Galveston, Texas, Jane 9.—Word has been received from Terrell, Texas, of a serious (hooting affray which occurred 'here on Monday night. Orange Terrell and Miles Henderson have been courting Miss Sophia Wickson, and the jealousy between the two had led to several quarrels. Monday night, about 9 o'clock, Terrell went to the lady's house, and found Henderson ahead of him. He immediately opened fire, shooting Henderson in the centre of the breast, the ball glancing upwards over his shoulder. Terrell's aim was then directed to the woman. After emptying nis pistol, one of the shots taking effect in her leg, he fled. Reloading his pistol, he returned to the house, took art'his shoes, and laid down on a bed in tho front roam, announcing that he had conic back to die in that house. In the meantime Jim Keller, the City Marshal, was notified that Terrell was in the house, and in company with several others, went and surrounded it. Keller, entering tho house by the way of the back door, passed through the kitchen and came to the door of the front room. Seeing Terrell lying on the bed he commanded him to throw np his hands and surrender. Terrell's hands went up, but in one of them was his pistol, which he fired at Keller as he raised, barely missing him. The Marshal then tired five or si\ times, completely riddling Terrell with I bullets. Terrell was killed instantly, and did not speak.

On the man's cheeks when found stood big tear drops. He was evidently either from Boston or Philadelphia.Reading, Jane 10.—"Lover's Leap," a high, projecting spur from the mountain, along the Reading Railroad, a mile below this city, a frequented spot by young couples on moonlight walks, yesterday was the scene of a tragic snicide, the body being found this evening. It was that of a good looking young man about 25 years of age, cleau shaven except mustache, dark hair and eyes, and wearing a new outfit of shoes and clothing, etc. It lay in the pathway leading to "Lover's Leap." In the man's hand was firmly clutched a revolver, with which he had sent a bullet throngh his heart. On his breast lay a letter addressed to Miss Katie Boyer, Pawling, Chester county. Tho writer signed himself as George A.

THE ST. ELMO Stafford, Vt., Juno 0.—William Sloan returned from his work Tuesday evening, and, missing his little 1-year-old son, asked for him. To his earnest questions Mrs. Sloan returned evasive replies, saying he had gone out and would soou be back. When night had come .Mr. Sloan became anxious and roused the ueighborhi. .1. All last night and this l'ore:;oon was p. . .., il in a fruitless quest. About I o'clock yesterday afternoon the body ol' the child was found thrust into a muddy drain back of the house. Death icsulted l'nmi di'ow;.i, though several marks and bra!.-1 i 0.1 11>.■ face and body, as well as tin: positi i 01 the child when found, showed that murder hadbeeneommitted. Mrs. Sloan could not be induced to join in the >.earcb, and when the neighbors brought her child to the house and laid it at her feet she evinced no surprise, mere!} saying that it had served her husband light to indict such a punishment 011 him. Later ou she confessed that she had drowned the boy to spite her husband. The child was remarkably bright for his age and the pet of the neighborhood. Mr. Sloan is wild with griet, while Mrs Sloan is very nonchalant, and from the fact that she thinks she has performod a brave deed, is believed to bo insane.

Mr. 1!. J. Mc- Feely certainly deserves great credit for his business skill, as you will remember yon noted the burning of his mill bnt a short t.iine ago. Mr. McFtely never seemed to think of sitting down and "crying over spilt milk," but just in one month from tho date of the lire he had his mill running at the new site at V. S. Murray's and turning out the best shingles in the market, and a few days ago purchased one of the best board rigs in the county and in a short time will be prepared to furnish his patrons with all kindsof lumber. Mr. John Bryne, of Richmond, Indiana county, is sawing the shingles for Mr. McFeely and this is a sufficient guarantee that, t hey are of good quality. As this is our lirst we will not impose, but will end by saying that the voice of the widely known VhI. Murray is every day heard in the garden, field and woods in laughter, song and story. Michael.
