JEFoRTtNAtE OCCCURENCE.-We are panied to learn
that sad afair took place at Carthage Texas the
23d ultimO, between DR.. w. C. Trabue and Mr.. II.
Reese. Soon after separating, two respectable citizens
called at DR.. Trabues house and informed him that
Mr. Reese was in the public square with q double bar
rel gun, Threatening to kill Dr. Trabue on sight Dr.
T. did not leaTe his dwelling for his drug store for
about two hous, and chen proceeded armed with two
shot guns to offend himself He had not been in his
store that haitian hour before Reese returned to
the square with his run, and appeared to be looking
for DR.. THE latter having noticed his manoeuyres
and believing that it was his intention to shoot him in
the store gun In hand he entered the street. and called
out to Mr. Reese to defend himself Both raised their
guns, but Dr. Trabue fired frst Mr. Reese fell and cx-
pred in two hours
Dr.. Trabue surrendered himself up to justice, and
after en- examination was hodto bail to appear before
the district court.
Or. Trabue for anumber Of years resided in this
place as a merchant, and was always considered one
of most quiet and law-abiding citizens Certainly,
he vas Of the las men earth who we ever ex-l
pected to hear Of getting into such difficulty We
most sincerely sympathise with his numerous friends
and relatives.

At least a thousand and one false kilograms have

facts will sooa reach usnot the skrnishing of picket

will have enc untered each other in mortal strifethe
fields will have been flooded with human gore-the
blood Of the same nation-kndred of the nearest ties

The Fonrth of Lnlv.

Every tsing conspired to make the celebration OF
this years anniversary of American independence a
joyous and delightful one. The day was superb, a
| pleasant and gentle breeze rendered the barbecue
ground very comfortable The turnout Of citizens was
by far the largest of any similar OCCASION and we
gratifed to find that there was general feeling and
sentiment of PATRIOTISM pride and JOY pervading the
whole community throughout the day, that rendered
| the celebration most genial and creditable one.
At sunrise salute of eleven guns fired. About
o'clock the procession, composed Of the Shreveport
Sentinels, captain E. Mason, Summer Grove Cavalry
captain OgiIve, and the Shreveport Fire company No
l, II. Hull foreman, commenced moving, and proceed
ed per published route, to parade ground, where
the military reviewed, and acquitted themselves
in soldier-lke manner.
The Shreveport Seatincls out in full force and
made very fine appearance.
The Summer Grove Cavalry, on their chargers, wore
quite military ndformidable appearance. Their uni
form is neat and serviceable.
The Shreveport Fire company Ne |, although but
recently organised, numbered some fifty members, in
their handsome uniform with their engine tastefully
decorated
About II o'clock the Reagan Guards, captain Wood
ward arrived at the barbecue ground and greeted
with cheers. This is company of Texas volunteers
route for Virginia. they are fine and hearty set
Of men, numbering So rank and file, and composed in
part Of three cditors lawyers DOCTORS farmers, etc,
possessing bravery and talents
The ceremonies of the barbecue was opeaed by a
prayer from the Rev. j. F. Ford.
The Hon. j. NJ. Landrum read the declaration of in
dependence, prefaced by very appropriate re-
marks. The orator Of the day, j. T. Heath, Esq, de-
livered handsome address, and acquitted himself very
creditably.
Private Scott, of the Reagan Guards addressed the
assembly in an eloquent manner.
Dinner was announced, and full justice was done to
the fine barbecued meats, etc, etc. after which the
military and fire company formed into rank and marched
through of principal streets, and disbanded
In the evening, the Gaiety theatre the festivities
of the day was closed by eur patriotic ladies, by Il
series of tablcaux wants. gotten up by them for the
benefit of Shreveport Greys, in Virginia. The
tablcaux were produced in manner that would have
reflected credit on experienced performers. The ladies
md gentlemen acquitted themselves to Perfection
The theatre was crowded and each tableaux was rap
urously applaudcd

INTENDED INSURRECrON.-We learn from the TcChe
Courier pubshcdinthe parish of st. Martini that con
spiracy, which threw the parish into state of alarm
some weeks ago had terrible denouement Through
the activity of the vigilance committee of False point
there has been discovered all the plot of this horrible
affair." Twenty-six negroes, and one whiteman swhose
name is not given, were arrested. The confessions
obtained from one Of these, questioned separately de-
without doubt, that an immense conspira-
cy existed having for its object general Instruction
of the negroes the of the white and the
violation of the women. 1t was to commence among
the inhabitants of False point After having killed the
whites, other Eegrees 10 he obliged to join the
band. And the number of insurgents increasing thus
from house to house, finally to divide into two
parties to burn the towns of st. Martin and New he
ria. The white man who commanded them, promised
them large achievements they should com
mence. Twice the affair failed from unexpected cir
cumstanccs Justice has overtaken the miserable set
Six negroes were hung on the 24th of June, eleven
have been sent to the penentiary and the Others re-
turned to their masters after correction. The
miserable white man willrcceve impartial trial but
will without the shadow of doubt be hung.
The editor of the franklin Banner says in our re-
cent journeyings among the people of this State and
Mississippi we found great unity of feeling everywhere
and heard Of servile disturbances Of consequence
anywhere But there no doubt that the subordinate
race are everywhere looking for wonderful demon
straton Of power in their behalf aud they wait patti
emily and quietly fer the fancied jubilee. They ask
no questions Beyond their ranks. They evidently
have the most foolish antcipatonz, and utterly false
A., r
issue. Such imaginatons may be easily worked on
by heartless villains. These worse than land Pirates
should be watched. Some of them have already been
disposed of after the LYMAN style. But We strongly
object to rash proceedings which mny sacrifice limo
cont men. Ignorant, malicious, and selfconstituted
Jurors make dangerous Judges
