Terrible Crime and Prompt

Tho four eolored miIitiamen
connected with the force stationed
at Marion. Crittcuden County,
Arkansas, who perpetrated rape
upon several women living in the
vicinity Of the camp, were ar
rgigned before a court martial, on
the 18th inst. and shot the follow
ing day, between 4 and 5 o'clock
in the afternoon. All pleaded
guilty, except one. The intcrten.
ing hours between their conviction
and execution were of dreadful
agony and wailings, mingled with
cries 10 the officers to abate their
punishment. and prayers for par
don and mercy. Their piteeus
cries were heard throughout the
neigbborhood. The prisoners were
led out from the barricade short
distance, where their cofins were
laid side by side, few feet apart,
and each tied 10 stake driven III
the ground. Forty men, all color
ed, we're detailed TO shoot the Grim
inals. At the command of the off.
Ger, the front rank fired. killing
each of then instantly. The affair
was witnessed by the entire militia
force. Two of those shot were nm.

names Of the women who we're out

Mrs James Watson, Mrs. Cal

The next census is to be taken
in 1870, and as that is only a year
of, it will, it is thought, be, iDcum
bent on the present Congress to
make an appropriation and enact
such preliminary laws as may be
necessary in the premises. Then
comes the new apportionment Of
Representatives, which will be
governed by tho Constitutional
Amendment counting negroes out
unless they are voters. With two
States at least-Maryland and
Kentucky-this will make an i'm
portant change.

Total. Total.

About 8 O'Clock both clubs met At No. l43
Gravier street, where splendid collation. had
been spread for the entertainment of the Dramatic
Base Bali Club by their hosts, the LOoe Stars, a.
pbich the reporter Of the CRESCENT assisted. The
entertainment vss cne OF the few Thoia-soaled
gatherings which have taken place iD this city. The
suf etiquette which too often characterizes such
occasions had been entirely dispensed with, and
the festivities we're enjoyed with glsto that we
have seldom witnessed, and without the least
breach Of decorum.
We will rot attempt to relate all the good
thirgs said during Il is pleasant affair. We must,
however, chronicle the reciprocal tossts drunk to
the respective associations, responded 90 with
spiri, ard happy remarks nv Mr.. John Paine on
the pant OF the Dc9m2tics aud Mr. ". cracy on the
part Of the Lone Stars. Alter this Capt. Frank
HcEvoy enlivened the occasion By singing Il
couple of songs in excellent manner, and was
followed by Mr.. McNey, who related the expert
encs of a Frencbmsn in Mobile, which was ex-
tremely ludcrOus end served not lItsle 70 add to
the gaie;y Of the gathering. The press was com.
plimented with several tossts which were re-
spondsd 10 by Messrs. Armstrong sud Dinitry OF
the Tines, the latter OF whom was 10 excellent
vein sr5 delivered short speech, in which vas
embodied all that the circumstance could pO5sib =
suggest.
Mr.. Young, of the Republican, and q represen-
tative of the CRESCENT also came in for share in
the expression Of the feelings of the press ct the
visit of our Mobile friends. The gallant ffenen
of New Orleans were not forgotten, aud their
health drunk with hearty cheers. Among those
present whose nsmes we recall, representing the
Southern, Lee, Comet, Atlantic and Magnolia base
bail clubs, were hessrs. Huyghe. J. CorpreV,
Nike Lardner, Dan Owens, whose pleasant com
psDy we enjoyed Tor less time than we might
have desired.
We cannot forget, before closing this imperfect
account of great holiday in New Orleans, to
mention that the memory OF Charley Pearce, one
of the noblest souls that ever breathed soldier
and 6evoiee OF base bail, was drank standing; and
in silence. This sad recollection wss the only
dsmger upon the festivities.

Of gas sent the night watchmsu hunting for the
