Au unkuowu man waa killed. -? - ' - S r Aili AND ono. -The Ci\ru)im\ Spartan, of the 18th, says: Titus Cooper, . a colored mau, who lived iu tho neighborhood of Glenn Springs, in this County, WHS ?hot nud killed a few days ago, by a colored man, | named George Williams. Tho cause o? thu homicide arose from a dispute about mattera connected with their work on the plantation where they were em? ployed. Titus was a negro of good cha? racter-honest and industrious. Geo. Williams, or (Geo. Gates,) has not been arrested. Ho is .supposed to have gone to Haywood County, N. C., where bia brother is living. Wo notice uuother sensational fabrica? tion iu the Union, purporting to be writ ten from Spnrtnnburg to "some one" in Columbia. It bears unmistakable im? press of tho.motives tha't induced the concoction of- the story it relates. It has no signature, and we believe it ie equally destitute of truth. It i? too in? famous and pitiful to notice. That per? sons whoso chief business is to fabricate such letters should go- unharmed in iSpartanburg, ia good evidence of the forbearance of ber citizens, or tho mis? guided policy of tho mysterious Klan. The communication of Messrs. Cannou aud Woodruff to the Columbia Union, wiri sh we re-print in another column, it deems, would have given a quietus to the sensational sentiments of "Senex." Plain, ingenuous . and truthful in ile statements, instead of itffordiug apology for the horrid act which resulted in the death of Wully Fowier, yet tho motive which prompted its publication teems not to bo flatteringly apprehended. We thiuk we know "Senex," aud con? clude Unit he had rather engender than allay public excitement. Instead of en? deavoring to promote.peace, his purpose is to beget strife. In our last issue wo denounced the deed referred to in as strong language as we could commaud; and now, while we would in no manner extenuate tho criminality and iuhu muni ty of the offence, it is proper to state that in a conversation a few days since, two of the sous of tbedeaeased said that the killing of their father was to gratify the revengeful feelings of somo persons who entertained malicious , feelings towards *|iim; that it was not on the score of his political views, nor do they thiuk it was j done by the Ku Klux. " _ ? ._ i THE NEOBO DEBT QUESTION.-No case involving the payment of debts contract? ed for the purchase of sluves has been or will be tried at the present term of the court. When the first case was called, Judge Orr expressed his regret that be could not concur iu tho reoeut decision of the Supreme Court of this State, and I that he would feel himself constrained j to instruct the jury that debts contracted for slaves' could not be collected, and that the prohibition in the State Consti? tution was not a violation of the Consti? tution of the United States. Ho sug? gested that it would perhaps be most prudent to continue all such cases until tho decision of the Supreme Court of the United States upon the question should bo announced. The members of the bur approved of the suggestion, und all that clues of cases was continued. Judge Orr has a very distinguished precedent for his determination in this casu. lu the case of the State vs. Wells, (2d Hill, 087,) Judge Earle decided that the Con? gress could not confer jurisdiction on the State courts to try violations of the criminal law of the United States. It went to the State Supreme Court; the court reversed bis decision. Two years later, the case of the State vs. McBride, involving tho same principle, came be? fore him on the circuit, and he refused to recognize the decision of the Supreme Court ia tho case of the State vs. W?lls. Aa appeal was taken, and the remodeled Appeal Court of the State Overruled the decision in the caso ot tho State rs. W?lls, and sustained the position taken by Judge Earle. Thia lust case will be found in Rioe's Law Ito port?, p*age 100. [Greenville Mountaineer. The Now York World learns by a pri? vate lettor from St. Petersburg that the intended visit of the Grand Duke Alexis to this country has been not only postponed, but entirely given up. The World says that tho Czar has been so mach annoyed by the propositions made to him through his minister at Wash? ington, from ambitious private citizens of the United States, eager to undertake the duty of "lionizing," lodging and banqueting bis eon, that he has peremp? torily put a veto on tho whole expedi? tion.

John McBeth, alias Jamison, a nativo of Now York, i was hung by a mob fon several murders, ) M'Tho porrera of the General Opverii ment . oro made up of concessions from' th? several. States-w haleter. is not ex proBBly given to the former tbe latter ex? pressly reserve. The judicial power of the United States is a cona ti tuent-part "of those' concessions-that power is to be exercised by courts organized j for the. Sarp?se, and brought into existence by O effort Of the legislative power of the Union. Of all the courts which ibo j United States may, under their general powers, constitute, ono only, the Su ; promo Court, possesses jurisdiction de? rived immediately from the Constitution, and of which the legislativo power can? not deprive it. All other courts created by the General Government possess no jurisdiction but what is given them by the power that creates them, and can be vested with none but what the power ceded to the General Government will authorize them to confer. Certain im? plied powers must necessarily result to our courts of justice from the nature of their institution. But jurisdiction, of orimes against thc State is not muong those powers." . I Federal Supr?me Cowl in 1812. Gen. Sheridan says Von Mollke is a mau of tremendous inherent will, lio moves large bodies of men with rare suc? cess, and handles them splendidly. He carries ont bis plans as a mau recites something thoroughly committed to memory. The Emperor, too, has a su? perb judgment. The beauty of the Prussian military mind is its great care? fulness.
