Correspondence OF the Inteligenccr
CHARLESTON, W. Va, January 90.
The Permanent Seat was thrown
into quite an excitement yesterday even.
ing over a shooting atfray between Major
Slack, United States Marshal Of this
district, and Col. ]. N. Clarkson late Of the
rebel army. The particulars of the fight
were about as follows:
Col. Clarkson had before the war pur-
chased farm in the suburbs Of the town,
for 5000, on which he paid a portion.
When the rebellion broke out he left for
the South. The person of whom the land
had been bought, and others to whom
Clarkson was indebted, brought suit in
the courts Of this county, and under the
orders Of court, the said lands were sold
for the sum OF $4,000. Since that time
tue lands have become valuable, a portion
Of them added TO the town plat, and now
covered with houses.
Clarkson seeks in the Court 10 prove a
conspiracy among the purchasers Of his
land to buy 1t at less than its value; and
the suit involving the pecuniary interests
Of large number Of persons who have
bought and built upon the premises, has
become the subject Of much discussion
and acrimonious feeling.
In taking evidence yesterday in the
case, Clarkson became violent and very
abusive of ex-senator Greenbury Slack,
one of the defendants, and at last called
the old gentleman "a liar"
Major Slack interfered in behalf of his
father, (who is quite fecble) and struck
Clarkson when general scuhle ensued.
A friend of Clarkson parted the two and
pushed Major Slack to the other end Of
the room, when Col. Clcrkson regaining
his feet, pushed the elder Slack over a ia.
bic in the room. This so exasperated the
son, that breaking away from the bystan.
dcrs he rushed to the rescue Of his father.
Both parties drew their pistols and as
Clarkson struck Major Slack in the face
with his cane, the latter fired upon him.
Nine shots were exchanged, five of which
struck Clarkson, two passed up into the
ceiling and some into the floor.
With the exception of the stroke of
Clarkson's cane, which fell upon the
mouth, Major Slack was unhurt.
Clarkson was wounded by one ball
grazing his cheek, one causing a small
wound in the back, one in the leg, one in
the right shoulder, and the most danger
Gus hitting him on the LEFT side, above the
heart, passing entirely through the body.
Surgeons pronounce this wound severe,
but not likely Oprove fatal.
Major Slack was held in $4,000 bail to
appear for trial to-day.
The excitement has this morning calm
ed down, and what threatened for time
to be made a political quarrel, is viewed
as one growing entirely out Of the law
suit. HENRY.
