The Captain General of Cuba has issued q
proclamation Withdrawing the offer of an
amnesty which he had made to the insurgents,
suppressing liberty of the press, and establish
ing in its place the former censorship. The fact
of such proclamation being issued is clear
indication that the Captain General sees that
all his offers have failed to produce any effect,
and that he is alarmed at the prospects of the
revolution. The result of the new proclamation,
we expect, viii soon be found to be very diff

The tabling of bill in the Kentucky Legis-

which we give in anothsr column, Sat
urdsy, June 18th is named as the day
for holding the Conventions in the
Counties, TO select delegates 20 attend
the general Convention. TIE county
committee should issue its call at once,
and let the work of organization begin.
There is work to be done the coming
fall, and no effort should be spared to
do it well. The Democracy will strain
every nerve to carry the State this fall,
and though they viii fail. they should
be utterly routed. Only through or
gahizatiOn will we accomplish this, and
that should be effected at once. That,
and an active canvass, will result in
shaking of, also, the strong hold they
have upon our county. Up aud. to

Reign Of rsrror .


Just now Georgia seems to be under
going another trial of blood. The hor-
rors of the rebellion are being repeated,
and loyal citizens are obliged to sban-
don their homes, to avoid the savage
vengeance of the murderous Ku-Klux,
and this, too, in professedly recon
structed State. Ministers seem to be
especially obnoxious to those human
1yenas. But a few days ago, and
Mr.. Adkins, Baptist minister, was
murdered in cold blood, and his assas-
sins escaped. Rev. J. S. Pitman, a
Presiding Elder of the NJ E. Church,
has since been assailed by the Klan, and
only escaped assassination by the devo-
tion of the negro people, who surround
cd him and interposed their bodies be-
tween the Ku-Klux and their intended
prey. The only reason for their hate
Of him wss-he was radical. Num-
bers of Republicans living in the interi-
or, have fed to Atlanta, and fear to re-
turn to their homes, where almost GER
tain death awaits them. How long is
this condition of things to continue 3
Will not the general government inter
pose its authority to protect these citi-
zens from such inhuman outrages, and
afford them some Segree of security to
life, liberty and property. Gen. Grant
will come short of the promise given
to the people, if he does not require
blood for blood at the hands of these
outlaws, until they learn TO respect the
rights Of others.

We trust the Secretary of the Treas
ury may manifest no signs of weakness
or vaciIlation in the course he has start
ed upon, of purchasing the National
Bonds, and thus not only reducing the
debt by millions through the use of the
surplus gold in the treasury, but saving
also by millions, in interest upon the
debt. Let him not be frightened by the
msnipulations of gold operators to in
crease the premium on gold, but con
tiuue to purchase even larger amounts.
With gold at 40 and bonds at ll5, he
has an opportunity not to be overlooked
of making each million of gold purchase
nearly a million and a quarter of bonds
Let him sell the gold and buy the bonds
while the operators are forcing the price
upward, and the mora he sells the bet
Ter. Heavy amounts thrown upon the
market will increase its abundance and
oSlige the operators to abandon the ef-
fort. Gold will then steadily decline,
and the country will rejoice at the re-
duction of debt and the discontinue Of
spectators. On the 18th inst, the
gold balance was reported at $lO7, ,OOO,-

ed in the treasury! Let it be applied,
except au amount sufficient to meet the
requirements of the government, to IL
quidating the public debt, and the coun-
try will derive a practical benefit from
it The quickest, surest, safest way to
a resumption of specie payment, is TO
wipe out the public debt, not hoard the
