A most shameful and dastardly dee'
was perpctratcd in Winchester las
Thursday night, between 0 and II
, O'Clock, and II really mortifes us, us !
will every one who feels n pride IN tn
general good character of our oomm'''
nifty for morality and decency. But /
is right and important that such deeds
be published, to the end that the guilt,
party may be found out and punished
and the public warned that we are no
entirely exempted from any bad ano
degrading element in society. Til.
facts are as follows At tho time men
toned, Miss Lizzie Robertson, a most
estimable and accomplished yonng Ia
dy of our town, was sitting by the win
dow of her mothers residence, con-
versiug with Mr. McLaurinc. II friend
of the family, from Pulaski. The win-
dow was raised, and some voices were
heard out in the dark in the street,
when suddenly stone came wh'zzing
through. Miss Robertson had turned
instantly upon hearing the noise OF the
stone coming through the air, and re-
ceived the missile upon her breast,
from which it rebounded, striking her
under the chin, knocking out tooth
and INJECTING a flesh wound, The
stone struck large breast-pin Miss X.
had on, and shattered it completely.
OF course the shock rendered her un-
conscious almost for come nom ents.
Mr.. McLaurine made an unsuccessful
effort to find out who the villain was.
We have not language sufficient for
condemnation of such cowardly act,
and it is to be hoped that the scoun'
drel will be found out. We did not
believe Winchester contained such q
character. The stone is a heavy one,
as lift were composed mainly of lead.
and was thrown, evidently, With great
force ard precision. Whether it was
aimed at Miss Robertson, or her gen.
tleman friend, 10 q question. But the
inramy OF the act is the same, and is
very properly condemned in severest
terms by all with whom We have cons
versed.
