THE BRASHEAR EMEUTE.
Race and Radicalism at the Bot.
tom of it.
A Patched.Up Peace.

Mr.. Eaaor-Riots, like epidemics are all.
pervading and contagious. Before an cleo.
ton We naturally look for riot, and big
one, at least in the newspapers. But to fore.
stall the bloody-shirt horrors a year before an
election is to take place, and risk the lives
and property of a whole village, can only pro-
coed from the diabolical brain of an intensely
selfish politician, who is willing to ruin when
he can no longer rule.
Looking on as quietly as an old virtuoso
regretting the ruins Of bridge of Venice, we
saw in this otherwise quiet but thrifty town,
a scene, on Sunday last, that would have
have made the angels weep and the saints
veil their eyes. Think of some four hundred
armed Infatuated Africans defying the law,
insulting every one not linked with them in
their hellish designs, telling the Mayor and
other city officials now was their time, they had
stood this long enough, they would have their
rights, would settle old scores, and would not
lay down their arms for Jesus Christ.
You may ask where were the white people
during this time. Some, like Micawber, wait
ing to see what would turn up; some ran
home to quiet the females, and few saw
enough to know that the whites were neither
unit nor organized, and the black element
were ready, organized and armed, to cut
through most anything, needing only bold
white leader to make the mob Drunk with
temporary success) go which ever way he
might choose.
We admit we expected the Radical Con-
gresham of this District to appear at this
critical moment (for there was plenty of time),
to assist the town authorities to quell the
mob. But no, all we know was he had sent
word to the Mayor he would go bond till "to
morrow" for the appearance in court of Jim
Harrison and his crew. And now was exhib-
ised an act of heroism far surprising many of
those which are so highly colored in history.
The negroes had possession of the town.
The Mayor and two or three of his friends
went here and there amidst the rioters, first
to one group and then to another asking
them to disperse, ordering them to go to their
homes, commanding them to obey the law,
and all this without as much of an arm as
penknfe. But to no avail-law was melted,
and power existed in all its fiery and muscu-
lar madness, needing only cool head to risk
and direct it.
Those who had concocted the scheme were
shut up in their hou, es and lacked nerve to
direct the storm which they had raised. We
can not say too much for Mr.. Macready, who
said an encouraging word to all the different
groups, and greatly contributed to the peace
which now reigns in outward appearance, but
which only conceas fire which is destined
to break out in redoubled fury as soon as the
lull is over, and the lynx-eyed watchers are
asleep and their arms rusty or unlOaded.

tells us that he is greatly annoyed by some
noisy, obstreperous negroes living in house

and ofeentimes obscene talking. Last week
three deaths occurred at the place, and
for three nights the air resounded

Of these boisterous Senegambians, prolonged
until daylight, and depriving every one with

states that he has lost the renting of one of his
houses near by on account of this nuisance.

Tom Ewing is hard at work in Ohio. The

Tom Ewing is hard at work IN Ohio. The
following is from an exchange:
The speech of Gen. Ewing at Ironton has
received handsome notices from the press of
Ohio, and also Of Washington, Philadelphia,
and other Eastern cities.
On Saturday he delivered another powerful
speech on the financial question, at Findlay.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says of it.
We print this morning the speech deliv-
cred by Gen. Thomas Ewing at Findlay,
Ohio, last Saturday. 1t is short and compre-
hensive. 1t is one of the clearest presenta-
tions that we have yet seen of the financial
issues involved in the Ohio canvass. In his
replies to the speeches of Morton and the
Radical leaders, Gen. Ewing shows himaeif
master of the discussion. His facts are I'M
answerable, and his speech from first to last
convincing. 1t deserves to be well read and
circulated. Ohio Eagle.

"That was awful. Jennie" and
the two girls giggled together for
Ave minutes. Nell broke the spell
by demanding " what next?"
why, you see I was talking
with that young sprig of clergy
man, the Rev. Tom Parsons. We
had nearly talked each other to
death, when, as luck would have
it, he made some remarks about
mosquitoes. I was on my native
heath at once, and began to tell
him of my experience at Rockaway.

terest on the debentures had been 944, 382
las. Cd. showing a loss of f19,622 19s. Sd,
a balance which the directors recommend
should be written off the reserved fund.
This loss had not arisen from their ordinary
commercial business which had been as
good and as profitable as usual, but was
due entirely to their sugar estates in the
West Indies. The operations of the
previous year in that respect were
unsuccessful, and that want of success had
accompanied their operations during the
year the causes of this were a very small
production, a comparatively high cost Of
production, and the low prices which the
yield had realized. "Of course, everyone
acquainted with West India property must
be prepared for fluctuations, and when bad
markets at home combine with bad season
and l%essened production in the colonies,
the result cannot but be unsatisfactory.
But one or two good seasons will set all
right again"
