BY J. A. SELBY. Bloody Affray.?A terrible and fatal difficulty occurred at Harrodsbnrg, Ky., on the 28th nit. A suit was pending between P. B. Thompson, Sr., and Theodore Daviees, Sr., in regard to a note, which Daviess alleges he has paid, bat which Thompson charges had been stolen from bis law office. Bad blood bad been up for some time, when suddenly, three Daviess?Theodore, Sr., and his two sons, Theodore. Jr., and Lame?and three Thompsons?Philip B., Sr., and his two sons, Philip B. Jr., and John B.?all had their revolvers ont and commenced firing. At about the second shot Theodore DavieBE, Sr., was killed, falling directly in front of the judge. About the same time one of the Thompsons was shot in the thigh and fell. Theodore Daviee?, Jr., and his brother, Larue, backed toward the door, etil 1 firing, and jnst as they reached tho court bouse door, Theodore was shot dead. Immediately alter, another Thompson was shot through the arm and also in the shoulder, but he and his brother still pursued Larue Daviess, and mortally wounded him. John B. Thompson was not hurt, though his clothing was riddled with bullets. Eight pistols were pioked up in and near the court house, all discharged, from -which it is evident that both par tie? were armed to the teeth, and de? termined to make a finality of the thing. All three of the Thompsons are lawyer?, the father being a brother to Jack Thompson, tbe-famoaB Kentucky Oon-| grossman. The Daviesses are farmers, formerly in good ciroumstaaces, bnt I having gone considerably to the bad after loosiDg their property, some time ] ago. Encouragement fob Hard-run Ci? ties.?Sitka, in Alaska, has a public debt of SI 00, and has only seventy-five cents in the treasury. The New York Commercial suggests that "there is no? thing like Behring straits of thiH kind' with cheerfulness." Of course there is not. Why should even New York be| discouraged at ber inability to borrow 82,01)0,000, when she looks gently upon Sitka? Who Die of Yexlow Fever.?Of all tbe persons who died in Sbreveport) during the recent epidemic, we have tbe age of 585 of them respectively. Of | these 100 died under 10 years of age, 94 were between 10 and 20,156 were be? tween 20 and 30, 131 were between 30 and 40, 59 were between 40 and 50, 29 were between 50 and 60, 13 were above 60. The Vienna Exhibition was closed without any oeremony, but in the pre? sence of 160,000 people, who came to have a last look. The fog-horn sound? ed; the military bands played the Aus? trian Hymn; the crowd cheered?uud all was over. A philosopher remarks that there is something peculiarly instructive in standing upon a street corner in a large j city and watching the men nil raahing I aronnd| trying to make money, nnd tbe I women all floating around trying to' spend it.
