Justifying the Bloodshed.

A writer in the News, of this city,
who has travelled extensively in the
South in the last few years, with good
opportunities of observations, admits
the general slaughter of negroes, but
j~ustiiies it by saying that the Almighty
could no doubt have made a white race
that would submit to be governed by
negroes, but He never has. This may
be true; and the problem which per-
plexes the people Of the South may be
solved only at the end of decades of
blood and violence. But does it follow
that that particular portion of the white
race should be put at the head of the
National Government? 1t may be that
under our form of Government the Ma
ton has no right to inquire into the
methods of any particular State, and
rapine and blood may prevail without
National interference, unless it be in
Japan, or India. or Ireland. But
should it be a passport to power in the
Nation, that the white race keep the
colored people under subsection by shot
guns and ropes? But that writer
wholly overlooks an important factor
in this matter of shooting. 1t is not
negroes only that are maltreated. 1t is
not even ''carpet-baggerS, as they call
all immigrants who dare to speak and
vote against these men, but native-born
citizens, white men, men who have
never voted any other than the Demo-
cratic ticket; men who have heretofore
gone with the multitude on negro
cummings" but who, for cause, have
chosen to break away from them and
encourage others to do the same, and
true men, born and educated on the
soil. who have never been murderers,
are shot as relentlessly as the negroes
themselves, whenever they choose to
break away from that type of Democ-
racy which is in fraternal relations with
what they are pleased to call the Ma
tional Democracy-that Democracy
which is now in the majority in the
House of Representatives, wholly
through these shotgun methods. and
which is plotting to elect a President of
their own faith and order, through this
Democratic machinary.
WHO, in the light of past events, does
not lay the responsibility of this alarm
ing state of affairs largely at the door
Of the Democratic party? There would
have been no war but Tor the encour-
agement the rebels received from the
Democratic party in the North. That

Kilkenny Cats.

The story has been so long current
that it has become a prOverb-''as quar-
relsome as the Kilkenny cats '-twO OF
the cats in which city are asserted to
have fought so long and SO f%ur.Ously
that naught was found of them but two
tails. The correct version of this say
ing is this: During the rebellion which
occurred in Ireland in 1898, Kilkenny
was garrisoned by a regiment of Hes
sian soldiers, whose custom it was to tie
together, in one of the barrack-rOOms,
two eats by their respective tails, and
then throw them face to face across q
line generally used for drying clothes.
The cats naturally became Infatuated and
scratched each Otherin the abdomen until
death ensued to one or both OF them.
The officers were made acquainted with
the barbarous acts of cruelty, and re-
solved to put an end to them. For
this purpose an officer was or
dered to inspect each barrack-
Don daily and report its state. The
soldiers, determined not to lose the daily
torture o. the cats, generally employed
one of their comrades to watch the APP
proach of their officer. On one occa-
sion he neglected his duty, and the Of
ficer was heard ascending the stairs
while the cats were undergoing their
customary torture. One of the troopers
seized a sword from the arm rack, and
with a single blow divided the tails OF
the cats. The cats escaped through the
open windows of the room, which was
entered instantly afterward by the OFF,
Ger, who inquired what was the cause
of the two bleeding eats tails being sus-
pended on the line, and was told in re-
ply that g two cats had been fighting in
the room; that it was found impossible
to separate them, and they fought sc
desperately that they had devOured
each other up, with the exception OF
their two tails. "-LriSh Nation.

1T might. l don't say it will. Well
You don't wish to shirk it, do yOu?"
"Far from it. l am ready to 60 inn

ness. or graspingness, l assure you. but
because it is a matter of something like
life and death to me. If succeed to

