AN OUTRAGE COMMITTED BY NEGRoEs -
About 64 o'clock, on Sunday morning, a
party of negroes went to dwelling occupied
by Mrs. Edmunds on st. Anbin street, be.
tween Fort and Lafayette, and effected a
forcible entrance They conducted them
selves in most riotous manner, attempted a
crime too horrible to mention, and threatened
to shoot any person who would interfere with
them or offer resistance to their operations
A gentleman who was in the house tried to
drive them of, when they fred several shots
at him, none of which, fortunately, took
effect After frightening the inmates of the
house so that one OF them tainted, they left,
but threatened to come back again and fully
accomplish their intended crime his is
one OF the most horrible outrages that has
been perpetrated 10 this city for many
day The negroes in the Tenth Ward have
become SO lswless that many citizens live in
absolute terror of them. This is but one of
their many acts Of violence Breaking into
private houses and attempting to outrage un-
protected females should call down summary
vengeance upon the heads ofthe perpetrators.
There is talk Of the citizens of the ward or.

WISCONSIN LEGIsLATURE.-We have re-
ceived a copy of the official statistical
list OF the Senate and Assembly of Wis
consin, for the current year, from our
old friend, the Hon. Willard H. Chandler,
of the Wisconsin Senate. From this list
we learn that not a single member of
either branch of the Legislature, nor
any of their officers, save messengers,
were born in that young State. Five
Senator'S and ten AssemblymeA are ma
tiyes of Vermont of these thirteen are
Union men and two are Democrats.
Mr.. Chandler is 33 years of age, a farm
er, and this is his fourth year in the Leg
islature. He was foreman of the Phe-
nix Office dozen years since. We are
not sure that his position as Senator
is higher or more honorable than the
one he so worthily filed in Vermont, but
as he was good printer we have no
doubt he is an equally worthy Senator
and pains-taking legislator.-Brattle5wo
P1aNix.

How THE BoUNTIEs SOMETIMES Goa
soldier named Dole, one of the 10th reg
iment who arrived at 2 o'clock Friday
morning, had his bounty certificate
shaved at drinking saloon on Rail-
road Row, Immediately after the COLA
ton at the City Hall, and then in COM
pany with four or five others, reused up
a hackman, who carried them to the
Five Mile House, vile brothel on the
Indian Orchard road While there Dole
became quite drunk, and when he recov-
cred his senses found that $3.50 of his
money had been stolen, but of course
nobody knew by whom. He will have
very little sympathy for his loss, and
deserves little. 1t is sad fact that a
large proportion of these re-enlisted
men will either squander their bounty
during their furlough, or allow them
selves to be robbed of it. The gamblers
and sharpers which infest our city in
such number have been in high glee of
late, over the many victims among the
re-enlisted soldiers they have freely bled.
They lie in wait at almost every corner,
and the soldier, flush with money and
meaning to "enjoy" himself during his
months freedom, becomes their easy
prey. The wrong is bitter one, and
the remedy under the circumstances Is
] not easy.-SwInafed Republican.
