Trsable Beiweeh the Races.
Lh. Radicals are Using their ntm {

,pdeavors TO excite war Of races at
tIe South. They have led many mis-
guided negroes TO o'believe that the con-
iiscaiion of the property Of their former
masters, and a division of it among
themselves, would be no more than an
act oi retrihutive justice. The better
to subserve their Infamous purposes,
and to enable them to hold their dnpes
more obedient to their will, they
have organized among the negroes
secret soeieties. in which an oath
is taken "before God and man to sup
port the nominees Of the Radical
party and TO regard all outside their
organization rs enemies. The number
nf those secret associations throughout
ihe South is already large, axd urged on
hy Radical maleyolence and greed, they
continue to multiply. Their avowed
object il TO bring sbont the confscation
and distribution OF he estates of the
"disloyal," their members being known
~ CanfiScationists. Commenting on
this lamentable condition Of affairs,
The Richmond Examiner says: EFl
1T is not difficult to see where all
