The following account is condensed
from the hH0rrWe Press and Herald of
March 26:
1t is thought that Kendrick Sartin,
wounded by Lewis, will recover. Lewis is
acquitted of felony but held in $4,000 to
answer for common assault. For several
days past the feud between Thomas Sartin
and VIM. Lewis has been the absorbing
topic of every street corner. Much uneasi-
ness has pervaded our community in con-
sequence. This, 10 our worthy Mayor, has
been a source of great anxiety. Day and
night he has been on the alert to prevent
disorder and bloodshed. At an early hour,
on yesterday morning, it became whispered
about that Mayor Staub had issued a peace
warrant for G. Z. SaTtin, Thomas Sartin
and Vim. Lewis.
About noon these rumors were verified
by the arrest of all three of the men by Off
| Ger Cole. Mr.. Lewis was taken into the
Mayors Office, in the Opera House, He
left his revolver in his room in the Lamar
House. Thomas and Columbus Sartin
were searched before entering the Mayors

Thomas and a huge revolver from Column

present, Mayor Staub asked if they were
ready for trial. All submitted their cases,
The Mayor then exacted of each a bond in
the
SUN OF $4,000
to keep the peace for twelve months, in the
State Of Tennessee, to all the good citizens
thereof generally, and between themselves
in particular. The Mayor stated that he
would require perfectly good security.
Upon agreement the pistols of all parties
were given to Mr.. Henderson, TO be re-
tanned for the present. MIR. Thomas Sar-
tin, in company with Marshal Claiborne,
then left to endeayOr to secure bail. The
bond of Mr.. Lewis was promptly furnished.
AT 4 O'Clock, Mr.. Lewis appeared before the
Recorder and submitted to a light fine for
shooting within the corporation. The Sar-
tin brothers failing TO give bond, at 3
o'clock in the evening were taken to the

The Aldine for April opens with a
marvellous collection of beautiful illus
trations, some of which are the finest
yet seen in The American Art Journal,
while all reflect great credit upon the
enterprising publishers. American
scenery, as heretofore, forms striking
feature of this number of the Aldine. J.

beautiful full-page spring-time view,
which is printed in tints, and has all the
fneness of steel engraving, block COM

eminent engraver. Five great and re-
markable pictures of Lake George and

faithful pictures of the most exquisite
scenery in the New World. A full-page

sunlight effects in these pictures, are
particularly pleasing. A Gault gives a
full-page picture Of @Knickerbocker
Days" which faithfully represents rural
life in New Amsterdam, in the middle
of the seventeenth century, when New
York was but village. The most
spirited picture which has been seen on
paper for long time, is full-page bat
tle-scene, drawn by Julian o: Davidson,
representing a conflict at sea between an
American and English ship of war, dur

ships are admirably drawn. Four 9TH

IN MEMORIAM.

JANE F. SHAFFER, wife of A. r.
Shaffer, and daughter of J. L. Williams,
Esq, was born Sept. %, 1846, and died
at her home in Somerset, Ohio, March
80, 1874, being in her rtwenty-eighth year
when she passed to her rest.
JAMIE united with the NJ E. Church
February 10, 1855, under the labors of
Rev. S. Frampton, and was happily con-
verted to oGod-remarking, on that men,
orable night, "How beautifully bright
everything is, the stars were never so
bright BEFORE" She was united in mar
riage with Mr.. A. r. Shaffer, May 8,
1856, who is left thus early to mourn the
loss of a truly devoted wife, with the
care of an interesting though invalid
child. May the Lord bless and keep
dear little Charlie. JAMIE has gone to
join the blissful company of brother, sis
ter, mother, and the many loved ones
over there. She was amiable and inter-
esting from childhood; favorits in
the home, and beloved by all who knew
her. She was dutiful daughter, an af-
fectionate sister, and kind and faithful
wife and mother. AS Christian, she
was consistent and hopeful, though quiet
and retiring. She was hoping to live
over another Summer, yet trusting in
the Lord, she was ready to deaprt.
Sister Shaffer had been in delicate
health for some time, and her friends did
not expect her to live long, and were do
ing all they could for her; yet, with all
this, she died suddenly and unexpected
ly from severe hemorrhage of the
lungs-her redeemed spirit taking its
flight Heavenward before some of the
near friends could get to her bedside.
Another voice is still in death; another
seat is vacant, another name passes from
the church records here, another flower
is torn from the sacred wreath of home,
but we trust that that name is written in
the Lambs book of life, and that this
flower is but transplanted to bloom in
the Eden of God, where wasting disease
and the chilly blast of death will never
fade its beauty, or destroy its fragrance.
IT'S hard to say farewelI-but we hope
to meet again.
The high esteem in which this good
, woman was held, was shown by the very
large and interesting audience in attend
ance at her funeral services, which were
very impressive.

Horrible Butchery by Jealous Hus-
band in Nevada.

SAN Francisco, April IA dispatch
from Austin, Nevada, tonight, gives the
particulars of horrible tragedy in
Smoky Valley. Charles r. Echstein
had been for a long time jealous of his
wife, on account of attentions paid her
by young man named Norton, and fire.
quently quarreled about him. Yester-
day a man named Osterhaus went to
Eckstein's home, and found the door
closed. There being no response, he
opened the door, and on the floor lay the
naked body of Mrs. Eckstein, cut to
pieces, she head split; there at her feet
lay their. two little girls, their heads
nearly severed from the bodies, and near
them the dead bodies of Eckstein and
young Norton, grappled as in death
struggle. Eekstein held a large bowie
knife covered with blood in the. right
hand. Norton held dragons pistol
with four chambers discharged. There
is no living witness of this terrible af-
fair.

The Government finances for the third
quarter of the fiscal year, just closed,
make better showing than was ex-
pected. The internal revenue receipts
exceed those of the corresponding three
months last year, one million of dollars,
and she receipts for the year, from this
source, will reach a hundred millions,
being about the figures estimated before
the panic. The customs duties fall off,
but it is believed the treasury will be
able to tnrn the corner, on the first of
July, without resorting to loans or in
creased taxation.-[ Pittsburg Telegraph.

Serious Trouble Threatened at
StraitsYille.

LANCASTER, o., April l.-At New
Straitsville, Ohio, the center of the
mining interests in the Hooking coal
field, serious trouble is expected from a
strike of the Miners Union. Lately
the coal trade has been greatly dimin-
ished by high freights, and the opera
tors felt compelled to make schedule
of prices proportioned to the demand
for coal. These prices we're objectiona-
BILE to the Union, which argues and is
attempting to enforce the idea that their
labor is worth the same price the year
round. A number of plans have been
tried to induce them to yield, among
which was share in the profits above a
certain rate per ton, on all sales, and
again the privilege of supplying the de-
mand, paying fixed price to the opera
tors, but all of no avail-s One company
owning an extensive supply store for
the principal accommodations. of its
miners, closed its doors last Friday to-
ward coercion, since, without money and
credit, the miners might be reduced to
subjection. This act was an extreme
aggravation to them, and danger..to both
life and property is imminet. The Super
intendent of this company's mines, now
here, has been advised by his friends of
the danger in returning.
To forestalI violence, detachment of
Columbus police were ordered to Straits
vile to-day, which, IN fact, only hasten
cd violence, as, assured by the presence
of supposed protection, number OF
on-Unionists ventured into the mines
only to be dragged out and horribly
beaten, actual murder being prevented
only by the exertion of the police. The
miners being desperate, the strike has
assumed an ugly phase, and the culmin-
alton Is not foreseen.
