were stationed about two miles from town aud
brought them 10 as prisoners and dlsarmcd
thcm. One OF them, as they we're being put
into the Court House yard, tried to make his
escape, when he was fired upon and killed, and
in the melee which cnsucd another negro was
wounded, but not'tataliy. Later IN the even
ing large body OF negroes advanced from the
South aud attacked the town, driving in the
white skirmishers to the Court House where
the maiu body Of whites was stationed. A
charge was made by the whites and the negroes
were repused with the loss OF several Killed
and wounded Fighting was going when our
informants left, and they were fired upon as
they crossed over to Ship island.
MEMPHIS, August IA second dispatch
from Helena says Major Horn Chalmers,
of fernando, has just arrived here for the
purpose OF cbarterlug a boat to take men
to the assistance OF tue WlilcS III hustip.
He says a Courier from Mayor Woodsoo,
of Austin, reached fernando at daylight,
statiug that the town was surrounded by about
1000 negroes and asking for help. About
POO men from Heruaudo and vicinity will
be here at , o'clock aud in company with
the volunteers from this city will start at

fortunate cause of the trouble there, reached

was attacked 10 the streets of Austin by ne
gro, and drawing pistol, fired at the negro,

standing by, which exasperated the negroes
to such an extent that they collected a
mob and took Dr. Smith to the woods
to hang him, which they would have done
but for the entreaties of Mayor Woodson
and the Doctors wife. Since that time
Dr. Smith has been a voluntary inmate OF
the Jail to prevent being mobbed until last

him to Hcrnando; on learning which the ne,
groes collected in large numbers and notified
