IlI Trouble.

The Deacon is evidently in trouble
over tho X. X. KS. In his last issue
he attempts to fix the ASSASSINATION
of "Hon. G. w. Ashbnrn," at Colum-
bus, Georgia, lately, upon the Ku
Klux Klan. This murder, like that of
Darcy McGee, at Ottawa, Canada, is
but the advance skirmish of oppression
and treachery, much as it is regretted
by all law abiding citizens. Oppres-
sion, however, in all countries, has al
ways bred assassins and secret politi-
cal organizations, and it would be re-
markably strange if ours were made
the exception. AS the "Knights OF
the Golden Circle" troubled our neigh
Dor muchly few years ago, there is
but little hope for his peace and hap
piness should the X X. KS find their
way into this neck of woods. The
fellow Ashburn cfHon." and "Col,"
as our neighbor dubs him) was a bu-
reauite Of the lowest capacity, and
for the last year lived in a negro baw-
dy house, where his associates killed
him. Out of twelve witnesses who
testified before the coroner's inquest,
nine of them wcrc negro wenches,
who lived, ate and slept in the same
house and were present when the deed
was committed. Ashburn has re.
ceived the reward that awaits every
white vagabond who betiays his kim
dred and country, and makes his
abode with negro bawds.
Mr.. McGee was q gentleman and a
scholar, but he, too, had sold his coun.
trymen to the British crown for pelf
and place, and has paid the penalty
in tho prime of manhood.

This Radical conspiracy is still in
progress a; the Capital, but has lost
much ofitsintercst, so far a. thefricnds
Of tho government are concerned.
The leaders in this crusade upon dom
ocratic government, from their dcs.
pcratc movements, evidently soc the
handwriting on the wall, and are be-
ginning to realize that theirs is the
'Lost Cause" and with it they will be
lost too. The Buffers and Binghams
are guilty ofmany heinous crimes, and
they will not hesitate to perpetrate
still more; but we think majority
of their brethren, who have backed
them this far, will 60 with them no
farther-not from any love they bear
the country and its institutions, but for
fear of losing their own heads. Should
these wicked men, however, perseverc
in their programme and remove the
President, we hope it will not be long
until they will follow the '1ate lamen-
ted" and together be rewarded ac-
cording to promise.
The final issue is still held in mys-
terry. Sumner has held three tickets
for admission to the galleries of the
Senate, but up to this time not me-
gro has been admitted to that much
frequented abode of smell and loyalty
The Radical whip is vigorously applied
to the bare backs OF loyal Senators
every night by Stevens and bis task
masters. What effect these excoria-
tions viii have upon the final vote, we
are unable to determine; but we shall
be very much mistaken if the final
count exhibits more than from twenty
to twenty knavcs in that body
once made up of heroes and states
men, and officially recognized as the
Senate of the United States.
The evidence on both sides of the
case closed on the goth. The argu.
ment ofeounsel commenced yesterday.

An Abolitionisl who, like Wilhcr-
forco or Robcsplonc, never saw q no.
gro, and therefore indnlgcd q mere
abstraction which TO him was just and
indeed clevating, may be, and most
likely would be, a just and honorable
man. To him the "idea' that a "fcl-
low man" was held in such absolute
subiection TO another that he could
not own property, or even his own
children, without the consent OF n
master, would seem, no doubt, an
atrocious violation of the laws of na-
ture, and in striving to abolish such a
wrong, and give freedom to the slave,
would, no doubt, elevate the mind OF
such an Abolitionist. But leaving the
domain of abstraction common to the
European, and, to a certain extent,
to the northern mind, and dealing in
facts, fixed and fashioned by tho hand
of God Himself, then this Aboitionist
becomes a monster, devil, a human
beast so revolving, hideous and ac'
cursed, that no words in our language
can fitly define him. We have in
stances of men who have joined the
Indians in our colonial histories, and
made war on the whites, like Simon
Girty and others, who always dis
played more cruelty to prisoners
and revelled in horrors that their
savage friends turned from in disgust
But the Indian is vastly superior tc
the negro, and therefore, the man who
goes down, or strives to get down to
Impartial freedom" with this negro
to abdicate the high nature God gave
him and equalize with the subject race
as we now witness in Mongrel Con.
ventions, &C., becomes transformed
and deformed into the vilest human
dog, beast, devil or moral monster
that is possible and live. Indeed, he
can't live, or an aggregate OF such
monsters can't live or propagate them
selves, and nature dooms them TO alb
solute extinction within certain pc
riod. 1t is II law OF their moral exis-
tence TO resemble not the normal but
tho abnormal or "free" negro, to be
come as abject, base and cowardly al
their negro equals, and this perversior
or curse of nature on those who thus
outrage her, renders them incapable
Of extended mischief otherwise the
Howards, Underwoods, &C., would ru
in continent-Day Book.

Beast Butler was nearly as much
frightened, on Friday last, in his room
at Washington, as he was when his
powder boat exploded five miles from
Fort Fisher. Some wag handed a
letter to one of the servants at the
hotel addressed to Mr.. Butler, with
the request that it be sent to bis room.
The servant delivered it at once. The
Beast eagerly opened it and read these
startling words: "Prepare to meet
thy God p He fell back on his couch
in a swoon, but he soon rallied, hast
ened to the Senate, read it to the I'm
peachers, and made an hours speech
against tho Ku Klux Klan and every
thing else in which he had no leading
interest.

GooD PHoToGRAPH.--Horace Gree
ley, in a late number of the Tribune,
draws a life-likc portrait of himself
and John w. Fornoy-two of the
"grand-moral-idea" leaders. The fol.
lowing are his words;
"But Of all evil doers, the Political Liar-onS
who habitually and enormously falsifes occurren.
ccs and statistics, thereby deceiving and misguid
ing honest, well meaning men, whose leisure and
opportunities for studying documents are inferior
70 his owns among the basest and most wicked
He is like a belligorent who poisons fountains
burns hospitals, aud decoys tho enemy into his
power by displaying flag Of distress. No male
factor more richly deserves the scorn and execra-
tiOn Of mankind"
No artist in the world could have
done this so completely as Horace.
Having poisoned tho great fountains
of truth and education, he adopts the
"stop-thief' cry for the purpose Of
shielding himself from the two.edged
sword now suspended over him.

A loyal exchange says that Senator
Yates, of Illinois, has been too drunk
to cast a vote ever since impeachment
commenced. 1t is fortunate for him,
for thereby he has SO far escaped the
infamy of perjury and treason. lie
may live to see the time when he will
bless his stars for being drunk. We
wonder what excuse the sober conspi-
rators will offer when their treason
and treachery stares them fully in the
face.
