CIVIL RIGHTS CAsE.-Four men John
B. Adams, VIM. Adams, j. w. Jones
and Bascom Legett, all of Kemper
county, were arrested under writ
based upon the affidavit of r. w. Max
ev, of this county, issued by Justice
Gibbons, United States commissioner,
charged with the violation of the pro-
visions of the civil rights bill. The
specific charge was, that said parties,
one of them Justice of the Peace for
Kemper county, had enforce upon one
Malinda, a freedwoman, a law OF the
State which inficts different pains and
penalties upon negroes from those in
ficted upon whites. The parties APP
peared before commissioner Gibbons
Yesterday, and the Sheriff returned the
writ into court, with United States
District Attorney Leachsman's en-
dorsement upon it, "nol prosd.,"
whereupon, the commissioner dis
charged the parties. Dept Marshal,
Means, Immediately placed them under
arrest again by virtue of a process
issued by the agent of the Freedmen's
Bureau, before whom the case is to be
tried next Friday at 10 o'clock
The woman, Malinda was prosecut
ed under the State law which denoun-
ces a penalty against any '.person' for
enticing away employees from their
duty. tits claimed by those who are
prosecuting in this case that the law
of the State is in violation of the civil
rights bill. We apprehend, that it
will be adjudged that this state is ap
plicable to all alike, and does not come
within the perview and meaning of
the civil rights bill at all.

Leachman, is representing the United
States, and B. H. Ramsey, the defcn-

President Johnson's Washington
organ holds forth in the following
strain, as to the results that will fol-
low, if the Radicals persist in their
reasonable and UBIQUITOUS schemes
eff necessary its strong and iron
hand will be invoked to stay the
conrse and prevent the consummation
of radical treason. The great oaths
of the President to protect and defend
the Constitution will not be forgotten,
and the people who sustain him with
their 100000 majority of the voting
population, North and South, will not
forget him. Events have already
brought the Government to the very
verge of anoaher revolution. 1t the
radical majority in Congress pursue
it's reasonable conrse much longer,
the Government, in order to sustain
itself, will have to arm its supporters.
At the call of the President all his
friends, North and South, and the
army and navy will respond. In such
a contest the issue cannot be.doubtful.
Congressman may be valiant fighters
ON the floor Of Congress, but when
they come to lead their cohorts into
the field it will be another thing. The
real armies and great soldiers OF the
Republic will be found fighting under
the American flag. We advise the OPP
position Of the determined and fixed
fact that Andrew johnson will serve
out his constitutional term of office. :
