Lynch Lcso.-Bioody ou,raSe.-Wc
heard yesterday, some oi.he particulars
Of an outrage. resulting in tho death oftwo
pnrsous. perpetrnlsd by party Of some
twenty or more individuals, upon plan
ter by the name Of Adams, and his lro.her
residing about eight miles from Coying-
ION, which we fain would hope, for The
sake of humanity. may prove upiounded.
The circumstances OF the tragedy as
detailed 10 US, were briefly these. Adams
was engaged in lawsui, with sSme Of
his ncighbors. which terminated in lis
favor. Shortly afterwards Zoo Thursday
last,) about 20 men rode up TO Adams
place at noon day, aud found him quietly
seated upon Que o! the fences OF his pre-
misses. The rins-leader Of The party asked
him lhe knew wha, they had come for
TO which he replied that he did not unless
they meant to kill him. He was told ihu,
such was their object aud they then cotri.
rnenced firing upon and killed him imme-
diately. They likewise killed brother
ofhis. Adams wife escaped with herson,
lad Of IL or Is years Of ago, and reach
cd Covington in safety, after having been
fred AT by several Of the parry.
We learn thar another brother Of Adams
arrived in the city yes,efday. with letter
from the District Attorney, requesting The
Governor 70 furn.sh the necessary force to
capture The assailants. as they were all
armed and tho powerful for the civil au-
Ihorities Of the parish. Adams wife and
son were yet in Covins,on, and were afraid
to return home. Great excitement was
produced by The ouirage--which we yet
hope may MOI be as bad as represented
