OLD THEATRE.-Much to the regret Of al
present, the absence Of one Of the stock
company, who was to sustain a very I'M
portant character in the piece, the hne Old
comedy Of "All that glitters Is not gold,
was put on the stsg e last evening, in heuoi
avirriuius." as advertised. Mr.. Proctor,
therefore, did not appear at all. This dis
appointment was unavoidable; though many
were deprived the pleasure Of seeing tho
old Nashville fayorite. Tonight will be
presented at this theatre that sterling old
play "Nick Of the Woods" in which Mr..
Proctor will personate the Jibbenainosay.
This is one Of Mr.. Proctor's best-perhaps
his very beat character. Let there b. H

Reported Outrage inMarshan County.
Guerrinus aud Outlaws at Work.
A Plantation Broken Up.
Detail of twenty-five Soldiers Sent
60 the Place.

On Saturday last, a man named Ransom,
who resides in Marshall county, in this
state, arrived in this city and called on
Colonel SKATER, and made q statement,
which would indicate that there is a band
of outlaws and guerrillGs lowering around
in that county, who need to feel the strong
arm Of the military before they will learn
their duty to their country and 10 human
ity.
He is the owner Of a large tract Of land,
which he has rented in small parcels, to
some forty negro families, who had CON-
menoed working the same, much TO the
disgust Of a few worthless villains in the
neighborhood, who, too lazy 10 labor them
selves, were unwilling to see the blacks
thrive by industry, anu they accordingly
determined to break up AIR. Ransom's plan
tation by some means-ialr OF foul.
Accordingly, about a week since, finding
that Mr.. Z. did not heed their remou-
strauces, they visited a negro house and
stole way a boy whom they kept for some
DAYS, at the end Of which time he escaped
and returned home; but on the following
night two armed men went 10 the house Of
the child and again took him away; but q
budy OF negroes pursued the captors, and
finally rescued kim,-the whole being &C
complished without bloodshed.
On tho next day, however, six or eight
men, al well armed, visited Mr.. Ransom's
house, and made threats against him; but
he and q portion Of his hands, all being
armed, succeeded in driving them of,
woundi~g n of the sssailants severely,
and perhaps mortally.
Mr.. X. al once set out for Nashville 10
ask military protection and while absent
the marsuders returned aud drove the ne
groes from the plantationu. Col. Shaftor
al once detailed two officers, snd twenty
Eve men, who left for the scene Of the
troubles yesterday.
Il tbs statement made by Mr.. Ransom is
true, dligent search should be made for the
villains, and condign and ummary un-
ishment should be visited on them, when
caught. They are doubtless a lazy, worth
less set Of men; for no person who has the
least self-fe'Peet, would engage in such q
y~illainous course Of conduct.

THE TEST OATH.-The United States
Court was lately opened at Oxford, Miss,
by Judge Hill, when large number of the
members Of the bar were present. not one
of whom could take the oath, and therefore,
under the law, could not practice before
the Court. They requested the Judge to
allow them to discuss the constitutionality
of the law, and that he would then be
pleased to decide upon it. He replied that
he was ready to decide without any dis
cussion or argument that he had thoroughly
examined it and was satisfied that the oath
was demonstrations, and ought not to be
exacted from any member Of the bar who
had been admitted to practice in the court
He should, there fore, recognize the right of
evecy lawyer, who had been admitted to
practice in the court, TO continus in his
duties and rights. The PicayLne says:
q "Thus far in every State in the South ex-
cept in the Eastern District of Louisiana,
has this test oath been set aside. Theworst
OF ii is, that in this District the Judge has
declared his conviction that the oath is un.
constitutional, but declines to give the bar
the benefit Of that opinion. s5.ss#

