PIERRE, s. D., Dec. 24.-Great excitement

learned that the scheme has been in embryo
for several weeks and q number OF promi
nent residents of East Pierre are concerned
in it.
The work commenced at IL O'Clock
last night and all the night men with teams

| crossing the river. The people OF Pierre
! being entirely unconscious of what was 60
ing IN, all vent well until about 6 g.

| whereon the squatters had located, discov'
cred them. Securing a band OF followers
he attacked the squatters with guns
| pistols and lassos. They lassoed
the boss carpenter and severely
| injured several OF the home seekers. Fl.
nally the latter took fight, being unable

their dismay a storm OF rain and slee'
set in, and one by they came stragglinl

half breeds secured lumber, piled
it up and set fire to it and now all

while the yells of the victorious breeds,

metal was poured in at the mouth the
mould exploded sending about a thousand
pounds Of metal in a perfect shower among
the men.

Butchery.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.-The Chicago Times
has the following account from Columbia,
8. c., OF the lynching Of the eight negroes at
Barnwell this morning: Three hundred
armed men with their faces masksa sur
rounded the jail just before daylightthis
morning, when the inmates were sleeping
soundly. They moved with eau.
ton and as an organized boty.
The iailer was seized and own
powered, his keys taken from him, the eel
doors unlocked and before the frightened
negroes within were awakened from theii
sleep, their cells were filed with strange
figures, they were seized and carried out
into the night; their cries for mercy, pray
ers and curses were alike unheeded by their
silent executioners. The body of men were
put into motion and proceeded a quarter
of a mile and halted in the outskirts Of the
town. The eight unfortunate wretches were
secured. several hundred shots we're fired
and eight bodies laid on the earth with
blood running from hundreds OF wounds,
literally torn to pieces. Such was the
scene Of the terrible tragedy enacted in the
town OF Barnwell this morning. The most
terrible r%etribution for not extraordinary
o~ffenses as the records will prove.
Four years ago five men were lynched in
Yorkville for a brutal murder Of
a little boy, who caught them
stealing; but they belonged to IN organ.
ICED gang whose members we're sworn to
kill whoever caught them stealing, ard
they were believed to have committed ser-
eral murders previously. Their conviction
was uncertain, and the people took The
lynching OF this morning is so without
parallel in the record Of crimes in this
state, and there was less ground
for the act than probably any lynching b.
fore. 1t is doubtful il the country can shoE
q like record. The negroes were charged
with committing and being accessory to tbs
crimes described below on the afternooa
of Oct. 20: !
John G. Heffermau was shot and il.
stantly killed in q restaurant in Barnwel,
by Ripley johnson. Hefferman vas one
OF the principal merchants of the town and
johnson was q c ,lored man employed 1t
that time in running a gin mil.
There had been some trouble
q white man and the negro the Jay Deiore,

he had been summoned to appear befoh
the town council the morning following
and had been put under bond. The killing
took place in q colored restaurant where
/ Hefferman had followed johnson. Five
negroes, accused OF being accessories, who
were in the restaurant, fed to q swamp
but were shortly afterward captured AM
Jailed. A large reward was offered for Riy;

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Charles r. Flint re-
ceived from a correspondent in Brazil, who
is q of the leading Republicans of Brazil,
q letter to the effect that the Brazilians
have been very much pleased with the sup
port and sympathy of the press OF the
United States, which is in marked contrast
to the many articles which have been re-
ceived from the press Of Europe. This fact,
Flint states, is going to have a most bene-
fetal effect in cementipg and iurthering the
relations between the great republics oil
North and South America.
