During the night. and while his

Several gentlemen of this city,

Murdered by a slave Wnmnn

Reliable intelligence from Fulton,
Galloway county, Missouri, spprises
us that shocking tragedy occurred
within eight miles OF that place or
5. turdsy last. In the house of Mr.
Barnes was female slave, hired by
the family, OF irrascible and danger
Gus temper, who had frequently
been enragcd at Mr.. Larncs' daugh.
ter, Susanna j., young lady some
eighteen years Of age. Saturday
morning, the slave, Trney, was sent
to work in q corn field. and the
family set off to attend q meeting OF
some kind, leaving Miss Barnes
alone 1T home. On returning from
the meeting they we're horriied tt
find her shockingly beaten to death,
and the floor and the walls of the
dwelling bespattered with blood -
Tie dinner table had been set, evi.
IDENTITY by Miss Barnes, and her knit.
ilng work lay on the kitchen floor. -
The kitchen showed blood and signs
of n struggle B'ood marks were
visible along the walls to the Eas'
room, on the floor and walls OF which
was much more blood, and the room
exhibited plain traces of a violent
strife Next, the blood was tracrt
to the West room, where the murder
had heen committed, and where the
corpse was found lying in gore.
The slave woman was called, and
found to havo changed her dres,

there banged her till she was dead.

TRYING the IlmgnbOo.

The attempt on the part Of Doug
las men to irighten voters into the
support of their candidate, by hold
ing out the idea that civil war would
follow Lincoln's election, was GER
tainly very disgraccful, to say the
best of it, It was virtually an at
tempt to strike down the rights Of
ireemen in our government. To
ask thcm to vote for their candidate
under such an influence, was to ask
them to abandon principles-to place
their judgments and their conscience
in tho keeping Of a few Southern
fanatics. What would our liberties
be worth, should shareholders by
their bluster and their threats, be
permitted to deter us from duty!
We are informed by citizen Of
Putnam county, that leading Demo
Gratis, in his township, on tho day
Of the Presidential election, would
approach Republicans as they came
to deposit their votes, with the do
claration that they were voting for
civil war. And since the election,
certain Douglas men in this section
are saying that the Republicans have
elected Lincoln, and they may now
tight il out themselves, with the
South, in tho civil war that must
necessarily result from his election,
as the Douglas men intend to stand
Ialoo'.
How much better arc such men
than the secessioDists and 'lisunion.
lists of the South? Lincoln is elected
strictly in accordance with tho pro-
visions Of the Constitution, and is as
properly and honorably elected as
any OF his predecessors; aud the in
'dividual who refuses to support the
government, under his adminfstra
tion, against the Resistance of trait
ora, is a traitor himself to all intents
and purposes.
