Wars of the Beasts of Prey


The Radical party is most naturally much
troubled by the di>cord that takes place in
IL own ranks in the wrangliny over the

rage. Nothin" could be more natural. The
~,ldd motives Of the carpct-ba-yrr> and
>,"llawa@> who marshal the negroes in their
war for pilIa-e and booty inevitably ill their
minds with violent and kwlcSs dispositions
Like beasts of prey, when they have by Il
combined attack run down their prey, they
immediately fall to fighting over it with ii fe
rority more keen than that of their attack
upon the game. In every southern State thi,
bitter family war has burst out with violence
lrorortioned 10 the strength of the parties
and the amount of booty to be shared
amongst them.
This family strife is now going on in Ar.
. kansas. and the growls of the colnbatants
have reached Washington. There is by bar,
possibility Il right side to it; but, more
probably, there is nothing but wrong
a nongst the men who have acquired spoil,
Ivy crime. 1t is, however, Il matter of little
consequence us to which side is right
amongst men who have been combined
against the best interests and dearest rights
OF the responsible and intelligent people of
Hi, country.
The only consolation The good people of
the nation can extract from these DISGRACE
lul and fcrociouS wars of the Radicals is
that justice may gain strength by their dis
scnsionS. In them the country may behold
more vivid display of the disorder and
lawcsSnc>s visited upon the South by re-
construction, and finally we may have some
inquiry, and possibly some action, amongst
those now holding the political power of
the mutton, a. to how the great evil may be
remcdicd
The lawles> AMI sordid people who have
been using the negroes for their merccnary
objects have the support of the Federal En-
'cntlNe, and thus propped and supported,
there Is no restraint, moral OF legal, to check
their outiageS. They submit only to force.
The states are powerless, General GRANT
lmriu. ignored their authority. 1t is only
by the Federal bayonets that these corrupt
men can be made to obey laws and respect
rights. We can therefore have no hope for
peace until the Government of the United
Stntcs leaves local troubles to local State
authority, or orders its tayonets to the pro-
lection of the risht-to the protection of the
