Neutrality-suspicious. to Lynch a Sur
posed Assassin.

Retribution-Attemp to Lynch Cup
posed Assassin
On Friday night, May 5th, while Mr. H.
hood, was standing in Loving's saloon at
Beauregard Station. he was fired at from a
back room by some unknown pai ties, and
instantly killed-the ball taking effect over
the right eye. A Coroner's jury empan-
nelled the next morning rendered a verdict
duplicating H. +. Dunbar and r. I. Bost-
WICK. They having left the vicinity, re-
ward of 81 700 was offered for their appre-
hension. On Wednesday, the 10th inst,
Beauregard was the scene of another cold
blooded assassination. II. Z. dunbar, ac-
cused of the killing of A. Ferguson, beirg
shot and killed by parties unknown. No
clue has been obtained to the perpetrators
of this last outrage. Bostwick is in Jail at
Hazelhurst, where an attempt was made to
lynch him on Saturday night.
Since the above was set up we learn that
Dunbar was shot by the Sheriff7s posse
under Deputy Sheriff VIM. Ferguson, who
also arrested Bostwick and brought him to
Hazelhurst.
On Monday morning about four o'clock
another crowd of men, numbering about
fifty, all armed with double barrel guns
came. into town, broke the locks from the
doors of the Jail, and started with Bostwick
for the nearest tree. A few citizens follow
ed and plead for the life of the criminal,
and asked that the law be allowed to take
its course. Two ministers were sent for to
pray with the man hose soril was about
to be launched into eternity. The Rev.
Mess. Bingham and Weems responded to
the call, and offered up fervefit prayers The
prayers had the desired effect, the hearts Of
a greater part of the men were touched,
and a decided feeling was expressed to re-
turn the prisoner to Jail. Fortunately good
counsel prevailed, and the prisoner was
again given in charge Of lawful officers.

determine whether or not tax shall be
levied upon real estate in the city Of New
Orleans in be half Of the New Orleans Pacific
railroad: and
Whereas, All property holders' interests
in this city are staggering under load of
State and municipal taxation now beyond
the power of the people to beaI;
Resolred, That it is The sense of the central
council of the Property Holders Union of
the city of New Orleans that the House bill
in question is measure traught with the
direst calamity to real estate owners IN this
city, and carries with it the confscation OF
our property and utter financial ruin.
Resolred, That we are at loss to under
stand how such bill could be entertained
by the House Of Representatives, elected
in the interest OF reform, and to relieve he
people from their present oppressive bur
dens.
Resolced, That our legislative committee
be instructed to ascertain and report the
origin of this bill and the manner IN which
it passed the House of Representatives.
Resolred, That the legislative committee
be directed to memorializs the Senate and
the Governor Of the State to prevent the bill
from becoming law.
