BECOMING ALARMED.-The late Rebels
are growing alarmed. There is ''skele.
ton In the house" Alabama, Georgia and
South Carolina papers are filled with vague
hints Of possible negro massacres. There
seems to be general fear that Sambo will
arise and desolste the land with fre and
sword. Perhaps there is a spark Of consci-
enco In this horror. Long years of oppres-
sion and outrage might produce such fruit.
BIT the negro is patient. He will not strike
his former master unless the master strives
70 throttle him. 1.-THE whites seek to force
him from one system of bondage to ano-
ther; ifthey combine 10 drive him from home,
deprive him OF labor, outrage his vile
and starve his children; If they assume 10
treat him as an outcast and pariah, who,
having no rights, lie entitled to no protec-
ton, then even his meek and passive spirit
may be aroused to dreadful deeds. There
10 no danger of negro uprising where
the negro has not been subjected TO such
Infamous treatment as human nature can
not endure. Every attempt will be made
10 prove the black incapable OF selfgov-
ernment by making him 80: to infame the
public with falsehoods respecting his char
acter and habits, aud thus to prolong that
prejudice under which he has suffered 30
fearfully In the pasG. 1t Is our duty to see
that the freedmen Of the South are not
made the victim of such aggressions as
will force them to resistance as the only
alternative OF humiliation. A negro mas
sacre would serve as a convenient pretcxt
for partisan purposes, just as of old the
agents Of Spanish authority used to incite
the Indlans to deeds Of violence, that they
might proclaim determination against
them. The heartless scheme which would
gain possible advantage TO the clique al
the expense of social anarchy and blood
shed, must not and will not be permitted
10 succeed.
