The "War Of Races. |"

4
From the Nashville Union and Americana
In the height of the Someryille
emeute, the negroes freely threat
ened to burn the town. The Tele-
graph to-day mentions similar
threats INDUCED by the negres Of
Austin, Miss. In neither case is
the town theirs, that they threat
en- to burn. The threats are all on
one side, and the resulting dam
age of all riotous proceedings
would be OIL the other.
i Ii should be known of all men
that in Southern communities
every interest OF the whites coun
sells them to preserve the peace.
and frown down incendiaries OF
either color. The whites have
every thing to lose by turbulence
and disorder, while the negroes
have nothing to lose. Whitemen
have property liable to the ineen
diary torch. They have trade and
commerce to be diverted from
them by lawlessness. They have
crops to be neglected and lost
through an unsettled condition of
the laboring class. For all these
reasons the active majority of
Of Southern whites are invariably
ON the side of law and order.
But there is another motive,
superior to mere property inter
.ests, and more sacred, which
causes white men to deprecate,
and if possible TO avert, anything
like q war of races. 1t is their
concern for the daugerisof their
families-wivts aud daughters
on the scattered farms or ia the
snDsuspeeted villages. The negro
has no appreciation OF the family.
No cencern for wife or little ones
Restraints his passions or checks
his uplifted hand. He knows
that the savage instinct which
would avenge itself on the help
less, is all his own-that the
white man has no share in it, and
that negro women and children
are in no danger. This unconcerl
for his family ties makes him al
easy pupil of the white incendiary
who have everything to gain ant
nothing to lose, by melting a wal
of races,
We hope our Northern brethren
will understand how every mate
rial and moral motive compel
Southern whites continually, a
individuals and as communities
20 avert by all possible mean
anything like war of races. o.
theother hand, nothing restrain
the negro except instructive low
of life. He has no property a
stake-no family whose feelings 0
safety he regards. Under thes
circumstances a Radical Congress
has placed the firebraud of civi
rights in the hand ofevery dema
gogne of either color that bids fo
negro votes, from Maynard dow
to- the negro orator of Somervill
who proposed to- ride in blood a
to his bridlebits.
