New YORK. July 3.-A terrible tragedy
occurred at No. 81 Oliver street this after
noon, which probably terminated fatally.
John Keating had a dispute with Mrs.
Wells about some trifling matter, in which
George Wells took part, and attempted to
strike keating, but was prevented. Shortly
a1terward they met, when Wells attacked
keating and drew long jack knife and
plunged it into his abdomen. The unfortn-
nate man was conveyed to the hospital, and
was found to have received dangerous
wound, fully four inches deep. His chances
of recovery are very slight, internal hem
orrhage having already set in. Wells
was arrested and held to await exami-

A,tamnfed Robbery.

A market man was in the city yesterday,
from williamson county, and among other
things he had for sale was lot of knit
socks. A man, apparently belonging in
the CITY, made bargain with him for the
lot. and requested him to go with him to
his place of business where he would take
the socks and pay him his money. The
marketer followed, but the fellow took him
someways off toward the outskirts of the
city, and led him into labyrinth of lonely
alleys, through, around and about, until
his suspicious became aroused that the in
tention of the fellow was to get him into
some den with the intention Of robbing
him, or even worse, and watching favor
able opportunity he gave him the slip and
and got away from him. He afterwards
sold his goods to other parties, and started
for home. When out near the Decatur
depot he was overtaken by the same fell
low who had proposed to buy his socks,
who came running up behind and jumped
into his wagon, stating that he was going
out into the country and wished to ride.
The marketer politely informed him that
he. did not carry passengers, and
ordered him out of his wagon. The
fellow got out, and disappeared to one
side, and the man drove on. When out
side of the city, however, near Kings
Springs, and just after passing couple of
men, the same fellow came running after
him crying, ''Stop that thief !" stop that
thief" The two men, supposing the
marketer to be thief, sure enough Joined
in the chase, and soon overhauled him,
when the fellow made an attack on the
poor Williamson county man, jerked him
out of the wagon and beat him unmerci-
fully, the other two men not interfering for
some time, supposing that the fellow was
getting only his Just deserts. At last,
however, the thing ended, and the vaga-
bond whohad been guilty of all this singular
proceeding, made off, The marketer re-
turned to the city and got couple Of po-
lice officers and went back to Rains
springs; where they found the two men,
but the principal character could not be
found anywhere-the two others not know
ing whittier he had gone. They, however,
were taken into custody and brought be-
fore magistrate, but after an examination
they were discharged. The other man has
not been heard of since, but it is pre-
sumed that robbery was his object from
first to last We were unable to learn the
names of any of the parties to the affair,
and are indebted to one of the gentlemanly
sergeants of the police for the foregoing
information

KnhcrIsnn CnmnIN-

By reference to our correspondence
from Springfield it will be seen that our
colleague, Col. Killebrew' speech is spoken
of as an able and very interesting demon
stration of his ability to manage the sub
jeot of agriculture and its kindred objects.
The people we're highly pleased and took
steps to organize a county farmers club
in connection with the Fair Association,
and that it will prove a success and do
much to develop and advance the interests
of that county, no one familiar with her
citizens will doubt for moment.
The people were out en- masse and all
seemed deeply alive to all that promises to
advance the material, social and moral in
terests of their noble old county, whose
citizens are among the most independent,
hospitable and wealthy TO be found in
Tennessee, being out Of debt, making
plenty of money and having plenty in
pocket and in store. We are under special
obligations to hundreds of our excellent
friends over there for aid and comfort ex-
tended to the UNION AND AMERICAN, by
subscribing and procuring others to sub
scribe for the Peoples Paper, and we
pledge renewed efforts to meet their an
ticipations in making the paper better still
ifpOssible.
