became very indignant. Seeing policeman
near by he hailed him. On his coming up he
ordered him TO smash the barricade, which was
done. The Alderman after few words with

respect for the Alderman present, and, If bis

no respect whatever for the whole Council

Alderman Barrow asserted, in our presence,
that he had right to smash barricades erect

He may be right, bat We doubt it. However,
we hope that the owners OF the property will
test the matter.

A GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOB CoLoRHD YOUTHS.
For some months past number OF colored
men OF this city have been thinking about es-
the city. Some thought it best to petition
Council to allow these youths to attend the
Charleston High School; but the majority op-
posed any such snt on the ground that
it would only cause dissension, and be produc-
tive Of evil rather than good. It was finally
determined to organize board Of trustees,
who should take the matter in hand and vigo-
rously push it forward.
The board. composed Of the followed named
colored men: W. A. Grant, Benjamin A. Bose
man, Alonzo J. Rausier. W. q. Mishaw, Thos.
Aiken, Abraham Taylor, A. W. Jacobs, r. c.
DeLarge, Robert Brodie, Robert Gordon,
Moses Camplin, John Allen, William Gadsden,
and Peter Frost, has drswn up 8 petition to
be presented to Council at it's next meeting.
The petitioners request the Honorable Ooun-
Gil to give and to grant unto them and their
successors in Office, in tlust, q piece, parcel OF
lot OF ground out Of any lands now held OF
owned By the city. for the pur ooss Of erecting
thereon two buildings designed entirely for
educational purposes, and for the sole use and
benefit Of the colored people-to be governed
aud controlled by the same; and 1t is intended
and designed that the professors and teachers
shall, in all cases, be colored men. thoroughly
trained and educated"
We learn that the board has selected some
waste land near the .orper of IIine-street and
Rutledge Avenue. and will request Council to
allow them to use it for the purpose desig-
mated.

denouncing the statement OF Head Constable
Hubbard, that he had been "dishonorably dis
charged from the State constabulary force with

signed the position to which he had been ap-
pointed, in utter disgust at the dirty work he
was expected TO perform. and that bis written
dismissal was not sent to him until three days
after his resignation had been handed in, and
when he had actually quilted the constabulary.
He declares that Hubbard's motive in falsify-

Dyer County After the Horse Thieves.
Five of Them taken from Jail and
Shot
Dyersbufs in an UprOar.

We learn from friend who arrived yes
terday from Dyersburg, Dyer county, that
| the widest excitement was prevailing there
on Saturday, on account of the hanging OF
/ five men by a vigilance committee on the
night Of the 29th or morning of the Both.
The circumstances as near as we could
learn them were as follows: During the
week, FIVE men belonging to a regular band
of horse thieves were captured and lodged
! In Jail by the patrol. Three of them, two
/ brothers named Evans and one Moody,
were carried before a Magistrate and fully
committed. The other two, whose names
we have been unable to learn, were also ex-
amined and remanded.
The probability is that the law would
| have been suffered to take its course, but
| the two Evans, with unparalleled effrontery,
| threatened the Magistrate in Court, and all
| five of the prisoners boldly declared that if
they were punished they would wreak ven
geance against the whole community. These
/ threats of course, had the effecteof rousing
the feelings of the citizens against them, es-
l;acialIy those who participated in their ar
rest originally, as it was against them that
the prisoners directed their threats princi-
pally.
Nothing was done, however. and the pris-
oners were remanded to Jail for safe keep
ing. About midnight perhaps little after
"a body of men numbCr ring at least hun
dred, surrounded the jail, took the prison
ers out, and after giving them a lew minutes
for preparation shot them to dea th
The citizens engaged in this act were of
all shades Of politics, and were aL1ong the
best men in the county. The leading man,
indeed, IN the whole affair, was q tOrmer
radical member of the Legislature. They
were not disguised in the slightest, and
seemed to justify their conduct and glory
in it.
Since writing the above, we have received
private letter from friend in Dyersburg,
from which we make the following extracts
These men (those exeeuted) were sup
posed to be the leaders Of gang of horse
thieves who ranged through Dyer and the
adjoining counties, stealing stock indiscrim-
inately. They were connected, 1t is sup
posed, with q central organization whose
ramifcations reach from the Gulf to the St.
Lawrence, and which embraces in its ranks
men in every station of life. The Renos
were members of it, and the men who lately
robbed Col Gayvert, at jackson, Tennessee, |
and whose bodies were found swinging
from tree at Carroll station between |
Humboldt and Jackson.)
One of these very men who were shot |
was seen by a neighbor some weeks ago |
with an arm full Of new halters, which he |
was dividing out to a body of men as
sembled in his yard x 80 /
While we depreciate lawlessness, we can
not but think that the death of these despe- |
radoes is a benefit to the country Since /
the lynching of the two men at Carroll sta
tion, robberies have almost ceased IN that
region, and it is hoped this shooting will |
have like salutary effect-APpeak.

Carrying Concealed Weapons.

The Evansville Journal, in an article on
this subject, remarks that !" the habit has
become prevalent in all the States Previ-
ous to the war the Southern States seemed
to have monopoly of the vicious practice 4;
but since then it has spread all over the
country. The custom of carrying concealed
weapons-such as knives, pistols and slung
shots-naturally begets foolish idea of Ler-
sonal honor, which is always anticipating
and ready to take offense at trifes The
man or boy who arms himself in advance,
when he is in no personal danger whatever,
virtually says to himself, 1 am now pre-
pared to resent insults, and, consequently,
must be on the watch for them. He be
comes morbidly sensitive lest he fail to de-
tect a personal afront and often reseats
what he regards as such, when none is u
tended For these reasons, aside from the
absurdity of a man who expects to live in
peace with his neighbors loading himself
down with deadly weapons. it is urged that
the various State Legislatures ought to re-
wise the laws against carrying concealed
weapons, and so amend them as TO make
their rigid enforcement more practicable
and certain. Ii every man who arms him
self with weapons with which, without
warming, he may take human life, is severe
~ punished, but little time will elapse be-
fore the number of homieides Will be ma
terially diminished

The following account of another Arkan-
sas horror was telegraphed from Little Rock
a few days ago and published in the Louis
vile Courier Journal:
intelligence of frightful outrage, per
petrated near Pine Knob, in johnson county,
has just reached this city Invitations have
been out for several days to p wedding,
which was to take place on Friday night
last The parties were highly respectable,
the bride being young and beautiful girl,
niece of one Of the former Judges of the
Supreme Court of Arkansas. just after the
company had assembled, and before the
marriage ceremony was performed, com
pany of negro militia, commanded by a
white man, surrounded the place, and, put
ting out the lights, laid violent hands on the
ladies' The gentlemen present were for
tQnately not without arms, and, after a sharp
fight drove the marauders off sister Of
the bride was seriously and perhaps NOR
tally wounded Four of the militia were
shot in the melee. The affair created great
excitement, and the people turned out IN
pursuit The radicals say the object of the
negroes was not rapine. hut that they went
to arrest man. Gov. Clay ton continues to
declare that he will do nothins' saying that
the negroes may do as they please His OBJ
Ject seems to be to provoke disturba7 : ce, "a
