Especial Dispatch to the Missouri Demoerat.l
MzMPHIs, November 29.-Bight compa-
MES OF the Twenty-ninth Infantry left for
Jefferson, Texas, on the steamer Ruth last
evening. I,. -
This mornings appeal publishes a state
ment which purports to be taken from the
Washington (Arkansas) Telegraph of the
eighteenth instant, which says: son the
tenth instant, a band of two or three hun
dred armed men entered the little town of
Centre Point, Sewer county, took possession
of the place, marched the citizens to an
open field, and then ransacked the
town, taking everything valuable,
and destroying what they could not
carry away, after which they were allowed
to return to their homes. The next day
citizens of the adjoining county came into
town-some of Them armed. meeting was
held and it was agreed that, in view of the
authority under which the raiders had pre-
tended TO be acting, TO appoint a committee
to visit Murfreesboro and Washington to
confer with Clayton and the military au-
thorities. While they were still in consultsa-
ton, the party again made their appearance
and commenced an indiscrimate onslaught,
shooting down numbers and making pris-
sOners of those who we're not fortunate
enough to escape, They afterward selected
three citizens from among the oldest and
most respected, led them out and murdered
them.
The report says that the party making the
attack were portion of the State militia,
uuder General Catterson. and concludes bv
saying that vengeance will have blood, and
that the blood of An outraged people will vet
fall upon and crush the miserable wretch who
thus prepares a banquet of pIunder and
slaughter for his murdernus minions. The
report is not credited, and is supposed to
have been gotten up to create disturbance
between the citizens aud the militia of Ar
kansas.

IE is NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE.
NO JURISDICTION ON A TAX CSAE

The case of Edward Thompson ct ais.
vs.. Alfred Moulton arises on claims for
damages alleged to have been sustained on.
goods shipped from New York by the
steamship r. R. Colyer, Of which defen-
dant was the agent. It appears from the
record that the defendant agreed that, in
case the owner of the vessel did uot liuui
date the claim that he would. This sult is
Instituted on that agreement, and the dam
ages alleged to be due are $4,000. The
case was tried by jury in the court below
and Judgment for the defendant. The
court does not view the agreement of
Moulton as binding him to liqnidate these
claims n his individual capacity. but only
as the agent of hrs principals, the owners OF
the steamship r. R CuyIer. II ia evident
that he transcribed bis authority as agent
in making it, but that OF itself does not
render him amenable. The claim for dam
ages should be rightly brought against the
owners of the ship, and not against the
agent The Judgment of the court below is
affirmed, with costs.
The case OF U. S. Benedict VS.. William
Francis involved the question whether the
Sheriff had the right to retain from the
proceeds of sale of property on a mortgage
a sum sufficient to discharge the back taxes
The court declined to give an opinion ON
the subject, for the reason that the case did
not come within the jurisdiction of the
court

About two o'clock on Monday, the thir-

The snag pierced hole in the steamer

overheard lot of cattle slowed on the.
starboard guard. As soon as the hull was
exposed to view it was closed and the water
pumped cut, and the steamer proceeded on

where the accident occurred. .les
Captain VIM. Smith, of the Red River
