PHILADELPHIA,
Horrible Outrage on a Young
Girl.
Attempt 70 Burn her Alive.


PHILADELPHIA,Au Aug. IA well- known
wealthy married mau, named John L..
Hates. was before a magistrate to-day,
charged with fiendish assault on MISS
Pemberton. 1t appears that Kates seduced
her when she was about fifteen years old,
and she claims thai he has held her in semi
slavery ever since. Recently she attended
a picnic without his permission, and when
She returned he charged her with inidelity,
knocked her down, beat her in a brutal
manner, and then tore all the clothes on
her person, and after pouring burning huld
over her, set fire to her aud endeavored to
burn her alive. The interference OF some
ofthe people in the house prevented the
consummation of his design. On Friday
evening last he whipped her in a brutal
manner. and swore that he would dishSure
L er so that she would never he able TO 60
out. Great efforts were made by interest
ed parties to keep the details Of the affair
from the public. Ka-es was held IN S2,zOO
bail for appearance at court.

Vile Pieketed Against a Negro Raid
Yicksburg Herald, Aug. Is.
From a passenger on the steamer City Of
Vicksburg, which arrived yesterday, We
Learn some particulars Of a bloody aliTay
that occurred in Greenville, Washington
county, last Thursday, in which those
negro outlaws, J. Allen Ross, and Gov.
Ames' Brigadier General Of Militia, Par
son Gray, were participants.
1t seems that some two mouths since
Crav proposed to purchase from Messrs.
Brill x Bros, dealers in gentlemen's fur
pishing goods, a suit Of clothes on credit.
Not IiEing the investment, Messrs. B. "
Bros. declined the negotiation. Gray re-
garded this refusal to sell him goods on a
credit as a gross insult, and last Thursday
he went into the store and commenced
abusing one of the firm for that refusal.
Being ordered to leave the premises, be re-
tired with the remark that he would re-
| turn and six him." Gray at once crossed
the street to where j. Allen Ross was
| standing, and after few hurried words OF
| consultation they both proceeded u the
| store of Brill & Bros. Entering the store
| first. Ross said to Mr.. Brill, "YOu have in
/ suited my friend Mr.. Gray, and have
| come to settle it, and at once drawing q
revolver, commenced firing at Dir. Brill
Tie fire was promptly returned, and koss
was wounded in the face, head and neck
| When our informant left Greenville 1t wa
/ not known how severely Ross was wound
ed. or whether his injuries were likely Z
nr6ve mortal. Grav, Ames' redOubtabl'
| Rrioadier General, fled at the first fire, lik'
the cowardly hound he is, and made III
wsy to the country, where it is said he va
endeayoTing TO have the negroes arm ant
march on GTeenyille 70 a7enge the shoot
ing of Ross.
TIE white citizens of GRenville pick
eted the roads Thursday night, and on Fri
day everything was quiet up to 9 o'elocl

Of melting the negroes TO violence. Kos

Permit me through your columns to in

Yesterday seCol. Upshaw," chief engineer,
with his corps OF subOrdinates, proceeded
to measure and mark the grounds for the
depot at this place, and this morning
moved out in the direction Of Pulaski, sur
veying and locating the road as they went.
Lawrence county has over $4,000 Of
stock taken for the grading, bridging and
cross-tying the first seven miles to the Giles
countv line. Our people are in dead earn
est at last, and the building Of the road is
now reduced 10 a moral certainty.
The understanding is, that the road from
I.awreDcebUrg TO Pulaski, will be under
contract by the first of September, when the
work will begin in good earnest Day
seems 70 be breaking upon old Lawrence.
Her star Of prosperity is glimmering in the
Eastern horizon, and all feel inclined TO
raise a shout Of Joy at the prospect Of soon
being connected with the enlightened
world by a narrow gauge railroad.
Much credit is due to
THE GERMAN POPULATION
of our county, and especially to our enter
nrisinc tCwnsman, ''Alr. Jacob Joungblat,"
for the assistance they have rendered, and
the peculiar interest they have manifested
in this important enterprise. The farmers
throughout the county are greatly encour-
aged with the certainty Of being able to
harvest
A FULL CROP
Of field and garden products this year.
Failure in anything IS unkuO|u 70 our
people. The yield of wheat, cas- and
grasses, of every species, las been Tar above
an average, all Of which have been saved
without material damage by the abundant
showers, or other wise. Corn, which is now
beyond all danger Of d outh, is just as good
as can be, and will Be very cheap-say p
cents per busbeI, at gathering time. There
is still a large amount OF
OLD CORN
IN some parts of our county, which cannot
be sold for 70 cents per bUshel; in fact there
is no demand for it. Wheat is dull at 81
per bushel, and the best -four will only
bring three cents cash.
HOGS are rather scarce in parts OF the
county, but beef cattle are quite plentiful.
The health of the county is generally good.
