NOrrid Murder Of A Man and his
Wife by Slaves.

A correspondent of the New Orleans
Picayune, from Bayou Sara, Sept, gath,
says:
Il ha We jus. heard Of one Of the most
outrageous acts ever perpetrated by hu.
man hands. A man and his wife were
murdered on Point Copee, and n lac a.
bout sixteen years Of age was knocked
in the head .hro wn over board from o flat
boat. The young man was not killed.,
bu, swan TO the shore and reported the
circumstances and Identifies some negroes
belonging to a planter by the name Of
Sneed as the guilty persons. The slaves
had either ran away or been sent away
to avoid punishment, but the citizens in
the vicinity required Mr. Sneed to pro-
Guce them, or he would be held respon-
sible for murder. W%hereupon he and 2
other gentlemen star,ed to the parish
Concordia, where he said the negroes
were to be found. They have not re-
turned yet. The empty boat is at Bayou
Sara, where it was tab en- up. The bod
les were found floating in the river a,
short distance below, and were taken gu.
Of the water and deposited in the grave.
yard near that place. The ferale found
to be enciente. The weapon used for
this buichery was a coupling.

NcsSclrede and Napoleon,

ltisa remarkable fact that of all The

took part in public affairs a, the fall o.
the first Napoleon, the only now remain.
ing in place is that Russian Minister, who
commenced his political career as a pow
eriul foe Of The Napoleon dynasty, which
he still lives TO combat. All the public
men ofthe United States, WHO were then
eminent in political lie, have departed
and a new generation occupy their pla.
ces. In Europe none remain bu. Mes

has survived two imperial masters; who,
as the Minister of Alexander the First
opposed the aggressions of the grea Ma.
poleon, and now. as the Minister of AL

Napoleon the Third. Forty years of
political supremacy! What hosts oil
statesmen has this powerful and venera

which ended in The treaty of Vienna, who
continues in active political life; Meter

ceased to play an active part in the grea,
