terrible outrage in the adjoining parish

Story, residing about ten miles below
the city, was aroused by the noise of per-
sons breaking open the doOrsuf his hous
with axes, ana before he could give an
alarm, about a dozen negroes, with one
white man, rushed into the house, armed
with axes, clubs and pistols. They at
once commenced firing at and beating
the inmates, and searching for valuables
70 steal. They succeeded in finding a
small amount Of money and other val
uables. They shot one lady, whom they
left for dead. Fortunately, although She
fell from theaefects OF the shot, she is not
dangerously wounded-yet probably Grip
pied for life in one limb. Gen. story
was seriously bruised in attempts
ing 10 arrest their progress. His
servants coming to his rescue the parties
fed. Twoof those implicated have since
been identified andarrested, and are con-
fined in the Jail of the Parish Of st. Ber-
uard. Their object, they confess, was 10
plumber, as they understood that Gen.
Story kept a large amount of money in
his house, and if necessary, they were to
murder the inmates and burn their bodies
in the building. II is one of the most
daring and terrible Ouurages ever peFpe-
trated in this vicinity. Every person
concerned in it deserves to be hung
