murdered in cold blood by boo = of armed and

Whereas these some men subsequently proceeded
to rob the widow and .therless children of the

PsLsEHooD ovERTAKEN AT LAST,

The telegraph has brought the true ac-
count Of the so-called riot at Austin, Mis-
sissippi. The whole thing is summed up
thus: lone negro killed and no white
man even wounded" Either willful NAL
ice or miserable cowardice alone could
have prompted the originator Of the story
of this mythical riot to start the hue and
cry. He either desired to bring about the
state of things he represented as existing
or he was frightened out Of his senses.
We would deal charitably with the wretch
and place him in the latter category. One
poor negro killed IN an alteration with
which politics have nothing to do and
straightway the country is alarmed by
the report that the negroes are arming. by
hundreds, have sacked the village and
are about to murder all the whites.
He feel sorry for General Chalmers and
his five hundred gallant men who, 10
doubt, were honestly sincere in the
motives that prompted their action, but
who now find themselves dupes of wild
canard. With what chagrin must they
now look back to That council of war and
those elaborate preparations to quell a foe
that did not exist! It is scarcely to be
presumed that they will recall with any
feeling Of pride Or thrill of glory their
careful landing and securely planned
advance. The white people of Memphis,
Austin and the vicinity should learn from
the White League OF Louisiana. Here
the killing Of a colored man, whether by
personal enemy or political antagonist,
provokes no alarm and produces no SEN
sation. There's nothing like being used
to thing.
