A correspondent at Elizabethtown, Ten nessee, gives us the particulars of a terrible feud that has been raging for twenty years between two familiesdahat Cottrity,• and which Was brought toan end by the bloody deaths of the sole surviving males of .the warring tribes, in the streets of Elizabeth town, on the evening of the sth ofJanuary. The histery - of the affair, as detailed by our correspondent, is as follows: in the fall 0f1846 a family named John steins reitioved from Wantaufra county, N. C , to Carter county, East' Tenn , and set tied down in the neighborhood of another family named Rogers. Johnstone, who ap peared to be an energetic, industrious man, immediately went to work at clearino• up a little farm. He felled trees, .grubbed up under growth, burned stumps, and split rails to fence in the ground he reclaimed from the wilderness. In this labor he was assisted by two sons—both were lads. While the three were engaged in erecting, fencing about their patch of laud, Rogers rode up to where they were at work, one day, and laid claim to a pile of rails, about a dozen in number. This claim Johnstone disputed and finally. on R4gers applying to him the epithets of "lie " and "thief,' the N l iurth Carolinian pulled Win from his horse and administered to him' - a severe ChastiSement with his fists. Rogers went off vowing vengeance, and itli•thecOurse of an hour returned to the sp'4 armed with a rale, the Contents of %vide i he discharged into the body of Johnstone, roducing final consequences. Rogers, Win . was a man. of wealth for 'those primitive times, and. wag posseSsed of considerable • influence atrion , his rough unlettered neighbors, was acquit ted op the charge of murder by an eicamiti ' ing jestice. This was the beginning Ot the terrible Vendetta which has run, through 1 the yearsa that followed, cutting down the males of the two families in the pride of their strength and manhood 1 The twoJohnStone lads vowed verieaneel upon the murderer of their parent, and one of them, Thoinas, worked night and day; with but one object in view, to accumulate: the means to purchase a rifle. At length' he became the owrer of one, and one Sabi bath morning, with his gun upon his shoulder, he approached the house of Rog . eis: The latter was sitting upon his porch, and ; r he sax' youth , Johnstone approach it, probably divining his intention, arose tastily-, and started toWard the rack whetLe his gun was suspended. But the averigi. of blood was upon his path, and ere lie could reach his weapon, he fell upnn the floor n I corpse, his heart pierced by the bullet Ofl his foe: Rogers left behind him a you•tigi wife and three thildreu l one of whom- wits a boy. Among the rough backwoodsmen of Carter county, young Johnstone's criMe was looked upon with sad satisfaction, ii• not favor, the Indian law of retaliation lie infr lOoked upon by them as the very crcain of juStico. Afterward Johnstone ; married and as the Years passed by, he became stir rounded by an interesting and numerous; - progeny. . : The boy, Wm. Rogers, in the meantime, bad almost reached manhood's estate; when . .. one morning, without divulging his inten tion to mother or sisters-, he left the house with his father's rifle upon his shoulder, .as if he were going out to inint, and in less than an hour a grief strcken mother and children were weeping over the corpse of a slain husband and father. Young Rogers, . in Ilia turn, had become an avenger, and Thomas Johnstone had fell beneath his handl In. time the memories of these three run r ders died awdy and those who Were children then grew Up to he men and Women. Wm. Rogers had tak is to himself a wife, and be came the head of a growing family. - Ci_ne morning he rode into El:zabeiht‘own, rind as he did not return that night—a cireinn stance that never occurred before—his ndfe becatne very uneasy, and' in the. morning induced her Brother to start to town in search of her missing husband. About three Miles from the 'house he came upon the body of his brother-in-law lying in the road, stiff and cold in death.' His brain had been pierced by a rifle ball. Although his murderer Was never discovered, yet the community quiet ly accepted the belief that Henry John-, stone, a son of Thomas, who was slain by Rogers, was the perpetrator of the deed. Seme years afterwards, in a drunken: mo ment, in Elizabethtown, this young man acknowledged' lie had slain Rogers, and gave as reason that the latter , hae killed his father: Johnstone was a young man, and 'only a few months before the murder had been married to a young girl in the neigh.— borhood. Again the chart of time was unrolled and at least ten years was added to the past, when a young lad; son of the murder ed Rogers, engaged in an altercation in the court house at Elizabethtewn, with John stone, who was Then a middle aged man, and inflicted such wounds upon him with . a knife, that he died the following. Morn ing. Thus it went on for years, now a 'John stone falling by the hands of a Rogers, then a Rogers falling beneath the avenging hand of a Johnstone, until the war intervened, _5.10 P. M E ra and for a time, at least, the terrible feed appeared to have ended. The cessation of hostilities brought the survivors of the war ring families back to (.li , ter county; Tiles , survivors consisted of Randall Rogers and Robert. Johnstone, both battle,:scarred!et erans and both unmarried men. On the evening of the sth these two men met in a grocery at Elizabethtown, an I Soon bed came engaged in an t!tercatior: Bystand ers interfered, and for an hour or two a col lision was averted. . They were seperated uy friends and taken off in opposite direc tions. This occurred Lent noon. About 3 o'clock, as Rangers Was going up Street, he saw Johnstone coniiiig down. As they neared each other they - drew their revol vers and commenced simultarieOusly firing upon each other, continuing to advance as they. fired. Filially and when about four feet distant from Johnstone, 11 , :g rS sank to the pavement, and lay, t lie last act rif his life was to lire' the last cli in his pistol into the abdomen of dofinsthne, whose! last linnet, fired at tine same. instanti .pene trated his antag ist's 'braid, Caasiiiti. stout death.
