RETITAL INCIDENT.

MR.. MOODY IN GEoRG1A-How WHITES AND
BLACKS WERE SEPARATED.
A letter from Augusta, Ca, to the Atlanta Con.
sttution, written by Democrat, contains the fol-
lowing "Mr. Moody with the proper informa-
ton at his control would make very successful
stump-speakcr. He has plenty of political feeling,
am informed, and it is all black Republican
When be first began holding his open-air meetings
here, negroes mingled so inaiscriminately with
the audience that it became di.ageesble to the
whites. and dividing fence was put up. Mi.
Moody did not like this. and spoke Of it, when
one of our Pastors informed him that it was i'm
possible for the blacks and whites to mingle even
in religious audience. Mr.. Moody then said, Il

ings, yet NO, said the minister, Il am proud
of my rebellious feelings, and will be rebel un-

rupted by others and the matter was dropped

to me. | also learned the name Of the minister
but do not think it necessary to disclose it. Suffice
it TO say that he is the Pastor of one of the mos,
prominent churches in this city. If MIR. Moudy
has come South for the purpose of endeavoring
10 change the relation of the white and black ra,
ces, bis visit will be utterly unavailing, while it
will at the same time bring down upon him the
contempt and adherence of our eutire people.
The people Of Augusta have received him most
ho.pitably, believing him to be man of God, and
it is to be hoped that they will not find tina: they
have been entertaining man who mixes politics
with his religion, or who hates rebels even at
this late day. l was disposed to like Mr.. Moody,
and heard him with pleasure until this circum.
stance occurred. But / feel differently
toward him, and furthermore will venture to say
that as soon as it is generally known the loyal
gentleman will have very few to hear him among
the whites. wish there could be some mistake
about it, but it came to me directly that have
no reason to doubtit.

possible that they extend all proper courtesy to
other delegations, and treat with Difference the

The correspondence of the New York Times
says:
"The district delegates are fairly representative
men of the various portions Of the State, and
quite strong per cenage of their number are
young men. A. 10 their present sentiments on
the Presidential question, 1t is safe to say that
Blaine is the first choice of twothiids Of the del

this State did its work jodicousl,, and, without
doubt, gave fair expression to the prevalent

den ia question. 1t was n significant fact that ia
out'ide eansasing, nor in the proceedings in con-
sentlon, was there the slightest manifestation OF
any Cohkling or Morton strength"

The funeral of Anthony Carter, the col
ored man who was assassinated in Indian
apolis by the democrats on the day of the
recent charter election was an affecting
and impressive ceremony. Men and wo-
men, who had never heard his name be-
fore the bloody deed was done, thronged
the streets to participate in the last sad
rites. The act of the assassins was Of the
most iiendish character. Carter was an
innocent victim as were all the others.
He was standing quietly upon the side
walk, half mile from the polls. While
there some unknown democratic assassin
crept up behind him and stabbed him in
the back. The wounded man fled for his
life, but was pursued. knocked down and
stabbed again, this time the awful work
being complete. Immediately the riot
was raging in all its fury. Clubs. pistols
and dirks were hourished by the demo-
cratic rioters, and the cries "kill the
damned niggers" filled the air as the at
tack went on. 1t was dastardly act Of
barbarity that would disgrace the South
Sea Islanders. Yet the bloody deed found
its aders aud abettors among the democ.
racy of Indiana. That, however. was to
have been expected as it was the work OF
the democrats themselves.

and he came down on the bridge, saved from
