Confederate A Negro A negro man, belonging to Mrs Ligon, who resides in the nth District of fhis county, was jmtig at Kingston on last Thursday, for planner nnd endeavoring to incite an insurrection. Tic was tried by a committee of twelve citizens, and the evidence was considerd" sufficiently conclusive as to Ins guilt to warrant Ins conviction and execution. According to his own statements, it was one of the inost diabolical schemes ever devised by any fiend to murder tho citizens of this county, ajid take possession of their property. A white man by the name of Underwood was implicated in the plot, lie is now in jail, committed oit a charge of treason. Several other negroes Were implicated, but WO have not learned the precise nature of the evidence ad duced against them.

When such conspiracies as these arc detected our citizens cannot be too Vigitent in watching the action of the negroes and mean white men. Cassville Standard, VUh Beauregard Dead.
