AN OUTBACK IN ANItKItSON.

Houses ot Derenoetess Cltlaens.
A)t4?riU>i IntelHyefirrr. \
A most at ropioits outrage was com
mitted on Mr. I/. Gray’s plantation
last Thursday night. A party *»f f«*u
men went t«* the house of a colored
iiian named John 1 teed, who is a ten
ant of Mr. B. 1^. Gray’s, and hr**: e
into his house,liunting for him,for tin
avowed purpose <»f ki.ling him. For
tuuulely he was ppt at home, and the
assailants hdd to content themselves
with running his 'n’ife and children
out of do<>>.f in their night clothes.
From Bewd’fi house the hand went to
the hous^if James R. Hjx, a white
tenant mi Gray’s place, ami called foi
him. Hix raised his window, and
immediately one or more shots were
fired, one of which struck and imbed
tie*I itself in the window sill, just be
low Htx’s body. An elevation of a
few inches would have killed him.
Ffix, of course, immediately shut his
widovy, and the party, fearing detec
tion or for some other cause, left his
housp, and as they passed the road in
froqt «f Gray's ftred 41 his house, the
shot striking the roof, which is low.
On Friday warrants were issued by
Trial Justice Featherstonu for Jaiqes
Bowen, a son of Mr. W. J. Bowen. —
Elrod, ami tvyq young ineq of the
name of Moorehead, from Mart poun-
r v, Ga., one of whom is a son-in-law
of Mr. Bqwen. 411 of tlie p»rtius ac
cused of these out rages are white, and
none of them can he found in the
county, .except Elrod, who was ar
rested, and, after a preliminary ex
amination, was committed to jail in
default of hail to await Ills trial in the
Circuit Court. Of course we do not
wish to express any opinion as lo the
guilt or innocence of the parties ac
cused of tliis outrage, but we must, in
the most eniphujic maimer, denounce
tbe perpetration of these uqtrages, and
insist that the guilty parties, if possi
ble, be ferreted out and punished to
lie fullest extent of the law. Such
a state of society should not for one
instant be tolerated in Anderson coun
ty. The peace and good order of our
county is endangered, as well as the
iives of the persons thus attacked, by
such outrages.

Court to fill their several pulpits to

Armstrong fcqd a carefully written
statement concerning his trip to Cin

cross-examination by the prosecuting
attorney, Charlton, On Monday the
nrosecucion will place one witness on
,fhe st^ud in rebuttal of the evidence ii -
troduced by the defence. This will
close nil the testimony and'the ease
will then i*e argued by the attorneys.
A decision wilj be reached on Wed
nesday. A resume of Armstrong’s
testimony has been given to the press
by a gentleman ppnnectod with tin-
trial. The clergyman’s statement
gives thp wjfole story of his life, and
touched upon other charges brought
against him. one of whicl) was that
while drunk he delivered a Sunday-
school lecture iu Virginia. Two wit-
nessess testified that this was a fact
but Mr. Armstrong swears such was
not the ease, and that the witnesses'
evidence was false. He said he
was not intoxicated whjle in Cincin-
jpti, but admitted drinking beer wi.h
uinuer, and also admitted visiting
houses of ill-repute, bi^t says lie did
so on a Godly mission, in the endeav
or to save a lost soul. As the trial
now stands, only one witness testifies
that tlie clergyman was drunk.
