Tne Dance of Oealli,
[Lexington, (Iiy.) Dispatch.J
At the quiet and somewhat unpretentious
little village of Sliarpsburgli, bordering on
our neighboring county, Montgomery, where
reside many prominent and wealthy citizens,
although it is more of a "cross-roads"
town Mian a country-scat, there have been
during the past year or two a number of
peripatetic "larks," whose indiscretions
have exceeded their judgement. These
manifestations have been doutlees more the
result of a tendency to be fast than posibly
any out-croppings of any real criminal in
tent. We have just beeu placed in posses
sion of the facts of a singularly unfortunate
and fatal event, ending In the death of one
man and the punishment of another in most
unwa rentable uud peculiar circumstances'
Thomas Fletcher was the name of the man
killed, and it appears that lio had been a
transient resident between Irvine, Kstillj;
county, Mt. Stirling anil Sharpsburgh, he
having lived at the latter place lor some
time, but more recently alternating between
the other two towns- Irvine was the last,
place of his "namo and habitation."
Was musically Inclined, and ills last perfor
mance that-line proved a death! A few
days since Fletcher, In his festive mood, at.
Irvine, drew a pistol, and, with drawn bead
ami pointed muzzel, demanded of another
young man that lie "dance or die." Then
at a disadvantage the young man danced
with the murderous muzzel held to his head
the basilisk eye of his tormentcr running
along the barrel, keeping it following every
movement. On lie danced till his limbs
grew lax uud the perspiration stood in heads
upon his brow. "That will do," grimly
said Fletcher, lowering and uncocking his
pistol and putting it in his pocket; adding,

avid compressed lip the young mail, whose
name we did not leurn, said, "Yes, and you
may stop; too." Drawing a pistol quick ns
a liasli, lie pulled the trigger anil fired.
"Take that," said he, as a hissing ball went
through the heart of Fletcher, who fell
over and expired. This was a little more
dance and musie than Fletcher had bar
gianed for, and the tables were completely
turned. The young man gave himself up,
as we learned, and the matter will undergo
t-n o regular judicial investigation and legal
proceed lugs.
Frank Leslie says that the college regattas
are applauded by "ten thousand flashing
