AN ATROCIOUS INCIDENT. Mrs. Mary Beckham, living on the'Mississippi) near Islaad No. 10, writes over her own name a narratiye of the murder of her fiunily by Federal n^ro troops. The following extract includes tha chief facts: ^‘Th« next day I started ap the river, taking the eldest with me as a nurse. Two nights after I left, sover&l white soldiers came and fired into the house, killed the watch do^, and tried to get ic. My husband told them if l^ej forood thean- stiives in, he would shoot- They then went to the negro cabins and said to the negroed that there was money in the honse, and they intended to have it, but fearing the^ might get hurt| they left and went to my fitther’s (Daniel Wat- Bcm’si) who was away from bana. My sMiher aa4 sister were alMO. GRiey knoekM at tlia loor and Mtd ^9 wwated MNMtihing to eat, that no tk«m OQ the porch, and when they got it, they »»i» we do act want anything to eat, we want nioaey. ‘‘They thca tried to push my sister into the hall; the tried to rec>ist them; they then drew their guns; tolil her if she did not give them the money which they said was buried in the cellar, they would shoot her. This she refused to do. They then wcnivto the ccliar and dug it over and re turned, saving they had been misinformed, that there was no money there. They then left, which showed plainly it was money they wanted at my house. On Tuesday morning, about 9 o’clock, August 4, 1863, twelve armed acgro foi- dlcra c:ime to the house, there being no one thore ezocpt my hnsband, fathor-in-law, BenjamiB Beck ham, and four of my children, and some of our family negroes. They rushed on my husband and tied him, took off his watch and pin and rifled his pockets. They then tisd my father-in- law and dragged them to the river (^it being about thirty yards.) They killed my husband on tcp of the bank by shooting him in the head. They then out off his shoulderblade and rolled his body into the river; his clothes looked as if there had been a great struggle. “They then took the old gentleman, stabbed him three times, oucc in the heart, and cut one of his cars off. After throwing his body into tho river, they proceeded back to the house where two of thorn had baen guarding my dear little children. They spoke to my eldefit daughter, Laura, aged fourteen years, telling her to get up andiollow her damned old daddy, at the same Ume presenting a pistol to her temple. The children then were driven to tho water’s edge, where their father and grandfather had been murdered, and thcTi they were put to death in the most cruel manner. “The youngest, Richard, aged two and a half years, wrs thrown into the wa^er alive. Laura jumped in and attempted to rescue him, and whilst, in th>* water, waist deep, begging for mercy, she was knocked on the head with the butt end of a gaa, en^.irelv separating her fore head, and then stabbed in tho side. Kate Ida, eleven years of age, was then disposed of. She was tc'.to’i wlv.1 tcuos uatU her head and should* r*T9 ^er9 ponww^BOi*, »»o« wM»»y »••• wuibwH mtl over.

After they had murder- -d thoui i'll fiad thrown their bodies i^to the “ircr, they rt^turc d to the house, taking every- thiug valrtbie and all the clothing they could carry. “Then they started for Island No. 10, think- lag or kr»owi i!» thoy wouii] be protected if they r?aohe-i fh-'-r.' iu s»faty.

Wil liams that Wilder’s “Lightning” Brigade of regu lar cavalry were sloshing ab}ut in tho swamp in his front with a view to ascertaining whether or cot the dense swb.mp growth waa inhabited by the pej,tiferous rebels. Old “Cerro Gordo” im mediate iy di^moaored about one hundred of h ia men, and moving them lor«?ard, placed theia in ambujh to rcocive the visitors. Strict sil*,noe was eojoincd, aud caoh man stood grasping his tmsty rifle and fairly itching for tho opportunity to use it. Nor had they long to wait, for in a few minutes the he&d of tho column hove in sight, floundering i\nd splashing through the mud, busies »ad wire, until they reached the end of the line, whet, a iit.lt wa. callcd. Tbe scene was ludicrous in the extreme; terrible oaths, Teuto nic, Celtic anu Jiiisocgcnotic^ were freely vented upon tue d—d t mntry, mingled with cries, I “ivumo out of la' s^aicp, Jonnie Reb.

That cry was “fire,” and the next moment about forty of tho?e who had so lately abused mother earth, were lying calmly up . n her breast, and others writhiDjj; in pain, whilst on every side their valiant comrades could be he%rd rushing throngh swamp and morass p^ll mell ia iltate ot IVorth Carolina, ROBiSSON COUNY.
