the States which are about to have elcc-
tons The reports are usually accompan-
led BY request for troops,
3 Attorney General Williams left Washing
ton Tuesday night for Long Branch, where he
will have an interview with the President in
regard to the alleged Southern outrages, re-
ports Of which are daily received at the De-
partment Of Justice.
The eyes Of the lovers of peace and or
der are fixed upon this Attorney General
Williams, who is thus posting off to Long
Branch to induce the President to order
troops to the South, ostensibly to maintain
order, but in reality, for an Interior politi-
cal object He has done the like before
A letter from Washington to the New
York Sun, dated August 3lst, says
The Attorney General, it is announced this
evening, goes to Long Branch tomorrow to
consult with the President in regard to steps
TO be taken to protect the freedmen Of the
South in their rights at the coming elections.
There will be nice party at Long Branch on
this business Morey and Sypher of Louisi-
ana, Borse Of Mississippi, John ]. Patterson
Of South Carolina, and Spencer and Hayes Of
Alabama will keep Landaulet Williams in
conntenanee, and join their pleadings with
his for the protection Of the prosecuted black
man. Ii is possible that they may succeed,
and that the country may approve what is
done, but it is certainly about time sensible
people at the North were getting their eyes
opened to the true character Of these so-called
Southern outrages.
1t is plain TO every man Of sense here that
there is conspiracy among the desperate
Radicals to resurrect the old cry Of Ku- klux
for effect on the Northern mind and to secure
the presence Of troops in the South; not to
protect the negroes at the polls, but to keep
white men away. Their emissar;es are every
where in the South melting the negroes TO
acts OF violence, rape, arson, and murder, in
the hope and for the purpose Of exciting the
hot-blooded Southern whites to take the law
in their own hands, People at the North have
not the faintest idea Of the true character Of
the Southern negroes. They cannot Judge of
them by the few colored men to be found in
Northern cities or towns. II is an indisputa.
BILE fact that the dreadful crimes of rape,
arson, and murder are horribly frequent, even
in Maryland, Virginia, and the District Of
Columbia, where the blacks are not so nu-
merous or so ignorant as in the far Southern
States. Within the last month there have
been three or four rapes and attempts at rape
on white women by negroes within sight of
the dome ST the Capitol
