SENATOR BLAIR's Kr-KLux EXPERIENCE -
His INVESTIGATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS ST
Louis, Nov. 2l.-A Republican reporter, in
terviewed Senator Blair yesterday with regard
to his observation MS member of the Ku- Klux
committee which has just closed its investiga-
tons in Alabama and Mississippi Mr.. Blair
saws that The evidence taken at Huntsville
Alabama, showed that there existed wholesale
plundering carried on through the govern
ment and individual acts of negroes, in conse-
quenee of which the people in many instances
were driven to take the law in their own
hands 10 protect their property, by inficting
punishment on the negroes. 1t was not shown
in any instance that these acts had ANYTHING
ito do with politics
There are many instances of arson, for plum
der or revenge, and great many instances of
rape, which were instantly and violently pun
ished. Apart from these things there is no
more violence in the South than in any other
part of the country.
The Imprisonment of negroes docs not re-
press plundering by them; they do not regard
it as punishment; but on the contrary, the
prison is more comfortable than their cabins,
and il is no disgrace TO be incarceraed
Some three hundred indictments have been
found against whites in the T. States Court,
under the hu-klux law, on very flimsv pre-
fences in a majority of eases. The enforcement
act is regarded as arbitrary and illegal, in
volving great loss aud expense.
THRILLING ScESE IN A GATHpLIc CnuRoH. On
Thursday morning, of last week, during the
nine o clock service at the Church of ST. John
the Evangelist in New York, scene took
place that struck terror into the heart of every
mother present. Father Mcmahon, while ear
neslly addressing his congregation, was inter
rupted by one of his assistants handing him a
note On perusing it he remarked ''If there
is lady present by the name of Curtis she
will please follow me at once TO the clergy
room, adding shat something had occurred
ut her home since she left ii one hour ago. y
There wasa general stir throughout the as
sembiy, and presently lady arose and made
her way toward the front of the church. the
priest following her out. lie shortly returned,
however, saying the lady who had responded
TO the summons was the wrong person. Ii was
some other Mrs Curtis whose attention he de-
sired to attract but one moved he con-
tinued that the child of the woman whose at |

CORRUPTION UNMAsKED.

The people of Tennessee have not, we
know, very exalted opinion of the de-
funct General Assembly, but we do not
believe that half of their corruptions and
incompetency are yet suspected. There
are some honest men connected with the
present State Government, and when they
know of rascality or incompetency they
make it public, for the good of the people.
We have had occasion heretofore to notice
the investigation made by special COM
mittee of the Assembly upon the charges
preferred by DIR. VIII. Morrow, Treasurer
of the State, against Clay Roberts, one of
the Clerks of the Legislature. We have,
from what we deem very reliable source,
some further information as to the charges,
evidence and report of that proceeding,
which we deem so Characteristic of the
last General Assembly that we propose to
make some comments upon them.
: The first charge made by DR.. Morrow
was that Roberts had antedated nearly
four months his commission as Claim
Commissioner, given him by Governor
Senter, so as to draw nearly four months
pay to which he was not entitled.
On the investigation by the committee,
profert of the commission was demanded
to prove the charge, but Roberts answered

THE WORK WE ARE DOING.

! We are glad to say that our articles on
East Tennessee are attracting the attention
of very superior class of immigrants in
every Northern State, who write us very
encouraging letters, and say they are de-
termined to come and give East Tonnes
see a trial. The information We are giving
is just what is needed. The present win
ter in the North has been a very severe
one, and hundreds and thousands have,
because of its intense cold, been forced to
decide in favor of our milder climate. We
received by yesterdays mail one, sixteen
letters, eleven Of which contained subscrip-
tions for our weekly, and five orders for
specimen copies. In the past sixty days
we have received over five hundred such
letters. We are new sending out to the
different States of the North, about that
number of the WEEKLY CHRONICLE, on ac-
count of our East Tennessee articles. They
reach, at the very lowest estimate, over
three thousand readers, all of whom are
persons looking to East Tennessee for
homes. We are not exaggerating the ac-
tual facts. We have letters to show the
truth of our statements. Some of our sub
scribers write that they loan their papers
out in their neighborhoods and never get
to see them after the first day, and that our
information is just what thay want.
In our yesterdays mail, we had letter
John Perene, Norwich, Connecticut. He
says at sunrise, on February 9Th, the ther-
mometer there stood at 14o 6eloU zero.
On that morning at o'clock, the Their
mometer at Knoxville stood at 400 above
zero. This difference we ask our friends
North to notice.
We call the attention of our people to
these facts, in the hope that they may soon
realize the good that might be done East
Tennessee bya little effort to circulate facts
about it and to induce people to come here
to live, and go vigorously about doing 1t.
