Tragedy at Murfreesboro.

Messrs. Frank b. Selph and f. +.
Fletcher, two young men of high So
cial standing, became engaged in a
personal difficulty at Murfressboro
last Monday morning, in which
Fletcher was shot and instantly killed
by Selph. On Thanksgiving night
a party was given at the opera house
in Murfreesboro, and Fletcher had
charge of the collection of money to
pay the musicians. Selph published
a silly card in the Free Press, critics.
ing the financial management of the
affair, and the difficulty grew out of
that publication. The coroner's jury
rendered a verdict of killing in neces-
sary self defense. The editor Of the
Free Press is generally condemned,
and justly so, for the publication of
the card, which was of such a spiteful
personal nature as should have ins
sured its consignment to the waste
basket in any well regulated printing
Office.
Southern standard. (McMinnville, Tenn.) 1879-current, 1889-12-14

THE remains of the great leader,
chieftain, patriot and statesman,
Jefferson Davis, after lying in state
in the city hall at New Orleans for
several days, where they were viewed
by thousands from all sections of the
South every day, were consigned to
the tomb Wednesday. Memorial
services were held in hundreds of
towns and cities all over the South.
The most prominent of the con-
spicuous figures in the Lost Cause, he
was the last one to pass away. Time
will sweep his calumniators and all
memory of them and their deeds into
oblivion, while jeff Davis fame will
gather new lustre as the years roll by.
He sleeps in the silent embrace of
death, but his memory will be ever
kept green in every true warm heart
of the Sunny S"uth.

Grady's Eloquent Tribute.

Following is an extract from the
Atlanta Constitutions remarks on
the morning of Mr.. Davis death:
Jefferson Davis, first and last presi-
dent of the Southern Confederacy is
dead! AS we write these words a
thousand miles away, the body of the
puissant chieftain, from which the
breath has scarcely parted, lies mute
and motionless beneath the touch
of reverential hands-while in the
regions of the blest, the great soul,
weary of the fretting hindrances of
the flesh, greets friends and comrades
gone before.
And now has passed away the last
of the mighty leaders of the lost
cause! Cobb, Stephens, the kingly
Toombs and the steadfast Hill, Yam
cey, the impetuous gentleman, Lee,
paladin of battle, and Jackson, who
ruled its storm-gone-all gone!
Gone to the great tribunal before
which all things are judged, and to
Him who searcheth all hearts and
measureth to victor and beaten, in
infinite mercy and infinite justice.
Closed the drama amid which they
fought or plead as hrOes-sheathed
the sword, turled the banner, sealed
the record-and their dear names and
fame, but a memory and heritage
to their people! With Him who do
eth all things well, they rest at last!
Jefferson Davis will be mourned in
millions of hearts this day! Govern
ment will not render to him the
pomp and circumstance of a great
death, but his people will give to
him a tribute of love and tears sur
passing all that government could do,
and honoring his memory as earthly
parade could not do He is oul
dead! And from Maryland to Texas
wherever in other states or in other
lands, his people may have wander
ed-wherever dauntless courage is OF
stainless honor made friends-Where
ever they who have suffered are low.
ed and suberp fortitude may touch
the heart or dim the eye-there JEFF
fersOn Davis-GOd bless his name, a,
we write twill re hOa0red and
mOurned today! If, amid the wind:
of the new morning into which hi.
soul has entered, the grief of thi
world may come; he will be conten
to know that his people love him
and loving, mourn! Greater homo
than is his, this people hath not Civ
en-, and can give no more!
