A grand Republican mass meeting
was held at Clinton, Miss, on Satur-
day the 4th inst, during the progress
of which a difficulty began over a
bottle of whisky, which resulted in
the killing of a number of negroes
and some whites. How unfortunate
it is for the Republican press, and
public speakers that it was not a
Democratic meeting. They are de-
priyed of their usual shouts of "ku
Klux outrage, rebels, premeditated
murder of innocent black people, ="
and all such "bloody shirt" balder-
dash. 1t develops the fact that the
Radicals of the South have love for
the black co-cxtensivc with their vo-
ting propensity, and no more, and in
personal or social matters, if they DO
not keep . back seat, they murder
them with IMMUNITY. Perhaps the
black people of the country will some
day learn who have, and who have
not, their material interests at heart.

General EaochS, Of Lawrence coun
ty, in 4 recent speech at 1ronton,
grossly slandcrcd the people Of West
Virginia, and particularly the Demo
Gratis of that State, when he said
that their school system had gone
into decay, and "the school-houses
which dotted the hillsides of West
Virginia when the Republicans had
charge of the State were now aban-
doned to the bats" General Enochs
was, We believe, Republican aspir-
ant for the Legislature in Lawrence
county this year. He is 4 strong
partisan, but hitherto has been re-
garded as an honest, truth-speaking
man. Yet when he made such an
assertion as the above he showed
himself to be either willfully ignor-
ant or else a willful falsifier, and in
either case he forfeited his claims to
the support Of all honest voters. The
educational system Of West Virginia
was never before in as prosperous
conditionasit isatt this time, land there
is no State in the Union-not even
excepting the New England States
where there is more interest felt in
the cause Of education, or where as
great progress has been made during
the past ten years as in it. In the
year 1865, under Republican State
Government, they expcndedSl6,
in the erection of public school
houses; in the year 1S74thcy expend.
