A B~ARDAaous MURDSR.-I have Just learn
ed of q 6endish murder perpetrated recently
upon the person. Of a young married lady near
the city of Natchez, Miss. A Yankee Lieu
tenant and two private soldiers entered the
house of the party deceased, who, in the alb
sence of her husband, was the only occupant
ofthe place, demanding where her husband
was concealed, She refused to tell him, and
ut the same time asked what they wanted
with him. The Yankee officer told her that
wbstthey wanted with him was their business,
and .no of hers, and sid that he would rive
her three minutes to re 'eal the whereabouts
of her husband, and if she did not do so in
that time, he would take her life. { She refus-
ed pcremptorily, when, the time bav,ng ex.
PRED, the murderer deliberately took OF his
scarf. and. with the assistance of hi. men, hung
her up by the neck in her own house, and left
her in the agonics of a violent death. She
was afterwards cut, down by her friends, but
life had long since been extinct. The gentle.
inen who relates this horrible, strange, foul
and unnatural murder is now in this town.
and is an old citizen of Natchez, having edited
at one time a p eekly journal in that city. He
says he saw the dead body after it was cut
down. Ifthis terrible tale be truc-and we
