MIR. McENERY's POLICY
FUSION LEGISLATURE TO Be REcoNveNeD
ARMED RESISTANCE TO STATE GOVERN
---- MENT
Another Move to Get Office
McEnery's Letter to General Emory

Now that the holidays are upon us, the
long and dismal period Of financial dist ress
is coming to close, and merchants and me-
chanics are alike rejoicing in the approach
of better times with the new year, the
wicked spirit of anarchy and disorder
threatens again to lift it's head in our midst.
Not satisfied with the mischief they have
done our city in the past year, not satisfied
with the expense they have inflicted upon
the people, and careless of the vain and un-
necessary blood caused to be shed in their
former disorderly enterprises, the handful
of Fusion leaders who created the disorders
of the past and went un whipped of justice,
are canvassing the subject of reinaugurat
ing new reign Of outlawry and crime.
In proof of this, we are informed that on
Christmas day Colonel John McEnery ad-
dressed a communication to General
Emory, in which he declares it to be his
intention to reconvene the Fusion Legisla-
ture of last year, and asks the General if
the assembling of the body will be inter
fered with by him. He asks. in case Kel-
logg should interfere with the assembling
of the body and order it to be dispersed,
will the General assist therein. And he
asks the General if he will sustain kellogg
in case the body should resist him with
force of arms.
To these three interrogatories it may be
surmised what answer the bluff old soldier
gave the inquirer. 1t was in substance, we
hear, as follows That he had been hereto
fore instructed to prevent all violent demon
stration and preserve peace and order. and
that his orders had not been counter
manded.
This is but glimpse of what may come.
But We know the masses of our community
are heartily sick of such political escapades
as the Fusionists treated them to a year
ago, and will not submit to them any more
Those who propose to try their hands at
them again, Will do well to give the matter
careful thought before they go step too
far. The time has passed when riOtous
mob, infiamed by incendiary hsrangues,
and inspirited by vile whisky, can be per-
mitted to defy the law and its officers in
their crusades of riot, intimidation and pill
lage, The FIRST overt act, therefore, on the
part of the Fusionists. or their leaders, will
find the State executive prepared aud de-
termined, without invoking the military
aid Of the government; and the pathway to
the Penitentiary will be found to be short
and straight Let Mr.. McEnery's friends
take warning. and see to it that he involves
them in no further mischief.

AssassinntiOa of a Sheriff.


We are informed that on Saturday even
ing last an attempt was made on the life of
John T. Yates, sheriff OF Red River parish.
The court had been for some days in ses-
sion at Coushatta, and in order to clear the
docket the Judge had remained on the
bench up to about nine O'Clock on Saturday
evening. Upon adiouruing the sheriff
stepped to the door, in conversation with
lawyer, when gun was discharged at him,
load of twelve buckshot entering his right
breast. At last accounts the sheriff was
lying in precarious condition, though the
wounds are considered not necessarily fa-
tai. A man named Newt. Giliem was ar
rested few moments after the shot was
fired, with gun in his hand, and was
identified at once by the sheriff as his in
tended murderer, his face having been dis
tinctly seen in the light made by the dis
charge of the piece. The assassin is a well
known Democrat, and the sheriff claims to
know of no personal grounds for tho as

To the Union and American
EDGEFIELD, Aug. 27.-Permit me
through your deservedly popular and ex-
tensively circulated paper, to cali the atten-
ton of the citizens of Edgefeld and Nash
vile to a subject which in my judgment
is of the first Importance to them. i mean
the establishing in or near Edgeield of a
first-class female school. Nashville has Sc
cured the University, now let us go to work
and build up in Edgefield school of the
same grade for our daughters, that they
may be fit companions and wives for our
cultivated young hen. No place could be
more eligible than Edgefeld for an institu
ton of this kind, remarkable for its health,
its fine water, its retirscy and quiet, en-
powered in shade and ornamented with
flowers, with population cultivated and
fond of literature, moral and religious.
accessible from every point of the compass
by rail and river, 1t has every requisite that
could be suggested. And we now have an
opportunity, such as may never occur again.
We can now secure at a very low price,
considering the value of the property, and
the cost of the buildings, the residence of
the late DR.. John Shelby, with 175 acres of
ground attached, with its long, wide and
numerous rooms and halls, it seems to have
been built for the purpose, whilst il would
give Joy and health to the young ladies to
sport under its lordly oaks, or walk around
its ornamented gardens. 1t should be Sc
cured at once, or may it pass into the hands
of others and be too late. PRoGREss.
