The other day, an Italian pauper and
his sen raid visit to our porticn Of the
country. representing themselves TO he
in most distressing condition, and So
Letting aims. They had a lot IF paper,
recommending them to confidence and
certifying them TO be "poor, ship-wrcck-
ed men, and every way worthy objects
Of charity. The man was dark browed
wretch who we'll wager would kill man
for five dollars. He claimed to be aftiiut-
ed with rheumatism, and in this way
sought to work upon the sympalhics Of
The people. We do not know that we
can say starvation to all such,' hut our
stock of the milk of human kindness gets
very, rery sour whenever they come
about. The boy was able-bodied, and
We think it an ill-directed sympathy t,iat
encourages such vagabondism.
While speaking Of beggars, vagabonds,
etc, we know not whether 'twould be
aniss to mention another class Of worth
less Migrants. We mean the strvlling
Yankee book-peddlers who occasionally
stray through this region. Possessed of
any quantity of impudencc and brass,
they will go to mans house, and to get
clear of them one must buy some Of his
cheap publications. After selling his
books impudence takes the place Of sy-
cophancy in his manners, and unless you
actually order the fellows off, they will
assume rights, and take liberties the most
familiar friend would hesitate to assume
and take. We are in favor of the Legis-
lature enaciing law prohibiting these
Yankee suavengers coming into the State.
Books can be bought at book stores; if
not as cheaply, we can have the consola-
ton of knowing they were bought from
respectable men, not from impudent Yam
KEGS, probably Abolition incendiarics.

We learned on the cars, this morning
Of Il sIIorking tragedy, in two parts, en-
acted on Sun ay ami Sunday night, a,
Enterprise, Mississippi.
1t appears, from the imperfect partic.
ulars wnici have reached us, that ne
gro fellow, belonging to DR.. Miller, OF
Wayncsboro, and attached to the gravel
train on the Mobile ami Ohio Railroad
committed rape, IN Sunday, upon the
Person Of young woman, at Enterprise
forcioly seizmg and shockingly abusing
the unfortunate victim Of his ierocio,l,
lust. Intelligence of the vile outrage
soon spread through the community, and
the ex, itement became. intense. The
villain was seized anl~carried before d
Jusli;e of the Peace, where sumnar,
Examination Was had, an he Was after
wards conveyed to what was deemed q
place of safety, to await the further pro
cess of the law.
The aroused and ndisnant feelings Of
the people We're. however, unappcased
and it Was determined to visit summary
and terrible punishment upon the often
der. Accordingly, at night he was taken
from his place Of confinement and hung
by the neck to limb Of an adjoining
Tree. The efforts of one or two persons
to allay the excilemn aud prevail upon
the people to defer to the slower process
Of the law were utterly unavailing.
On Monday morning. when our infor-
mant left Enterprise, the negro was still
dangling from the tree Of his execution,
terrible and We hope it may prove a
potent warning against the repetition Of
such villaini,s.
The young woman thus craelly out.
ragged Is said to be virtuous and respec-
table, and her mental suffcrinls are re.
presented as being intense and heart.
