Tuz Needle Womans’ Fiuend Society.—
Ike ladies of this benevolent association held
a regular meeting at the residenco of their
Frssideut. Mrs. Ann M. Davis, on Tuesday
%::truoon last. Tut* business transacted was
? a private nature—the usual routine of their
;.criodieal meetings.
From their minute book, we learn that the
Society was organized on the seventeenth of
lVhumry, 1S49, "for the purpose of providing
employment for indigent females, at a reason-
»ble compensation, • • to enable them
! i support themselves." Since that time the
<vi >iy lias been in active operation—except
lunug the two years immediately following
:'i« W ar—and much good has been aecoro-
p :itied by it, and many a poor woman res-
.■■d or withheld from want, and death, and
«.n through its instrumentality.
Full or partial employment is now being
famished to an average of twenty-five per-
•m per month. The number of applicants
:t work is much greater than this, but the
limited means of the society renders it irn-
p>Mblo for all to receive assistance at its
hauls. The terms of membership are one
dollar per annum, and the ladies are anxious
to increase their numbers, and, thereby, their
Ability to do good.
Orders for any description of ladies' or gen-
sewing’ are constantly solicited. It
> within the power of our people to give
•heir poor much aid in this way without feel-
any unusual drain npou their purses, and
the nvnes of tho ladies of the society are a
nuhcieut guarantee that all work entrusted
to them will l>e well and promptly done. •

THE BROiDBIXEB ML'Li)EH.
The testhnony of the 8tate in the case of
C®snr Wiggins, one of the negroes indicted
for the murder of Mr. Broadbakor, on the
fith of December, 1868. was resumed.
John Williams, negro, sworn: He testified
that iu December laf»t he was iu Chatham
county, near the city, on the night whan
Mr. Broadbaker was killed; it was on Sat
urday night; I was on the Thunderbolt
road that night; I was first to the mar
ket, -and Nero Williams and William
Floyd went .with mo from the market; we
left the market about eight o'clock and went
to the Fort, when Wm. Floyd went into n
house and got his gun. From there we went
to the brickshop on the Thunderbolt road, at
the edge of town; I bad my gun when I left
the market; Nero Williams aid not get a gun;
I met Jack Wiggins and Isaac Brown; we
stayed a half of an hou{ at the shop, when
Caesar Wiggins, Alien Davis, Boney Lloyd
and Peter Bennett came there; Aleck Ed
wards was the last that came up. We left
the shop together and went on the Thunder
bolt road; Boney Lloyd stopped at another
shop; I had a gun; Isaac Brown, Ciesar Wig
gins. Jack Wiggins, Wm. Floyd, Aleck Ed
wards and Allep Davis had guns; Boney Lloyd
had a revolver; Nero Williams, Peter Bennett
and Sampson Wiggins bad no weapons; Bo
ney Lloyd acted as captain; we marched to the
other side of the brick culvert and stooped a
little way up the hill; Boupy Lloyd carno
around and picked out Nero Williams nnd
me, and said, I want you two boys to go be
fore with me, nnd make ns much noise as
you choose; you must whoop and hal
loo as much* ns you please; we went
ahead and the rest of the parly followed
right after; Boney Lloyd whooped and “hol
lered,” and shortly after a party of white men
came towards us; as they came up Boney
Lloyd whistled; I don’t know what for; Boney
Lloyd said, “You d—d gardeners must come
out, wc arc ready for you.” After the whistle
the white men came up nnd one took my gnu
out of my hand; there were ten or twenty
white men; I knew Mr. Mnstick and Mr.
Jacob Klein: I did not kuow Mr. Broadbaker; j
when the whito men first came up and look
my gun Nero Williams ran, and then I ran;
as soon as I did so I heard firing behind me;
I ran towards Thunderbolt; as I ran I heard
the whistling of shot over my head; heard
.nothing else: I ran and jumped over a fence
on the right band side of the road; after the
firing was over 1 came back to the crowd; I
then saw a man lyiug on the ground; he was
a white man and was dead; a gun was lying by
him; I have seen the gnn since; would know
it again; it was a short, breech-loading gun;
I took it out of Isaac Brown's hand and car
ried it a short distance; Isaac Brown picked
it up from the side of the dead man. [A
Sharps rifle was shown witness and he
stated that it was the one that was lying by
the dead mau.] When I came back I told
the party that the white men had taken
wy gun, and Isaac Brown said, “take this
gun ana carry it until you get to the turnout,"
and 1 took it The gun was loaded when I
got it I do not know who fired from the
colored party. The prisoner was half tight
when we went back, and was cursing and
a “gwying" on. He had a gun on his shoul
der; and after the msn was killed prisoner
tried to fire his gun into Mastick’s house as
we went along tho road. The boys stopped
him from firing. I heard only about two or
three shots. Saw two or three white meu
over the fence who were wounded. Tho pris
oner said, when he attempted to fire into
Mustick’s house, that he had meddled with
him the Saturday night bofore, and had
chopped his stick.
Mr. Hart ridge, after stating the difficulty
he labored under in obtaining, by general
questions, testimony from the witness who
was orrested on Ihe charge of being implica
ted in tho murder, and was afraid of implica
ting hiuiself, rend tho amended law of
ihe State regarding witnesses thus situftted,
and requested that the Court should grant
him the privilege of asking leading questions.
Mr. Stone objected to the request, claiming
that the grounds token by Mr. H. were not
sufficient.
The Judge decided to grant Mr. H. the
privilege he requested, stating that under the
present circumstances the teohnic&l rules of
the Conrt would not be rigidly enforced.
Mr. Stone announced that he would take
exceptions to the ruling of the Court.
The testimony was resumed: I did not hear
Wiggins say that he was ready for M-istick.
Isaac Brown had a chill that night. Do not
know if that was the reason of his not firing.
After the firing was over I heard some of onr
party say we must hurry home, or the while
meu would meet them and attack them.
The Cross Examination- elicited the state
ment that tho Thunderbolt read was the
thoroughfare for persons traveling between
town and White marsh island; that the negroes
came in every Sr turdav to sell their little
stock, and that it was customary for them to
carry their guns day and night; that there
were no women in the party that night; that
Caesar Wiggins said that night “ he came to
town to sell his freight, and wasn’t going to
meddle with any one unless they muddled
with him;” that all except jvitness and Nero
1*4 they before ihU time kept op eo. organ-
izatioa to defend themselves, the witness re

