Intelligence was yesterday morning
received Of the death by gun shot The
evening before, of james 4, Miller Il
resident Of this county, and one Of the
most orderly and respectable citizens,
Who it was thht committed this afro
cious crime, or by what spirit OF diabol-
ism actuated, is yet one OF the unde-
veloped mysteries. Certain II ~, how
ever, it was murder most foul.
Jim Miller, for 50 he was familiarity
called, was in town the day hc was
killed, and il is known that he was not
armed. He fell, therefore, by the
hand Of the assassin.
He had bought during the day sup
plies and quantity Of lumber for Use
on his place, and was on his way home
with them. He lived at the Pitts place,
on the Corsicana road, twelve miles
from town. A short distance this side
of town, night coming on, Mr. Miller,
being ON horseback, left the wagons
on the main road, and started home on
the "trail" n more direct route
Shortly aticrward the report of u gun
was heard in that direction; Mr., Mill
Ter not coming home, search was insti-
tuted, and on the following morning
yesterday his body was found, lie
was shot at the trail crossing Of that
ill-inmed creek, the Tehuacana, a short
distance above the Corsicana road, y
load Of buckshot, some eighteen or
twenty, taking effect in his side, had
done its bloody work, aud there he lay.
"Dead men tell no tales,n and in the
absence of witnesses it is possible that
the perpetrator of this great crime may
go unwhipped Of justice and unrecog-
n2ed, save by the eye of heaven, as
the murderer he is. But il it 10 posi-
bic, under such circumstances and in
the absence of any clue, 10 ascertain
who il was that did the deed, this
should be done and the guilty party
be awarded at the hands ot the law the
fearful penalty due his crime. Thede-
ceased will be buried with Masonic
honors by Waco Lodge No 50, to-day.

From the New Orleans llerald.]
Mr.. Charles Morgan has proposed in
New York to resume his engagement
to extend his road from Brashear TO
Houston on the conditions originally
proposed by him, 20 wit; That he will
make the roadbed, crib work, and as-
sign all his rights and privileges in the
extension of the Opelousas Road to
Houston, provided the New Orleans
and Texas Company will supply the
iron, the two pa, ties to have each half
of the road. Mr. Morgan IS willing to
enter into an arrangement of this sort
with Governor Sprague, as President
of the road. 1t is Il very important az
rangement both for Mr.. Morgan and
the New Orleans and Texas Railroad.
Recent experience has demonstrated
that the Opelousas Road, terminating
at B.ashcar, will not he very profit
able and productive property on The in
vestment made therein IY.AIr. Morgan.
The Missouri and the other more
northern roads from Texas will be
pretty certain to draw off the trade aud
travel from this new Southern route
Should the Louisiana Central be COM
pleted to Shreveport, so as to connect
with the several lines which from that
point are to pierce the State Of Texas,
Mr.. Morgan's business would be largely
affected, Many of his boats are
already laid up, and the revonuefrom
his line enormously reduced since the
opening of the road FROM st. Louis to
Galveston. ltbecomes, Therefore, amat-
ter of great need and urgency to Mr..
Morgan to extend his Opelousas road
TO Texas, 1t is equally important to
our city, and we iervently hope that
the arrangement indicated or some
other, will be made, so as to enable our
people to realize the incalculabe hene-
fits so long deferred of such conpec-
ton.
