rial management of Harry G. Tinsley, has
just celebrated its semi-centennial year and

ableSt papers in the State, fearless i'll its intel
li9ent opinions on all the leading topics of the
day, and one OF our most valued exchanges,
always brimful of spicy news. The Gazette

and wishes it a long lease of life and prosper
future, as in the past the support of the public.

RESISTING TBEPOLIi E.

Another remarkable evidence o1
the preJudiced character Of SONG
jury trials. may be obserSe I'd in the
following:
1t seems that a colored ese was
interfered with in Monroe ark, by
a number of white men, because as
they charged, she whipped ne 1T
tie white child in her charga. The
park officer subsequently endeavor
ed to drag her off from the child to
arrest her, and she insisted upon
carrying her charge home before
going with him.
Madison Beasley, in no u4eertain
tones, told her not to go with him,
using other violent language. The
park officer in the meantime was
not in uniform. For this he fBeaz-
ley) was arrested upon the charge
of resisting the police, and On the
10th inst, given six months in jail,
although having been confined
there five weeks already. Edgar
Allan, Esq, defended him.
Be it remembered that Beazley
did not touch the officer. But in
the meantime two white men resist
ed a police officer, knocking him
down, and cutting his hat as with a
knife. The officer, only by the VIC
lent use of his club, succeeded in re
gaining his feet. Each of the white
men were fined $50. Had they
been colOred men, there is but lit.
tie doubt, but what they would have
been sent to the penitentiary not
only upon the charge of resisting
the police but with intent to kill.
This is the justice as meted ou5 by
Virginia jury. 1t is a blessing
that we have Governor, Democrat
though he be, as generous as he is
in the granting Of pardons. Furtt

While sworn to do otherwise if

them there to keep him from getting

not stop with dealing in false logic
but proceeds to make false state
ments. He says:

out OF resentment of that sign Of subju

men were involved, one of whom was
killed and one wounded. And, strange
TO say, the committing and examining
magistrates in The tIial that grew out
of the case were Negroes, and not
protest was raised ag ainst it by the
press or the people,"
Relative to the Virginia case, he
should have known, that the fight
between the white men occurred
before the Colored magistrate had
issued a warrant. He issued it on.
ly after he had learned of the affray
between the two parties and there
was little or no trouble on account
Of the warrant.
We thank GOD that more liber-

committed by him in South Caro-

If he be carried to South Carolina
they rightly concluded that it would
be the signing ofhis death warrant.

carried to South Carolina when he
