Horrible Crinn---Two Children Muir
dcred.

We learn from the Monroe { La. In
teHigenCer, that two children Of John G..
Hudgins, living four miles north of FL
dorado, Ark, were brutally murdered
% The morning of The 7th, while on their
way to school, about mile distant from
.heir dwelling. The older of the child
rem was a girl Of twelve, and the other
a boy of eight.
It WAS evident that the murderer had
attempted au Infamous assault upon the
girl, and had used a knife to enforce her
compliance with his design. Her hands
and body were severely cut, and even
after death The body was horribly mutt
lated, the stomach having been cut open
and the bowels protruding. The dead
of both children were found near the
road.
The Intelligencer learned the above
facts from the father Of the murdered
children. 1t says that evidence of con-
vincing character point to a negro man
named Kit as the perpetrator of the deed.
A large reward has been offered for his
arrest, and parties are now in pursuit.
Since the twin tragedy enacted in Rox-
bury, near Boston, last summer, nothing
SO horrible as the above has stratled the
public.

meucement OF his trial is now at the War
Department. 1t ia s curious document.
consisting chiefly Of religious reflections.
He records conversations with the Lord
as taking place every night. giving bis
own questions and the answer of the
Deity. They principally relate to the
question of his own innocence, which he
attempts to demonstrate in this singular
manner. He mentions his wife and fami-
Iy, and in the most endesring terms. He
is very severe on Gen. Wallace especial.
ly, and on bis own witnesses, who, he
says. were restrained by fear from speak
ing out. and telling what they knew to be
the truth.
Capt. Wirz, in his conn plete diary, un-
der date of October LIST, says man was
at that time placed in his cell to prevent
any attempt he might make to take his
own life, but that the man fell asleep.
He writes that the reason why he did
not put an end to his life was because
what he had suffered was the will of God,
and in the second place he owed it TO
himself. his family. bis relations. and to
the world at large, to prove bis inno-
cence.
