ADEspERADo CONES TO GRIEF

4 DESPERATE COMES TO GRIEF
A week or two ago, notorious
character, by the name of Bill Flu
gate, of Claiborne county, with two
of his chums, a fellow by the name
of Williams and the other mans
name forgotten, got on a big drunk,
went into Lee county, Va, overlook
watch-mender travelling on horse
back, whom they commenced abus-
ing, swearing they would kill him.
They started with him up dark and
unfrequented hollow, no doubt to ex-
ecute their threats, but he put spurs
to his horse and run. with the men
after him, until his horse stumbled
and fell. He then ran down tie cliff
into the river and waded across, they
firing at him all the while, discharg.
ing eighteen shots, though without
hitting him. When they found lie
had escaped they returned and took
his horse and tumbled it down high
cliff, smashing it into a jelly. They
then went over into Hancock county,
to a stiIl-house, on Blackwater, near
Sneedville, and got into a row, on
SUNDAY night, with a lot of Black
water fellows. The shooting here
was promiscuous and general, though
not as fatal as was hoped by outsid-
ers. Williams, however, got his jaw
Zone side) shot off with a navy musk
ct. and went across the mountain to
Mulberry Gap to die, but has not yet
done so, as any body knows of. The
other one of Fugate's friends got a
ball through his thigh, but he made
his escape. Fugate Didn't get hurt,
but was taken prisoner. He was kept
until about midnight and released
upon giving up all his pistols and fif-
ty dollars in money. That's the
way" says our correspondent, they
do over in that section when they feel
like it, and when they don't feel like
it, they can act as nicely as any body
else"

New ORGAN.-The congregation
Of the Presbyterian church of this
place have recently added a new and
very fine toned organ as an accom-
paniment to their already superior
church choir. Such accessions to our
churches are commendable, and we
hope all may soon be similarly sup
piled. The best are cheapest.
On and after October 1st the fare
on the Nashville and Chattanooga
Railroad will be reduced to cents
per mile, when the parties purchase
their tickets from the agent. If they
fail to do this and pay the money to
the conductor, it will be his duty to
charge them five cents a mile.

Of corruption and vice that beat around
them. The ponderous wheel of the fac
tory. the roar of machinery and other evi-
dcnces Of Industry are heard all over her

ton will be pleasant and cheerful theme
for the historians pen.
We will venture to say that of the
countless number of Firginians who left
their home, soon after the war. TO push
forward their fortunes in more Southern
and western States. few have succeeded
even moderately well. Withth same en-
ergy and labor they might have done
better or equally as well in their native
State. We doubt not but that those who
have failed, can see more clearly than we
the star Of prosperity as it shines with
greater and greater efful@ence in Virgin
Ia 5 clear armament. Doubtless too, many
are looking lcagiugly ut this star as it
tlro rs off its soft, scintilant beams. They
are anxious to share in Virginia $ pros
pcrity. They wish to seek their fortunes
and exioy life under the skies, that glad
dened their boyhoed days, and to renew
old associations and former friendships
that have only been made the stronger by
the fight of few years. They think
that they could contend with life stern
realities the more re.oigtely. because they
fight on the native soil, and shoulder to
shoulder with their former companions
and friends.
That Virginia may continue to prosper
and advance onward and upward, her
people should be watchful of her best in
terest. They should continue to build
manufactures, construct railroads, and
to do everything tending to the further
ance Of her prosperity In a few years
she will stand out as bright and shining
example to guide her sister, States to the
haven Of success and perfection. -Enlcry

Sudden Death of Mrs. NickcIs.

Our citizens were shocked on Thurs
day evening last at half past eight
o'clock by tidings Of the sudden and
wholly unexpected death of Mrs
Nickels, wife or Mr.. / A. Nickels of
the Nickcls House. For, perhaps, a
month she had been very slightly I'M
we'll, but, perhaps, not more SO than
was naturally attributable to the few
unpleasant weeks which lie between
our Winters and Summers. For
week past she had complained of a
sensation of numbness in one side of
her entire body but did not consider
the matter sufficiently serious to mem
ton it To physician. Indeed il
seems not to have been generally
known to the family. A few minutes
before her death sac stepped into her
chamber and was met by the maid
who was passing out, and who observ-
ed nothing wrong with her. In few
minutes she called to her sister in q
manner which gave alarm, and sank
back upon the bed saying, Il am
gone, try and save me. DIS. Vance
and Pepper were Immediately sum-
moncd. but every effort to rcsuscitate
her was fru;tleSS. We sincerely join
in the public sorrow for this unsPeak>
able loss to Mr.. Nickels and his two
little children, who mourn the loss
OF the sweet tender and amiable VIC
mln. who - them was wife and moth
or and who in one Of those unwarncG
moments which make up the inexpi>
cable life VIC live, found herself on the
precipice OF death These are the
great sermons OF the great God who
make, the terrible history of man aud
who wills that we shall learn in sor-
row tie way to infinite bliss.

THE OLD DOMINION.
BY ROBIN ApAIR.

Within the last decade of years, Virgin
ia has undergone trying ordeal. Du-
ring the late war between the States,
her system of commerce languished.
her institutions Of learning were suspend
ed. her fair fields made dcsolate, the Gu
ercies Of her people exhausted, and the
blood of her nohlest sons split upon the
CORY field OF battle. The mist, gloom, and
! dependency, hung darkcning over head.
Notwithstanding all these troubles, her
people did not despair, but seemed to be
mindful Of the fact. that ont Of trials aud
conflicts, peace could be obtained, and
that serenity enjoyed which characterized
the earlier and haicyon days Of the gov
ernment. How natural Is 1t that they
should have thought thus. Everything

creation. has it trials AMI defeats Veg

not for the inclemcncy OF the weather
nor would our lovely hills and valleys be
clothed in charming beauty. The most
powerful nations, and the most stable
government, have undergone severe Gem
motions and conflicts before they attained
their acme of glory. Through intestine
wars. Greece and Rome, became renowned
for the high degree in which they cult
waited the fnc arts. So VIC could mention
other instances where out of adversely,
great power and stability have been the
results. How becoming then we say,
was it that the people Of Virginia were
not discouraged Acting under this prin-
ciple they, at the close of the war, exerted
all their energies TO the restoration of
their former power, and to the promotion
of the best interest Of the State.
AZ the present day we see on all sides,
the results Of their strenuous cXertions.-
Her beautiful cities which were almost
destroyed by the dircful tread Of war,
have been rebuilt, her fertile valleys are
beautiicd by the rich verdurc of Spring,
her institutions Of learning have been
reSuscitated, the energies of her popula-
ton restored. an impulse given 10 the on
ward march of trade and commerce, and
