Richmond, Ya., December 3.-—After the re
assembling of the Court, Gov. S. H. Wells
and District. Attorney Black, for the govern
ment, replied, contending that the fourteenth
amendment merely created .a. disability and
not a penalty, which is the snbject of judicial
sentence, and was not inconsistent with the
act against treason. The amendment was
permanent and prospective; and could not
reasonably be construed as intended to re
peal existing punishments for past and future
treasons. The Court then adjourned.

Letter from the Revolutionists to the

(From the New Orleans Picayune.]
We received last evening the following let
ter from the Revolutionary, Juiita which'sits
in Havana! The Secretary of it does not
hesitate to sign his name. Is it a revolution
or a rebellion V If successful, say Yankee

To ihe Mlilor of .the Picayune, New Orleans:
Sin—As representatives of the Provisional
Republican Government of Cuba, established
in the town of Bayamo, we consider it our
duty to address you in regard to certain vague
rumors propagated by the Spanish authorities
and their adherents, with a view to mislead
public opinion as to the real facts of the
case. . s .
It has'beeh asserted by toes® and the ru
mor has gained some credence with the un

Army now* holding Bayamo feabout to lay
down its arms, in accordance with a treaty
proposed to them by the General of. the Span-.
ish forces, Count Bolmaseda. :
It is said that the Spanish General, with the
approval of the Captain General, proposed
an armistice until the meeting oi the Spanish
Cortes; that if.the Cortes adopted a republi-
can form of government, the Patriots Should
lay down their arms; if, on the contrary, a
monarchical form of government should be
adopted in Spain, that they shall be at liberty

condition that the Captain General should
guarantee that all the reforms established:
in the Peninsula should be extended to
Cuba." j'J J.' '• Li. J *
Both the reports are so ridiculons as hardly
to merit a refutation. By accepting the first
proposal, the Patriots would have everything
to lose and nothing to gain; for before the
Cortes could meet and arrive at a decision in
regard to the form • of government to be
adopted in Spain, the reinforcements now on
theiryens "from Spain will have arrived. here.:
The Spaniards might thus gain a great ad
vantage, and to obtain this delay some such
propositions were made to the chiefs of the
revolution, but were unhesitatingly and scom-
fdlly rejected. The idea of the Patriots
having accepted the second proposal is sim
ply ridiculous. We are not fighting- for re
form, but for independence. So far from
these statements being trqe, we who are fully
informed'of everything going op, and par
ticularly well informed as to the plans of the
revolutionary leaders, with whom we are in
communication, beg to assert most positively
that so far from being disposed to lay down
our arms, we are about to strike a blow that
will re-echo on the continent,
We will lay down our arms when Spain
shall have recognized our independence, and
not before,. notwithstanding Spanish asser
tions and wishes to the contrary.
One of the main objects the fabricators of
the news in regard to our laying down our
arms had in view, was that their false rumors
should reach the United Slates and discour
age sympathizers with the Cuban cause.

A HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Butchery of aix Entire Family »•* Pen-.
trtM. County, Tennessee,
A little over a weekago a frightful tragedy
was enacted in Fentress county, in this State,
near the Kentucky fine. The GOurier-Journal,
of Louisville, has the following particulars :.
There lived in that section a family composed
of an old lady, some eighty years of age, and
her three grandchildren—one a young lady,
another a boy of twelve, and the third a small
eirL In the neighborhood was a man named
Logsdon, ill-favored of face and of little char
acter, who in some way became cognizant of
the feet that the old lady had m her posses
sion a considerable, amount of money, the
back pay of her dead son . who had .been a
soldier; and he resolved to secure it at ail
hazards. Proceeding one. wgbt to the house
she occupied, Logsdon, with knife and re-.
volver, murdered the grandmother and grand
daughters, and left the boy for dead also. AU
the money he found, however, was $75, and
with this he fled. The hoy, who fortunately
survived, next day told the tale of the bloody

