The Fate of Three Kentucky Des-
neradaeA

The Fate OF Tnree Aentueky pes
4 peradOes.
From the Greenville tKy.) Gazette.
In earlier days the Green river coun-
try, when but sparsely settled, was in
tested by three outlaws, who, for devil
ish, blood.thirsty cruelty, were never ex-
celled by any human beings that ever
/ existed since the creation of the world.
Murder, rapine and plumber were their
whole occupation, and constituted the
whole source of pleasure and delight
for them. They we're known by the
names of Big Harp Little Harp and
Mason-the two first being brothers. 1t
is said that their headquarters for booty
was at, or in the vicinity Of Cave-in-
Rock, on the Ohio river, from whence
/ they made their sallies upon hatboatmen
as they passed down the Ohio with their
| loads of produce. Their motto was dead
men tell no tales" and to-day many an
unlucky boatman sleeps beneath the
placid waters of the Ohio, the unfortu-
nate subject Of these mems bloodthirsty
cruelty. After many years Of death and
robbery of boatmen, they extended their
depredations into the interior, and COM
mitted several murders in the county of
Henderson, when they were pursued by
party of citizens to this county, and
Big Harp was killed on hill near the
residence of Bayless Oates The hill is
still known by the name Of Harp's hill.
The pursuers cut Harps head off and
carried it to the county of Union, at the
forks Of a road where it was stuck up on
pole. The. county road travelled by
the party is now known as Harp's Head
road. Alter the death of Big Harp,
Little Harp and Mason fed to the State
of Louisiana, where they pursued their
deyilish system of numbering all they
came in contact with, without regard to
age, sex or color for many years, and un-
til their names had become terror to the
citizens Of the whole lower Mississippi
Valley. The Governor OF the State
having issued proclamation Of out
lawry against Harp and Mason, and also
offering large reward for satisfactory
death Of one or both, copy OF which
fell into the hands of Harp, who, thirst
| ing for gain, at once killed Mason, cut
of his head, and after Disgusting HIM
self, with his bloody evidence OF death
proceeded directly to New Orleans for
the purpose Of claiming the reward,
where he was recognized by party OF
hatboatmen and captured, and soon
after met his death at the hands Of the
law. The accomplices in crime Of these
murderers were either captured and
hung or killed, except two, who years
afterward met their death at the hands
of Yicksburg vigilance committee.

Why Endure What is Curablel-" What

tinue dyspeptics to the end Of their days If they
choose. but a. It is not supposed that any ra-
tiOnal being prefers physical torment to ease
and health. the probability Is thatifall suffer-
err from indigestion were convinced that an
absolute, infallible remedy for their complaint
existed. they would with one accord resort to
it. We most cmphatically declare that such a
remedy does exist. and that IL name is Hos

success extends over a period Of more than
twenty years. and il is fearlessly alleged that
during the whole Of that time Il has never
failed to afford permanent relief in any disor-

testimonials that 90 10 establish this important

HERE is the way the Quitman (Ga.)

chasm" to shake hands with the Greeley
Democracy.
THE atrocities Of the soldiery are still
too fresh in oar memory; the scars on onr
heart are not yet erased; the names OF
Chichamauga and Elmira still sutfuse
the eyes with tears, and the heart with
terrible thoughts of vengeance. All! 1t
is too soon to make light Of the four
years struggle for liberty. Widows have
not ceased TO lament the loss of husbands; I;
m ,thels still cherish the memory of de-
parted son brothers and sisters still re-
member ido!ized fathers and brothers.
The reminders OF wars terrible havoc are
still vi,ible-tho grim landmarks Of a
vandal host are not erased-the blackened
ruins made by incendiary and hireling
armies are altogether too fresh in the
minds of Southern men-to expect from
them even political endorsement Of all
the atrocious acts Of a vandal host.
When we so debase our manhood-when
we SO outrage all the nobler feelings Of
humanity--as to stand over the graves Of
our Confederate dead, and IN the Ian
