porting Coolies to labor on these

The work rnmmeoecd by tho "lato
lamented" Is still progressing. 11 is
jocular prophesy in 1858, of an "irre
pressible conflict" hns boen realised ;
bloody and horrible enough It is truo,
but the bloodiest ground is still not
reached. A war of sections is a mere
bagatelle compared to tha war of
races now being inaugurated by the
Radical leaders. When tho white
man meets the negro and his debauch
ed allies on tho field of conflict, which
will not bo long, then, and not till
then, is there any likelihood of the
"irrcpressihlo ootflict" closing. The
crimes now being perpetrated in "re
constructed loyal Tennessee," show
that tho Rubicon must soon be passed.
The moralizing loyalists seem as crazy

Rend tho testimony taken lrom our
exchanges for tho past week :
KisttviLIB, July 11. A dreadful riot oocurml
at Rogers ville, hast Tennessee, on Tuesday. A
Urge crowd had assembled on the public square,
near the court huuse, to hear Mr. Kthcridge,
the Conservative candidate for Uovernor, sjeak.
Many of the crowd, both Conerrratiree and Radi
cals, were artued with guns aud pistols.
After Ethernlgo had spoken an hour, he was
interrupted by Tom. King, a leading Radical, who
CroBouaeed a statement he made to be a d d lie.
thridge retorted bitterly, when aoBie one shot at
him. Numerous other shots followed in quick
succession, and the crowd broke, the Conservntircs
in one direction and the Radical! in the opposite,
shootiug at each other.
Finally they halted and fired volley after rolley
at each other, for about twenty minutes. One
white Conservative and a colored Radical were
thirty slightly. The wounded were conveyed to a ,
hotel, where tber remain. Etheridge was not ;
hart, and left for Hnai-dley ville after quiet bad been
restored.
A negro is reported to have been killed at K mu
rine, yesterday, fur shouting for Browulow at B
Conservative meeting.
The prompt action of the police pre rented a
riot.
The New York Tribune admits that
this outrage was perpetrated by ne
groes and mean whites, and says that
they should have been quiet lislcucrs,
or huve remained away from tho
meeting.
The following are a few more peb
bles found on tho borders of a revolu
tion :
Lot tsvtl.l.r, Kv., July ?Cth. A special dis
patch to the Cunrier from Nashville, dated yester
day, says that a special dispatch to tha Kashrille
tanner reports a serious Collision at a political
meeting, in Kaoxville last nifht, resulting in the
wounding of two negroes.
General Frank 1. Blair, wbo was addressing a
large Conservative meeting, was frequently inter
rupted in his remarks by negroes, wbo cheered
loudly for "Browulow."
T owards the close of the OrnertJ'l speech a light
commenced, in which eight or ten shuts wore fired,
resulting as above stated.
fin learning the news at tha Colored Church,
two hundred negroes formed fa process ioa, and
were proceeding to tha scene of the disturbance,
when they were met by the agent of the Freed
tnen's Bureau and police, and were persuaded to
desist, thus preventing a bloody hot.
It would scorn from this, that the
Bureau is useful some times but
rather too expensive to be desirable.
Loi isvili I, July Join. A shocking tragedy
occurred near Union City, Odin county, oa Mon
day. A negro man broke jail ia that town nn the
preceding Friday, and repairing ta tha residence
of an aged and respected widow lady named
Cbaram, outrsgi-d Iut person, and then fled. Two
sons of the injured woman followed the wretch to
Hickman, Ky., arrested him, and taking him back
to near tha scene of the outrage, shot him dead,
and then severed his head from his body.
Large numbers of Browulow's militia, white
and black, are continually passing through Nash
ville, an route to different points in Middle and
Western Tennessee, although everything is quiet
there now. Hardware stores are being extensively
patronised, and firearms of every kind are being
largely pun-based by both whites and blacks.

