Hanging Of a C0iored Man.

CULPEPER c. H., VA, August TO-
On Sunday night a colored man nam.
ed VIM. Thompson comrnitted bru-
tai assault on little white girl at
Mltchells Station, Culpeper county
The man was arrested on Monday
and whilst being guarded at Mitchell's
Station on Monday night a party Of
colored men attempted his release. In
the melee A. A. Riddle, white man,
was struck by a stone thrown by q
colored man named Claxtou, who in
return was shot and severely wounded
On Tuesday morning Thompson was
brought to this place and committed
to Jail by justice for the action Of
the grand jury.
Last night about IL o'clock a crowd
Of men gathered in the dark near the
Jail. and at one o'clock a company,
some sixty in number, marched down
Main street in an orderly and silent
manner, and, hating at the Jail, de
manded admittauce. This the iaiIor
refused, but finally yielded to force and
delivered up the keys The crowd
marched in and found Thompson
chained to the floor OF his cell. The
chains were quickly broken, and with
Thompson in the center of hollow
square bis captors marched along the
county road to the Confederate Gene
terry, short distance from town. and
halted at a large poplar tree. The
leader asked Thompson # he had
anything to say, but the negro, who
had before confessed the crime, declin-
ed to talk. A rope, which had been
brought by the party, was fastened to
the tree and Thompson swung off.
As soon as life was extinct his execu-
TONERS rode away, and the body hung
until about noon today. 1t is thought
that the executioners came from the
neighborhood of Mitchell's Station,
and comprised some of the relatives of
the outraged girl. The affair was
conducted so quietly that most of the
village knew nothing of it until this
morning. The coroners Jury failed to
identity any one as participating in
the hanging.

Northern newspapers, even those
friendly to the South. such as the Phil
adelphia Record, don't seem, even yet,
to have learned that everybody in the
South, of any account, during the war,
was. in the Confederate army. The
Record says, in speaking of Col. Holli-
day: HE was a Confederate officer
and a member Of the rebel Congress,
but is presumed to have been thorough
ly reconstructed" All the men whose
names were before the convention were
IN the Confederate army, audit would
be hard to find a native Virginian in
the State old enough to hold the Office,
and able to I'll it, who was not in that
same army; but that does not make
them the less loyal to the country now,
as they would prove Were there occa-
sion for the display Of loyalty.-Alen
