The whole city was shocked and astound ed by the news. The manner in which the terrible crime was done added to the horror that seized the public mind, and especially because time victim was Colonel Thomas Dic c ens, whose feud with Wade H. Bolton, and whose aecquittal for the miao w or svoaO mho,. to 01311 trial: in the memory of our readers. Colonel Dickens had passed Fri day night with his neighbor, John C. Bolton, who lives on Big Creek, about six mild northeast of Raleigh, in this county. Yesterday morning 110 mounted his horse nod started for home, a distance of four • miles, and while riding leisurely along,all alone, about 7 A. fit., and not suspecting any evil or harm, ha was suddenly tired on by an assassin 'concealed in the' undergrowth near the public road. Tho fiend discharged the contents of a double barreled shot-gun into the body of the old man,' instantly• kill ing him and mangling his body dreadfully. Tho work was deliber ately, done, both barrels were fired '=-one after another, with an liderival of a few seconda. ft.t the first fire the old man was shot off his horse, and after he fell to the ground , the second fire was heard. The gun was loaded: with buchshot, and, as the assassin was within ten pacts of Colo nel Dickens, the effect of the balls was terrible, mangling and tearing the body ' to pieces. The horse turn ol back amid was taught at Bolton's store by the young man in charge of it. TIM shooting had been hood plainly in the direction from which the horse GM° and the blotches of blood on the sa ddle and rump of the horse at once spoke of murder. But the terrible catalogue, of crimes link ed with Bolton and Dickens fnmflies instantly appeared to the minds' of the people at Bolton's store, and it was with\ difficulty that any one or More could , be found bravo enough to go to the scene of murder. Who did the deed? is the question naked by every one, and answered by no one. The deadly feud between 'Wade 11. Billion armed Thomas Dick onA is involuntarily\ aliuded to as furnishing an explanation. But how IS it possible that this, can be so, when .Wmtdo Bolton is! dead? who repo_mentSAVade Bolton?' \ In May, 1,857 Isaac ' L. 'Bolton killedn Kentuckian moiled This occurred at the slave triart of Bolton,pickens do Co., in Clinton, street, near Howard Row, Idemnphis. Tho o ff ense of McMillan was the sell ing to - Bolton a negro boy, brought from Kentucky, as a slave fur life, The boy was sold by Bolton to Thoiri as B. Crenshow. of this county, who learned that the boy was, by the terms of his Kentucky master, to be made' free if carried out of the State. The boy sued for his freedom and gained it. McMillan was violently assailed by Bolton for his conduct, add the quarrel ended in, Bolton's taking the life of McMillan. The trial of I. L. Bolton was one of the celebrated criminal cases of 'Tennessee., His imprisonment lasted one year, and his trial took place in Covington, Tipton Co. He was ac quitted by a jury, every one of whom was bribed. The expenses incurred by this trial wore enormous. Lawyers' fer.s,and witness fees: and juror bribes absord ed at least $lOO,OOO, all of which was paid by property said to belong to the firm of Bolton, Dickens k Co. The firm was composed of Isaac L. Bolton, Thomas Dickens, Wade H. Bolton, add Washington Bolton. The firm expired n dry or two after the killing of McMillan, and Thom- Its Dickens nud Washington Bolton yefuSed to agree to share any part of the lass or expense of defending Isaac and demanded that money of the firm used for that purpose should be refunded. Wade sided with his brother, refused to settle, and this began the deadly war. The bitterness of the feud was si lent during the war, as Dickens was In Missouri and Washington Bolton la Kentucky. In 1802 Washington Holton died at his residence near ishelly Depot, in this county and in ISni Isaac L. Bolton died at his home MI Big Creek. In 1:45 Dickens re-' turned from Missouri to Tennessee,. and inimedintelf took steps to have' the business of Boltort, Dickens &C. 0.1. settled. Wade H. Bolton had charge of the booksond, as Dickens elm tended, of the property of the firm. But the expenses of the•MacMillan trial was the great trouble, and no settlement could be made, and the war began between Thomas Dickens