A Dastardiy Murder.
fCatahoula News.1


On the night of December IL, a
negro, Isaac Maxwell by name, while
about to go on board the steamer Jno.
Wilson near Trisler's Landing, on
Black River, was taken by body of
armed men, riddled with bullets, his
pockets ritled and his body after be-
ing cut. open and disemboweled,
thrown into the river. William G..
Dale, one of the murderers, lastiweek
voluntarily came before Mr.. Henry
Trisler, Justice of the 18th ward, and
made a confession, thinking that 10y
duplicating others, his own crime
would be condoned, and he himself
be allowed to escape the penalty of
the law. According to his statement,
it appears that he got on the steamer
Wilson to go to Emerson's Landing,
aud that on the boat he met Duff
Bnrley, Jno. w. Crane and Stephen
Fredricks. Burnley stated that he had
warrant for Maxwell. Dale says
that the other parties insisted on his
going with them to Trisler's landing
to assist them in taking Maxwell,
but did not state what they intended
TO do with him. When they got off
the boat they found the negro Max
we'll at the landing, about to come
aboard, and arrested him. After
walking off a piece, they all took a
drink, and gave the bottle to Maxwell,
who also drank, and after handing
the bottle back broke loose and ran.
His captors then fired at him with
pistols and he fell wounded into a
mudhole, but rose again and ran.
Dale ran after him and on overtaking
him shot him down. The other
parties then came up and emptied the
contents of their pistols into his
body. Search was made by Stephen
Friedrich, who found 81 05 on Max
wells person, which amount was diyi-
ded among the parties. The body
was then cut open and thrown into
the river.
The reason given for the killing of
the negro was that he was cohabiting
with white woman, and had failed
TO leave the country when ordered to
do so. 1t strikes us, however, that
If death was the only adequate pun
ishment for such au offense the wo-
man ought to have been the one to
suffer. As the body of the negro
was searched and his money taken
from him, it looks very much as if
the above reason was a mere pretext
for an act of robbery.
None of the parties implicated live
in Catalonia.

SUNDAY LAw.-Another worthy ey-
ample has been given us, on this
question, by our sister town, YER
milionville. Every merchant of the
place signed petition asking for the
adoption of Sunday law. This
completely refutes the oft-repeated
assertion that it is church move.
We as firmly as any one contend that
matters of church and State should be
separate and distinct, and hence we
are glad to be able authoritatively to
contradict this argument of the min
GRITTY who oppose the Sunday law. We
say minority" because we know
that large majority of the people of
the rural districts earnestly desire
such law, and we hope that town
after town and parish after parish
will GO on adopting the ordinance
requiring all places of business to be
closed on Sunday. and that the mat
ter will be brought to the attention
of our Legislature and so pressed that
State Sunday law will be the result.
Then there can be no good objection
offered to it; then our people can enjoy
the day quietly as in other civilized
then husbands aud sons will
spend Sunday with their families in
stead Of gambling and drinking in the
stores then the colored lahorers hay-
Bg fewer opportunities of debauchery

Dalton in Lore.

The Quaker philosopher lived in "srfssie
blessedness," and dieda bachelor, but he was
not insensible to the charms of the fair sex, &C
cording to his own confession in his journal:
II never met with a character so finished as
Hannsh's. What is called strength of mind and
sound judgment she possesses ina very emil
nent degree, with the rare coincidence of
quick apprehension and most lively magma
ton. Of sensibility she has full share, but
does not affectedly show it on every trivial oc-
casion. The sick and poor of all descriptions
are her personal care. Though undoubted-
ly accustomed to grave and serious reflec.
tons, all pensiveness and melancholy are
banished from her presence, and nothing
but cheerfulness and hilarity diffused around
Her uncommon natural abilities have been
improved by cultivation, but art and form
do not appear at al in her manner-all is
free, open, and unaffected. Extremely alta
ble TO all, though every one sees and &C.
knowiedges her superiority, no one can charge
her with pride. She is, as might be expect
ed ~cn-pleased with the conversation of lit
srary and scientific people. and has herself
produced some essays that would do credit
