Negro Conspiracy in Mississippi.

The Marion (Miss.) Republican gives an uc-
count of the discovery Of a negro conspiracy Of
Gaflantsville, Jasper county. 1t says
"a Trustworthy negro on a %neighboring plan
tation, after having received pledges Of Secre-
cy, revealed the existence OF the conspiracy 10
an overseer, and requested him ID repair TO a
certain place, in the midst Of a dark unfre'
quented swamp, and see for himself. The
overseer did not 60 but the next morning he
took with him svme friends aud went 10 the
spot designated by The faithful negro. There
they saw every indication OF a lorge crowd
having been assembled; horses had been tied
up, fires kindled. and, from appearances, The y
calculated that upward Of one hundred negr0eS
had there assembled on the preceding night
They left the spot and the neighborhood was
quickly alarmed. Several negroes were taken
up, and among them the leader. The greatest
excitement was prevailing in the country, a
cou neil was held, and il was decided that the
negroes should be hung Immediately; ropes
were procured, anG the sentence Of the coun-
Gil was about 10 be exrcuted, when the crowd
relented, fearing lest the innocent should per-
ish with the guilty.
"The negroes were then severely whipped,
and they confessed that the conspiracy extend,
ed throughout large section of county; tina;
there existed several other organizations, which
they called "schools," in the neighborhood,
and that their object was 10 organize in suf-
fcient force and march, increasing their force
as they went, to q free State. No III OF
ammunition Of any kind could be discovered;
but the negroes confessed that they were 10
meet at Garlandsville next Saturday night Ia
make a start. When asked why they selected
that place as a rendezvous, they could give nc
reason. and the presumption is that they in
tended to sack the place and murder The in
habitnnts. Two white men, they say, have
been among them, but their names were mol
known TO the negroes, nor was anything de-
veloped which could identify them. Arms anj
ammunition are probably concealed somewhere
as such a scheme would never have been al.
tempted without Them"

and that she hoped and trusted he would
meet her and thus afford her an opportuni-
ty of brief personal intercourse with the
idol of her heart. The two wags had between
thirty and forty copies of this letter written by
female friend of theirs, and they sent these
copies to between thirty and forty members Of
Congress, selecting those Of course who were
known to entertain very exalted opinion Of
their own personal fascinations
Every thing being thus arranged, the two
jokers called upon us and another young gen.
tlemen, explained what they had done, and in
vited US to get into their carriage, ride with
them to the point of assignation, and see the
sights We uuhesitatingly consented, and
we saw sights sure enough. Riding upon the
designated square, we beheld the whole of the
thirty or forty members, Northern men and
Southern men, Wings, Democrats, and Know
Nothings, walking to and fro, all gazing earn
estly in every direction and at every female
figure to discover the object of their anxious
search.
We concluded, that if few more copies of
the letter had been sent to members of the
House of Representatives, the House would
have had to adjourn for the want Of a quorum.
