LATHAM's MILL Dam CUT.-On Wedues-
day evening we visited this celebrated
mill site, we say celebrated, because it has
been the fruitful source of litigation,
contention and supposed sickness to
witness the cutting of the dam. Several
hundred spectators were present and
watched with interest the blows of "cOlor-
gemmen" who cut through space of ten
feet, through which poured the pent up
floods as they sought the original chan
nels. By Thursday morning the dam had
almost disappeared by the force of the
current, land the river had risen by the in
crease of waters. Dir. Latham and those
who desired the removal of his mill,
agreed upon a basis of settlement by
which he was to receive 81, 100 and move
his mill. This amount was raised by
voluntary subscription. and Mr.. Latham
will convert it into a steam mill and es-
tablish it in the city linits. Whatever
the merits of the controversy may have
been, we do not propose now to discuss.
People at home and abroad honestly be-
lieved it was source of sickness-that it
bred miasma and death and a whole
'Iliad of woes" and hence its removal
will stop all talk, and give repOse to the
community. Mr.. Latham has behaved
well in the matter, and it is due TO those
who opposed the mill most Violently, to
say that they were the most liberal in
their subscription.

dered. lie lived near Gadsden, and was
in that town on Saturday the 9th inst
The Thursday following, the people in
the vicinity, finding Mr.. Hastings niss-

ia search Of him. BY the aid OF asdog,
the property of Mr.. Hastings, the man.
gled remains of the body were found hid
den in ditch, about two miles from
Gadsden, stabbed in several portions of
the body. A man named Joe Houghty,
Iaborer lately in the employment OF Mr..
H., is supposed to have committed the
foul murder, for the purpose of robbery.
HOughty has left the country, and no one
