Fatal Tragedy.

IL DSCOhiNo CttL Ntltl 60 a.
faithful chronicler Of passing
events, to record a tragical cir
cumstance which took place in
our town on Friday evening last,
in which James R. Pierce, a
young man about twenty-five
years Of age, lost his life.
At the time above stated, a
difficulty arose between Jesse
Hinshaw and the said James r,
Pierce, in Dir. Browns drug
store, where Pierce was en-
ployed as clerk The difficulty
arose from q dispute between
the two parties, over some triy-
oloUS matter, which led to blows,
Pierce first throwing q weight
at Hinshaw, and afterward fore
ING him from the room. HiuShaw
then went to the blacksmith
shop where he had been en-
ployed, procured a gun, and
returned to the street some fifty
yards from where the difficulty
arose, saying he would kill
Pierce. He was met by his
brother, who enQeaVOred to take
the gun from him, but without
avail. By this time Pierce came
out upon the sidewalk, with a
two-pound weight in his pocket,
and, according to the testimony
of parties present, requested
them to let Hinshaw come, that
he was fixed for him. Mr.. Car
roll Shaver then approached
Hinshaw, took hold Of the gun,
and requested him to desist.
Pierce then ran down the side
walk TO within about twenty
feet Of Hinshaw, and threw a
weight at him. Simultaneous
with the throwing Of the weight,
Mr.. Shaver, fearing bodily in
jury, stepped aside, when Hin
shaw drew up the gun and shot
Pierca-.daaa-- --.t5ha--ls.ss'lt ~es44tc7iilIy3;
his forehead and passing thro'
to the back part Of the head,
and lodging against the skull.
This is the sum and substance
Of the matter, as given On oath
by those present at the time Of
the fatal difficulty.
Immediately after the shoot
ing, Hinshaw fled, pursued by
a number Of persons, who failed
to Overtake him, but on the fol-
lowing day he was arrested by
Sheriff Huddleston and others,
where he was concealed in the
woods but a short distance from
town. He was brought here and
had an examination before JUS
tice Shanks, commencing Mon
day last, the trial closing on
Wednesday, when he was ad-
Judged "guilty Of homicide not
.iustifiable," and held to bond in
the sum Of two thousand dollars,
in default Of which he was taken
to Batesville and lodged in jail,
to await the action Of the next
grand jury-the jail at this
place being deemed insecure.
In connection with the above,
it is but justice to the peaceful
and awabiding citizens Of this
community to state that neither
Of the parties engaged in this
tragedy was a permanent citizen
Of our town. Hinshaw, single
and about twenty-five years of
age, had been here about six
months, and was employed as 3
blacksmith by his brother, Mr..
j. B. Hinshaw. Pierce came
here from Benton county, Ten
nessee, about three months ago,
and was employed as a clerk in
DR.. Browns drug store. Each,
so far as we have learned, had
borne q good reputation pre-
vioUs to the above difficulty,
and both were members Of the
United Friends Of Temperance.

SECRETARY SHERMAN appears 70 have
got the Treasury Department into very
awkward scrape by allowing the national
banks and certain private fiIms. which
figured in The old syndicate, to be ruled out
OF the new one, when, by the withdrawal
Of the balance OF the four and-a-half-ser-
cents. they were deprived OF the full benefit
Of their original contract, without receiv-
ing any compensating interest in the fund
ing of the new loan. The ultimate result
of this injustice will probably take The form
OF suit at law, but the immediate effect is
felt by the new securities, which, instead
of commanding a prt MUM, have fallen
below par, with every prospect OF going
still lower. Secretary Sherman, it is said
by the correspondent OF the World, declares
