"IIyPOcriIes, RascaIs, ThieVes!''

These are the terms which Mr.. Greeley
of the N. Y. Tribune applies to the adj.
venturers in the South who have given an
odious significance to the title Carpet
Bagger. Replying to an article in the
Charleston Republican upbraiding him
for his structures upon this despicable
class, Mr.. Greeley says:
No man need be ashamed that he is called
carpet-bagger, il carpet-baggers do moth
ing to be ashamed Of. 1t is che truth that
some carpet-baggers, having worked them
selves into office at the South, have there
proved hypOcrites, rdscdLs, thieves, that has
made the term obnoxious, and thus discred-
tied good and worthy men.
And Mr.. Greeley proceeds to argue
that the way for the men who are really
worthy among this class to rid the name
of its odium is to purge their party of
those who properly deserve the epithets
he applies. The misfortune to Radical
ism will be that when the purging pro-
cess is finished there will be none left of
its leaders. The Tribune concludes:
With candidates known TO be uniformly
honest and worthy, the Republicans can car
~ the South, though their adversaries yell
''carpet-bagger! from this till doomsday
With thieves and villains leading their hosts
they will be beaten TO death, and fifty Tri-
Dunes could not save them. We entreat
them to Omprehend in season that they can
not be saved by concealing or palliating the
thefts, but only by exposing, denouncing and
dtscdrding the there's.
The very opposite Of the policy here
described is pursued. The thieves, so
far from being denounced and DISCARD
ed, as Mr.. Greeley, the great founder
and apostle of his party advises, are plac-
ed, or are permitted to thrust themselves,
into the most responsible Offices. Wher-
ever there are loaves and fishes. these
Shiny vermin are to be found-in the
Legislative halls; on the Bench; in all
the departments of the government, from
the highest to the lowest. They comprise
a huge Ring into which they have ad-
mitted chosen number of scalawags.
with whom they divide the plnnder which.
under the name of law, they have seized
from the impoverished Taxpayers.
Where the whole mass is essentially cor
rupt, the purging process inside the spoiIs
party, recommended by the Tribune, will
not avail to relieve the people. There is
put one remedy, and that is for the hon. |
'st masses to raise in body and by the |
'eaceable agency Of the ballot-box drive
he whole concern from the places which
hey employ for carrying on their avoca-
ion as thieves"

YazOO County Registration.

The complete registration returns in
Yazoo are given as follows:
Whites, 1,241
BLACKS 3,UOO
This shows falling off of voters from
the whites, under the enumeration OF
1S70-of 1914 votes and from the blacks
Island increases the black majority
eight votes in the county, over the EMU
meration of 1870, when the majority of
negro votes in the State was two thou
sand two hundred and twenty-eight.
1t would be uncandid to withhold our
surprise at the result in Yazoo. True, the
falling off is a mere cipher and will effect
nothing so far as the general result is
coneerned-but it indicates an indiffer-
ence-or the apathy of despair--in a
quarter where we had ground to hope for
the exhibition of different spirit. The
colored people cannot be expected to be
won away from the bad influence of the
carpet-baggers and enrolled in the party
of deliverance from their misrule, when
they are surrounded by examples of sui
len Indifference, or abandoned hope
among the whites who are presumed to
be better informed. The majority of the
former is large, but there are no numbers
invincible against the desperate resolve
and united effort of an intelligent minor
ity who are inspired by true realization
of the necessity of rescuing the State
government from the whirlpool of social
and civil disorder and bank
ruptcy into which it is being carried by
the desperate adventures who have been
put by the bayonet in control of all its
To the Conservatives-to the opposers
of Radical misrule all over the State
who are yet to record their names on
the voting lists, we point to the result in
Yazoo as warning.
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1871-08-31

