WENTWORTH NOT DEAD YET.

Nashville, Nov. 1G, 1870 a. m.-George
X. WhitwOrth, the assassin of Chancellor
Allison, is not dead, but is sinking rapidly
and there is no hope of his recovery. 1t is
generally accepted that he is defaulter,
and that the financial condition of his
Office is in bad shape. The deed of trust
he made last night is taken by the public
as an evidence. Affairs at the Office are
in a tangle and that he failed to obtain n
settlement with Allison of the transac-
tons between them by which he could
have Strengthened up his affairs prompted
him to kill Allison, seeing that in the near
future full exposure would be made. The
amount of the shortage is not stated, but
it is estimated that it will be large. Whit
worth has made an antc-mortem state
ment of the prcsumable causes leading to
the assassination, but the custodians of
the paer refuse to make it public tonight.
A successor to Chancellor Allison will be
appointed by Governor Tuney in Il few
DAYS.
