The Tennessee Tragedy.

AS stated in yesterdays GAZETTE, Gencr-
al Joseph A. Mabry, Major Thomas O'Con-
nor and Joseph A. Mabry, jr, were killed in
a shooting afiray at Knoxville. The diff
Guilty began at the fair grounds by General
Mabry threatening to kill Major O'Connor.
The cause of the difficulty was an old reud
about the transfer Of some property from
Mabry to O'Connor Later in the day Ma
bry sent word to O'Connor that he would
kill him on sight. Next morning o. Connor
was standing i'll the door of the Mechanics
National Bank, of which lie was president.
Mabry and man walked down Cav street
on the opposite side. O'Connor stepped
into the bank, procured shotgun, took de-
liberate aim at Gen. Mabry and fired. Ma
Dry fell dead. As he fell O'Connor fired
again, the shot taking effect in Mabry's
thigh. OConnor then got another shotgun.
AT this time Joseph A. Mabry, jr., son of
Gen Mabry came down the street. He was
not seen by O'Connor until he was within
forty feet of him, when he fired a shot from
pistol, the ball taking effect in O'Connor's
right breast, passing through the body near
the heart. The instant Mabry fired O'Con-
nor turned and discharged the shotgun ut
him, the load taking effect in young Mabry's
right breast and side. and he fell pierced
with twenty buckshot. O'Connor fell dead
without struggle. Young Mabry tried to
rise, but.fell back dead
The whole tragedy occurred within two
minutes, and neither of the three spoke af-
ter ne was shot. General Mabry had about
thirty buckshot in his body. Two bystand-
ers were painfully wounded with buckshot
General Mabry and his son Joseph were
acquitted few days ago of the murder of
Moses Lusby and Don Lusby, father and
son, whom they killed q few weeks since.
VIM. Mabry was killed by Don Lusby last
Christmas Major Thomas O'Connor was
president OF the Mechanics National Bank
and was the wealthiest man in the State.

going to give Massey and Barbour full

nearly all the republicans are straightouts.

crossing favorably. The corn is down bad

ronlpcls CONSUMERS to pay two prices Tor all

them to pay high salaries to thousands OF
spies and detectives, whose duty, besides
Watching farmers to see whether they sell 4
Leaf of tobacco to any one excepta licensed

all the internal revenue officers, whose high
priced occupation would be gone were the
system abolished, endorse his support of the
Durlcnsome and nefarious, and totally un-
necessary tax as the annual revenue of the
Government is more than hundred mil

fraudulent as they are. But the vast ma

THE GOOD Of the many is the object OF
democracy. There are many farmers in
Virginia, but very few manufacturers. And
yet "a better democrat than Ben Hill is in
favor of a protective, and opposed to Il rev.
enue, tariff, and so are all his followers,
white and black alike. That the negroes
are so is accounted for by their ignorance,
by Mahoncs money and promises. and by
their pIejudiced opposition to everything
supported by their white neighhol:; but
why white Nirginians should he so is hard
10 tell, when protective tariff only benefits
the few owners OF manufactures in the
State, at the expense Of all the other pco-
pie, who, by il, arc compelled to pay Il
double price for almost everything they
consume, and when they know that rev.
cnue tariff has doubled the price of labor in
England, and reduced TO one half the cx-
pcnse Of living there since the system was
adopted in that country.
