The eBIack M1ltt1a-BrutaI Attack Upon
Two White Men-BRyOnets and Brick
bats-A Narrow EGcRpe.

The eBIack M1lttIa-Brutal Attack Upon
Two White Men-Bayonets and Brick
bats-A Narrow Eacape.
A brutal attack, wholly without provo
cation, was made upon Driver Davis and
Conductor ToOmer, of King street car No.
/, at about eight O'Clock last night The
offenders were company of negro militia.
armed to the teeth with approved rifles and
fixed bayonets.
It appears that car No. was going up
King street, when it overlook the company
of negro militiamen, who were marching
on the track. The car haulted three times
to allow the black guard to get out Of the
way, and the car being then behind time
the conductor rang the bell for the driver
to go ahead. Instantly the mlltlamen,
cursing like demons, surrounded the car,
brandishiug their weapons over the head
of the driver. One squad seized the horse
and dragged it to the side Of the car. The
driver stood 10 his post, and was then
struck over the head with a clubbed rifle
This blow cut the hand badly and disabled
the driver. The conductor ran to his as
sistance and helped him into the car. -
Now the militiamen turned upon the con
ductor, and struck him heavily upon the
shoulder.
Those of the militia who could not reach
the car with their bayonets then opened
an active fire with brlckEatS. with these
missiles some of the car windows were
smashed to pieces. The militia were now
thoroughly aroused. but were toned down
by an officer of the police. His arrival
saved the conductor and driver from worse
violence and the car from destruction. AS
soon as the road was clear the conductor
and driver went on to the upper guard
house, where they lodged the complaint.
We are not advised, however, of the names
of the rioters, or of the company to which
| they belong.
This incident shows what the whites
have to expect, when the armed militia
men, at fifty to one, attack unarmed citi-
zens. These negroes are not fit to be
trusted with deadly weapons /; but the de-
vii must be fought with fire, and if the
blacks are not disarmed. the whites must
arm at once That is the long and short of
it.-CAarleston Neacs, 28H.
