A Grocery ASSAULTED BY INDIANS AT
o'clock on last Sunday evening small band
of half drunken Indians gathered in front of
little GROCERY, north of Major Gardner 6
residence, and i'll vociferous tones demanded
admittance to the establishment and strong
drink. After satisfying themselves that their
demands would not be recognized one of their
number picked up several large stones from
the street and began hurting them through
the one front window of the house, SCATTERING
the glass panes and sash into fragments. At
this juncture of the pleasantly the proprietor
emerged from his stronghold and with a re
volver blazed away into the midst of the
drunken crowd His aim could not have been
very precise, as the result produced no good

Elsewhere, in our Legislative report, will
be found the vote upon the Wardenship, yes

have been very close one. We are free to
no part whatever in the contest, we should
have been pleased to see Mr.. Swift successful.

YAzoo COUNTY.
A Card from the colored Voters.

EDITORS CLARION: As citizens of Yazoo
county, we feel called on TO take some action
ana make known to the State of Mississippi
and the whole country what we the eolored
citizens, feel and believe to be a true statement
OF affairs In this county. We do not think or
feel that the action of the white people on the
25th OF July meant anything toward the colored
people In any sense except for their peace,
welfare and prosperity. No disturbance or jar
mas occurred between us and our white friends
except perhaps such as would ordinarily occur
at any time and under any other circumstances.
We congratulate our white friends and have
great cause TO congratulate ourselves upon the
very peaeeabIe and pleasant relations that Just
now subsIst between us, and feel gratified
that signs OF abundant success, both in our
social and political as well financial relations
are seen on every hand and strongly incite US To
maintain these relations. Il is with feeling of
perfect security and profound respect that We
make the statement that no mans life, liberty
or property Is IN the least leopardlZed that the
proper protection can be had and will always
be given to each and every citizen, without
regard 10 race, color previous condition, bv
our county and State officials To up our
rear esllmate, We believe our county officials to
be the best and most impartial in the State and
the equals of any in the Union. We declare
that the Democratic party has not violated its
pledges TO Us that il has cut down the goyermen-
tai expenses as explained to by tabulated
statements from the officials; that has reduced
taxation very materially; that il has continued
and improved our public school system; that
II 10 Us the best government We nave
ever known
For these and other reasons we publish 10 the
world, and to our fellow citizens of this State
especially our confidence in and adherence TO
said party and our white friends with whom we
live. We cannot give credence to any report
alleging that the eolored people are in a State
OF confusion or that many of them out
in the swamps. Being ourselves colored
meeting and mingling with colored people
from all parts of the county and being
ourselves scattered over "A large portion
OF ii We are in a position to say that We know
OF none whatever and feel sure none have ever
laid out on account of CONSERVATION fear.
None OF US look upon any movement heretofore
made by white friends as against the color
ed man or his interests, but only 10 avert that
worst of all caIamities that could befaH our
coInty-a race issue. In arresting this fatal is
sue, ruinous to us, and destructive our
property interests we heartily join hands and |
hearts with our Democratic friends and bid /
them a God-speed. We want clash of races
and we pledge ourselves that by action (
there shall be none. As free colored citizens OF 4

his interests to republish these statements and I
we do this both in justice TO ourselves and to

WAsHISGToN, August 30.-Letters are be
ing daily received in this city from colored
men IN the South, especially in Louisiana and

migration still continues, and promises to
assume larger proportions than ever as soon
As the crops are gathered. The letter from
which the following Is an extract was written
by colored man in one OF the river parishes
OF Louisiana, under date Of the 9th instant
1t indicates that the extent of the exodus this
Fall will depend somewhat on whether the
colored people are allowed to vote at the COM
ing election not The writer SAYS:
The Republicans will in my opinion, put
full ticket in the field, and by proper man
agement they can elect their candidates

inaugurate a bulldozing- policy. Ii So. they

stand that sort of thing no longer. They will
leave and try the West, where free speech. a
free ballot and press are tolerated, aud where
a man gets what he earns. The Democrats
are not SO boastful as they used Ia be. They
have lost so much by the colored laborers
leaving the South, it has put them on their
good behavior
Another correspondent writes from New Or
leans:
Our people are leaving by every St Louis
boat Tor Kansas, particularly by the Saturday
evening boats. Not less than 100 leave here
every Saturday evening, and others are wait
ing at Carrollton, Baton Rouge and other
places along the river. One society is going
that will require two boats to carry them

talking about running me out OF this country

Another colored man writes from one oil

We visited Carthage, the county seat OF

small, but thrifty town Of several hundred in
habitants A new and handsome courthouse
has recently been erected. The citizens of
Carthage, and of Leake county generally, are
looking anxiously for the improvement of
Pearl river, and justly think that its impor-
lance has been too long ignored. We were
gratifed to hear good deal of railroad talk,
and the people say that when Gen. Martin
gets his narrow-guage up to Jackson, they will
contribute literally toward carrying it up
through Carthage and Louisville, to Co

the Saturday evening boats
Such movements regulate themselves. Kan
sas will soon be overrun with colored people, and
the white laborers there will regret that most
of them did no remain in the south. Many OF
the coIored men, also, will regret that they
ever left, their old homes, for in new country
some of them will suffer; many have already
suffered on the scanty means afforded by char
ity; but in the end it will be better for the
south to exchange part of her colored labor
