MEMPHIS, Oct. 6.-rhe following, to the
Associated Press, is just received: .a..-
FRIAR's POINT. Miss Oct S, VIA HELENA,
a. w., Oct. 6.-The Sheriff of Coahoma Co.
caused our town to be invaded, this moruiug,
by an armed mob Of negroes. We drove them
back. We are fully organized for defense, with
Senator corn and Gen Chaimersl 10 command

MEMPHIS, Oct. 6 - The Impression prevails
here that there will be DO blood shed at Friar' 5
Point, aud, wthstandiug the numerous tele-
grams for men and ar:us no steps have been
taken to forward either.
The Appeals reporter, now at Helena, tele-
graphs this a H. that the accounts from Friar' 5
Point, late last night, state that Senator AL
corn and Sheriff Brown were the cause of the
unprecedented trouble Monday. At couveu
ton 90 Saturday nlght AlcOrn denounced
Brown severely. Brown, ipIrepy, Sunday, used
severe language regarding Alcorn, and said be
wanted his friends 10 comc to town Monday
and he would expose AIcorn, who then threat.
encd to shoot Brown. The latter then sum-
moned a number of negroes who prepared to
come to his assistance. On Tuesday AEcorn
seut to Helena to General Tappau, of the State
militia, for arms aud men, but only few men
went down. as the people here have 90 sympa-
thy in the fuss, which they consider personal
grievance between Acoru and Brown, growing
out Of Amos antagouiSm to Alcorn.
The latest advces state that Alcorn has 10
cavalry and 40 Infantry with which he had
driven off Brown and 200 armed negroes, who
retreated three mics from town. where they
made stand. No fighting had yet occurred,
and no body Of men had left or will 20 from
Helena. This is regarded as the real nature
of the difficulty, which is purely personal aud
political between Acoru aud Brown and Ames.
The steamer Maud, just arrived up, reports
no fighting at Friars Point, aud affairs remain
as they scre yesterday aud last night.
lu order 10 arrve at an understanding Of the
state Of affairs there, as shown in foregoing
special, it may be stated that iu the county OF
Coahoma the negroes have a maj >rity of five
to one against the whiteS;that suceithe split in
