n 7 EEE THE SOAFFOLD. Another Negro Hanged for Outraging a White Woman. Disgusting Details of the Crime—Deserip- tions ef the Fiend and His Helpless Victim. RocksGuaM, Rickmond Comty, N. o) ¢ June 2, 1871. Inthe presence of about thirty witnesses—com- prising citinens, State officials and members of the press—-Ned McLendon to-day exptated, with bis life, ‘the crime of rape, commitred pearly twelve Monts @zo on the person of a WHITE MARRIED WOMAN, mamed Sallie L. Usher. Sad though It be te in, ‘this is one of the crimes to which the negroes have ‘ecome addicted since their emancipation. They do MOL hesitate, when opportunity offers and there is itule fear of detection, to gratify, by force, their Drntal passions on the persons of white females, though retribution, sure but often swift, follows the perpetration of such a hideous and revolting out- ‘rage. And it might here be remarked, by way of parenthesis, that if there ts one cause more than another to which can ve attri- buted te aliegeé Ku Klux outrages in this and many of the other Southern States, 1t 1s this propensity of the negro, despite the frightful exam- pies before bi, 10 violate the persons of white women. But few of these horrible crimes are ever allowed to await the tedious, Liough certain, course of jaw. Vengeance is sure to follow im the fovisteps of the act, and a brother, father, hasband, ally wipes or a combined indignant populace, usi out WITH BLOOD ural outrage on female virtue. In nume- rons imstences, where negroes have been she Ranged, or otherwise Ku Kiuxed, in this State par- ticularly, the primitive causes can pe directly traced to indignities om i to or outrages perpetrated upon white females, about which nothing ever ap- pears in the public prints; and these are wen paraded before the Northern peopl as evidences of a rebellious sp on the part of the South. This is 1 fudge; for, notwithstanding the speech of Mr. Jefferson Davis at Auanta, nine-tenths of the Southern people do “accept the situation,” and a majority of the growing generation deeply regret that he should have given such serious concern as to their future course, ‘This digression [rom the subject matter of my report I hope will be excused.

A WHOLE TOWNSHIP ON FIRE JERSEY, NEW A correspondent of the Tom's River Cowiier writes as follows: — Some days ago, as the workmen on the Tuckerton Raliway were burning brush on the track near where it crosses Oyster creek branch it got beyond their control and caught in the cedar swamp. It was very dry and the wind was blowing fresh from the south and west, and it sent the lames down on the village of Waretown ata fearful rate, The men collected together as soon as possible and did all they could to stay its progress, But little coula be done against the main Portion of the flames, which soon reached the Tom’s River and Watertown Ratiroad, witch deadened it a litte, but it went on, crossing the main shore road and then on down to the meadows, Women javored as well as the men, and tt was only by the hardest ‘abor that Mr. Camburo’s and Mr. ayre’s houses were saved; by wetting the roofs the sparks and cinders would not ignite, [t burot Nathaniel Camb rn’s property almost eutirely over and hits loss will be heavy. The siue fre came down “nd crossed Mill Branch by the west side of Birdsall & Co.'s cranberry bog, and was subdacd on the up- Jand, Which stopped it trom entering the viliage. The destruction of property has veen immense. Oyster creek swamp has been swept clean trom the Waiting Railroad to the main shore road. ‘The loss will be large, as there was a heavy growth of cedar on it. A number of families removed their beds and valuables to the fields and buried them. fhe danger seems to have swept past us nov, and, alchougn auch damage has been done, ali are very thankful thatsuch a kind Providence has kept us from a more trying and dangerous ume, after the fire left the precincts of Watretown it burned rapidly over the valuable cedar swamps of Oyster creek, sparing nothing 1p its destructive march. The large tracis of jands belonging to Messrs. John Rutherford, Rutherford Stuyvesant, D. H. Tichenor and tne estate of A. Kusseli were thor- oughly burned over, leaving barely an acre un- touched. The vast woods between Waretown and Forked river are nearly all destroved. One would have thought that Forked river would bave stopped the ravages of the flend, but it-sped north of that stream, apd raged on the Bird Ifill Vineyard and Factory Branch. The Vineyard was not imjured. On sped the insatiate demon, crossing Cedar creek to the eastward of Double Trouble, burning about a mile to the nortn of Cedar creek, over lands of George Giberson and fhomas Hooper, when the wind shiited, and away rolled the volume of fire and smoke to the eastward, on both sides of the stream, towards the village of Cedar creek. By great exer: tions the entire village was preset ved from desiruc- hon. North of Cedar creek the tire jumped the turn- pike and struck in the swamp eastward and ran to the bay, Where the water stopped Its ravages in that direction, But the work of destruction was not yet Nuisied. The fre worked up north, with the turn- pike, until near the house Of Mr. Job Platt, when its further progress Was stopped. Through this fire over 40,000 acres of fine thrifty timber and cedar swamps have been destroyed, the Joss cannot be estimaied in dollars aud Probably it would not tall much stort of $1 and we are satisiied that $200,000 would n the entire loss of timber. But the timber alton the only loss fires upon the soil does not benefit 1t in the least. Jt would seem to draw the very life of the ground row it, and leaves it for years a barren waste in- deed. Many narrow escapes from house burning and deatn are told us, the lire in many cases atmost out+ iripping the fleetest runner or fastest horse; bat no buildings of account were burned, 80 far a8 we can learn by travelliug over the iminense waste, ‘rhe conflagration lasted from Tuesday morning until Saturday morning. The waves of dre, as they surged back and forth amid the resinous pines and cedars, roaring and crackling like mad, involon- larily called one’s thoughts to the day of doom, when the world willbe destroyed. The sight was Magnitivent, but awtully suggesilve, as the broad billow, some five miles wide, Was sending forth im- mense pillars of cloud by day and fire by night reaching upward ott Jost to sight in tae air above, All along the turnpikes and roads the peopis turned out to figut the fire. Men journeying on busiuess bitched their teams by the wayside and went, with ail their manhood, to do battle with the common enemy. We do not know of a solitary skulker; Were there one our shoremen would invite him to “git with ali possible speed from their midst. Where ail did so well it would be unfair to particularize individual tnstances of bravery and daring heroisin, Which were numerous, At ‘Cedar creek, while the men were away ftigining the fre, the ladies and children at home filied their tubs, barrels and pails with water, not Knowing how soon they would be wanted for the protection of their own homes; but fortunately they were not wanted. In some cases goods were ‘moved from houses and stores in ex, eclalion of & Visit from the fire, 13 not the burning of such inieusely uot DEATH FROM SUNSTROKE IH TRENTON, A teainster, named Hamilton Burchell, who had been in the employ of the Trenton (N, J.)
