An excursion reached the city from
Danville on last Monday While on
the way it seems that tickets were be-
ing collected, Mr.. j. O. Horton, the
travelling passenger agent, was assist
ing the conductor.
An excursionist, Mr.. Price by name
was drinking from a bottle. and when
asked what it was he said it was beer.
Mr. Horton said that no beer could be
sold on the train. Mr.. w. Hewlett
Jones explained that none had been
sold. This had been brought by the
persons who had it. He was told that
the beer and men would be left in
Richmond.
When he returned later, he asked
MessFs. Jones and Price what was the
matter with them any way, in a man
ner that they regarded as insulting
anG as he had already declared he
would put them of at Richmond and
not allow them to return it was under
stood that he intended it as it was
taken.
Mr.. Price said, "You're too DR.
| fresh" AS he spoke Mr.. Horton struci
him in the face and he had no sooner
done that than Mr.. Jones struck Mr.
Horton two blows in quick succession
knocking him through the doorway.
Upon the arrival OF the train in Rich
mOnd warrants were sworn out for Mr.
Jones and Mr.. Price, and Mr.. Price
swOre out one against Mr.. Horton.
The parties were bailed for their ap
pearance at Amelia Court-hOuse, Fri

nized. It is all life with her.
Mary Barnes is working away within
the gloomy confines of the penitentia-
ry, patiently awaiting the time when
the Governors pardoning power will
be invoked in her behalf and she set

A pure and lovely child
He gave it to our keeping
To cherish undefiled.
But just as it was opening,
To the glory of the day,
Down came the heavenly Gardener
And took our bud away.
When we see the precious blossom.

Rudely taken from our bosom,
How our hearts almost despair
Round it's little grave we fingered,
Till the setting sun is low,
Feeling all our hopes have perished
With the flower we cherished so.
