MURDERED.-It is with ,unfeign,
ed regret that we have to announce
the death of Robert r. Pennall,
DEPUTY Sheriff of this parish, at
the hands of q freedman called
Cash The circumstances at
tending the death are as follows.
Last Saturday, in an angry CONVEX.
sation between the parties, Cash
gave Pennal the lie, whereupon
the latter broke a, bottle of bitters
over his head. Cash bided his
time for revenge, and late in the
day waylaied him and shot him
in the back. Pennall fingered
until Monday night, when he died.
Notwithstanding every effort has
been made by the civil authorities
to capture him., Cash is still at
large.--tSouth Western, 10th inst.

EsCoBEDO's BLOODY LETTER.

EsooBEDo's BLOODY LETTER.
The Brownsville Ranchero pub, /
fishes the following extract rom
the bloody letter of Escobed b to
Gov. Gomez, of Neuva Icons
QUERETARo, June 10, 1867.
I have, by the execution of
these traitors, made terror the Or
der of the day. Everywhere, in
Mexico, I have imposed large
contributions on the rich and con-
fiscated their property and their
all. When I could not do it in
person, my delegates have strictly
complied with my orders, and I
hope, before closing my military
career, to see the blood of every
foreigner spilled that resides in
my country. 7-, ''@
The above brutal epistle sounds
decidedly home.like; and we are
surprised to find the name of Es-
cobedo attached thereto. 1t is
beyond doubt one of Sheridan's
"Valley Dispatches" that through
some careless mistake, has crept
into a bath of news from Mexico.
We are "too old a soldier" to be
fooled in such a manner. We
know the Barnburners dispatches
when we ssseen them. f
