acts upon the people OF the South and
upon the whole country.
We have said, and we repeat, that We
desire peace; but the policy now pro-
posed cannot give US peace. It Is con-
trary to the voice of reason and the law
of nature. Instead Of peace, under the
reconstruction acts, we shall have strife
and bitterness. Instead Of the South
recovering from her poverty, and con-
tributing her share to the com mon
wealth and prosperity Of the country,
she will become more and more impov-
erished. The blight Of misrule will cut
short her harvests and dry up her re-
sources. The law Of violence, which has
prevailed for more than two years In
reconstructed Tennessee, will extend its
sway throughout the entire South, and
we shall reap, Ike her, the harvest OF
crime and blood multiplied two-fold.
We have shown that free negro labor,
under the sudden emancipation policy OF
the Government, is q disaster from
which, under the most favorable circum-
stances, IL will require years TO recover.
Add to this the policy which the recon-
struetion acts propose to enforce, and
YOU place the South, politically and so
ciaIly. under the heel Of the negro these
Influences combined would drag to hope
less ruin the most prosperous community
in the world. What do these reconstruc-
ton acts propose ? Not negro equality
merely; but negro supremacy. In the
name, then, of humanity to both races,
in the name OF citizenship under the
COnstitution--in the name of a common
history in the past-in the name OF our
AnglO-Saxon race and blOod-in the
name Of the civilization Of the nine
teenth century-in the name OF magma
nimity and the noble instincts of man
hOod-in the name of God and nature,
we protest against these acts as destruc-
tive to the peace Of society, the prosperity
of the country and the greatness and
grandeur of our common future.
The people OF the South are pOwerless
to avert the impending ruin. We have
been overcome, and the responsibility to
posterity and to the world has passed
into other hands.

ERUPTION OF VEsUVIUs.
Magnificent Spectacle.


NAPLES, November 14.-Mount We
suvius, on the east side of the Bay ol
Naples, is In volcanic action, and send.
ing forth pillar of fire, which has Q
magnificent effect as seen from the city
New craters have been formed, and the
usual point Of issue-in latitude 40. As
north and longitude IA 26 east-is alsc
engaged.
During the past night red hot stones
were elected in large quantities from the
burning mountain.
The surrounding earth is in tremulOus
motion for a considerable distance; the
lava is pouring forth and running down
the sides Of the mountain in volume and
with rapid flow, and the general up
heaving from the volcano gives warning
of a grand, unusually grand eruption
from which we may look for very serious
consequences, as in former years Of the
more remarkable phenomena from Vesu.
Yius.
The first eruption of the more serious
kind from Mount Vesuvius occurred in
the year IS, when the elder Piiny per-
ished, and the then vast cities Of Hercu-
leneum, POmpeii, and Stabig were over
whelmed by the burning torrent and
buried in lava and ashes thrown from
the crater. FOrty-nine eruptious of We
suvius occurred from that disastrous
period to the year 1850, Of which the most
celebrated in history took place in the
years Az, 1873, 1894, 1919, 1884, and 1899.

OTHER DISASTERS.
Further Particulars Concerning the
Effect of the Late Hurricane at ST.
Thomas.

WASHINGTON, November IA. - The
State Department has received from Lu-
cius A. Very, United States Vice Com
meTcial Agent at MatsmOrOs, a letter
dated October 18th, giving an account Of
the tornado which passed over that city
and vicinity on the night Of the 9Th and
Sth instant. He states
The amount of losses at MatamorOs
cannot yet be computed. Five millions
Of dollars would be a low estimate at
least Six hundred houses have been
destroyed, including many valuable
warehouses containing large stecks Of
goods. So far as heard from, all the
ranches are thrown down for thirty miles
around MatamOros. At the mouth Of
the river the destruction was great /;
scarcely a house is left standing. All the
river steamers were wrecked or disabled,
except the TamauIipss No. ., which was
still servicable. Considering the great
destruction of buildings, the number Of
casualties is not great, probably twenty
killed and forty or fifty more or less in
jured.
Brownsville suffered equally with Mat
amoros, very few buildings being left un-
injured. Much suffering, the CONNER
cial says, must necessarily follow this
terrible disaster, when so many are left
without a shelter, and all their property
destroyed.
