men beat through the corn. Some of the
pursuers saw him in the distance and start
ed forward with yell. Taylor was soon
lost to sight, and then the report of a re-
volver was heard and the crowd gathered
near the creek. One elbow of the man
they were after was seen 10 project from the
water. The body was found with a bullet
through the heart, and by his side
was a revolver with one chamber empty.
The body of the murderer now lies at the
Jail awaiting the Coroner's inquest, which
will be held tomorrow. Miss Mitchells
body lies at the home of her parents. She
was q bright, handsome young lady, of re-
spectacle character and respected by all.
The mother of the murdered girl has since
lost her reason and is a raving maniac.

PHILADELPHIA, August 15th.-NOt since
the day when Maud 5. trotted the fastest
three consecutive heats ever trotted-2;l2!,
2131, 2124-has there been such an attend
ance at the Belmont Course as was gath
cred to day, when Jay-Eye-Sce and Phallas
attempted to break the record made by
Maud s., and 2139. the best for a stallion,
made by Phalas himself at Chicago. The
mile records were not broken, but the time
made by both horses more than made up
the expectations of a majority of the spec
tators. Jay-Eye-Sec beat his record for
three-Quarters of mile and but for a losing
break just after entering the last quarter,
without doubt would have clipped a sec
ond or more off Maud SIS fastest time
Phallas failed to equal his own best per
formance, but he trottCd the three fastest
consecutive heats ever recorded by stall
lion, the slowcst being better than the best
record of any other stallion. The attend
ance was from 10000 10 1900 people.
The Governor of Texas to be Arrested.
GALVESTON (Tex.l, August l5th.-A.war-
rant was to-day issued by United States
Commissioner Spann for the arrest of John
Ireland, Governor of Texas, for 4 violation
of Section $50 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States Emil Francois, upon
whose deposition the warrant is issued, was
convicted in 1873, under the anti-miscege-
nation statute of Texas, and sentenced 10
five years in the Penitentiary. On the 1lth
inst Judge Sabine, of the United States
Court, granted n hearing to Francois on
writ of habeaS corpus. When the case was
called for hearing the State announced that
the Governor had granted a full pardon to
Francois, whereupon the writ was dis
missed, and an order of the Court entered
discharging Francois. The next day Fran
co.'s refused to accept the Governors
pardon, alleging that it did not
restore him to citizenship, and he
preferred rather to rely on the judgment
rendered i'll the dismissal of a writ and dis
charged from custody by a Court, as the
best evidence of his liberty and citizenship.
In his affidavit, Francois deposcs that Ire
land, as Governor of Texas, with the Pen
itentiary officials, conspired and confeder
ated together for the purpose of depriving
him of the rights and privileges secured by
the Constitution and laws of the United
States. Francois is pure white He mar
ried a colored woman whose complexion
is fairer than his own. The State statute
under which he was convicted provided
only for the punishment of a white person
in cases of miscegnation, hence his claim OF
being Disseminated against. The warrant
for the arrest of the Governor was placedin
the hands OF Marshal Tracy tonight The
