SALISBURY. n. G.. Nov %.

LrNcn1Se.-On Wednesday night, the
18th inst. SIX white men, some of whom
were painted, and one colored person en-
tered the house of Mr.. Nathan Lambeth,
Davidson county, seized his person and
dragged him some distance from the house
and there gagged him and inflicted on his
body several hundred blows with sticks.
Four of the party becoming somewhat a.
larmed at the consequences, fed, while
the other two remained and renewed the
beating, until Lambeth became inscnsible.
and tainted.
In this situation the party left him, but,
after coming to, he wi'h great difficulty.
reached the house, ard on Thursday night
died. 1t stated by the physician who at
tended him, that he was Scared and Ia
cerated from his neck to his heels, and that
there was the appearance CT several blows
having been inflicted on his stomach and
abdomen, the latter Of which, no doubt,
was the cause of his death. The cmcum-
stances that led to this glarin5 offence
were these: A Mr.. John Goss, who had
formerly resided in that neigHborhood, but
lately returned from Missouri on business,
had deposited with Mr. John Lee between
eight and nine hundred dollars in specie.
for safe keeping. This money was taken
from the desk Of Mr.. L., on Saa>li'y' ;igh;
the Sd inst. zee.

PoRK.-On enquiring yesterday, we
could not learn that single hog had been
purchased this fall by our pork packers, or
that any contracts for hogs had been en-
tered into.
Hogs are more abundant than money.
Drovers cannot make sales or get Offers
Three dollars per hundred has been named
but purchasers cannot be found to offer
that price, or drovers to take it. We doubt
whether there will be many hogs packed
this winter. No one seems to have much
money to invest in pork, and we under
stand our banks will be unable to discount
a: dollar for that or any other business.

military works should be at or near Cape
Sable. and on other parts of the coast, and
in connection with Key West and other
islands. The protection of commerce re-
quire all our islands about the peninsula
to be inhabited by an orderly population
subjected to the restraints of law and 60
vernment, and ready to succor, instead of
to plunder vessels in distress.
The last and present administration, Pc
netrated with these great national views,
have commenced the business Of removing
the Indians, settling the country, and ma
king the 10000 square miles of East Flo,
rida, now desert waste, overrun by sava-
ges, fruitful and cultivated land, covered
by inhabitants, protected by defences and
tributary to the wealth. strength and secu-
rity- of the Union. With this view the
country was purchased from the Indians
by generous treaty stipulations years ago.
With this view military campaigns have
been carried on there at a great expense
of life and money; with this view the arm
ed occupation bill was brought, to estab-
ish 10000 armed settlers in the country,
and oay them in land for maintaining the
possession of it. The Southern Conserva-
tives, by joining the Abolitionsts and Fed
eralists to defeat the views Of the Admin
istration, defeated the this bill; and to their
conduct the continuance of the war, with
all its attendant calamities must be attribu-
ted. -
LOOK OUT FOR MURREL MEN.-A few
days since, two gentlemen in carriage
came into the neighborhood of Joseph
Spurgen, Esq. in Davidson County, and
sold negro to Mr. Jacob Yokely for 600
dollars,
Mr.. Yokely paid them in two horses,
and 800 casll-after which they left the
neighborhood.
The negro seemed we'll pleased with his
new home until Saturday night last, when
he decamped, and has not been heard of
since.
The presumption is, from circumstances
that the whole was designed by the negro
and men, to swindle Mr.. Yokely out of
his property. After the men left, he was
seen TO have ahundred dollar bill, and some
specie.
Mr.. Yolscly is sai;l to be IN honest md
hard working man, but not SO well calcula-
ted 10 Judge between Mmyel man and an
honest man. 1t would be well for some
of our honest farmers and tradesmen to be
more on the alert towards strangers traf-
ficing through the country in negroes and
other stolen property.
