stances Of the recent massacres in
that vicinity. He reports that on the
10th inst, about Z clock, about ei9h,
miIes above Monroe, Primus Johnson,
4 colored preacher, was shot and in
stan,Iy killed, and Eaton Longwood,
also co!ored, received . dangerous
wound, the shooting being done by
two disguised white men. johnson
was sho, while holding his infant in
his arms. Longwood WAS loading
zeotton in his wagon, and AS the white
men ndyanced and rested their. guns

Tins, he attempted TO escape, but re-
celved charge of buckshot. John.

States nrarshal, aud attorney at law,
also refused to go in compliance with
. request of Long~ ood.
In the afternoon, the commanding Of
fcer,by advice OF the district attorney,
sent detachment of eigh, men with
the dlstric. attorney, to obtain Long
woods dying statement. They found
large crowd OF terror-stricken ne
grocs at the house, in constant Appre-
hension that the wtites would return
aud carry out their threat. Long.
wood made what he pronounced to
be his dying statement. which was
duly sworn to. The abovc facts are
taken from this statement and from
the testimony Of the wives Of these
two men, both OF whom Witnessed
the shooting. A guard of four men
was left at the house. 1t is now
thought possible that Longwood may
recover. From the size, walk, and
genersi appearance, Longwood thinks
the man who shot him is Robert Lo-
gan, white man and plantation own
er, living at Bayou de Siard, and one
Of his neighbors. He also says VIM.
F. keldholdas, a white planter, who
is his neighbor and : captain Of = dem
ooratic rife company, has repeatedly
threatened his life, and the witnesses
specify the same thing. Nobody
could give an opinion as to the in
4 f,~l
Longwood and Johnson were reso-
Lutte and intelligent. Each owned a
small farm, and were making good
crops. By joint efforts they had
erected "A school house for colored
children near their house, which WAS
set on fire and nearly destoyed a
short time ago. Longwood was .
strong influential republican, aud es-
pecialty obnoxious to resident dem
| ocrats.
The report concludes as follows:
In my opinion, no earnest efforts
will be made by the civil authorities
10 investigate the matter aud appre-
hcnd the murdcrers. The Judge oil

Of the essence Of the contract, and =
failure to pay involves an absolute
forfeiture which cannot be relieved
against in equity.
If the failure to pay the annual
premium be caused by tho interven-
tion Of war bctween the territories in
which the insurance companies aud
assured respectively reside, which
make it unlawful for them to hold in.
terconrse, the policy is nevertheless
forfeited if the company insis, on the
condition, but in such case the as.
sured is entitled to an equitable value
OF the policy arising from the pre-.
miums actually paid. This equitable
value is the difference between the
cost Of new policy and the presen,
