Mr. Murphy, of CraVford, furnish es iis with the followingTacts in re lation to the disturbance which occur red there last Friday night. \ It seems that for some time past a party of negroes in and around Craw ford were holding secret meetings in a house near the depot. And on the uight mentioned, the marshal, Mr. Jasper Hopkins, noticed Borne half dozen negroes on the way to their trysting place all well armed, and fearing that some mischief would re* i-ult from these meetings, determined to, keep a sharp sorveiliauce on them and frustrate their evil intentions. While keeping an eye on their ren dezvous, another negro pnt in appear ance, whereupon Mr. Hopkins arres- i ted him. The negro immediately gave a signal and called on his com rades to rally. Instantly, those in the house rushed pell-mell towards the marshal brandishing their arms and ordered him to turn loose their friend. Mr. Hopkins thinking that discretion, at this moment, was the better part of valor, turned his pris oner loose, when the whole party simultaneously tired, wounding him in the head, leg and hand. Mr. J. M. Norton, whe was with the marshal at this time was also shot through the leg. Both of tile above gentlemen are brave and chivalrous citizens, and we regret very much to learn of the cowardly manner in which they were assaulted. Some twenty or thirty white men responded to the call for them to ral ly, hut as the negroes fell hack, the whites established a picket line and held their position umil morning When daylight dawned, they ad vanced to the house hut found that the l irds had flown. The following colored men were arrested on suspicion Saturday morn ing: Ki g Ilardy, William Raines, Fred Raines, Bud Henry, Peter, a blacksmith, and another man named Henry. It is asserted that a notorious scoundrel by the name of Luke John, son is the ringleader of the gang, and every effort is being made by the citi zens of Oglethorpe county to bring him to justice; and we sincerely hope they will succeed in arresting this mid night assassin and teach him and his followers the penalty of their villainous crime. s Died.

This gentleman gave a reading at Deupree Hall, Saturday night; there was a very slim attendance on this occasion, and we regret to see so little interest displayed by onr citizens in these literary treats. Mr. Rende has the reputation of being the finest reader and delineator of humorous uharacteis now travelling, and those of our citizens who were fortunate enough to hear him, were highly phased and well entertained. Home Evidence. REFERENCES. A Card. Editor Georgian—Believing that if at any time, the oftiee should seek the man, and not the man the ofliee,' that should be in sending delegates to our Constitutional Convention. This is the thought echoed by the press and responded to by the people. Now ,as other good names have been suggested for this position, I as a citizen of Clarke county, having a 'onuuunity of interest and pride in her selection to this most responsible trust, deem it not inopportune to name one whose modesty of character is not surpassed by his sterling integri ty and whose legal accomplishments in the fundamental and constitution al laws of his county, and es pecially of his own State, ate not ex celled by his splendid intellectual abil ities—that man is Capt. Pope Barrow. Being a ^gentleman, scholar, patriot and a constitutional lawyer of the first 'water, his character it too well known to the good people of our coun ty to need further comment. He would give tone, dignity and influence not only to Clarke county but to the district at large in this Convention. Therefore, send him. Other papers in the district please copy. - Citizen.
