. Constable Tom Echols, of Caledonia,
was subjected to a second preliminary ex-
animation, yesterday, for shooting the negro
White, who being charged with the COM
mission of felony, was trying to make his
escape We did not learn the result of the
inquiry; but if the version of the affair we
published, was the correct one, the examn-
alton could result in no other way than in a
discharge The negroes in the vicinity of
CALEDONIA are considerably excited over the
matter, and for time talked of summary
vengeance; but better counsels prevailed
and the affair will be adjusted according to
the law Of the land, and not according
to the demands of an angry mob.
The IS TO 10" club has sent out sea-
| son invitations to its series of dances. The
initial dance will come off in the st. Charles,
Friday evening. The determination ex-
pressed to commence dancing at and to
stop at l2, meets very general commenda-
ton. Under such restrictions dancing can
never descend to debauchery. THE partici-
pant will have season for rest and will
not be untitled for the duties of the follow
ing day. Within the prescribed time no
one can dance himself or herself to eXhaus-
ton. There will be an abundance of time
for healthy recreation, but not for an ex-
cessive indulgence in the pastime. Con-
templated from any and every standpoint, the
to IL idea is a sensible one, and will lure
into attendance scores of ladies and gentle
men who but rarely indeed enter q ball
room.
The Illinois Central company has be-
come thoroughly infected with the spirit of
the times, and is tearing down, building up,
overhaullng, changing and improving,
wherever necessity seems to suggest the
change. The long frame depot, attached to
that elegant, archltecturally fascinating
structure, known as the stone depot, has
been RACED to the ground and mechanics
are at work extending over the ground thus
cleared the exchange She'd just above.
This shed, once finished to junction with
the stone cditice, tracks will be laid on
either side of it, and room thus provided
for sixteen more cars. The tracks between
the stone structure and the river will be
maintained as formerly. A dozen or more
carpenters are at work on the she'd and will
soon have il ready for use. The change will
greatly facilitate the transfer of freight from
car to car-enabling the men to work at
thirty or forty cars at one time, instead Of
about half that number, as heretofore.
Shortly after officer Schuckers had de-
livcred up Richard Martin to the Paducah
authorities, he received dispatch from
Marshal Birschitt, asking him to keep a
sharp lookout for James Walters, who had
lit out of that neighborhood with a gray
and yellow horse. Officers Schuckers
found the horses housed at Thstlewood's
livery stable, and shortly afterwards came
across Walters; but the language OF the dis.
patch being somewhat ambiguous, Schuck-
ers felt disinclined to take Walters under
arrest He managed, however, to keep Mr..
W. in view and yesterday Mr.. Griffin ar
rived from Paducah, took the yellow horse
in charge, and returned home with it. 1t
appears that the gray horse belonged to
Walters, and that he was paying Mr.. Griffin
for the use OF the yellow one Having re-
covered the animal, Mr.. c. didn't care TO
prosecute Mr.. w. for what was moth.

Mr., James Mott caused the arrest Of

assault made upon him, (Nott with an in

that Ross accostcd him near the Rough and

made an assault with bludgcon that Mr.
Mott declared to be deadly weapon. Mr.
Mott got out Of the way, rs fast as he
could, and thus as he says, foied his as

declared that the stick he used was not such
as could inAict any serious bodily harm;
and he exhibited small stick which he de-
clared was the one used on Mott. Mott de-
