CANS sCoURGED OR THREATENED - THE
PARTY DEM0RALIZED.
WASHINGTON, Monday, May 49, 1871.
A prominent Bureau officer now travelling IN
the south writes from North Carolina an interesting ac
count OF the situation there He states that the hostility
against schools seems to be the increase in the rural
counties and of the principal lines OF travel IL mas eA
tended 40 far that threats in several instances nave
even been made against teachers employed under the
Peabody Trust.
As to KuKux outrages, there appears 70 Do decrease
in the number OF the more violent acts though there Is
a decided extension OF tho terrOrzing process Inc
counties wherein Gov Holden proclaimed martial law
are chiefly troubled at this time by midnight riders VINO
keep up state constant alarm among the coored poo
ple by their presence and threats, without committing
acts OF bodily violence In number or other counes,
however where hitherto very few Ku-Klux have been
seen the Khan are very active occasionally scourg-
ing some active Republican and continually threatening
Others The effect OF these proceedings, as well a. or
the removal OF Gov Holden, has been to demoaze the
Republicans I'm the country districts. The acting Cover
nor believes that there IS Republican majority IN the
state as do all the leading Unonsts but owing to the
efforts OF the Ku-Klux, they fear 1t will DC impossible to
bring out our strength The Democracy are in the
meanwhile very active and confident.
