WADE HAMPTON STILL. CRACKING THE SLAVE.
HOLDING WHIP.
Mr.. Ihillips-In every sentence he has uttered
on his way to Washington l Can hear the crack
OF the old slayeh0lding whip. Since 1860 have
not heard the crack Of that whip until Hampton
sent that insolent letter to Grant. live had to-
day man in the White House Hampton would
never be admitted there after such insolence. II
| read the signs correctly the people have more
self-respect than Hayes has, and he will soon
hear warning growl along the ground tier.
Correspondent-Whyn not visit, sir, and let the
Administration have time to try its experiment?
TREAcHERoUs BARGAIN.
Mr.. Phillips For two reasons. The Presi-
ment, but q treacherous bargain, and besides,
the steps they are going to take are very perilous,
and once taken are irrevocable. There is no
doubt OF the bargain that sold us out. The Re-
pubican papers very properly held Tilden re-
sponsible for his nephews (Pel.on) acts, though
1ilden never knew each detail. So hold Hayes
responsible for his friends when they sold him ont
to the white South. The bargain is plain. On
the one side the Democrats were TO stop flibus-
tering and let Hayes be counted in. On his side
his friends agreed TO Withdraw the troops; second
TO recognize Nichols and Hampton as Governors;
third, to charter the Southern Pacific Railway,
giving away millions OF national acres and mil
lions of National bonds. {Let working men take
notice. This last item won Jay Gould and his
pocketpiece, the tribune. We shall see the bar
gain carried out soon. This delay and Commits
sion are only TO let us down easily and accustom
the public mind to the descent. The troops once
Withdrawn blood and starvation will rule the
South. There will be no Republican State South
Of the Potomac. or course no Democratic Cover
nor or Legislature will ever cali for the national
troops, and hence no soldier can cross she sacred
boundary line OF State. Henry Wilson con-
fessed to me that our great mistake was
in lifting these territories, after the war,
into States. Then there will be q "solid South
the old slave power under 3 new name. The next
Congress and tho next President will be Demo-
cratic unless the North becomes volcano. Then
you will see millions ADDED to the national debt
in the shape Of pensions TO Confederate soldiers,
loans to Southern States and railways, payment
of half the State debts, etc. When that hell
opens you will see Hill and Lamar put off their
company clothes and their disguise Of good beha-
yior. They will appear in tn Dir own proper per-
sons. You will not see Lamar, the actor, per-
forming rhetoric over Summers dead body. But
You viii hear Lamar, the Southern white, shame
lessly proclaiming In excuse for that eulogy OF
Sumner, "You understand. I saw the CARCASS
and used 1t 10 hoodwink the Yankees"

The party took carriages for the Lin

At. the next Mississippi State election
voters will be allowed to vote for two
amendments to our State constitution.
One will be abolish the office Of
Lieutenant Governor; the other to
change the meeting of the Legislature
from once every year to once every two
years. The Holly Springs South sug-
/ gests third amendment, and the peo-
| pie would heartily approve 1t Our State
elections occur In the odd year OF the
calendar, and the Federal elections IN
the even years. A constitutional amend
ment Is required to make the State cleo
4 tions correspond with those OF the
| United States, 30 as to have no election
every other year. This periodical re-
pose from political agitation, is con-
| summation greatly to be desired, and
there is no sufficient reason why 1t
should not be brought about.

A singular affair occurred near Far

Dallas, on last Friday night, resulting
in the death OF a negro woman. For
several nights previous, different at
tempts had been made by thieves to
enter the stable OF Mr.. Longmire, con-
sequently strict watch was kept. On
the night in question the deceased, who
is represented to have been dissipated
and abandoned character, rode up to the
place OF Mr.. Longmire and halted. She
was hailed, but returning an unsatis-
factory answer, Mr.. Longmire seized q
club and hurled 1t at her with such
force as to knock her from the horse,
which galloped rapidly away. No effort
was made that night to discover the ef-
fects Of the throw, but In the morning
the corpse OF the. woman was found
where it fell from the horse. The night
was extremely cold, and whether death
resulted from the blow or from expo
sure, 1t is impossible to tell.
