A Tittle over a rear since, some lilleen or twenty very genteel white 1141*11 ap peared at the residence of Harry Thomas, (colored) about a mile from this same place ; handcuffed his wife and put about twenty odd balls in bis body. llis w ife appeared at General Tillson’s office with the hand-cuffs on her. There was a mock trial before the Superior Court of Columbia county. The whole affair (as they called it,) was laughed out of Court. The mur derers are now at Shirty, tin nutd, yiiittijit.it and jirijniritt to commit like depredations. This is a free country, where justice is equally distributed. It is reported that these murderers are black men. We hope they will come forward, also ask an examination, give hail, appear, and see if tin: cane is /•nitfhcd if Court. State Board of Education.

The affair in Franklin county i- siat(-l by Captain Rickman in the following letter : “X lew 1 loi-r. Mi x _•!». 1 sti7. ",/iiiin.t /'. ilroiriihiir, fiiii/aditr Hi hi nil mot .1.

He also told how ! many Union soldiers he had bush whacked and killed. He wanted to show the bones ol two Federal sol diers that were close In his house, whom he and Rodgers had killed. I sent Lieutenant Unite w ith a squad of men to arrest Rrown this morning, and after they caught-him and w ere on their wav to the graves of the two men that he had killed, Grown broke and ran, whereupon three soldiers tired at him and killed him. “ Respectfully, your obedient servant, “ W vi.

He did so, and states the killing of Hrown to have : occurred mainly as described bv Captain Rickman, but that the riianv rumors and reports ,it other outrages were much exaggerated and in mam eases utterly false. We learn from the Knox-, ilk* Whig that notwithstanding Captain Rick man's explanation, the Governor has ordered his arrest and the arrest of all concerned w ith him, and they w ill be turned ever to the civil authorities to be dealt w ith according to the law and evidence.
