TERR IBLE AFFAIR DE SoTo COUNTY, MIssIssIP-
PA YOUNG MAN BEATEN TO DEATH WITH CLUB BY
HIS FATHER.-We have just heard the particulars
of a most terrible affair which occurred in De Soto
county, Mississippi, ten miles northeast of Herman
do, last Saturday. Mr.. William Nesbitt, planter
of that county, and formerly, we learn, resident
OF this city, wished his son, Young man who had
recently embarked in business, to take a gentle
man, who was a favorite of the old gentleman in
the establishment as partner. The young man
objected to the arrangement in very stern terms,
and quarrel ensued. During the quarrel the
young man stepped in the doorway of the store,
remarking that he would deliberate what his
father had proposed until the next morning. At
this the old gentleman, enraged that his would
not obey him, seized billet of wood, and striking
the youngiman on the head, felled him to the floor,
and afterward dealt him two three additional
blows fracturing the skull, and horribly mangling
him. Nesbitt was immediately arrested aid lodged
in Jail to await the issue of his sons wounds. After
lingering two three days the young man died.
Nesbitt is wealthy planter, and has heretofore
been universally esteemed.-AemphisA Argus, May II.

JACOB S. HARDEN.--It is now quite certain that
Jacob S. Harden will be executed on the 18th OF
June next. He will be hung in the Jail yard, an
enclosed space which will measure about one hum
dred feet either way. This small area will pre-
clude the possibility of large number assembling
near the scaffold, but if the same plan is followed
as in previous executions, available spots for wit
Messing the hanging may be gained on many of the
surrounding buildings

CONFESSION, nor has he said that t ne hung, others
Wouio nave to hang with him. Neither has he
made any attempt to commit suicide. In the con-
oition In which he is kept, ironed by day and
night, and Waterman in his cell with him all the
time, such an attempt would be certain to prove
abortive.-Ns,oark Advertiser.
