THE Union TROUBLES.

On Sunday, Jan. l, Mr.. MAT. STE
VEINS was dragged from his wagon
few miles from Uuion Court House,
and murdered in cold blood BY band
Of armed negro militia. The attempt to
arrest some Of item was resisted with
arms, and one or more of the militia
outlaws were killed.
Some Of the arms held by the colOred
militia were taken from them, ard it
appears, as We learn from the COLUMBIA
fhenie, that on Sunday, Jan. 1, Capt..
ALEcK WALKER, the colored captain
o; the militia, applied to the parties who
had charge of the guns belonging to
the militia, but his demand was refused,
and he was subsequently arrested
charged With the killing Of Dir. NAT
STEVENS. Fifteen Of his militia were
also arrested. On Wednesday evening,
a party Of unknown horsemen went to
the Sheriff and peremptorily demanded
the keys of be Jail they we've given
up, and they proceeded to the Jail and
took charge Of Eve Of the prisoners
Captain A. WALKER, CHARNER HEsN-
DON, JOE VAN LEW, ANDY THOMPSON
and SyLvASUs WRIGHT The next
morning, the bodies Of WALKER and
IIERNDoN we're discovered in the road /;
and it was afterwards fosud out that
THOMPSON and WRIGHT were badly
wounded.
We are further Informed that Mr.,
Smith, (the acting deputy,) who was
wo1n cd on Sunday last, died on
Thursday night.
4 number Of the good citizens Of
Union have visited Colsmbia, asking
protection from the stato authorities
from this shocking state Ofafairs. Tie
Governor, We learn, has been absent,
and what will be aene remains to be

TERRIBLE CRIME.--MURDEEe OF
NIB, A. r. RURARA.@---------
The Columbia PAoni1 OF Saturday
last brought MS the shocking inielli-
gcuce of the murder of Mr~A.-F. d.,
BARD, on the public highway, about si1
miles above Columbia. It seems that
Mr.. DuBARD left Columbia, for his
home about fifteen. miles above that
ciry, on Thursday afternoon iiss. About
Elk miles from the city his body was
found, pierced through, With several
slugs. He Sas robbed Of his money
aud watch, but the bundles in his buggy
were left. 1t is supposed that he was
instantly killed. His coat was burnt
with powder, proving that the murderer
stood very close when the fatal shot was
fred. Mr.. DUBARD was advanced in
years, and one Of the most respectable,
highly esteemed aud useful citizens Of
Richland County. For many years a
leading member Of the Methodist
Church, and one CT its strongest pillars
at the time Of his death. A man Of
unimpeachable character-quiet aud nm
ostentasiess, but firm, intelligent and
reliable in all things. . man of deep
an earnest piesy, and of large hearted
charities man against whom there
could not have existed animosity to
prompt such an awful deed, for he was
kind aud generous and just to all.
The Phonir says: "But as q pious
I" God fearing old man, it is to be pre-
" "sumed hat he was not unprepared for
"the quick summons that came to him.
a His violent and sudden death will ex'
+" cite general and genuine sympathy
The assassin is not yet known ; but it
Z" is to be hoped that the officers of the

"the offender the responsibility OF his
" atrocioas crime. The marks Of fat
