INCENDIARISM IN THE SOUTH.
NEW YORK, November 13th.-A special
to the World, concerning a destructive fire
ut Eufaula, Ala, says il was most undoubt-
edly the work of negroes, and is another
evidence of the dangerous excitement ex-
isting among this race since the election of
Cleveland. While this state of affairs will
probably die out before bloodshed results,
the situation is far from pleasant. 1t has
already cost over $1,000000 in the South,
as eXemplitied i'll the Palatka, Fla. and
Eufaula, Ala, coniiagrations
ACTS OF DRUNKEN RoUGHs
WASHINGTON, November 1lth.-A special
to the Times says: Considerable excite
ment has been caused here by reports of the
tearing down OF the stars and stripes by
Richmond rOwdies, the stoning of Govern
ment buildings at Frankfort Kentucky,
and an attack on Baltimore letter-carriers
by drunken Democrats. Since these occur
rences many explanatory letters have been
received from all the points named, stating
that the perpetrators of the ruilianism were
miserable, drunken roughs, and that their
acts are by no means any evidence of a
prevailing sentiment against the flag of the
Union.
BELIEF OF THE NEGROES DOWN SOUTH.
NEW YORK, November 13th.-A special
from Nashville, Tenn, says: Nearly all
the negroes in this city, and doubtless
throughout the entire South, seem to think
some dire calamity is going to befall them
owing to the defeat of Blaine. He was al
most without exception their candidate,
there being scarcely such a thing as a
Democratic negro. II is almost pitiable
to observe their detection. The Times,
commenting on the above state of things
says: The Atlanta Constitution and Mem
pbis Appeal have been doing needful and
timely service TO the Southern negroes by
assuring them that the election of. Cleve-
land does not iii any way imperil the rights
conferred upon them by the Constitution
and the laws. The T ines adds: If the
whites of the South have been solid in poll
tics against the North, the blacks South
have been equally sold against the whites,
and colored Democrats are ut least as rare
in the South as white Republicans.
