The Outrages in...Loniaiana.

The following dispatch from the
Republican State Committee of Lou
isiana was received by the Union Re-
publican National Committe in this
city on Saturday:
NEW ORLEANS, October 80, 1868.
$40 the National Republican Com
nlittee:
"The Republican State Committee
of Louisiana, In behalf of the loyal
people of the state, represent to the
great North and West that reign of
terror has been inaugurated by the
democracy throughout the state.
Hundreds of Republicans have been
killed; Republican residences, church
es, schoolheuses and printing offices
are being sacked; the flags and fixtures
of clubrooms destroyed; registration
certificates of Republicans taken arm
ed bands. Democratic secrets organi-
cations, press and party, are in resis.
tance to the laws, and advise the

From the Macon, Georgia. Union
Another Atrocious Outrage.

We have just been informed by an
eye witness, of one of the most COW
ardly outrages ever prepetrated by
human beings. We had begun to feel
comparatively safe from outlaws, when
we saw boys in blue taking up their
quarters here again, and the rebuke
administered to the Ku-Klux Demo-
cracy by the Republicans of four
Northern States. But it seems we are
not safe yet.
Last week, Hon. Thomas Allen, one
of the expelled members of the Geor-
gia Legislature, gave out a call in his
county (Jasper,) for a political meet
ing to be held at Monticello, the coun-
ty- seat, on last Saturday. So soon as
it became known among the whites
that Republican meeting was to be
held, threats we're freely made that
Allen should never hold the meeting,
and advice was givin to the colored
people that they had better not go to
the meeting as they might get hurt.
Mr.. Allen received several Ku-Kluz
notices to leave the country, and not
attempt to hold any meetings under
pain Of death, to all of which he paid
no heed.
On Friday night, party wenf to his
house knocked at the door and called
him. He asked who they were, when
they answered that they were friends
and gave the names of some neighbor-
ing colored men. He then asked what
they wanted, and they replied that
they had been hunting, their dogs had
''treed" just below, and they wanted
light. Mr.. Allen was about to COM
ply with their request, when his wife
insisted that they were not the colOTed
men they had named, but Wera white
men, and were probably after him,
whereupon he told them that his
brother-in-law, Emanuel Tripp. who
was in the other end of the house,
would give them a light. They went
to his door and as Tripp handed the
light out at the door the contents ot
two guns were fred into his body
The assassins ran off and Mr. TripI
died in fifteen minutes. He leaves {
wife and five children.
The assassins undoubtedly mistook
their man, thinking that Emanuel
Tripp was Thomas Allen.
On Saturday the farce of holding &
Coroner's inquest was gone through, il
all probability, the same men serving
on the jury who had perpetrated the
coWardly and horrible deed. A YER
dict was rendered that "the deceased
came tp his death from gun shots
wounds at the hands of unknown per.
sons''-of course.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1868-11-06

Since Mr.. Alexander Randall back
slid from the Republican faith he has
undertaken the management of two
considerable interests, Andrew Johnson
and the Post Office Department. The
first had the most of his management,
and, by a notable coincidence, had the
most of the 1ll-luck. But the Post-Of-
fee, as we now learn, hastens close be-
hind. In 1865, under Gov. DonnisOn's
administration, the Department had a
surplus of receipts over expenditures
of hundred and sixty thousand dol
lars. The next year, under Mr.. Ran
dali, there was deficiency of million
six hundred and sixty-fve thousand,
and the next year he was enabled to
swell the deficiency to within two
thousand ofan even four million dol
lars. Now, as the full force of his man
agement is felt, the deficiency for the
present year foots up six millions four
hundred thousand. Such are the pleas
ing fruits of the Bread-and-Butter poll
cy, in the hands of its inventors.
