Kinds County (Mississippi) Ga
zette: A good many negroes on
Big Black have been returning from
Kansas. Mr.. Chas. Newman has
had several to return. One of his
best and most thrifty tenants, who
went off last spring with $500. is
back, poor and disguised. He had
to send to Mr.. Newman for money
to get back. Many of them say the
tramp negroes and town idlers in
Kansas will mob them rather than
let any of them come back, and
that they have to get to the steam
boat landings slyly and secretly in
order to get back in safety. They
are told ali sorts of terrible stories
about punishments, &c, to those
who return to Mississippi.

left it, and did not have any better success than
his predecessor One thing Ed. Dewey did do
in his last discourse. which was largely devoted
to storytelling, he told his audience how it was
possible for person to procure fat sheep
without money or price, which, IL not original.
was very amusing. The gentlemen seem pleased
with each others department and so expressed
themselves. Elder Scott was not there the last

the weapon the second time, when to the

two shot in bis leg, just above the knee joint,
and within a circumference of three inches
An incision was made, through the superficial

covered-they having gone deeper, or possibly
rebounded. Who will be the next victim?
