AN UNFORTUNATE AND A Cow
'ARDLY AoT.-In the Memphis APP
peal Of Friday, is an account of an
unfortunate affair which occurred
at Chattanooga on esday
night, as the train moved off from
the depot. Gen. Dabney n. Maury,
the heroic defender of Mobile, had
taken the train, upon which the
man Trice, who was said to be the
author of the recent sIanderous re-
ports in regard to Hon. Jefferson
Davis, was engaged as conductor.
Gen. Maury took occasion to speak
to Trice In reference to the Islander,
and 1t is said saw fit to indulge in
some very severe language towards
him for propagating such infamous
falsehoods, whereupon the SANDER
err knocked him down and after
wards dealt him several severe
blows upon the head with a large
iron poker by which it is feared, bis
life has been endangered. Gen.
Maury is quite a diminutire man
the towards plea, Is that he feared
the General would draw a pistol, is
no excuse for so dastardly an act.
The affair will undergo ihyestiga-
ton, when we hope the would.be
murderer will receive the punish
ment due SO great a crime.
