The Radical Congress Responsible
We entreat the better and NOR
thoughtful class Of men at the North t.
note the working Of this diabolical plo
against the peace Of Southern society
to put themselves in the place of th'
Southern people, thus menaced and liy
ing over a daily volcano, and to asl
themselves what would be their feelings
and action under such fearful danger
kept up from month to month for party
purposes, and not to cease, it seems
while this bad party remains in power
We ask them, also, to note the fearfu
increase Of crime on the part of the ne
groes, and to see how many of them arc
becomin9 demons under the teaching O
the Radical emissaIies. In all these
horrible deeds we read the work Of the
Bureau and the Loyal Leagues. The
following are only portion of the out
RACES which have lately met our eyes:
A Negro Fiend First Attempts to
fcup nj
Murders Her--fHe is Caught and
Hanged.
From the St Louis Times, 18TH.
A most atrocious murder was commit
ted on Friday, at Ponds store, on the
Manchester road, about twenty-five miles
from the city. Mr.. Hildebrandt, who
keeps the Pond store, is strong believ-
er in the doctrines Of negro suffrage and
negro equality, and in order to put these
themes into practical execution, employ
ed a negro named Jordan to do the work
around the farm To obliterate all lines
of distinction, he permitted the negro to
eat at the same table and fraternize with
the family. Among the members of the
household was maid, Amelia Drienho-
fer. Jordan, presuming upon the liberty
permitted him, and believing that equal
ity meant a right to do every and any
thing his more bestial nature might sug-
gest, ON Saturday morning followed the
young woman into the washhouse and
made an indecent proposal to her, which
she Indignantly refused, ordering him
out of the building. Not content with
the rebuff, he attempted to carry out his
design by.force. She resisted and drove
him out, locking the door upon him. AS
he left the room he declared he would
kill her. Deeming this but an idle threat,
she paid no further attention to it; but
in few moments she was horrified by
seeing him at the kitchen window with a
gun in his hand, which he immedIateiy
discharged. The bullet entered her back
and passed through the bowels. He i'm
mediately dropped the gun and started
for the woods. He was arrested, and on
preliminary examination was held to
answer, and sent to Glencoe Station to
be conveyed to the Jail in this county.
The excitement around the depot was in
tense, and fearing violence, the negro
was returned to Ponds store for safe
keeping. In the afternoon the crowd
broke in and seized Jordan, whom they
conveyed to a clump Of trees, where
they hung him without further parley.
[From the Louisville Journal
NEGRO ATROCITIES.
The Lexington Observer says that
within the last week three negro rapes
upon white women have been attempted
near the city. This crime has become
horrible common among the negroes al
over the country. A perfect mania fol
ravishing women and young girls, and
even female children, six, seven or eight
years of age, seems to have seized upon
the minds of the negroes throughout
the entire land The catalogue of re-
ported cases, many of them resulting Ill
the death of the victims, is frightful
and, every day adds to it. In many
portions of the South females do moi
dare to leave their homes and, ever
when they remain within them, the black
devils break in for the qualification o.
their accrlrsed instincts.
1t is probable that the negroes consider
rape as one Of their newly acquired
rights. We are aware that this is re
voting subject to be mentioned in
newspaper, but is too important to bt
ignored. We would rather the last he
gro should be driven from the cont
nent than that the coming year should
witness a repetition Of all the disgust
ing and horrid atrocities of the last.

ALADY OF sEvENrY-sIX OUTRAGED BY !
NEGRO NEAR SCHENECTADY.
About 10 o'clock this morning mos
dastardly outrage was perpetrated upon
the person of an aged German woman
named Louckes, in Van Zandts woods
on the Albany turnpike, short dis
tance from this city, by a brute of he
gro, who overlook the woman in th'
woods, knocked her down, ravishins
her person several times, and then fled
leaving the woman in an insensible anC
half dying condition where she was dis
covered by one of the neighbors, wh'
Immediately notified her husband Mr.
Louckes Immediately came to this cit.
to procure warrant for the negro,s Al
rest, but failing to obtain one, he rstlrn
ed home with the intention of rotsin:
the neighborhood, and, if possible, cap
turing the william. He is a large size
negro, and stranger in the vicinity
Mrs. Louckes is about seventy-siX year
of age. She resisted the negro as lon
as she was able, but was soon overcome
She now lies in a precarious condition
at her home, and it is feared ber injurie
will result fatally. The black yillai
should be hanged TO the first tree as 500
as captured. We hope he will be caught
Since the above was in type we haV
learned that Justice Thompson ha
issued warrant for the negro, and o.
