The ReiRu of


One of the teachers for colored schools
sent from Chicago, for whose veracity the
Secretary Of the Northwestern Freedmen's
Aid Commission vouches, has written a
letter, dated at Mobile, from which the
New York Tribune publishes the follow
ing account Of the reign of horror in
| Alabama:
A meeting was held here last night, be-
fore which statements were made as to
the treatment of colored by white people,
in the interior of the State, which would
make you sick of life. One hundred and
thirty three dead bodies were counted in
the woods; five bodies were seen floating
in the river. Two white men were seen
to pull a negro across a log and cut his
head off with m axe. Women and chill
dren were killed, and then boxed up and
throwed into the river. A woman was
killed by q white man, and burial refused
by him to her relatives. For a black man
to be seen with grcenbacks3 in his possess
sion, is death. CoIored people are hiding
in the woods, living on berries, fruit, etc.,
to escape the fury of their former masters.
These statements were made by intelligent,
candid colored men, before an audience Of
several hundred last night.
In Mobile. through the connivance Of
somebody, churches and negro houses IRE
burned, women set to work cleaning the
streets, men and women arrested in bed
and taken to the guard house. fined or
sent to the work house, etc. Last night
there was a heavy fire, in which three or
four squares, mostly of negro quarters,
were burned. Men were heard to say
that before they were done they would
burn every negro quarter and school
house in Mobile. These things might be
remedied,

In A FEyER.-The Humboldt Register
is terribly exercised about the question OF
extending the right of suffrage to negroes
in this State, and says tina, it (the Regis
.cr) is the only paper in the State that
has taken grounds against bestowing the
elective franchise upon the negro" in this
State. II there is one newspaper in all
the State of Nevada which favOrs it, we
certainly do not know It's name. The
Gold Hill News certainly is opposed 10
it. We guess the State Constitution does
no, need altering at present. The Register
has worked itself into about as egotistical
a fever as the quarto up in Virginia-over
the hill.

Lo! THE Poor ISDIAN.-We copy the
following from the St. Joseph Morning
Herald of the 18th. Harsh as the pro-
posed measure is, it is undoubtedly the
settled conviction of the inhabitants of the
frontier that their safety depends upon the
virtual determination of the Indians of the
Plains {:
There are now about $4,000 cavalry at
Fort Larned, preparatory to a grand hunt
after the predatory redskins, who have
been so long the terror of emigrants on
the Plains. We do not imagine these
rraitorous savages will be favored with
any more treaties or amnesties soon, for
some of our Washington officials have
been very near the ~rascals and had an OPP
~portunity to see how they transact bust
ness. Every settler on the borders and
emigrant on the Plains will join with us
in an earnest prayer that no more leniency
be exercised toward the brutes, but that
they will be driven away and broken up
to their complete disability.

SOUTHERN

According to the proceedings Of a pub
lie meeting held in Richmond, Va, re-
Gently, the people Of that city are indig-
nant at the manner in which their conduct
is regarded at the North. They claim
that their fidelity to the Union is ques-
toned, that their loyalty is not accepted
as the pure metal, and that they are re-
garded as having much Of the old leaven
of hostility to the Government still re-
naming in their composition. The tone
of the said resolutions is exactly in &C
cordance with that Of nearly the whole
Southern press. All the journals that
have not been started under Northern au-
spices are serving up elaborate articles to
prove that the South has really returned
to the Union like the prodigal-repentant,
humbled and with the most estimahle reso-
lutions for future conduct. All this IS
unnecessary, and the recommendation OF
the Richmond people, that other cities
shall follow them in public avowals OF
their Unionism, is not at all important.
They are certainly correct in the belief
that the Northern people do not place i'm
plicis confidence in their professions, and
they need not expect to disabuse the pub
lie mind Of this opinion BY ostentatious
resolutions and speeches. The North does
not demand too much. II is willing to
give the South the utmost credit for every
action calculated to restore harmony and
good feeling. but it cannot be blind to
such events as the late Richmond election,
and the general evidences of malevolence
and spite that are constantly visible in the
conduct of the late rebels. II the Rich
mond people will give a few practical ex-
amples. of their good intentions, and de-
vote less time to attempted expositions of
their views, upon paper, their honesty Of
purpose will not long be questioned. And
we would also suggest to them that the
pettishness which characterizes the resolu-
tons referred to might be pro6tably omit
ted. The Northern people are a practical
class, and while they are willing to give
to resolutions and speeches all the import
ance they merit, they prefer to judge Of
men by the Scriptural standard "by
their works shall ye know them"

