HENRY COUNTY.

Murder Triai-Thc trops-Badly Injured.
CORRESPONDENCE ofthe Richmond Dispatch
MARTINsvILLE. VA, May l., 80.
May term County Court began yes
.crday. Among the vast quantity oil
business before the court are four
felonies. The trial Of Fred. llairston
for the killing Of Wyatt Moore on the
Sth of last November is now in pro-
gress. He was convicted of murder in
the first degree at the April term' but
a new trial was granted upon come
technicality. 1t is thought the evidence
is not so conclusive as formerly con-
sidered. and there exists a chance to re-
duce the offence to murder in second
degree.
A heavy frost fell throughout this
section last night. causing great destruc-
ton to vegetation, especially on the
low-lands and creek-bottoms.
The wheat crop is the most inferior
this county has known for years. In
some localities there will be little or
none made. Tobacco-plants are small
but plentiful, and the prospect of plant
ing a full crop is favorable. The fly is
quite destructive where the cloth is not
used.
Thomas Lewellyn was thrown from
a mule few days ago, and doubtless
fatally injured by the mule stamping
him, crushing his breast-bone and ribs.
Mr.. Thomas G.. Penn. one Of our
most prominent businessmen, is now
confined to his bed, quite ill.

18th, ria Clark's Crossing, May 18th,
says: Batoche has fallen. The rebels
have fed, being driven from their rifle
pits and ambush at tho point Of the
bayonet. The charge was calamity
made by the Grenadiers. Riel sent a
messenger to General Middleton early
in the day, saying: "If you persist in
firing upon houses containing our
women and children we will massa-
ere the prisoners in our hands,"
The General, in reply, told him to gather
his women and children into one house
and it would not be fired upon. Later
Riel sent an answer thanking Middleton
for the humane promise to save the
women and children, but afterwards as
a general attack was just being made,
he sent another messenger saying he did
not like war, but unless the troops re-
tired his original intention of massacre
ing the prisoners would be adhered to. 1t
was too late, however, as the charge had
been commenced, and in a few minutes
the rebels were scattered and the pris-
oners rescued. The following is list
of casualties to-day: Killed-Captain
John French Scout, Lieutenant Fitch

Correspondence of the Richmond DISPATCH
MAY l3, 1885.
The planters have been rushing their
tobacco into market this week. and yes
terday and to-day loose lots aggre-
eating nearly 100000 pounds were sold
at the different warehouses. There is
great deal of tobacco in the country.
and with the present favorable season
for handling, it is expected that for
some time to come the receipts will be
very heavy.

1t is stated that the strawberry crop
in this section will be very short this
year-a misfortune due to the severity
of the drought of last summer and fall,
which killed out most of the plants. In
all other respects the fruit crop pro-
misses to be an almost unprecedented
one.

of his youth, and it remains to the lot
ofthe Sergeant to take care of him. Mu-
sic has a most remarkable effect upon

able and abiect fright. The mere strains
from passing band on the street will
cause him to shrek in very terror, and
nothing can quiet him until the music

by any instrument. and his cries may
be heard throughout the ncighborhood.

General Grapi's Condition.


NEW YORK. May l3.--Between 10
and 1 o'clock last night q hyperdermiC
injection containing FIVE drops Of NOR
pbine was administered to General
Grant. This quantity Of opiate usually
neutralizes the constant pain IN the
throat, so that the patient is able to
sleep. This was not the result last
night. The General during the day had
talked too much with visitors. The
air during his MONDAY ride was chilly.
His throat had swollen considerably,
and the pain was so increased that the
usual opiate did not produce the usual
result. The General found no sleep
until 3 o'clock this morning. At that
hour he slept and continued to do so,
with breaks of wakefulness, until be-
tween s and 9 O'Clock this morning.
At Q o'clock he aroused and was
dressed. Increased swelling Of the
throat is to-day noticeable. and accord
ingly Colonel Fred. Grant says :
Father is not so well this morning as
he was yesterday morning."
GRANTS TROUBLE on THE IN
CREASE.
NEW YORK, May Ill 4. NJ
The pain in General Grants throat in
creased so much that he had to discon-
tinue his work on his book, after sew
eral attempts. The fact is the trouble
is on the increase. The doctors unani-
mously agree that the cancer is
making very marked progress. DIR.
Douglas hopes to prevent a recurrence
of the trouble of last night, and will,
he thinks, probably remain all night.
The sum total is, the General is worse.

LONDON, May l3.-A riot occurred
TINS afternoon between a mob and the
police for the possession of the Nelson
monument in Trafalgar Square. About
10000 men had assembled in the square
to make a demonstration against the
Governments budget proposals to in
crease the duties on spirits and beer.
The crowd was very unruly, large
portion of it consisting Of an ele-
ment on the search for sport. The
police found themselves unable to
maintain order, and the pressure
on the speakers and resolution
readers compelled them to mount
the pedestal of the Nelson monument,
when from this emincnce the speeches
were resumed. They were rendered in
audible to the audience addressed by
the uproar among the roysterers. The
police interviewed to secure silence for
the orators, and then a great struggle
ensued between the mob and the police
for possession of the monument. The
row lasted nearly an hour, and the
promoters Of the meeting and the
police were finally compelled to re-
tire, leaving the crowd singing in
triumph "Rule Britannia. Soon after
the mob had compelled the speak
ers to leave it surged down to the front
Of the National Club. which faces Ira
falgar Square. W. c. Every person
noticed entering or leaving the Club
building was mobbed. The attitude Of
the crowd was so menacing that the
Club doors were closed and messenger
was dispatched to Scotland Yard for adj
Gitional police. At o'clock the riot
ers were still in full possession of Ira
falgar Square, and Northumberland ave-
nue. was also occupied by mob ofmany
thousands. The police by this time had
been largely reinforced ; had charged a
number Of times upon the mob, and had
made several arrests.
