MORE KU-KLU1 ARRESTS.
Ten Citizens OF wilkinson County,

Ton Clti9e1ls OF Wllktnson County,
Georgia, Dragged from their Homes
by United States Soldiers.
from the Savannah Advertiser. October 23l
The evening train from Macon yesterday
brought ten respectable and peaceable clti:
zens Of Wilkinson County, under charge OF
United States deputy marshals, with q file OF
soldiers. The facts as we were able to gather
them are as follows: The men were arrested
under q warrant Issued by q United States
commissioner In Atlanta, on the affidavit of
some negroes, charging them with completely
in the murder OF q negro which occurred some
months ago. One Of the men, we are informed,
was arrested for being connected In some way
with the murder of a negro, which took place
about two years ago. This negro was killed by
some person or persons, and hls body thrown
into a ditch, where 1t was subsequently dis
covered An Investigation was held at the
time. and thea43@r thoroughly sifted, and
finally disposed of0oat least such was the sup
position until this new arrest was made. The
parties, whose names we publish below, assert
mat they do not know for what they have
been arrested and dragged from their homes,
but as there has been nothing Of a disorderly,
character In the county, except the murder OF
this negro, they can think of nothing else that
prompted their arrest. They state that. they
were quietly at their homes, not apprehend-
ing or expecting anything OF The KIND, when
the arrival OF tue Uultcu SGoI0o ooiohoAo onu
marshsls from Atlanta aroused them, or many
OF them, from their quiet elumbers, about
twelve and three O'Clock yesterday morning,
and notified them that they were wanted,
at the same time, informing them that they
were under arrest upon q. warrant Issued
by the authorities at Atlanta. Preparing
themselves as rapidly as possible, they re-
| sponded to the order, and we're brought to
thIs city, arriving as above stated, on the eve
ming train yesterday. Many of the gentlemen
brought their servants with them. Five Of
them are merchants In Irwinton, two are
school boys. two are farmers. and one q physl-
| clan. The following is the list W. @. D. Car

From the Macon Enterprise, October 2ll
From passengers, conductors and officers OF
the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, who ar
rived in the city last night, We learn that the
house Of Mr. surrency was yesterday the scene
Of greater II not more excitement than ever.
Curious people were arriving upon every train,
each one bent upon solving the mystery, and
all coming away more mystiaed than when
they went.
Mr.. A.. P. Surrency, the owner Of the house,
and his family, are represented to be thorough,
the great crowds flocklng to their formerly
peaceful home. They know nothing OF the In
comprehensive mystery farther than what has
already been told-that their household furnt
ture has been ruined, or is every day being
destroyed by an unseen power.
A HOG APPEARS ON THE FLOOR.
From Conductor b. r.. Sharpe, Of the Bruins
wick road, who came up this morning., we
learn that on yesterday, whilst six or eight
men and women were sitting In the front or
parlor room, q hog deliberately walked IN at
LQ0 QOOE ,3uu WtLuOut ouOuAu6 WV ph6uSSS
signs of trep,dation advanced to the centre OF
the room. Every one remained motionless-.
conversation ceased-al eyes were turned
upon the strange victor. The hog stood for q
moment, then made q short circle In the mid
die OF the floor, and alter doing 30 walked
Into an adjoining room. Every one followed
1t. whilst some were In the ROOM, some IN
the door, but all intently watching what 1t
would do, 1t. instantly vanished like q vapor
or an apparltion, leaving Its audience stupefed
with horror, with no one able to tell how It
ESCAPED. The windows were down and no
means whatever open for escape.
AN OLD sALT TAXES A STRANGE DRINK.
Among the numerous visitors yesterday was
an old eea captain by the name of Burns, who
has been around the world three or four times,
and who was determind to unraVel the mys-
terry If possible, or at least some portion Of. 1t.
Getting into the house he was told OF the
smoothing iron tricks, and selecting that as q
particular object to watch, he sat down before
It. He watched the iron for a long time with
out seeing 1t move, and getting dry he
longed for.a bottle Of whiskey which he knew
MIR. Surrency had In an adjoining room; no
sooner had he thought Of thls than the bottle
fell at his SIDE, he picked 1t up and helped
himself, set Ii down and continued to eye the
Iron; Il did not move, but the bottle LEFT as
mysteriously as It appeared.
