OPEN ADDRESS.
COlOred Citizens of Louisiana
Appeal For Redress.

The following is the conclusion of
the Address to the people Of the
United States recently issued from
New Orleans in the name Of the col
ored people of Louisiana;-
The latest wholesale murder. rival
ing the most horrifying brutalities
of the Comanehes, took place only a
few nights ago. near Cade station, in
the parish Of Iberia, in the Negro
village Of Freetown. This place is
owned exclusively by colored people
who were conceded to be industrious
and respectable. They were charged
with hiding and protecting in their
midst some Negroes from other parts
of the parish whom the regu lator
wanted to whip. When this news
was spread abroad a sheriff. farud-
u'ently installed, with his men, with
out any warrant or sha dow of law, at
the hour of midnight invaded the
quiet village, attacked a house
wherein a number Of Negroes expec-
ting the assault had gathered for
sell, defence, and deliberately slaugh-
tered the inmates. No arrests will
follow The civil authorities are in
sympathy with, and applaud the
crime.
The Governor has shown no dispo>
sition to afford our people any pro-
lection. because of this and other
kindred wrongs, and our sad expe-
rience leads us TO expect no redress
from that source.
The papers daily record.iynchings,
whippings, and murders ofpeople on
various pretences, such as are not
considered sufficient cause for lynch
law for whites under the like circum-
stances, and tidnings pour in upon
us like food of brutalities the re-
cord Of which is suppressed from the
public print because of the supposed
political effect they would have up
on the Presidential and Congaession-
al campaigns in Northern States.
We have exhausted all means in
our power to have our wrongs re
dressed by those whose sworn duty
it is to impartially execute the laws,
but all in vain. until now, because
Of our murdered fellow citizens and
apprehensivs for our own safety, ap-

Ease with an iron base, which had corroded

The supposition is that the suow was forced
