of a resident Of that place, and pro-
ceeded to the bedroom with light,
which was occupied by the man and
his wife - stripped down the bad
clothes from them, and deliberately
proceeded to tar and feather the mans
wife. During the time, one of the
four men stood with a drawn sword
over the man and threatent d him with
instant death if he offered any resis-
lance or made any noise. After going
through with the tar and feathering,
they fled, and one Of them was tracked
to public house in the vicinity, on
reaching which the doors were found
bolted, and every thing as quiet as if
the occupant was and had been, enjoy
ing his usual rest for the night. On
being aroused BY the humping on the
door, he got up and made complaint at

the night, when it was discovered that
he had forgotten to wash his face, it
being covered with blacd. He was ar
rested and and recognized by the wo-
man as being one who aided in admin
istering the tar and feathers. Two
