Which Southern Democrats Call Words Of
Counsel.
The following extracts from South
ern papers tell their own story. Their
plain meaning is death to Republicans
and victory at the ballot-box by the
aid Of bullets and assassination:

THE SPIRIT OF THE LATE MISSISSIPPI
CAMPAIGN.
Aberdeen Examiner. July 2s, 1876.
God gave the victory to the people
who were contending for liberation
from the basest thraldom ever endured
by civilized race, and who would
have been justified in swinging up their
oppressors as food for the JuzzdrdS 10
the bOughS Of our forest trees.

If the negroes of Pike County desire
to continue the amicable relations now
existing between them and the whites,
to have their rights respected and to
prosper. let them prove it by organ
izing Democratic clubs and 10y voting
for Tilden and Hendricks.
A SUGGESTIVE MARGIN - INTIMID
ALTON MADE EASY.
On the Sth of July last the United
States Grand Jury, sitting at Oxford,
Miss made its report, stating, among
other things, that 1.-The fraud, intimid-
alton, and violence perpetrated at the
last election is without parallel in the
annals of history" but also pointing
cut some of the defects in the Nation
al Election law, and their failure to
find indictments in consequence. Re
viewing this report, the Meridian
Miss Mercury is led to say:
lC lCssoh VIC lOl Jul
from this report and action of this
packed jury is, that there is quite a
margin for intimidation bet1Oeen uS
and the boundaries Of the lar, and me
can gO1eTn OurSeLoeS GccOrdingty."

David Jenkins, Alfred Handy, and
some Others might Just as well make
up their minds to ground arms now as
later in the campaign. They need not
try to carry this county against honest
rule. Ii can't be done. They need
not try to excite the passions of the
ignorant masses against the more 10
telligent, 1t shan't be done. We tell
them so right now. Let them weigh
our words of counsel and be profited
thereby.
lCanton is in Madison county, Miss,
which gave Grant z, 400 majority in
1872, and is Republican 10y that major
ity to day.
