 News reached this place this week that John NorrelI was shot and killed by Robert Adams at Wilmott, last Saturday, and that Levi Norrel and man by the name of MoseIey were also wound ed by the same party, at the same time. The shooting was done with a Winchester rife. The par tioulars are not definitely known here.
 A eolored man by the name of Eberneezcr Smith, was shot from ambush last Saturday night. His horse was killed, and Smith badly wounded. Smith lived on MT. C. T. II arris' place, ten or twelve miles Sonth-East of this place, and was on his way home from church when he was shot. Suspicion n rests on n young negro in the neighborhood, but up to our last information no arrests had been made.
 The Jury Tn the Ben. l.. Carpen- ter case-an account of which case we gave in our last issue-was on ly out about three hours, when they returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree. The prisoner was sentenced to bt hanged, by the special Judge Hon. w. F. Slemons, on Saturday evening last. The day fixed fol the haging is the 22nd of Nov 1895. The prisoner contendec that he was innocent, but said i the people of Arkansas would b' satisfied with nothing less than hit being hung, he could stand it. Al appeal to the Supreme Court vii be taken, and if a pew trial is no granted by that tribunal an effor will probably be made to have th' sentence commutel by the Cover nor.
