RADICAL KU.KLUX.
They are Indicted by the Circui
Court i'm Lewis County Kentucky.

They are Inu1cteO Dy the circuit
Court I'm Lewis County Kentucky.
The Maysville Bulletin mentions a
case OF "Ku-Klux outrage" in Lewis
county, Kentucky, and says:
The Lewis Circuit Court last week
had some Of the ring-leaders before it,
and held them in heavy bonds to keep
the peace, and also to answer indict'
ments against them for "riot, and con.
spiracy to drive citizen from the pos.
session of his property and to commi,
murder" The proof heard in court on
the question OF bail developed these
facts: James II. Coleman and Van
Fitch, his son-in.law, living near Kin
neconick, undertook to drive Elijah
Thomas and his family from the posses.
sion of a piece Of land, (about fifty
acres, J which Thomas had bought Of
Coleman, but not fully paid for; and
for that purpose had induced some
twenty or thirty of his friends to assem-
bic at Coleman's house and there pledge
themselves to drive Thomas and his
family off, even if murder were neces-
sary, and if they killed any person in
the attempt they were to stand by each
other and swear themselves out OF
trouble. ln pursuance Of this consplr-
acy, they went to Thomas house in the
MI ht armed with pistols and shot-guns
and demanded in a boisterous and
threatening manner that Thomas should
come out. Mrs. Thomas appeared and
told them her husband should not ap,
pear. The conspirators consulted awhile
and determined TO prepare and post up
written notice, requiring Mr.. Thomas
TO leave by the following Friday, and il
he did not obey they were then to hang
him. A notice accordingly was posted
upon the premises, as follows:
BEWARE
You have till Friday to leave, or take
the consequences. X. X. X.
The crowd then fired a volley from
their weapons and left the premises.
Mr.. Thomas and his family terrified by
these demonstrations, the next day
abandoned their home and property and
moved of to the neighborhood Of Vance,
burg. In a day or so after their depart
ure the house of Thomas was burned
to ashes. He is poor man with a
large family, and is thus ruined 10y the
violence and lawlessness Of these men.
The Grand Jury indicted as many Of
the conspirators as conld be identified
by the proof. A true bill was found
against James II. Coleman, Van Fitch
James Davis, VIM. |. Holland, Wash
ington Bair, Asa Thomas, Francis Fo
lev, Henry Steddin, Frank Rigdon
Elias Rigdon, Hiram Brannam, Wash.
Stevenson and some others for riot and
conspiracy to drive a citizen from his
home, and to commit murder. With
the exception OF two Of these persons
who are tenants of Mr.. Coleman, they
all belong to the Radical party. Mr..
Thomas and his sons are Democrats,
The disorder had no political origin
but grew out of the determination Of
Mr. Coleman to possess himselfillegally
Of the land occupied by Mr.. Thomas
and Mr.. Coleman called upon his ten
ants and political friends to aid him in
that wrongful purpose. They are now
in the hands of the law.

TIE Federal grand jury sitting dur
ing the recent term Of the United States
Court in Rochester, New York, passed
resolutions condemning the sueaking
and mean system Of employing spies
and informers by the Internal Reve-
nue. Bureau, at Washington. The jury
also declared that "for illegal voting
the proper place for correction is in our
State courts" 1t is a good sign when a
Federal grand jury, composed of Re
publicaus, expresses such opinions.

TIE Democratic Convention at Har,
risburg last Wednesday embodied in its
platform and commended as "well
known and frequently announced Dem
ocratic doctrine" the following eloquent
passage from Senator CARL ScHURz s
St. Louis speech:
81 consider it one Of the most pres
sing needs Of our day that we should re-
turn to the sound practice of Constitu-
tional Government The safeguards of
our common rights and liberties con-
tanned in the Constitution are too sacred
and valuable boon to be permanently
jeopardized in providing for a passing
emergency. 1t is time that the Ameri-
can people open their eyes to the dan
gerous character Of this tendency and
that neither a great name nor an object
appealing to our sympathies should be
permitted to disguise it. As for me, /
have seen the working of irresponsible
power and personal government in 9TH
er countries, and / may assure my con-
stitueuts that while / am citizen OF
this Republic. l shall struggle to the
last gasp against its introduction here.

Last year when the Willows were goldsus
That skirted the rivers shore,
And spring in her ehiuing mantle,
Abroad in the land once more
When the air was full of the fragrance
And promise Of rosy June, M
She wandered beside her lover, ; ~
Aa Under the swest Nay moon. sssss
And he pictured the shining futurs. :
colors Of roseate hue.
And judging his love by the strength of her
She thought that his vows were truez-
Nor dreamed that the golden summer days,
:. SO blissfully sailing by,
Were drifting her out on the rushing tide
That leads to eternity. t9414
The summer faded and autumn came,
Aud the wintry blasts grew chill,
9 And all forsaken and desolate,
She mourned DER the coming ill. 50 Z
And oft through the dim night watches, +
She works With 1 cry Of pain,
And holding the pale hand toward the light,
She looked for the ring in vain.
Yet never once in he's dark despair
Did she utter word of hate asa ~
For the faithless one whose broken VOW
So surely had sealed her fate.
And when on the frst spring sunshine
She looked with her dying eyes,
Her face put on the radiant look
Itweareth now in the skies.
As she said, as there room in Heaven for
me-
ia Win the angels have me theref
God knoweth best-I forgive him all,
And the angels heard her prayer.
For Christ the merciful Savior said,
When he walked the earth with men,
"Unto them that love there is much for
given"
And "neither do condemn"
