From the Marietta (GaJ Journal.

the coal mine, who last week, before going
down into the mine, told several persons
that you'll have to bring dead negro out
of here directly" He said he was going to
kill a certain darkev down in the mine. The
convict passed on into the dark mine, extn-
guished the light in the passage, and with a
pick in one band and long, sharp knife in
the other he waited in niche in the side
OF the wall for the approach Of the
convict whom he had threatened TO kill.
He came, and the would be assassin. with
uplfted pick attempted TO slaughter the
man he di-hlted, but he was seen by the
other convict, who caught the pick and. be-
ing the stronger Of the two, he wrested il
from the grasp of the other and with fenr
full swing, he drove the pick into the side
Of the convict, which penetrated the right
lung And he who tried to play the role Of
an assassin was himself brought out
OF the mine-not dead-but alive
with fair prospect Of recovery.
notwithstanding the CHASTITY hole
made in his side by the pick in the hands of
the convict who defended his own life.
