Newport News, Va, Aug. 1S.-Private AlonZo Andrews, of Company I, One Hun- dred and Sixtieth Indiana regiment, was shot and 'kaiflIed by Sam Hall, a negro sa- loon keeper in Bloodfield, negf1, ssettires ment in this city, this afternoon. Private Jacob Altmire, of the same command, was wounded in the left foot by the same ne- gro. Both of the men formerly lived at Elwocd, Ind. 1-e shooting seems to have been unprovoked. Hall was in a buggy when the shooting occurred, and his horse was in gallop He raised up and fired out of the back of the vehicle. The negro was arrested and lodged in the city jail, but the feeling against him was so in- tense that the sheriff took him out of town for safe keeping. Bloodffeld is under mar tial law tonight, and provost guard pa- trols the city. A skirmish line was thrown out at Camp Grant tonight to keep the company of which Andrews was mem Der from breaking out to avenge the mur- der of their comrade.

CONGRATULATIONS
Extended by Mexican Government on
 AccountS of Peace.

Mexico City. Aug. 18.-United States Min ister Clayton has notified the foreign rela- tions department of the conclusion of peace preliminaries with Spain and Minister Mar iscal formally replied congratulating the United States government that peace is now assured. It is predicted that the Gu bans will have many scores to pay off against Spanish volunteers in Havana, composed of low class of Spaniards en- gagged in trade there, as these men have been more brutal in their treatment of the Cubans than the Spanish soldiers. It will require strong hand on the part of the American military commander in Havana to prevent an outbreak of long repressed rage of Cuban patriots against these vol unteers.

SUPPLIES ANDNURsEs.
Much Needed at Santiago Sickness h.
 creasing Among Spaniards.

F Santiago de Cuba, Aug. 1S.- D. m.-The Massachusetts Aid Association hospital ship Bay State is expected to arrive to- night from Guantanamo bay. Hospital supplies and nurses are much needed. Large quantities of supplies have already been distributed by Dr. Bracket, of the aid association, who arrived two weeks ago. All the hospital ships leaving here are under orders to return, as the number of sick Is too large for the present service. The fever is increasing among the remain E ing troops.

 Four thousand Spanish troops have all ready been shipped, and the transports Villa Donga and Estrada Panay will leave tomorrow with 5000 more.

with men. He seems to lack the personal gifts which attract them This, however, cannot be said of his majesty and the op- poste sex, for 1t is he who made famous a few years ago the Parisian beauty, Cleo de Merode, who created such a sensation here, and who, it was said, "had no ears." - However, he-king is a perfect gentle man and a most charming and fluent taIK- CT. He married the Archduchess Marie Henriette in 1853 and four children have sprung from the union-the Duke of Bra bant, who died at an early age; the Prince of oburg, the Princess Stephanie, widow of the hapless Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria, and the Princess Clementina, who is still single.
 Other fads of the king are his unosten- tatious modes of living and his utter dis like for anything stronger than water. Very unlike the queen, he hates music and never attends the opera.

We are to have the pleasure of seeing a real live king. Leopold II. of Belgium, who is better known among Americans for his escapades while visiting a certain European capital "incognito'' than for any prominent statesmanship, has pur- chased, the cables say, the yacht of a we1l-known American family, and in it he will cross the waters to pay visit to America.
 The king is first cousin to Queen Vic toria. His mother was Princess Louise, of Orleans, daughter of Louis Phillipe. He is what we would call eccentric. It Is said that he never wears gloves, though this little peculiarity might arise from the fact that his hands are very beautiful and arstocratic in their lines, which na- ture he inherits from the Orleans family. He has a rigid countenance, which is rather repelling, and he is not a favorite

Northern HuntSmen.

One of our townsmen was out hunt
ing few days ago with some Northern
gentlemen, and he says they made
some very poor shots. AT about the
shank Of the evening he told them he
could understand now why the yankees
killed so few Of the Southern soldiers.
-RoXboro Courier
We are reminded fsome past hunts.
Several years ago party of Northern
hunters appeared at kittrell. They
had 5000 guns and $50 settlers. Our
old school mate. Charles Il. Lewis
hunted with a $50 gun, and native
pointer. and killed more birds than the
entire Northern party put together.
They next went in their fine palace
coach to Ridgewa in Warren. A hun
ter living near there. a brave Confed-
crate soldier. with perhaps half
dozen wounds upon his body, Captain
Benjamin Collins. hunted with the
Northerners and when it was ended.
he counted more birds than all the
others.-W ilmiuston Messenger

shipper swcetly at the moral leper, and
fond mamas are very generous and
kind. feeling it their wOmanly duty to
encourage the dear fellow to do better
now that he has sOWn bis wild oats.

Thus sings the poet of the Orange

altogether prosy:
How oft mid the cares that assail us
in maturer life do we revert to the
golden mornings Of youth, when i'm
agina ton moves the heart to sweetest
dreams; flowers bloom in beauty, birds
sing in gladness, and the shimm eriug
sunlight fBshions fairy palace, where
in later life we regard the storm clouds
that envelop our dearest hopes in
gloom, and shroud i'll the garnture OF
death the dearest ties that bind us to
earth! Sad is the contrast, aud sad
der still may be the closing of our eX-
istence, if we have not. in those bliss
full days, bound up the sheaves in love
and trust and garnered them in the
