The Murder of Colonel Neahercutt-
Further Particulars.

We take the following further particu-
lars from the Newbern Republican, whose
special reporter visited the scene on Mon
day:
Mrs. Nethercutt, who was reported to
have died from her injuries, is alive, and it
is thought will recover. The murder was
committed on Sunday night between and
S O'Clock, and pretty much as reported in
Tuesdays Republican. Colonel Nethercutt
and his family, consisting Of himself, his
wife, son, and daughter, and young lady
teaching school in the neighborhood, were
seated around the fire, the Colonel reading
the Bible. One of the murdercrs only en-
tered the room at first, and speaking a
few words, simultaneously raised mus
ket and shot Colonel Nethercutt, al
most instantly killing him. A second
man now entered the house, and upon
opposition being offered by Mrs. Neither
cult, one Of them raised chair and struck
her on the head, the blow stunning her.
The men now inquired for the ColonePs
rife, which they procured, and also twenty
dollars in specie, which was taken out OF
the bureau drawer. There were one or
more men heard outside the door, but up
to this time only two had entered. They
now informed the ladies and Colonel
Netbercutt's son, lad Of about sixteen
wears, that if they would be quiet no harm
Should befali them. The ladies and the
vounc man were then led to the smoke
house, the murderers locking them up.
From this place the unfortunate family
heard the murdererS ransacking the house.
They remained for nearly an hour, and
about an hour after their departure young
Nethercutt made his escape from the
smoke house and gave the alarm to the
neighbors.
Upon entering the house Colonel Ne
thercutt's body was found lying, face
down, near the fire place, and on removing
it it was discovered that he had fallen
with one arm SO near the fire that the SIDE
of it was burned. In corner OF the room
Law lot of seed cotton, clothing, and iur-
niture, which had evidently been fired by
the outlaws, but the fire had gone out.
On the cotton was found the wearing ap-
parel of different members Of the family,
torn, cut, and partially burned. A mirror
had been taken from the wall and broken
to atoms. A marble top which had cover
ed q bureau was also broken, upon the
floor. The murdercrs had taken nothing
with them except the money and rifle.
They evidently attempted to destroy the
house and contents by tire.
A remarkable circumstance IS the TACT
that the Colonel's pockets had not been
riAed.
1t was some time before any OF the
neighbors could be induced to 60 near the
house. as it was thought the murderers
were still about, and prepared Tor resist
ance.
Word reached Sheriff Colgrove at about
2 o'clock in the night, who at once sum-
moned posse and proceeded to the scene
of horror. Pursuit was Instituted at once,
and traces Of the murderers were dlScoV-
cred which it would be imprudent to dis
close.

1t is rumored, but We trust without any
authority, that horrible plot has been
discovered on the part of the Ferians to
ki,lnap Queen Victoria while visiting the
sanctuary Of the late very much lamented
Prince Albert, and shipping her on board
a gunboat to Abyssinia, where that ferocious
savage could have carried out at his lei
sure his intention to compel her to marry
him. The plot, however, seems to have
been discovered in season, and the Queen
only visits the aforesaid sanctuary at pre-
sent under the protection of regiment OF
cavalry Greeley.
The executions in Manchester, and the
suppression Of liberty of speech and OF
meeting in Ireland, are far from intimi-
dating the Fenians.

Arrest OF Leader in Recent Alabama

MONTGOMERY, ALA, December 16.-The
Advertiser has reliable advices of the ar
rest of George Shorter, negro, of this city,
who was one of the principal leaders of
the black insurrectionary movement in
Bullock county. Shorter claims to have
come from Illinois, or some northwestern
State, and says he was commissioned
by the Radicals there to organize govern
ment in the South. He was informed upon
by the blacks, and arrested by party OF
blacks and whites. When arrested, the
farm negroes wanted to hang him, but the
whites saved him, and lodged him in the
county Jail. The negroes are now very
indignant against him. A letter from him
to the negroes whom he had chosen as
"oficers" Of his government shows the
character of the organization for insurrec-
ton. Other letters of his now in posses
sion of the authorities will show Radical
plot to incite the negroes Of the South to
Instruction against the whites. Shorter's
published letter says:
81 drop you few lines about that great
man Jerry. Call all the men together
and take Jerry and that money from him,
and if he don't give it up kill him. Don't
let him get away from you. send these
men down to Perote, Bullock county, Ala,
to hunt for him. He has some amount OF
money about him, and has been going about
telling lies about me unbeknowiDg to me.
Also he had a full lie wrote again
me, and I want jeff. Mccall to
take him and kill him. want the men
to come down to Pine Level with George,
and bring your guns. Tell all the men to
90 and take him and kill him.
