HORRIBLE MURDER IN NORTH CAROLINA.

A correspondent of the Petersburg Ne,os, UNDER
date OF Garysburg IN. c., June Is. says
Mr. Presson, quiet, inonensive citizen. who has
been living at the Seaboard Railroad Bridge. which
crosses the Roanoke River near Weldon, and has
been employed by that company as waJchnan Of
the bridge for nearly twenty-five years, and who
also took charge OF horses for persons who wished
to visit Weldon, was called out Of hts house last.
night, between nine and ten O'Clock, by cwO
negroes, VINO said they wanted to put their horses
IN his charge He went to the stable with them.
lew moments after one OF the negroes returned
TO the house and told Mrs. Presson that Mr.. Pres
son wanted his pocketb0ok to change soma
money. She refused to sendH. In the meantime
the report Of q gun was heard and the negro de-
parted. Shortly afterwards Mr.. Presson came to
the house, saying, Cornelius shot me.n
There is terrible wound in his NECK, made
with musket loaded with shot and fred at short
range. The wound Is sufficiently large to insert y
mans hand in the cavity. He lived barely long
enough to disclose the name OF the perpetrators
Of the hendish deed.
They failed to get any money whatever, which
was their only object. Two negroes-Cornelius
Williams and Austin Hill-have been arrested
charged with the crime They are generally be-
lieved to be guilty, Williams submitted without
effort to escape, but Hill made violent efforts to
elude his pursuers, and there was very exciting
chase after him. Four pistol shots were fired at
himonly one taking effect, that struck him in the
lett shoulder, INJECTING severe wound which ena-
bled them to capture him.

A good deal Of Ill feeling has arisen between the

INDUCING, as sailors do, in copious pota-
tions. party OF half dozen OF them pre-

tence OF seeking change for piece OF gold, made
\ dash at some money In the hand Of the proprie-
tor and got possession OF IL. regular row en-.
sued and blows were freely administered. The
snopKeeper, finding himself getting the worst OF
IL. cried for help to neighboring military post.
A party soon arrived, and battle followed be-
tween soldiers and sailors. The former seem to
have made but little use OF their weapons at first
but private seeing his corporal in the grasp of q
sailor aud in danger OF strangulation from him,
rushed upon him with his bayonet, and either In
tentionally or BY accident run him through the
body. The affair was now soon at an end.
The wounded man was conveyed TO the hospi-

we're carried to prison.