C;csar Wiggins, Peter Bennett and Aleck'Ed-
wards camo with him; leaked Boney why
he came bo late; they said they had had a
skirmish on the road, and one man go
killed. * -
Some discussion here ensued between Mr.
Hartridge and Mr. Stone relative to the wit
ness testifying to what Boney Lloyd stated
at the house in which she was staying that
night.
The Conrt decided that the witness could
continue her testimony regarding the state
ment of Boney Lloyd; and Mr. Stone an
nounced that he would accept the decision.
The testimony whs resumed: Boney Lloyd
stooped over the fire, and whispered to me
that Cresar Wiggins had killed the'than;
Caesar was about six feet from us when Boney
told me; Cresar said nothing to Hie contrary:
he and the rest of the party were talking at the
time; don’t know that Boney heard him; the
party didn’t etay long at the house, but went
over to Whitmarsh island; I remember that
Boney said that Inaao Brown picked up the
gan as the man fell.
The Cross Examination elicited nothing
new nor contradictory.
Dr. Ezra T. Rogers, sworn: He testified
to having known Mr. Broadbaker, and of
having seen his dead body on the day after
tho-night dnring which he was killed.
At this point the grand jury came in and
returned the following bill:
State vs. Win. McAllister—Burglary iu tho
night—true bill. . I
The testimony was resumed: Tho body was
at tho home of the deceased; I examined it
and found that the anterior half of the lower
juw was completely torn away, exhibiting a
wound which from the nature of it would
have ^caused death in ten minutes; it was
a mortal wound.
Julia Wiggins sworn- She testified that she
knew the prisoner; that 6he lived on White-
marsh island; and remembered the night on
which Mr. Broadbaker was killed; that fihe
saw Cresar Wiggins the next morning at her
house, and Cresar there said that he she t
Broadbaker, he said he killed him, said tln-t
he disturbed him on the road; Isaac Brown,
Wm. Floyd, Sandy Hunter, and Henry Brown
were in the house when Cresar made his
statement; Cresar said that Isaac Brown went
up to the man when he fell and took his gnn,
I>apers and pooketbook; Hannah Wiggins was
in the honse at the time.
The Cross Examination dicited the state
ment that she was the wife of Sampson Wig
gins; that her husband was one of the parlies
implicated in the murder, nnd was nmler ar

Mr. Hartridge opened the argument at ten

Mr.-Stone commenced his argument a min

spoke eighteen minutes. He acknowledged
at the outset that Mr. H-’s review of the tes

that it was unnecessary far him to touch upon

High Compliment Paid to a Citizen of
Savannah.—The editor of the Montgomery
Mail, in mentioning a pleasant entertainment
given iu that city iu houor of Dr. A. J.
Semraes, formerly of New Orl&fan, but now
of Savannah, says that “the Doctor was on
his return from the former city, where he had
been iu attendance upon the National Medi
cal Association as a member and as the As
sistant Secretary. We acknowledge our
selves to have been quite taken with this gen-
tleroau at once. His is a face to disarm sus
picion—frank, genial, pleasant; one basks in
the sunlight of bis smile; one returns the
firm pressure of Lis soft, warm band, aud is
made his friend at once. Of course, the con
verse of two or three hours will be under
stood as too limited in extent to allow of nu
accurate judgment of this gentleman’s quali
ties of mind, but tho opportunity was afford
ed to perceive that his intellect has been.well
cultivated, bis. mind well stored with forge
and varied professional lore; and the turns
and interchanges of sentiment before nnd
during our pleasant repast, gave free play to
fbose lighter graces which enliven and embel
lish intercourse with an intelligent and scien
tific man.” »

