MARRIED THE OTHER GIRL.-A Mr.. Will
son, living in the neighborhood OF Yocum
Station, in Lee county, had for quite while
been paying his addresses to Miss Stout
and, his suit prospering, had gone go far to-
ward carrying out his matrimonial inten-
tions as to procure q marriage license. MIR.
Wilson, it seems, having intreDched himself
in Miss Stout's regard, laid siege to the
heart of Miss Allen. She rejected his pro-
posals fatty, until she heard that Miss Stout
had consented to join him in life partner
ship end then, womanlike, she changed her
mind and decided to take him herself So
they repaired to the county seat, had the
license changed, and were made man and
wife then and there. So Miss Stout was left
lamenting, but she doesn't propose to la,
ment. She intends to 60 to law about II

letter from Rappahannock.

Correspondence OF the Alexandria GAzETTE.l
WooDvILLE, Rsppahannock Co., Mar. II.
There was tried before our County Court on
Monday last case of horse stealing, the re-
suit OF which was unusual and unique, it
being the only case known here where a
jury hung, not on the guilt of the prisoner
but on the time of his confinement in the
penitepliary. James Henry Bridget, q
coiored man OF the neighborbood, was
charged with the larceny of d horse belong
ing to the Rev. Mr.. Warden, d Presbyterian
minister on the night of January Cd, last.
The proof wG5 strong and convincing and
the Jury soon agreed up the question OF
his guilt. Some contended for Is years
confinement in the penitentiary, whilst the
others ranged from that down to three years.
Compromise was lried in Snu, aud the jury
was finally discharged and the case contin-
ued. Bridget is a mail cartier from the
Rock Mills tc Culpeper, aud is known as the
most persistent piIlager of heu.rocs's aud
meat-houses in the county.
We regret to announce the death Of John
Coughin, young man living near this place,
few days since. He had the measles and
contracted pneumonia and was sick but q
few days. He was q young man of fine ply
siuue, industrious and we'll thought OF for his
steady habits and strict attention to his du-
ties. He will be missed by his many friends
and more by his father and family. We
have had quite an epidemic Of measles here,
and there have been some deaths from it
owing greatly to improper care and expo
sure.
There is but little said about the coming
May election save az to the treasurer's
place, this being strongly contested for by
two candidates, Brue Wood, of the Salem
neighborhocd, and B. Haddox, of Flint Hill.
These two are both young men and great
democrats, hence the fight will be within
| the party lines. They are we'll known, pop.
uIar and deserving men, and the contest
will be a strong one. But elections like this
cannot be had in this county without the
use of money, and the hoaters are already
casting about to see who has the largest
purse and whose hands will be the most
liberal in opening 1t. Bad state of affairs,
but all the more alarming because it is con.
dition confronting Us and not theory by
any means.
The exodus from this county OF negro
men to Pittsburg has made labor scarce.
More have gone this winter and spring than
usual, and more are fixing to go; and yet
our farmers say they cannot pay more for
farm labor than they have been doing, and
rise in wages is about the only one thing
| that will put stop to this leaving. b.

FOUND MURDERED

A Terrible Crime Comes to Light at
Crockett, East Texas.
Special Telegram TO the Statesman.
CRoCKETT, Tex, March 19.-Mrs. Flynn,
an aged widow lady, was found murdered
at her home last night. The deed had
been committed sometime, as decomposi-
ton had set in. She was struck on the
back of the head, on the hand and just
over the right eye with an old ak which
was found behind the door. The object
of the murder is not known, as she was
supposed to have been in straitened cir
c.mstances. She lived to herself, would
not speak to her neighbors, never opened
the front door or raised the curtains and
rarely ever lighted lamp. She was not
seen at times for weeks, which is the cause
of the body not being found sooner. The
only relationship known is son, whose
whereabouts no one knows. No arrests
have been made, and the crime bids fair
to never be unearthed.

TExARKANA, Ark, March 19.-Jim Ro-

remains were brought to this city, and
This evening we're inferred by Undertaken

by the railroad authorities. The deceased
came from north Arkansas.
District court has been engaged this en-
tire day in the trial of Charles Williams,
colored man, on the charge of murder.
He, with two colored women as his Access
series, are accused of cruelty numbering
white man named A. L. Mccarthy. On
the night of December "a, last, the al
legged murderers and their victim were
confined in the city calaboose, at the time
on charge of disorderly conduct and
the three accused beat MCCARTHY with
beer bottles, from the effects of which he
died soon after. Williams, the leading
character in the crime, was placed on
trial first, and had good counsel, who man
aged his case with skill. The jury, after
remaining out only short time, returned
with verdict of guilty of murder in the
second degree, and forty years in the pen
itentiary. Williams is about twenty years
old, intelligent, and seemed to accept the
result with indifference. Emma Logan,
colored, another of the alleged murderers,
will be placed on trial to morrow.

had made threats to kill Ridgeway unless

balance OF the note in corn, and,
after delivering of the last load
to Pendergrast on Saturday, asked
him if he would now retract his threats.
A quarrel ensued, during the progress OF
