The weekly clarion., 1876-08-23

The Democratic House of Representa-
tives passed a resolution in general terms,
and having no partisan application, nor
application to any particular section, de-
claring against fraud, intimidation, vio-
lence, and any other illegal methods in
carrying elections, which was all right
and proper. The pleapest thing on re-
cord, is the attempt of the President of
the United States to pervert this decla-
ration to partisan use by the issuance
of the proclamation, which will be found
elsewhere. 1t is designed to serve the
double purpose of firing the Northern
heart and intimidating the Southern vo-
tiers who are Disguised with Radical mis-
rule, and to deter them from voting ac-
cording to their convictions in Eoyem-
ber. The disgust and Indignation with
which it has been received in the North,
and the Indifference in the South, show
that the originator of the contemplate
manmuver hss utterly failed of his pur-
pose. The General Of tis Army is in
structed to hold "the available toreei at
his command, mot employed in subdu-
g ing the IGdiQns, in readiness to be
g used upon the call or feqqisition of the
81 proper legal authorities for protecting
. all citizens, without distinction Of race,
i" color, or political opinion, in the exer-
g else of the right to vote" SO far as
is concerned, her "propef le-
gal authorities" are fully resolved and
amply able to enforce the laws in this
particular, AID there will be no requisi-
ton from this State. 1n the matter of
voting, the people of both races, having
tested the difference between the dis
honesty, corruption proiiigaey. and
troubles of carpet-bag misrule, and the

CarPef-BaEGery as illustrated by
Jhe Hamburg Affair.

We have said, and have seen no cause
to change the opinion, that the RESPONSE
bility of the Hamburg ahair attached TO
the colored marplots and their mean
white instigators, and not to the white
citizens who struck their blows in self
defense. The evidence leaves no doubt
upon this point. The so-called military
company which uzurped the right TO the
public highway, 10 the exclusion of all
others, was 10 legal company, but an
armed conspiracy to overawe, browbeat
and murder the whites. At the prelimi
nary trial, John Lee (colorcd) swore that
he had been asked to join the company.
He asked for what purpose the company
was being formed, and Doc Adams said:
eve are forming the company to kill
the white people; that GoretnOr Cham
berlain had promised 10 furnish the arms
and ammunition" Adams stated, also,
that Goreraor Chamberlain had said that
at acas necessary to do this to carry the ne.t
election, and to keep the State ,mder lie
control Of the Republican party.
This accords exactly with the policy of
Ames and his clan during their wicked
rule in this0State Chamberlain, the
carpet bag Governor Of South Carolina,
is proved to having provided Doc Adams
and his murderous band arms and am
munition ''to kill the white people" and,
with having said, "tItat It aCas necessary to
do this to carry the merit election and to
keep the State under the control of the Re
publican party" Ames deliberately plot
ted war between the races in Mississippi,
and when people We're quietly pursuing
their avocations in peace, not dreaming
of trouble, he was negotiating for Spring
field rifles, and other warlike accoutre-
ments for the accomplishment of his
murderous designs. The proof of this
charge is furnished by the correspond
ence which was found in the Executive
Office after his abdication, and was not
accessible to the impeachment Commit
tee when they were prosecuting their
investigations. They had other evi-
denee, however, of his scheme to produce
a collision between the races, and so
charged in the articles which were pre-
sented against him. 1t may be set down
as an essential part of the carpet bag
policy in the Southern States, to organize
strife between the races. The rule of
the adventurers has become Il thing of |
the past in nearly all the reconstructed
States, but the mind will never be able
to conceive the height, the breadth and
The depth Of its immeasurable atrocity.

HOW LT.-GOV. DAVIS REeMG-
NATION WAS PROCURED.
Serious AccusalfOns AgafnsG Hem
ry Musgr0vr. Ihe Chairman of
the Republican Executive
Committee.

