governs the unrepresented part-viz., the
Southland to be made the pretext OF

of the bureaus and military occupation for
the protection of the lately enfranchiscd.
A story comes fresh and reeking from
Arkansas of horrid man-so horrid that
terms are not found in the language to
give out the full measure Of his atrocities
who, as the Tribune vigorously sums it up,
"bcat negro with club attempted to
"shoot another negro who demonstrated !;
"shot negro woman through the head,
and then had four OF the negroes who
presented the outrage arrested, and con-
summated his threat of killing some

certainly belongs to the "killing profess

favorable impression Of their exalted

ingenuity and talent in the manufacture
of horrible rebel cruelties, we do not for
a moment suppose that they have lost
sight of the common rule OF the common

the Radical party at this particular time !!

beaten, and two of them killed by the
populace of Carthagenia, in New Granada.
The two that We're killed were Messrs.

Ca, ex-Confederatcs. They were com.
mlssioned by President GUTIERREZ to 90 -

rles committed upon the steamer Rave
The two not killed, but severely wounded
were in charge of the American consul
The two wounded persons are THOMAS L.

olh instant nothing had been done no ar

wv ahslr. After the murder, the consul
pioceeced to bury the dead bodies, which
m me 'ouha stripped of everything valuable.
The dispatches and letters Of nrotect;on
