a plot among the slaves had been dis
Covered. which is said 10 have been
better planned and managed than any
before known. IL appears that a slave
OF planter, Mr.. Compton, informed
has master that he negroes were form.
ing plans 10 kill all the white males.
and To spare the females and children-
and that If he would 20 TO a certain
Westinghouse where his negroes as
sembled for the purpose of preaching.
be would discover all their plans. Mr.
Compton did so. IN company with four
others. but he learned very little more
of the matter. His inlormer then told
him that the rinyleader of the gang.
was one OF has own slaves, and tina, be
s~ore vengeance against his master.
for taking him out Of his house and
sending him to the field. The plan Of
tins fellow. II appears, was 10 raise an
insurrection. first at Alex andria. next
at Natchltoches, and then TO turn their
steps TO Orleans and kill all the whites:
the negroes. however. could not agree
which frustrated all their plans. One
party was for sparing the women and
Children, the other for IN indiscrimi-
cate massacre. Mr.. Compton. upon
learning these facts. arrested bis house
servant. the chief. and he confessed on
the gailows tina, It had been his inten.
tion to kill his master.
On the 10th aud 18th instant. nine
were hung. aud 30 Others were taken
and imprisoned: it is hoped that all
their plans will be fully Uncovered
A strong patrol and guard is constantly
kept up by day and night, and conf
dence is continued.
Besides the slaves. three free ne.
groes had been hung, and it vas in
tended to drive away all free Persons
OF color.
We have further heard a report tba,
MIR. Fuzlin had shot white man who
bad been completing with the slaves; a
SPaniard was also taken but made his

just returned from the scene OF one OF
the most shocking calamities that i,
has ever fallen TO our lot TO record OF
witness. About 3 O'Clock this morn.
ing, before the sluTbers OF the NIGHT
were broken, the DIV ling house Of
MIR. Frederick Sanford, of Stow. wa,
struck by violent whirlwind, which
raised IT from the ground, and scattered
II into a thousand fragments.
A great part Of the house Law scat
tered over an area Of an acre OF ground
some six or eight rods from the place
where II had formerly stood. Amid
the remains OF broken timbers. of eve.
ry thing that had been In or about the
house, were found the dead bodies OF
Mr.. Sanford's mother and two Of bis
sons, cold, wet, bruised. and mangled
MIR. Sanford just alive. who died in .
short time alter, and his wife and
daughter much injured, and nearly
senseless, who, when we lett, were in
fair way to recover, though vet weak.
and suffering greatly from bodily as
well as mental anguish. A part of the
family. we understand, had Just return.

barely sufficient time to become los,

OF spirits, ito that bourne from whence
no traveller returns
Mrs. Sanford remembers iumn;nr
out OF bed. but more :han thai abe has
no recollection Of. until she found her.
self upon the cold, wet ground. unable
to move. IL is utterly impossible to
describe the scene presented 10 the
eye OF the bebolder in the vicinity of
the dwelling destroyed. We sa. as
many as four hogs killed by The tim
berI one bed ten rods from where the
house had stood. lodged 3O feet high
IN the top OF hickory tree. While an.
other bed, and some other articles were
