I Freedman's C.wrt. I There were but few esses before Judge Pollard yes terday. Five negro boys were arraigned an the charge of cheating a riot at the corner of Broughton and Habersham streets, in front of the re ddenoe of Mrs. Lsmsr. One witness testified that they were drunk and creating a disturbance ; and that they also threat ened to shoot and stab him. Another, one of the commissioners appointed by the Freedman's Bureau, to arrest all idle and vagrant negroes, testified that these boys were noisy and dangerous to the peace of the city; that they were bad boys and a disgrace to the colored population. There were ten or twelve other wit. uesMS who ctmfirmed this statement, and the Judge tRem the sum of twenty dollars, or be confined on £he streets and lanes at hard labor. In the case of three white men who were charged with destroying the Skidswsy bridge to get a flat through, the matter was compromised, the white men agreeing to pay the negroes the* sum of one hundred forty-two dollars, the expense of repairing the bridge, besides the -costs of Court, which were ten dollars. On Saturday last Detective Cody of the Freedmen's court was informed that a man in Battle Bow had J?. me .°f fbe goods which were removed from Mrs. Higgins’ house while the United States guard was on the premises. He accordingly arrested him and his wife and brought them to court, when they gave bonds for their appearance yesterday morning. The man made his appearance, bat his wife was excused on ac count of sickness. The only witness examined was Mrs. Flaherty, who testified that she lived in this man’s house, and that last Friday two weeks ago, abont five o'clock in the morning she was awakened, and upon looking out observed this man with others engaged in removing the goods from Mrs. Higgnis' house to this one; and that the wife of the individual had spoken of the goods; and that she had heard them remark they wanted to save all they could. A friend of the accused appeared as his counsel and cross- examined the witness pretty severely. He asserted that this prosecution was a malicious one, and that the woman lodged the information merely from per sonal motives. The judge stated that this had nothing to do wth the case, and if they wanted to impeach the credulity of the witness they would have to furnish the the necessary testimony, fhe case was held over until to-day in order to summon another witness, and we defer giving the names of the parties until their guilt is tully established. TRAGEDY IN KNOXVILLE. An Kx-Colonel of Cavalry Killed by a • Negro Soldier—The Negro Subsequently Hung by a Blob. [From the Knoxville Commercial.] A most atrocious murder was committed in our city yesterday, at half past eleven, at the Charleston depot, where there was a government sale in progress. C. M. Dyer, late Lieutenant Colonel of the 1st Tennessee Cavalry, one of Tennessee’s best soldiers and one o our best eitizens, was deliberately murdered by a negro soldier. So far as we are able to learn, the facts are as fol lows : The Colonel, in company with Capt. Sharp, having completed his purchases, went to the rear of the build ing, which contained the property they had bought; at this place a negro guard was stationed, with orders to allow no person to enter the building, except on business. Each of the gentlemen had the necessary papers in hand, to show that he was entitled to entrance, and Captain Sharp did enter unquestioned, but Colonel Dyer, who was immediately following the Captain, was ordered by the guard to halt; the Colonel told the guard he was alter his property, at the same time showing his papers, and then stepped in the building, when the guard fired upoq him, shot him. through the breast, and killed him instantly. The body of the murdered man was immediately taken possession of, and placed in a metallic coffin, preparatory to sending him to his home at New Mar ket. In the death of this gentleman we have to de plore the loss of one of Tennessee's first defenders and best citizens. He left his home and joined tile Union army as a private in Kentucky as early as 18G2. Short ly thereafter he was promoted to First Lieutenant in his regiment, and then again to Major in August 1863. At the time of the Wheeler raid on Nashville in 1864, he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, from which time he was in command of his regiment until mus tered out of the service; since then his-course has been marked by his efforts to restore peace and har mony to the people of his vicinity, and in every man ner, indicative of a good citizen of Tennessee, devoted to her best interests. That the life of any man, and especially of one so wel] known and beloved as he, should be thus wan tonly sacrificed, we, in unison with the voice of the people, take occasion to deplore; that men’s lives are to be continually endangered by the presence of a set of men in authority, utterly ignorant of the discern ment between right and wrong, we emphatically pro test against. We do not wish it understood that we are among those that ere of the opinion that mob law is any case justifiable. What the world maj r think of us, from the develop ments of a later period in the day, we are not well able to predict. Whether it will make allowance for the feeling of those who knew the murdered mau best, associated with him through trials of four year’s ter rible war, experienced at his hands the ministrations of an excellent officer and almost brother, and who in their rage at his tragic fate, took the law into their own hands, and punished the murderer, or judge those who participated in the summary punishment, as men utterly unused to a recognition of civil law, we cannot venture to say. We are inclined to the belief, that the sober second thought of a people will severely condemn this usur pation of civil la at, which attaches to us an unenviable reputation. The guard, after having done this terrible deed, was arrested by Capt. Wainwright, and sent under guard to his office, there to be placed in custody of Captain Abdill, who commanded the negro's company. It seems that before rebelling the office the guard quitted him, and he was met by his officer, who asked him what he was douig away from his place of duty, to which the negro answered, he had been ordered to his quarters under arre6t. The officer then ordered him to go into his quarters to await a further development of the fact, of winch the negro availed himself to make his escape. By this time an infuriated mob' had gathered, and proceeded to the office and demanded the negro, but the officer beiug unable to produce him, was menaced with threats of hanging for being accessory to his es cape. Through our intercession the mob agreed that we, in company with the officer, should seek him, but our search was in vain. Returning to the mob we informed them of the fact, when three or four of them again took the officer to renew the search, making the success of the search a condition of his own life. At about two o’clock the murderer was found at the Government corral, where he had secreted himself. In attempting to make his escape about a dozen shots were fired at him, three of which took efleet, but none seriously disabling him. He was at length cap tured and dragged to the corner on which the office of the Feedmen's Bureau stands, where an attempt was made to hang him. Up to this time he had ex hibited little or no sign of life, and it was generally supposed that the rough treatment he had experienced had proved fatal; but upon being pulled up by the rope he struggled so violently that the rope broke and he fell to the ground. Jumping up, he made a desperate attempt to escape, but was soon overpowered, and then taken to the y«ud in front of Captain Wamwright's office, where, after procuring a stronger rope and allowing the wretched man a few moments to .appeal to the Source of all Mercies, the inexorable mob hung him to a tree. It was fully twenty minutes before he ceased to struggle, and fifteen minutes more before the judges pronounc ed the fact that his guilty spirit had taken leave of its ghostly tenement. , Arrivals at the Hotels.
