Tb.9 exodus of negroes following the burning to death by tbe mob of the condemned murderers, Cato and Keed, continues. Tbe terrible pun ishment met td rut to the slayers of Henry Hedges and hi family has made a profound imprestion on the negroes, and - all of them are frightened, notwithstanding tbat there is no desire to harm tbe bet ter cIbbs of the colored people. In rare instances irresponsible .bands of Marauders have acted, without reference to the characterof tbe ne groes attacked, as in the case of old man Roberts and his eon, but these acts are deprecated by all. Roberts bas lived seventy jeara in this com munity, and commands the respect of every good citizen. " . The fleeing of the negroes threat ens a shortage of labor in the cot ton fields, where cotton picking is soon to commence. Reports from the country herea bouts tell of various whippings of disreputable negroes, and of the in tention the people to clear Ballcck county of them. There are also stories of the shooting of negroes, bat none of these is substantiated.

" Handy Bell, implicated by Reed as a ringleader in the murders, was seen today in the voods in the rear of a distillery about five miles from here. J. A. McDougal, owner of the distillery ,-who found him aim- t4ely wandering about, asked him what he thought of tbe burning of R ed and .Cato. He said that they b"ould have been burufd. McDou t 1 permitted him to go acd he -truck across the country. rbe negro shot yesterdsy 'by a pse that thought him to be Han is v bell has not been identified. The officers of the local military c mpany are preparing to send their resignations to the GovernorLaa'd ing citizens are endeavoring to dis sudetbem from this intention. An officer declared that the members of thejeompany were required to give up loaded cartridges issued, and that otber and similar cart ridges were iecued to fewer . than half a dozen soldiers. 'He said that orders were given that there should be no firing. The local men lay tbe blame on tbe efficer in command. Captain Hitch, of the Savannah company. It is not denied that the mob with the two negroes on the way to the stake passed within a few yards of the soldiers stationed about the jail, and that these soldiers could have rescued the negroes.
