The Jackson (Miss.) Clarion, edited by
F. Barksdale, the bosom friend of JEFF.
Davis and Colonel Lamar, the Democratic
official organ of Mississippi, and the most
influential paper in the State, has this to
say of the Hamburg massacre: " No i'm
martial person can read the reports of the
affair a1Dr0uiisg the conduct of the sChitss,
and at the same time sympathizing with
them in the misfortune Of having been
forced to such an extremity Of sctiOn in
self defense"

Vicksburg Herald.
Governor Stone is the commander in
Mississippi, and wheI troops are needed IN
this State he or tic Legislature will call
for them. Until such call is made the
troops commanded by Colonel Brooke are
trespassers, and Governor Stone will be
justified in ordering him to attend to has
olcz, affairs. If General Anger is anxious
to do something let him send Colonel
Brooke to the Indian Territory. His pres
enee in Mississippi is not needed and should
not be tolerated.

The Hamburg South Carolina) riot is
the latest sensation. The Sioux Indian
massacre fired the Northern heart some
what, but nothing to compare with the
Hamburg affair, in which half dozen
colOred MALTA met with the usual fate IN
race conflict. Some Of our representa-
tives in Congress pour vials of rath on the
white banditti. This may be wise policy,
but the principle zoe do not like.

THE SPIRIT OF THE LATE MISSISSIPPI CAMPAIGN
Aberdeen Examiner, July 26, 1876
God gave the victory to people who
were contending for liberation from the
basest thraldom ever endured by civilized
race, and who would haYe been justified in
swinging their oppressors as food for the