T. The MEMPHIS RloT-The report Of the
commission appointed by General Stone
man shows that the Memphis riots were
the rcsu of Radical policy. Memphis is
city of about $4,000 inhabitents, out of
which only about 5000 Gun vote under tho
rigid prescription law. The majority of
Jews, holding but little property in. the
city. This element elects the Mayor ana
controls the Police, etc. The antipathy of
the Irish to the negroes is we'll known, and
this arrangement placed large number of
Irish in the Police, and thus the quarrel
with the negroes was effected. The riots
were simply an onslaught upon the negroes
by the Police and fire companies, instgated
by the inccndiary harrangues of Mayor
of their own choice and neither civilian,
rebels or returned rebel soldiers had any
thing to do with the outbreak. 1t would
be quite worthy of Radicalism, however, to
take the city government out of the hands
of its people, and then hold the people re-
sponsible for the disordersthat would natu-
rally occur. A dispatch TO the New York
Times says
The truth is simply this, that the dis
franchisement of the citizens of Memphis
has resulted in the domination of o low and
worthless class, with honorable exceptions,
wha are directly responsible for these dis
turbances, and whose chosen Mayor is an
even more guilty partieeps crin,inis, such is
substantially the information received here
in official form, and it is believed that the
Congressional committee will likewise find
evidence corroborating these statements.

A letter from Alexandria to tho New
Orleans Picayune represents the overflow
of Red River rs quite unprecedented. The
whole country around Alexandria was n
sea of water on the 9th inst, the date of
the letter. Many buildings Of Alexondria
were swept away or seriously dcmagcd.
and the loss of property is very great. All
the plantations on the river were covered
with water from the mouth to the raft and
not bale of cotton can he made The peo-
pie of Alexandria all had TO leave except
those who were fortunate enough to have
their houses five or six feet above the
ground, and these were all filled with men,
women and children who had fed there for
safety. Some people cut holes through
their roofs and then got upon the roofs to
keep from Drowning and to give them air
Many fled 10 the pine hills. The ,,writer
says he had padded through, the town in
canoe that morning and could see none ex-
cept those who were also padding canoes
over the city, and occasionally running
aground on the tops OF the fences, and few
others OH tho tops of houses, gazing in
blank despair on the wide waste Of waters.

REGISTER Your NAMEs.-The Chief JUS
tice of Galveston county believes that only
such citizens, particularly those who were
engaged in tho secession movement as ave
taken the amnesty oath and are registered
are entitled to vote.
Whatever doubts any one may entertain
on the subject, We think it is easier and
better to comply with the requisition than.
to test the question, and we trust that all
who have neglected to do so will comply
before the day Of the election. The officers
of precincts will be furnished with lists of
registered voters, and only allow those
whose names appear to vote.-Ggl. Crilidn.
We believe, some of the Chief Justices,
elsew here, have decided differently; but VIC
agree with the Civilian, that all had better
register to insure the right to vote.-1ns-

gSyn We arc informed by n number of
our farmers, that the yield of wheat in this
vicinity, which it was thought q month ago
would be very abundant, will be consider
ably cut short, by the fact that the heads
are generally small, and the meshes rare
" ever containing over two grains, when
they ought, to give fair crop, to contain
from three to four. We have heard many
complaints of this kind within the past two
weeks, and feel satisfied that the crop will
be considerably short of what was antici-
pated. The farmers are just now begin
ming to thresh their wheat, and we would
be glad for them to inform us as 10 the
facts of the yield.
The oat crop which is now being har-
vested is said 10 be excellent.
Corn needs rain, and without it will be
short.

name of Major W. NJ. Walton, of Travis
county, was brought out by his friends in
Austin, and he was taken up generally by
the press Of Western Texas. On receiving
the names of these gentlemen, both being

candidates, We, as we stated at the time,
without personal preferences for the men,
raised the name of Maj. Walton at our
masthead, believing, as We did from the
lights before us, that he was the strong
man before the people, and that tho press
would eventually unite upon him, The
time, however, until the election was too
short, and the press of Eastern Texas, with
the Galveston papers and the Houston Star
and Dispatch, had all united upon Judge
Banton, with the exception of the. Rusk
Observer and GAINESVILLE Standard, while
tie Fpress Sof Western Texas were as
unanimous for Maj, Walton. AS The mat

conservative party will he very nearly d.

we believe, very little danger of the cleo
tion Of the can iidate Of the Pease party
for the same Office, in any event, and in
such event, it is reduced 10 the choice of
men by the friends of Banton and Walton.
We are perfectly sanguine that in the
election of either of them the Office will be
ably and honorably filled. Voters in this
county will find tickets printed with the
names Of each of these gentlemen, and
they must exercise theirjudgmentinv voting.
