 q have nothing to say about the aftair, further than the charges preferred against me are incompetency. habltual drinking and wilful neglect Of duty, neither of which, in my opfnon, can De legally sustained. I have employed the law firm of Barnes Bros, who have the affair In sole charge"
 The writer then called on Chairman A. b. Barnett of the county democratic executive committee, whom street ru- nor yesterday evening said was engln- eering the impeachment, and asked him for some information about the affair and the names of the petitioners. obtain ing the following meager reply:
 q don't know the names of the peti- tioners save from memory, and expect you had better get them fromS head quarters"
 When asked by the scribe where headquarters were located, the chair man replied "In Governor Oates office at Montgomery"
 It was apparent from the very start that neither side cared to say much for publication hence everything obtainable is published above without comment or criticism.

 Dennis Confession.
 Scottsboro, April 13.-(Special Corre- Spondence.)-The much sought for re- mains of w. D. Cunningham, whom Joel Dennis. his partner in business, confesseS to having killed and thrown in the Ten nessee last December, south of this place, in Jackson county, has at last been found by a steamboat crew near Florence, in the Tennessee river, hang ing on bush. The body was very much decomposed, but papers found in his pockets fully establish his identity.
 Dennis is now in jail for murdering Cunningham. and will now be in dicted and tried for the crime, action by the grand jury at a recent term of court having been postponed on account of there being no proof against Dennis, except his own confession, which would be inadmissble without proof of the corpus delicti. Cunningham was a we'll known young man, who was raised near this place, and had been engaged in the saloon business at McGinnis Ferry for some time before his sudden disap- pearance last December.
 Dennis the man charged with hls murder,s was raised in DeKalb county and is about 35 years old, and Is said to be well connected short time be- fore December last he removed to this county and went into business with Cum ningham, buying an interest in the sa- loon. Cunningham suddenly dfsap- peared, and his continued absence ex- cited the suspicion of his family After days of fruitless searching for Cunning ham, Dennis was arrested and placed Tn jail. Since that time Frank Slower, an uncle of Dennis wife, comes forward and says that Dennis confessed to him that he killed Cunningham and put his body in the river.
