A TELEGRAM from Bloomington, Illinois,
says the negroes in all that section of the
State are greatly alarmed by the threaten.
ing behavior of the white people, and that
their children have been insuIted, beaten
aud driven from the public schools. The
negroes have been slow to learn the lessons
of twenty years. experience, but if Provi-
deace ever shall grant them understanding
they will know that their best and safest
abiding place in this country is the South,
the white people of which are familiar with
their frailties and delinquencies, and make
allowance for them, the sense and justice of
which no Northern man can perceive.

The Socialists,

CHICAGO. Feb. Interviews have been
held here with leading socialists, in regard
to the alleged danger Of an outbreak IN
Pttsburg. August Spies, one of the extre-
misls leaders, said hs knew the Pittsbnrg
socialists were arming rapidly, but that 1T
was foolish to suppose that they would at
tempt any open opposition TO the public au-
thorliss. Dynamite was the weapon they
would use till the people were ready ojoin
them. This time might not be far away, as
there We're thirty thousand unemployed
men in and around Pittsburg.. They would
not starvo without doing something. He
said the Irish fenians had blown up build
inss naedlessly 1t would perhaps be well
to blow mp Parliament buildings when Par.
Lament was in session, or operate against
Individuals such as Gladstone or Parnell.
He thought ii would I've we'll to remove Par
neil. He sympalhizcd with the Irish dyna
lnters. The report Of an uprising in Pitts
burg, however, was all IL lie. Herr Most
he said, had not been in Pttsburg recently.
Joseph Gruenhul, one of the moderate soci-
alsis, said he did not believe there was any
danger Of an uprising. If anything were
done it would be with dynamite, by The ex-
tremsts, who were few in number compar-
o with the socialists, ana it was impossible
toprelict where and when these anarchists
would give evidence Of their presence.

depot nearer to King street, were influence
ed by the idea that the depot of the A. &
w. r. +. will soon be moved back to its
old site near that street, and that therefore
two railroad depots would be either on or
close to the main street of the city, they can
reconsider their action and change it with

in that case say the shortest time in which

A NEW TRIAL FOR DIR. PITTs.-In the

Henley reversed the decision of the County
Court, set aside the verdict of the jury, and
granted new trial for DR.. James Dennis
Pitts, convicted Of murder in the second de-
gree, and sentenced to IS years in the peni-
Tertiary for killing DR.. Thomas L. Walter
on Tangier Island, Va, May II, 1884. The
crime of which DR.. Pitts was convicted oc-
Cured within the limits of Accomac coun-
ty, but the case was removed to Hampton.
Drs. Pitts and Walter were rival physicians
on Tangier Island, and the motive for the
crime was said to be professional jealousy.
The plea in justification was self defence.