The Itump House, before adjourn
ing, raised several new Smelling Com
mittees. These ComiiMttoes, says the
New York Jrprr, have had the
polypus party power given them,
each of them, to cut up, say, into nine
Committeos, with a Clerk for each, a
Reporter for each, and each can travel

can act only by tho authority
of tho House, and when the House is
not in session, thero is no authority.
Tho expenses of these Committees

It appears that Wilson and Kelley,
the two strolling Mongrel orators,
who went down South to enlighten
tbo people, left Now Orleans without
puying their hotel bill. When they
arrivod there, Sheridan's "Mayor"
Heath gave them a grand reception
in the name of the city, which he bad
just as much right to do as any other
interloper, and run up a bill at the
St. Charles Hotel of ,30-' 05.
By the following article, copied
from the New Orleans Picayune, it
will be aoen that these board bills are
still unpaid. Will the panics inter
ested ia this matter pleas? take notice ?
"The Finance Committee of the
Common Council yesterday received
from acting Mayor Heath, for ap

reception of Senator Harry Wilson, of
MassticiinsetUt, and the Hon. Vt . V.
Kellcy, of l'cnnsylvania, who, during
thoir stay hero, were feasted by his
Honor and other prominent gentle
men. The hospitalities ot the city
were not formally tendered to these
honorable gentlemen, nor wero the
members of tbe Council called upon
to participate in their reception, and
no one imagined for a moment that
tho city would be called upon to pay
the expenses incurred by the gentle

A serious accident, and almost mirac
ulous escape lrom death, took filaco on
Sunday last, as the Cincinnatti Express
was going cast. It occurred about
four miles west of this place, where

Mr. Thomas X. Dale, of the firm of
Thomas X. Dale 4 Co., of 17 Warren1
street, N. Y., wholesale dealers in the
silk and tiimming business, was pas
sing lrom tho sleeping car to another
car, and as he stepped on tho platform
of tho car, tho train running a short
curve, gave a sudden jerk or lurch,
which, with great force, threw him
off the train. He fell in the ditch
besido tho track. His left leg was
fractured at the ankle, and bis whole
body very much bruised. Had he
been thrown a few inches farther lrom
the cars ho would have struck the
high rocks, out of which tho bed of
the road is made, and been doubtless
instantly killed. It is a great wonder
that he escaped as well as ho did, parts
of bis clothing, were torn into shreds,
and could not have been worse rent
if a shell had burst within them. Mr.
Dalo remained where he was thrown
about ono hour and a half, when he

Among the more out spoken of the
mongrel papers in this State, there
seems to bo tpiito a tlisoMition to find
limit with tho proceedings of their
Slato Convention, for not incorporat
ing tho negro suffrage plank in their
platform. In explanation of why it
was left out, the Villaae Record, a lead
ing mongrel journal published at
Weschestor, says:
"The subject was thoroughly discussed by the
eommittee ob reeolutioas, the member of tbe com
mittee from Huoks Bounty making an argument
in lavor ol the adoption ot such a resolution. J hi
expediency of this action, however, was decidedly
opposed by aome of the delegates from the interi
or, who thooght their constituents were aot yet
prtpurid to art las nssic It was suggested that
the subject would at any rate be acted upon by
Congress, aa asm as the pending constitutional
ainouiiinenta would be ratified, and that thn8latcs
themselves would be relieved of the responsibili
ties of fixing the qualifications of citiaeosliip in
this respect. Thus it came about that the suffrage
plank was omitted from our State platform."
Here is a very honost and candid
confession, and ono too that should
open tho eyes of tho thousands of white
men, who havo heretofore been voting
with mongrelism, but have so otlcn
asseried that they will no longer vote
for that party when they aro convinc
ed that it favors negro suffrage It is
not because they aie not iu favor of
negroos votingjtiol because they would
keep the ballot out of their hand, and
presorvo the superiority of the white
man, that their platform says nothing'
about it, but fur the simple reason that
they fear that the masses of their par
ty are not yet quite pcrpared to face the
music; not yet prepared to acknowl
edge Sambo as their equal ; not pre
pared to give cuffeo the reigns of Gov
ernment ; not yet prepared to march
arm in arm to tho ballot box, with
these sweet scented "Amorican citi
zens of African descent" And j-et,
knowing, feeling and acknowledging
that even a majority of thoir own par
ty, together with the hundreds of
thousands of noble democrats through
out the Stale, are bitterly opposed to
this infamous and degrading doctrine,
they have the effrontery to express
the desire that Congress, will "relieve
the Mate of fixing tbo qualifications
of iu citizens," or in other words,
force negro suffrage upon us, in oppo
sition to the w idics of three fourths of
our white voters. It is to accomplish
this that their caudidate for Supreme
Judge ib pledged to mako his decisions
in accordance with tho "wishes of
those electing bitn." And if the white
men of l'cnnsylvania feel that they
"are not ready to faco tho music,"
and march arm in arm to the polls with
an ignorant and degraded race, they
must vote for those who will oppose
any interference by Congress, with
our laws regulating the "qualification
of citizens." Williums, the Black Re
publican nominee for Supremo Judge,

