DEKALB COUNTY.
A Diniculty which Resulted in Death.

Rlucu1ty Wnlcn heSuAteO IN De&stHs
A correspondent writing from Liberty,
DeKalb county, furnishes us with the par
ticulars of a serious difficulty, attended
with fatal results, which occurred in that
place on Friday evening last. About two
O'Clock, two men, living on Dry Creek, in
that county, were at Liberty and met at
Turner'S saloon. Both were drir king, and
after being there together for some little
time, an alteration ensued, finally ternin-
ating in the death of - PoCk
at the hands of Lemuel Braswen.
The origin of the difficulty
is thus stated by our correspondent. 1t
seems that Pock got out States warrant
few days ago against one Crops, and Bras
well knowing the fact, communicated the
same to Crops, aud he left for parts un-
known. This displeased Pock, and when
they met in the saloon, the conduct of the
latter showed that he was considerably riled
at his action. The parties first commenced
by joking each other, but remark made by
BrassWell aroused the ire of Pock, who
struck Brasswell several times with his fist.
BrassWel said he wanted no difficulty, and
did not resent the bio VS.. Turner then put
Pock out of the house, and told Brasswell
that he also must so. Upon reaching the
street, Brasswell made an assault
On Pock with pen knife, and cut him
seven times, the last time breaking the blade
of his knife off in Pock's shoulder. He
then walked of, Pock in the meantime
picking up rock, but was prevented from
throwing it by bystanders, who interfered
to prevent further difficulty. 1t was soon
ascertained that Pock was seriously wound
ed in the breast, and from the effects of a
deep cash in the region of the heart, be
died in short time. Braswel was ar
rested and taken before a magistrate, and
bound over in the sum of $1,000 to appear
before the Circuit Court. Up to late hour
that evening, he had not given the required
bond

Sick and Among Strangers.

On Thursday morning last, says the
Knoxville Press and Herald, a poorly clad
strange man was observed to sit or fal
down on Union street, near the wholesale
house of COwaD, McClung & Co. Several
Of the statesmen and attaches Of the house
fastened to his side, and found the unfor-
tunate man PROSTATE and suffering from
severe hemorrhage of the lungs. DR.. r.
NJ. Rhea, who was one Of the first at his
side, voluntarily administered such restOra-
tives as the case demanded, and as soon as
the sufferer could bear it, he was removed
to the residence of Mr.. Seilas, one Of the
employees of Messrs. CoWan, MGClung q
Co. DR.. Saltmarsh was subsequently call
ed in, and we understand has the case in
charge.
The unfortunate sufferer was unable to
speak without painful effort and unintelli-
gibly. We gathered from those who con-
VerSed with him that his name was Simms,
and that he was a native of Tennessee. He
Joined the Confederate army in 1861, and
remained in it as a private soldier till the
surrender. In one battle he was shot
through the head, the ball entering near the
left eye and escaping above the right ear.
He was shot in another fight through the

bears the unmistakable marks Of these
wounds,as we are informed. While he was in
the army his parents removed from Ten
nessee, first to Kentucky, and then to Tex
as. After the surrender he made his way
to Kentucky in search Of his parents. He
learned that they had moved to Texas and
he followed them there. Arriving in Texas
he learned that his family had become dis
satisfied and had left Texas for Bowling
Green, Ky. Determined to find them, he
left Texas and is thus far on his road to
Bovling Green. His search for his fathers
family has been made entirely on foot.
The stranger is a man apparently o. thirty
or thirty-five years of age. He is extremely
emacared and feeble, but presents no ap-
pearance Of Incorporate habits or dissipa-

Observation-Disclosures bound for this
popular summer resort, should not fail to
stop over for a nights rest ct the "New
Warren House" McMinnville, kept by that
hOspitable gentleman and prince of land
lords, r. II. Mason, Esq. There is no more
desirable locality in the state for recreation
than that about McMinnvilIe, and no such
house in the whole country for comfort and
good cheer as the "NeW Warren"-being
entirely new, ample in arrangement, ele-
CANT in appointment, and positively delight
full in all that goes to make up the thor
oughly equipped and munifcently admins
tered hotel. Indeed, so elaborate is this
institution that our worthy Comptroller, in
endeavOring to exLricate himself from its
mazes recently, was obliged to round to
and call for pilot.
