The telegraph has doubtless appriscd you
Of another period Of the reign Of mob law in
this unfortunate city. And this time, under
circumstances more to be deplored and with |
less provocation, too, than On any previous
occasion. The circumstances, as learn from
the best authority, are briefly these. On Fri
day evening two negroes, one named George
Marshall, we1l-known barber, and another
named james Shelton, waiter at Anderson's
ice cream ealoon, started out together tor
amusement. a little after seven O'Clock they
we're Eeen in the Third Ward by couple OF
Irl6Emen, named Darby Carney and
John Brady. At the time the latter
saw them, the negroes were passing
a couple OF ladies', whom the lrlenmen say
thcv iusu!tcd; wLereupop they demonstrated
with The negroes, whtn the atfray occurred in
which Carney and Brady were stabbed, the
former so severely that be died on Saturday
light at eleven O'Clock. Brady was lot so
much injured, aud will soon recover. lamp.

was slightly cut in the eide Carney and Bra
dy were both il liquor, and they allege that
lie Negroes were also, but as they went dl,
rtctly 10 Dan Rics's show, and were observed
there, this report is doubted. Nothing more
wps seen o1 the negroes Until early Saturday
morning, when they were discovered and ar
