questions in connection with the matter Of
arbitrary arrests, and perhaps bring the

and tinkled bells within the range of the
law Ii the principle shall be established
that these arrests were uniusiihable and
without authority Of law, Mr.. Stanton and
some of his associates will be placed in
rather an awkward and uncomfortable POI
sition. An endless number of law suits
will be the result, and severe damages will
have 20 paid This will Of course be dis
agreeable TO the temporary despots, who
rioied in usurped authority behind a row
OF muskets but then it must not be for
gotten that there was certain amount Of
disagreeability connected with the imprison-
ment Of the victims. 1t was by no means
comfortable to be locked up in a cell, and
the evil was aggravated by the failure to
inform the victims Of the cause Of their
punishment or the probable time Of their
discharge. Louisville Courier.

Mr.. EDIToRF Years do not creep
slowly by but once again We are upon
the eve OF Christina. In days of OLD it
was a pleasure 10 US TO see the 25th OF
December drawing nigh, especially when
We we're an urchin delivering the Unioa and
american TO lis city Subscribers, but, oh,
how different now. In the city you may
not see the canse Of change in the good
old times" You people in town expect TO
get pay for what you do, or propose TO do,
before the work is really done--a good
meflo. But how different are We who
expect to till the soil for living. We are
at an outlay from the first day of JANUARY
until our crops have been put into the
market, and at the present market rate of
our products We can hardly realize eur
outlay.
For the year Just closing I do not know of
a farmer who will make q cent. 1t will be
remembered that large amount of ground
was put in cotton this year, and we do not
know Of single Individual who will come
out even in his cotton raising, while the
crops of other descriptions have been
almost a failure, and in this strait of affairs
it can be said we are almost out of "spon-
dulix."
The amount Of land planted in cotton
this year gave employment to large nuns
? Der of negroes; but as the raising of this
staple will be greatly diminished, if not
entirely abandoned, on account Of the low
prices Of cotton, and the desire to plant
small grain, we will have a large number
of this class of people next year without
employment.
This year the negro had all the advan-
tages that he could desire, and we do not
know ola single instance in our neighbor-
hood where q negro has not come out in
debt from amounts averaging from S25 to
$780, In speaking of negroes who have
come out in debt, we only speak of those
who were farming for themselves. The
people of this county, / believe, would
raise cotton another year, but the negro,
with starvation staring him in the face, is
not willing TO work for any one. The
negro is to day in a worse condition than
he was previous to the late war, and God
knows that the people of the South are not
responsible for it.
The "Ku Klux X Ian" have been in these
quarters lately, but az yet they have done
nothing. We know nothing Of their de-

citizens held here last night, the principal
feature was a speech by A. G. Thurman,
late Democratic candidate for Governor.
He spoke at considerable length, urging
the protection Of naturalized citizens where
ever placed, and denouncing the idea that
allegiance TO one government survives
naturalization under another. Preamble
and resolutions were adopted looking
toward the protection Of foreign born citi-
zens Of the United States everywhere, and
recommending the subject to the early
attention of Congress.
