Robbing CoIored Citizens.

A correspondent writes us from Port Glib
son, Miss, under date of December %, 1877,
and says: THE time of year has come in
which we hear of the infamous frauds prac-
ticed upon the colored people by way of pur-
chases and the settling up of yearly ac-
counts" In this expression we are remind
ed that there are two periods each year in
which the colored man in the South be-
comes the victim of deliberate robbery and
wrong. One is when he settles his annual
account with his employer, or him whose
land he works on shares, and the other
when he attempts to exercise his rights MS
citizen at the ballot-box. In the first in
stance he is despoiled of his property or
wages by system of fraudulent and
trumped up charges on book account
which are grossly dishonest and unjust, and
to which he is forced to submit by the pre-
pondeance of prejudice and concerted
action against him. He works like slave
during the summer, and when the day of
settlement comes he is robbed like a slave
of the greatest portion of his hard earn
ings. This is the policy of the land-holder
to keep the colored man in poverty and
consequent dependence.
Then again, when the season arrives for
the colored man to exercise his right of
suffrage, he is to great extent despoiled of
his freedom Of citizenship, and not unfre-
quently of his life, if he attempts to exercise
his right of suffrage independent of the die
tation of his Democratic neighbors.
These are simple facts, and they show
how poorly the colored citizen fares under
the existing policy of reconciliation and
pacifcation. Such things disgrace the
country, and we trust the fine will yet
come, and not very far in the future, when
American citizenship will find a common
respect and protection in every portion Of
our country.

The Columbus Miss Inder says: "The
question has been asked, How does Mr..
LAMAR stand in regard to the financial
measures now before Congress? 1t is init
mated that he is leaning toward New Eng
land, Wall street, and the bond-holders 1t
is further suggested that he will vote against
the silver bill and the bill repeating the re-
sumption act. Should he do so, he will have
an account to settle with his constituency
that will be difficult for him to meet. We
can assure him that his hold upon the peo-
pie of Mississippi is not sufficiently strong
tOjustify him in the assumption, if he should
make it, that he can curry favor with the
East, and in doing so compromise the inter
ests of his own section with impunity. No
matter what purposes he may have in view
in endeavoring to cOnciliate the North, the
people who have elected and trusted and
honOred him have no desire to become par
ties to them. He has been made by them
their representative, and he should appre-
ciate the fact They have generously over
looked some of his shortcomings, and if he
il wise he will make their welfare, and not
his ambition, his guide in the Senate"

named MUMFORD at New Orleans by Cen

was executed was the pulling down Of the
United States flag from a staff on the New

that he was the person who pulled the flag
from the statfaud passed it to Captain OLIVER
CANTON, ,ofthe Lower Mississippi riverp packet

corrobOrate this account Of the affair. MUM
FORD was on the roof at the time with a

received the flag from CANTON. If the

AMONG the fhrces in the State of Missis-
sippi is that of drawing jurors for the sew
eral courts. Under the law the names of
the entire adult male population are placed
in a box, and the panels are drawn at
hazard therefrom. There was a recent jury
drawing in Lauderdals County, Mississippi,
under this law. In that county the white
and colored population are of about equal
numbers. The drawing of three panels of
twelve each show but two colored jurymen
drawn in each panel, making thirty whites
70 six colored out of thirty-six jurymen,
with about an equal number Of each in the
box. 1t Is a little peculiar that the same
number of colored jurymen should have
been drawn in each panel if there was any
chance about the drawing. Chance is
usually more fckle than in this instance,
and it looks as if there was great method
in her fckleness. We merely cite this,
which we CLEAN from Mississippi paper, to
show the chance given to the colored citi-
sen in that State.

upon the scene. The poor are growing
richer, as fortune after fortune are thrown
on the shore of the commercial sea In
wrecks; and the wretkers are those who,
protected by their bonds and boarded gold,
have nothing to do but to gather in the val
uables that are washed OH the strand Of
common disaster.
If this Government is for the people,
so long as it is not strictly Of and by
the people under existing policies, we ap-
peal to the Congress of the United States
and to the Executive to so shape the ad
ministration of public affairs as to bring
some early relief to the business interests of
the country. There is an impending crash
in commercial circles, and the falling tim
bers betoken more general and wide
spread disaster. Individual credit is being
wrecked constantly, showing that no busi-
ness extension under existing contraction
and stringency can long endure the strain
without breaking 1t now devolves upon
the executive and legislative branches of
the Government to afford relief The
people have nowhere else to look or go for
succor. Thesc disasters are the legitimate
consequences of the existing policy of
contracting and boarding money for
resumption, and the Gordian knot
should be unloosed at the earliest
possible moment after Congress re-
assemblies. We have not been an en-
thusiastic advocate of repeal Of the re-
sumption act, but now that it is clearly re-
vealed that between this measure and the
cruel avarice Of the money power, the mer-
camille, commercial, and industrial interests
of the people are being crushed in ruin, we
say cut the cord that binds us to resump-
ton in 1879, and let us float lcisurely again
until the country and the Government are
prepared to resume. 1t is folly for the
Government to attempt an impossibility,
and the attempt at resumption within
twelve months, under the existing coin vol
ume of the country, is as indiscreet and
hazardous as DoN QU1NoTTEs assault
upon the windmill.

The Income Tax.

The prospective effort to re-enact the odi-
Gus income tax calls forth the following
remarks from the Cleveland Herald:
While as an abstract question, an income
tax is fair in principle and equitable in char
acter experience has shown that no more
odious tax was ever levied upon the American
people. The objection to it in its practical
workings did not come only from the men
compelled to pay the largest tax, but was
loudly resisted as an inquisitorial outrage upon
the private affairs and business Of men who
paid no tax whatever. More enemies were
made to the Government during the war by
the income tax than in any other manner
growing out of taxation. The reluctance men
felt at the examination of their books, papers,
and business, though done ever so dclicately
by the officers IN charge, they being compelled
to explain in detail matters of alleged profit
able transactions, which in reality were only
losses the eager curiosity Of business men to
understand the nature and profits of their
neighbors business, the loss of credit following
the transactions Of a bad year, all rcmOrsclesSly
laid bare to the people by the report of the
assessor, provoked profound disgust and almost
rebellion.

statement of BURGESS be true, 1t appears
that he skulked away from justice at the
time in very cowardly manner and per-
mitted his friend MuMFoRD to propitiate
an offense of which he was himself guilty,
and now he comes to the front to emblazon
his own preserved infamy. The mistake
that General BUTLER made was that he did
not hang BURGESS, CANTON, and MuMFoRD
in row, like three candles in a tai
low-chandler shop and then he would have
fully secured the ends of justice

will make q speech on civil-servicc reform,
upon the reasscmbling of Congress, in which
he will favor appointments on the ground of
capacity, and not for political favor, and would
then retain the appointecs during good be-
havior. All very well, and we are glad that
Mr.. GORDON has been converted from the
error of his way. He can make his speech in
teresting by explaining why then, he favored a
change recently in the New York custom house
There were no charges against the incumbents,
and they should certainly have been retained
SO long as their behavior was not complained
of. He can make it still more interesting by
explaining how it happened that he advocated
the nomination Of n good man for United
States Marshal of Georgia, and then withdrew
the recommendation when he asccrtained that
his nominee was disposed to affiliate with

GENERAL BUTLER made good point, in
his speech before the Banks Club, on the
quotation from DANIEL WEBsTERs speech
to the effect that gold and silver were the

that any interference with them, as legal
