THE RoCHEREAU BURGLARY CAsE-No
Verdict -Yct.-This case was given to the
jury late last evening, after the attorneys
had argued at considerable length. The
courtroom was crowded all day by IN anx-
ious throng, who patiently waited during
the proceedings. The audience did not re
tire when the jury did, evidently expecting
a verdict in . short time. The jury had
not been out long before they r~eturned, in
quiring if they could return o verdict find
ing that some were guilty with a recon-
mendation Of mercy. OF course the court
instructed them that such a verdict might
be rendered, when they returned to their
room, and afterward sent word that they
would not be able to arrive at an agree
ment. when the court adjourned until to
morrow morning.

stefan, we, the jurors, find that deceased
came to death from scalding and inbala-

We further find that from all Indications
there was q scarcity of water in the boilers
at the time Of the explosion. caused by the
negligence or ignorance of the superintend-
emit and engineer. In the opinion OF the
jury such al explosion could not have taken
the flues, from the fact hat they car
ried se~yenty-iye or eighty pounds of
steam. We would also censure the pro
prietors of said sawmill for employing in
competent men to take charge vt their

Ku Kiux Accounts Of the Murder Of Ten Me-
Grocs I'm Union County.
CHARLESTON, Feb. 10, 1871.
am in receipt Of the following particulars of the
Ku Klux outrage in Union county. Phe details OF
the murder of Stevens, the WAGNER, by the negro
militia has already been published In the HERALD.
The report says:-Nearly two months ago Stevens
was murdered on the public highway by a squad OF
the negro militia, because he refused to give them
barrel Of whiskey he had in his wagon. The
arms and accoutrements OF some OF the. militia
were found few days afterward near his
murdered body, In the woods. large number Of
the militia were soon aiterward arrested upon
positive circumstances OF guilt, and lodged in Jail
for trial by the courts OF the county. As long as
their trial was expected to occur in Union county
there was apprehension felt OF their escape from
justice; but when Judge Thomas, OF the state Su-
peror Court In whose circuit Union Is, ordered the
prisoners to pe brought before him on writ OF
haDeas corpus without his circuit at Columbia, the
Ku Klux took the law into their own hands. On
Sunday night last body Of masked men,
numbering 600. came 70 the jail az
the alleged murderers and two Others, arrested
and confined for barn-burning. They marched
them considerable distance out or town and shot
SIX, killing them Instantly, and hanged two, all OF
whose bodies have been found. The two prisoners
confined on the charge Of arson have not yet been
discovered, but Is generally understood that they
have been similarly deat with as were the others.
The reason assigned for this lawless outrage Is
that Judge Thomas intended to bau the murderers
and thus AFFORD them chance to cheat the gall0ws
AL has been quiet at the scene OF the outrage
nor It expected that any fresh outbreak will occur
Governor Scott refuses to send the negro militia
