LOVE AND MURDER.-We are in
formed that about two weeks ago a
terrible tragedy occurred on the Calca-
sieu river, a little above the northern
line Of this parish. \ young lady
named Gunter, had eloped with a
young man named Bass. Her father
and brother pursued them to the resi-
dence of IL ncighbOring. magistrate,
where few minutes before they had
been married. The father entered the
house at one door, and the son at an
other, and Immediately the former dis
charged double barrel gun loaded
with buckshot in Bass breast. The
latter, though mortally wounded, re-
turncd the fire 10y two shots from a re-
volver, both taking effect in the elder
Gunter'S head. Both parties fell to the
floor, and young Gunter plunged a
bowie knife repeatedly into Bass body.
The latter died instantly. Young Gun
ter then took up his father, (who is
likely to recover from the pistol shots
in his head, as they were glancing shots)
aud fled. Bein2Ipursued by the sheriff
and posse. he turned on his pursuers
with his revolver, and was shot by the
posse, dying from his wounds day or
two after. The elder Gunter is in the
custody of the sheriff. Lake Charles
