THE MERIDIAN RIOT.

The Memphis AraIa,cho, one of the
most moderate and reasonable of our DEM
ocratic exchanges, has the following in re-
ference to the disgraceful riot at Meridian,
Miss:
'tHad the matter ended with the shooting of
the murderers of the Justice who sat there TO
perform his duty, public opinion would have
decided that retrbutive justice had but aken its
course. But we fear it may turn out that of
those killed during the tempest of passion Mon
day night, not more than one or two were di-
rectly or Indirectly concerned in either the ar
son or murder; that in its frenzy the mob shed
the blood of innocent persons; and that in this
instance, as in the exercise of mob law gener-
ally, the guiltless have suffered death for the
guilty. If only those stained with crime thus
expiated their damning deeds, few would make
deep scrutiny into the manner of their taking
off; but, unfortunately, when the blood is
heated, distinctions are lost sight of, and men
forget the difference between offending individ-
uals and unoffending classes Let the laws take
their course. They may, in some instances fail
10 meet the ends Of justice but there is no other
arbiter TO which we can appeal without drifting
into anarchy and bloodshed. ."

THE LARGEST CIRCULATION
Of Any Daily Published in East Tennessee.

Col. WILLIAM McMIcHAEL, of Phila-
delphia, who went out with the st. Do
mingo Commissioners, has returned, and,
as we learn from the Cincinnati Gazette,
gives it as his opinion that they will report
in favor of annexation. He bases his judg-
ment, not upon any opinion expressed by
the Commissioners, but their report OF
facts was SO favorable that Mr.. McDIichael
feels warranted in saying that the report
will recommend the annexation of the
Island. The feeling among the journalists
when he left was that the Commissioners
were all in favor of annexation. He had
conversed with Fred. Douglass just before
leaving, who authorized him to say that
he Douglass was in favor of annexation.
General Sigel was on an expedition when
the Tybee sailed, but had expressed him.
self in this direction. Nothing that would
transpire, the speaker believed, was apt to
change the present views of the Commits
sioners.

East Tennessee Fever in Pennsylyania.

HYDE PARK, PENN, March Sd, 1871.
Editors of the Kiao1ville Chronicle:
All of his fellow-citizens will be glad to
know that Mr.. David Richards, from that
city, has arrived safe here. He is present
ing attractively the advantages of Tennes-
see. Tyranny is as lively here, and as de-
termined as ever to use every means within
its grasp to gain dominion and supremacy
over labor and laboring men. The battle
is raging, and the conflict desperate From
thirty to forty thousand people are idle
around the anthracite coal mines only,
besides the thousands that are suffering
indirectly from the same cause-knocking
everything in the head and blighting all
prospects. However, Tennessee is as fresh
as ever on the brain, and will, as soon as
ever work is resumed, have its share Of at
tention by all classes of hand-workmen.
Emigration being the most popular theme
of the day in these parts, Tennessee stands
now, among the miners and iron men,
like King Saul among his brethren-from
his shoulder up, taller than them all. Ari-
IONA, Kansas, Virginia and Patagonia are
up for competition, but Tennessee takes the
palm" by considerable difference.
What is already known of the favorable
climate, the sparkling springs and brooks,
the fertile soil, the geological resources of
Tennessee, added to the plain statements
of Mr.. Richards, and the great weight OF
oppression in these parts, turns the scale
entirely in its favor.

If there is any colored man in all this
country who has lingering doubt as to
the Democratic policy towards his race, his
attention is directed to Kentucky. There
Democracy has its own way in every re-
spect. Every department of the State
Government is entirely Democratic. The
State policy is pure, unauthorized Demoo-
racy of the strictest sort. The Republi-
cans are so far in the minority as not to
present the slightest obstacle in the way OF
q rigid enforcement of the views Of Demo-
Gratis. Under this state of circumstances,
we not only see colored mail agents driven
from their routes by Kuklux, but we see
the Legislature in session without pro-
viding any adequate means for the sup
preston of violence They absolutely re-
fuse to pass a law giving colored men the
right to testify in courts of justice. In the
Democratic courts of that Democratic
State, we have the spectacle presented, in
the light of the nineteenth century, of
men being excluded from the privileges of
courts of justice, merely on account of the
color of their skin.

