.,I 1.That the School Board hereby authorize

posals to complete the improvements at

THE STORY OF CoLoRED EXCuRsIoNIsT.
One of the colored porters OF Main-street
establishment went to Washington on the
Fourth of July with number of other
excursionists. When the cars left Washing
ton he was not at the depot, and was in con-
sequence left. So he concluded to walk
home. He walked nearly to Fredericksburg,
and being overtaken by train got on
board. Not having any money, however,
and the conductor not being authorized to
issue free passes, he had to commence walk
ing again. He trudged along until only a
few miles from Richmond, but, foot-sore and
weary, he seated himself on the side OF the
road and soon fell asleep. The passenger
train came along, aud the engineer whistled
down breaks, but still he slept on, and the
train struck him and knocked him off on the
roadside. Strange to say, he was not hurt
in the least, although his coat, vest, and
shirt were well-nigh torn from him. Yes
terday he was at work, and said he felt right
well, but his feet were 'powerful sore"
The next time he goes on an excursion the
train won't leave him.

A PROBABLY FATAL AFERAY.
a Negro shot In the Mouth ana Danger
Ously WOundcd-Escape OF
the Accused.

Again we are called upon to chronicle
another one OF those bloody events
which have been so frequent in our city
Of late. Last evening, about o'clock,
a difficulty originated on Constance
street, between Erato and Clio streets,
in which two negro men were the actors
named respectively VIM. Kelley and
Thos Pittman, which terminated in
the former being shot and dangerously
wounded In the mouth with pistol in
the hands OF the latter, who, after the
committal OF this bloody deed, made
good his escape.
The wounded man was conveyed to
his residence, corner OF Erato and Will
low streets, where u DEMOCRAT reporter
visited him, but owing to the unfortu-
nate place in which he was wounded he
was unable to make n statement.
Our reporter also visited the scene of
the occurrence, and learned that these
men had a previous difficulty about five
weeks ago, and, meeting at the above
place. Thos. Pittman, with the remark,
Look out, | am going to kill you"
jumped into the street and fired, the
ball taking effect in Helley's mouth,
