A Letter Written BY Him Etght

The Dss Moines (Iows) "Rsgistsr, I"
Of Sept. 3, says:
The Rev. Mr.. Hsdrix, Of Fairfield,
Iowa, has sent us copy OF q letter that
Capt. Leslie Bassstt, Of Keokuk county,
this State, q gentleman Of high stand.
ing, who has just bsen nominated by
the Republicans Of this county for Au
ditor, received from Capt. Dixon, Of
Mississippi. written only eight days
before that gentleman was murdered
by order Of the Democratic party for
the crime Of being an Independent
Democrat.
Here 10 the letter, as we take II from
the original. Being published for the
first time after Capt. Dixon's death, 1t
comes to the American people as .
warning out of the grave, and an ad
monition to them to look we'll to the
ulterior purpose Of the Solid South, in
whose interest this murder was com
mitted, and in the secret schemes Of the
Democratic party, by whose order 1t
was done.
"YAzoo Cry, Aug. ll.-Leslis Bas-
sstt, ESQ.,, Richland, Keokuk County,
Iowa: Your favor Of Aug. 6 is in hand.
l mail you copy Of the "Hsrald," and
am grisved to say it is too true; all you
have heard through the Northern press
Of the outrage perpetratsd in this coun-
ty on July 25. Since that time per-
feet reign OF terror has existed in this
county. My associate on the Independ.
ent ticket for Chsnoery Clerk has besn
hunted and his house surrounded for
several nights by armed men, number
ing from so to 100, dem handing his with
drawal from the canvass, but as yet
they have been unable to see Mr.. J. E.
Bell, who is the candidate for Chancery
Clerk.
There is no Republican ticket in this
county. The Independent ticket is
composed of Democrats, but on account
Of the colorsd people supporting the
ticket SO generally, 1t has aroused the
DOuT DOu D0mOCTAtS W BUM ui6u
pitch that they declare no opposition
ticket shall be put in the field. Every
effort is being made to cover up their
action on the 25th ultimo. You can
not imagine or picture the scene Of that
mob, and but for onr gallant Mayor, J.
Holt, blood would have been spilled
and myself and many friends murder
cd. As to the race issue, that is all
bosh.
The negroes are all quiet, and could
not be reused to srms by any one, and
we're they to attempt such thing, no
one would rally to the protection of the
intelligence Of the couAty quicker than
myself, and every white person in the
county knows it. have said nothingj as

MBssRs. EDIroRs:--- After Sabbath
School on Sunday afternoon with two
lady friends went to visit . sick friend
living on Orange street. After leaving
the church We had to pass q great many
men sitting at the different cigar shops
and larger beer places, but met with
no annoyance until on our way back
Returning along Fourth street, We no.
ticed when we got 10 King street that
we must either pass over on the other
side In the hot sun, or pass lot OF
rough looking men at . livery stable
kept between King and French streets,
but We concluded to keep on the same
side. As We passed them We were con-
scious Of ugly remarks being made, and
when they found that we did not notice
them, one Of their number gave low
peculiar whistle which ended in loud
guffsw by the whole crowd. Now |
want to know If such conduct should be
tolerated. If the proprietor of that es-
tablishment must keep such animals
around him, why does he not put a
halter around their necks, and put
them in stalls out Of the way Of per-
sons who must necessarily pass there.
Or ifthe Mayor could find policeman
who has manliness enough in his COM
position to protect lady from insult,
it would be better to have one to look
after such places. There is certainly
some redress for those who are unable
to help themselves. Things are getting
to rather low ebb if lady cannot
walk along the streets in the day time
without being insulted. She can take
care of herself at night by staying in
the house. NJ.
