GARTER AND THE CoLoRED MAN.

The hostility of the Greeleyites to the
colored race has been once again illustrat-
ed in Tennessee. Where the kuklux have
their blood-stained haunts, there, indeed,
Greeley is King. Where rebel Generals
can be elected to Congress, there, also the
slave lords are supreme and Greeley SAFE
But where the original Unionists are in
the ascendancy, the Greeley negro haters
still manage to display their venom by
nominating for office some crooked-souled
Unionist, who glories in his hate for the
colored man. This kukluX spirit was well
illustrated in the nomination of William
B. Carter as the Greeley candidate for Con-
gress in the First District. Carter is a
preacher-one of those preachers who dis
dain to receive the negro as imam and
brother.n Carter was a member of the
Constitutional Convention that framed
the. new Constitution of Tennessee; and
while member, never let slip an oppor-
tunity to exhibit his hate for the colored
man. In the Nashville Banner of Janu-
airy Goth, 1870, we find the following re-
port of his speech on the question of negro
suffrage: -.
"Mr. Carter said he believed he stood al
most alone in the delegation from the east
crn end of the State in the opinion which
he held. He believed the negro ecaS toa--
able to exercise the right of suffrage right
ly and well, either for himself or his coun-
try. 1t was madness to think of invest
ing this poor, degraded race with power
over the lives and liberty of the people.
He would as soon think of clothing the
children Of Jfue gears of age with this sa-
cred right, He was the friend of the col
ored man-always had been. He looked
to the future and he would tell them that
If this right to vote were placed in their
hands, the day was not far distant when
all these hills a0ould be stained aOith the
blood of the AJrica,a. He would never
consent to do anything which would bring
down ruin on their heads. If the right tc
vote were placed i'm the hands of the negro
he would hold the balance of power il
Tennessee, and he was lntOilliRg to trus
his life and liberty in such hands,"
Carter was the only delegate from, EaS
Tennessee whoyoted to take the otaway
from the colored man. Three times in. til,
convention he voted directly or indirectly
to disfranchise the eolored men. Ant
when Carter found that the Convention
dared not snatch the ballot out of til,

PROBABLE MURDER.
Two Men Shot by Crazy Negro in Wheat
land, Mercer County.

Two Men Shot by Crazy Negro in Wheat
land, Mercer County.
The Sharpsville Adrertiser gives the
particulars of an affair which created
much excitement in Wheailand, Mercer
county. on Saturday night week Mr..
J. Sh finer, manager of the firm of Wood,
Son & Co., in that place. has a fine gar
den attached to his house, through which
runs a path to pump. where the fur
nacemen and employees of the rolling
mill are in the habit of getting their
drinking water On each side of the
path, or walk, there Is row of peach
trees.
Shaffner had in his employ a negro
named Harvey IIallow, said to be half
witted or crazy, whose time was occupied
in doing odd chores around the house.
Shaffner, it is reported, gave lIallow in
struclions to shoot any one who might
be seen taking peaches from the trees -
Aiming himself with shot gun, TIE ne
gro stood guard. Shortly before twelve
o'clock Sunday night, Hugh Cannon, au
employee of the rolling mill, went for a
pail of water, and stopped on the way
for peaches, when the negro fired, ina'ct
ing a sliyLt wound
Soon after, Michael Callahan, fur
naceman, went for water, stopped at one
of the peach trees and commenced to
shake it for the purpose of getting ripe
peaches Hallow Immediately fired at
Callahan, the charge taking effect in the
abdomen of the latter and wounding him
so seriously that he will probably die -
The news of the affair epread rapidly
and large mob was soon collected around
Shaffner's residence, threatening to lynch
both him and the negro. The iuterfe-
renee Of prominent citizens, however,
prevented violence. Sbaffner and Hal
low were arrested Monday morning and
taken to Mercer where they are now
awaiting trial.

GreeIey from a Foreign Standpoint.

In cases of doubt and disputation the
evidence and opinion of those uninterest-
ed is taken as the more just. more reason
able and more reliable. To decide and
award the prizes of the world, euch ref
erees are chosen as are affiliated in no
manner to any of the contestants, and in
this way justice is done to those who
possess genius and have acquired genuine
merit. Safely. then, in this struggle for
President may we look abroad and with
benefit consult the views of those across
the water, regarding the respective candi-
dates.
The London Times, in its issue of scv
eral days ago. speaking of Horace Gree
ley, tells us that :. his rashness of judg
ment and iooseness of speech are noto-
rious from end to era of the Union"
His honesty for years has been by
word, but that he is a sincere straight
forward man no person Pretends to allcge.
His election would surrender the negro
to the South again, would revive that old
compact and condense system of wrong
the slave dynasty-would restore to
the balls of Congress the foremost OF
those who sought to disturb our peace
and government. and. in short, endanger
all that was accomplished by the war !;
cause the thousands of patriots to have
died for nothing, made their blood to have
been shed aud their homes to have been
desolated for only the dream of national
tranquility and repose He certainly
does possess some admirable faculties and
some qualities of sterling worth; but to
exert them properly, beneicially and ef
fectively they must be employed in
sphere far different from that to which he
aspires. Grant, on the other hand. in
his career as President. has not been free
from mistakes. The humanity of his
nature has been shown in few instances
yet those who opposed him most bitterly
in 'GS-such men as Douglass. Lloyd
Garrison and Wendell Phillips-are will
ing that he should be elected rather than
accept a man so much more unfit and
Objectionable. From such reasons this
English journal. embodying the opinion
of millions of English speaking people,
seems to argue; and being a party un-
interested and unconcerned, its voice in
favor OF the man who trades not princi
Piles for success, we deem of some strength
and importance

