! 1885, August i. "Beaues Of Siap1y.-When a
mob burnt down tic Charleston Convent, they told
us at the South il was all owing to free suffrage,
and our not having slaves; and Gov. McDufie said +,
in his message, that there could be no freedom with
out slavery. The southern papers have never ceased
to taunt with our lawless mobs, and tell our
aristocrac that they have no refuge from anarchy
bat in monarchy. The tables are now turned.
Mobs of the most borrid and bloody kind now
prevailing at the South, the very offspring of the
slavery without which, Governor McDutfie tells
US, there cen be hbuty. Our mobs never end
in boodshed. The mobs at the South always take
| life. The recent scene at Vicksburg has never
been exceeded in outrage upon law since the mob
at Edinburgh hanged Captain Portcus. We sub
join sample Of what mobs at the South'are doing
Their maieftes decree that all the itnere preach
ers, doctors, clock podlars, and gamblers in
stigntors Of slave instructions, and If they can fog
a negro into naming any white man, he ia seized
and hung by the mob. The next thing will be,
that every citizen Of free State, found south of the
Potomac, will be hung by Lynchslaw. Governor
McDufhe will please us from bis notions of
a free government"
