Vinanous and Covva raly Work OF the
Regulators-An Innocent Man Lynched
and Left for Dead.
The New Albany Ledger. Standard relates . vii.
lanous piece OF business In Brown county while
at Seymour on Wednesday last we learned from
4r. Eugene Cu!ley, Of Nashville, that one OF the
most daring and yet cruel and cowardy attempts
ct Nnching that ever occurred IN that part OF the
state happened In Brown county, near Nashville,
On last Monday night. quiet and tnOfenslve
man, by the name OF Pedro was taken from his
home without moments warning and beaten
WIN clubs and sticks until life was almost extinct.
and In TACT was lett by the cowardly run1ans as
dead. The regulators were masked, and appeared
at toe residence OF Pedro AZ the dead OF night;
and when asked what he had done to be taken
rom his family at that time and punished, was
answered that he had cruelty whipped and
enarge and stated that they had always lived IN
she utmost harmony and that at that time the
most friendly and dial feelings existed between
xnem. In spite OF the piteous and most eloquent
pleas OF the vile and the lamentations OF the hus
oanu he was seized, rope put about his neck, and
terribly mutiating and lacerating his nesh, until
he was so completely overcome With pain and fear
that he could give no alarm The cOwardy villains
left the scene under the cover OF darkness and
doubtless natter themselves that they Will not be
apprenended. The most intense eXcitement pre-
taken TO hunt down the internal helians who COM
mitted the outrageous deed. Judge James g Hes
ter, Of that circuit, has ordered investigation
and Will hold his court open, which would have
adjourned on Tuesday until the desperadOes can

Judge Hester will 90 all in his power to that the

1t Is Impossible TO invent policy, either domes

popular jealousy at such violation OF honored

crease the popular sense OF the danger Of a third

an ambitious President may plunge his
country into peril, such as war, in order
to create an apparent Necessity Tor continuing

THE CONEY ISLAND ROAD.

The roads leading to Coney Island yesterday
were crowded 10y fun-blooded and halfblooded
horses and horses OF most impoverished sanguine
fluid coursing suggishy through their veins. The
vehicles also partook OF a heterogeneous character,
IN when all styles OF people held the ribbons. The
charioteers were attired in every description OF
duster and hat. Among the celebrities who
greeted the island-bound people when they stopped
to water their horses-and OF course everybody
halted at some wayslde Inn or other-was Mort.

assured each horseman that his equine was the
Dexter OF the day. Everybody thus complmented

feeling good Will toward all men. AT the latter re-
sort the hotel Keepers expressed 1t as tler opinion

result which has, up 10 the present, appeared as
highly dubious, considering the advanced stage
