A Mississippi Tragedy.

NEW ORLEANS, La, May 2.-F. L. Mar
tin, publisher ofthe Ne,O Mississippian, sends
the Picayuae the following account of the
tragedy at Jackson yesterday: Martin was
returning to his Office from his dinner at
about two o'clock when he was met midway
between his home and his Office by General
Adams and friend, who had left the post
Office q fsw minutes earlier and were pro-
ceeding towards Martins home. An eye
witness, Walter Johnson, who was standing
near, states that Adams stopped Martin and
engaged him in conversation for about
minute, when Adams drew his pistol and
fired, knocking Martins hat of. Adams
second shot brought Martin to his knees
The latter experienced considerable difficult
ty in drawing his pistol, but finally succeed
ing he fired rapidly A third shot by
Adams caused Martin to fall fat on his back
After few seconds, however, he partially
rose aud steadyng himself on his elbow shot
Adams directly through the heart, killing
him instantly. Martin lived few minutes
only, remarking to Charles Campbell, Il am
dead man." Owing to the fact that Mar
tin is believed to have received four shots
while only three chambers OF Adams pistol
we're empty, some suspicion attaches to Md
Parrish, Adams friend, and an investigation
will be held. Martin. though only % years
of age. stood at the head of Mississippi jour
nslism. Gen. Adams was between 90 and
20 years ofage and was one of Mississppi's
most distinguished men.

In the House yesterday an estimate from
the Navy Department OF the cost of the re-.
pair of the sea wall at the naval hospital at
Norfolk, va, was referred TO the appropria-
lions committee q favorable report was
presented from the committee on public

well, deceased Mr. Yost introduced bill
for relief of the heirs of II. c. Boyd, deceased.
In the House to- DAY the Senate bill proVid.
ing for a light house on Newport News
Middle Ground was passed, but not until
the clause for the requisite appropriation
had been stricken out. The House bill ap
propriated $50 900, the Senate bill $50, 900.
The member who moved to strike out the
appropriation clause said the money could
be provided by one of the regular appropri-
alton bills.
This was the day, according to some of
the newspapers of this city, on which either
the Blair educational bill Or its substitute,
the Grain bill, would be reported By the
House committee on education. But, as
usual, the committee had no quorum, and
neither of the bills referred to was even con-
sidered. MIR. Gambler, the chairman of the
committee, told the GAzETTE's correspond
ens that while he would accept the appro.
priation provided by the Blair bill. be would
not do SO if federal authority accompanied
it, But he, too, like every body else about
The Capitol, believes that nothing will be
done with tho bill by the 50th Congress.
The House to-day at an early hour 70.

SOME PEOPLE have been puzzled Mt the
fact that Gen. Malone is so bent Oh having
a solid Sherman delegation from Virginia to
the national republican convention, that to
attain that object he has risked the very dis
ruption OF his party in the State. ihe pnz
zle is solved, and By the General himself.
He says his sole reason for wanting the Ohio
statesman in the White House is, TO use his
own words, that. as President MIR. Sherman
will restore confidence to the business in
terests of the country and set forward the
wheels of progress! Il is to be hoped that
such sincere and unadultered patriotism may
be satisfactory. That it will be properly
appreciated goes without saying.

THE SPEECH Mr.. ingalls, made in The sen,
ate Yesterday, in which he reiterated his
eroundless charges against the legality OF
MIR. Cleyeland's election and the loyalty OF
Generals Mcclellan and Hancock, was as
partisan as sectional, and as malignant as 1t
could possibly havebeen. Mr.Noorhees' reply
was strong, but coarse, and in i'll accord
with the manner hat formerly characterized
Senatorial debate. The speech Of Mr.
Euslis, who replied to the statement Mr..
ingalls, made in reference to tine mode in
which elections are conducted in Louisiana,
was the only one ofthe three referred to that
in furmcr times would have snlted the place
in which they were delivered. Among South
ern Senators there are sone at least who, in
their official capacity, still observe the dig
nifty aud decorum with which the proceed
inps of the Senate were conducted in the
older and better days of the republic.
