WAR AND BLO0DSHED In THE SOUTH.
| The Radical Programme for Effect on the
September Elections.
| From the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle and SentineLl
The alarm OF the carpet-bag con piratorS against
another indication OF the great reaction In fav9r OF
| constitutional government. They have the sagacity
to foresee the utter rout and destruction OF their
party In November next and the consequent topping
OF their pretended State governments, and hence
they pite0usy appeal to Congress for succor. They
wish an early session of the Jacobln rump in order
that heavier shackes may be placed upon the South
ern whites, which will prevent their voices being
neard 10 the approaching election. The success OF
| IN the South-depends upon the prompt
ana decisive manacng of .,,t the Southern
popular WILL This they can only effect through the
actlon OF Congress. They insist that further recon
only deprive the people Of the South from voting In
the next election, but they demand that arms shall
placed IN the hands Of the negroes for the purpose
the point Of the bayonet to submit all the wrongs
and outrages which this Jacobln rump may choose
The great leader Of this party, General Grant,
cries "Peace-let US have peace ~ and the carpet
states respond sLet us have peace'-the peace
which the wolf accords to the lamb when it clutches
It IN Its paws-the peace secured by the bayonet
held upon the breasts Of the vrtuous and intelligent
whites by the ignorant and infuriated negroes
They all camor for "peace." put such peace as
terrible war which, In its fury, would crimson our
rich valleys with the blood Of innocent millions.
The radicals would hold their tyrannous power over
these States at all hazards. They would prefer to
see the black eXtermnated or driven from our
borders, to witness the smoking ruins OF desoated
homes to hear the cries OF widows and the walls OF
orphans the stiened corpse or the assaSSlnated
husband and father to see this fair land drenched
In blood from the Potomac to the Rio Grande, rather
than lose their power or slacken their hold upon the
PROSTATE form Of liberty.
| that peace may come through the virtue OF Mimic
balls lodged IN the hearts OF the Southern whites,
all the arms to be placed In the hands OF the recently
enslaved race and their passions aroused and eX-
| cited by the infamous and dabOical ISLANDERS aud
falseho0ds of carpet-baggers and scalawags, while
the whites are left without arms, without the pro-
lection OF the state government without the prOtec
ton OF the general government, without the means
Grant and his carpetbaggers and scallawags would

The Organs Of the radical party IN this state nave
already begun their ncendiary teachings IN antlci
patton, doubtless, Of the prospective action OF the
| Rump. They are artfuly and adroity leading the
minds of the poor deluded negroes the conclusion
that the white people of the South contemplate their
reinstatement. They are attempting to instil into
their breasts the idea that they must prepare to meet
the efforts which they say The whites are making to
| injure them by thorough and armed organization
| They daily warn them OF a pretended danger and
l
inauguratng strife and boOdsned. These Southern
radical presses and speakers know that there Is not
the slightest foundation for their sedit0us and rev0
| tionary harangues and advice, They know that
everywhere throughout the State the white people
are making earnest efforts to concilate the negroes
that in thousands OF instances we have succeeded
In dragging from the hideous orgies Of their secret
leagues, the poor, deceived and injured black man,
and caused him to feel what all know Is true, that
the white men OF the South are his truest friends.
1t is because OF our great success in winning BY
quiet peaceful and legitimate means the deceived
and betrayed black man from the wicked and
trator0us association with the loyal leagues that
they raise this pretended note Of alarm.
They have received instructions upon this subject
from their masters In Washington The Radical Con-
gressiOnal Executive Committee have advised their
Southern cOlaborers that a series OF riots in the
Southern States essential to the success of their
party. They are urging their radical speakers and
the press in the South to excite collisions between
races. They insist that negroes must be killed In all
the southern States by the whites or Grant VIII be de-
feated. They insist upon preclpitating at all haZ
ards sanguinary conflict between the races as the
best and only hope Of the party; These are needed
used In the North and West just the New Orleans
and Memphis riots were used in 1866.
Already we find unmistakable evidence OF the
effects OF these revolutionary and sedtiOus teach
ings. Within the last ten days there have been
rious disturbances In different sections of the State
and In every instance they have been brought about
by the tntOerant sedltiOus and illegal conduct OF
thoroughly organized bands OF oath-bound negroes.
In DoOly county organized band OF armed negroes
marched few days since to the Court House for the
| avowed purpose OF releasing from confinement
lawful affidavit and warrant.
| In Twiggs county last week an infuriated mob Of
armed negroes besieged and attacted the dwelling Of
planter because he was suspected of giving shelter
to democratic negro who was accused Of hom-
eide.
In Fort Valley, Houston county, about the same
time negro man grossly nsulted O white lady In
the street and was promptly and properly punished
for his insolence-just as white man would have
been treated for the same Ofence-by male friend
who witnessed the outrage, and Immediately, upon
| "a signal given, large band OF armed negroes
rushed upon the scene and furously attacked the
avenger OF the insuted lady.
ssADout the same time q band OF several hundred
armed negroes, fully Differed and thoroughly organ
tied, made demonstrations in Macon county for
pretended grievances, which came very near lnv0lv
ing that county In a terrible conflict
In Atlanta. on Tuesday last q drunken negro
who was creating disorder and provoking a dis
turbance, was arrested by the police or that city
| upon information given by and ut the request Of
some negroes, and Immediately the police were set
upon by a band Of yelling nfuriate negroes with
prisoner rescued and one OF the police seriously
wounded, while one Of their own number was acci-
| dentally killed.
| In Hancock county, very recently, a negro was
found openly enrolling all the males OF his color be-
| tween sixteen and sixty years OF age and ordering
them to q place OF rendezvous In the county, where
he stated large number Of arms, provided by Coy
ernor Bullock, had been deposited. The object Of
this organization, he openly proclaimed, to be the
killing of the democrats.
These are but OF few OF the more recent ind icaons
| OF impending and threatened disorder and blood
| shed which has come to our knowledge. We see in
every paper which We read accounts OF disturbances
| between the races which should make every pru-
dent pause and ponder well the situation. All
OF these outbreaks have been fomented and encour-
aged III not actually advised, by the radical leaders
| In the State They are considered essential to the
life OF their party aud must be procured In some
way.
