The New Orleans journals of Wednesday,
|25th inst, announce the death Of JOSEPH P.
HoRNoR, Esq, of that city, whida took place
at his residence on Esplanade street, on the
night of the 24th inst, at 1920 o'clock.
As a personal admirer and friend, permit
me to say of him through your columns, that
a more kind, sincere and noble hearted gen
tleman never lived. He made no parade of
his good qualities, but unobtrusively prac-
ticed them. Those whom he permitted to be-
iieve he esteemed as friends he was always
willing and ready to serve.
| had the pleasure of sharing his friend
ship through many years of social life, and
therefore, am able to speak of him as he was.
He was a fine lawyer, and as an admiralty.
equity and chancery pleader, had no supe-
rior at the New Orleans bar, which all read
ing men know, is distinguished for it's learn
ing and ability. Mr.. Horror was remark
able for his extraordinary industry and pow
er of endurance. He worked up from boy
hood by the exercise of these qualities, and it
was often a source of much astonishment
how he kept up under all he was known to
undertake. His industry, energy, persever-
ance, fidelity to friends and duty to family,
are worthy of emulation, whilst his eminence
as a lawyer, in view of the obstacles met
with and overcome during early manhood,
should inspire courage and ambition among
all who desire to be useful in life. May the
eternal years of God prove a jubilee to his
emancipated spirit.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE,

Price and Henry Bentord, Pleas
Wright and Green Simkins were
jailed in Carrolton, Ca, March 23d.
They were charged with going to the
home of Sam Bowen just after mid :,
night and whipping Bowen nearly
to death and rap * his wife. Jesse
Brooks John and James Thigpen
were arrested for the same crime
and gave bond, and warrants were
sworn out for Ed Perdue Wallace
Brooks, Dock Gunnels and Bob
Ayers for being connected with the
same mob.
The crowd also visited the home
of old man Britt who is eighty years
old, and knocked him senseless with
the butt OF apistol. They then struck
down his 70-year>oh wife, also
Frank Eason, and whipped Mrs.
Mary Il. White numerically. The
mob Vas masked and threatened to
kill the parties if they attended the
justice court of their district and
testify in the case between Mrs
Mary E. White and J. H. Benford.
Benford and Mrs. White have been
quarreling about a piece of land,
and Mrs White says Benfod has
thrown her out of her own house
three lines.
Eleven men will be jailed when
caught. Great indignation exists
in the county over the whipping.

There is lake in the State of
Maryland, near Chestertown, that is
known as Still Pond, because it has
never been known to be ruflied or
disturbed by the most violent storms.
Another popularity about this lake
is that even during the recent cold
weather there was not skim of ice
on It's surface, and it is not known to
ever have been frozen.
