the remainder of the week. On Friday
the market opened firm at 80 cents,
with sales at those figures, but in the

the market was quiet and nominally
weaker. There were no transactions
reported. Buyers were offering 50 so,
but sellers were demanding full prices.

of our writing the market is unsettled
and closes very quiet with a weak tone.
No. 2-The movement Of No. was
on a very limited scale, but prices were
well sustained and were fully up to
last quotations.
No. IA fair enquiry also exists for
No. 1, but buyers are offering such
extreme low figures that holders refuse
to accept offers and SO there is very
little doing.

TAR-The tendency Of the market
during the past week presented rather
declining weakness in the early part
of the day Friday. and a decline was
effected, bnt later there was reac-
ton of feeling, and $50 bbls. being
offered secured an advance correspond
ing to the decline. Saturday and
Monday there was no radical change
and at the close Monday we noticed
rather improved feeling which opened
with Tuesdays business at an adj
vance of ) cents, but later in the day
the market became unsettled again,
and declined 20 cents. Wednesday
the market opened dull, and sellers
rates accepted the highest figures
offered which, however, were also Il
decline OF 90 cents To-day (Thurs-

weakness is displayed, and the

ROSlN-Ehere has been 4 moderate

ICorrcsr opdence OF the Courier-.Journal.]
Mr. WAsHINGTON, Ky, Aug. TO-
This morning [ learned from a gentle
man ust from Arkansas, the particu~
lars of tragedy which was enacted
a lew days ago at Arkadelphia, Ark.
in which two kentuckians were the in
terested parties, and as the facts may
be of interest to the readers of the
COu1icr-.JOnl7aoi they arc furnished as
follows:
Some years ago there lived in Spen-
Ger county,a large family of the name Of
Wathen, and in this family was a son
name Nathan. Early in life this Young
man married a daughter OF Kasier
Hughes, but after short term OF maj
ried life. the couple separated and the
wife obtained a divorce. After this
Nathan Wathen cmigrated to McCra-
gan county, where he located near Pa
dllcha. He engaged i'll business with
a brother OF his former wife.
In short time after this the war
broke out, and the Federal soldiers oc-
LuilS luflllSnlHS All
opening for money making, Wathen
gave up his situation with Mr. Hughes
and went to Pa ucha and opened a
sutler shop. While III this business he
became acquainted with Mr.. John Har-
rison, a man we'll and favorably known.
After several business transactions
however, the two men fell out, and the
result was the death of Harrison at the
L. - 81 Il 70 olf,.a
Harrison left wife and one son, whose
given name was Walter, and his age
was then abont seven years This
tragedy caused Wathen to flee the
country, and he went to Arkansas,
where he had lived in peace until the
Doth of July.
Young Walter Harrison grew up to
manhood, and about the first of last
month he babe his mother adier. and
left his Kentucky home to seek his for
tune elsewhere. His first stopping
place was at Arladelphia, Arkansas,
where he soon made friends and OBJ
tanned employment. One evening,
soon after his arrival, he told one of
his newly made friends about his past
life, also the particulars of his fathers
death. and mentioned the name of Ma
than Wathen. At this name the friend
sprang to his feet and said: ''That
man lives in this place, I know him
we'll" Young Harrison then said, if
this were true he would find him and
revenge his fathers death This re-
mark was repeated by others until it
reached the ear of Wathen.
Time passed on until the Doth of Ju-
! ", when the parties met in a grocery
store. Watheu rushed out and seized
a rock, which he threw back at Harri-
son. Harrison then drew n revolver
and fred shot, which pierced the
heart of Wathen, who whirfed around
and fell PROSTATE TO the ground. Har.
rison rushed out to shoot him again,
when Wathen said: :FDon't shoot me
again! You have killed me, and !
want you to forgive me for killing youl
| father Harrison replied that he
would forgive him but doubted If God
would. Then Wathen turned over or
| his side and expired.
Harrison at once gave himself up tG
the authorities, who tried him the
next day after the tragedy, and after
thorough hearing of the case was hon
orably acquitted.
