From the Lafayette AdYertiser.l
On last Saturday evening, the 25th
instant, an attempt was Hsa4e to throw
the west boand Texas passenger train,
over itbe Morgan road frem the track,
which was frustrated only blythe vigil
aRee and energy of the engineer. The
place selected for this horrible design
was in the parish of Iberia, between
ST. Martin aud Cade stations. III sp-
pears that a cross tie had been placed
across the track resting en- the nails,
aud spiked or staked to keep it in
position. We learn that more than
two hundred passengers We're % the
train, and the escape appears. in the
light vi a miracle. The obstruction
was put. on the track where the read
bed is from fifteen to twenty feat in
height, near the Laselle eoalee, and
here trains are accustomed to slack ~,
and this, taken in connection with the
fact that the moon Mas shining, ac-
counts for the escape. AS it was, in
spite Of the utmost exertions of the
engiaeer TO step the train, the pilot
sbruek and passed a few feet over the
tic, throwing the whole weight. Of the
engine upon it; a jack screw had to be
used 10 remove tie obstacle, causing a
delay Of more than an bour.
The en9rnlity Of this crime cannot
be oyerrated; words altogether fail to
describe its Nervousness, and it sur
prises aud grieyes US to know that
such savage, lBhunan creatures, as the
authors Of thissnurderous attempt are,
lave aud breathe in this country. The
Morgan company viii, DO doabt, offer
a reward looking TO the discovery aud
eoRyictionaof the otfenders-this, how
ever, ought 10 engage the attention Of
all good citizens, for who IS safe when
snch criminal spirits roam at large H

SUDDEN DEATH
OF a Younx Man in an UnenvIabIe Place
Last Night.

Last nigh: about 1890 o'clock young
man of twenty, named Charles Bunting, went
10 the house of Miss Pauline Livingstone on
Winchester street, in order to remain for the
night. Going to room with one of
the women, he was suddenly taken with
violent pain in his eide. He lay down upon
the bed, com planned of feeling very uuwell
and asked the woman to feel his breast.
She did so and was alarmed at The
strong palpitation OF his heart. He
got up, sat by a window and asked
her TO get some water aud throw it
over him. This she did, but the shower
BATH instead of relieving him, rendered him
senseless, and soon af.erwsrd he died. Dr..
Williford was sent for, but the man was dead
before be arrived. Bunting was an ordinary
looking young fellow, dressed in dark jeans
pants, brown check Cashmere vest and brown
coat.
except what was contained in two letters,
written in a good female hand found in his
pocket. Evidently they we're written by a
very respectable young lady, who loved him,
az they bresthe undisguised affection
for him. The first one is dated
Jacksonville, ILL.,, June rs, 1882. She ad-
dresses him rs "Dear Little Charlie" speaks
of anxiously awaiting 4 letter. She tells
him he must come TO see her in July, as she
is sick 10 see him. She naively asks him if
he is making SAT month cooking why he
don't come 20 see her, and saws she would
give dollar if he would come up this sum-
mer. 1t was very nice, sweet letter, and
was signed Ollie E. Thompson.
The other letter is from the same young
lady and is dated July Is, 1882. She had
lust received letter from him and speaks of
her gladness st hearing from him She
promises 10 send him her picture as soon as
she has it taken. She says she IS sorry his
mother died. and wants very much "to see
his dear sweet soft little face again." 1t is
pity the young man did not pay more atten-
lion TO such influences and he would not
have died as be did. Esquire Spelman was
summoned TO hold the inquest. The verdict
rendered was that he came to his death from
heart disease.
