STARVATION IN TEXAs.-A Buffalo, N.
Y, dispatch says: The Rev. John Brown,
a Presbyterian clergyman of Albany, Texas,
is in the city in the interest of 10O, 600 starv-
ing families, representing 100000 people,
who, he says, are starving in the drought
stricken district of Northwest Texas. APP
peals were made by him yesterday in diff
ferent churches. Mr.. Brown says that the
suffering and distress caused by the drought,
which has existed for the past fifteen months,
was even greater than at Charleston, but
the railroad authorities who owned land
which. they wanted to sell to settlers con-
spired to hush up the real condition of the
people lest it should interfere with emigra-
tion.
Thousands of families had not eaten meat
this summer, and water is being carried
thirty miles for household use. The object
of his mission, he says, is to procure 100000
bushels of seed wheat, but owing to the
Charleston disaster, he had thus far only
received tens where otherwise he might
have obtained thousands of dollars. The
task was greater than the people of Texas
could perform, and in the name of humani-
ty mercy and charity, he appealed to the
charitable public to help the starving null
titude.

MURDER TRIAL In FA1RF1ELD.-On Fri

MURDER TRIAL In NFAIRFIELD.-On Fri
day morning, in the Court of General Ses-
sions of Fairfield county, the case of the
State againstJa Johnston, charged with
murder was takenup. From the evidence it
appears that there was i'll feeling between
the prisoner and Mr.. Free, on account of
the alleged intimacy between Mr.. Free and
the mother of tho prisoner. Some time last
December James Johnston was shot and Sc
verely wounded by Mr.. Free, of which he
was found "not guilty" by jury at the
February term of the court. Threats of TAX
ing life had been made on both sides, and on
the Goth of May the threats of James John
ston were carried out, and resulted in the
death of Mr.. Free. After the homicide
James Johnston left the county and re-
ward af $3.50 was offered by the Governor.
He was captured some months ago and
lodged in the county Jail to await trial at
the present term of the court. After an
absence of about twenty-five minutes the
jury returned with a verdict of "guilty, with
q recommendation to the mercy of the
court" The prisoner showed considerable
feeling during the progress of the trial.
On Saturday Judge Aldrich sentenced
johnson to be hanged on the 18th Of October,
