About ten days ago an Illicit distil-
Ter, who resides in Egypt, Hancey
county, and who was skulking from
the Deputy Marshals, started to Ten
nessee, taking along his paramour,
whom he dressed in mems clothes and
mounted on a horse that had been
stolen from aneighbOr At night they
stopped at house on their route, and
espying a saddle in the kitchen, he
suggested to his companion that she
rise in the night, when sleep lay heavy
on the lids of the unsupported farmer,
and steal it. In an attempt to do so she
awoke the countryman, who called to
his wife for his pistol. The thieves
became alarmed, and the woman
sprang out of window. As she
alighted outside she stumbled and fell,
and at the same instant the farmer
fired, the ball entering her hip and
ranging upward came out at the
shoulder. The wounded woman re-
covered sufficiently TO reach The cover
of the woods. a week afterwaTd she
was found fifteen miles from the scene
of her misadventure. She was alive,
though her wound was regarded as
dangerous one. Her sex remained un-
discovered until surgical aid was
brought TO her relief Her partner in
guilt escaped. -AshcUH'C Pioneer

THE COLD SPELL.
The Damage 60 Fruit and Crops in
East Tennessee.


For the last few days we have been
visited with some Of the coolest
weather ever known In this country
in the middle of April, and on Friday
night it reached its coolest, and we
learn that in "a number of houses the
water froze in the buckets. We have
taken some trouble to ascertain the
condition Of the fruit crop in this
county, and we regret to have to state
that nearly every farmer we have con-
versed with on the subject is of the
opinion that nearly the entire fruit
crop OF East Tennessee is destroyed.
1t is estimated by some Of the best
judges that the damage sustained by
the fruit crop will be loss to East
Tennessee of two hundred thousand
dollars.
Mr. Ford, who has charge Of the
county bridge and who, asa matter of
course, has an opportunity of seeing a
large number of persons every day,
stated to us Saturday, that many
farmers with whom he cOnversed yes
terday on the subject, was clearly of the
opinion that but little if any fruit was
left uninjured by the frost on Friday
night.
OF course there is some difference of
opinion, and some few farmers held
out. the hope that at least a partial crop
would be saved. Mr.. p. Dickinson
gave it as his opinion that not all the
fruit was killed. Mr.. John 5. Van
Glider examined his trees, and found
that unless something farther occurred,
he would make oue-third crop.
Judge Temple, was of the opinion
that all of his fruit was killed as well
as the early grapes. His strawberries
were also killed.
The damage sustained in East Ten
nessee by this frost is not confined
alone to the fruit crop but to vegeta-
ton generally, and the wheat and
clover crop. All the early garden veg
citation has doubtless been destroyed
and the clever and wheat has suffered
considerably.
DIR. Robert Sneed, who is good au-
thority on the subject, says that all the
wheat which has commenced to joint
has doubtless suffered damage, and il
is thought that a good portion of the
wheat in East Tennessee has iointed
| MI. ALI Culu we'll VIC uhuNlSAdhNii La
thirty acres of wheat at Strawberry
Plains, which he thinks has jointed
1t is impossible TO tell just at this time
how much damage has been sustained
by our farmers 10y this cold spell, bu
it will certainly amount to no sma!
sum. We understand that i'm upper
East Tennessee it was showing yes
terday, and for some time it looked a
though we would have a snow storm
in this city.
At four o'clock yesterday evening
the thermolhetor stood at 39o, and "a
| 1880 it stood at 800. The probabilitie
say we will have nOrtherly to west
erly winds to-day, with rising baron
eter, which indicates that the COLI
weather is not all over yet. We trust
however, thu the present unpleasan
veal her vii e of but short duration
ant that will be followed by tn
pleasant weather usually enjoyed il

The Engineer of the e. y. Bishop
Seriously Injured.
On the 18th as the steamer, r. NJ.
Bishop, on its way down the river,
landed n passenger near Johnson's
Island, 10 miles below the city, the
wheel became entangled in some brush
or limbs Of a tree and injured it to
some extent. About a mile below this
point, at the Badgett farm, the steamer
stopped again to let out other passen-
gers, and while there the engineer, Mr..
Frank James, a very worthy young
man, went out to look after the injuries
sustained by the wheel, when his foot
slipped and he fell, and the engine be-
ing in slow motion, his leg was caught
by the pitman and the flesh
was torn off from his entire
knee, laying bare the bone for s or IL
inches, and the knee cap was torn
loose and turned over to one side. His
cry of distress soon brought the hands
to his rescue and he was carried to his
cabin amidst terrible suffering. He
being the only engineer on the boat,
Mr.. John Bean, an old river man and
engineer, living about mile from that
place, was sent for, and he ran the
boat to Louisville, where DR.. Goetzt
an experienced surgeon, dressed the
wounds, and he was then taken to his
home in Kingston. At last accounts
he was resting easily, but it is feared
that he will lose the use of his leg tC
some extent, to say the least Of it.
