he enemies of the white race. They sup
port the Radicals with their votes let the
Radicals support them by giving them work.
We say, unhesitatingly, as much as we are
grieved by being compelled 30 write it, that
no white Conservative in Virginia should
keep O negro radical in his employ a mo-
ment longer than he can pay him up and
! DISCHARGE him To do SO will encourage
him in his dangerous radical views instilled
into his mind by the white scum who man
| ipulate the loyal leaguers, and will be vir-
tually placing the knife at your own throat.
We urge this view upon our people, both
| in town and country, far more in sorrow
than in anger, because we have never in
dulged any enmity towards the blacks. On
the contrary, we have ever borne towards
them the kindiest feelings, and have
sought to promote their welfare They
have. however, with some few noble exce;S-
tons, hoisted the black flag and proclaim
ed war against the Conservative whites,
and for the latter so shirk the issue invoked
would be to play the dastard's part.
For such coIored men as boldly met the
tide of angry passions that their Conserva-
tism and love Of the whites called forth,
we have 10 words of sufficient praise. Our
people should seek them out everywhere,
and should esteem it an especial obligation
upon them, to see that they are not mo-
Tested or maltreated by the league hordes
who threaten them. They should cherish
and protect them in every possible man

7IoRE DISCfIARGEs-W hear of several
persons in the country, and also in this
city, who have discharged their negro en-
ployees on account Of their Radicalism. =
This course Of conduct will be general on
the part Of the whites, and the deIuded
Negro will find, when forever too late, that
Radicalisn does not put meat into his pot,
nor voting ill his meal tub. The lesson
will be a severe one-sharp and decisive,
but we are confident will be attende with
the most wholesome results in the future.

After the scenes of Tuesday, who is not
ready to cut loose from the faithless negro
and look elsewhere for his labor. He has
turned against us-against the hand that
sustains and the home that protects him ;
he has basely conspired with our enemies
for our destruction, and now let him look
out for himself The Old World is TEEN
ing with industrious, intelligent, skillful
labOrers, who will gladly come where their
labor will be better rewarded and where
their circumstances, i'll every respect, will
be bettered. Then let them come let
them be encouraged to do so, let farmers,
contractors, hOusekeeperS, and others send
their orders to the Virginia Immigration
Society, and they viii speedily be supplied
with labOreTs and servants who will not fail
to give oatisfactlon. A gentleman who re-
Gently supplied himself with white labor
from Europe remarked TO US yesterday,
that he was much pleased with the result
of his experiment. We hope many will
follow his example.
From the Petersburg INDEX
The negroes are the last mPu who should
complain if their white employers were to
discharge them and supply their places
with white men. On election day they in
augurated this system of policy, and by
threats and open Violence prevented many
of their race from voting the conservative
ticket as they desired. In some instances
conservative tickets were torn from the
hands Of the voters and radical tickets sub
stituted, which through fear, they were
compelled to put in the ballot box. No
man is employed even on the police in New
York, Philadelphia, OR any other city, who
does not vote on the side of those in pow
er, and if a corporation in which both par
ties are interested can thus act, why may
not an individual who is only spending
money belonging to himself. 1t is the high
est duty for every man to take care of his
friends, and we do hope that III the future
the money which the white men have to
disburse will be so expended as to advance
the interests of their race, and break down
that party which threatens to destroy all
that Is good and great in this State and
community.
[From the Bedford CLroniclel
The colored voters Of this county have
deliberately thrown down the gauntlet to
their only true friends, and deserve no
countenance or sympathy from the South
ern people They have demonstrated their
complete alienation from the whites, and
have no right to look TO them for employ
ment or shelter They have manifested a
supreme indifference 10 the welfare of those
upon whom they are dependent for every
thing. They have forced an issue upon us
which we would never have made. They
declare themselves deadly enemies to the
| South and her institutions and IN doing
50 have thrown themselves into the arms OF
those to whom they will be compelled to
| look for aid III the future. They tell US
plainly that they are independent Of Us,
and it now remains for them to demonstrate
| it. They give Us to understand that they
regard the Radicals as their only friends
they cannot complain if We accept the issue.
