OUTRAGES IN T LOR I DA

We copy the following communication from the !
fj li ,
Lke City Columbian, of a recent dale :
The deserters, about ona hundre istrong, came up
on list Tuesday night and burned up New Troy, the
county site of Lafayette county. Not a house was
left. They also burned nearly art the houses in the
centre and Southein portions of the county, leaving
only a few, and it is presumed the owners of those
were either concerned or sympathized with tho de
serters. They carried cfT-all the negroes, horses and
males they could get. , They say they did this in ie
venge for the injury thejroops did thtiif,"by burning
up and carrying off their property.
It is a deplorable fact tha, between the operations
of our troops and the deserters, 'Lafayette county is
made a sad wilderness : hundreds of women and
children, rendered destitute" without shelter, food or
p.lM)rn.' . ! -umrftLa p . a 1
