One of Senator WILSON'S constituents
and followers, named HAYWARD, was
arrested, in Richmond recently, for in
citing the negroes to riot and bloodshed
by pnblicly advising. them that upon

Revolutions Never 70 Backward.
"Revolutions and Reforms never go
backward pomponsly exclaimed a
pnlpit orator the other evening, rub
bing his hands and swelling with the i'm
portanee and gleSlof his theme. Well.
we have had few years of revolution
and reform, and the GLORIOUS
"heavenly" mile posts are getting quite
numerous and pleasant-fOr some peo-
ple-to look upon. Let us count a few
of them to see how we are getting, on
in the journey:
The Lancaster IRtelligencer says:
mo one can glance over the the col
umns of any daily paper published in
the North without being convinced that
q carnival of crime is prevailing among,
us. The most horrible murders; the
most revolving rspes; sednctions with
out number; elopements of faithless
wives innumerable; divorce cases of the
most disgusting character; open and
shameless adulteries; the beating, starry
Ffng, manning land numbering of chill
dren; parricides; infaDticides, and crimes
nameless and numberless, crowd the
columns of our newspapers. Gamblers,
burglafsIsyipdlers, professional thieves,
pickpockets and prostitutes make up
considerable proportion of the ponnia-
tion of our cities. There is prevalent
laxity of morality, a disregard of honor
q departure from decency, an abandon
ment of the virtues and prevalency of
all the vices, which is positively alarm-
ing. Never was crime so universal, SO
bold in its demeanOr, so successful and
so little liable to punishment, as with
us in these degenerate days.
This condition of affairs is no doubt
partly the direct effect of the war, which
has bequeathed to us an army of Grim
inals. But there is another cause which
we are sure is most potent and perni-
cious. The example set by Radical
members of Congress, Legislators, and
other officials, (don'ts forget the Stump
clergymen,) has had most deleterious
influence. When it is well known that
Congressman, Senators of the United
States, members Of State Legislatures,
and others high in the ranks of pretend
cd loyalty, take bribes and steal, is it to
be wondered at that some men should
be found ready to commit murder for
money, or that thieves, burglars, swim
dlers and pickpockets should swarm
throughout the cOuntrys When the
gamblers and keepers of houses of pros
titution grow rich off the ill-gotten
gains of Congre ,smen and Legislators,
is it strange that others should be
drawn into the vieiuns circle of their
influenced When scarcely a week passes
without the exposure Of the libidinous
rascality Of some preacher, is it strange
that adulterers and seducers of female
innocence should abound: To the dom.
inant faction in the North, the God
and morality" party, and to the per-
nicious example set by its corrupt lead
ers, is large proportion of the crime in
the country to he directly traced. The
fountains Of public morality have been
corrupted by these men, and the terrible
condition of affairs which now prevails
is the legitimate fruit Of seed sowu by
them.'

The trouble at ihe late Radical meet
ing IN Mobile will be. haileda as perfect
I.od send 10y the Radical press and par
". la .pite of studied and constant
Misrepresentation, the opinion was'be-
coming universal that the Southern peo-
pie were faithful and exemplary in their
observance at order and obedience to
law The Mobile riot will Of cOmse be
rxaggprattA.- distorted and used to re-
move all good opinions of Southern so
cicty and infiame, the entire North
against the Southern people. This
will hr done preparatory To con-
hscation. which the Radical lead
rrs are 81 intent upon inaugnrating.
While we are being entertained with
alarming accounts Of disorder among
the whites of the lately .rebellious sec
tion, it will be- we'll not to ignore the
ronduct of the blacks, nor to overlook
the agencies now employed to make
them discontented and riotOus.
The Southern negro is an apt scholar,
and learns with facility the new doc
iIine taught by WILSON and KELLEY,
And what is more. lir insists upon Civ
ing practical demonst rations of his apti-
lude. On Saturday night there occur
red in Richmond disgraceful riot, the
second of the WILSON series, in
which pistols, brickbats and Clubs
were used and "a number of
the police severely injured. The ar
rest Of a drunken negro was the Of
fense of The police. Whiis this was GO
ing on in one quarter, another similar
disturbance took place in another part
Of the city, which was quefed, we are
requested to believe, through "the per-
.uasion of a colored juryman."
These riotOus demonstrations are
alarming indications ofthel DIRECTION
IN which the negro mind IS tending nm
der the guidance Of WILSON, KELLEY
and others And what other result
could be expected when the blacks are
daily taught that the white man is
their enemy, and that the exercise of
white authority-unless il is military
suthorityrris ldespotism. While the
best men of the South are exerting their
influence to convince the negroes that
their late masters are not their enemies,
andthat tke Nj ishest Interest and duty
Of both is to maintain relations of
friendship and confidence between each
ether, these ,itinsrsnt ,snisssries of
Northern dsstrnetfves are nentralizing
all their efforts, and sowing the seeds
OF bloody war Of castles. The whites
have met the negroes more than half
way, aud extended the olive branch of
peace and good will: and had it not
been for the. counter. Effort Of the un-
prineipled men who sre now stufsping

Some six months since quiet gentle
man named Smith Wilson visited Mem
phis with the view of looking at the
country around, and if pleased, he ex-
pected to purchase farm somewhere
in the vicinity, settle thereon and en-
gage in agricultural pursuits. After
some weeks spent in examining the
surrounding country he finally selected
a place some two miles south of Ger
mantown and eighteen from this city,
as one answering his requirements.
The house properly arranged for their
reception, the family We're sent for, and
in due time sarrived and we're soeh CON-
fortably domiciled in their new home,
where they likewise went busily to
work improving their place and prepar-
inc the farm for u CROP LII u 4 j
Some weeks ago Mr.. Wilson missed a
quantity offeed from his stables, and
not liking to furnish other peoples
stock without remuneration, he went IN
search OF his missing forage. Obtain
ing q search warrant, and in company
with an officer of the law, he proceeded
to search the premises of suspected par
ties. He was successful in Identifying
certain articles as belonging to himself.
Not caring IL, prosecute the guilty par.
ties, and thinking the exposure would
put stop to further annoyances Of the
kind, Mr.. Wilson decided to let the
matter rest, and not molest them far
ther.
On Wednesday evening Mr.. Wilson
visited and supped with q friend and
neighbor. About eight o'clock In the
evening he started for home, some two
miles distant. Reaching there, Sfely,
but some what fatigued, he sat Hown
near. his window to rest. Mrs. Wilson
came and took a seat near his side.
While quietly engaged in eony yersation,
unconscious Of danger, 1 n shot was Tired
by an unseen assassin, and Mr.. Wilson
fell to the floor, pierced through the
heart by bullet. Mn. Wilson asked il
he was hit. He had only time to reply
''Yes', before he ex pired W Without grOan.
The unseen hand that fired the fatal
bullet had made sure its aim, and ii
had not trembled. Its victim was
launched into eternity without warn
ing, and the tragedy came near being
double one, for the ball passed with
in few inches of Mrs. Wilson, and
barely missed her. As soon as the ex.
citement into which the family had
been so suddenly thrown had settled
and the terrible tragedy was fully real.
lied, steps were taken to discover the
murderer. He had made good his es
cape, but left o mark behind him by
which he can be easily identified and
steps are being taken to secure his ar
rest. According to the marks of hi:
footsteps, lie had stood in the chimney
corner, only few feet from the win
dow on which Mr.. Wilson's elbow was
leaning at the time, and, reaching ont
he placed the pistol within six feft ot
his victim.