A RACK COURSE TRAGEUV.
Tlxe Personal Difficulty Between Gen.
Foxwcst, and P. 91. Dickinson, Esq.
[From fee ■Memphis Post, November 27. J
The race course yesterday was the scene of
not only a spirited race, despite the mnddy
track, but also a collision between two of the
judges, Justice P. M. Dickinson and General
ForreBt, which occasioned the riling up of
much bad blood, a bedlam of curses, a gen
eral display of deadly weapons, and the
shooting of officer Shocke in toe abdomen by’
by William Forrest; a brother of General
Forrest ...
The race.was between a favorite mare of
H. A Montgomery, Esq., and a fine gelding
of Col. Cockrell. The judges, as chosen and
mutually agreed upon by toe parties inter
ested in toe contest, were Gen. N. B.‘ Forrest,
Squire P. M. Dickinson and Sheriff A. P.
Ctury. Two o’clock p. m. was. toe hour ap
pointed for "toe races. The judges’ agreed
upon toe Long feland rules to govern their
decisions, and tne standard was to be the
best three heats in five.
The Cockrell horse won the first heat in
3:10|. The mare won toe second in 3:04$.
The third heat was disputed; but toe judges
decided in fevor of-toaCockrell horse. Out
of toe decision of this trot a dispute arose be
tween Gen. Forrest and Squire Dickinson.
As we are informed, toe latter declared that
his opinion had riot been consulted in regard
to this last decision.. Gen. Forrest becairie
greatly enraged at the assertion and in
dignantly denied toe statement, and Wound
up by giving too ’Squire a slap in toe face.
The Squire instantly drew his piBtol and
poolly leveled it at toe General, and was in
toe act of discharging its contents when Up
rushed toe police, about fifteen or twenty iu
number, and the bystanders—among them
Jesse and William Forrest—and prevented
toe intended shot. Great confusion, nngiy
words between toe friends of the two coiri-
batants, a drawing and' clicking of shooting
irons ensued.'
Jesse and William Forrest, with pistols in
each hand, were prominent in toe tragical
scene. Deputy Sheriff Wright seized toe
arms of the former and prevented his shoot
ing, but Bill Forrest, retreating a few steps
from toe crowd which.. besieged toe Squire,
discharged one shot in the direction of Ser
geant Brown, of the first district and patrol
man Geo. Schocke. Which of the parties
toe shot was intended for is riot known, but
toe ball passed through toe Sergeant’s coat
on the left side, arid into toe abdomen of toe
E atrolnian. Fortunately toe ball struck the
nttori. fastening Mr. Schocke’s over coat,
causing it to glance and rouge along one side
of toe abdomen; without penetrating, the in
testines. Sergeant Smith, of toe Sanitary
Police, about this time, as’we are informed,
succeeded in securing toeSquire’s pistol, and
stepping np to Geri. Forrest and exposing
toe-weapon - in his pocket, remarked, “I’ve
got _hia. pistol.” Whereupon toe General
grabbed it arid quietly pocketed it, with the
remark that he would see that no harm was
done. ‘
The wounded man was immediately taken
to his home, No. 84 Charleston avenue,
where his wound was dressed. Sergeant
Brown (whose conduct is said to have been
5 raise>ortoy iu the affair,) and patrolman
[ike Dea arrested William Forrest, and
quickly, marchin:
brought hiiri to 4
the 'station-house,
till tois-a. m., when he appeared before Jus
tice Griffith upon toe charge of shooting with
intent to kill, , and was bound over in toe sum
of $4,000. ;
Soon after the (arrest .of William Forrest,
toe angry erowd quieted down, but no further
arrests were made, though scores of parties
were known to have deadly weapons in their
possession, Order being restored, General
Forrest, mounted the stand and after a: brief
explanation "resigned his position asjudge;
but upon being importuned by his friends he
consented to remain, and toe fourth heat was
made, toe Oockiell horse winning in 3:07i.
Squire Dickinson remained on toe ground, re
fusing .to act as .judge; however, till the
assemblage left.
The rumors on the street this morning are
strongly indicative that the difficnlty is not
yet over.
Officer Schocke is reported by his physician
as in a critical condition this morning.

[From the Memphis Appeal, Nov. 99.]
The absurd proclamation of martial law by
toe so-called Governor of Arkansas coiild
hardly have other resnlt than rapine and
bloodshed. The Washington (Ark.) lelegraph,
of the IHto iust, comes to us with an aC-'
count of one of the most shocking occur
rences of these troublesome times, > which
we have not space to reproduce entire this
morning. -
It appear'd that oil Wednesday, the 10th
inst; a band of between two and three hun
dred men entered the little town of Center
Point, in Sevier county,’ about twenty-eight
miles from Washington, and took possession
of the place. Thken by surprise," thecitizens
were entirely defenseless, and were marshaled
en moose in an open field, where they were
kept nntil four o'clock? in tile afternoon, not
knowing by what authority or tor what
reason they were; atl'eated,". In the mean
time the town was ransacked and plundered
by the armed wretches calling themselves
Clayton’s, militia, of everything of value, and
whatever they could not oarry away they
destroyed. Finally, one Capt. Reeves ad
dressed toe captive citizens in the following
strain, as reported by the 'Mteipraph:
“Gov. Clayton had deolared martial law in
Sevier county. They, were there to enforce
his proclamation. It was only the imitation
of what would ocour. His mBn were en
raged. It was with great diffioulty.he could
restrain them. They'wanted to klix ten oe
twelve men anyhow, They want to: hang
some of you fellows. We are coming back
here again, perhaps to morrow,” etc.
The darkest part of this monstrous out
rage remains to be toid. Next day a number
of citizens from the adjoining country, hear
ing it reported that jayhawkers had made a
descent upon Centre Point, came into town,
some of them armed.- A meeting was held,
and it was agreed, in view of the authority.
under which toe raiders had pretended to he
acting, to appoint committees to visit Mur
freesboro' and Washington " to confer with
Claytop and tho military authorities. While
they were' still In consultation the horde of
thievep and assjiaainB again suddenly, entered
the town and oommeneed an indiscriminate -
onslaught, shooting down a nrimber and
making prisoners .of those who were not
fortunate enough to escape. They afterward

dered them *in bold-'blood. The Telegraph
thus concludes its account of. this most hor-;
rible rruit ofClayton’s blood-thirsty brutality:.
“Three other citizens of Sevier connty,

standing in the' community, strong and un
wavering advocates of peace, of law, of or
der, respected for their age and esteemed for
their virtueg, Hester, Anderson and Gilbert
by name, living under a government declared
by Congress.to be republican in form, were,
led out to the scene of slaughter and shot
down like dogs, by men acting under instruc
tions from the Executive of the State. There
were also some six or eight citizens wounded*
but how many of the militia were killed and
wounded we were unable to ascertain-. The
militia are still in possession of Centre Pointy
and have all 'approaches to the town guarded.
They permit persons to enter the pl ace hut

“Blood will have blood,” and the vengeance
of an outraged people will yet fall upon and
orash the miserable wretch who thus prepares
a banq^t of plunder and slaughter for his
murderous minions.
