Horrible Murder.

We condense from the Nashville
American, the following account OF
a blood-curdding Double murder:
A double murder of peculiar atroc-
ity was committed on the Bloomstein
farm, twelve miles from Nashville, in
Bells Bend, Tuesday night. The
victims were John Whittemeyer, a
highly respected German citizen of
that neighborhood, and his wife.
The report of the murder reached
here yesterday though Patton Foster,
who is Mrs. Whittemcyer's brother,
and Thomas Hulan. They came to
the Sheriff's Office hunting for COro-
ner PEBBLES, whom they wanted to
hold an inquest. The information
they brought vas very meager, and
to the following effect:
Yesterday morning, about 8 O'Clock
Foster and a friend went oyer to the
house, and upon opening the door
were Mortified to see lying upon the
bed Mr.. Wittemeyer and his wife
both dead. Blood was spattered
over the bed clothing, Three or four
large rocks and an iron wedge
were lying in a chair near the bed. All
their clothing was gone and her in
FAINT child was lying upon the dead
mothers breast. They Immediately
left for Nashville, saw the Sheriff and
Coroner, and the latter, with a JUS
tice of the Peace, hurried to the
scene.
The killing was done with some
blunt instrument, probably the pole
of an axe, but this can not be asccr-
tanned as no bloody weapon was found
around the premises; the murderer
must have thrown the tool into the
| river OIL otherwise destroyed it. Mr..
Whittemeyer's pocket book was
found open and empty. BE had
been to town Saturday and brought
home S65 to 500, which he placed in
the pocket of a new overcoat' This,
with a black dress coat, vas also
missing. Two children who were in
the house aged one and a half and
three years, were unhurt. Another
child aged five was away at her
grandmothers. Suspicion attaches to
a negro named Knox Martin as the
murderer. He had had n dispute
with Whittemeyer, about wages some
time before. lie left the vicinity
then, not returning until last Tues.
day. Since when he has loafed
around the premises, crossing the
the river on the morning after The
murder. He is also believed to have
known that Wittemeyer had thi
money.

A very wealthy Russian lady some
years ago wished to indulge her passion
for card playing by a few games with
n French lady Of rank who was a noted
PLAYER. The two met at o p. m, and at
sunrise next morning the Russian lady
had lost all of her money and jewels,
and more, too, and said she would in
struct her steward to turn all her es-
tates and mines over TO her conqueror'
the French lady, however, insisted on
providing her own terms, and with the
aid of a notary and priest she bound
thr Russian lady not only nevert to play
again, bat to sent her $4,000 a year.
The bargain was kept and the money
given to the poor. The French lady
has Just died.

Her Long Lost Esrother.

The Boston Herald publishes the
solution of a romantic mystery, the
facts of which are in brief as follows:
Some twenty-five years ago James
Moroney and wife camo to Boston
from Ireland. Two children were
born to them. About the time the
last was born the parents quarreled
and were divorced. The daughter,
the elder child, was apopted by a
wealthy family IN this city and was
brought up in Ignorance Of her orr
gin. Two years ago, having finished
her education and become a beautiful
as well as accomplished lady, she was
married to a wealthy drug merchant,
whose wife she now is. BY some
means she has lately become aware
Of the facts attending her early life,
and an uncomfortable desire to find
her brother bad been aroused within
her. Never having seen him since
his infancy, and being destitute OF
knowledge as to bis Whereabouts, the
lady's task was a difficult one, but
she r~esolutely set about it. The
New York journals chronlcled her
appearance at Newark, N. j., two
weeks ago, she having heard that
some one of q similar name was col
fined in the State reform school at
Jamesburg, but since that time no
public mention has been made OF the
case. When in Newark the lady
stated that object in finding her
brother was to educate and elevate
him to her position in the world.
o-day the wanderer arrived in Bos-
ton, and is stopping with an aunt.
He is an anxious to meet his sister
as she is to find him, but is unable to
learn her present name or the part OF
the city in which she lives, and the
publication of his return IN the morn
ING is expected to result in the union
of this long-lost brother and sister.
1t may be stated that the young man
has been "tramping it" for some
time, and was until he made his es-
cape therefrom, just before his sister
reached Jamesburg, an inmate OF the
New Jersey State reform school.

ce in a recent conversation that al
though his life had been a long and

not buy mp the Democratic nomination

was advised that he could get it for

boys to steal into his circus tent when
on hiss travels, and, fourth, that he

JAMES COUNTY.

County CouTt-Hellgious Revival.
Editor HERALD; You inqire If your
James county correspondent is %"frozem
up" Yes, lac has been, but is "thawed
out" James county people have
principally been enjoying big dinners
and good fires since Christmas. Moth
ing else of general interest since the
assembling of the county court. That
institution elected AS Chairman Rev.
Il. II. Guthrie, OF Harrison, AMI Pleas.
Matthews, near Georgetown, Chairman
pro ten. Prof. w. +. McCarron, OF
Ooltewah, County Supt. Of Public
Schools, and Rev. b. 4. Howard, Of
Brentwood, Coroner. You will notice,
Mr.. Editor, that there is but n pri-
vate among the above list of officers,
the rest having titles, but as the other
is a man of long service and is equally
worthy We will designate him by the
familiar sobriquet Of cousin" Pleas.
Matthews.
Geo. o. Cate, the retiring chairman,
has served the county in that capacity
for seven years with marked ability
and general satisfaction. He has been
more especially commended for his
financial ability. Mr.. Guthrie, who
was elected upon the retirement OF
ESQ. Cate, is IN old and highly respec-
ted citizen who, il is believed, will
make an efficient Chairman.
Though have stated that there is no
news from this county of general In
terest, ! must modify that by saying
that Ooltewah has passed through one
of the most interesting religious reyi-
walls ever experienced in the county.
The meetings were commenced on the
9TH inst. and conducted principally by
Rev. L. w. Lowe, Of Granger county
The interest at first as has been usual
here for some years, was very limited,
but gradually increased, demanding
the assistance of other ministers, among
whom were the Revs. Hambright, Par
rotU and Dunn, and not least of whom
in this family Of reyivalists might be
mentioned our felloW-citizen james
Seige'. The meeting continued until
the 2lst inst, closing with an enroll
ment of twenty or more conversions
and mary seekers; verifying in the
first instance the promise that lie will
in no wise turn away those that come
unto him-snG for the consolation OF
others he has said, BLESSED are they
that mourn for they shall be comfort
ed" There is much that might be
said upon this subject, Ir. Editor, but
[ feel unequal to the task. God i'll hi,
tender mercy has blessed Il comlmu-
nifty, and above all things unusual III
these revivals, this blessing has come,
not in the whirlWind but in the "stilI
| small voice of Hin who spoke as never
man spoke"-and the impress of His
divine power is felt in the hearts of oul
people. Skepticism must seek the 81
lent c%loisters of the back room before
this mighty o~utpouring of the Holy
| Spirit. In common with all I trusl
the Impressions made may never b(
erased, and that the influence, like tho
| gentle wave from the pebble dropped
in mid ocean may extend until The
last ripple will be felt W hen God come,
to make up his jewels.

The Utah women are beseiging the
White House and button-holing Mrs.
Hayes concerning the onti-polygamy
bill. They say $4,000 women will lose
happy homes and places as honored
wives if the law were enforced. One
woman said she had two boys, and, as
Il second wife, she would be deprived
of home and her boys of nome and in
heritance. 1t has, perhaps, never oc-
CURED to her that this usually happens
to women who take up with another