The opposers of Radical misrule, must
not overlook the importance of having
the cooperation of the colored voters
The informed must take pains to en-
tighten the uniformed.
They must be patient and dilgent in
heading them out of the darkness of error
and prejudice into the light of truth and
the habit of calm reflection.
Show them that the carpet-bag adven-
turers are the foes of both races. They
foment strife for indiSidual benefit
They are neither doctors to attend them
in sickness-nor lawyers to plead their
cause in court-nor farmers to give them
employment-nor merchants to furnish
accommodations for making their crops
but simply ofice-holders without any
other vocation but to humbug the blacks
and plumber both races.
Show them that the enormous tax
levied by these landless adventures, upon
land, is tax on the labor of the colored
mana tax on all the land produces,
precisely as the cost of goods to merchant
is reflected on the purchaser.
Show them the injustice of the outra-
geous land and privilege tax and especi-
ally of the poll tax in which they are
directly concerned and the necessity OF
reducing it to fifty cents which would be
amply sufficient for the exigencies of the
State if the practice were abandoned Of
expanding it in extravagant furniture
contracts and employing teachers at ex
orbitant rates. Gov. Alcorn in his
special message of April 1st admitted
that the present system is utterly ex-
haustive of our resources. And added
While the average pay of teachers III
=" the Northern schools is less than $500
ga year, rates here Gin Mississippi vary
&C from s720 to 81 20 a year. " That
is, that these teachers are imported from
the rich North where they are getting
$500 to the impoverished South where
they are paid by the Ring into which they
are initiated, three, four, five and even
six times that amount.
Remind them that when by this
wholesale system of plumber the carpet
baggers fill their pockets they will flee
away leaving the permanent white and
the colOred populations to work out togeth-
er their own destiny, all the poorer for hav.
ing beeen led into vain strife among them,
selves and thus having become the easy
prey of the common enemy of both.
Let every white citizen who has an
opportunity of reading and informing
himself feel that it is his duty to secure
at least one colored voter to the cause OF
peace, progress and just and economical
government. If you secure ten, it will
be all the better, for thus you will make
up for the delinquency of your neigh
Dor.
Now is the time to sow the good seed.
Soon the harvest will come.
Now is the time to cast bread upon the
waters. 1t will return ere long.
Work early.
Work late

"WHL NEVER VoTE FOR AMNESTY.
This is the declaration, fiat and plain, o.
Senator Morton, the mouth-piece of the
Administration, in his st. Louis speech.
He said:
Now, l want to be understood on the sub
ject of amnesty. / viii
NEVER VOTE FOR UNIVERSAL AMNESTY.
| may go in for a very general amnesty, but
L will never sit myself. and | will not ask
other loyal men 70 sit in the Senate of the
United States by the side of JEFF. Davis,
Breckenridge and Toombs. [Applause.l
If the Mississippi Radicals are in favor
general amnesty, as they pretend, they
are not in accord with their party leaders.
The only party who invariably speak for
amnesty-vote for amnesty-and pray
for the return of the era of good feeling
between the North and the South-are
the Democracy.

1t makes no difference what General
Lowry's political antecedents are but in
asmuch as the Pilot has alluded to them
it is well to state the facts correctly. He
was not an old line Democrat, but was an
old line Wing under former political
divisions. On the question Of secession,
he opposed the measure and voted against
it. Didn't want to build any "Chinese
Walls"-advocated every reasonable
measure of compromise between the sec
tions-but after hostilities we're precipita-
ted by the Northern Government which
in the meantime had fallen into the hands
Of the fanatics-sided with his own peo.
pie and fought it out on that line till the
end. He was in the army Of Johnston
at the surrender wearing the honors Of a
General which had been conferred by the
government Of which he was a true and
loyal supporter for gallant and meritori-
GUS conduct.
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1871-08-31

After having appointed, according to
detailed statement in the Pilot, several
hundred anti-Radicals and square-out De
mocrats to office, with full knowledge of
their political position, Governor Alcorn
makes showing of repentance by turn
ing out one of them, Mr.. j. III. Stewart
of Lincoln county. The correspondence
which is decidedly rich-and as creditable
to Mr.. Stewart as it is discraditable to the
Governor-will be found elsewhere. The
question naturally arises, why this dem
onstration of virtuous indignation and
concern about the political status of his
appointees, by the Eminent Functionary
at this late hour? Is he offering fruits
meet for repentance? Is he taking refuge
from the wrath of Ames and others, to
come? Is he writhing under the lash of
the Pilot? And why does he select Mr..
Stewart as a sacrifice to the offended gods
of Mongrelsm? Weeks ago, Mr.. Owens
of Scott county, his Sheriffalty appointee,
was nominated for the Office by the De
mocracy, of whose party he was mem
Der, and whose action he was pleased to
abide-and yet the Eminent Funct is
mute. What has he to say concerning
the case of Mr.. Sheriff Barrett of Tisho-
mingo, who proclaims that he detests the
whole tribe of carpet-baggers and scala
wags"-or concerning Mr.. Brown, anap-
pointee in Choctaw, who is candidate
for office subject to the decision of the
Democratic Conventions? Ard what is
he going to do about Judges Boone and
Davis, who are disdaining to do the work
of Radical partizans, and are giving no
aid and comfort to mongrelism. Does
he intend to make haste on the back track
after making all these appointments? Or
will he content himself with his tremen- |
dous onslaught on the Circuit Clerk of
Lincoln?

the School Law plumber, has returned
North to villify her people. He appeared
before the Outrage Committee as a first

lecturing on the horrors Of life in Missis-
