The KukluX at Their WOrk...A OOlOred
Man Murdered,

The villains who are organizing under
the name of Kuklux, for the murder and
outrage of Union men, black and white, are
commencing their work About midnight
on Saturday night three rufians, probably
connected with the gang, shot down col
ored man named Green Newly, as he was
quietly walking to his home, near McGees
Station, on the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad, about two miles from this city
They hailed him, and he, fearing foul play,
started TO run, whereupon all three, it is
said fred upon HIM. Two bullets were
ladged in his back, and he fell TO the ground
and died in a very few minutes. When the
murderers saw their victim fall, they ran
off. and soon disappeared in the darkness,
The wife of the murdered negro went and
procured assistance and several persons
took charge of the body during the night
Coroner Cotton subsequently held an in
quest upon the body, but no one was able
to give any information as to the cause of
quarrel between the parties, or even state
that the was any quarrel at all.
We hear that great alarm exists among
the colored people at Somerville. The re
bels since the county election, say that
they have got things in their own hands,
and declare that they will drive out all the
Union citizens and force the colored people
into submission. For ten or twelve nights
the Kuklux have been out every night IfrTng
into the houses of the coIored people. They
tell the colored people, as in Middle Ten
nessee, that the spirits of the departed re-
bel soldiers have retained to earth, and are
demanding che rights which they failed to
obtain by the rebellion.
We hear also of these outlaws at their
hellish work in North Mississippi. Espe-
cially at Oak Grove, in Marshall county,
are they busy in all manner Of outrages
upon the helpless blacks This outlawry
should have the attention of the Govern
ment at once.-Memphis Post.

DLArH OF A HoRsE-THRF.-A hOrse-tbiei went
10 the premises of Mr.. John Smith, an old and we'll
TODD farmer who resides four miles north Of Knox
vile on the Tazewell road, and took from his stable
ono Of his best horses. When the fact became
knoRn, pursuit was made al once by some gentle
nsn-neighbors OF Mr.. Smith-who followed tho
thief 10 within two miles Of Tszewe, where he was
,vertaksn, when he attempted to escape, but was
srrosted by bullet sent by the unerrng aim Of one
OF the pursuing party the effect Of which fatal

Too many cases q this kind have passed unpunisa-

ions along The Tazewel rosd. Al short intervals,
ever since The close OF the war They have usually
suooesasd in making their escape with their booty,
,,, debated but Il we arc not mistaken this rather
tr,,i. but well-meried end OF one OF their number
will ,n,o sbem % operate more cautiously and less
frequently than bss besa their custom.

We have no doubt that there is regularly y,
ssnized band of horse-thieves, with ihe'f neau
quarters in Southwestern Virginia, and this Is on'
Of the clan.
We have not the names Of the pursuing party
but give them credit for their energetic and prcmp'
action in the PREMISE They deserve the thanks o.
