simultaneously with the proceedings
Of the Sulphur Springs convention we
publish the following sketch Of its
nominee, Colonel ID. u, Culberson,
which We iino In the Jefferson Demo
crat Of the 9th Instant;
There II no better man IN the state
than Culberson. lie IL learned In tho
law, skilled In debate, and stands
above reprouch for honesty and integ-
rity. lio has served ably in both
houses of the legislature, aud has ever
worked faithfully for the democracy.
He comes from the people, and has
their interest NJ heart, and will leave
nothing undone TO advance the welfare
of his people. lilo has been fearless
advocate Of truth. Standing securely
on his own conscious rectitude he will
bear nloit the constitution of our coun-
try aud battle for the rights Of the
people.
The nomination of Colonel Culber-
son Is u triumph of the old Rusk rail-
road doctrine, which was plank In
his platform. The greatest objection
made TO him In the canvass was his
railroad doctrine, which is beyond
doubt the only policy which can ever
make Texas equal to her sister states
In railroad progress. The n0mina-
ton In this district Is equal to an cleo
ton, and the people Of the district may
well he proud of their representative,
and the people of Jefferson have just
cause for congratulation, for they have
not only secured the congressman, but
they have secured representative
whose ability, learning aud eloquence
will reflect honor on any country.
With the representatives we will have
in the next congress we need have no
fears but that our state will be heard
in the national legislature.
We hail the nomination o { such men
as Culberson as the dawn of brighter
era for the people of the state. The
people are beginning to arouse them
selves to the Importance of taking af-
fairs in their own hands. They have
stood by and witnessed long enough
the impostons that have been prac-
tlced upon them and now that the
great popular heart is beginning 10 de-
clare ITSELF demagoguery and trlckery
will receive the condemnation 1t 50
justly merits.
Colonel Culberson is sure of the cleo
ton If the people will turn out and
vote; but if they stay at home, and
the radicals put candidate in the
field, he may be defeated. But whether
there is any opposition or not, every
one who has the right to vote should
go to the polls on the day of election
and vote, If for nothing else than to
show their appreciation for the great
man whom they have chosen as their
standard-bearer. If type could be
made to speak, our readers would hear

The killing of the six white men did
not end the tale of outrage in Red river
parish. AT the same that the carpet
baggers, who were afterwards killed,
were captured, eleven negroes were
taken into custody, charged with being
leaders In the hostile demonstrations
against the whites. A committee OF
twenty-one responsible citizens was
organized, which proceeded to exam
inc into the origin of the troubles.
After a patient hearing of all the testi-
mony they discharged nine of the ne
groes from custody, and remanded the
other two, named Paul Williams and
Louis johnson, to the county Jail to
await their trial before the district
court. As the prisoners We're being TIA
ken from the courthouse, where the
investigation had been held, to the
Jail under guard they were met by a
band of armed men, who seized the
49, F%.SOhNinf eooh thCiii w thc WOOuo
and hung them. Paul Williams con-
fessed that he was one of the ambushed
gang that fired upon and wounded Mr..
j. b. Dickson.
The proclamation Of Kellogg, in ref
erence to the murder of the parish
officials, concludes as follows: ''Their
bodies were buried where they fell,
without any inquest or any formality
whatever" In reply to this the
Shreveport Times publishes the pro-
ceedings and finding of an inquisition
taken on the 3lst of August before JUS
tice Marion, acting coroner of Caddo
parish. This is fair sample of the
reckless disregard for truth manifested
by the dc fdcto gubernatorial thief.

Our dispatches, few days ago, gave
the information that Attorney General
Williams had gone to Long Branch to
consult the president in relation to the
troubles that were reported in many
portions of the south. The result of
that conference appears from the fol-
lowing paper:
LONG BRANCH, September
General w. W. BellSnap, Secretary of War:
Tie recent atrocities in the south,
particularly in Louisiana, Alabama
and South Carolina, show d disregard
for law, civil rights and protection of
person that ought not to be tolerated in
any civilized government. 1t looks as
II, unless speedily checked, matters
must become worse until life and
property there will receive no protec-
ton from the local authorities, until
such authority becomes powerless.
Under such circumstances, it Is the
duty of the government to give all the
aid for the protection of life and civil
rights legally authorized to this end. |
wish you would consult with the at
toney general, who is well informed as
to the Outrages already committed and
the localities where the greatest danger
lies, and so order troops rs to be avail
able in cases of necessity. All proceed
ings for the protection of the south
will be under the law department of
the government and will be directed
by the attorney general in accordance
with the provisions of the enforce
nent acts No instructions need there
fore be given the troops ordered TO the
southern states, except as they may be
transmitted from time to time on adj
vice from the attorney general or as
circumstances may determine hereaf-
ter. Yours truly, us. GRANT,

have been entirely ruined. The prairie

DEATH OF MRS SOULN

Mrs. Soule, wife Of NJ. B. Soule, Esq.,,
died on Tuesday night last and was
buried on Thursday, the funeral ser
mon being preached by Rev. J. w.
Lewis at the Union Congregational
Church. Mrs. Soule had been in deli.
cate health for several years, and last
winter she made visit to her former
home in Maine, thinking a change of
scene might benefit her health. But
the winter was unfavorable, and she
declined constantly in health. In the
spring she returned to Worthington
and for time seemed to revive some.
what under the stimulus of the climate.
As the warm weather advanced, how
ever, she was unable to bear the ex-
haustion, and died, as stated above, on
last Tuesday. Mrs. s, was held in
universal esteem, which was expressed
by the large concourse of citizens at
tending the funeral services.
The following resolution was adopted
at a special meeting of Fraternity
Lodge, No. 101, A. F. and A. NJ, June
18th, 1874:
Resolred, That we extend to our
brother NJ. B. Soule our warmest SYM
pathies in this his hour of great afllic-
ton.
