BLOODY DAY.

Julyl2th was bloody day in New
York For some time the Orange
men had been preparing to cele-
brate that day as an anniversary
dear to them, and repeated threats
had been made by the Catholic
mob that 1t should not be done with
out blood. Gov. Hoffman decided,
justly too, that the Orangemen had
as good right to parade on that day as
other organizations, sects, clans and
classes h ave on days of their choos-
inc. and announced his determina-
ton to protect the procession from
the mob, which was etfectually done,
but few if any of the participants in
the exercises being hurt, though in the
attacks on them, some forty of the
mob were killed, and hundreds

Capt. Talliffero, Captain in the
Confederate navy, planter near Ma
con, Miss, testified before the Ku-
Klux committee on thel5th that with
in the past year, in that county, Is col
ored men were killed and a numb er
whipped. There is an organization
of Kuklux in that county, he had at
tended three or four meetings of it,
although he had never taken the re
CURED oath. The supposition of
those present was that he was a mem
Der of the Khan, and that he had been
initiated by some members of the
band who can swear in members.
His friends and neighbors all belong
ed to the band. The witness gave
the common details of the organiza-
tons, signs, grips, &c. On one &C.
casion he went on and said that he
was with the band and was present
at the whipping of several colored
men, but after this he did not go any
more. Their object was to obtain
the entire control OF the negroes and
make them vote as their Leaders re-
CURED. No prosecution has or would
be instituted in that county. and no
one dare prosecute. He was a wit
ness before the Grand Jury at Ok
ford, and on his testimony several of
the members of the KuKlux were in
dicted.

Adams was relating to "Quincy'
some of the points in Judge Negus'
remarks and among others mention
ed his description of his first visit
to Washington, and what a tough
time he had of it. Right here "Quin'

following language: "The contound,

stopped at. If he wanted to con,

ORGANIZE.

The Republican Primary Elections
will be held in this county on Satur-
day, August II, to put in nomination
candidates for the various offices,
after which the campaign will
be fairly open-the oppo, sition
having already put up their vic
tins for the political game of ten
pins. A strong fight will be made
in Iowa this fall, mot with the hope
on the part of the opposition of sue
ceeding, but with view to cutting
down the large majority in the Re-
publican stronghold of the West, to
encourage and embolden the De-
mocracy in other States, to make a
strong fight next year tor the elector-
al vote. They have no hopes of car
rying Iowa over to the ranks Of Cop
perbottom Democracy, but if they
can cut down our boosted 10000 ma
Jority to one-half that number, do
you not see the effect it will have on
both parties in the Presidential cleo
ton Of 1872. Our enemies will be
strengthened, our friends discourag-
ed. Let us then do our duty. Let
every man work for the success of
the whole ticket; and to do this
more effectually, we think every
township should have an organlza-
ton, with regular meetings, good
active, working officers, who will see
that speakers and documents are sup
piled in abundance. This can be
done, and it will pay. Will you do
it?

Ills, a paper that would have de-
lighted in poisoning every bluecoat

sued decayed bacon and pork, wormy
hard tack, sour -four, black, filthy SUI
gar, and that indescribable compound
of nastiness known as roasted ground
coffee" For this crime they pro-
pose to elect Knapp. We venture
that the rations, poor as they are de-
