comm itted to prohibition and reform by IL

Murdered and Robbed.

On Wednesday last an old man. whose
name We are unable to learn, was going
down Bayou Macon with tatboat loaded
with goods. having on board his family and
brother-in law. Ga the night Of their ar
rival at Warsaw, in Franklin parish, the
boat was boarded by three masked men,
who shot the old man On sight. killing him
instantly. and then OverpOwered the re-
maipder Of the crew and robbed the BOAT of
$500 in money, but took nothing else. The
next day at the burial of the old man the
brOther,in-law of tie deceased recognized
one Tom Norris his brother, and another
man whose name is not known. as the
murderers Of the hatboatman. The
three young men became uneasy and left
the burial ground in hot haste, but pursuit
was given and two of them overtaken. One
of the Norris brothers took to the woods
on foot and was soon surrounded and cap
tured. Tom Norris made his way to Delhi,
where he stopped, snpposing himself safe,
but was surprised by squad ct pursuers
who captured him with little difficulty, and
found on his person $3.50 of the money
stolen. The other robber was still at large
at last accounts. The two Norris brothers,
the parties arrested, are young men who
have been raised IN the vicinity of Warsaw,
have heretofore borne good characters and
have moved in good society. When arrested
they appeared to be perfectly indifferent
about the matter, and manifested no more
concern or uneasiness than if they had done
heroic deed rather than heinous crime

This St. Louis Democrat Of the seventh.
contains the following:
NEW ORLEANS, April g, 1874
To the Editor of the Democrat:
In your editorial of the twenty fifth in
stant, l observe you are reduced for true
arguments to aid Captain Eads in making
sensational false statements. lou state
''there is a ring of spectators in New Or
leans Chamber Of Commerce, composed of
Hebert, Forshey, Oglesby. Howell, Copes
and Highly, who have bought up all the
land near Fort st. Philip, and laid out
a city, on which to bnild elevators,
ware houses, etc, to the detriment OF
New Orleans" Now, this is about as
near correct as all your articles for
Captain Eads. l will here state that
neither of the above parties own one single
foot of land about Fort St. Philip, or with
in fifty miles of it, And, furthermore,
neither OF us would give two cents an acre
for any lands there is about Fort St Philip
Captain Eads writes US we can make more
money in and around New Orleans. which
was nothing new to Us. Do not degrade
me any more by saying l am specnlatlng IN
swamp lands, which are only valuable to
those who want to raise alligators and mos
quitoes. You also state ia the same article
that Captain Eads' latest letter, by agree
ment, was to be published, but, like other
statements OF facts not pleasing to the ring,
was suppressed The above rs no nearer
the truth than the land speculation. For
the edification of your readers will you
publish my answer. L. j. HIGBI.

How she Committee Stands.

The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Tribune of the sixth, says:
The House Committee On Railways and
Canals to-day considered the two systems
proposed of improving the mouth OF the
Mississippi river. One system, as is well
known, proposes to reach the waters OF the
Gulf by a ship canal six miles long at Fort
st. Philip; and the other proposes by an
arrangement of ietties to increase the cur
rent at the mouths Of the river, and thus
forcing the debris into the open wa
ters of the Gulf. Nine members of the
committee were present, and after the sub
ject was briefly discussed, for the purpose
Of taking the opinions of the members, a
vote was had. Each proposition had three
votes, and three members abstained from
voting on the ground that they were not
sufficiently informed, and they would not
vote for the improvement in any shape
until they knew what it would cost. These
gentlemen were Messrs. Bass, Sherwood,
and J. Amber Smith. The committee laid
the question aside for one week, during
which time additional reports and informa'
tion will be examined by the members.
