ARRAY at Athens.

a fight occurred Mt Athens on tho 4th inst,
which caused considerable excitement in the
place. "A man by the name of HARRISON, who
went there lately from Georgia, assaulted Mr.
Dent Porter, formerly of Riccville. Harrison,
who is an cI-gucrilla, struck Porter several
times over the head but failed to knock him
down, whereupon he drew derringer and pla-
cling it within an inch of Porter. head, pulled
the trigger. The cartridge failed to explode,
when the Infatuated assailant struck his antago-
mist violently with the pistol the back of his
head, cutting it badly. By this time Porter had
his revolver out and shot HARRISON through the
hand The latt0r jOitsd at this crisis, and Por-
ter followed, shooting once as he ran. HARRISON
was arrested and a. he was being brought back
to town under guard, Porter rushed around n
corner and shot at him again, when a colorcd
constable forced him to deliver up his pistol.
fortunately no one was seriously injured though
the firing was doncintLc midst of large crowd.

THE CLINTON TRAGEDY.
Capt. RsgIc's Murderer Committed for
Trial.

The preliminary examination, at Clinton, of
". L. Brooks for the murder of Capt. A. n.
Ragle, to which We have before alluded, was
concluded on Saturday night, having occupied
all Of Friday and Saturday.
The circumstances, as shown by the proof
were of uncommon atrocity, and from the be
ginning the defence abandoned all efforts to
do more than show the case to be bailable
one
The prosecution was conducted by Messrs
McGuffey, Ray and Doughty, and the defense
by Messrs. Houk, Dowel and Hogsctt.
The defense made an unsuccessful effos TO
show threats and dangerous character on the
part Of the dead man, and drunkenness on the
part of the defendant sufficient to reduce the
crime below the grade of murder in the first
degree, and thus make tho case bailable one.
The proof, however, developed, forbade such
a supposition.
The concluding argument for the prosecution
was made after supper on Saturday night, and
the Justices, L. Moore, VIM. Cross and j. W:
Key, after retiringa short time for consultation,
returned with decision that the case was not
bailablc, and that the prisoner must be com
mitted for trial
On the application of the prisoner, the mti-
mus was made out to Knox instead Of Andcr-
son county, the jailor of Anderson being a rcls-
tive of the deceased, and the Jail being in an un-
fit condition for the reception of prisoners.
A considerable number of spectators were
present, and during portion of the examins-
| ton the wife of the prisoner and the widow OF
| Captain Ragle we're in the court room
Brooks, we learn, is about to apply to Judge
| Hall for a writ of habeas corpus to test again
| the question of his being entitled to bail. He
was brought to this city yesterday by the Sheriff
of Anderson county and committed to Jail.

DIFFICULTY AT CLINTON.
Capt. \. v. ReagIe shot and MortaIIy
Wounded.

Capt A. n Rcagle, citizen of Anderson Co.,
and during the late war captain IN the 9th
Tenn. Infantry, was shot al Clinton on Monday,
by Nathan Brooks brother-in-law of G. W.
Leath late Sheriff of the County. The shot
took effect in the abdomen, and will prove fatal
it is thought. No one seems to know how the
difficulty originated as the parties have hereto
fore been friends and no cause has been alleged
for the rash conduct of Mr. Brooks
After committing the act, Brooks attempted t.
make his escape but was arrested and has given
bail for his appearance before the next Circuit
