The Killing ut Biloxi,

Mr.. John Scally was killed in Biloxi or
Friday evening, July >, by Mr.. Josiah
Hcgue. The unfortunate affair had its
origin in dispute between the wives of the
two men, concerning a washing bill of some
seventy-fve cents or more. From wha. we
learn Mrs Scally had employed Mrs. Hogue
to do some washing. which being done and
the clothes carried home. pay was offered
by Mrs. s., which being deemed insufficient:
by the other lady. was refused. Thereupon
angry words passed between them, in CON
sequence of which theic husbands became
engaged in an alteration. This was some
three or four weeks ago. ard from that
time to the time Of the killing the deceased

joined Mayor Conner, Of kenner, FROM in
terieriDg in any way with working the con-
victs on the Jackson railroad. The case
will be tried July II. in the Second Judicial
District Court in Jefferson parish. The
lessees set mp contract or lease made with
Governor Warmoth. which. they claim,
gives them ''vested rights which can not
he !ntertered with by any subsequent Legis-
latnre. In other words. the lessees of the
State Penitentiary think they have become
the masters OF the people, so far a the cor
victs are concerned, and no laws can be
enacted to deprive them of the "yights"
acquired from Governor Warmoth. Consc.
quently, they defy the &C. on this question
that was passed by the las: Legislature.
The best thing to be done is. to repeal
al! laws on the subject OF this lease. and
let the State prison revert to the State.

promptly given and responded to SO readily
by the iiremen that it seemed they were all
at the engine house-or started the tire to
see how promptly they could muster For
short time it seemed the doctors residence
would be burned, but by the use of buckets,
and with the excellent discipline of the fire
men, as well as the aid of many visitors, the
residence was saved. while the two out
buildings close by were consumed.
