As the grants of privileges expired by their i'wu limitation, they have, from tune to time, been renewed by the crown.

Tnd?y evening preceding th

.j' ;"!. u,lllim'muu lnnS wncn Dr. lirown came in from his farm. Smith

was also present, and having drank some whiskey became abusive to the family. The Doctor remonstrated with him, which only seemed to add to his abuse, he left the room. He went away and attempted to borrow a rifle, as he said to bhoot the Doctor, but failed. Next morning, by some means, he obtained a. large Pistol, loaded it w ith slugs and concealed it under his great coat. About 7 o'clock he came to Christopher's while Doctor lirown was at ids breakfast ami told him he wanted

satisfaction. The Doctor repbed, deferring the matter until he was done breakfast and weut out of the haeakfast rcom, when a

scuffle ensued between him and Smith tl c

noise of which brought Christopher out

who fount! the doctor thrown back upon the

l ed by smith. He seized Smith by the armsnnd pulled him out of the door backwards and held

him some time Dr. Itrovvn went out and

tried to pacifySmith. Christopher then loosed

hi? hold on him, when he insantaniously drew the pistol cocked from his coat pocket.discharged it nt theDoctor Christopher standing near

him. Eieht slugs entered lirown's side, . ie

of which passed through, his IkjiIv; one struck Christopher knee and another passed through

his thigh. Christopher tell but th? Doctor pursuedSmith until he made his escape through a cornfield. He w unsensible of his situation.

observed his wounds were mortal, walked a-

bout the yard and attempted to ride home, but

soon taiute.t and was taken from his horse.

He was carried into a house, w here he endured

his sufferings w ith much fortitude until about two o'clock next morning and expired!

Smith remained a short time in the ncigrhW

hood (fearing he had killed his father-in-law.)

exulting at the wound he had indicted onUrowa and then crossed over to the Indiana shore. On Saturday morning he hallooed across the river, asking if the damned rascal was dead. (alluding to lirow n) if not he would come over and kill him. He was not taken at our latest account.
