NEGROES ARmEKG AND DRIIIdNG-
WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

The Memphis Ledger of the LIST inst
makes this statement;
awe understand that negro Leaguers are
drilling at several points on the outskirts
Of the city. The different gunsmiths Of the
city are kept busily at work by them, ma
king repairs. The employees of our office
counted twenty this morning with guns for
repair at the establishment opposite. What
is the meaning of this unusual stir and
preparation? Do they all intend TO quit
f2rming and working, and hunt for live
lihood?"
We have seen it stated that the negroes
in other portions Of the State are adopts
ing a similar course, This is one of the
legitimate results of Radical teaching.
They have been made to believe that the
Southern people, among whom they pro-
pose to live, are thoir enemies, and that
they should arm themselves and organs
ize companies and drill, that they may
be prepared to resist the encrOachments
of these enemies Why is it that no eff
forts are made by the civil authorities to
put stop to this movement on the part
of the negroes, and to show them the
criminal folly of such a course ? 1t
they desire to live in peace with the
white people, they must so conduct
themselves rs to show that they mean
what they profess. This thing of organ
izinC and drilling negro companies in the
midst of a peaceful white population, can
NOT be looked upon with favor, and the
sooner it is discontinued the better for
both black and white Every movement
calculated to provoke a war of races,
should be studiously frowned down.

GEN ERAL GRANTS COMPLETELY IN
COTTON SPECIIATIONS.

The official documents copied from the
records of the Superior Court of Cinoin-
matt, which We print this morning, show
Ing the completely Of General Grant in
cotton speculations in his military de-
partmcnt, during the early part of the
war, in which his father was directly in
tcrcstcd, viii attract more than ordinary
attention. Ii will be seen that all the
elder Grant had to do was 70 80 to the
Generars headquarters and procure a
permit" and Secure transportation and
for this hc was to receive onclourth Of the
profits. What he made matter Of bar
.,ain ana sale was his influence with
General Grant, and that he disposed Of at
a high figure, il he could have realized
what he bargained for. The New York
World, in noticing THE feature Of the
case, as developed in the proceedings Of
the court says
There Is a still darker shade TO this
/ transaction, but 1t IL not yet 50 well anthem
/ ticated. 4 correspondent writes 10 us upon
| information which he received Of one Of
Jesse Grants neighhors, that, when Grant
| the father told Grant the con that the
] Macks refused 10 settle with him, the
| General sent them word that, unless they
promptly did 20, he would expel all the
| Jews from his departmental threat which
he soon ailer made good by his we'll known
order for the expulsion Of the Jews. This
is tie lrst explanation We have ever seen Of
the ynofiuc OF that unaccountable and dis
creditable order and il Mack Brothers are
really Jews, the explanation is not incredi-
hle-considering that the main fact Of the
cotton speculation is fully established.

How ENTHUSIASM FOR GRANT is
MANUFACTURED.

A few days since the Cincinnati Gaelic
contained letter giving glowing account
Of large and enthusiastic Grant meeting
at Van Vert Ohio, on the 18TH Of July.
Three thousand people were declared to be
present. The Van Vert (O.) Times, pub
lished where the meeting is declared to have
taken place, after copying the Gazetts's let
ter, remarks:
"Now, everybody here knows that there
has been no such meeting in this county.
They have held no meetings except their
Fourth of July Convention, which a part
Of their Central Com mittee knew nothing
Of until il was over, and those Of the Grant
Club which have been thinly attended.
The editors Of the Cincin-
natl Gazette display profound knowledge
of the railways in Ohio when they publish
that a train ran on the Cincinnati and
Mackinaw railroad, (which has no exist
ence), from Buena Vista, a village not lying
even on the proposed route of that road.
Bat il is from such reliable papers that oar
Radical friends learn their lessons, and it is
bv such statements that deluded Abolition
ists seek to fire the Radical heart Of the
land
The Grant enthusiasm which is said to
exist, we have no doubt Is all Of ihe Van
Vert kind, manufactured TO order.

A NOTABLE CONTRAST.
A Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Journal telegraphs that paper

A Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Journal telegraphs that paper
under date Of the ID inst. as follows:
1.-THE condition Of affairs in Tennessee
has excited much attention here during the
last few days. The Presidents understood
as saying that if United States troops are
sent there, they will go under orders to keep
the peace, and not TO aid BrownlOw in his
war of determination against white people.
The Republicans say they mean TO carry
the State for Grant if it costs half million
Of money and one hundred thousand troops.
Gen. Thomas is in active correspondence
with the War Department on the subject.
He says the people are ripe for revolu-
ton"
Gen. Thomas never misses an oppOr~
tunity Of saying an unfayorable word in
regard to the people OF Tennessee. He
is representing them as "ripe for reyolu-
ton at the very moment that number
of leading Confederate Generals, who
are honored and influential citi"
zens in their respective counties
were here doing all they possibly
could 20 preserve peace. They fell
that an outraged people like those
Of Tennessee could not and would
not submit to the cruelties and
outrages which the "lOyal militia
would commit, and it was to avoid jus
such collisions as this militia would un
questionably provoke that they came hert
to plead with the Legislature not to au'
thorize the calling out Of that militia, ant
to assure that body that such step wa
wholly unnecessary. While these Gen
erals were thus labOring to preserve th'
peace in this State, by assuring thu
Legislature that they nor those will
whom in the past they had been associ
ated, contemplate any such rashness ant
folly as seeking to overthrow the Stat
government, or to do any other act b.
revolutionary or lawless means, Gen
Thomas was using his influence to hav
the heel Of the military again placed upOI
the necks of this people upon the avoweC
ground that they are "ripe for revolu
ton" What contrast for the patriotic
Of all parties to contemplate