and Wade H. Bolton. In January, 1869, attempts were made to assassinate Dickens at his residence, or his farm, three Mile.) northeast of Raleigh., The assassins failed. But in the spring of this same year two murderers, Inman and Morgan, entered the kitchen of I)iekens, while he and his friends were at supper, and began the work or slaughter. They wounded Dick ens, shooting him above the right' eye and in the arw ; wounded a young man named Humphreys, in the arm, and killed a man named Wilson, and a negro named Nancy, k who had been a trusted family ser tivant of Dickens' for fifteen years. Dickens naturally turned to his arch enemy, Wade IL Bolton, as the au thor of the bloody work. Whether true or false, lie acted in its belief. , lnman and Morgan were &Maws of Noth Alabama, Whither they returned after the assassination. They were . pursued, and a gold watch taken from Dickens' house on the nightof the attempt on his life, was found on the person - df Inman. Inman and Morgan wore hunted iirrwn Immediately by the citizens of North Alabama, and destroyed like wild beasts. They were concealed is a cave in ono of the most inacesible caves of North Alabama, and In this cave they were shot down. E. C. Patterson and . Bob Thomp soitwere supposed to be connected in criminality with these outlaws and murderers. They were indicted in this county, tried, and acquitted. Wade 11, 13olton was, by Dickens, believed to be the man at the bottom of all the attempts on ids life, but he could not fasten any guilt on him by facts. In the meantime, it big clittit• eery suit was going on between them,- involving a settlement of the firm of Bolton, Dickens & Co., involving more than a quarter of a million of dollars. • The feeling of hatred grow so strong that it was certain that either Wade H. Bolton would kill DiCkens or Dickens destroy Bolton. Tho crisis time in June, 1869, when Col. Dick. ens encountered Bolton In Court Square, and shot him.

The party stopped horn Expedition, and early in the Morning set out on their way to the valley. They had not gone far when a, largo party of Indians dashed down from the hills and surrounded them.

Wit and Justice, in Idknown. It is well known that some of the Judges in Missouri are very reluctant to enforce the law agpinst ministers of the gospel for exercising their pro felon without having taken the test oath, and. avail themselves of every pretence to discharge those-who are accused. We tell the following tale as, it was told to us, vouching for no thing. Three ministers, charged with the, crime of preaching "the glorious gos pel of the Son of God," were arraign ed before a certain Judge. They were regularly indicted, and It was under stood that tho proof against them was very clear. ; "Are you a preacher?" said the Judge to one of them. "Yes, sir," replied the culprit. "To what denoMination do you .belong ?" am a 'Christian. sir." (With dignity.) " "A Christian l What do you mean by that? . Are not all preachers Christians?" "I belong to the sect usually called, but wrongly called, GMtiplxdlites." (Not so muck dignity.) "Ali ! • ThetrYou believe in impti zing people in order that they may be horn again, do you?" "I do, sir." (Defiantly.) "Mr. Sheriff, discharge that man Ile is nn innocent man ! He is in dicted for preaching the gospel, and there is not a word of gospel in the Anne preaell It is only some of Alexander. Campbell's nonsense. So discharge the Man." Exit Campbellite;graatly rejoicing. "Are you a preacher?" said the Judge addressing the second criminal. "I am, sir," said the miscreant. . "Of what denomihation are you ?" "I am n 3fethodist, sir," (His looks showed it.) "Do you, believe in falling from grace ?" "I do, sir." - (Without heAitation.) "Do you believe in sprinkling per ple instead of baptizing them ?" "I belieVe that people can be bapti. zetl by sprinkling. (Much offended.) "Do you believe in baptizing lxt bit?" "It is my opinion, sir that infants ought to be baptized." (Indignantly.) "Not a word of Scripture for any: thing of the kind, sir!' shouted his Honor. "Mr.Sherld, turn that man loose! He is no preacher of the gas: pel! The gavel is truth, and there is not a word of truth in what that man Ulu:lies! Turn him loose! It is ridiculous to indict men on such frivolous pretences!

