A REIGN OF TERROR.
MEMPHIS, October IA special to the
appeal this morning IRON Friar's Point
says; General Chalmers continued the
pursuit Of the negroes under General
Pease (ColoredD on Tuesday evening tC
SChufordsVillC. Frank Scott white wai
ambushed and fatally wounded by ne.
groes near Surrounded Hill on Tuesday
a squad Of white cavalry under Captain
Burke subsequently charged upon the
negroes, who were in ambush, killing
three and wOunding one Of tho negroes,
who is doubtless dead, and captured three
others, Nelse Ieavitt, Ben njamin Jones
and Alex. Minis, who are now in jail,
Bill Henry and Jordan Thorpe were also
captured near the TuniCa county line
and put in Jail here, Chalmers command
Of $50 cavalry has not yet returned,
Forty or fifty Of his command remained
at CIarksdaIc last night to watch the ne.
groes in that section, there being several
places threatened. Chalmers, with the
remainder of his force, proceeded last
night to JOhnstown, fourteen miles north
OF this place, where the negroes under
General Bill Pease were reported to be
about 500 strong. Information was re-
Ceived here this morning that Chalmers
pickets were in sight Of their Outposts,
but no fight had occurred when the
courier left last evening. The negroes
are also reported In force at Major Al.
cOrns place, twelve miles north OF here,
and lighting is reported going on.
This report, however, Is not confirmed
There are about one hundred armed cit
liens hero who picket the town and will
remain under arms until the disturbance
ia ended and security to life and property
restored. The white people hardly know
what to do. Their homes in tho country
are unprotected, should the negroes offer
violence. There Is II fearful state Of
affairs in this county. The white men
are determined to disperse all mobs, but
are prudent and act on the defensive. The
whites, Democrats aud Republicans, are
n unit in opposing the negroes. A cay.
airy command leaves here this morning
for JOhnstown.
