Going Rack to ola nIe,hOd.,

| A special despatch from Washing.
ton says: The conviction prevails In
Washington that the remarkable story
photographed yesterday from Alabama
about an alleged conspiracy among the
blacks to murder all the whites In
Choctaw county is the invention of the
6ulldozers and White Lesguers, and
that the hanging of "Jack" Turner
without a trial is only the beginning
OF another season of political terror
ism. The report that seveal hundred
negroes had formed a conspiracy for
any purpose, and had for years been
able to keep 1t secret from their white
masters while they were gathering
arms and ammunition in quantities
sufficient for their purpose, is sufficient
ly absurd to create disbelief In the
minds of any who are familiar with
Ehe habits and characteristics of the
two races in that locality; but that
these illiterate people should have com.
mitted their plans to paper, in the
opinion of people who are familiar with
the political affairs and prevailing sem
timents Of that section, betrays the
origin and purposes of the story.
SIT discloses condition of affairs, !"
said prominent Alabamian to-day,
''for which l fear there Is no remedy.
Our State elections have just been held
and we are counted out to the tune of
AZ 900 majority. We have fairly cap
tured the Democratic stronghold Of the
State-the northern counties, which
have hitherto been Democratic, and we
send q members from that part of the
State to the Legislature. Enough white
rebelled from Bourbon rule to secure
fair counts and with the result have
named"
"In the Black Belt, however, where
we have always been in the majority,
we have been overturned by sheer fraud
and false counting.
''But what is to be expected? Three
Democratic county officials, who were
elected by fraud, constitute our can
vassing board. Why should they not
forever prevent an election which
would turn them out of office?
"Now the Democrats are prepa ring
for the Congressional election. They
have lost loves district, and the
Fourth District Is safe enough for the
opposition. The State election dis
closed the fact that the Mobile District,
of which Choctaw county forms part,
Is likely to add another to the list of
Anti-Bourbon Congressman. Hence
this marvellous yarn about negro con.
spiracy. They have selected the coun-
ty Of the very strongest man for Con.
gress in the district-I refer to Judge
Luther r. Smith, a graduate of Bow
doin, q man who has sat on the Circuit
Court bench of the State for twelve
years, and whose record is unimpeach-
able. With jail full of negroes, they
can run one out and hang him every
few days, and thus get up a state of
terrorism which they hope may keep
the coored people away from voting"

Left Out,

The following resolution, which forms
part of the platform adopted by the
Democrats at their Convention on Tues
day, did not appear iu our rcport of the
proceedings yesterday. 1t relates to
mixed schools and should be read by
all our readers:
Resolved, That we cherish our free
school system as one of the corner
stones of good and stable government,
and are in favor of its further develop
ment, and the education of the poor as
we'll as the rich but we denounce as
an obstacle to education the policy OF
the Republican party. which looks to.
wards the gradual establishment OF
mixed schools.

THERE SHOULD BE 40 MORE CONTACT OF PER-
son THAN IN WALKING.
lFrom an interview with a New York Dancing
MsSicr.i
..What is your idea Of the modern mode
Of support i'm round dancing
"My idea is that rs ii is seen at public
balls and Long Branch hops il l. most in
elegant, ill-bred, immodcst, and umneces-
sarv. 4 lady who dances well and grace
fully maintains her independence Of mo-
ton and perfect balance. The moment
she becomes a clinging vine, and allows her
head TO rest on mans shoulder, and his
arm TO embrace instead OF support her, she
shows not only n shocking lack OF refine
ment, but Of good dancing, end impedcs
her partners movements rs well as her
oWn."
"What do YOU consider the proper sup
portl"
"The gentleman should take the lady's
right hand in his lett and she place her left
hand upon his shoulder, the fingers appear
ing in front. The gentleman should rest
his right hand gently upon the lady's back
near the waist, and both should stand on
parallel lines looking over the other 5
shoulder, the lady turning her head
slightly to the left. Both should bend
the upper portion OF the person slight
", so that the shoulders should not be
more than -four inches apart, and the hands
that are caspcd should remain only few
inches irom'the person, not allowing the
wild sticking out Of arms recently adopted.
In this grouping there is no more contact
OF person than a lady taking n gentleman's
arm Tor walking. But TO put the whole
matter in nutshell, the vulgar and vicious
waltz yulgarly and yiciously, the refined in
a refined and innocent manner"
"Among what nation do you find the
best dancersl"
"Forty years observation and expert
cnco has led me TO conclude that American
women are the best dancers in the world.
The Germans are very correct and easy,
but not graceful; the English put too
much struggle into il; the French are In
clined TO angularity; but the American
