RailrOaders on the Rampage.
Elizabethton Mountain er.

On last Friday, the Doe River Cove was
the scene of the seyerest fight ever witness
ed in that section of the country. The facts,
as we put them together from flying reports
are these: A man named Henry Simerly had,
on the previous day, been playing cards
with a crowed of darkies from Mills work
above the cove, and claimed that his dusky
competitors instead of winning had stolen
two dollars and fifty cents of his money
The entire crowd Of negroes, comprising
fifteen IN all, were at Toncray's store in the
Cove on the day following, (Friday) when
the said Simerly renewed the accusation. A
stout denial couched in rather emphatic Ian
gUage, was his answer from one fearless
darlzey in particular The lie then passed
back and FORTH and soon the circus opened.
Simerly had seven or eight white men back
Ing him and there were fifteen darkies, all
armed. The bold champion OF the blacks
was knocked down with rock, III the be-
ginning. His companions soon whipped
out their pistols and commenced firing. The
whites followed suit. A general engage
ment then took place and a perfect pande-
mOnium of drunken yells and blasphemous
shouts made the time hideOus. The negroes
were soon put to flight, the whites following
them several miles above the Cove. Strange
TO say, one negro alone was the only person
seriously wounded in the fight, he being
shot through the foot and thigh. Others
were Shot, but not so badly.
