Il the Education of Young Ladies in the
South, having been founded in 1884.

A dispatch from Savannah states that
there has been further trouble on Cheever,s
plantation, in South Carolina. The negroes
refuse to vacate the lands or to make con-
tracts to work them. A collision occurred be-
tween the negroes and the troops of the
Freedmen Bureau. Lieut.. Lemon was shot
in the arm, and in returning the fire of the
negroes killed a negro. 1t is reported that
the negroes have Capt. Brandt, of the force,
prisoner. Col. Sibley, with seventy men,
has gone to the rescue.

Singular Outrage i'm Cincinnati
A Woman Enticed From Home
and Badly Beaten.

just now there seems to be kind OF pas
sion to commit unusual and before unheard
of outrages. The quantity of crime is not
probably on the increase, but there seems
to be much ingenuity displayed in varying
the manner of committing it. The follow
ing is case in point:
At the early hour of two o'clock on Mon
day morning, strange man appeared at
the door of Mrs. -, a midwife, living not
far from the corner of Observatory road
and Baum street, stating that her services
were needed at place on Mt. Adams, and
that he had been sent to bring her to that
place. As Mrs. - is regularly employed
in that profession, of course she was soon
dressed and ready to start to the place indi-
cated-her husband accompanying her at
the same time.
The trio ascended the hill, and finally
reached a place on which there were no
houses when two other men appeared, and
ordered the husband away. Of course he
was not willing to allow his wife to remain
with the three villains unprotected; and he
resisted, when he was knocked senseless :;
whereupon the three men commenced a
course of abuse almost unparalleled toward
the woman, who screamed loudly, despite
the efforts of the villains to keep her quiet,
and thus attracted the attention of some
butchers who were on their way to Deer
creek slaughter house, and they ran to the
spot and drove the seoundrels away.
Mrs. - then returned to her home, and
laid the matter before the authorities, but
as yet her assailants are unknows.-Gazette.

Wilkes Booth Again = Another
Man Sure that he is Alive.

Man Sure that he is Alive.
1 have no doubt the faces of some per-
sons will wear an incredulous smile when
boldly and fearlessly proclaim through
your columns: Brother Americans, you
have been deceived! J. Wilkes Booth is
alive!
L 1t would be folly to recall, in detail, the
tragic events of the night of April IA, 1865.
They are too indelibly stamped on the
memory of every American citizen. Suf-
fee it to say, the President was assassinat-
ed, and j. Wilkes Booth denounced, by
common consent, as the assassin.
| That be made his escape from Washing
ton, none will deny; that it was his lifeless
| body that was brought back to WASH
ington, and so mysteriously disposed
tof-many have doubted, and but few in
divjduals believe, who saw the strange con-
duct of the officers in charge; that it was
not Booths BODY, but the mangled corpse
of q person resembling Booth, who had
been brutally murdered and substituted in
Booths stead, can now be proven beyond
dispute; that General L. G. Baker knew it
was not Booths body, can be shown-that
he claimed the reward offered for Booths
capture, and the one hundred tho usand
dollars were paid out of the United States
Treasury, are well-known facts.
There are three men in the United States
who have seen J. Wilkes Booth since what
purported to be his mortal remains was
dragged by those inturiated bloodhounds
into Washington.
He was recognized, through his Disguise.
on the 9th of April, 1865, on board of a
vessel which carried him far beyond the
reach of his supposed avengers; again he
was seen by gentleman in the month of
September. 1865; and there is young
man in this city to-day who saw him
conversed with him. The names of
| these individuals, duly signed to their re-
spective affidavits, might possibly be OBJ
tained upon application to ex-Judge Ad-
yocate Holt, or the notorious L.iC. Baker,
Chief National Detective Police, as it is
tion TO their friends, or in public, a matter

This is certainly one of the most aston
