TIE t.WuITE MANS, PARTY"..sAN
ILLUSTRATIVE CASE,

Our Charleston corsespon dent this morning
develops q case Of unusual Interest, N Social
as we'll as political aspects 1tseems that on the
3Oth ultimo cowardly and brutal assault was
made on Mr.. Atkinson, editor Of the Journal,
on account Of 4 personal communication which
appeared 10 ia columns. The facts alleged
are in brief these: scurrillous report Of the
Parker SbuFg Convention appeared in the Ka-
nawha Republican and was attributed 70 one
Phil. Snyder, a Democrat, who bad attended
as q member Of the Charleston Band. The
burden OF this report was the usual Democrat
ic scurrility about the colored delegates TO the
Convention. This Snyder, iii alleged, has
brother who some years ago openly married
colored woman in Charleston, and has since
lived with her, as it was his duty to do after
espousine her, in the holy state Of wedloek.--
This welded brother is also Democrat.
Under the circumstances, 1t is not strange
that the Repnblean's report. being attributed TO
Snyder No. l provoked the retort quoted in
the letter Of our correspondent. All the other
steps IN the little tragedy TO which this paved
the way followed in easy and natural order.
Whether Mr. Snyder did write the Repsbliedn's
report or not, his social relations had been al
luded to and could be indicated in but one
way and that was by punching somebody's
head. The welded brother whose domestic
altar had thus heen fudely unRelleuI was h4SS
obliged for his vindicatlon 10 punch some.
body's head. The frate chiFalry Of the town
who felt that it would be very dangerous
precedent to permit such an allusiOn to prac-
tical Democratic miscegination opRsG unpun-
ished, felt that il was necessary to their vindi
cation that somebody's head should be punch.
ed. In accordance with this general neeessi'
ty, the rufianly programme was carried out,
and the rOtort In the Journal was answered in
the only way, we infer, that it could be ans
wered, by mnrderous assault on the editor.
The Charleston chivalry are mistaken if they
suppose they make anything by these argu.
meats, the steel knUckles and the club They
do not change the facts in the present case;
nor de they silence comment on them. In
deed they only advertise tho one to the coun-
ay and provoke the other. These fellows
have several lessons to learn, and one is that
only those who ara without sin should cast the
first stone. If they insist on abusing their
political opponents in terms SO gross as many
Of them employ, they must expeet and tolerate
Legitimate reply.
The only thing to be regretted seems TO be,
that Mr.. Atkinson was not armed and prepar.
ed to defend himself.
