ý IONROB, LA., APRIL 26, 1873. URANT PARISH TROUBLE'. Statement ofa Citi-cn. Over fifty negroes were killed. Their bodie , were lying around the field of action. Previous to the engagement they had entrenched themselves and thoroughly fortified their position. The battle with the people of the ad joining parishesslastcd about four hours. At one time it was most severe. It is believed that there were about ten white men killed and wounded. The whites, before the fight took place, endeavored to avoid bloodshed. They raised a flagof trusee. DMr. Nash, the Sheriff of Grant parish, sent for IL. Allen-a leader of the negroes-and begged him to disperse them. The reply of the latter was they would fight to the last. The white people then gave them an hour for the women and children to re tire from the place of conflict, which they did. Whilst the negroes were in possesion of the town of Colfax, they committed many cruel acts against people of their own color. They sent different bodies of armed men to the plantations throughout the whole parish to compel the negroes to come Into town and as sist the revolutionists in defending the same. When resistance was made the leaders of the mutiny and their follow ers did not hesitate to resort toviolence. Indeed, many of the poor, inoffensive field laborers, were unmercifully beat en. The postmaster of Colfax-one Saul Cuney-a negro, formerly a member of the Legislature, was driven out of the town, and not allowed to attend to the duties of his office. The hostility against him arose from the fact that lie would not assist the negroes in their work of violence. All the negroes who sympathized with the whites were compelled to flce from the parish-their lives were t it reat ened. In the adjoining parish of Itapides the enmity of the negroes against the whites was so great that a war of races seemed to be inevitable. The most difii culties would have occurred there, had it not been for the defeat of the revolu tionists at Colfax. The negroes, since the reduction of this place, have confessed that they hadl a full military organiztion in ilapides. They were prepared to assist their friends in Grant parish. They even gave the name of somne of thei r leaders. Since the fight all the negores belong ing to the plantations in Grant parish have returned to work.-Pieagyule. - BOY WHO FOUND) A HI1ME. The lion. A. l.Stephensi, of tcorgia, in a recent address at a nectingat A\ lex andria, for the benefit of the LorpIhian asylum and free school of that city, re' lated the following anecdote: A poor little boy one cold niight, with no house or roof to shelter his head, no paternal or nlaternal gua:rd ian or guide to protect or direct himt on hiis way, reached at nightflll tihe home of a wealthy planter, who took him in, and fed and lodged him, and sent hiint on his way with 1ie bIlesilig. 'l'These kind attentions chieried his heart :and inspired him with fresh counrage to bat tie with the obstacles of liti*.