Hoi iron-Almest Instant Death the Re-
suit.
A terrible accident occurred yesterday
morning at the American Iron Works OF
Messrs. Jones e. Laughlin. at Browns
town, resulting in the almost instant
death of boy named Louis Hoopy.
The boy was abou, thirteen years OF
age and had been employed temporarily
at the works in the place Of his brother
who had di.abled himself by burning his
hand He had been at wo'k for some
time yesterday morning when. about
FIVE o'clock. he stopped down in front OF
The rolls. Just as be did so, bar OF
red hot iron came through the rolls The
end struck him on the leg and instantly
before he could get out Of the way or
even realize bis danger, the hot iron had
been run completely through his thigh
As speedily as possible he was rescued
from his dreadful position. The main
artery of the leg was severed and the
blood was flowing in a torrent, cut he
was alive when removed. He was car
ri.d to his home near the works. and
medical attendance summoned. vi
course it was impossible to save his lite,
but he lived some fifteen minutes after
the accident. when death relieved him.
Coroner West was notified and held an
INQUEST. A verdict of accidental death
was rendered.
The family of the unfortunate boy
seem to have been remarkably unfortu
nate The father was engaged at the
works as a watchman, and about one
month ago met with an accident which
fractured one leg. Last week one of his
children fell from chair and broke its
arm. An older son, who worked at the
rolls, at.which the accident occurred yes

brother Louis had to 60 to work for him.

1t required two weeks of time for the
editors of the RepuLl'can to produce an
anewer to our article in regard to their
false charges. They replied in last
weeks paper, under the heading of
Heavy Artillery The article does
not meet the questions, namely did we
receive Judge Pomeroy's card from the
hands of Col Robinson? Were we in
structed to hand it to the Republican by
the gentleman who gave us the card
Did we say in an article in the SENTINEL
that Col. Robinson wrote the card To
all Of these points we have answered in
the negative, or in other words, said, no.
They have plainly charged us with false
hood for thus answering, yet they have
not produced single item of evidence to
sustain themselves in the charges They
have no case, as lawyer would say, and
the briefess lawyer of the corps of the
Republican concern ought to know bet
ter than to allow himself to be drifted
into such an unenviablc position Of
course the other creatures that belong to
the paper, who have not mental capacity
to distinguish a good case from bad one,
and who are blockheads in everything
except in conceit, low cunning, political
tricks, and unscrupuleus work, are not
responsible, only so far as it becomes
necessary to hold such vicious characters
in check.
Their article no more proves their
charges to be correct, than did the Ian
guge of the fallen woman, whom officers
Kerin and Robinson took to prison one
morning during court week. prove her to
be a modest, moral and virtuous woman.
The conduct and language of the woman
was the best evidences that could be pro.
duced that she was anything and every
thing but modest, moral and virtuous
woman so their article on Heavy Ar
tillery' is the best evidence that can be
produced that the charges they made are
not true. No intelligent man can be de-
ceived by such trash. 1t was not writ
ten for intelligent people 1t was in
tended for blockheads and blackguards.
We give these INSCRIPTIONS fellows
another chance to meet and prove their
charges. Let them choose a man; we
will choose one; the two men chosen
shall choose third To this committee
of three, and as many spectators as may
wish to be present. we will state the
name of the gentleman who gave us

OF citizens with the Authorities s-Indig.

CHICAGO. Sep, l3.-A very large and
respectable meeting of citizens was held
in the hall of the Board of Trade, last
evening. to consider the best means of
aiding the officers of the law in bringing
murderers to speedy trial conviction and
punishment. Charles Reed, State Attor
ney, showed that officers of the law were
embarrassed in the performance of their
duties. and that criminals sometimes were
enabled to escape punishment through
the disinclination of business men and
and the better class of citizens generally
to do jury duty, aud urged upon this
class of citizens the importance of doing
their duty in this respect. He also con
demned the law which allows the read
ing OF case in the newspapers to be an
objection to man serving on the jury IN
criminal cases, and the practice of the
Supreme Court judges in granting writs
OF supcrcedeas in criminal cases during
vacation and allowing the hearing to be
postponed for months until the regular
term is held. Resolutions were adopted
for the appointment of committee of
twenty five to act in conjunction with
the officers of the law in causing the de.
lection and the arrest of murderers and
bringing of them te speedy trial and
prompt punishment. The meeting was
very orderly throughout and deep feel
