-The Eutaw Whig contains the following: We learn that on the 3d inst., a horrible outrage was committed on the person of a lady living on the borders of Greene and Tuskaloosa counties. The husband of the lady had gone to the polls, and a negro named Henry Leatherwood, about 20 years of age, used this opportunity to accomplish his hellish design. Although vigorous pursuit was carried on, the villian had not been apprehended when last accounts were received.
