Attempt at Murder.

We learn from very reliable source
that cOwardly attempt at assassination
happened in the vicinity of Neapolis
last Thursday night. AS our popular
and excellent constable, MARSH. REN-
FRO, was passing through DIR. BuNcH's
woods, kalf mile east OF Nespolis,
some one on his right asked him to
"hold onp' MARSH. stopped his horse,
and Immediately shot was fired at him
from behind tree. 1t was pitch dark
and DRILLING rain, and MARSH. ex-
claimed, ''Do not murder me--give
man a chancel' and leaped from his
horse. Just as he touched the ground
second shot whistled past his ear.
He then drew his pistol and returned
the shot, when the assassin fled. For
tunately, MARSH. was not touched by
either shot. He thought that his horse
was wounded, as he broke loose and
ran, but it was found that he was not
hurt.
This is the boldesi attempt at assassi-
nation that has ever occurred in our
midst, and it is much to be regretted
that the villain was not caught and
summarily dealt with. MARSH. says he
has spotted him, and will yet bring him
to Justice. MARSH. Is man to be re-
lied upon, and we sincerely hope that
he may be successful, and bring the
coward to the punishment no so richly
deserves.

j. W. CHEAIRs, has returned In I'm
proved health from his Southern tour,
and is looking to Ills mercantile and
agricultural interests In this place.
MARTIN T. CHEAIRs, Esq, moro IA
military known in these parts, as "Col.
BOONE" from his resemblance to the
tired in a great measure from the active
business OF life, and although be has
been, and h still q great sufferer from
that most distressing disease, Asthma,
yet he is otherwise in vigorous health,
and is calmly, and gently down the
stream of time. He is the Superinten-

arch OF the Methodist Church, at this
place, ian Israelite indeed, in whom is
no guile"
Mrs. MARY DUNLAP, the amiable
wife of our fellow-citizen, S. l. Dun

RoBT. W. McLEMoRE, Jr., writes to
his father from his farm in Mississippi,
that he thinks he will sell out there and
return to Maury. For a man who came
as near dying there, as you did, ROBERT,
this seems very sensible conclusion.
BILLY TAYLOR, tailor by trade, and
who piled his trade in this place near
forty years ago, has just returned after
this long absence, to resume business
here again, and will doubtless throw

Aftemnfed IniIncIirerr

Last Monday, about daylight Mr.. w.
A. LATTA, jsilor, opened the door of a
cell containing the following prisoners {:
BURKE McLENoRE, indicted for the
murder Of young VEsTAL; Bob BEATTY,
Sentenced TO be hung for the murder OF
his wife, on Fountain creek DICK HAM
ILToN; ABE PORTER, PERJURY; HENRY
DUNLAP, larceny; and JOE SHARP, lar
ceny. As soon as Mr.. LATTA opened the
door, BURKE MCLENoRE and BOB BEA-
~, men Of tremendous physical
strength, and one of them of bideous
mienl, caught him by the head, and at
tempted;to choke him, in order TO pre-
vent him from calling for assistance.
The other prisoners then took too pieces
OF the iron cell door, and ran TO the hall
door, which they soon expected to prize
open. But they were defeated in their
daring attempt. Mr.. LATTA ha,lOed to
his father, who was on the outside of the
hall door, which was Licked, to let
them kill him, and on no account TO
csme to open the door or come to his as
sistanee, but to raise the cry Of alarm.
The old gentleman did as his son order
ed, and stood outside with a loaded pis-
tol, ready to shoot the prisoners. Mrs.
LATTL set up an alarm that was heard on
the Public Square, which caused JOHN
Tucker to ring the bell, and several
persons went to the Jail. In the mean
time, the prisoners became alarmed at
the thre ateHing and dangerous attitude
OF Dir. LATTA, and the cry of alarm,
and sneaked back into their cell. Mr..
w. A. LATrA was found not to be hurt
very badly, and soon Sheriff SIMS LAT
IA came down and chained and hand
cufied the refractory prisoners. The
LATrAS have declared, and still declare,
that 10 prisoner shall ever escape from
the MauTy county Jail. And none will.
The Sheriff and Jailors will die first.
