An ADVOCATE OFFREE SPEECH SHOT

FROM The Tumi!ioa County Pres @ Sept O.
We have received several letters from friends Id
Texas giving accounts Of cowardly attempt 70 s-
sassinae our old friend Winston Banks, one Of ne
many noble friends Of Free Speech in that State Ihe
following are the facts far We know: Banks was
not trcnuousy opposed to Slavery, but believed mat
free had right 10 discus. all political questions
in all sections Of the Union. He was up " the LIST oi
june 1851, the editor Of THE Teras FIRE. Pres, PUB.
lished at Quitman. From February to June Of that
year he admitted certain mild Free-So commnlcs
lions in his paper and defended in editorial articles nn
right o do so. This excited the ntoerant spirit when
is 10 be found i'll all slave communities, and The FrI
Press forcibly discontinued by mob Of ianatic~
Slavery men, headed by Russell the State Senator for
the district Banks and his contributor required TO
leave the State in Is hours. They both came To Illinois,
Banks after returned Ia Texas, where he hes
since been attending to hs business in the Distinct
Courts Of the State. At Quitman during the nrs'
week Of August last Court was IN session. The
Judge needed certain law-book, and Banks started
to bis residence To procure il for him. When about
hundred yards from the Court-fiouse, hs wa
fred upon by one Bill Marlborough, who had at hi
eide friend who was well armed, and ready with
large double baneled gun, to shoot in the event that
Marlborough did not bring down MS game. Banks fell
at the first fire. terribly wounded his own wife being
witness Of the tragedy. He was then carried home
by his friends.
These two men, we are Informed, and Russell who
% town with them, all armed, were immediately
arrested and bound in the sum Of ten thousand
dollars each.
Russell has been for eighteen months desirous Of
-eeing Banks killed, but was two much oi n coward
to attempt 1t himself, Banks had given him the
Opport Enity 10 do 30 by publishing him as liar" 9
thing which Southern gentleman never permits 10 90
unpublished for twelve months. Marlborough, we pre-
sumo instigated 10 attempt the dannabe deed By
Russell, aided By little gold.
BIZ Guntcr the Postmaster at whose store the as
aseius were concealed before making the assault was
also placed under heavy bonds for breach OF the
peace committed about the time.
There appears to be a determination the pan Of
the authorities TO punish these wrctehes as they
deserve. II il well that they have embarked IN 80
laudable undertaking" for the law Of the land s
nilder than that Of retaliation.
We have not yet learned whether Banks il dead or
