"vENGEAGNCE is MINE :

The cowardly murder of the Chisolms
father, son and daughter is yet fresh in
the minds Of our readers Perhaps, could
we search the annals of crime for ages,
we could not point out more merciless
and cowardly piece of work. Because a
man differed from his neighbors in his
political convictions. he was shot down,
his little boy riddled with bullets, and
his youthful and accomplished daughter
first shot, and then beaten by the fists of
the brave, chivalrous Mississippians. For
this terrible crime, which was committed
during the excitement Of an hour, so to
speak. the bull-dozers have been vainly
endeavoring, ever since, to find some ex-
cuse, some palliative circumstances, in
order to ease their own minds, as well as
to make them appear the less infamous
in the eyes of the world. For, though
they might escape punishment at the
hands of the legal authorities, they found
it impossible to escape from themselves.
With the execution Of Walter Riley. a
few days since, perished the last hope OF
the Kemper County chivalry Of finding a
reasonable excuse for the Chisholm butch
cry. 1t was claimed. by some Of the
whites, that Riley had murdered one
Gully, (for which Riley was executed, at
the instigation OF Judge Chisolm, and
every effort was made to iuduce Riley to
make a statement to that effect. At the
gallows, Riley was subjected, for more
than an hour, to the coaxing, urging, and
pleading of the crowd, in order to induce
him to say something which might i'm
plicate Chisolm in the murder Of Gully.
One hoary-headed old sinner went for
ward, with fearful eyes and flowing nose,
and solem My warned Riley, that he must
implicate some one besides himselfin the
murder Of Gully, or he, (Riley) could not
hope for peace in the next world In all
that crowd OF gallant Mississippans, there
was not one public-spiritcd enough to
choke the sacrilegious old scoundrel
with a dead cat.
1t would have been a grand sight ior
the widow of the murdered Chisolm-
this negro, Riley, standing upon the gal
lows, poor, despised, a selfaccusing mur
derer, yet going to his death with heroic
bravery, with the truth upon his lips. as
serting, to the last, that he alone was
guilty of the murder OF Gully, while the
crowd of murderous whites, now that
they had no terrors for Riley, were beg.
ging, almost praying, that the negro
murderer might say some little word
which would ease their own minds.
The vengeance of the Great Ruler. j
not always swift is always sure. The
cowardly murderers Of Cornelia anC
Johnnie Chrisolm, will not go unpunished

The Chivalry Still Numbering.

About a week ago, we are informed, P.
X. Hammett, who resides near Alcorn
University, shot and wounded one Isaiah
Davis, colored man, who was crossing
his plantation after having been forbid
den to do so. Davis was shot in the face,
and one ear was completely torn from his
head He arose and said that he had
been taken advantage of and would see
his assailant again. The same night the
unfortunate victim, Davis, was in bed
with a colored woman on the Murdock
place, near by, when a band OF masked
men, about dozen, entered the cabin
and, taking the woman from the bed
filling the body of Davis with bullets,
killing him almost instantly. Davis, re.
alizing the terrible situation OF affairs an d
the utter hopelessness of his case, drew
the sheet over his head and met death
without resistance.

1t seems that the man who was more
specially at the head of the Hayes recep-
ton in Atlanta, and to whose charge
Mrs. Hayes was specially committed, is
the wretch who superintended the muir
derous hanging of Gen. o. NJ. Mitchells
scouts in 1862, and who, when one of our
poor boys feet reached the ground, seized
spade and dug away the earth from
under him, with brutal oaths and iests.
What pity that the hangman Wirtz,
the guerrilla Ferguson and the assassin
Wilkes Booth, are not alive that they
might take their turn at these "recep-
tions." If President Hayes does not re-
sent the insult offered to himself and un-
suspecting wife, it will be because honor
and manhood have, as in the lottery
gamblers case, given way to the policy"
The above is from the Columbus Her
aid. Mr.. Furay might as well posses his
soul in patience. Hayes feels exceeding
ly honored that these murderous traitors
show him and his wife any countenance.

THE FIRST VICTORY.

