HoRr1D MUHDEa.-Tbe most savage and
cold-blooded murder that We have heard of
for some time, occurred on Saturday night
last, ON the Mississippi, a little above Match
ez. The circumstances, as communicated to
us, are sufficient to chill the feelings of hui
! manly. 1t seems that a river trader, kn0wn
as Colonel Dawson, or Dorsey, in descending
the river with the remnant Of a stock Of mer.
chandizc, aud two females, whose names or
characters, are not known, had picked up
somewhere in Arkansas, a man, who so far
ins&nuated himself into his confidence, as to
get permission TO travel on the boat, and had
continued as a passenger or sort Of assistant,
untllthey reached the neIghborhood of Water.
proof, where they were engaged in a quarrel,
which ended ia his being dismissed from the
boat, With lnpreGatIOnS and threats of ven
geauce. This occurred some time during the
day on Saturday, and on Sunday morning,
about three O'Clock, the boat was discovered
on fire, drifting down. Thu negroes in the
neighb0rhotd succeeded in drawing it ashore
and SURPRISING The fire, when a spectacle
presented itself, too horrid to contemplate.
Dorsey was found lying IN his berth, with his
feet burnt off, and his head and face shock
ingly mulilated, with blows apparently dealt
with an axe, and the two girls on the opposite
side in a like condition. As soon as. the cir.
cumstances were known, and the direction
ot the supposed perpetrator was ascertained,
Mr.. CarIin, with the most praiseworthy dis.
interestedness, left The city Of Natchez in pur-
suit, and with the assistance of Mr.. Lumm
and Mr.. Graves, citizens of Louisiana, and
through The insirumentaIity Of MesSrs. Geor-
