He Advises the Negroes to Go
Back Oh ihe Republican Party.
The Vicksburg Miss Herald
prints the following iesuitical letter
from Gov. b. f. Butler to a colored
politician in that State:
BosroN, MASS, April %, 1S83.-H.
Carter, Vicksburg, Miss.-Dear Sir:
You are mistaken in supposing that
| have any special knowledge Of the
conditions of political affairs in Mis-
sissippi, as [ only see them at a dis
lance strained through the medium
Of the different political papers;
therefore | cannot speak with par
ticularity about Mississippi.
You ask me what line Of conduct
I would advise the colored men of
the South to pdrsue in political af
fairs. To that L answer frankly, Hook
out for yourselves That is to say,
vote for the best man, whose life and
conduct you know well, and who
have shown thereby their desire
that equal justice and equal rights
shall come to all men under the law
No matter what promises are made
by political orators, or what induce
ments are held out to obtain your
votes look to what men have done and
been, and are, and not to what
they say they will do or will be. If
candidate for Office whom you can
trust is in faver of the education Of
your children, the equal taxation of
your property, and the protection Of
your person by law vote for him,
whatever he may becalled politically.
1t is mistake Tor the colored vo-
ters to vote for party solidly, even in
localities where they have the numer-
ical majority but it is equally their
duty to vote for men who will best
represent the interests Of all. You
live in community composed of
both white and colored men, and
you want to have q peaceful, quiet
life in that community. There are
good men in both parties, and you
will obtain the respect of every good
man if you will pursue the course I
have indicated. BY so doing you
will lull the passions and the hard
feelings engendered by the war, and
the disappointments and regrets, il
any, produced by the emancipation
Of the colored man will die out. 1t
is of more consequence to the col
cred man that he shall have peace
and prosperity in the community
where he lives than who is Presi
dent, or who is Senator, or Repre-
sentative to Congress. In word
vote for all good, honest and true
men who are now your friends, and
vote against all men who, by theil
conduct, have not shown themselves
friends, however loud or persistent
their promises may be. Remember
that the Holy Scriptures say: "By
their fruits We shall know them.'
am very truly yours,
BENJAMIN +. BUTLER.

A Terrible Accident.

A New York telegram of 30th ult.,
says a terrible accident occurred on
the New York and Brooklyn bridge
at 4 o'clock, p. M, on that day.
The bridge was crowded to its ut
most capacity on the platform at
the New York tower. The jam be-
came so great that many persons
tainted. A cry of distress was raised
and a dreadful struggle began be-
tween tho panic stricken crowds
coming in from east and west, and
numbers were reported crushed to
death. In the end the crowd com
ing from Brooklyn side prevailed,
and rushed toward the New York
anchorage, trampling down every
thing i'll its way. Men, women and
children were trodden under foot and
falling down the steps leading to
the tower platform were buried I'M
der a mass Of struggling humanity
many feet high. Some twenty-five
or thirty persons lost their lives and
many we've badly injured.
The scenes of terror battle descrip
ton. Many were dead when extrac-
ted from the heap, and others more
on less terribly injured. The clothes
were torn from the bodies of many
in trying to get out of the crush.
Five women dead and trodden into
shapeless masses were taken from
the bottom of the heap. Policeman
Richards escaped death by desper.
ate efforts. The crowd was con,in-
ually increased by pressure from the
Brooklyn side, and people were
pushed over the steps like catar O.
The walk was piled up with bodies
to the height of the steps. There
were heart-rending scenes at police
stations, when friends recognized a
missing one.
A force of policeman took posses
sion OF the New York entrance as
soon as possible after the
accident. Middle footing was clos
ed. The crowd kept increasing,
however, on the Brooklyn side. Ru-
mors spread that the bridge had fall
len. At Chambers street Hospital
were twelve dead bodies taken from
the disaster.

THat Chicken Fight

"The boys" from this point and
Georgetown who attended the cock
fight at Fort Gaines, returned on the
steamer Thronateeska about 9o'elock
last Wednesday night. They report
a very good attendance from various
points in the south and say Fort Gains
realized about 81 500 from the crowd
as pin money upon which to bridge
over the dull summer months. The
hotels or boarding houses were crow
ded and each had to set third or
fourth table for each meal sour
boys" did the best fighting and
whipped the main, but the other side
had the longest purse and did the
best betting. Consequently, if sour
boys had been better heeled, finan-
clalIy, they say they could have cas-
lily brought back $4,000 AS it was
however, they are quite well satisfied
with the result. They got back with
considerably more money than they
had when they left, and they return
ed in style on big steamboat and
actually rode up from the wharf in q
hack.
In thus recording what is going on
around us, we but discharge a plain
duty of all journalists, and it must
not be inferred that we either ap
prove of or counternance the cruel
sport Of cock fighting, for we do not.
Ii comes down to US from a barba.
rous and bloody age, and it is one
OF those popular evils that finds lodg
ment in the human heart which, It
would seem, that even time cannot
eradicate. Many just and honora-
hle men in their dealings with their
fellow-beings, are passionately fond
OF game chickens and the sport of
Oh clen fighting. and there are many
again who, dislike the sport, will vet
countenance it for the opportunity it
affords them to crafty a gambling
propensity. For many years the
pulpit, the press and the law have
sought to suppress the evil, but like
many others growing ont of the de-
praVity of human nature, it still
lives and will continue to live, until
all the 'game" is lost to the ma
trre of the belligerent bird. Eufau-