"And you imptize, none but those who believe in Jesus Christ ?" "That is my thith . and practice." With emphasis.) "My friend, I fear it will go hard with you. I see you are indicted for preaching the gospel; and it appears to me that by your !own confession you are guilty. " Baptist looked pretty blue. • "May it plt„nse your Honor," said the Baptist's counsel, springing to his feet, "that man never preached the gospel. I haile heard hint say a hundred times that he only tried. I have heard him try myself." • "Mr. Sheriff, discharge this man ! He is not indicted for trying ! There is nothing said about the mete effort! Let him go, sir! I ant astonished that the State's attorney should an noy the court with frivolous indict ments!" Exit Baptist, deterinincd to "try" again. Court adjourned. "God save the State and this hen-. orahle court !" explaiMed the Sheriff. "Amen !" said the three prweiters. Linn.—Some three or four years prior to the war, we found ourselves on the "Olive Branch," a first-class steamer at that time running between New Orleans and St. Louis. We were wandering listlesly about the boat, when the gong sounding for dinner we followed the crowd into the Saloon and took the scut assigned us at the table. Directly opposite us sat a genuine specimen ofthe "deown East" Yankee, and immediately to his right, was a repreSentation of the "codfish aristocracy."

The story of Winked' Magee is so much like a romance of the days of knightly exploit and achievement that itwould hardly be believed were it not attested by the - published his tories pf the war, and the official doe month narrating the actlod of the various brandies of the Government in his honor. .The son of a widow living In Bea ver street, in this city, William Ma gee, when a mere lad• of fifteen, en listed as a drummer • in the thirty third New Jersey Regiment. It was not long before hisdaring exploits in the presence ofthe enemy attracted the attention of his superior officers. While Hood, in the fall of MI, with an army of Atli* men, held General Thomas imprisoned in Nashville, General Milroy, with a haudfull of men, kept his commUuleation open on' the railroad at Murfreesboro, thir ty miles away. The post was soon surrounded, the men lost all hope of a_sorpe. But, it was determined to strike one blow for deliverence, and “folorn hope" of a single regiment was organized. William Magee was then only an orderly to Gen. Vain Cleve, but .the command of the forlon hope was com mitted to him. Ito sallied forth and dashed upon a rebel battery on the nearest eminence. The boyish cent intruder's charge was a gallant one, 'but the lire of the enemy was resist less, and his column fell back. But his heroic spirit was not to be crushed by a temporary mishap, nor was his suuerior's confidence in him shaken. Selecting a new regheent, he again rushed upon the foe, again met the withering tire. Still pressing on, however, victory was at last his. It was no ordinary • victory, but the turin", point of the crisis and the signal of that series of quickly suc ceeding battles which finally drove Hood from Tennessee. Amid the commendationsofall the leading officers of ithe Department, the Newark boy of eighteen was dec orated with a medal of honor from Congress, transmitted through the War Department. Upon the close of the war t he young liero:was appointed second lieutenant in the Twentieth United States Infantry, but on exam ination it was found that he was de ficient in several studies, havlng.nev er enjoyed educational ddvantages. Through the aid of.Uovernor Ward he secured an extension of time,and, applying"' imself to his books with the same intelligence and indomita ble pluck that had marked his con duct in the field, he was soon ready to impair again before the Examin ing 'feint, and this time passed tri