On Wednesday of last week the U. S.
Senate remained in executive session FIVE
or six hours, debating the Presidents ap-
pointments for n. Y. City. They were
finally rejected by seven majority. Near
ly all the Democrats stood by the Presi-
dent, and nearly all the Republicans went
with Conkling. The warmest defender
the President had was the rebel Gordon,
Of Georgia. Senator Conkling spoke an
hour and half, and it is said that he
made the most able and brilliant speech
he ever made in his life
1t was famous victory over a political
traitor and a sham reformer

In fulfllment Of the promise to keep
Republic readers posted on Narrow

items of information are laid before
them, this evening, all in the right direc-
ton and showing progress made.
The road to South Charleston is ready
for the running of trains. On the 25th
of this month the third locomotive will
be here from the Baldwin Works, Phila-
delphia, and train of passenger cars is
ready; at the shops in Dayton, for deliv-
cry. Five gangs of men are at work lay

tional force having been put on this
morning, and next Monday morning the
force will be doubled, and the work COM
pleted for the passage of a train by the
first of January The roadbed is ready
for the iron to reenfeld-indeed prac-
tically to Bainbridge, the grading, tres
tling and bridging being now very nearly
completed The iron is on hand for the
track layers and in that department
work will be pushed if funds are forth
coming.
Inc neaVy NIL WOFk Is well along To-
ward the eastern end of the road and
January first gangs will be put to work
laying track westward from Waverly, to
meet those at this end. In q few days,
also, contracts will be closed for the con
struction OF a short spur of road five or
six miles in the direction of Wellston,
giving access TO the famous hill coal of
jackson county, for domestic use. Trains
are still making regular trips between
jackson and Waverly, with good patron
age, and the trestling, and such work, is
finished to Farmersville, about six miles
west Of Waverly, leaving between that
point and Bainbridge, section of per-
haps fifteen miles, on which as many
gangs OF men, under the different con-

Hon. l. T. Monahan, of Jackson, will
be presented by Senator Duncan to the
Democratic caucus as a candidate for
Chaplain of the Senate Exchange.
That will never do, and Duncan should
know better than to do it, Last fall
Bro Mackley OF the Jackson STANDARD,
charged Monahan with renting his hotel
and permitting a bar to be kept in it
where strong drinks were sold. Far bet
ter take Bro. Mackley, of the STANDARD,
for he is a truly good man, a christian
and prophet. We go for Mackley for
the position Of Chaplain. Monahan is a
fraud and a cheat-so the Democrats
found him to be-and can prove it by
Mackley.-[Brown County News.
We protest Monahan is the man. He
says that he is going to spend the winter
at Columbus. He will exactly suit the
Democratic Senate as Chaplain. What
does a Democratic Senate want with a
truely good man, who is Christian and

As a mere party speculation the South
ern policy of President Hayes has al
ready resulted in the overthrow of two
Republican State governments, the total
abandonment Of the Republican organ
ization in four other Southern States,
the practical annihilation Of the Republi.
can party in one-half the Union, its loss
OF Ohio, Pennsylvania and California in
the North, its loss Of the United States
Senate and consequent loss Of National
offices, and its decentralization and dis
couragement everywhere. Such is a
brief summary of the results of this fatal
policy to the Republican party. The
wound it has inflicted upon justice, free
dom and humanity cannot yet be calcu-
lated Columbus Herald.

One Of the Washington Correspondents
says:
Wade Hampton himself is a cheat, as
his father was before him. He knows
perfectly well that il is utterly impossible
for him TO perform what he has promised,
and while he and others like him use
President Hayes as their convenient tool;
they will vote so as to organize the Gov
ernment to serve as a Southern machine
as it did before the war. The worst
feature in President Hayes is that he is
a political Rip Van Wrinkle, an old fash
ioned Northern snob-that class which
before the war believed that all the hon
or, all the gentlemen, resided in the
South They could never eat dirt enough
to satisfy their own morbid appetite for
submission. Hayes attitude to Wade
Hampton and NJ. C.. Butler-the one
swindler and the other cut-thrOat--is
that of fawning sycophant, anxious for
the honor of showing himself in their
company OF course the Southerners de
spise, and yet will use such men. The
time will come when some new division
will call the old Northeastern earnestness
into action. If there is political col
lision between the North and South, the
negro vote will come to the front, and we
may look for an impartial Administra-
tion for eight or twelve years. IL, which
| is not at all probable, it should be a col
| lission OF violence, and the North should
90 down in arms again to the Gulf, they
will leave no blade Of grass behind them.
Meanwhile the negro must trust to the
influences of industrial progress and civ.
/ ilization for his general protection and
| his general rights.