1t will be remembered that, after 1t
Gov. Davis resigned last winter, pending
the vote Of the Senate upon the articles
of impeachment, THE CLARION stated
that there were vague rumors in circula
ton that he received money considera-
ton for such action. These rumors
coupled the name of Mr. Henry Mus
grove, best organizer" and present
Chairman of the Republican State Exec
utive Committee, with the transaction,
and the rumor derived additional support
from the fact announced in the Times,
that Musgrove had been recommended
for the position, and from the Times
bitter denunciation of Gov. Ames
for refusing to make the appoint
ment. Having nothing but rumor
to rely upon, we did not press the
charge. The Southern Republican,
the paper of DR.. Fred. Barrett, whose
course has been recently endorsed by the
Administration, has put the charge in the
distinct and tangible form here annexed.
The accusation amounts to this, that
Muagrove paid Davis $500 to resign, in
order that he might get the place, and
Ames, knowing that the resignation
of Davis had been brought about by
bribery and corruption, refused to ap-
point a successor" The issue is
distinctly joined by DIR. Barrett,
and for the present we desist, confessing
that we have TO words equal to the occa-
sion
We are authorized by perfectly rcspon-
sible gentleman to make this statement:
Henry Mnsgrove paid, or caused to be
paid, to Lieutenant Governor A. 4. Davis,
the sum ofeight hundred dollars, in consid-
Grafton of his (Davis) rendering, in writing
his resignation, and using his influence to
have him (Musgrove) appointed as his snc-
cessor; that Davis wrote his resignation,
and received the money.
It is part of the history of the last Leg
islature, that Henry Musgrove aoas candi-
date for the appointment to nil the Udcancy oc-
cdsioned by The resignation Of Lieut. Coz. De-
OtS, and the candidate for Lieutenant Governor
on The Liberal ticket aoih james L. Alcorn
and supported by the Democracy. THE
PROOF WILL BE FORTHCOMING
GOV. Ames has been censured by Mus
grove and his kind, for refusing to appoint
Lieutenant-G Governor, and mo one of them
has ever had the decency to ascribe to Ames
the justice OF having refused to appoint
successor to Davis, because HE KNEW
THAT DAVIS RESIGN ALTON HAD
BEEN BROUGHT ABOUT BY BRI-
Berry AND CORRUPTION. Let the
rest follow.

MisrcPresented.

What you did in the canvass last year,
repeat during this canvass.-JAcKsoN
CLARION.
The advice from the leading Demo
cratic paper in the State comes in good
time. So the same programme is to be
carried out in Mississippi this year as that
which disgraced the State last fall
Okolona News.
The News misquotes us and then COM
ments upon its construction of what we
said. 1t was:
What you did in the canvass of last
year, repeat during this canvass. See
that every man registers.
We do not know that there is any
thing wrong in seeing ''that every man
registers" but if the News prefers the
item as it quotes it, we have no objection.
There is nothing connected with the
canvass of 1873 of which the Conserva-
tiye=QenpocraGy Qf Mississippi need be
ashamed. They met the Radical CO.
horts on their own ground and routed
them, horse, foot and dragons. They
drove them from power throughout the
entire State, and after having gained
possession haEe Kept every promise made
in the canvass. What they did in the
last canyass we would be gratitied to see
them do an this. If that be treason make
the most of it.
But the News continues
We have one consolation, however,
and that is, if we are not permitted to
haye fair, free and peaceable election,
the electoral vote of the State will count
for nothing. Winchester rife ballots
will not count III this Centennial wear,
and if the Democratic party is so weak
and desperate as 10 force this alternative,
they must abide the consequence Of their
folly.
i that is your only consolation you
are poor iaaeed The rule for counting
the electoral vote provides dat either
House of Congress can object to the
coqpting of the vote Of any State and
upon such objection the vote of the State
shall not be counted, and finally that if
there be no election by the Electoral
College then the House Of Representatives
shall elect.
If the Radical Senate choose 10 object
to the counting of the vote of a Demo
cratic State, the Democratic House can,
and will, make honors easy by objeeting
to the vote Of q Radical State. And if
by these objections, no choice will be r4ade
by tie electoral votes of the States, the
Democratic House viii exercise its CON
'titutioaal prerogltlve and eieei Tillen f!
md Hendricks. We have no fears,
however, that the vote of Mississippi
v;IIn, '"tnd and counted, too, for
he Democratic nominees.

tfOn Of the MuS=reve-Lnke
Organ tiSm.

The removal of Capt. Lake, editor of
the Times, and Secretary of the Mus
grove State Executive and Central Com
mittees of the Republica1 party, from
the Office of United States Marshal, is a
signal manifestation of Gen Grants in
dignation at the present organization of
the Radical party in Mississippi, and of
his disapproval Of the cold shoulder
which Musgrove, Lake ami Company, in
their disappointment over the defeat OF
Judge Chandler, have given to Captain
Shaug hnes>ey, as the Republican nomi-
nee for Congress in this District. tbs
nothing less than a pointed and emphat-
ic reputation of the existing Radical
organization in Mississippi, 1t does not
suit the Boss and he doe, not intend TO
give it any countenance or support
whatever. The presumption is reasona-
bic that nothing but Capt. Lakes con-
nection with the committee caused his
decapitation. For twelve months he
has waved the bloody shirt IS vigorously
as any man We know of, and has been
thick and thin supporter of lhe Admin
istration which has not failed to keep
him in Office in spite of all opposition.
But his official relations witt the present
Radical Executive and Central Commit
tees, was the feather that broke the
camePs back. "Of with his head. So
much for Buckingham. neFred Bar
rett is endorsed by the Washington Ad
ministratioh, in his opposition to Mus
grove & Co., and is master d the situa-
ton in the Republican party, so far as
that fact will have bearing.
