J. II. Wilson Killed by James
RenfrO Last Night.

Particulars were received this morn
ing of the killing of j. P. Wilson, a
planter living near Oollicrville, in this
county, by james Renfro, neighbor
Of the murdered man, who resides but
a short distance from tie scene Of the
tragedy. The following particulars Of
the affair were obtained from a gentle
man who just arrived from the place
where the killing occurred, six
miles north of Collicrville: 1t appears
that the difficulty which occurred be-
tween Wilson and Renfro was about
some dogs owned by Wilson, which
had been prowling around the prem
iles Of Renfro. Both men talked an
grily over the matter for some time,
Wilson finally leaving Renfro
and going to the house procured
a musket and ct once re-
turned to the place where he left
Renfro standing, and remarked that
the matter must be settled up. Suit
ing his action to the words he raised
his musket and fred at Renfro without
effect, whereupOn Renfro drew a Smith
& Wesson revolver and fred four bull
lets into the body Of Wilson, killing
him almost instantly. The deceased
leaves wife and two children. Rem
fro is young man without family.
Rcnfro rode into Collierville early
this morning and surrendered himself
to the proper officials and is now in
custody awaiting trial, which will be
brought before Esq. D. A. Harrell, to-
day.

Tribune, I'll
The Normal Institute is drawing to
a close. We venture to say there is,
not one among the hundreds who have
attended that is not highly pleased
with the proceedings. We see salts
faction portrayed on every counte-
nance. Not only have the teachers
derived much information, but they
have had the pleasure ofmeeting their
colleagues, exchanging views and
making acquaintance.
Aside from the educational benefit
derived, who is it that is not repaid
for his trip by the social intercourse
with his teacher friendsP The SEES
sion has been success in every way.
Everybody is pleased and the teachers
will leave for their homes the latter
part of the week, feeling much i'm
proved in body and mind.
Col. Lockett announced yesterday
that DR.. w. s. Doak would preach at
the NJ. &. Church, South, to night.
His reputation 1s a minister is too

stitute and the public generally are

Announced in another column.
Professor F. l.. Solan delivered his
last lecture but one yesterday morn
ing. He devoted the greater part of
his time to school discipline, and his
sound views, explicitly expounded,
made deep impressions on his hearers.
His fuency Of language and genial
manner combine to make him a pleas
ant talker.
At the second hour one of the best
lectures that has been given during
the course of the Institute, was deliv-
cred by Professor w. p. Garrett, ON
history. He coupled the teaching of
the epochs Of history with geography,
illustrating his words by several touch
ing historical events. He elected the
sympathy and attention Of his
audience, which was proven by the
Requent and hearty applause that
greeted many passages in his thrilling
lecture.
Professor j. NJ. McBryde delivered
his last lecture yesterday on Botany.
His course has been as thorough as
could DO expected In such limited
time, and has been highly beneficial to
those who have heard him.
! Professor e S. Joynes also deliver.

subject Of Composition. This course

it belongs, they having expended

Bar c der. Who Never Drink.

The Ret iler.l
What will our temperance brethren
and sisters say when they hear that
there are scores Of men behind the
bars in this city who never drink a
drop of intoxicants2 Our canvassers
are continually reporting the discov-
cry that this saloonkeeper or that
bartender never drink anything. 1t
gets to be an old story with a man
who has been long among retailers.
Weuever yet heard man advance
temperance or morality as his reason
Tor not drinking. In most cases they
have no other reason TO offer than
they do not like spirits" have no
taste for them" or never did drink
and never wanted to" Of six men
who are near relatives, and who are
members Of a famous tavern keeping
family, four aver that they have never
drank anything, although they are be-
hind their bars most of the time.

That Girl Maud

The misguided girl who kicked up
so much dust here ten days ago by
days doings at a prominent bagnio,
and who so excited several dozen OF
our fast young men by her viyacity
and freshness, still fingers upon the
memory of various admirers, who are
wailing aud gnashing their teeth over
the result of their too free associa-
ton. The history Of the girls career
has as yet been scarcely halt told, and
though her foster-father has caused
his side of the story to be ventilated,
there is still another side, dark one,
too, with the details of which he is
doubtless unfamiliar. 1t is the same
old tale Of silly young females pas
sion for notoriety, hoydenish conduct
during childhood and disposition to
mingle with the boys unguarded and
unrestrained. The poor girls rapid
course, about which so much has been
printed within the past few days, is
only the history of many who fall
from virtue, but who have no one to
reach out hand to help them out of
the depths into which they plunge,
Now that Miss Maud is on the road
toward reformation, the veil Of charity
should be drawn over her and the
sins she has committed.