umphantly. At the age of nineteen the Newark drummer boy donned the uniform `of an officer in the regu lar service. But now came a disastrous turn in the tide of his extraordinary career. While with his regiment, which was lying at Baton Rouge, Louisiana,. he was charged by the Assistant Surgeon of the regiment with stealing his watch. Magee sorely felt tho grievous. insult. It was the first blur which had ever been cast upon his honor. In a moment of anger lie visited the quar ters of the Surgeon and demanded re tract ion. This being refused,Lieuten ant Magee struck his defamer with a cowhide which he had brought for the purpose. The Surgeon started for his pistol, which was lying near, when 111fipe drew his open weapon and tired. The shot was fatal. Magee was tried for manslaughter by a civil court,and acquitted. When the friends of the surgeon procured Magee's arraignment before a general court martial nt Washington, and by this tribunal being found guilty of conduct prejudicial to the discipline of the army he was sentenced to he dismissed from the service, and im prisoned five years in the State pris on at Sti I water, Mituota. One year and three months of this term have elapsed, during which Magee has con ducted himself in such a . manner as to gain the warm interest in his be half of tine Governor of the State and all the prison authorities. Meanwhile his early and steadfast friend, Gov ernor Ward, has been actively work ing at Washington, and the result is seen in the pardon which has Just been transmitted to Stilwater. How ever just the sentence and condign the punishment, all will rejoice that the young man Is now free to begin over again a career in which he has displayed such remarkable talents.— Newark Advertiser. A Great 'limy Men Millie Killed The present war between France and Prussia is one that is unusually, perhaps beyond example, dreadful. Neither of the great powers engaged underrates the adversary. The poor boys who are going from Paris say sadly enough, "A great many men will. be killed." There is no doubt of it, boys; none whatever. The Prus sians may be beaten, but it will cost Prance her best blocd—the blood es pecially, I mean, of her poor young men. I met, this evening, a lady Just from a German city, who describes the state of feeling among the young Germans. They took their inevitable plats in the army, sadly enough, say ing, as they say here, "A great many nwn will be killed." Alas! that they who have no quar rel must go out to butcher each other. Last week the brilliant cafes on the Boulevards were served by active young men, not the least warlike in appearance, an . d possibly not caring whether a Prussian Prince sat on the throne of Spain. To-day they are in great numbers "called out," belong ing to the reserve, and there are new flices above the white aprons; and the poor country women must gather the scanty harvest alone Or helped only by the old men. This Ls a parallel else in the watering places and all the cities and fields in Germany. The waiters at the hotels and the peasants in Hie harvest fields are being gath ered 'ln prodigious macs for the slaughter. However, the newspapers through out Europe are dwelling with all their accustomed vigor and felicity upon the 'intense enthusiasm with which the. French and the Prussians aro fly4g at each others' throats. This is, of course, a certain sort of ex eitement extremely prevalent, and perhaps it is enthusiasm. It will pass away presently. Paris is full now of the idea of keeping open during the war the situations of civil life, of those who go into the ranks, and contribu— ting the salami of employees. These are supposed to be among the eviden cm of a popular war. • We know in America what all this is worth. One Week From My Maroc TM JOSH rinamios MONDAY—had suckers for break fast.