AdVIees from the Superintendent of
Indian AnaIrs-Number of Patents
Issued, etc, etc.
WASHINGTON, August 3.-The Superin-
tendent of Indian Affairs, Murphy, writes
to the Indian Bureau from Fort Ellsworth,
Kansas July %, informing the Commits
siOner of his arrival on the 28th ult. The
next day he called on Gen. Sully at Fort
Harker, who informed him he had about
ten days rations to date of the Superinten-
dents letter. He met in council at Fort
Larned, the KiOwas, Camanches, Apa-
hoes, Cheyennes and ArapahOes. The
Cheyennes were cross and sullen, because
of not having received their supply of
arms and ammunition from the govern
ment, while the Kiowas and Camanches
were sullen and impudent because of the
scarcity of provisions among them.
Gen. Sully had collected an effective
army in the neighborhood of Fort Larned,
and posted them in position, which had
good effect on the refractory Indians, and
they had stated their willingness to await
the action of their father in sending them
provisions. The reason why the Kiawas
have not been supplied with arms and am
munition Is because of their recent viola
tion of the treaty stipulatiOns, they having
made war on the Kaws, who are friendly to
the whites, besides having invaded the
government reservations for wsrlike pur-
poses.
About twelve hundred lodges, consisting
Of six thousand Indians, were present atthe
council held by Gen. Sully. Many Of
them were still in the neighborhood Of
Fort Larned, but at the date of Superin-
tendent Murphy's report everything was
quiet, although some Of the Indians had
been stealing whenever they could get an
opportunity. The killing Of a Lieutenant
and five soldiers, some days ago, is denied
by Mr. Murphy's report. He says although
the Indians are now quiet, that unless aided
by the government, they may resort to eX-
tensive stealing rather than starye, which
may lead to serious difficulties this fall
unless provisions are made to keep them
from suffering for food. The officers of
the Indian Department feel assured that
by means of provisions under direction of
Gen. Sherman, all difficulties will be
averted with the Indians.
Three hundred and ninety-one patents
we're issued from the patent office for the
week ending tomorrow. Three hundred
and eighty-fve applications were made,
and seventy-twO caveats entered.
In view Of the changes taking place
among the employees of the Treasury De-
partment in Washington, Secretary Nc
Culloch has directed the appointment Of a
clerk to receive no more applications for
office, either from men or women, and to
return those already received, to the
respective parties who presented them.
A dispatch from Richmond states that
Judge Merideth of the Circuit Court, has
decided in the case Of the Exchange and
Farmers Bank against certain parties for
the recovery in current funds of debts con-
tracted prior TO the war that the banks are
compelled to take their own issue in the
discharge Of the obligation. The case will
be brought to the Court of Appeals.

HOW KU-KLUX STORIES ARE MAN
UFACTURED.

The following paragraph from the Tren-
ton (Tenn.) Gazette of the lst inst. tells its
own story:
awe understand that the Tax Collector
for this county, Mr.. Parker, a few days
since visited Rutherford Station, for the
purpose of collecting the taxes Of that dis
trict, and seeing young man wearing a
pair of red pants (the uniform of the
members Of the Base Ball Club at once
concluded that he was a Ku-Klux, and
that his presence was intended as an in
timidation, left the place, declaring that
he could not collect the taxes without
the militia. And it is believed that be
has gone to Nashville on that mission.
This is the way in which most of .he ri
diculous stories about Ku-Klux originate
and such are the fimsy pretexts upon which
the Legi stature is called together to discuss
the arming and calling out of the militia"

Democratic victory In Keutuct,

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 3.-The election held
in the State of Kentucky to-day was for
Governor, Circuit Judges, Commonwealth
Attorney and other smaller offices. The
result has been a great victory for the
Democrats. The following is the vote of
the city of Louisville: Stevenson, Demo
crat, S244; Baker, Republican, 1872. Ste
venson's majority, 1852. All the other
regular Democratic candidates, ten in num-
Der. were opposed by Independents.
The Democrats were elected by msiori-
ties ranging from five to seven thousand.
Returns from the State everywhere show
a large increase of Democratic majorities,
and falling off in the Radical vote.
Unless the vote is expectedIy small in
the interior counties, Steyenson's majority
will probably reach fifty or sixty thousand

"Mr. Blake is known in our community

Alabama Legislature, etc.

MONTGOMERY, August SIN the Senate
to-day the only bill of importance dis
cussed was the disability bill. There was
no definite action in the House. A large
number of bills, of a local character only,
were passed. The common carrier bill
created an animated discussion. That was
the only original bill that could be put be-
fore the House, and that the Clerk had no
right to readfrom the printed cay; the origi-
nal could not be found, it having been
lost by the committee to which it was re-
ferred. This created great confusion. Mo
tons were made and appeals from the de-
CisiOn of the Chair were taken il rapid sue
cession, amid much disorder, when the
House adjourned till tomorrow. The
passage Of the bill is considered as very
doubtful.
Rains are doing immense damage, and
the worms are appearing in all sections Of
this State. 1t is estimated that the cotton
