paS- A most atrocious murder was committed
last Friday on the road leading from the City of
Charleston to the works of the Mining and Man
ufacturing Company, located on the west side of
the Ashley river. The account given Of the di-
abolical act in the papers Of the City is summed
up thus:
Mr.. J. Evans Edings, o most excellent young
man, was on his way to the works, in buggy,
with about 81 200 in tin boz to pay off the en-
ployees, and when about mile from the factory
iwas shot andkilled, by some negroes lying in
wait for him. After numbering Mr.. Edings the
villains forced open the tin box and took out all
the money. The efficient detectives Of Charles
ton was soon on the track of the murderers, and
in very short time found them with 81 ,045 Of
the mcney-the remainder having been spent
for clothes, new furniture, 500 While other ne
groes are in JAIL suspected of being accomPlices,
the two principal murdercrs made confession
next morning after their arrest The confession
has not been made public yet but the following
has leaked out /:
The two negroes were crouched in the brush
wood on the right of the road, waiting for Mr..
Edings. AS he came down, driving at q slow
walk his hands listlessly holding the rens, the
tin box containing the money in the buggy, and
his head thrown back against the side of the
buggy idly looking at the net work ofvines above
him, the murdercrs prepared. Just rs he passed
them, careful aim was taken by the man with
the gun, aud, as Mr.. Edings got about the length
of the vehicle beyond their place of ofconcealmcnt,
the gun fired diagona'ly from his right
The balls all took effect, having scattered, even
in that short space, over four feet of space,
as the wounds upon the body were nine
in number, and ranged from the top
of his head to his legs just above the knee. The
negroes state that he sprung straight up, and
then fell from the buggy in leap. AS soon as
the smoke had cleared away, one of them ran to
the body, the other, who had been posted few
steps further for the purpose, interccpting the
mule, which had started OH the run when the
explosion occurred. The animal was turned, to
prevent his going to the works and giving the
alarm, and the tin box taken from the buggy,
broken open, and, together with the gun, thrown
away, the contents being first transferred to the
negroes pockets. They state that neither ofthcm
touched the body after it fell.

81 CHARRING Cross,

81 CHARR1NG CtOSS, |
LONDON, March 20, 1877. :
=. EDITORS ADVANCE AND JOURNAL:
Gentlemen-I havehoticed thatin your
colamns my name has been drawn by
the Journal, into a. discussion, which, I
have no interest in, except so far as the
interests of Mobiles county are concern
ed. would say in this connection that
the results of the g:asshopper raids,
have driven and are driving people from
your county fast enough, without the
assistance of newspaper, and it seems
to me that the private. feeling of an ed
itor or Of any individual should not be
expressed in the columns of a public
journal, at the expense Of the county
that supports it.
But will simply initiate the exam
pie Of the Hon. E. f. Drake, in stating
the facts, 50 that your readers may
know both sides of the question so far
as l am concerned.
Since Mr.. Mellen paid the 5000 refer
red to, have never seen or heard from
him, directly or indirectly, to the best
of my recollection. am positive, how
ever, that he has never offered to make
any payment of money; for such all oc-
currence, since the panic OF 1878, has
been 50 rare, that no man in his right
mind could have forgotten it. Since I
left Chicago in November last, all let
ters addressed to me there, have either
been forwarded to me, or l have been
advised OF their contents. have this
day written for any and I'LL letters le-
ceived from Mr.. Mellen (if there be any
since the date of the payment referred
to, be sent to me here. II [ find that
Mr.. Mellen has "Written to me three
times before | left for England" | Shall
be very willing to acknowledge my er-
Tor.
| am and have been ready ever since
said payment was made, to receive the
balance due, on the cash payment and
then furnish Mr.. Nlellen with the prop
er contract from the railroad company
have never had any but the pleas
ATTEST relations with or towards MI.
Mellen, and cannot conceive why he, or
the proprietors Of the Journal, can pos
sibly bear malice towards me, or any
one who is and has been for q year,
spending his whole time and several
thousand dollars in advertising the adj
vantages of, and sending people to, No.
bles county. | have bee.. in the habit
of showing your papers to Englshmen
who are calling ut my office daily for in
formation concerning Mobiles county,
but of course this unfortunate discus
sion now prevents my doing so.
l expect to take with me, or send,
quite party OF Englishmen of means
to locate in your county this Spring,
and had hoped to have enjoyed the Ell
couragement and cooperation of your
columns, but regret to find that the
Journal, for some incomprehensible rea-
son, has seen fit to feel and act other
wise.
1 most heartily concur with Mr..
Drake in his remark that "Professor
Humiston, for his untiring devotion
and sacrifices, in the interests of the
Colony, deserves more credit and re-
ward than he ever has or is likely to re-
ceiye.o Yours truly.

The Washington correspondent of
the Minneapolis Tribune seems to think
that-Mrs IDunnell jgot more than his
share of the seeds for distribution.
He says: TIC manner in which Nj.
Dunnell contrived to appropriate to
himself the lions share of Minnesota's
quota, does more credit to his zeal to
serve his constituents than it does to
his candor as q man. It was, to say the
least, disingenuous.'
We hope there will be no jealousy
about this matter. Mr.. Dunnell's dis
trict is the grasshopper district, just
where the "lion's share" Of the seed
was needed. Let other members serve
their constituents as we'll as Mr.. Dun
nell does, and not complain when they
think he is little ahead.
A reduction in the fees of Register of
Deeds made during the late session has
escaped general notice. Heretofore the
usual fee for recording deeds in this
county was $1.10 and for mortgages
$1.35; but under the new law the re-
cording of deeds will have to be done
for so cents, and mortgages $1.l0. The
old law allowed 124 cents folio, while
the new law allows but 10 cents; there
fore the proportionate reduction, is as
above stated. The Register was also
formerly allowed so cents for his certifi-
cate to an abstract of title, but now he
is only allowed Is cents.

Mr.. Taylor purchased some 44,O00

now in England exerting himself to in
terest English farmers in this county
and will in due time, no doubt, secure
for us a number of English settlers.
All this, however, is nothing to the in

jure the community by persistent false
