A Culpeper correspondent OF the Rich
mond Dispatch gives the following particu-
Z lars Of a murder heretofore mentioned in
the Virginian:: ION Sunday evening last a
young man named Hawkins, about twenty
two years old, was lodged in our Jail. charg
ed with the murder of boy named Turner,
about twelve years old, on Tuesday evening
last. He, it seems, had seen Hawkins take
some cherries which lady had placed in her
window to dry, and spoke of it to the. lady
and other parties. This exasperated Haw-
kins, and he threatened to kill Turner for
SO telling. On Tuesday he enticed him from
Mr.Stringfellow's residence, where he was
staying, and, after getting him some dis
lance away, deliberately murdered him in
cold blood, presumably with a fence rail,
and left his body there lying. Nothing was
known of this until Sunday last. when Eaw
kins told a son OF Mr.. Strinfelow's where
the body could be found, and that he (Haw-
kins) killed him. When found the body was
considerably maDgled by beasts. Hawkins
was at once arrested and taken to iail.,,

Mr.. Edgar Allen has publishedan address
to the Republicans of the Fourth Congress
sional District of Virginia, reminding them
that it will be necessary for them this year
to pay their property Or poll tax, and to eN-
hibit the receipt at the polls, to retain the
right to vote He says that the district has
majority Of over 5000 Republican voters,
that at the last election this majority was re-
duced to ], 100 by means not necessary to
describe anew at this time, and that if they
neglect the new duty it is ''clear and plain
that the majority allowed them in 1876 will
easily be overcome through the poverty of
those who cannot and the negligence of
those who do not qualify themselves to vote
by paying this.''
