Tragedy Near Murfreesbor0-A Man Shot
.aiaieEas.aa and Cat to Pieces. 81

4 Frr4s --s-f a.i- 7a~-r faHt
The Union and -Ansericun, of the 18th
] contains the particulars of dreadful TRACE.
dy that occurred two miles and half from
| Murfreesboro', at 5 o'clock last Thursday
afternoon, in which man named William
Hall was literally cut and shot to pieces.
The nameso of the parties who committed
the homicide are Edward Traylor and two
sons, George and John Traylor. The diff
| Guilty arose from damage suit brought by
Que J. w. Maynor against Traylor, which
was decided in the plaintiffs favor on the
evening of the killing. - 80 /.
After the decision of the case, the plain
tiff, Mr.. Maynor, RENTED 81, 900-s stating
that he did not want Traylor's money,
| thatit was family character that he wish
ed to vindicate. In the evening, after
| court, Mr.. Edward Traylor, his two sons,
John and George, and John Brown, a
nephew, started in q carriage for home, a
distance of twelve miles, near Old Jeffer-
son. A short time after, William Hall
and J. w. Maynor left town on the same
road, they living out some eight miles.
After reaching a point a short distance
from town, Mr.. Traylor and hisparty halt
ed on the roadside, and waited until Messrs.
Hall and Maynor had passed. AS soon as
the latter had passed, Traylor and his party
again entered the road and followed on.
About two and half miles from town,
they overlook Hall and -Maynor. John
Traylor at once drew q revolver and COM
menced shooting from the carriage at May
nor, without saying word. Neither Hall
nor MaynOr were armed. Several shots
were fired at Maynor, she being on horse
back while the Traylors were in the car
riage. One of the shots struck Maynor in
the right arm above the elbow, inficting a
severe flesh wound. 4 fk1,A
Traylor then commenced firing at Hall, {
who was also mounted. Hall immediately
dismounted and endeayored to get hold Of
TraylOr, Traylor then got out of the car
riage and run into cotton field, Hall pur-
suing him. On reaching the cotton field
Hall caught his antagonist and threw him
down; George Traylor then ran up and
stabbed him several times with long -blad-
ed knife, five of the stabs entering the ca
witty and penetrating thevital parts. Either
of five of the stabs would have proved IA
tai. Hall was also shot five times. Either
of four of the shots would have produced
death. One ball went through the hand,
two entered the abdoment, one penetrated
the left side through the ribs, and the
other entered the left breast near the heart
Literally cut and shot to pieces, the poor
man, lacerated with lead and steel, soon
gasped his last breath. The murderers
succeeded in making their escape. Great
excitement prevails in the vicity, and $400
reward have been offered for the appre-
hension of the parties to the killing, or
500 for either of them. t3LA1

THE State of Kentucky presents stri-
king example of Democratic economy, to
which we invite the attention of those who
are making complaints at 50 Radical ex-
travagance." The expenses of the State
government there since 1867 have been
ovcr one million three hundred thousand
dollars in excess of the receipts. This
strikes us as being pretty good for high.

Taking Things Without Asking.

When | was boy, I was playing out in the
street one winters day, catching rides on
sleighs, and it was great fun. Boys would
rather catch rides any day than 90 out regularly
and properly to take drive. As was catch
ing on to one sleigh and to another, sometimes
having nice time, and ofttimes getting cut
from big black whip, | at last fastened like a
barnacle to the side of countryman's cutter.
An old gentleman sat alone on the seat, and
be looked at me rather beuignantly, as |
thought, and neither said anything to me, nor
swung his cid whip over me 80 | ventured 10
climb upon the side of his cutter. Another
benignant look from the cOuntryman, but not a
word. Emboldened by his supposed goodness
[ ventured TO tumble into the cutter and take
seat under the warm buffalo robe beside him.
and then he spoke. The colloquy was as fol

Young man, do you like to ride?'
Yes
ITS pretty nice cutter, isn'tit2
Yes, sir, it is, and nice horse drawing it.
" Did ask you to get imp"
" No, sir.
We'll then, why did you get in?''
well, sir, II thought you looked so good
and kind and that you would have no Objec-

And so, young man, because you thought
was good and kind, you took advantage Of
that kindness, and took a favor without asking
for it?'
Yes, sir.

Yes sir"
"Well, now, young man, want to tell you

is worth having, is worth at least asking for

How New Jersey Got Out of the United
States.


The origin of the illusions to New Jersey as
a foreign country is said to be as follows
After the downfall of the first Napoleon his
brother Joseph, who had been King of Spain,
and his nephew, Prince Murat, son Of the
King OF Italy, sought refuge in this country,
and brought much wealth with them Joseph
Bonaparte wished to build a palstial residence
here, but did not desire to become a citizen as
ne hoped to return to Europe. To enable him
as an alien TO hold real estate required special
act OF Legislature. He tried to get one passed
for his benefit In several States, but failed.
He was much ehagrined, especially because
Pennsylvania refused. After this he applied
70 the New Jersey Legislature, which body
granted both him and Murat the privilege of
purchasing land. They bought tract at Bor.
deDtown, and built magnificent dwellings, and
lifted them up In most costly manner Rare
paintings, statuary, &C., were profusc and
selected with care, and the grounds laid out
with exquisite taste.
Joseph BOnapartes residence was, perhaps
the finest in America. Thousands of people
visited it from all parts of the country and were
always treated cOurteOusly. He was profuse
with his money and gave q great impetus to
business in the little town. The Philadel-
phiaRs, finding that he had apparently no end
Of money and that he used it to benefit business
they bad refused to let him locate among them
selves; and, TO keep up their modification,
would always taunt Jerseymen with having a
king-with importing the King of Spain to
rule over them; they were called Spaniards and
foreigners on this account. But these taunts
harmed no one, as the Jerseymen lost nothing
BY their alluring him to settle among them
and the term foreigner, jokingly applied to
Jerseyman, has come down to US long after It's
origin has been forgotten, except by a few men
of the past genera ion. Many years agO-dur.
ing the reign OF Louis PHILIPPE, we believe
both Bonaparte and Murat found they could
safely return to Europe, go they sold out and
returned

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Bushes generally has been moderately active
during the weeks little better than last week.
The money market remains about the same.
The inquiries for loans are little ON the in
crease. The supply of loanable funds is about
the same, and Is scarcely equal to the demand.
The banks generally supply regular customers at
the usual rates.
In New York the market is reported very
easy, and large amounts can be had on call loans
ct from 2 to per cent. on government collat'
erals. Prime commercial paper is readily taken
at 6 per cent
The same easy market is reported in Chicago
and all first class paper is readily discounted at
ten per cent.
Gold has advanced little during the week.
The market is reported firm. There is no par
ticular excitement in the market. The exports
of coin are lttle on the increase, anl the tend
enoy seems towards high prices. The Govern
