gram making inquiries of Gen. Sheridan,
that he meant to give that officer hint
to send back a report favorable TO Monroe

had not, like tile president, joined Mon
roe's party, and he therefore told the eX-
act truth respecting the massacre and Ms

Horrible Murders.

1t is our painful duty to announce this
week, the killing in the Choctaw Nation Of
three of our citizens, Mcssrs. Chas. C.
Heard, Joel H. Foster, son Of Josiah
Foster, and S. Basham, son Of Solo
mon Basham, who had started for Mar
shal, Texas, where Mr.. Heard has been
located during the war
The particulars, which are rather mea-
gre, we gather from a traveller who was
passing through the city on Thursday
last from Texas. On Tuesday morning,
the 10Th ult., just this side of Boggy De
pot, he learned Of the murder, and also
saw the bodies; they were all killed with
an axe, their heads being cleft open. The
murdcrers were two negroes who were
along, one Of whom formerly belonged to
Mr.. Foster. After the murder they took
the buggy and horses, and started fol
Red River.
These gentlemen started ON their jour
ncy the Friday morning before, having
with them four mule wagon, and bug
gy, with two mules. Mr. Heard, it il
known, had in the ncighborhood Of from
fifteen hundred to two thousand dollars
i'll gold in his possession, and the othc
men considerable amount.
FURTHER PARTICULARs.-By later informa
tion we are in receipt of further particular,
which we gather from movers on their wa,
to Pope Co. from Texas. The murders wer
committed about four miles from Wellcs' Sta
ton After committing the act they took tn
buggy and mules and started ON towards Re,
River. These movers passed the ncgros in tn
buggy on the road Tuesday noon at Carriag
Point about a days travel beyond Boggy De
pot they were driving on and appeared +
he eating their dinner. The murders mus
have been committed after the uniortunat
victims had retired to their tent Monday nigh
and the tent set on fire, Is the bodies of two
Mr.. Heard and Foster were horribly burned
the leg of one of them. being entirely burnc
oil. Mr.. Basham, ii is conjcctured rot out o
the tent rs he was found outside
The bodies and wagon and four mules AM
other valuablcS are in the hands of Mr.. Mile
ut the station. waiting to be disposed of b,
the friends of the parties. Parties went il
pursuit of the negroes, and we have no doubt
they will be arrested and brought to trial be-
fore the United States Court.
