   A number of negroes in the vicinity of Lagrange, lately had their preparations completed for a trip to Mexico. They were provided with guns, ammunition, etc., to force their way through any opposition which they might encounter. Fortunately they were detected in time to have their contemplated stampede effectually arrested.
