The circumstances which had brought

half dozen other young gentlemen oI

part of the world which their genius
should call them to. But plans and

From the Sumter News.l
We learn that on Wednesday night Of last
week, q respectable and norenslve citizen Of this
county, named Benton, was taken out from his
house By gang OF negroes and whipped until he
could scarcely stand. Their preteXt was to force
him to tell something about the ku.Riux. Know
ing nothing, he could tell nothing about them. 1t
is said that the gang were insttgated by white
men. II go, we hope the instlgators Will meet
with the speedy and summary punishment which
they 80 well deserve 1t il high time that such as
incte an ignorant, savage, thoughtess and cruel
mob to acts OF that kind, while they themselves
remain behind IN Il place o. safety, should be made
an example Of.
P. S.-S!nce the above was written, we have
learned further particulars. The affair occurred
In Lower Salem. A negro in the night, broke
into house occupied by Two white girls and en-
tered the CHAMBER in which they slept. Fortu-
nately they escaped the villain and ned. he was
identified, however, aud, as It ts reported hls
place OF abode visited by parties unknown, 10
search of him. But he had concealed himself
somewhere else. Thereupon Nj. Benton, who
lived In that neighborhood, was visited and horr-
bly, treated by The gang OF negroes, as we nave
stated above. 1t Is said that the negroes were
undisgulsed, but were led by white man In dis
guise, who was recognized. II this be 30, ne
ought in our opinion to receive the same punish.
ment as the lelons who attempted TO commit the
rape. There Is very great excitement, OF course,

purpose OF giving ball for friend who had been
arrested.
On appearing, was discharged by the United
States commissioner, upon the evidence OF the
prosecution alone, the district attorney having
stated that 1t was never designed that should
be arraIgned upon that affidavit, 1t having been
taken for some other purpose. The manager,
whom 1t was alleged endeavored to corrupt,
swore positively that never attempted, in any
manner whatever "by words or signs," to in
duce him to tamper with the ballot-box, and de-
MED that he had ever told Quinn 30. This man
Quinn viii be required, at the next session Of
court, to answer for this shameless perjury. This
whole proceeding, like others OF the same kind,
was impelled by the malice Of those who are seek
ing to gain their base ends by depressing citizens
under the forms of law. E. W. NJ MAcKEY.
