The Memphis Appeal, in speaking
Of the arrest of q numbcr of business
men, for alleged violation Of the En-
forcement Act, passed by Congress,
May 81, 1871, says:
1t is charged in the warrants that,
PRIOR to the election OF August &, the
persons named therein threatened ia
discharge from their employ certain
colorcd men should the latter vot,
against the Bartlett" ticket; that
they did vote against it, and were &C
cordinglv discharged. Under the con.
slructlon OF tie law which led to the
arrest, recently, Of numerous citizens
OF Shreveport, La, it appears that it is
. crime against the United States for
employers to dismiss men from their
employ whose politics they DO not ad,
mlrt. This Is II new departure. Since
the days OF Adam, the right of an EN-
ploy"r to discharge men employed by
matter what the pretext, SO
long as no contract is violated-has
been clearly understood as any other
right or privilege. If the latter be the
uilensc the State laws can reach it in
the civil courts. But now United
States officials propose to interfere in
the private business Of private citizens,
by attempting to prescribe the condi
lions uuder which individuals eau dis
charge men in their employ.
Ine blacks who figure in these war
rants did not suggest this contemplate
prosecution. They were, of course,
urged to action by white men anxious
to wreak petty vengeance on persons
who aided in the overthrow of Radi
calism in Shelby county. Whether
certain officials may have fnrthered the
matter in the hope of proiiting by the
costs likely to accrue, will he developed
10 time. These arrests will annoy the
persons prosecuted they will be put
trouble to give bonds, and to ex-
pense in employing counsel. There
Will be no other result, except the pay
Of costs by those who, to get rid
Dt annoyance, will consent to be bled
n that way. So far as Tennessee is
concerned, this is the last turn of the
rank; and being the last, it is proper
bat 1t should be the most contempt.

he people for not loving the beautiful
