Riot IN Jefferson Parish.

The parish Of Jefferson was the
scene OF another race riot on the
2nd inst. 1t will he remembered
that the races had considerable
trouble down there a few months
ago. and this last trouble is the
out growth Of the first, 1t appears
that an excursion train passed
along through Gretna and Gouls-
borough loaded with negroes, and
on account of the threats ami de-
monstrations Of the excursionists
they were fred upon by the whites.
The negroes returned the fire and
the result was two women and TIVE
men were shot. A general volIey
followed in which several persons
both white and colorc,l received
sight injuries. This MAS q very
unfortunate affair and will furnish
more food for the tou! mouth
incendiary papers of the North.
The truth is though that those
people in Jefferson parish have
been imposed on so long by the
negroes, who are largely in the
majority, until they have conclud'
ed to forbear no longer. There is
no doubt but the whites have acted
rasIriy and perhaps unwise, but II
we were placed with their Sur.

RACE WAR.

Greenwood, Miss, Sept. "A
large number efnegroes, variously
estimated, have assembled in q
field near sunnysidc, fifteen miles
above here, masked and armed,
and threaten TO kill, burn and
destroy. Persuasion has no effect
upon them, and the sheriff tele'
graphed for troops to prevent an
outbreak. Gov. Lowry is on the
scene in person with several
companies of militia, which are
deemed sufficient to induce the
negroes, who are generally armed
with Winchesters, to disperse.
The difficulty originated with
one Oliver Cromwell, q notorious
negro ex convict, desperate and
general bad case, who has been
organizing negro alliances in this
section. A number Of negroes
becoming aware Of their leaders,
dubious character, wished to dis
place him, but majority OF the
alliance sustained him. In eonse'
quence he was threatened by the
malcontents, and was sent or sent
to himself q threatening letter.
He then collected and armed his
followers as above stated. and,
affecting to believe, that the
opposition to him was instigatsd
by the white merchants, because
lie induced the negroes to buy at
the cooperative store, q letter was
sent to them, threatening murder
arson and general destruction.
The sheriff and several good
citizens tried to reason with tho
misguided follows Of the rascal
hut to no avail. Last night
seventy.fve armed negroes came
into Shell Mound, about ten miles
above here, ard were very insolen1