To the Owners of Real Folate in Tennessee,
Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas:
THE COMPANY, knpwn to the public os the
“MISSISSIPPI VALLEY NAVIGATION COMPANY
OF THE SOUTH AND WEST,’* is organized under
a charter from the State of Louisiana. This charter
authorizes a capital stock of Tire Hundred Thousand
Dollars, with the privilege of extension to One Mil
lion. That ths public may know the exact object of
the Company, the third article of the charter is given
entire. aatoUowt: «
“The object of this Company la to construct or
otherwise procure and maintain one or mare steam
boats or other vessels, to run on and navigate the
Mississippi river, er its tributaries, tar the purpose of
carrying freight, mails and passengers; to construct
docks, wharves, buildings, and such other construc
tion* as may be necessary to the building end repair
ing of vessels, and generally to exercise ouch inci
dental powers and privileges as ere hereby or may be
conferred on them for the purposes aforesaid.”
The Company propose, under the provisions of this
charter, to construct a line of steamers to run between
the different ports on the Mississippi river and its
tributaries. They will be constructed on the low-
pressure principle; they will carry less steam; they
will moke better time, and be, in ail respects, more
safe than any description of boats ever placed
upon our waters. Divided into distinctcompartmenta,
if disaster, whether by firs or snags, shall happen to
one, the boat ia not endangered. In esse ot Are, sp-
paratus for turning steam upon it will be provided,
and it is demonstrated that steam ia tbe most ef
fectual extinguisher of fire. In case one compart
ment is broken through by contact with snags, and
fills with water, the others are not endangered, and
the boat cannot oink, as pumps, provided for sach an
emergency, will be in Instant operation. Safety to
passengers and freight is a groat end, worthy of the
struggle of the people of the Mississippi Valley.
Nearly three hundred thousand dollar* In money
and work has already been subscribed tQ the capita
stock of the Company. The Louisiana Legislature
has passed a bill subscribing one hundred thousand
dollars of the stock to the Company. An additional
sura of that amount will, without doubt, be subscribed
by the same body. The Company have resolved to
take lauds for stock, and this la the feature to which
they desire to call the attention of owners of real
estate. In the Southern States, on account of the dis
organized condition of labor, lands are an incum
brance. Vast tracts that yield no revenue to the pro
prietors, pay exorbitant taxes, and thus cripple their
only productive resources. This company 'proposes
to take these lands at a fair valuation, and issue to the
owners their stock in lieu. If lands shall enhan ie in
value, so will tbe stock enhance in value, and thus the
land proprietor will carry ic his pocket the equiva
lent of hia lands, to be converted into money or prop
erty without delay. The success of this great
enterprise is beyond question. The stock holder, in
addition to the benefit of tho enhanced value of hia'
lands, will be part owner of a line of boats, and enti
tled to dividends in their earnings.
Persons wishing to exchange lands for the stock of
the Company will send to the Agent at Memphis a de
scription of them; their productive qualities; the
timber: bottom or upland; whether overflowed or
not; if overflowed, what proportion; how near to
county town, to railroad, depot, river, and all the facta
necessary to afford the Company a satisfactory idea of
the land. This may be done by certificates of relia
ble. disinterested persons residing in the neighbor
hood. The present actual value of tbe land may be
proved in the same manner. The party offering
lauds must state in his proposition the lowest figures
he will take. The Company will not give exorbitant
prices. The titles must be unhacumbered by Judg
ments. mortgages, deeds of trust, tax, titles, or other
wise. This may be shown by official certificate* of
judgee, clerks, sheriffs, or the opinions of respectable
attorneys. This Is believed to be the beat opportuni*
ty to dispose of surplus land* in the South and West
that has yst been or con be offered.
Many of the wealthiest citizens of the South and
Wpst are warmly embarked in the enterprise. The
General Headquarters of the Company are in New
Orleans, but agandea exist in#U the principal cities.
The enterprise has been indorsed by underwriters,
chambers of commerce, engineers, mechanics, prac
tical navigators sad all classes or practical men.
Tbs foregoing facte are submitted to tbe public In
the confident belief that they will be understood and
appreciated.
