A BLOODY FIGHT.
One Man Killed, Two MOrtally
Wounded and Five Sc
riOusly Wounded.

At a picnic near Bells Depot in
Crockett county, Some weeks ago,
Jas. Harris, a son OF r. G. Harris,
Sheriff of the county, had a diff
Guilty with a man named Smith,
about the county Section. Smith
declined to prosecute the matter
that day, but met young Harris af-
terwards and knocked him down.
The parties were arrested and or
dered for trial at JohnsonviIIe on
Monday the 7th inst. There could
be no trial at Johnsonville, owing
to the violence and 'pistolic" dem
onstrations of the parties inter
etsed, and the Justice postponed
the trial, and moved it to Alamo,
fixing Monday the 18th inst. as the
day. On Monday last the 14th inst.
the parties met at Alamo for trial,
and a continuance was granted IN
til the 22d inst. upon the parties
giving bond. Sheriff Harris and
his son James and two other sons
entered the office OF Justice John
son, followed by Smith and a num-
Der of friends, for the purpose OF
giving the required bonds. Imme
diately after ali the parties had en-
tered, Smith and his friends closed
and locked the door and st once
commenced firing on the Harris
party. It is said that 100 shots
were fired, and the fight was most
desperate. All the parties were
well armed, except Sheriff Harris
who had no weapon whatever. A
man named Wells of the Smith par
" was killed outright, Smith and
JAS. Harris were mortally wounded
and FIVE other combatants were Sc
riously wounded. But the Harris
party held the field and drove of
their assailants. s.-~ackson San.

The interests of the races are
and must ever be identical. High
taxes, impoverished land owners
and low wages must work the in
creased poverty and degradation Of
the colored laborers of the South.
A few hundreds of their race elect
ed out of four and a half millions,
to petty and poorly-paid offices, can
in no adequate way reimburse them
for the immense losses which Re
publican rule imposes upon them.
The South is the colored mans
home; he wants peace with his
neighbors; he wants constant EN-
ployment, and wants good wages
for his labor. These great needs
can never be met by the methods
and policies Of Republican rule in
the South. In the present canvass
the Democratic party is the only
unsecti-nal and truly national par
ty, seeking alike the welfare of all
races and an sections.-Nel0 Orleans

Rock ofAges.

Crock Of Ages, cleft for met
/ Thoughtlessly the maiden sung,
I Fell the words uncOnseiously,
From her girlish gleeful tongue.
Sang as little children sing;
Sang as sing the birds in June;
Fell the words like light leaves, down
On the current of the tune;
"Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee"
81 Let me hide myself in Thce,n
Felt her soul no need to hide;
Sweet the song as song could be,
And she had no thought beside.
All the world unheedingly
Fell from lips untouched by care,
Dreaming not they each might be
On some other lips prayer
Crock of Ages, cletG for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.n
''Rock of Ages, cleft for me''-
Twas a woman sang them now,
Pleadingly and prayeriully;
Every word her heart did know.
Rose the song as storm tossed bird
Beats with weary wing the air;
Every note with sorrow stirred,
Every syllable prayer
'fRoek of Ages, cleFt for me,
Let me hide myself IN Thee"
MOCK OF a geS, cleIL IOr me-
Laps grown aged sung the hymn
TTusungly and tenderly;
Voice grown weak, and eyes grown dim;
''Let me hide myself in Thee"
Trembling though the voice and low
Ran the sweet strain peacefully,
Like q river in its flow,
Sung as only they can sing
Who behold the promised rest
Crock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myselfin Thee
Crock Of Ages, cleft for me"
Sung above cofiin-lid;
Underneath, all restfully,
All life's joys and sorrows hid;
Nevermore, o storm tossed soul,
Never more from wind or tide,
Never more from billow's roll,
Wilt thou need thyself to hide.
Closed beneath the soft gray hair;
Could the mute and stiffened lips
Move again in pleading prayer,
Still, aye, still, the words would be,
"Let me hide myself in Thee"