WE are not surprised that newspaper
SO lost to all sense of journalistic honor
ana decency as TO open it's columns
for cruel and malicious libel, for the-piti-.
fui sum Of thirty odd dollars, should not
De able to distinguish the difference be-
tween truth and falsehood. The Wing
and Register has repeatedly charged us
with opening our columns for H5elous ar
ticles. and then complaining of them for
doing the same thing. We deem this
charge worthy of notice only because we
desire to have our readers understand that
the Wig and Register cannot appreciate
the difference between a series of articles
exposing notorious corruption on the part
of men holding public positions-matter
| about which the public hare q right to
k',o'O and rant to knotp-and an obscene,
brutal libel, that invaded the home circle
of private citizen, lacerated the feelings
of innocent, cultivated and esteemed la
dies, and gave circulation to one of the
most cruel, malevolent and false libels we
have ever seen. What we published was
concerning the official conduct of Off
GERS of an important railroad, in which
large amount of the peoples money was
involved several members of the last
Legislature being implicated matters of a
public nature, matters which the author
has repeatedly and publicly affirmed to be
true, and challenged the parties accused to
controvert: what the Wing and Register
published was false, and they dared not
attempt to justifyit. This is the difference
in the character of the publications, and
we know an intelligent community will
appreciate that difference Our contem-
porary says we voluntarily entered into the
work of libeling citizens. In one sense,
what we did was voluntary. The original
proprietors of this paper were asked to
publish the series of articles referred to,
and believing them matters of public con-
Germ, calculated to agitate and bring about
reforms in the management of public
monies, they consented. They never ask
ed, received or were offered one cent for
the useof their columns. With their views
of the public interest attaching TO, the
charges preferred, they would not accept
pay for the space occupied. In this sense,
our action was voluntary. Theirs, on the
other hand, was n,ercenory. They defend
their action, ina measure, because the
libel was paid for Upon the same prin
ciple they might open their columns to
publish any indecent thing, if accompanied
with cash. But we have done with this
subject. We are not intending to discuss
the merits of the action of the courts We
have said what we have more to prevent
this community from passing an unjust
judgment on the action of Judge Hall and
the jury that tried the case, by accepting
the lVhig's statements as true, than from
a desire to indulge further in this contro-
versey. AS to our course in the premises,
or as to who provoked the controversy,
we are content to let our readers judge for
themselves.

WHAT MIGHT SECURE PEACE.

We have hardly witnessed the close of
the bloody and exhausting war between
Germany and France, ere our attention is
attracted to the formidable Preparations
being made by other European powers for
prosecuting future wars with the same
vigor and sanguinary results that charac-
terized the one just closed. England, stu
ated by nature SO as to need but little arti-
fetal protection, alarmed at the overshad-
owing position that Germany attains by
her conquest of France, begins the most
alarmAg preparations for what she is
pleased TO term defense. Russia, OF the
other confine of Europe, embracing as
much territory as the other powers COM
bined, directs her immense resources in
men and means to the same defensive (?)
preparations. The result of such amiable
ca intentions must be that a mere spark,
that, in America, would ignite nothing,
will fall in the arsenals and magazines of
Europe, primed for war, and bring millions
of men to death and suffering on bloody
battle-fields. There is something even in
the bare contemplation of nations thus
prepared for war to make us thankful that
whatever other ills we as people are sub
iected to, we are not burdened with taxes
levied to keep us always ready to slaugh-
ter our neighbors. We have cause to be
thankful that we have territory enough to
prevent US cutting each others threats
for a few thousand square miles of dirt.
There is just as much real cause fer war
between Tennessee and Georgia or Mis-
souri, as there is between Germany and
England. There is no probability that We
will go to war, but if we deliberately went
TO work to prepare for it, We dare say we
would soon have it to our hearts content.
War is often brought about just because
nations are ready for it. Nothing would
go much tend to insure peace in Europe as
a general disarmament. England, instead
ofpreparing for war, ought to strive for a
general disbanding of armies. She can
with more safety do it than any other pow
er, and her example would do good.
