side. Some OF our newspapers, In their ac-
counts OF the affair, evidently drawn from the
papers, state that DR.. Bratton has been charged
with robbery and murder. The truth as TO

Il BLACK STRIKE.
The Hands on the Port Royal Railroad
Ceaae Work.
From the Augusta Chronicle, June 1871

From tho Augusta Chronicle, June ISL
Yesterday the hands employed on the Port
ROYAL Railroad, between this city and the
Savannah river. struck for higher wages, and
marched iuto Augusta. From what we can
learn of the affair, from gentlemen connected
with the railroad company and others, the
causes and the particulars of the affair were as
follows: About TWO hundred colored laoorers
have been employed by The company
on the line of the road between this
city and the Savannah river, receiving
as wages one dollar and twenty-five cents
per day. The overseer or superintendent OF
the line was A. g. HerndoD, Of this city, who
received sixty dollars per month. Last Sa-
tur6ay night Mr.. Herndon demanded that his
wages be Increased to one hundred dollars,
with which demand the company refused to
and another man was appointed In his stead.
Yesterday morning he visited the line of the
road and all hands ceased wOrk-demandlng
one dollar and half per day. The men
formed in line and marched into town, about
two hundred strong. Their first halt was
on Broad street, near the lower market,
where they stopped TO get liquor. The crowd
was 30 large that the street was blocked for
some distance, and the chief oil police ordered
the strikers to move on. The column
marched to Bay street, at the foot of Mcintosh,
where they went Into quarters on The 0ank oil
the Savannah We learn that the leader ten
dered the services Of the force TO the canal
enlargement contractors, who very wisely and
prudenty declined the offer. At last ac-
counts the strikers were still on the river
bank, where they will probably remain until
their stomachs teach them sense. So far they
are only iDjuring themselves. The laborers on
the other side OF the river, who are at work
upon the Important portion OF the line, have
not struck. Operations on this side Will be
retarded very little. The grading Is nearly all
finished, and track-aylng will be commenced
this morning. The bridge across the Savan-
nah will be finished by the winter.
Since writing the above we have seen an
advertisement, written by Captains Herndon
and Bromley, in which they slate that they
have secured employment for themselves and
handsome hundred and twenty-six In num-
ber-on the Augusta Canal Enlargement.
The laborers give as their reason for striking,
not because an increase of wages was de-
manded or refused, but because Captain
Herndon was removed and captain put In
his place who required Of them larger days
work than they had been In the habit OF per
forming,
