Eighteen negroes, it is said, cabin boys, deckhands, and chambermaids, iound on the captured Federal transports, Were murdered in the most shocking ma: Many ot them, it is represented, were ti taken to an open field near the Shoals, and de- liberately shot down tn cold blood. Two of the negro servants on the Slidell got in be- tween the wheel and stern of the bot and let themselves down into the water, holding on to the rudder. They were discovered by the re- bels, and several soldiers were ordered into a skiff, and, rowing close up to the unfortanate negroes, discharged the contents of their mas- kets at them, literally blowing their heads inw atoms. The life of the chambermaid of the Trio was saved by Mr. Hurley, the elurk, claiming her as his slave, whom he was removine to Kea tucky.
