Col. liIuuINsoN ON THE HAMBURG MAS
sAcRE.-Col. Thomas Wentworth Higgin-
son writes to the New York Times to note
tho remarkable circumstance that alter the
captured militiamen had been shot down at
Hamburg, the colored magistrate, before
whom the case had been brought, was com
PEELED 10 flee for his life, and his house was
sacked. His sole offence was that he had
done his Lest TO keep the peace, even advis-
ing the colored militiamen TO give up their
arms 10 him TO pacify the mob. or this
magistrate, well known as Prince Rivers,
Col. lligginson says:
Mr.. Rivers, the magistrate in question,
is well known 10 me and TO many others at
the North, having been for more than three
years the Color Sergeant of my regiment
during the civil war. lie is a man of un-
common mental and physical power, and a
natural leader of his people. He could
read and write even before the war, was
thoroughly upright, courageous and truth
full any statement of his was entitled TO
absolute confidence. Since the war he has
been local magistrate and a member OF
the Legislature. Hewas not a man to hide
Ii imself or TO leave his house unprotected,
except for all sufficient reasons
In regard TO the massacre itself Col. Hig-
ginson writes as follows, and his words
have a marked significance as coming from
one who pointedly says he is not "bgoted
Republican"
"Of all the Southern outrages since the
war, there is no one more sure to have an
important influence than this Hamburg
atrocity. There is no conflict Of testimony
about it. 1t occurred in broad day, was ut
terly unprovoked, was attended by pecul-
lar circumstances Of barbarism, and nclud-
ed the armed invasion Of neighboring
State. For one, have been trying hard to
CONVINCE myself that the Southern whites
had accepted the results of the war, and
that other questions might now come up
permost. So far from being a bigoted Re
publican, took part in the Fifth Avenue
Political Conference" and should certainly
have refused 10 support the Republican
nominee had he not commanded my conf
dence. AS it is, l am more than ever CRATE
full for the influences which secured the
nomination of Hayes and Wheeler. or
what use are all our efforts TO lay aside the
issues of the war, if they are still 10 be
kept alive by our white tellow-citizens of
the South? The spirit that sends armed
men across the South Carolina border to-
day may just as easily send them across
the Pennsylvania border next year, if it
secures the aid of Democratic national
ad ministration. For one, l do not propose
to acquiesce in this"