SAMpo IN A LITERARY POINT OF VIEW.
The Charlottesville, Va, Chronicle gives
the following humorous account of the
craving of the colored population for
learning
Charlottesville is fairly entitled to be
called the literary center of the South.
There is, first, the University Of Virginia,
with its learned professors on all sorts of
subjects. Then we have two large Female
Seminaries, where young ladies learn thir-
ty or forty things ending in -ology.
And then the whole colored population
of all sexes and ages is repeating from
morning to night a-b-ab, e-b-eb, lib
ID, c-a-t-cat, d-o-g-dog, c-u-t-cut,
etc., through all the varities of the first
lessons in photography. There are some
four or five colored schools, and little ne.
gro chaps darken every door with primers
in their hands. II WI pass a blacksmith
shop, we hear a-b-ab; if we peep into a
snoemaker's shop, it is a-b-ab; if we
pass by a negro cabin in the suburbs of
the town, we hear the sound a-b-ab; if
the cook goes out to suckle her infant, it
is a-b-ab; the dining room servant
washes up his dishes and plates, crying
a-b-ab; the hostler curries his horse,
repeating a-b-ab; Jerry blacks your
boots, saying with rapid strokes, a-b-ab;
the air Is resonant with a-b-ab. The

derfully, and try to cork them. In a

MANIA FOR LYING.-That inflated blad-
der, the Enterprise, has q species of Mono
mania for telling falsehoods. Judge
North has just convicted it of lying about
him. Recently, it exercised its propensity
of lying about som of the County Com
missioners-and to-day stands convicted
before the public of the crime. Its last
effort at lying has been about its circula-
ton of papers-and willful lying regarding
that Of its neighbors. The Enterprise is
running crazy with lies. But, it is nearly
played out.

SMALL PoTAroRs.-The Enterprise try
ing to gull the people with false figures
about Its circulation. A newspaper that
will resort to such "small potatoes" to
impose itself upon the public in a false
light, must be bankrupt-and Gin the

cratic phrase) it will pay off an honest
debt in oreenbacks.

DEATH BY A RArrLgsNAKE BIrE.-T The

OEhIH UI n w @'~
Deseret Ne,o, of September 18th says:
A child. daughter of William and Mary
Barton. of Beaver, named Rachel, q little
over wv years old, was bitten by a rattle
snake. on the l4th ult., while playing by a
log of wood under which the snake was
concealed. 1t thrust its head from under
the log and struck her twice on the foot,
but the parents, when they heard her
scream, thought she had only been
scratched by the rough end Of the log,
until the foot began to swell, when, upon
search being made, the snake was found.
Remedies were applied, but without avail.
Three hours after being bitten the foot
commenced to mortify, and in forty-eight
hours the child was a corpse.

The JEcKER CLAIMS AMI MAMMALIAN.
Everybody is cognizant Of the fact that
Macmillan, a German prince, has within
q year or two past, by the aid Of French
bayonets and swords. been placed upon a
throne in Mexico, to supersede the Next
can Republic. But everybody is not
fully appraised of the pretexts by which
this subversion Of a Republic, and at
tempted establishment Of an Empire upon
its ruins. nave been brought about. The
whole affair seems to have had its origin
in the " almighty dollar" and the people
of Mexico to have been mere passive spec
tators, while the Mexican jeff. Davis and
his Shylock took the initiative, and Ma
poleon Ill OPPORTUNITY "intervened," as
he was inclined to do in the affairs of our
Uncle Samuel, provided Queen Victoria
would lend her puppy's paw to handle
the hot chcstnuts. As the history of the
origin of affairs out of which have grown
the present anomalous condition of a
neighboring nation can not but be inter-
esting to the reader, we give the statement
as furnished by a contemporary:
THE JEcxER CLArMs.-These were the
claims against the Mexican Republic which
were used as a pretext for French occupa-
ton, and the establishment Of Maximilian's
shaky empire. They are thus described
by an English writer: The Mexican
President. Miramon, q few months before
his fall, obtained a loan from a MIR. Jecker,
a banker in Mexico, and a Swiss by birth,
of 100000. partly in money and partly
in deprecated paper, for which. as head
of the provisional government, he engaged
to pay Jecker the enormous sum Of
S14,00O.0 900 After the accession of
President Juarez, the Swiss banker came
forward to claim his $4,000, 900, to which
Juarez naturally enough replied: No;
you have played a game and lost your
stake; and you can not expect us to give
you such great profits on money that was
lent to our political adversaries to keep
us out of power" Jecker then got him
self to be recognized as a French subject,
and claimed the intervention Of France.
Part of the consequences we know, but
fear that worse remains behind.
