Raatheru Murders.

Aaatheru Murders.
FACTS are stubborn things, they can
not be contradicted, and one OF the
shameful facts of the timss il, that
practically tho ga!lows OF the South il
only for the execution of negroes. Let
q colo:sd man commit crime, and
there is not the slightest difficulty in
apprehending, convicting and hanging
him. The usual mode is to lynch and
hang him without the benefit Of tho
law. Ii he escapes the msb there is no
unnecessary delay, The trial is hurried
through pell mell, and new trial or
reprisve for negro is something un-
known. II he have mo- counsel, so much
the worse for him, and ii he have not
Witnesses, il saves q great deal Of time
and expense. The demand for justice
ia tremendous, and the great necessity
OF the time is to hang him, and that as
speedily as possible. We have no dis
position to befriend the negro in the
comm mission of crime. II he be muir
.derer or guilty of committing any capi-
tai offence, let him bs hung, but why in
tho name OF outraged justice should =
black murderer bs hanged and white
murderer escape! The great majority
of the murders in the south are con-
mitted by whites, but who evsr hears
of white murderer being hung, espe.
cially if he murders black man
We ara not referring to political muir
ders, where black men are shot down
by scores because they want to vote the
Republican ticket, for there is no hope
that any white man will be hung for SC
slight an offence. Such murderers in
ths South are elected to Office, and sc
commop has the killing of negroes be

South American Incident.

A characteristic incident Of south
American politics is reported by the
Buenos Ayres correspondent Of the
Cologne Gazette. Don Carlos Soto for
merly consul Of the republic Of Uruguay
in London, organized conspiracy
against the life of Col. Latorre, governor
of the republic. As he was describing
his plan Of action at meeting CT the
conspirators held in a room OF the bar
racks Of the 3D. regiment OF the line, the
door opened suddenly and Latorre
walked in. Advancing upon Soto, the
governor quietly said: Before You kill
me, Carlos, | will kill you" and struck
him on the head with a loaded whip.
Soto fell to the ground, and a soldier of
the governors suite dispatched him
with dagger. Notwithstanding this,
Latorre is, says tie correspondent, al
most popular in Uruguay.
