Editor Telegraph: SIR:-On the 22d instant
the Yankees complimented our town with their
presence, and an well assured that their con
duet while here. and in the adjoining neighbor-
hoods, had a good effect; and we have some
christians here VINO We're mp TO that Time con
siderri doubtful. OF all the petty thievng
that have ever been called to witness, theirs
capped he climax. Negroes who were III the
very winter Ut existence, were arrested and
robbed Of the last shilling OF their hard-earned
savings. But few houses escaped being search
WI. ana a goodly namber were ieft minus valu-
able contents The appearance OF the enemy,
about hundred strong, was perfect sur
prise tO the citizen and soldier. Five or six Of
the former were made prisoners, and marched
to Pine Bluff, and about the same number of
soldiers served the same fats. Twelve OF four
teen horses and mules were also captured, and
the torch applied to the county Jail, which was
consumed BY the flames.
Five miles northeast Of this place the most
brutal and cold-boOded murder Of the war was
committed by party Of Federal soldiers upon
the person of VIM q. Finney. About the
dawn Oi day party Of soldiers approached the
house Of tho deceased. One or more OF the
party dismounted, and entered the house Of
Mr.. Finney, whs hal just gotten up and
dressed, and was in his private room enjoying
a morning smoke. He was seized by one of
the party and dragged from his room into the
hall Of the building, and from thence to porch
leading to the dining-room and private room OF
Mr.. Finney's two daughters. The latter the
scanps attempted to enter. The deceased pro-
tested against their doing SO, stating that that
was the private room Of ais daughters; that his
daughters were not up 50 early, and were in
their night dress. One of the party turned
upon Mr.. Finney, and deliberately placed a
pistol against his head and fired. The shot
took effect, and the noble selfsacrincing patriot,
who dared to raise his voice in vindicatioz Of
his own right, and the sacredness ef his daugh-
tcrs' private room, became the victim OF a say :
age and brutal foe.
The deceas ed was sixty three years old, and
very hard of hearing in TACT almost deaf. He
was one OF the most highly esteemed citizen:
of Drew county, Indeed, the State could not
boast better citizen truer patriot.
