Rescued from the Hands of the Mob
Our Citizens Out In FOrce-The Votes at
the Various Prscincts-In cIdenta of the
Day, etc, etc.
From the Charleston Coulter
Without taking iuto consideration the
result Of the election that took place yt s.
terday. old Charleston is to be coDgrAtu-
lated. Our city has passed thi oUgh te-
we're trial. and her citizens, young and
old, have done the mselves credit. They
have rescued the city from the hands + an
Infatuated mob of negroes, melted to deeds
of violence by the very city authorities,
who should have preserved the peace, and
this is a good and noble work. 1t has
never been our duty 10 record the events
of IN election with more pride, in our city
and her sons than that which we now feel.
From earliest dawn, the people, old and
young, ricL aud poor, left their homes,
gathered at tie polls and rem incl there
during the entire day. With scarcely u
single exception business was entirely SIS
pended aud the rubbIe who thought to
take and keep possession CT the polls, were
beaten from their stan lpoinis, and put tC
shame The rabble who were morally, il
not openly sustained by the police and
city authorities, made but faint demon
strations, AID our city was saved from
bloodshed. TT is itself was g'oriou:
work-oue Of which our ci.iZens may well
be proud.

Two factions OF the Radical party are
contending for supremacy in Louisiana.
One is led by Governor Yarmouth, white;
the other by Lieutenant. Governor Dunn,
colored. Thus far the Yarmouth party
have the advantage. But the Dunn men
are bold, defiant and active, and may vet
win the fight. General Grants brother
in-law, Casey, is Collector of the Port of
New Orleans, and is using the Federal
patronage for the purpose Of securing the
delegation from Louisiana for the re-
nomination of his illustrious relative. Be-
tween the contending factions there is a
fair chance that the Radical party will be
ground to atoms.

six Com munigts had taken refuge in Pere

their ammunition was exhausted. The
Communists had fought behind toombs-
tones, monuments and trees with great
desperation, when, finding all their am
mnnition gone, they grouped Themselves
together and laid down their arms.
Said tie Versailles commander i:
"Wil you surrender 2" s'No Vive Ia

upon the Communists to surrender. mo |!
