White LeaguerS.

The Providence Journal, on the situa.
ton, says:
The White League decided that they
would not permit that the men imDlica-
ted in the late violent attempt to over
turn the government in Louisiana should
be proceeded against. They demanded
the Immunity of these men as one of the
conditions precedent to their submission
to fair and peaceable election. Gov
ernor Kellogg thought that he had done
quite enough when he had consented
that One-half of the election officers
should be taken from those who had
just laid down, at the command of the
federal government, the arms that they
had taken up against his authority and
he declined the modest demand, where
upon the party of riot and ruin consent
ed to the compromise which recent ac-
counts say they have repudiated. I'm
mediately, however, and before the re-
pudIatiOn, they gave notice that although
they would permit the negroes to vote,
they would on no account permit any of
their friends to be arrested for partici-
patton in the riots; that if any attempt
should be made to call them to account
for the highest crime against society,
the offender would he protected by arms
and at all hazards.
It is now announced that the federal
government proposes to inquire into
these Ofenses, and where it has jurisdic-
ton, although cOncurren Mt with the State,
to assert it's authority and to vindicate
the violated laws. This is right. What
ever lenity might have been iudicious
toward men who have repented of their
crimes, it is not safe toward men who
are still defiant, and who aVow their
purpose to repeat them. We shall now
have an opportunity to see if these men
will permit" the federal government
to serve process upon rioters if they
will consent" that the President of the
United States shall exercise the author
ity which they deny to the Governor of
Louisiana. The case presents one of
those cases of oppression, to relieve
which the Governor of Tennessee pro-
poses a convention of the Governors of
the Southern States, to take measures to
prevent the federal government from
exercising its jurisdiction where it is
concurrent with that of the State, for
the punishment of offenses which the
State does not recognize, such as killing
mail agents, shooting marshals and muir
dering negroes.

last point of endurance. 1t not only
strips them of their, money, but barbar-
ICES public sentiment, by making the

therefore, which tends to break up this

which have nearly put an end to duelling
