Further, the statement is that Drs. Boggs

A Diabolical Deed.

CHATTANOOGA, December N.-A few
days ago some miscreant placed an OBJ.
struction across the Queen and Crescent
tracks, near Purvis, Mississippi. The
passenger train dashed into it, and was
ditched. The engineer was killed, sew.
eral cars were wrecked, and a number of
passengers were injured. The railroad
detectives succeeded in tracing the deed
TO merchant Puryis.
It was ascertained that his cattle had
been killed by the train.
He had appealed for damages. and
failing to receive it was embittered
against the road and took this means of
wreaking revenge. His con assisted
him. The populsce were driven to fury
over his diabolical deed and to day at
daybreak took him from jail and hanged
him. The wretch confessed the deed
before he was hanged and exculpated his
son. His name has not been learned.

ceed Brayton, who ought to 60 if dem
ocratic government will recognize the

Of all the men in South Carolina Maj
Bradley is the fttest for the position
sought for him. His character as man
and his record as true blue, upwaver-
ing, earnest democrat are beyond criti-
cism, and bis capacity can not be doubt
ed. The same might be said of many
other men, but the one peculiar qualihca-
ton that makes Maj. Bradley the most
worthy is the place he holds in the affec-
tion and esteem of the mountain people
among whom the government has en-.
countered the greatest difficulties and
loss during the last ten years. No man
in the State is 80 generally known, liked
and trusted in the moonshine districts.
He is known as brave and honest man
inAexible in the discharge of his duty
but preferring always to use mild meth
DDS while they are admissible or proper.
As collector his purpose would be to
prevent violations of the revenue laws
rather than to permit and punish them.
His appointment would be the most sat
isfactory assurance to the people that new
methods are to be adopted and that the
evils justly complained of in the admin
istration of the revenue department here
are to be removed. We believe Major
Bradley could ride through the noun
tains alone and unarmed and eliminate
illicit distilling without the firing of a
shot or the expenditure of dollar. He
understands the people, aud they under

If we are to be rid of the internal

day, about half.past ! p. M, John G.
Ferguson shot and killed Arthur Benz
dicte in the store Of Charles Auerback.
The ball entered the body just below
the heart and death ensued in fifteen
minutes. Ferguson is in Jail, having
been captured as soon as the shooting
took place by Policeman William Riley.
Ferguson was under the influence of
whiskey when the shooting took place.
Both parties are white and have borne
good characters, and both were quiet
men. No cause for the shooting can be
found out, except that about week ago
Benidicte boug ht load of wood from
Ferguson about which they disagreed.
1t seems that Ferguson went into the
store and demanded pay for his wood
and Benidicte denied that be owed for
it, whereupon Ferguson shot him down;
Benidicte was Auerback's clerk.-Special

There is Death in the Cup.

In 8 recent letter to the Rev. A. Coke
Smith as to the effect of drunkenness
upon the criminal statistics of this State,
the Hon. J. B. Kershaw, Judge of the
Fifth Circuit, writes as follows: 81 do
not consider myself as fully qualified to
give you any statistical information in
relation to the effect of alcoholic drinks
upon society, as manifested in the Courts
of Justice, as cause of crime. have
heretofore kept no record of the cases
coming under my observation, with Il
view to this question. l can. therefore,
only answer from a general impression
derived from observation and experience,
both as a member of the Bar and as a
Judge, with some approximation, no
doubt, to accurate proportion, but with.
out The data to verify the statement. |
am able to say that / believe drunken.
ness to be the cause, on an average, of
not much less than nine .tenths of the
crimes of violence now prevailing among
ths whites of the State. In relation to
the colo,ed race, other causes occur more
frequently to induce crimes of this sort
than among the whites. Drunkenness,
too, is not very prevalent vice among
the negroes, and hence I think that the
proportion of crime attributable to that
cause is considerably less than in the
case of the other part of the population.
E. "Wbile, perhaps, nine.tenths of other
crimes are committed by negroes, homi-
cides and kindred crimes are more fire.
quently committed by the other class. /
have no doubt that when the other offen-
ces, such as burglary, larceny and the
like, are committed by the whites, they
are largely, though indirectly, attribu-
table to the degrading effects of drunk.
enness. To some extent also this may
operate in the same way upon the other
race, but to what extent, in either case,
this is to be considered as cause of
crimes of the character last mentioned l
am unable to estimate"
