Swearingen Acquitted.

AS will he seen by reference to
the District Court proceedings III
another column, the trial OF Geo
w. Swearingen for murder was
commenced Friday morning and
concluded Saturday night. This
was one of the most atroclous and
dastardly crimes which has ever
stained the criminal annals of this
Parish. VIM. Roark, a citizen OF
Forest Hill, in this Parish, was
assassinated in his OVID house III
the early part of the night of the
18th Of January last. He was sit
ting by the kitchen window, with
his head reclining against a pane
of glass, holding his infant child
in his arms, while Iris wife was at
the stove cooking supper. The
assassin crept stealthily to the
window, placed SO caliber revol.
yer against it, pulled the trigger
and ushered his victim into eter-
nifty without any premonition.-
The mother heard the report of the
pistol, looked around to discover
from whence the sound came, only
to see the infant fall from the
arms of it's father to the floor and
TO find that her husband had beer
shot.
Circumstances connected G. w
Swearingen with the crime. III
was arraigned and given a prelim
mary examination, but was re
manded to Jail without bail. Ill
was indicted for murder by sue
,, ceeding grand jury. He was pros
, ecuted by Mr. John G. Ryan, Dis

Should the President attempt

STEPHENSON ACQUITTED.-E.
N. Stephenson, who killed Charles
Abels, at Goodwin station, Oh the
Texas s. Pacific railroad, in this
Parish on the 9th of January, was
tried last Thursday and acquitted
by the jury. The verdict was a
unanimous one on the first ballot
and meets with popular approval,
as it was clearly shown that he
acted in self defense, when he shot
Abels, an unwelcome boarder, who
had been ordered to leave his ho'
tel on account of insulting Ian
guage offered to Mrs. Stephenson
and who was violently resisting al
attempt at ejectment, after all pa
cific measures had failed to induce
him to seek other quaters.
