A Slave Burned at a Stake.

The Vicksburg Sun has come in pos
session of the following facts in relation
to the burning of negro man at Mr..
Woolfolk's plantation OBJ Deer Greek. 1t
seems that negro thus summarily dealt
with was a vicious, self-willed fellow, and
becoming offended at woman (blaek)
on the same plantation, walked up to her
as she was working in the field and de-
liberately plunged the knife into her
breast. Upon perpetratiDg this bloody
deed be fed to the woods, not. however,
before giving several other negroes to up-
derstand that their time would come next,
and after them two white men living hard
by. Dogs we're put on bis tracks, and af-
ter a chase of several hours he was cap
tured, though not without a desperate
struggle-the pursuers being put to ell
they knew to take him alive. The resi-.
dents of the vicinity decided to burn him
at the stake, which was done in the pres
ence of all the negroes on that and sever
al of the adjoining plantations, all OF
whom seemed terrified out of their wits
on viewing so awful scene. The spirit
of the doomed negro never was subdued.
He died cursiug bis judges-his last words
being that be would 'take vengeance on
them when they met each other in -"

Mormonism has again shown itself IN

tah Young Joe Smith claims to be the
true leader, as matter of Inheritance,
we suppose. of the Mormon Church. and
at Amtoy be was installed into Office By
a Conference-though no account Is Civ

gates derived their installing power. His
title is s"President Prophet " and church
is organized under him, that is declared
to be entirely independent of the organi-
zation of which Brigham Young has so
long been prophet, priest, and king. We
wish we'll to the Illinois branch, because
it opposes polygauy and the other vices
of the infamous disciples at | tab; and
Smith declares that be will only teach the
two doctrines of religion and morality
He also inculcates patriotic duties and o.
bedieuce to the laws of the land, speaks
kindly of the anti MormoGs. and says
that he holds no feelings of enuity tow

his teachings will not be without in6uense
even in far-off Utah, where reformation
