The following extract from q lady's
letter will give some idea Of the frightful
of}our people in York! County:
] YoRKV1L4R, 8. O., October %. 1871.
We are having dreadful times up here.
There are now lodged in Jail here, from
all parts ofN&he District above seventy
men in close confinement-ten in a cell.
Some of the prisoners are negroes. and,
for tho greater humiliation. OF our men,
they are put in cells with them.
All, ages are sEepfesented,l from the
beafdless youth 6f 1i4teen I'd the iioary-
headedy dyand many OF them have not the
slightest suspicion. of the, accusation
against them; except the general one OF
being Ku Kiux, or of aiding them.
There is reason to believe that witnesses
have been bribed by. Merrill, the com-
mandant Of the post hore, And man
that would curse lefenceless prisoner,
entirely in his power, as he does some OF
these, can do anything mean.
But few men OF the town have as yet
been arrested, but they say they haven't
commenced here yet. As innocence is
no protection against arrest. the object
OF the Government being to persecute, q
number Of good people have left the
country.
few weeks ago, q gentleman accused
OF being Ku Klux told Merrill if lie
could have fair trial be would stand
his chance; but be could not submit
to be tried by packed negro jury.
This gentleman has gone away, and 1
hope is safe. Such tyranny makes our
hearts burn with indignation one
minute, and the next ache at the thought
Of our utter powerlossness in, the hands
of our oppressors Unless the Lord
helps us. I see no hope Of delverance
Just think of those poor mon, upon bare
suspicion, crowded in loathsome cells,
not knowing how many days or, months
they must stay there. and when they are
taken out, to be witnessed against by
any lying negro, bribad, with Yankee
money, aud melted by Yankee hate, aud
then to be sentenced to five years in q
penitentiary by asnegro jury aud q

The grand jury Of Chester County,
composed of six whites and six negroes,
made presentment embodying the re-
suit of their investigation of the alleged
Ku Klux outrages there, and conclude
as follows:
''We, the grand jurors. upon our oaths,
are compelled to say, from the testimony
which we have tnken, and from our
knowledge of the different parts of the
County, that the allegations contained
in the proclamation of tho President of
the United States are without foundation,
and must be the result Of lsehood, ,
communicated to him by persons equally
regardless of good order and tile peace
of society,""

What lis Wanted.

Appointment Radical of this city. of
:the tcarpet-bag class, was heard to say
that he hoped that the United States
troops engaged in making arrests:iu the
up -conntry would be fred into by some
of the citizens. Then, said he, We wonld
ax them. We mention this suggestive
incident. ib order to show the animus
Of those persons who have conspired,
intrigued and worked for tho purpose of
bringing military arrests upon our. peo-
pie. It becomes our people, to act With
the greatest prudence and discretion.
We should deprecate any conduct calcu-
lated to play into the hands OF opr
unscrupnlous foes abroad and at home.
It is not unmanly. at this time, to yield
to power. Let our people everywhere
exeYcise rare discretion. At the same
time, let them cultivate o spirit that
does not despair, and faith that hopes
for better times. What there is of right
and justice in their case will ultimately
be. vindicated and will prevail.

On Wednesday morning, small colored
girl fell into James leland Creek. The
water was about forty feet deep and the
ebb tide ran very strong. A crowd of

accident, and ran to and fro screaming
with terror. They made no attem pt to
save the girl, but gentleman from

OF Union, which was the County intend

"Onr explanation of the matter ia,
that Union County owes its exemption