An Extraordinary Offer 10 all
Wanting IGmDlOXmeut.

We want Live, Energetic and Ca
pable Agents in every county in tire
United States and Canada, to sell a
patented article of great merit, On
its merits. An article having a large
sale, paying over Hooper cent. profit,
having no competition, and on which
the agent is protected in the exclu-
sive sale by Il deed given for each
and every county he may secure
from us. With all these advantages
to our agents, and the fact that it is
an article that can be sold to every
house-owner, it might not be neces-
sary to make an ''EGtraordinary
OFFER to secure good agents at once
but we have concluded to make it 10
show, not only our confidence in the
merits of our invention, but in it's
STABILITY by any agent that will han
die it with energy. Our agents now
at work are making from $3.50 to
$500 month clear, and this fact
makes it safe for us to make our Of
fer to all who are out Of employment.
Any agent that will give our business
thirty days trial and fail to clear
at least 500 III this time, above all
expenses, can return all unsold to us
and we will return the money paid
for them. ANY agent or General
Agent who would like ten or more
counties and work them through sub
agents for ninety days, and fail to
clear at least $3.50 o6oUe all expenses
can return all unsold and get their
money back. No other employer
of agents ever dared to make such
offers, nor would we if we did not
know that we have agents now max
ing more than double the amounts
we guaranteed, and that but two
sales day would give a profit of
over $l25 month, and that one of
our agents took eighteen orders in
one day. Our large descriptive cir
culars explain our offer fully, and
these we wish to send to every one
out of employment who will send us
three one cent stamps for postage.
Send at once and secure the agency
in time for the boom, and go to work
on the terms named in our extraor-
binary offer. We would like to have
the address Of all the agents, sewing
machine solicitors and carpenters in
the country, and ask any reader of
this paper who reads this offer, to
send us at once the name and adj.
dress Of such they know. Address
at once, as this advertisement will
not appear again, and you will lose
the best chance ever offered to those
out of employment to make money

A Word From The Publishers to
Thear Friends.

Some weeks ago, a gentleman passed
through our city by the name of Hawley,
exhibiting what we considered a most
wonderful success in the way of washing
machine. Nor were we alone in this opin-
ion. Everybody that saw it wash concur
red with US. We were induced to buy the
right to this and several other counties, be-
lieving in so doing, that we would be able
to confer upon all house-keepers in this
section great benefaction, by making it
possible for each of them to obtain one Of
these machines. We reasoned about this
new enterprise in sthis manner: If it is a
humbug, we don't want to sell it. We had
rather lose the money it cost us than to
put off humhug upon our subscribers and
friends. We thcreupon determinedto place
these machines in the hands of several Of
our most prominent and reliable citizens
upon trial. In every instance we asked
these gentlemen to give the machine thor
ough test, and, if they were not satisfied
to return the machine to us and not one
word should be said about selling. This
was done, and in every single instance the
parties were not only pleased, but came UP
and gave us their certificates to that effect.
We are now thoroughly satisfied that we
have the only washing machine in the
world that is a success, and we can offer
it to the general public feeling assured that
it is all we claim for it. Any child IL
years of age can do the washing of whole
family with one Of these machines in one
fourth of the time that it formerly took
the washer-women to do it by the old ruiz
board plan. In using this machine it is
not necessary at any time to put your
| hands into the water, and, besides, you
stand up in an erect position all the time
no bending over and no crippled backs
when the washing is done. With thie
machine you may wash fifty pieces just as
easily and quickly as you can wash one.
1t washes bed quilts, blankets and carpets
with as much facility as a pocket hand
kerchief. It does away with all boiling OF
clothes. There is no rubbing-nO friction
and hence the wear and tear saved by
washing on one Of these machines will pay
for it in few washings. Ladies who have
! fine lace of any kind to wash can not af-
ford to be without one of these machines
| 1t only costs $50, and is well worth ter
times the money to any family to have one

reservations and may be called civilized.
They are growing fewer in number each
year. Yet the cost Of their keeping and
education increases. From 1855 to 1865

600; from 1859 to 1888 there was spent
for Indians SOL 900 900. The excess is
