KILLED FOR USING A NICK
NAME.

We published a day or two ago tho an
nouncemcnt of the killing. Of Reed by
Davis near Ullin.
The deed was cold-blooded murder.
Davis, the murderer, ia ungainly in his
person, with long awkward legs, which
have fastened upon him the nickname Of
shank The use OF this nickname by
his scquain.ances always sngered him
On the evoning Of the murder, Davis
was visiting at his aunts abou. one mile
and half from Ulin and abou.
three miles from his fathers house.
He was standing or sitting before tho
house, when Reed drove up in T. wagon.
The two mon wer. acquainted, and Reed,
in a jocular tone addressed Davis, saying:
"liello. Shanks, what in HI are you
doing up hero'
"D-n YOU said Davis, "you mus. not
call ne that name III whip h-.l out of you
if you got out Of that wagon"
That's just to my hand responded
isoSN AVA Nhlc u no lhhe llltIe OF
that IN mine"
Reed accordingly got out Of tho wagon
and faced Davis, Tho two were soon on
gagged in battle, which resulted in a VIC
tory for Reed, Davis crying, Enough I"
Reed n! once desisted, as tho rules of n
knock-down fight require, and allowed
Davis to get up,
al presume you arc satisfied now" said
Reed, and turned his back ard started to
walk away.
"I.ook out, Reed" shouted cousin of
Davis who was present at tho fight, "he's
aftor you with knife"
Reed TUNED around To face his an,ago-
mist, and as he did so Davis plunged tho
blade Of the knife into his hcart.
"lou id coward - was all that Reed
said and then fell dead.
Davis was arrested. but made his escape.
While his guards. woro con-
sulting together, no walked out of the
house in which he was being detained,
mounted horse his father had provided
for him and went oil Mt n broak-nock
pace, IIe was last soon at Grand Chain,
and it is believed he ia in Kentucky. The
report that no was seen in Cairo Is not
true.

ram, but tho night was ono of the most
disagreeablo of the season. An dsy tho
weather had been gloomy, AMI it contin.
ncd so until the evening; but, for all this,
the attendance was respectable.
Mr.. Thsyor commenced his lecture by
sivinga somewhat full definition of tho
term "Classi.a, showing when, how and
wherc II FIRST came into uso. IIe described
the classical periods, classical history and
classical writers.
Aftcr thcsc prcliminarics tho speaker
proceeded to show the advantages of the
classics under three hoads us follows lat
AS discipline of mind, giving it equal
rank in this particular with tho higher
mathematics. He showed tina, the acqur-
ing of correct knowledge of the gramat-
zeal and iliomatical construction of the
language, was most valuable discip.
linary course. ID. An advantage arising
from the study of the classics is, that il,
opens tho door to the puresl literature of
the world. Itonablcs tho scholar TO read
intcllicenily the bcs! English authors.
This the speaker proved by numerou.
apt illustrations.
Another advantage gained by a study
OF the classics is u valuable KNOWLEDGE of
the history Of tho ancien,s in their bes,
days, including their bcliois, modes of
worship, gods, affairs, shrines, habits, cus-
toms, cities, temples, etc.
Under this first head. tho speaker fully
elaborated the great adraa,agss OF the
classics.
Under the second general head of tho
lecture, viz: Tho Beauties of tho Classic
the speaker showed by copious and Gle.
CANT extracts and apt quotations tina. the
classics abound in choice literary beauties,
such as few may hope 20 equal and none
to excel.
Tho lecture showed grea, familiarity
with the best Crock and Latin writers, as
we'll rs the best of our English authors.
|, WAS shown in tho course IF tho lecture
that our English poets cannot be read un-
derstandingly without some knowledge
of tho classics.
