virginia Ku.Kiux Outrages.

WAsHlEGToN, July Sit is proper
now to state more definitely the locality
of the Ku- Klux outrages, of which an
account was published in the New
York Tribune of last Monday. They
occurred in Scott county, Va. The
report in regard to them was dated
at Abingdon, Va, but the information
seems to have been gathered chiefly
from the neighborhood of Estillville,
Scott County. The names Of the persons
whipped are Creed Snolin, Jacob Buster
John Mcconnell, J. P. Dean, James
Moore, Robert Lucas, James Nunneily
and Frank Davidson all but the frs
two named being white men.
The name of the president of thu
band is Johu Owens, and the names o
the twenty seven "privates" are al
known to the officers.
1t is believed that the local authori
ties will be able to deal with the mat
ter promptly and vigorously, and tba
no further action will be required OIL

OLD BAYARD FISHES.
Els Death at FELTON, Yesterday
The UNDERGROUND Railroad.

AhO OmuoEBkOuhU RoAAhVo~
At his home near FELTON,, in Kent
county, yesterday, Bayard Fisher, an
old colored man, who was 80 promi-
uently identified with the slave history
of the more Northern Of the Southern
States for years previous to the war,
that he will not be forgotten during
this generation, died at the ripe age Of
seventy odd years. The cause OF his
death was old age and rheumatism.
He was quite thrifty man and one
Of the most prominent and progressive
colored farmers In Delaware. Being
hard working, well to do and intelligent
he managed to make a living and lay
up considerable besides.
Bayard Fisher was associated with
the Underground Railroad" and was
particularly active in assisting his op
pressed brethren through this agency
In those old slave days, it will bt
remembered, there was a regularly
organized system up the Peninsula fol
carrying the slaves beyond reach o
their masters. One plan, which wa
seldom unsuccessful was to bring the
slaves across to FELTON, from Maryland
of nights.
Here on Bayard Fishers property
they would be kept in hiding until thu
next night when they would be run III
to Camden or Dover. At these places
they would be put in the hands of thu

Some New Important Projects
Contemplated in West Chester.
West Chester Local News Of Thursday.
Our readers will remember mention
being made last week of the President,
Henry Wood, and another gentleman
having visited West Chester, and while
here assembled into the courthouse stee-
Pile, from which point they made a
lookout survey Of the surroundings.
Their presence here and this action Gre
atyd considerable comment and specu-
lstion, but not until yesterday were we
able to reach the object Of their visit to
this place and their ascent into the
steeple, which was solely for the pur-
pose Of taking bird's.eye view Of the
southeastern portion of the borough
and devising some route by means OF
which they may Put their depot in q
central location.
The most desirable location which
Just now presents itself Is Church
street, Immediately in the rear Of the
Mansion House, where the livery
stable Of Mr.. Enos Seeds is located.
This is about as an attractive spot as
could be found in the borough, and in
point Of practibility is regarded as the
best. Were the depot located at that
point the line of road would make a
circuitous route from point below the
engine-bouse and by curving in east of
the Normal School, cross High street
near Gideon Miles residence, and
strike the sllsyway running parallel
with and between High and Church
streets up TO the depot.
If the borough authorities should favor
this enterprising step on the part Of the
p, W. & B. R. R. Co. in substantial
manner, by granting right Of way
through the aforesaid-mentioned alley,
the project would not lag a day, but be
pushed forwarded to completion. In
case the borough denies the privilege
OF using the alley for such purposes,
the route would necessitate the cutting
off of some rs feet of the rear yards OF
the residences on Church street, which
no doubt would incite much opposition,
also fabulous outlay in the way oil
damages.
The Company will, without doubt,
commence this proposed improvement,
even though it shall entail large cost,
If they can in any way do SO without
engendering the displeasure Of a certain
portion Of this community. Their
study and desire is to give to the people
of West Chester such facilities and rates
Of fare as cannot be surpassed, and To
this end they require and ask certain
cooperation on the part Of the public
spirited people Of the place.
The go.ahead and enterprising man
agement, however, are not alone direct
ing their attention to this end of theil
line, but are showing determination
,, to allow nothing to interfere that is in
the least associated With speed, safety
convenience and comfort as they apply
themselves to modern railway accom-
modations.
We are informed upon good author
ity that movement is on foot looking
towards the trains of the W. C. & P
and the Phila. & Baltimore Contra
roads being run into the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company's new depot at 18th
