find Democrat who believes that he will

DISTURBANCES at a Freeclmen.s village

WAsHINGFoE, July "A disturbance
occurred last week at a freedmen's village
in Virginia. It seems that Mr.. Howard,
Superintendent of the village, ordered the
removal Of the hog pens in the village as a
nuisance, and attempted to carry out the
order, when the negroes, armed with razors
and clubs resisted, and wounded two or
three white men engaged in experimenting
the village. Among the wounded are an
Assistant Surgeon, clerk, and Mr., How
ard. Five or six negroes were arrested
and confined in the Alexandra jail. A
company of regulars is now camped al the
freedmehS village, preserving order.

'THE GOVERNOR, as the Knoxville
Wing styles the Senior, Editor Of that
paper, is very anxious for some sort ef
excuse, now that the canvass is soon to
open, to quarter a lot of militia upon the
citizens Of number Of counties in this
State. His paper of the lst inst. makes
this statement:
FThe Governor is daily in receipt Of
letters showing a horrible condition of
affairs in about six or eight counties Of the
State. Every night armed bands Of assas-
sins and thieves, calling themselves "Klans-
men Of the Ku-Klux," are numbering loyal
men, white and colored, and applying the
torch to their dwellings. The only remedy
for these evils, "a IL seems to us, is an extra
session Of the Legislature and the organi-
cation of militia force which will restore
peace or eJtermiIaate the outlaws" -.
These highly sensational stories would
be found upon Investigation by any
man who could lay prejudice aside, to
have the slimest possible foundationj ih-
deed, to exist in a very large majority, if
not the nine-tenths Of the eases, in the
fertile imagination Of sundry gentlemen
who know that their lease Of power de-
ponds upon keeping up this favorite
amusement But if these highly colored
reports had any real substance, the Cow
ernor should remember that the civil
officers are not Rebels but are Of the
kind whose aloyalty" is recommebda-
ton to bis favor, and that they should
be held responsible for permitting in
fractions Of the law and making no
arrests. The Governor was quick to
plead in exclamation Of the infiotiOn
of his militia upon portions of
the citizens of this State last year,
that the civil officers were "Rebels"
and would not execute the laws. Now the
matter is changed, but he has no sharp
rebukes for his clansmen where ne claims
that the laws are set at defiance, and
crimes and outrages are committed
1t makes wonderful difference nov, as
of old, whose OK bull does the goring

Fuss AND FURY AFTER THE ELEc-
TIoNs.-The radical organ in this city
and Greeley's narrow-minded block
heads of the Loyal League are rails
ing great deal of fuss and fury over
the result of the election in this
State, and are making themselves
generally ridiculous by talking about
contesting the election Of State Off
GERS who have been chosen by twen-
ty-fve or thirty thousand majority.
Greeley, who always takes the lead
in such follies, declares that every
State whose electoral vote is cast for
Seymour and Blair has been carried
by fraud or terrorism, and attributes
q radical minority, wherever found,
to repeaters or the Ku Klux Klan.
This is all balderdash. Politicians on
both sides, Republicans and Demo
Gratis, generally get in as many bogus
votes as possible for their candidates,
and we have no ideG that they were
any more scrupulous in the election
just over than in any other that has
been held for the past quarter of q
century. Grant has been chosen by
handsome majority; the people are
we'll satisfied. and it is paltry busi-
ness for the Union Leagues to be ex-
pending their wrath upon Justice
Shandley because he worked faith
fully for his party, or debating
whether Pat keenan, or Dennis O'Raf
ferty had one person or dozen re-
gistered from his residence.
The radicals would be more profit
ably employed studying the true les
son of the election. The people
elected Grant because they have con-
fidence that he will secure to the ma
tion the peace for which he fought
on the field Of battle. They gave the
State Of New York to the opposition
and deprivedIthe Republicans of their
two-third majority in the House of
Representatives, because they disap-
prove the violent measures and ex-
treme policy of radicalism. The
sooner Union Leauges and Republi-
can Congressman understand this
fact the better. -NeeD York Herald

BnooDY TRAGEDY. "A terrible md
hoErid tragedy WAS enacted on our
public square last night. About 10
O'Clock o large body OF disguised
mounted men entered the SQUARE
| from Washing Rton sfraat asd ssIs;s|,.z. Is;ss !.
orderly, without q word, rode around
theFsquare, and passed off the same
way they came. At the time, there
was Q radical meeting being held in
the Court House, composed almost
entirely of negroes, who, when the
procession appeared, rnshed down
FROM the Courtroom and set up the
widest yells, oursing and crying,
"Charge on the Ku Klux! Shoot
the damned rebels!" After the ca
lvalcade had left the square fully 200
yards, a body of ut least twenty me-
groes rushed through the North gate,
armed with shot-guns, pistols and
clubs. Among them were number
of white men, who had been in at
tendance at the meeting. On the
sidewalk, along by the Moore build
ing, were large number of persons,
white and black, drawn there to wit
ness the procession. Just as the me-
groes rushed through the gate, some
one Of them fred upon the crowd on
the sidewalk, and in a moment as
many as thirty shots were fired from
both parties. when the firing sudden.
ly ceased, the negroes running off in
many directions. The sequel of this
dastardly and fanatical outrage was
the killing of one negro, outright,
mortally wounding another, and the
slight wounding of third; the NOR
tai wounding of one white man, seri-
oeusly wounding second, and slight
u wounding two others. Judge
Ihurlow, present Judge of Probate
Court of Limestone County, was
shot through the bowels, and is al
most certain to die.
The negroes came to the meeting
with guns, for we saw one in q negro's
possession; and it is attested by
twenty witnesses, some of them Fede-
raj soldiers, that the firing was COM
menced by negroes. The Ku Klux
did not modest the negroes in any
way whatever, and were off the
square fully 200 yards before the
firing ceased. Negroes were heard
to say afterwards that the matter was
not settled yet. Let every white man
be ready to defend himself to the
death.

A well-known wealthy Partisan has

artist, "as he was, "as he is," and
'as he will be-" GAS he was" rep
resents him, at the age Of twenty
five, poor devil in ragged garments,
with his toes peeping through holes
in his shoes, sinking, half-famished,
by the side of wall. "As he is, +"
figures him fat and jolly as IN alder
man, well-dressed, with gold chains
decking mis- waistcoat. and diamond
rings blazing on his fingers. And in
"as he will be-" he is made O rotting,

feature of such singular freak, is
the fact that he has the paintings