Congress has tho right to make uo- j

Tho Radical perfectionists hayo vi
olently maintained, as a cardinal doc
trine of their creed, that only the loy
al should vote. In accordance with
this dogma all negroes are allowed
the franchise, and no w hite men, un
less they consent to vote the radical
ticket, l'liiiii as this circumstance
should make it, that thoir construc
tion of loyalty means radicalism, a
severer test has recently been ap
plied, and still the the theory holds
good. Among the many men who
left the Federal army to join tho
fortunes of the Confederacy, no oue
made himself more conspicuous than
Gen. Longstreet. No opposition to
tho federal cause was more bitter, no
persistence greater, and no blows
dealt more fiercely than bis. On this
account, he was with tbe rest placed
under the ban of federal displeasure,
and there bo might havo remained
forever. But, by one of theso carious
transmutations which the wit of man
can work, Gen. Ixmgstrcet, the sturdy
reliel, has been enabled to deliver him
self of an argument, satisfactory, it is
to be supposed, to himself at least, is
which he shows a decided leaning to
radical tenets; in short a loyal em
brace, of the situation. No sooner is
this known than General Longstreet
becomes a radical pot- No voice is
clearer, no head is wiBcr, no pen is
more logical than bis. He comes
lorth a fit wearer of Senatorial hon
ors, and, if ho will accept, no doubt
receive them. Now, there can be no
question thut Gen. Longslreet's sin
was as great as Gen. Lee's or Gen.
Boauregard's or any other man in the
South. It is impossible that ho can
purge himself of all sin in an instant
This tho Radicals well know. Their
willingness, therefore, to receive bim,
and to exclude all who unlike bim re

convicted and sentenced to be hung,
for the mm tier of old Mrs. McIonnld.
wants to know why Gov. Geary do
lays action in his case. Ho says: "It
" is d d litilo difference to me
" whether 1 am hanged or not," but
be WOUld like to know ' What the h 11
"is the reason one thine or the other
. n
IS not done.
The Ilrookville Herald says: 'The
institution he is confined In is rather
an airy, Tcnlilnted buildinp;, and jri
oners have frequently been known to
leak out For the safe keeping of
Chase, it has boon necessary to employ,
at tho expense of the county, a guard t
of four men, who take turns in keep
ing a strict watch over bim. He was
convicted of murder in tho first degree
in May last, and sentenced to the ex
treme penalty due his awful crime,
Chat ol murdering, for gain, an old,
grey haired, defenceless woman ol
eighty years. Why docs Got. Geary
delay action in this case J We are riot
blood-thirsty, and do not clamor for
this unfortunate, wretched man's life,
but wo do aar that cither his death
warrant should bo sent on, and an
early day fixed for the execution, or
if any injustice has been done him, let
him go, thns ending the prisoner's
suspense and the county's expense."
Since the above was in type we
learn that Gev. Geary has signed his
death warrant and fixed the -th of
August for his execution.
A clerical gonUeman observes that
dancing has a tcudoncy to "shrivel

The Black Republican journals gen

Philip uf Vacediiu was importuned
