to play a Joke on him by stealing his
shirt, and proceeded to strip him. Un-
deneath his shirt, and suspended By
string around his neck, was a small can

found II to contain his commission as
Brevet Major General, two congratulator Y
letters, one from Grant and one from
President Lincoln, a photograph of a
little girl and curl of hair-a "chestnut
shadow" that doubtless one day erepi

When these things were discovered

A TERRIBLE RIOT IN LOUISIANA.

TERRIBLE RIOT IN LOUISIANA.
The miserable state of affairs in Louis
lana has Just resulted In horrible riot,
attended with great bloodshed IN the
town Of ColfaX, 10 Grant parish, in that
State.
The kilograms to the morning papers
are quite confusing, but II appears that
Two sets Of officials have been appointed
for the parish by the conflicting State
Governments, and that the second set
had ousted the first.
Those who were turned out began
gathering their friends 10 retake the
offices, when they were ordered to leave
too. The officials Ia possession then got
together band Of negroes, reported to
be several hundred strong, To defend their
position, v hilst the others went TO Alex.
and'ia and mustered their forces there
with the intention OF marching.to Colfax
the county seat, and taking the town.
The negroes had strongly entrenched
themselves in the Court House, and built
breastworks three or four feet high
There were, 1t Is said, about 400 men
armed aud equipped thoroughly.
On Sunday about noon, some $50 meI
who bad gathered from the surrounding
/ parishes, made an attack on the breast
works, aud brisk fight was kept up til
about three p. m, when the works were
sIormed and captured, the negroes taking
efuge in the Court House, the doors o.
which were barricadsd. After some fur
Their fighting, the negroes threw out {
flag OF tiuce, and several attachments o.
men advanced on il, when they were freC

is feared fatally wounded. The white
retreated outside Of the breaslworks, an,
as tue only mtans Of disludging the ne
groes, the Court House was set on fire
aud the blacks were shot as they cam
from the burning tuilding. 1t is reported
that nearly 100 negroes we're killed, anS
there were none TO be found for mile
around.
