Capt. Natt Atkinson, Asheville, N. C:
Dear Sir: Maj. A. D. Reynolds has
been to me and informed me about the
progress yon are making with your road
reaching Irotn Asheville in this dircwisn,
nd 1 am very glad to note your success
thus far and desire to say that the Bris
tol, Bliiabcthton and North Carolina
road, rtnchinr, from Bristol towards
Asheville, is eettine in a substantial con
dition, and we would like to confer with
you at as early day as possible in regard
to a connection with your road at the
slate line.
"We have iust concluded a deal for our
rolling stock, and hiue hImiiH concluded
the ileal for forty-five miles of our rails.
we expect to have our road completed
from this point to Uliznbetbton, a dis
tance of twenty-four miles, within the
next ninety days. The distance from
Uliznhethton, through Unicoi, to the
North Carolina line is twenty-six miles,
but it is much less costly, as you doubt
less know, than that part iust finished.
we nave also iiisrenscd the capital ol
our construction company very matcn-
II v and are in a condition to niish for
ward the work in u much more satisfac
tory way than heretofore.

ROCK AND KNIFE,
Desperate Fight Brlwees Two
Alabama Fariue.s.
Birmingham, Ala., July 14. A bloody
nd mortal conflict took plnce in Blount
county, two miles from Chapultepec, .be
tween two farmers named Wm. Hollings-
worth and John McCoy, late yesterday
afternoon.
It seems that McCoy had .reasons to
suspect that Hollingsworth, who was a
widower 40 years old, had made inde
cent proposals to McCoy's sister. The
men met while alone in the county road
just Viefore dark Inst evening. Theaffray
began by McCoy striking Hollingsworth
on the heud with a rock, fracturing his
skull. Hollingsworth then drew a
deadly knife with a long, i-.een
blade, and stabbed McCov three times in
the left side and back, producing fatal in-
uries. McCov fell, but soon arose and
seizing another rock, broke Hollings
worth s arm and dealt him a fearful
blow on the head. Both then fell bleed
ing nnd exhausted from their wounds.
They lay in the road helpless, but swear
ing vengeance on each otheruntil mutual
friends found them and removed thcin to
their homes.
Dr. AHgood says there is hardly any
lui nee for the recovery ol either.

statements, assailing the political and

He was in Mississippi at the time, and
telegraphed asking a suspension of judg
ment until he could have time to otter
evidence in refutation of the charges. To
day he publishes in the Banner his reply
to the American. It occupies fourteen
columns and is a vigorous defense of his
record.
McDowell attacks the American bit
terly, charging that it is party to a con
spiracy to ruin him without other cause
than venomous hatred, lie offers sworn
testimony to impeach a number of the
American's witnesses against him, claims
that they are his personal enemies be
cause he openly condemned their evil
practices, and positively and Biecificully
denies their damaging statements.

JUDGE LYNCH RAMPANT.
A NEGRO RIDDLED WITH BUL
LETS IN MISSISSIPPI.
No Adequate Cause For The Ac
tion was Considered a Bad Man
But the Provoking Cause Alto
gether Trivial.
Nashville, Tenn., July 14. A lynching
without any apparent adequate cause,
occurred last night at Love, a small sta
tion on the Illinois Central railroad, in
Mississipi.
The victim was a negro named Sam
uel Gillespie.
Gillespie was arrested yesterday after
noon for rescuing another negro charged
with larceny, from an officer. Instead of
taking Gillespie to Hernando, the county
scat, and lodging him io jail, Deputy
Sheriff Elder, who had charge of him,
concluded to keep him confined in a room
at Love until this morning. About mid
night a mob of masked men forced an en
trance to the room and took charge of
the negro, marched him to a tree, a shsrt
distance away, tied him and shot him to
death.
The corpse was found and there were
twenty-one bullet holes in different parts
of his body. The coroner held as in
quest, the result of which was a verdict
that deceased was shot and killed by
persons unknown.
Gillespie wns regarded as a bad negro.
He had a fight with a white man about
six mouths ago, and won the battle.
