Negro Uprising Against White Residents
Call for Troops.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 12.--News
reaches here of threatened race-war
in Crittenden County, this state, the
negro population being up in arms.
Half dozen prominent planters have
been notified through their colored SER
wants that their lives are in danger as
the negroes are determined to drive the
white people out of the county or kill
them. This warning was supplemented
by anonymous notes which were sent to
various while men throughout the post
Office at Marion, giving them five
days in which to leave under penalty of
death. One of these missives was re-
ceived by the sheriff of the county, a
white Republican. The white people
have therefore prepared. Gov. Hughes
has been notified of the state of affairs
and seventy-fve Winchester rifles were
sent over from this city. A conflict is
likely to occur at any time. Should one
occur it is feared that many lives will be

Farmer Hall Attends Forty five Terms of
Court to Answer for 3 Murder.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 1S.-Twenty-
three years ago the wife of William
Hall, a farmer living in Cherokee Coun-
ty, was murdered. Hall was arrested
for the crime. He was twice tried con-
victed and sentenced to the penitentiary
for life, but each time succeeded in get
ting new trial. Thirteen years after
the murder the Indictment against
Hall was nolle pressed, but afterwards
another was returned. Thus for nearly
ten years vain effort was made to have
third trial. Hall has attended forty
five terms of court to answer the charge,
and the case has cost the county over
$20,0 900. Last week the case was taken
up for the third time and the jury, after
being out two days and nights, returned
verdict of mot guilty"
