MEMPHIS, August l2.-Parties who ar-

Austin at p. m. yesterday. Captain
Lee saws n story was circulated that after
having received a repulse, the negroes
began to murder children and women on

have been sent out from this city to de-

negroes took that town, and proceeded
to break open the stores and saloons and
to pillage the place. 1t Was feared that

FACTS.

That which simpering idiot says usu.
ally fails to excite any feeling Of anger in
those more happily situated, but when
the witless one becomes mischievous and
dangerous, then it is time it should be
restrained. The babblings Of the San
Francisco Alta have usually been so
pointless and silly that they would cause
no further remark to be made than TO
wonder that a metropolitan journal
should publish such wretched inanities.
In its issue of the 9th inst. it has as
sumed new phase. that of wicked mis-
chievousness. For instance, it refers to
the deplorable condition Of the South,
and after pretending to shed few croco-
ollie tears over the misery Of the people
there, it says, with q demoniac com.
placency. at the sight Of human suffer
ing. that is really fearful:
1t is to be regretted that this state OF
affairs exists; but the whites are in
great measure responsible, because they
could have retained the confidence of
their former slaves had they accepted
the situation aid not tried to trample
the blacks under their feet. That the
question. as it now presents, will be set
tied without bloodshed, we have grave
doubts.
Now, this of course refers to post
bellum" tines to the era Of reconstruc-
ton; to the invasion of the South by the
army Of the carpet-baggers; to the time
of disfranchisement; to negro legislation
and carpet-baggers control, yet this mis-
cry was because "they (the whitesl tried
to trample the blacks under their feet,
when--excepting the renegade scoun-
drels and white carpet-baggers-they had
no more power than child waving a
red rag before a herd Of Spanish cattle.
They had to stand and take it. First
they were DISTINGUISHED, then the work
of plumber commenced, and yet they
tried to trample the blacks beneath their
feet" All they tried to do was to re-
store their ruined homes, to recuperate
their exhausted means, and let political
matters take care Of themselves. No,
that would not do; they were doomed to
be robbed, to destruction, and first they
had to be gagged, that done, the work Of
plumber could safely 60 on. Now, look
what followed putting ignorance and
vice in high places, where those
bad elements controlled everything
until ruin was so imminent,
that it could no longer be dis
guised. Now affairs have taken an
other turn, and not q telegram comes
but tells that the negroes are practicing
the doctrines their deceivers have taught
them, and are asserting their rights as a
man and brother by armed insurrection
and contemptuous disregard for every
thing, but their own sweet wills. These
e1ceses are the natural fruits Of the les.
sons taught them by the carpet.baggers,
and for which all who supported and de.
Tended the latter are equally responsible

soon for the regulation OF all questions
relating to the passenger department.
South American letters say that Chill

arbitrators will be President Grant for
