MAN SHOT AT LEBANON.
Pistol. Drawn ON the square.
Preliminary Examination.

From gentlemen who reached this city
yesterday from Lebanon, We have re-
ceived the following information in re-
gard to the shooting ofa Mr.. Bowman in
that city on Monday last. Though their
statements differ somewhat, rs to de-
tails, they agree in regard to the
G. neral facts. A largo number of peo-
pie, amounting it is said to three
or four thousand, reached Lebanon last
Monday, to visst Robinson's circus. Be
sides, it was County Court day. A Mr..
Bowman, from Alexandria, in Smith
county, was in the city, and got into a
difficulty with some parties en- the Square.
A man, whose name we did not learn,
drew his pistol and hit Bowman on the
head with It, when Bowman attempted to
draw q pistol from his own pocket with
which to defend himself Before he could
get his pistol out, it was accidently dis
charged, hitting him Bowman in the thigh
and coming out near the knee. The wound
though painful, was not regarded as very
serious. Another account is that Deputy
Sheriff Foust attempted to arrest Bowman
for disorderly conduct, when Bowman
drew a pistol on the Sheriff. Mr.. Foust
knocked the pistol down with his mace,
causing the ball to enter Bowmans thigh.
We are not able to tell which of these ac-
counts is correct, as each of our in
formants are positive in regard to his state
ment, and each was an eyewitness, though
one was at some distance when the shooting
took place. At all events Bowman was
arrested for the attempt to shoot other
parties, gave two thousand dollars bail for
his future appearance toanswer the charge,
and was then released and taken home.
The affair created great excitement, and it
is said that good many pistols were drawn
by friends of the parties, though we have
information of only one arrest.

Cant RUB 1T Our. "-'Don't write
there" said father to the son, who
was writing with diamond on his win
dow.
'Why not 2"
because you can't rub it out.
Did it ever occur to you, my child that
you are daily writing that which you can
not rub QUIT
You made cruel speech to your moth
Ell the other day. 1t wrote itself on her
loving heart, and gave her great pain.
II is there now, and hurts her every
time she thinks of it. You can't rub it
out
You whispered wicked thought one
day in the ear of your playmate. 1t wrote
itself on his mind, and led him to do a
wicked act. 1t is there now; you can't
rub it out.
All your thoughts all your words,
all your acts, are written in the book of
God.
The record is very sad one. You can't
rub it out.

OUR BAILRoAD INTERESTS
i'm the Chancery Court
Yesterday.

Yesterday.
We gave in yesterdays UNION AND AMER
IcAN a brief synopsis of the decision
Chancellor East rendered sustaining the
plea in abatement filed by the counsel for
the Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville
Road We publish that decision in full
this morning.
This plea In abatement was farther ar
gued yesterday, and the Chancellors stten-
ton was called to certain points, on which
some action was desired by counsel,
The counsel for the State presented an
argument, setting forth, among other
things, that at the last term of the court,
previous to adjournment, and of course
previous to the Ohancellor's decision on
the plea in abatement, the
States Solicitors had made an
affidavit nunc pro tune, stating, that
after diligent inquiry, they had been IN
able to ascertain the names Cf the second
mortgage bondholders, and that the court
had ordered this affidavit to be en-
tered. The counsel for the State
commended that, as this had been
done before the dision of the Chancellor
was announced, the question now was
whether that affidavit did not supercede
the plea in abatement and whether said
plea was not therefore void
The argument of this question will be
continued this morning.
