The effects of the labors of Messrs Wilson,
Kelley, Nye, and other radical missionaries
at the south, are seen in the local disturban-
ces which follow in their tracks. There was
no resistance to the laws of congress at the
south the process of reconstruction was
rapidly going on, and all the requirements
made of the people there were being prompt
ly fulfilled. But this was not enough. The
danger was that the south would be recon
structed too soon and be ready to take part
in the next presidential election. The rights
of the negro were fully recognized-meas-
ures for their education and general improve
ment were going forward as fast as the Grip
pied condition of the people would permit
general desire was manifested to obey all
national laws and to perform all duties in
cumbent upon the south as faithful citizens,
when these radical missionaries made their
descent, exasperating one portion OF the
community against another portion, and
kindling fires of domestic discord into in
creased flame. They did not contend that
the blacks were cruelty treated by the whites,
| as formerly. but that the whites were gaining
the favor of the blacks by fiattering them ;
missionaries told the blacks to repel the offer
ed fraternity of the whites as deceptive and
dangerous to their freedom, thus sowing
seeds of jealousy and dissension which are
fast ripening into turmoil and bloodshed.-
| This is done that some excuse may be found
| for delaying the restoration of the Union I'M
| til the radicals can renew their lease of pow,

The radical congressman have appointed
committees in all the northern states to raise
money to pay for printing radical documents
to send south, and to pay the expenses of
radical stump speakers to go south, to teach
the people how to vote. Dirty Work Logan
is the committee for Illinois. They had bet
ter raise money to buy food to keep the ne
groes from starving. How much has Dirty
Work Logan subscribed to save southern
people from starvation? When the bill was
pending to give money from the federal
treasury for that humane and christian OBJ
ject he was its bitterest opponent. He
would not vote to give dollar. The south
ern 'rebels" might starve; starvation was
no more than they deserved. For him, he
would march through the south with a sword
in one hand and torch in the other; but to
save them from starvation was q thing which
his superintendent loyalty would not permit
him to do.

The Shooting Of Gus Nelson.

Many of our citizens remember very ex-
celent young Swede, who was runner for
the Island City Hotel, when Tuxbury &
Arnold kept the house, and, afterwards, for
the Rock Island House, when Gen. Tuxbury
kept that institution. When Gen. Tuxbury
went to Nebraska, ''Gus," as he was famil-
iarly known, went with him, or before him.
He was very popular and excellent young
man, and had accumulateda handsome prop
erty. He has relatives in Andover, near
this city, where he also owns real estate
He was recently shot, in his own town, as
appears by the following account cut from a
Nebraska City paper, and sent to our towns
man, John Warner Esq, who has handed it
to us for publication
