cheerful aspect. Already the hyacinths, tn.

Capture Of Dryc and Wilson.

The Sheriff Of Boyle county, with strong
guard, passed through our town, yesterday
morning, with Wilson and Drye the murder
ers of young Williamson. We learn from one
Of the guards the following particulars of
their capture. Drye and Wilson arrived at
jamestown, Fentpss county, Tennessee, took
quarters at the principal hotel, mil were hav-
ing jolly good time, drinking and carousing,
gambling, etc. Their actions excited suspi-
cion, and several citizens Of the town laid a
scheme for their capture, believing them to be
the murderers Of Williamson. The Sheriff,
with ten men well armed, walked into tie
public room Of the hotel aud demanded their
surrender. Drye showed fight, but finding ii
useless, threw away his arms. The prisoners
were safely conducted to the Danylle Jail,
there to await trial and justice, The enormi-
iy Of their crime naturally eKcites the pas
sions of the public, but We hope no violence
will be resorted to, as is apprehended, IL the
murderers deserve death, the law should in
this, as ir all other cases, be allowed to take
its course.
