JEFFERSON, May 4.-John Williams, a
negro who was formerly living at Gilmer,
Texas, was arrested a short distance from
town this morning, charged with stealing
$500 three years ago. He has kept out of
the way of the officers from that time
until this morning, when he was arrested
without any trouble. He confessed to the
stealing but said he gave the money back
to the party from whom he got it,

A MISSISSIPPI TRAGEDY.
An Impromptu Duel in Which an Editor
and Citizen are Killed.


and Citizen are Killed.
New ORLEANS, May IF. l.. Maj tin,
publisher of the New Mississipian, sends
the Picayune the following account of the
tragedy at jackson yesterday: Editor
Martin was returning to his Office from
his dinner at about O'Clock, when he was
met by General Adams and a friend, who
were proceeding towards Martins home.
An eye witness, waiter named Johnson,
who was standing near, states that Adams
stopped Martin and engaged him
in conversation for about a
minute, when Adams drew his
pistol and fired, knocking Martins hat
off. Adams second shot brought Martin
to his knees. The latter experienced
considerable difficulty in drawing his pis-
tol. but finally succeeded, and he fired
rapidly. The third shot by Adams caused
Martin to fall fiat on his back. After a
few seconds, however, he partially rose,
and, steadying himself on his elbow,
shot Adams through the heart, killing him
instantly. Martin lived few minutes
only. Owing to the fact that Martin is
believed to have received four shots while
only three chambers of Adams pistol
were empty, some suspicion attaches
to Ned Parrish, Adams friend. and an in
ves'igation will be held.
Martin, though only % years of age,
stood at the head of Mississippi journal
ism. General Adams was between 50 and
20 years of age, and was one of Missis-
sippi's most distinguished men.

Tuesday. No communication nor
transportation could be had till We'd
nesday. Bridgeport was shut in from
the other parts of the world. The
train which arrived from New Haven
early Monday morning could 60 no
farther and the passengers, about one
hundred, had to stop over till We'd
nesday; good for them that the Rail-
road company paid for their lodging
&c. On Wednesday a steamer was
sent from Bridgeport to New York
and on its return brought the first
New York papers that had reached the
city since Sunday. Telephone and
telegraph wires we're impaired so that
to get news from Boston to New York
the message had to be cabled to Lon
don and thence to New York. A
Bridgeport man who sent a message to

it was "wednesday telegraphed to

Five hundred deaths were reported
in New York city awaiting burial on
account of the storm. In many
places those who were not comfortably
situated froze to death. There were
others who had no fuel and thereby
had to burn whatever they could
procure for the time to keep alive.
Men in Bridgeport offered $50 for q
ton of coal but could not get it hauled.
The markets on Tuesday morning
were exhausted of their supply.
Several drunken men were found hall
buried in the snow almost chilled to
death. Business men gave IS cents
an hour to have snow shoveled from
before their doors. All the factories
had to stop because their supply Of
coal was exhausted. Natives sixty
and seventy years of age say they
have never seen any thing to equal
this storm. The people in the North
West are no longer the only victims
of the terrible billiards. for the East
can boast of such an unwelcomed
visitor; yet since it is in the provi-
dence of God to send it we will try to
make the best of the situation. While
we are experiencing such horrible
weather we hear the peach trees in
North Carolina are laughing as if to
mock US in their blooms. G.. L. B.

citizen of Jonesboro, was taken home
sick February 9th, and on Friday,
February oath, breathed his last. He
was employed for quite while as a
farmer near the town, where he made
snug living. He was a loving hus-
band and a good citizen. Rev. E.
W. Dix was telegraphed for, but did
not arrive in time for the funeral
which would have taken place at his
old home at 3 o'clock. The brothers
of the Zion Wesley church put him
away in nice style. He leaves a wife.
two sons, and one daughter, and a
host of friends to mourn their loss.
The family and friends have our
