The Governor of Alabama is certainly not
far wrong in liis notion that moro national
troops y'are necessary III that State. The
presence OF $4,000 soldiers in Alabama
would not be eifec,voin keeping the peace
nsthe Camilla fight will prove. Now, that
tho whole history ofthat event is seen, il is
undeniably clear that tho niggcrs provoked
the disturbance. They marched With their
radics! leaders, with music and arms, into
quiet town, COMFORTING themselves in an
offensive manner, and making bully expe-
dition, the menace Of their conduct was
notasif IL were real. Niggers will sec, by
this example, thatit is.not yet safe to bully
white;n,en, and that viii prevent collisions.
