MEMPHIS, Oct. 1.-THE destruction OF arms
aboard the steamer Hesper still causes much excite
ment.
The Republican papers assert that the arms were
destroyed by the Ku KluX. The following parti-
culars of the seizure have been obtained. On
Thursday afternoon the tug Nette Jones, Captain
John Ford, left the wharf for Pickering, having
, barge in tow. She reached her destination and
landed line, but had scarcely made fast before the
spot was covered with men securely masked, pro-
bably one hundred in number They quickly
boarded the tug, took possession OF the pOt-house
and engineers room, and ordered Captain Ford to
start down the river,
When approaching Cat Island, twenty-five miles
below, near the Arkansas shore, Captain Ford was
ordered to run his tug alongside the little steamer
Hesper, which was tied up and taking wood
This was no sooner accomplished than the party
suddenly sprang aboard the Hesper.
Little nothing said to the boarders, who
evidently had an eye to business, and placed the
crew under surveillance and commenced the work
on hand. The gun boxes were broken open and the
guns taken out and thrown into the river, and many
OF the guns were broken before being thrown over.
A large quantity of ammunition in the hold marked
''sundries" was also tbrC overheard, and the
party quietly returned to the tug leaving the Hes
and his brother made for the woods soon the
Nette was seen. At midnight the tug reached
Point President Island, below the city, and was
run aground and the raiders taken on shore in a
skiff which they signaled Strict orders given
10 CAPTAIN Ford to remain below until daylight, and
the tug returned here this morning.

CAPITALAVOIDs TIE SOUTH.

The New York Tribune has remedy
for the blighted prosperity of the South
ern States 1t is that Northern men of
capital must "take or send their money
and buy Southern lands
But it does not come, says the New
York Times and the latter paper gives
its Radical co-worker of the Tribune
such cogent reasons why it does not, that
they are worth transferring entire to our
columns. Quoth the Times
Neither foreigners aor Northern capt.
talists will send their money into the
Southern States for Investment, either in
lands OF anything else. And the reason is
perfectly obvious: they have not sufficient
confidence in the political, industrial and
social future Of the South to warrant them
in committing their capital to its control.
Men will not put their money into any
State or country, until they can form some
reliable judgment of the usage to which it
will be subjected. They want to know the
general character and drift of the laws
which will control 1.-THE rate and kind of
taxation to which it will be subjected-the
security with which it will be surrounded
and the facilities which will be afforded for
employing, changing or Withdrawing it at
pleasure. All these things depend on the
character of the government which NAV be
established. And until capitalists can form
some more accurate and reliable opinion,as
to the kind of governments which are here
after TO exist ia the Southern States, and
the degree Of stable wisdom and justice
which may be expected fro. them, they
will not put their property under their
control.
Just now the Southern States seem likely
to pass substantially under the control of
their negro population. Even in States
where the negroes have not an absolute
msjority of the voters they have enough
TO decide the policy of the State govern
ments, unless the white voters unite against
them. The latter course would be very
likely to involve a conflict of races which
would throw society and all its interests
into chaos and if il is not resorted TO, the
substantial negro supremacy which would
follow, is an experiment which remains to
be tried. The loud and confident predic-
tions Of politicians and the press do not
settle the question. Capitalists who have
money TO invest prefer 10 await the result
of snch an experiment which, be II re.
membered, is as yet wholly untried in the
practical working of our Democratic in
situations. We have States and commune
ties where a very large per cent of the gov
erniDg people is made up Of the ignorant

aud inexperienced; but we have never yet
made any trial Of such an experiment as
involved in suddenly giving TIRES ffths,
one-half, or even oneSthird, Of the political
power of any State to- class of men gust
released from embruting, binding and de
grading slavery, not only aliens in race,
but Of that race which more than any other
on the earth is repugnant TO Anglo-Saxon
sentiment and prejudice, utterly without
experience in civil affairs, unaccustomed
even TO care for themselves in the smallest
matters Of daily life, and certain, for a
long time TO come, TO be mere tools in the
hands of selfish, Inscriptions and ire
sponsible politicians on one side or the
other.
