AND WOUNDED-THE RECENT FIGHT THE
RESULT CT personal ANIAoSITT TO SHERIFF
DoYLE-EULL. PARTICULARS.-1nform
received in this city from Abingdon yester-
day morning is as follows Sheriff Doyle
has lust arrived here from Lee county. He
reports all quiet. The outlaws could not
be found in the BlacEwater bills, having
fled after the fight to Hancock, Tenn, and
vicinity of Sneedvile, where they now are.
None of the outlaws were killed. Jesse
Anderson was shot through the left chest,
and physicians say he will not recover; Jim
Williams wounded in hand and abdomen
slightly; Andy Testament wounded in
forehead badly; John Livisay wounded in
arm, which will compel the amputation OF
| that limb.
"The names of the other outlaws, as far
as ascertained, are Brit Goens, Thorn Good
man, Mat. Mullins, Hiram Livisay, Joe
Long, Jack Anderson, and Richard Bremen.
There are others whose names are not yet
known. All OF them, including wounded,
are near Sneedyille, Tenn, and send word
to Sheriff Doyle they will drop it if he will

diyenter. There was not United States
officer present at the fight, nor anywhere in
the vicinity. The whole affair was one Of
hostility to Doyle because he and his friends
had aided the United States officials. This
is all there is OF it, and [the writer in this
easel have it from Doyle himself."
Mir. Doyle, spoken OF as sheriff, is really
deputy sheriff, but was acting sheriff at the
time of the occurrences mentioned, the
sheriff himself being then on his way tc
Richmond with two prisoners.

Rev. HaIsted Terribly BnmboozIed,

The good people of Fulton, as well IS
the principal OF the sketch below, were
greatly exercised and very indignant on
reading the following libel upon one of the
citizens of that place which appeared in
yesterday mornings LnteLLigemcer:
SUICIDE BY HANGING-Yesterday
morning the staid Germans of our
Brlghton-the little village of Fulton
were considerably excited over the sui.
eide of August Miller, one OF their well
known citizens, q stonemason by accupa-
ton. Miller WAS found hanging to
tree on Mr.. Kober's dairy farm, on the
hillside above Fulton. He had evil
dently been dead several hours, and the
position in which the body WAS found
showed that he had deliberately pre-
pared the fatal moose, attached II To IL
limb of the tree, and then swung himsel.
into eternity. 1t is not definitely known
when the act WAS committed, whether on
the previous night or at an early hour IN
the morning. Miller was about forty.
five years of age, and married. His wife
keeps saloon in Fulton. For several
years past they have not been on good
terms, and he has several times been ar
rested for assaulting her. He was very
dissipsted and whisky Is ascribed as the
cause OF the suicide"
1t appears the above sensational NOR
ceau OF unreliable news was 5arnered by
the the "unsalaried assistant" of the Rev.
Halstead, and the two locked teams, and
worked all night in the ''bsck office OF
that journal to make the most OF the
item even to the minutest details; with
what success the public can Judge.
Mr., Miller called ut the REGISTER
office yesterday, and requested that we
correct the blunder of eur morning CO.
temporary. He says that such an act of
self destruction was rs remote from his
mind as was the truth from the mind of
the Rev. gentleman when he lndited
that item.
The joke don't end here, however, for
the gulluble evening Ti0inkLer bolt
cd the item, solicited it in
its roy style of re.hashing morning
news, and spread it before its readers as
a sort OF heavy diet for moonlight read
ing.
Mr.. Miller Is now in search OF one OF
Dana's "stuffed clubs" to beat some of the
guilibility out of the reporters who
figured so conspicuously in giving the lib
publicity.

A Bad Man with a Pistol.

Yesterday g man by the name OF Butts,
went to the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
depot, ard while IL the baggage room,
begun to order several railroad men t.
get ready for run out on train No. |
last evening. In giving his orders, ue
prefaced the same BY Irawing small re-
volver from his pocket. Mr.. Thos. Farr"L
Waterman al Fo-ts crossing WAS stat d
Jag close by, and the big fellow turned
round and asked Tom why he was not At
Ford's crossing. Tom asked of the fellow
what business it was OF his, if he, Far
rel) was rot there. A this Butts
cooked his revolver, when Ferrsl told
him to get out or he would give him
the force of his cane over his Butts
head. The big chap rad Il lsrge star on
MS coat, and when braveiy met oy Far
re! left and went up neEr Seabrght :
corner, where he met Engineer Bizeil,
where he said that if he CBizell) run Il
train TO Grafton he would oyertake and
kill him. A policeman here appeared on
the scene, aud the beiiigerent departed
in great haste. Butts is not railroad
man and has no connection with the
str kers.
Sluce the above VIZ, put in type, 1t ha :
been ascertained that Butts entered the
office OF Captain Devries, At MS office IN
the B. & o. depot, and endeavored to IN
timidate that gentleman by the flourish
ing about OF pistol. Butts was arrested
for mis- inter! erence in cause not his
own, and now lsnguishes in dursnce VILE
