ElitOFtdl COiRHifnt Of the CON1hhlt0n'
A blot rests on Gtorgia's escutchon,
until the men who whipped the negroes
near East Point are caught and dealt
with as severely as the law will allow.
We have never received q more fragrant
or i~nexcusable outrage. That a hall
dozen white men should get their con-
sent to go about a neighborhood, rousing
peaceable and innocent negroes from
their sleep and whipping them, Is
almost incredible. And the burden Of
this crime, the whole people OF Georgia
must bear until the offenders arc brought
10 Justice. The very lowest view to take
Of II Is that such outiages will condemn
to perpetually exile that political party
on which the hopes OF the South depend,
A broader view Is that, while not one
man In 10000 in Georgia would be guilty
Of such conduct, every Georgian's fame
Ia stained by the act OF these free riders.
A better view Is that 1t Is the cowardiCe
Of a stronger and more intelligent race,
beating aud trampling the helpless OF
a weaker race. The ultimate wew-and
the one all fair men must take-that 1t
is a crime against humanity-that hui
man beings, no matter how humble or
how llack-should be torn from their
beds, taken into tho night and dashed
until their backs are bleeding by a law.
less mobl The body Of a peaceable and
we'll behaved negro isjustas sacred from
lawless assault as that Of q white man
and Georgia's honor Is pledged TO make
this appear. The ConSilutiOn has been
criticised for printing the story OF this
outrage. We should lespise ourselves
had We suppressed 1t. To have done so
would have been to become partietpS
criminiS to the men who whirled the
lash or broke over. the thresholds Of
sleeping homes. II Is our duty TO let
