A "GENTLEMAN" passed this way
Monday, who had, doubtless, been
with a crowd that bet whisky freely
and he must have been required to
''hold stakes" He seemed to be
very much fatigued, for his pedes-
trianism was not strictly the straight
est thing. At every step he would
wish to make the ground would twist
and meander as if to Illustrate his
efforts, until at last it became SO
mischieviou8ly aggrayating that it
flew up and struck him in the face.
The ground must have been serious
ly injured, for we notice since that
the city papas have had agpoultice
of tan-bark applied. As for the
man, he is still in weaving way"

THE PARK, Monday evening, pre-
scented an animated and cheering
aspect. The beautiful plats, so en-
ticingly carpeted with the verdure
of Spring, were thronged with glee-
ful children, bcwitching "swect six
teens" gay and happy maidens, and
fclicitous beaus. Some were play
ing croquct, many promonading,
while others were seated and en-
gagged in lively converse. To make
It the more charming and delicious,
waves of rich and inspiring music
floated from the ceutcr of the Park,
discoursed by the Silver Cornet
Band. The scene was one of pic
turcsqte beauty and toveliness, both
pleasing and attractive.

Mr. J. c. Shugart-Dear Sir Il take pleas
ure in giving YOU this certificate that l have
used your "Craig's Virginia Salye," with most
perfect and satisfactory results, in several instan-
ces of scalds, cuts and bruises. My Hand was

BY the use Of your Salve the healing process
was perceptably hastened and the stiffness
relaxed SO thai am now able to use my hand
with much ease

The Supreme Court of the United
States having reserved its decision in
the legal tender cases, the New York
Tribune remarks:
The effect of this decision cannot but
be to derange business. Powerful cor
porations, welding large political and
moneycd influence, ARE deeply involved
in the question, and in almost every
instance the present decision flvors
their intcrcts as against those of indid-
vidual contractors. The decision, there
fore, Injuries the poor many, and puts
immense sums in the pockets of the
rich and flourishing few corporations.
Further than this, it is a decision
which, however justified by the tech
nicalities of the law, violates common
sense. Still further, it will not be for
gotten that the first decision was
reached only after long discussion and
study, whereas the present was argued
only on Tuesday last and the decision
was arrived at yesterday. Indeed, it
is useless to conceal the fact that public
respect for the highest tribunal in the
land will be lessen ed by the reversal of
the original Judgment.

We are neither jealous nor envious of
the stream of money that flows into any
mans pocket by wilful and deceitful
abnegation of his freedom of thought
principles that are wrong and oppres-
sive in their tendencies. We take no
remorse upon ourselves for what is de-
MED us, and regret that the price of

We state it as Il reliable fact, that
hundreds of Northern men who had
intended to visit the Southern States,
with view to travel and investment
of means, have been deferred from do
ing so by the well-authcnticatcd out
RACES of the Ku-kiuX.-Fo,Ney' Press.
Very few have read or will read the
above without believing it to be one of
Forney's many daily lies.
Ifsuch information had been received,
he should have credited it to newspaper
correspondents or resident Yankees; if
the former, it should be borne in mind
that they are sent out by extremists
and are required to cXaggerate or man
ufacture reports conducive to the inter
est of their poltics-hcy Tie for 6read.
If Il resident Yankees, they are office
holders and use their lying tongues to
discourage their fellows for fear of a
division Of the spoiIs. If any have been
or are deferred by such reports, their
weakness is to be piticd and their COM
ing not desired.
1t is well known throughout the
North that tho scum of many of their
cities disgrace high places of trust in
every Southern State. If their pres
ence is endured, what have any respect
able Northerners to fear?

How ku-klux ssOutrages'' are to he Mauu-
featured.

The Holly Springs (Miss.) Reporter
contains the following revelations:
We have often expressed the belief
that large majority of the outrages in
the South are committed by Radicals
for political effect. We have now to
relate plot in Marshall county that is
in keeping with the Radical plan of re-
construction.
During the present week, plot on
the part of negroes has been discovered
to hang Il negro, and swear that the
hanging was done by the Ku-Klux.
Then the testimony, doubtless, was to
be sent to our legislators, and to the
efforts to Cypress the white people of
the South.
Six negroes living about ten miles
west of Holly Springs formed plot to
hang negro named Zel1e Raiford, liv-
ing in the neighborhood. The follow
ing negroes were concerned in the plot !:
Gus Benson and Henry Wells, living
at Mr.. Mabin's; Columbus Evans,
George Lee and Scott McRaven, living
at Mr.. BensOn's; and Arch McRaven,
living at Mrs. Brunson's.
The six negroes were to dress in dis
guise, with black caps over their heads,
and to march to Zekc Railroads cabin,
on DIR. Benson's place. They were to
hang Zeke near his cabin, and to leave
him hanging until morning. When
his body was discovered the negroes
were to circulate the report that he had
been hanged by white Ku-Klux. Arch
McRaven told the plan to his wife, who
told it to several parties. 1t finally got
to Zeke's ears, and became known all
over the neighborhood. Zeke was not
willing to be made martyr of.
The caps had been made, backing
obtained to blacken them, and every
thing was in readiness for the hanging,
which was to be done on the first
stormy or rainy night.

The Presidents Proclamation in Rela.
lion to the Enforcement % the Four.
teemth Amendment.

WAslIISGTOS, May 1.-The act of
Congress entitled an act to enforce the
provisions of the itih amendment to

and for other purposes, approved April
20, "A. ID. 1871, being Il law of cNtraor-

my duty to issue this, my proclama-
ton, calling the attention Of the people
Of the United States thereto, cnjoining

upon all public officers, to be Jealous in
the enforcement thereof, aud warning
all persons to abstain from committing
any of the acts thereby prohibited.
This law of Congress applies to all parts
of the United States and Will I've en-
forced everywhere TO the extent OF the
powers vested III the Executive, but
inas,nuch as the necessity therefor Is
well known TO have been caused chiefly
by persistent violations of the rights of

Fully sensible OF nc responsibility
imposed upon the Executive by the act

is now called, and reluctant to call into

of our hate unhappy civil strife may be

easily reached by acpuicSccncc in the
| results of the conflict now written in
our Constitution, and by the due and
proper enforcement of equal, just and

country.
The failure Of loua! communities to

poses upon the National Government

SOUTHERN FORTITUDE,

Tho burdens imposed upon our people
by the Radical party, in the way of ig-
norant lawmakers, oppressive laws,
Venal rulers, acknowledgements and
ruinous taxation, arc without a parallel.
The vindictiNe proclivities of the New
England heart have exhausted the walls
of its wrath in the ingenuity of its SUBJ
version of law and constitutional re-
straints and in trumping up crimes
that have no existence save in their
wishes and Vaccinations, all in the
hope of breaking or seducing the proud
and dignitied bearing Of the South.
AS no man could be frightened into
submission, the more insidious means
of purchasing silence or support was re-
sorted to, and every man within our
knowledge who has preferred base Lucre
to the freedom of thought now enjoys
one or more of the avenues of plumber
to the Public Treasury.
Considering the opportunities that
offer, in the loose and irresponsible
manner in which public business is con-
Quoted, to regain what has been lost
and amassing fortune upon it, it is
truly astonishing and worthy of the
best days of any country, that the
temptation has corrupted so few from
among the manhood of the South An
incorruptible people! Adversely is the
touch-stone of their greatness! Pinch
ing want may destroy them, the heel Of
the despot grind them in the dust, but
the ill gotten gains of the despoiIers of
the country cannot buy their allegiance
or corrupt their integrity.
