employed to o much
larger extent and fairer wages than is now
supplied"
Colonel thinner expects to be absent six
months, and purposes leaving on Wednes-
| day in the steamer from Baltimore.

TIE CoLoRED SENATOR ELEcT.-There
will be some delay about the Mississippi
bill in the Senate for the alleged reason of
some informally in the ratification of the
fifteenth amendment to the Constitution.
1t is given out, however, in some circles
that this is q mere subterfuge, ard that the
senators would, if they could, get around
the difficulty of admitting a colored senator
at this time. That colored men will occupy
seats in both Houses ere long does not seem
to be doubted, but the mass of senators do
not believe that the time has yet come.
Reyels himself, the colored senator elect, is
not now so sanguine of getting his seat as
he was when he first came here. The very
radical people expected that the fact of his
presence would induce the Senate to act
with unusual promptpess, but in this they