yourself. If very well, it will be i'm
proved very considerably. l can not
say more"
Thank YOU, sir. l felt sure it was SO.
I only wished to hear it from yourself.
And now, 1 am ready any moment"
So he was, perfectly ready. There
are few pleasanter things than to see a
man, young, strong, honest and honor
able. ready to do what he is told, intel
ligently, not servilely, about to enter
upon an expedition of much response
bility, and not without considerable
risk, at a moments notice; not dis
mayed, but not over-cOnfident; self-pOs-
sessed, but modest, and not under the
impression that he was going to do
something surprising everything that
any one else had ever done before.
A conversation took place between
Philip and his chief-nOt long. but con-
centrated-in which Mr.. Starkie ex-
planned his position, and Philip took it
in, receiving also instructions and Gre
dentials. There was an express from
Irkford to London at eight O'clock. 1t
was then nearly five. He had three
hours in which to purchase what was
absolutely necessary for his sudden e.
petition, go home, take leave Of his
sister, "and your friends as Mr..
Starkie remarked, in a general way
write to absent or distant friends, pack
MP his belongings, and be at the station
in time for the London express.
He left the ROOM. a'ter shaking hands
with Mr.. Starkie, with the brief words:
"You may depend on me. sir, to do the
best | have it in me TO do for YOU
THAT is enough" WAS the reply, and
Philip found himself again in the outer
office. which he had left scarce a quar-.
ter of an hour before, at the pages sum.
mons The rest of them were still
seated there, and one or two looked up
rs Philip came in.
s.WelI, Massey, what did he want!
Anything about tonight? Did he ask
you to bring some comic songs?"
A stifled burst of laughter greeted this
suggestion. Comic songs were not Mr..
Massey's strong point. He answered
nothing to their suggestions, but said:
..What bosh!' Goodbye all of you,
I'm off to make acquaintance with the
heather Chinee."
What came in large capitals from
all parts of the room; but Philip had
no time to explain. He shook hand:
with a few friends, and hurried away
with a general goodbye to the others
A hasty visit to a large outfitting
shop, where he explained his needs
and received a promise that what h
wanted should be packed and sent II
meet his train to London, and then. il

Some of Mr.. Berghaus' family were
also going. and it had been arranged
that they should all start at the same
time, and so arrive nearly together at
Mr.. Starkie's place, which was In an
Irkford suburb, five miles away.
Angela's lips had been opened to utter
a few words on the subject OF dress.
Being in half mourning. she said. she
could not venture on anything but
black and white. and being so poor, her
dress must be simple, and must be made
at home.
Miss Fairfax made a great point of
| the s.home made incident. And SO it
was made at home, and chiefly by the
ingenious fingers of Mabelle. IL was
simple, no doubt: but there is costly
simplicity as well as cheap and tawdry
splendor, and as Grace Massey OBJ
served: dozens of yards of black
tulle, and unlimited water-lilies and
leaves in long sprays, of the very best
make, can not be got for absolutely
nothing, you know; % black satin fans
with ivory sticks-but Philip gave her
that; nor long Brussels lace mittens-
but she said those belonged to her
grandmother, and 1 am sure, for any
thing | care, they may have been worn
by Noah's wife, before the Flood"
The great day of the festivities at last
dawned: it is to be hoped that poor Mr..
Grey felt happier on tie occasion than
did some of those who were hidden to
the festivities in honor of his marriage.

GouFtn Ofiqial aaper.
SATURDAY, MARCH 15. 1854.

Good morning. The SENTINEL is still on the turf. With two feet of water on the floors of the office Tuesday morning, and the cases and imposing stones COW cred with debris, the question was asked, with a falling iut1ec- ton, "WelI, there'll be no paper this Week?" Our ansWeris a bow and smile to our patrons, and an entire absence of apology. Our typographical appearance to-day is due to circumstances over which no printer claims to have control, and we do not fear unfa- vOrable comment. We are doing the best we can, and are glad it is no worse. The flood of the past week has been unprecedented.
 The "oldest inhabitant" can tell no story to equal it. In review ing the occurrences of the last few days we can see where much of the destruction could heVe been avoided, but our duty Is not so much now with the past as with the future. We have had the experience and we should draw such conclusions as will make similar recurrence lmpoS- sible. There are two things the people of Yuma should do at once. First, the mouth of the arroyo at the head of Gila street should be provided with d wide fioodgate. which wou'1 act as an outlet for the water s5 the Gi,a in case eff an overflow. and aE7" IS a dam to prevent a1 ovelti3W from the Colorado. The second necessity is a brosd and high levee along the ban -s the is- guna east of town, to prevent Ii possible the overflow of the Gila and backwater from it. It would not cost a great deal of money to put in these improvements, and the result would be highly bene-
 icial. Of course we may not have such high water again In 2O years-and then, too. we are eX- tremely liable to have a similar state of affairs before the middle of June. It will be absolu tely impossible for the Gila to entirely subside before the summer riSt : If the Colorado takes place, and we all know that the indications a:e all favorable for an unusually high river this summer. There Is more snow in the mountains and the ground is in better condition to shed it when it melts, and if il doesn't come booming when Il commences we will miss oul guess. Therefore, it beLoove;
 the people of Yuma to be up and stirring, and see to it that tn: town is not again inundated anC more property destroyed.