At the present time, how many persons wil lingly take mercury when siciefhow many permit the reeking current of their - blood to be shed by the lan mt muchuse of the one has been very m reduced, declined I the other is rusting in its scabbard, going gone! intoferri oxidunt rubrunt. In times pat the medical profes sion seemed to have almost entirely neglected the examination .of the urine in disease. At present, the mi croscope, test tube, pipette and uri 'tweeter are found in the :atm of nearly every respectable and well qualithsi physician. In times past, it was asserted, that many things tend to so change the quality of the urine as to make it an uncertain criterion in disease. At present, it is agreed that there Is not umure certain sign offered in dis ease ; and that" we cart arrive at a more accurate knowledge respect lug the nature of disease by ,examin ing the urine than by any • other symptom." In times past, there vas such •an aversion to the study and practice of this system of diagnosis, that scarcely a medical college in the United States would give to urincsphathology .the attention Its importance deserved.— Now, many of them are payingspm ialitttention to this branch, some of them having established special departments' for its study, in tine of which, we have been honored with the Professorship. In times:past, there was a prejudice against the system, and a squeamish- ness on the partof many people. that prevented then' front seeking relief in any hit the "Old-fashioned way." At present, the really sick seek the quickest and isst relief that science affords without regard to this or that fashion, or this or that system. So ' fully is this last fact verified in our pnictice, that our physical ability has lately been taxed beyond endur ance alined. to satisfy the demands of the sick (Wall classes, who send to us from all parts of the country, and obtaine the remedies to perform a cure when a cure is at all to be had. Not only the rich and the poor ap; ply to us for medicines, but the Learned and the scientific seek our professional advice, and bow with respect to our nutshell opinions and anxiously solicit our medical aid. L. Of.wirtrE, 1)., 1:1:2 Uru,h street PiNvgurgh THE BROKEN SAW. A boy went to live with a man who was accounted a hard master. Ile never kept his boys; they mn away or gave notice they meant to quit ; so ho Was half hlstinio without or in search of a boy. The work was not very hard—opening and sweep ing out the shop,. mopping wood, going errands and helping round. At last Sam Fisher went to live with , him. "Siim's a giio& boy," said his mother. '"1 should like to see a boy now-a-days that had a spark of good ness in him," growled the new mas ter. It is always bad to begin with a man who has no eontidemv in you; because, do your Immt, you are likely to have little credit for it. Howev er, Sani thought he would try • the wages were good, and his mother wanted him to go. Sam had been there but three days before, in saw ing a cross-grained stick of wood, he broke the saw. He was a little frightened. lie knew ho was care ful, and he knew he was a pretty good sawyer, too, for a boy of his age; nevertheless, the saw broke in lusllands. "And Mr. Jones will thrash, you for it;' said another boy who was in the wood-house with him. "Why, of course I didn't mean it, and acci dents will happen to the best folks," said Sam, looking with a very Sor rpwful air on the broken saw: "Mr. Jones never wakes allowances," said the ether boy; I never saw anything like, him. That Bill might have stayed, only he jumped into a hen's nest, and broke her eggs. Be &troll tell of It; but Mr. Jones kept on sus pecting and suspecting, and suspect ing, and laid everything out of the way to Bill, whether Bill was to Winne or not, till Bill couldn't stand it, and wouldn't." "Did he tell Mr. Jones about the eggs?" said Sam. "No," said the boy, he was afraid; Mr. Jones has got such a temper." "I think he'd better owned , up just at once," said Sam. 6 'l suspect you'll find it hetter to practise than to preach," said the Troy. "I'd run away before I'd tell him; " and ho soon turned on hls heel, and left poor Sam alone with his broken saw. , f The poor boy did not feel very comfortable or happy. He shut up the wood-house, walked out into the garden, and then went up tolls lit tle chamber under the imvc.u. He wished he could tell Mrs. Jones,' but she wasn't sociable, and he'd rather not. 'Oh, my (iod," said Sam, fal littg'on his knees, "help mu to do the thing that Li right." I do nut know what time it Was, but when Mr. Jones came into thei house the boy heard him. He gov up, crept down stairs, and' met Mr: Jones in the kitch en. , "Sir," said Sam, "I broke your saw, and I thought I'd come and tell yciu 'fore you saw it in the morning.' "What did you get up to tell me for," asked Mr. - Jones; I should think morning soon enough to tell of your carelessnem." '•Because," raid atm," I was afraid if I put it off, I might be tempted to tell a lie about it: I'm sorry I broke It, Nit I trial to be careful." , - 14.4(436 iiicaEavat the boy fkoni beads° foot; then, stretebtagout band, ol'here, &OW be said Marti. ly, me • hand.

If. the boys hadtreated him honestly and s'abovehoard,' , he would have been a good man to live with. It was their - conduct which soured and made him suspicious. I don't know how this is; I only know that Sam Fisher finds in Mr. Joaesa kind mu ter and a Adthfat friend. Mtscelkswmnfs. Ottildren's Carriages O'Leary & Singleton's, 11.4:S Federal St., .
