Slaughter Of Negroes.

1t has been rumored for few DAYS
past that the Yankees, who now in
fest Norfolk, on a recent occasion ex-
hibited their " friendship" for the
negroes by shooting down some eight
or ten of them in the streets. Doubts
We're expressed as to the truth of the
rumor, and we therefore omitted any
mention of it; but the Petersburg"
Express, of yesterday, asserts, upon
the most unquestionable authority.
that the horrible tragedy was enac-
ted on the streets of Norfolk, and
under circumstances of atrocity and
lood-thirstiness which would have
become "tiends damned" than boosted
New England Puritans, who claim
all the virtue, all the piety, and all
the civilization, which are generally
conceded to the people OF the once
United States.
Our information states, says the
Express, that free negro, brought
from New York by u New York regi-
ment, feeling aggrieved at some Of
fence offered by the officer, and
believing what Massa Greedy" and
others had SO inGustriously taught
him. that he WAS as good us ANY
white man, redressed his wrongs by
killing the officer who had inflicted
them.

We learn by passenger that on

ing that Mcclellan and Gen. Lee had
a fight near Richmond, in which the
enemy lost 10000 killed, and l o, 600

corroborated by all the passengers

They have now fairly surrounded

The only casualty, is the death

grape shot.
A Yankee deserter says their
boats are badly injured, and that we
have killed and wounded over 800.
1t was their intention to give land
fight. but this will probably be de-
layed on account of this reception.
They could not land their forces.
HOUSES STRUCK.
A great number of buildings were
struck by the shells this morning.
Some were very much injured, but we
believe the greater part were but
slightly damaged. Among the most
prominent was the Masonic Hail.
Almost the whole city is filled with
the relics of this mornings terrific
work.
According to the best estimate ITO
cannon shots were fred per minute.
During the bombardlnent this

with canister, struck our residence
and scattered things in very unn,an-

intention of the Yankees to abandon
it entirely. They have destroyed

greatly reduced their forces, but
there are still some 1000 or more

SHREVEPORT, FRIDAY JULY H. 1862.

The killing Of their officer 80 OK
asperatea the men, that they determ-
ined to seek their revenge upon the
inocent negroes of Norfolk. Infuri-
ated with madness they left their
camp at Harrison's Farm, and pro-
ceeding to Norfolk, attacked every
negro they met, free and slave, down
Church street to Free Mason, and
down Cumberland and Kone streets.
This indiscriminate slaughter was
continued until over 100 of the un-
offending creatures had been violent
ly cut and MANNED. And, when our
informant left three negroes had died
of their injuries, two more were lin
gering in ertrenais, and scores were
suffering excruciating tortures. DR..
-, a physician of great ability
and high standing, said at least 100
had been injured by this cruel at
tack, and the constable in his report
to the Mayor, put down the number
manned and wounded at between
100 and $50.
The Day Book, which was then in
existence, received orders from the
military governor Of Norfolk, that
under no circumstances was the mas
acre to be limited at in the columns
of that paper, and the correspondents
of all Yankee journals in the city
were positively prohibited from ma
king any reference to the butchery
in their letters. Fortunately a cou-
pie of British officers CHANGED to be
on the street at the time, and wit
messed the whole affair. Through
these gentlemen the truth will reach
Europe, and our transatlantic breth-
ren will have an opportunity of
learning something Of the civilization
of their Goldfish cousins on this side
Of the ocean.
These are the people who make
such loud protestaoion of love for
the poor. down trodden African
and who have come South to amelio-
rate his condition. A more deceit
