of the late Win. H. I'a-wirt, ?>!' (. alhoun's I j
Milts, left their liom? toseea neighbor lor ihe '
purpose of procuring from him si tine seed!
wheat, ami while on the way it o -eurred toj <
tiieiii as they approached the lane lending to I i
the house of Joe Collier, colored, that they J
ml^ht colicet an old debt front him with |<
which to pay for the wheat. As they came to i j
the head of tin' lane from .Toe s house which |
opened on the road thes- young men were tr.iv-1
elinii, Jamesltfiaginorefiiiiiili.tr with the '
- . ,i..t,t nrottosed to his brother to j "
liuitiru i?i hh r. .
remain i? the road at the head of the lane tin-;
til he would ride down to the house and see M
Joe. Kugcno remained in the road while t
James rode down t lie lane to the gate in front I
of the colored man's house, and called him! ^
out. They soon got into a hot discussion and "
high words were passed. The nogro man j .
cu led to his wite to bring him his gun. |
James told the negro that he was unarmed, |
and ho turned to leave. Joe followed him ;"
about a hundred yards down the lane, when j 1
he pulled Taggart off his horse. and a scuffle
ensued. Eugene Taggart either hearing orh
seeing what was going on ran to the rescue of I <]
his brother and at his approach to the con-1
tending parties Joe tiirew a 'tone at him, ?
whereupon hedrew his pistol and tired with-1,
out effect. Joe and Kugene immediately I
closed In a violent struggle for the possession (
of the pistol, during which the pistol was!"
dischargedoace without doing injury. Final- 1
ly, Eugene gaining possession, lired at Joe,
the ball taking effect a little back of the ear. v
The negro fell and the boys left. The negro c
regaining his feet walked back to his house.
An hour or so afterwards he was jbund with I
his haul on the hearth, dead.
Axotmkk account, based on the testimony [,
of Toe Collier's wife, is that the young men j'
came to the door, called Joe out, had high
words about the debt, said they would have it j v
out of him or whip it out of Film:?that Joe"
wentout in the lane, to tight itout with them L
and was shot dead.
At the Coroner's inquest next day, it was!
ascertained that the skull had not been even S
fractured by the bullet from the pistol?the I
bullet heinc flattened by coming In contact
with the skull. We understand that a most '
searching medical examination failed to discover
any fracture in the skull or any marks )<
of concussion in the hrain.
At the Inquest held before S. W. Cochran, f,
coroner, the following was the verdict render
ed:
"That Joe Collins came to his death from a I ^
pistol-shot wound, (pistol being fired in the
hands of Kugene Taggarti and improper I c
treatment afterwards that brought on apo-1
plexy causing death." It is said that when!,
the last shot was tired the deceased negro had ;
the barrel of the pistol ik his hand. The!
Taggarts have disappeared, but will doubtless I '
be in Court when the case comes up for trial, j

Sunday A">th inst., was tlio third anniversary
of the Methodist Sunday School Missionary w
Society. Prof. Duncan of W'oflbri College
had been invited topreach the usual anniverk:iry
sennon. He is a young divine of excellent
scholarship and of uncommon power as a
pulpit orator. His sermon 011 Sunday forenoon
was au eloi|Uent appeal in behalf of be- j
nellcenceasditrerent from benevolence. He)
tore the veil from the face of that easy and I
common kind of '.'oodness which never goes
beyond well-wishing ami earnestly urged his p
hearers to cultivate that rarer and higher {',
tooduess which is distinguished by welldoimr.
It was a powerful and impressive discourse.
. .
In the afternoon he delivered an address to
the children of the Sunday School, and there-1
in proved himself as able to interest the >>
youthful luiud as to instruct their eiders. .
The Society has raised about lifty-tlve dol- 1 J,
lars this year, entirely by the offerings of the j f,
children of the Sunday School.
In the evening a large congregation ussem- j ,
bled again to iiear the distinguished I'rofcs- Jr
sor. The usual evening services in the Pres-1 J.
byterian (.'liureii were suspended mi Sunday j!*
in compliment to Prof, Duncan,ami Rev. Mr.'}'
Martin's congregation was numerously repre-1 |
resented. The learned gentleman took no I
text, but announced as the subject of hts dis-1
course '"Christian Kdueation.'' It is a trite j S
subject which almost every public speaker ' -.V
has handled, but Prof. Duncan treated it with I J,
a freshness ami visor that made it seem now If.,
ami unexplored territory. His ideas about v
the necessity for Christian Education inii;
hou?es, schools, and colleges, were just and!',
right, and he enforced them in plain, forcible, |
and telling language. There isa tine raeiness j
and piqnnncy in his style that enlivens his j *
subject and Interests his hearexs. ~

Terrible Railroad Accident.

that only one nerson lost his life?Mr. Mi

jet out of the ear, and was drowned; there;
if the passengers of whom there were nc
more than twenty, no ladies being on th

ivcr the trestle an hour before the aceldei

up train attempted to pass over the trestle,
