The colored people of the South who
are Hocking to Arkansas are having some
trouble out there, if the reports from
that State are true. 1t is said that the
Arkansas mountaineers do not like the
idea Of their State being turned into an
asylum for negro immigrants. They
threaten violence. The condition Of
affairs in. several counties is 80 bad that
the Governor of the State has been called
upon to preserve the peace. A band Of
mountain boomers have ordered the
negro tenants in Conway and Pope Coun.
ties to leave the State. The sensible
colored people of South Carolina should
hesitate a long time before leaving a
State where they are protected in life
and property, for State in which they
are treated an intruders and ordered to
leave such counties as the native white
men do not want them TO settle in. The
people of Arkansas are evidently willing
to let the negro settle in the swamp lands
where white man canuot live and where
most of the negroes .oon die, but they
do not appear to be willing for the negro
to settle in the heslthy portions of the
State. Aud yet there are hundreds Of
negroes all over the South leaving good
homes to 20 out there.

The Prohibition Petitions.

Mr.. EDITOR: We do not desire to
proloog the discussion on prohibition,
but deem it due TO the advocates of the
movement to correct fsw statements
made by Mr.. Clinkscales in his article
of last week. He says:
i "Let me state more iully, We did not
believe that the petition signed by one
thousand ei,izeus (If that be the number)
from the rank and file of our people did
it. give such an expression As would
authorize your Representative to favor
the Bill and more especially when it war
known to "Mr. Clinkscales" for eome
weeks before the meeting of the
Legislature, printed petitions had
been struck by the scores, put
into the hands of the friends of the
mea.ure, each township carefully can
vss.ed, left in the Stores of the leading
merchants Of the county and offered ut
many, if not all of the churches in the
county and such other steps taken that
advertised every man woman aud child
in the county and offered to them an
opportunity to sign the same had they
wished to have done SO aud only one
thousand (if that be the number out OF
about i.irty five thousand signed the
petition Such an expression of opinion
would not warrant Representative man
to favor the Bill.
In reply to the statements made above
We have to say, that some time in Sep
tember last the Ladies of the Womens'
Christian Temperance Union" had one
hundred petitions printed, and placed in
our hands for distribution. About txen.
ty of this number Was sent out iu the
County, and eight or ten placed in the
hands of merchants Of our city. To
our. certain knowledge there was four or
Eve townships where there uas no peti.
tious circulated; so the assertion that
"each township was carefully vassed,"
falls to the ground. There is in our
County over fifty ch es, and re chal-
lenge Mr.. G. to 6ne alf that number
where the petitions were presented. We
venture the assertion that al least over
half of the people never saw them at all.
We did not think it necessary to ad'
vertise it to every man, woman and ch'id,
az We were led to believe that petition
signed BY one third of the voting pcpu-
lation would induce our Representatives
to use their influence in securing for us
the right to test the matter ofprobibition
10 our County. But it seems that We
were misled in this instance, as Mr. c.
admits that he was not willing to act on
this petition of one thousand names.
Mr.. G. is mistaken again, when he
asserts that the City election was held
ON the 9th of December, and that the
failure to elect tie dry ticket buried up
the petitions. The election was held on
the 4th of December, aud the result had
nothing at all to do with the County
movement, rs these petitions we're cir
custed before it was decided to make the
issue 10 the City. By reference to his
file of the INTELLIeEScER, (if be takes
it,) bfr. G. will fnd that calls were made
fur these petitions up to the ist of De-
cembsr. It Was about the seventh or
