THE KILLING OF BELL.

10 hts father and 70 his many friends. As Tar
as can be learned, the following are some OF
the circumstances connected with the nur--
der: Willie Bell and a man named caldwell
a white man-Were engaged IN guarding PFls-
Oners employed IN the vicinity, and on the
twelfth instant. having been paid on, were
at Raabauks, about nine miles from Holly
Springs. They had drinks in company A
personal difficulty soon ensued, words were
exchanged, and Caldwell left, but presently
returned with two pistols. he iOunu Beil

their quarrel, and once more drank 10
crether But after coming out of the drinking
house, caldwell knocked the pistol out OF
Bells hand. and then commenced firing upon
him. Bell rerreating, as he was entirely un-
armed. The first shot hit Bell in the back.
Bell shouted that he was unarmed, ana 70

the second shot struck the young man IN tne

FRANK CHKATHAM.

There are none, whatever their politi-
cal predictions, who would refuse to
do honor to the personal worth and vir-
tues Of General Cheatham. His private
character is stainless and his perfect
simplicity Of conduct and nobility Of
soulh have won him the esteem Of all who
are capable Of discovering and appre-
ciating admirable traits and ennobling
moral qualities. His lofty courage, un-
bending integrity, his strong impulses
warm, unselfish friendships and passion
ate, sudden oVtbursts OF resentment
have won for Cheathsm everywhere, in
and out of the army, troops Of friends.
The multitude rarely make mistakes as
10 the real worth Of individuals. We
may be misled for a time, but
prejudices and misconceptions are
evanescent, and public opinion fin
ally adjusts itself properly. Frank
Cheatham has been prominent since
the Mexican war, and there lives
not a Tennessean whose fame has been
more spotless, OF one to whom the voice
of the people ascribes Ioftier personal
virtues. His capital good sense, mod
esty, truthfulness, genial temper,
strength Of personal attachments,
make men love Frank Cheatham,
and when he visits this city
the people Of Shelby county, those Of
the country OUtvieing those of the city
in wealth of hOners they would lavish
upon our famous fellOw-citizen, will be
gatherd to crown with laurel and bay
the ex-soldier and modest farmer. He
win win in Washington alike among
Northern and Southern men, the same
friendship and the same personal in
iuence that hehas ever exerted in social
and official life. Because Of his
wonderful personal qualities, his
simplicity Of character and earnest,
honest truthfulness, he will WELD inf
nitely greater influence than any life
long politician, however learned or
skillful, who may aspire 10 a seat in
Congress. Let the whole popula-
ton Of Shelby and adjacent counties
come forth to honor the name and vir-
tues Of Frank Cheatham.

A Hunting Party Frozen to Death,

Mr.. Orrin H. Whitford, formerly of this
city, who had formerly taken up a soldiers
claim at Oakland, Jewett County, Kansas,
started on the sixth of November with four
others, to hunt buffalo, intending to be gone
about ten days. The party found the buffalo
out farther than they expected. On the 10th
a heavy rain commenced falling, lasting about
twenty-four hours, then turning to snow with
very strong wind, cleared up on the 18th
piercingly cold On the 22d the wife of Whit
ford and other friends were informed that five
men had been found frozen to death. The
father-in-law of Whitford and four others
started in search. They were gone eight
days and brought in the bodies of four OF the
lost men; the fifth was still alive, but with
both limbs most fearfuy frozen; he had not
had morsel to eat for five days.
II would seem that the party took with
them wagon which they left in ravine.
Tbav afterward found 1t covered with ten feet
of snow, and started back toward home with
their horses. Two Of them, after travelling
six miles, gave out; the third, four miles fur
ther, and he too gave out; young Whitford
pushed on for three miles yet further then
perished. Whitford, who was an Odd-Fel-
low, and wore pin of that Order, was found
by party of strangers, one Of whom belonged
to the Order, who buried his remains, and
left his pocket-book and pin with the nearest
Sheriff. His body, with the others, was az
terward taken to Oakland. Whitford was
formerly member of Company A, S6th LII,
nois Cavalry. He was fine soldier, ana
