ments
The train for Manassas had started at eight
o'clock, so the Doctor could not go. He, how
ever, told few persons that he had received
the dispatch, and the news soon spread
throughout the whole city.
At a few minutes after II clock the follow
ing dispatch was received at the Gazette office,
aud it's substance having been posted on the
bulletin board, was eagerly read by the crowd
that soon collected around it, and by which it
was surrounded till the issue of the paper this
afternoon:
MANASSAS, Va, Aug. 3l.-Jas. f. Clark,
tie seducer of Miss Fannie Jewell, was shot,
and probably killed, in the Jail at Brentsvlle
this morning at about eight clock by her
brother, Rhoda Fcwel
mir. Jewell came up on the night train from
Lynchburg and got off at Brstoe Station, and
walked over to Brentsvlle, and on going to the
Jail found the front door open. A black boy, the
only person present, told him in which cell
Clark was, and on going there, he found Clark ~
ing on his bed. Seven shots were fired through
the grating of the cell door, one Of them taking
effect in Clark left breast, Just below the heart
Mr.. Jewell returned to Manassas and has sur
rendered himself into the hands of the au-
thortics. 1t is thought Clark is dead by this
tlme-eleven O'Clock a. III.

doubted sympathcs of the public with him,
wondering why he did not kill her seducer be-
fore. Ed. MANASSAS GAZETTE.
Rev. John Clark, father Of the man who has

told the captain he would have to beach her

the attention Of passing vessels. The boat had
everything that the law requires for the safety

The captain Of the schooner Ncttie Gushing,
of and from Thomaston, Me-, for New York
arrived at New London yesterday morning and
stated that he was run into by the propeller
Mctis, of the Providence and New York line,
and lost her bowsprit, headgcar, knighthcad
aud all the forward gear. lie sang out to the
captain of the steamer to stand ty him as he
thought he was sinking, but the steamer went
on her course. After clearing the wreck
he made for New London. but could not
make it and came to anchor off Goshen reef,
west Of New London light All the time of
the collision it was blowing gale from the
southeast and was thick and rainy. lie was
steering west by south through the race, with
Little Gull island five miles distant, nearing
west by south.
The following is another account. Towards
midnight it blew nearly a gale, while pitchy
darkness prevailed. The passengers had long
since retired to rest and with the exception
that the vessel was rolling somewhat owing to
the roughuess Of the sea, nothing occurred to
mar the progress of the trip. Shortly af-
ter 3 clock schooner hove in sight
about four miles west, southwest of Watch Hill
light and not more than five miles from shore
1t was at this time raining hard and, as it ap-
pears, tic weather was somewhat thick. Sud-
denly and without a sound of warning the
schooner, heavily laden with lime, ran into the
steamer 10 feet abaft the stern on the port side
and squared away on her course A deep dull
thud was felt all over the steamer. Men and
women we're aroused from their slumbcr and
some less frightened than the rest rushed on
deck half dressed and made for the pilot house
to learn the cause Of what seemed a collision.
The captain had already made inquiries Of the
engineer and the cheering news ''all right
allayed all alarm of the terror stricken crowd.
Some returned to their berths but others not
satisfied perhaps with the announcement, or
perhaps uneasy as to results, remained on the
hurricane deck.
