THE Republicans have nothing TO fear in
the most earnest and searching inquiry into
the Florida affair. As that inquiry now
stands it appears that TnpEN, who has
added to his income-tax thefts, his railroad
wrecking, and his stock jobbing the most
public and revolving crimes of perjury and
blasphemy, has declared that the returning
board was bought. MANToN MARBLE con-
firms (?) this by the assertion that the
board was for sale. Mr. DYKES infamous
and unwarranted offer to buy the board or
sell it to the Tildenites is all the foundation
MARBLE has or had for his statement. This
Cumulation of falsehood serves to aid the
Tildenites in the erection of their claims.
1t all rests upon DYKES unsupported ex-
preston. Call Mr.. DYKE and see if he will
now swear TO that expression or give any
valid reason for his belief DYKES offer
being established as the unwarranted effort
of common plunderer, the structure of
perjury and vile slander will fall to the
ground. There is nothing solid about it.

posed too much upon the belief that the
colored citizen occupies the same relation
to them that was held by slave before the
war-only that the shaclSles of slavery
have been knocked off--and those of bitter
prejudice and unbrdled cupidity have
taken their place. They have shorn the
freedman of his rights Of citizenship by
force and intimidation, leaving nothing of
his manhood but his bone and muscle and

something of the legitimate consequences
OF that wrong. These men who perform the
labor of that country to enrich the planter
will not consent to surrender their citizen
ship to his behest and work on patiently
ana faithfully to heap up riches at his door
while their own political rights and inter-

delve ON the same plane they occupied while

past few years has been attended by such
wrong and brutality that he cannot aud will
not brook it. The great mass of that class
have become so thoroughly disgusted with
the treatment they have received from the
Democratic whites that they long for new
fields of labor and enterprise, and they will

A SpIRIT 0E UNREST

We have been shown private letter from
Port Gibson, Miss, under date of February
2, to fugitive citizen from that State, now
in this city, which makes hearty acknowl-
edgment of the interest taken by the refu-
gee Southern Republicans in this city at
recent meeting held by them, the proceed
ings of which have already been published.

The paper referred to has been handed to

extracts from its columns. An editorial is
rs follows:
MovING,-The State press gives evidence of
commotion among the colored people. They

cant:
We understand that there is much changing
around among cOlOred farm laborers in this
county; and while many planters can get
more labOrers and tenants than they care 10

men find it difficult to get any. White mon
who have been renting and cultivatng small
| farms appear to be on the move also-some
going out Of and Others coming into the
county.
Nothing will arouse the attention of the
Southern planter so soon, or quicken his
apprehension so keenly, as TO sec chance,
even remotely, that he must earn his bread
by the sweat of his own brow, and not by
that of colored citizen who has been shorn
of all his rights save those Of toiling for a

SECESSION and Calhounism is again ram

the Senate of that State have adopted by Il
unanimous vote, u series of notification
resolutions. They deny the right of the
General Government to protect a citizen in
life, liberty, or property, or the exercise of
rights where the State claims jurisdiction ;
declare the legislation which has grown out

IF any Of the Southern electors we're
really for sale, as MANToN MARBLE swears

Nephew PELroN and Mayor COOPER answer
this by saying TILDEN wouldn't permit the
purchase. But the answer is insufficient.
MARBLE and his gang were in Florida and
South Carolina for the purpose of buying
the required electoral votes, and made many
advances or propositions with that object in
view. Elector NASH, of South Carolina, was
thus approached by SMITH WEEDS agents,

Nephew PELToN's methods were different
from those he himself would employ. If
this declaration were true, PELToN might
boast of it as an endorsement of his per-

T1LDEN is now migrate enough to draw this
distinction between himself and his nephew
for the purpose of screening his own conf
plicity in the crimes, or attempted crimes,
of that blood relative. As we have said
