lSheyi6-Yhe Anti-Remtos IN 4rms


Another outbreak of the anti-renters has taken
place in this county AT IL O'Clock to-day, a sale
tor the rent of Moses Earle in Andes, was to take
,lace AT his house, about twelve miles from this vii
age. Sheriff Moore and deputies ] ~ Steele and
Edeerton. were about bringing out some cattle for
sale Mr.. Wright attended as the agent for the
landlord. About 100 persons disguised as Indians
appeared to prevent the sale. When Steele and
Edgerton, with Wright between them, were about
passing INTO the field, the Indians with their horr-
Die yelIs attempted TO stop them and finally an order
was given by the chief 10 fire. Edgerton's horse
was Killed under him. Steee's horse remarkably
noble animal, being wounded, plunged into
the midst of the Indians and fell-Steele
himself wounded by two balls in the abb
domen, fell to the ground. The Indians fled.
How dangerous the wounds of Mr. Steele are is
vet unknown here Two physicians were lmme-
dately in attendance. A messenger arrived here
some two hours since, and all Is commotlon.-
Mrs Steele, the wife OF the wounded officer, with
suitable attendants, and the village physicians and
some of the civil officers have gone to the scene of
action.


Il is probable, however, that no other immediate
act of hostility will occur The proper authorities
here presume, will be prompt and most energetic
IN the performance OF their duty.


What renders this occurrence peculiarly aggra-
vatinp is that the officers did not summon posse
IN consequence ol the assurance OF Gen. Root, Mr.
Gordon, M. c. and others, who have been insru-
menta in fumenting these disturbances that there
would be no difficulties.
