The New York Tribune hiss raised q
Radical howl over the unfortunate
WALLACE-DARDEN fgacss at Warren
ton, Georgia, and ~endeavors, by sup
preston OF facts, to give the Iynchirg Of
DR.. DARDEN an altogether political
eoloring. 1t justiies the brutal and
cowardly murder Of WALLACE by OAR
DIN, but condemns the act Of the ciii-
ze0s who shot the murderer 10 death.
There is no word OF sympathy for the
unfortunate editor killed by q concealed
enemy, hut there are strong words
of condemnation for the punishment
meted to the murderer, and al because
il was announced in the first telegram
and the only one the Tribune published,
that he was q Radical. Tae second dis

men belonged to the Democratic party,

the whole home staff OF the Tribune,
which being communicated to the car
pet.bag correspondent in Georgia, that
worthy joins in the howl, and forthwith
twits Congress with indifference to the
loyal situation in the Empire State. He
asks !: /" How much longer must we wait
" for the organization Of a legal and loyal
Legislature that will pass laws to pro-
" tect cur lives, and which the military,
under orders Of q loyal President, can
" sssist in carrying out ?p Here is an
opportunity, he thinks, for q trial Of
the peculiarly philanthropic hanging
policy so e~lOqusntly elaborated by
WENDELL PHILLIPS. How dare th csc

Admitting that DARDEN did murder
WALLACE, that was nothing, he was
only 8 Democrat and a rebel. When the
cisizenS indignant at tbs cowardics OF
DARDEN, take him out OF jail andIshoot
him to death, the tune is changed, snd
forthwith the whole South is
threatened with determination and
