an Important Law Suit.

A very important law suit, inv diving
about million dollars, is now being tried
before Judge Emmons of the United States
Circuit Court, the facts connected with
which are substantially as follows:
Previous to the war, large number of
the stockholders in two of our banks, the
Planters and the Union, resided in the
North, considerable stock being owned by
business men of Philadelphia. During the
war, either by vote of the directors, or by
vote of the stockholders, large part of
the capital of both these banks was invested
in Confederate credits, which, of course,
became worthless at the close of the war,
and now suit is brought by Northern Stock
holders against the Southern directors, to
recover the amount of capital which was
lost by having been invested in Confeder-
ate funds and stocks. The suit has been
in progress two days, and attracts great in
terest. Judge Shackelford, Montgomery
Blair and Mr.. Dick appear for the COM
pIainants, the respondent being represented
by w. F. Cooper and Thos. 81. Malone.
The suit win probably continue for several
days yet.

being unable to resist the powerful argu-

the defendant, ordered his release, and ex-
Col. Jones at once shook the dust OF Nash

mined to conduct himself differently when

WANTED TO BORROW A DOLLAR.
Fletcher Bryant was brought before the
court on the charge of having used profane
and abusive language. A witness for the
prosecution stated that he and friend we're
passing along the street few nights since,
when they were met by Bryant, who asked
the witness friend to lend him dollar, but
as the young man did not have anything
less than a ten dollar bill, be requested the
witness to lend him a dollar to lend TO
Bryant, which request was refused. Soon
after, the defendant met the witness, and in
the course of somewhat excited converse
ton, remarked, incidentally, that he would
like to
KNOCK THE TOP OF HIS HEAD OFF
making use, at the same time, Of certain
expressions more emphatic than elegant,
whereupoE Bryant was taken into Gus
tody.
The accused said that the language he
had used was not any more profane than
that used by the other party and that he
had apologized for what he had said. The
Recorder, however, was of the opinion that
nothing less than a contribution of the
sum of s., TO the city treasury, would salts
fly the demands of the law in this in

An Engineer Shoots ANOTHER Dead.
Wednesday afternoon about FIVE O'Clock
when the North-bOund passenger train on
the Mobile and Ohio Railroad reached
Baldwin Station in Mississippi, much ex
element was produced by the killing of an
engineer named Jones. Previously be had
had difficulty with an engineer named
Doc Lampkin, who was running the loco
motive to the above named train, upon
the arrival of which at Baldwin, Jones at
tempted to get into the car. At this Lamp
kin fired shotgun, the contents of which
piercing Jones in the head, caused instant
death, The man falling without grOan to
the earth and the brains oozing from the
aperture in his forehead. After commit
ting the deed Lampkin detached his loco
motive from the train and attempted to es-
cape. He was promptly followed by parties
on another engine, and soon oVerhauled.
The affair caused much excitement among
the passengers, many of whom expressed g
determination to take the law into their
own hands and lynch Lampkin. This
however, was not done and Lampkin were
taken in charge by the Sheriff.

We find the following paragraph in the
Evansville Courier:
Capt. Egsn desires US to make public
mention of the fact that he is not running
the Ella Hughes for glory, and that he wish
es not to get into controversy about the
speed of his own, or that of any other mans
boat. The John Lumsden was the very
first and only boat that the Ella Hughes
ever passed fairly and squarely under way,
and as for Uncle o. having one barge in
tow at the time, that amounts to nothing,
for the Mountain Pet could have passed
the Lumsden if she had had two barges in
tow.
