a Question Of Fact About the Car
roiIton Affair.
Nauf GrIaa,o uIoauuna

"A Question Of Fact About the Car
rollton Affair.
New Orleans Pieayune.
The Times-D Democrat, in rather an
indirect way, takes issue with the cor
respondent Of the Picayunec concerning
the Carrollton, Miss, affair on the point
as to who commenced the firing.
Our correspondent stated that the
half-breed, Brown, rose in his seat in
the courtroom and opened fire npon
the prisoner at the bar, and this
brought on the general fusilade, " hich
resulted In the slaughter.
Our contemporary says of this:
The claim that the murderous ARRAY
at CaFrollton, Miss, was precipitated
by the negro Ed. Brown opening FIRE
on Mr.. I'm. Liddell as he sat in The
courthouse between his attorneys, is
effectually disproved by the statement
Of Liddell's brother, who states that
he saw no such firing. He was sitting
near the accused, j. N. Liddell, and op-
posite to where the negroes sat, and
any attempt to shoot his brother would
PROFESSIONALLY have been observed by
him.
In our telegraphic columns will be
found a statement from u torre-
spondent, who visited the scene and
made a special report thereon, in which
he reitelates his assertion. We do not
know Mr.. Liddell, nor have we any
reason to believe that he would will
fully miSrepresent the facts, but at the
same time he may have been mistaken.
At all events We have implicit conf
dence in the judgment and reliability
Of our correspondent, and regard his
testimony as not to be outweighed by
that of any man in the State of Mis-
sissippi, and we venture the prediction
that he will fully substanSiate his YER
sion Of the affair.
The Picayune is not disposed to give
aught but a fair statement Of the I'M
fortunate occurrence, and hence, made
an investigation for itself through a
reliable attache.
Nor are we disposed to devote much
Of our space to lecturing the Governor
Of Mississippi on his duties in the pre-
misses. We have quite enough to look
after closer home, and while the per-
pstrators Of the Amite outrage are still
at large, and our own Governor not
disposed to repair to the scene and in
vestigate and force the local
authorities to action, we cannot have
the face to belabor Gov. Lowry, and
lament over the cause Of law and Or
der in our sister State.
AS for the talk about such affairs
running the South, we have this to say,
that the Picayune will not join the
Northern press in disappearing the
facts, or vie with them in making the
matter appear worse than it really was.
1t is enough that we express our re-
grets that such occurrences should take
place and that we do what we can to
prevent them in our own locality. We
certainly will not, for a moment, admit
that the whole South is to be blamed
for any injustice or wrongdoing that
might have grown out Of the deeds Of
negro and Indian d%esperadoes in a re-
mote corner of a single State, any
more than the whole United States is
to be cursed for the massacre Of a few
dozen Chinese on the Pacific Slope.

Fine Address of Hon. N. w. Davis.
The Ocala Banner says Sickness prevented
the eloquent and favOrite Graves from filling his
engagement here last Wednesday night, much
to the disappointment OF our people. Mr.. Davis,
of Palatka, however, responded to the invitation,
and his speech, in many respects, was the finest
of the campaigns. He did not climb 10 such
great heights "f oratory as dill Gen. Gordon, for
the occasion nor the crowd did not warrant it,
but his facts were all meat and marrow and
were convincing, his anecdotes apropos and were
well told, and his speech, like all logical argu
mems and conservative appeals, produced
splendid impression. One Ol The most disiin-
guished OF our citizens who bad not given his
consent to vote for Mr.. Dougherty, said that Mr..
Davis speech convinced him of his duty. II
had a most felicit0us effect upon the wavering
and will be productive of much good. Robert
w. Davis is one of the coming men" of this
State. He was elected Speaker of the Assembly
by fiattering vote and presided with so much
pariality and satisfactorily, tina, both Demn-
Gratis and Republicans, at the close Of the
siOu. presented him with handsome testimonials
of appreciation and regard. As an orator he has
few equals, and in future campaigns he will have
calls from wherever he is known He is not
only a polished SPY aker. but an impressive and
effective one. Those who failed to hear him
Wednesday night missed the most substantial
least OF The campaign.
