HORRIBLE BRUTAL1rY.-A man named WI
liams, who resided at the time near Lick Skill
let, in Winston county, same two or three weeks
since took little negro girl and swung her up In
horizontal position, her head about two feet from
the ground and her feet about one foot, and while
in this position, commenced whipping her. Every
time the girl made any demonstration OF pain, the
fend logged her with sharp stick he prepared
for the sion. In this manner the monster CEN
tnued his cruelties nearly all night, or until he
fairly tired out, when he released his victim
she died the next day and was buried. The neig h-
bors suspected all was not right, disinterred the
BODY held an inquest over it, and brought in q
verdict accordingly The sheriff with posse OF
men went in pursuit of the miscrcant, but they
were unable to catch him, he having fled. Will
| liams has heretofore borne good moral charac-
ter, but it is surmised by many that he has
also whipped to death another negro girl, as there
is another grave the spot where the last un-
| fortunate victim was Inferred, which is supposed
to be that of girl who disappeared very suddenly
about year sicne. [Atala (Miss.) Gazette.
