Homicide In Virginia.

PETERSBURG, VA, Aug. 49,
News reached here to-day of a
homicide in Dinwlddie county
yesterday afternoon growing out
of dispute about a bill. Golden
Elan had purchased some goods
from a merchant in the country,
for which A. o. Pyne had become
responsible. The bill becoming
due Pyne requested Elan to settle
it, which, it is said, he declined to
do. Pyne then proposed that Elan
should pay One.half of it and he
the other half, to which proposition
ELAN would not accede. 1t is also
said that Pyne then proposed that
he should pay all of the bill, and
that Elan should do service for
him tor the other half. Elan, 1t is
alleged, would not consent to any
such arrangements. Then quarrel
ensued. Finally Pyne advanced
towards Elan in a threatening
manner, when Elan told him to
keep his distance or he would shoot
him. Pyne paid no heed to Elam's
threat, and continued to advance
towardg him. Elan drew his
pistol and shot Pyne, the ball en-
terlng near the heart, causing
death. Just before he fell Pyne
struck Elan in the face three times.
Pyne is former resident of this
city, where he has brother, NJ.
w. Pyne, who is a prominent citi.
zen. Elan had not been arrested
at last accounts.

A Daring Robbery.
OVER $4,000 WORTH OF DIAMONDS
AND SILVER PLATE STO.
LEN IN CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE fact
has just been made public that one
of the most daring and successful
rObberles that has occurred In this
city tor a number of years was per.
petrated Wednesday night at the
residence of George w. Wigs,
1886 Michigan avenue. Over 49,
600 worth OF diamonds, quantity
of silver plate, and numerous arti'
Giles of fine jewelry we're taken.
The robbery was carefully planned
and gkillfully executed, and the
most jealous work on the part OF
the police has thus far failed to re-
veal even the slightest clew as to
the perpetrators Of the deed. The
thieves obtained entrance through
a rear basement window, and went
through the house in careful and
systematic manner. They pried
open every closet and drawer, and
took every article of value that they
found. A large amount OF heavy
silver plate, two gold watches, two
sets of diamond earrings, two pairs
of diamond bracelets, a diamond
breastpin and number OF rings
were among the articles taken.
Although the thieves entered the
bedroom where the different men,
bers of the family were sleeping,
no ono was awakened, and moth
ing was known of the robbery IN
til the following morning.

Another Flood.

A special dispatch to the Sun
from Wheeling, w. Va, gives in
teresting particulars of a food iu

VIRGINIA DISMAL SWAMP.
A REMARKABLE LAKE LYING AL
MOST on THE TOP OF
A HILL,

Ponder on this marvellous fact
says a correspondent: The lake Of
the Dismal Swamp in Virginia
three miles by two and a halt 10
extent and from seven to fifteen
feet in depth, Is situated on the
side aud almost on the top OF q bill,
and yet it creates by overflow all
around it for about 1000 square
miles one of the densest aud dark
est morasses on the surface OF the
earth.
In 1863 George Washington sur
veyed the Dismal Swamp, and dis
covered that the western side was
much higher than the eastern, and
that rivers run out of the swamp,
and not into il. He then wrote
that the swamp was "neltber a
plain nor a hollow, but a hillside"
A member OF the National Geo
Logical Survey recently entered the
Dismal Swamp, proceeding west
ward from the Dismal Swamp
Canal toward the lake, and found
that the rise of the land was FIVE
and a half feet in seven miles.
We met this gentleman, Mr..
Atkinson, within the bounds OF the
swamp, and on hearing his state
ment asked him, "Could the lake
be lowered and the swamp drained
with such an incline 7" "Certain'
ly," be said" at is a very decd
ed watershed. An opening from
the lake to the tide, on the Eliza
beth River on one side and the
Pasquotank on the other, would
b ave a fall of % 6-10 feet in a dis
lance OF less than fifteen miles,

Marion township, this county, q
young daughter OF Henry Searfoss,

which none knew the origin, and
which completely baffled the skill
of the attending physicians. Her
malady was such that the body
would at intervals grow as cold as
in death and be covered with green
spots. On last Monday she lost
consciousness and for tblrty.slx
hours was in trance, the warmth
OF her body being the only indica-
ton of life. Tuesday night she
was aroused from her slumber and
told strange story OF what had
occurred to her during her period of
Inconsistencies, IN which she SAID
a man appeared to her, and with
a buggy.wheel showed her how her
injuries came about, after which he
brought a sheet, a bucket and three
bottles containing wine, whlskey
and alcohol, and explained how
these might be used to effect y
cure. Ii they were not used he
warned her that al Z o'clock on the
morning of the next day she would
begin failing, at 4 o'clock in the af'
ternoon deaths approach would be
realised, and at 9 o'clock the next
