Beat a White Man.

A LIGHT reporter is informed that
there is an almost exclusive cOlored set
Element In Bexar county, in the south
ern edge thereof, that numbers nearly
100 souls, and that these colored people
are disposed to be overbearing and in
sulting to white men. A few OF these
colored men gave terrible beating to q
white man last week, but for what
offense Is not known, and Afterwards
couple Of the same crowd went TO the
house of white man named Edwards
for the purpose Of whipping him, but
timber and knocked them down before
they could get in their work. Such
lawless spirit is without excuse and
will, II persisted in, get these colored
people into very serious trouble.

The Hon. wingfeld Scott, for the Kerr

formal statement as regards the relative
value Of lands and eulogized the people
Of Kerr and Kendall. Some did not talk
like your people do. They had lived so
years without the railroad and could live
the same way 80 more. Others threat
ened to shoot the first engineer that came
that way. San Antonio and those sections
were bound up In trade, and this move
ment Ia for one mutual benefit. The
country was poor. only half developed,
which was one reason why they wanted
the road, but they had raised the money

support anything that would pay. Our

satisfied that outside the corporate limits
the right-of-way could not cost three
thousand dollars. Do not send us back,
he said, to our people to tell them that
pitiful amount Of five thousand dollars
has killed the railroad enterprise. You
can't afford to do 1t. He showed how
the trade Of Blanco, Fredericksburg and
Mason must come to this point for
the very reason that cheap freights and
the most convenient market would draw
1t, and this probably will be the only
road built in that section for years. All
they wanted was San Antonio to do
what they promised at once, or tell them
to their face like men that they would
not do 1t. Then they would know what
to do. He did not believe that San

HON. A, D. BACON.

This distinguished gentleman, who
contested with General Gordon, be-
fore the people, for the Democratic
nomination for Governor, and was
overwhelmingly defeated, had three
and half column letter in Sundays
Macon Telegraph, in which he insist
ed that his name should be voted for
in the State Convention for Cover
nor, as the representative of prin-
ciple. 1t would have been better for
the gentleman to have left the letter
imprinted, for it does his heart dis
credit. Conspicuous throughout its
lines is clearly and keenly depicted
his disappointed ambition to be Gov
ernor. The letter is devoid of all
generosity of feeling, and is full of
bitter sentences and aspersions upon
the motives OF those who opposed
him and of him who defeated him.
He does not seek to allay the bad
feelings that foated to the surface
during the campaign, but he recapit-
ulates charges and accusations and
seeks to keep alive all the bitter ami
mosities engendered The letter puts
Major Bacon in bad light, and it
but fastens the conviction upon our
mind that the people did right in not
electing him to the position he has
so persistently aspired to fiji, for a
man that nurses his hates and preju-
dices so Indignantly, would be inAu-
enced by them in his official acts.
General Gordon spoke in praise OF
Bacon throughout the campaign,
showing generosity of thought that
places him far above his opponent in
all the nobler feelings that make a
true man. The people have chosen
well and we predict Governor Cor
don's administration will be such as
to put to shame those who impugned
his motives and aspersed his charac-

A FEAST OF HUMAN FLESH.

A horrible report from the lower
end OF Tatnall county has just reach
ed the city. A negro woman engag-
ed to prepare a dinner for IA colored
picnic, murdered young child,
which had been left in her charge,
cooked half the remains and served
it to the people. The other halt OF
the remains were found salted down
in barrel. The negroes became
perfectly frienzied on making the dis
covery, seized the woman and burnt
her at the stake. The report appears
to be authentic.
