The Cerneau scottish Rites.

NEW YoRK, September 27.-The Su-
preme Council OF the Cerneau Scottish
Rite Masons has issued proclamation
in regard to it's troubles with the order,
in which it says it was merely with a de-
sire to enter into friendly reia.ions that
such a proposition was made in April,
1883. to the Grand College of Rites,
which the Council then, and now, under
stands to be purely Scottish Rite body
attached to the Grand Orient of France.
These relations have never been con-
summated, statements Of enemies to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Council
announces its loyalty to all Masonic
bodies, and in proof thereof announces
that the proposal in question is with
drawn. and everything set aside whereby
1t may be claimed that fraternal rela-
tions have been effected between the
Grand Orient of France or any of its
bodies and the Cerneau organization.

THE M1NTER CITY RIOT.

One Cromwell, negro ex-convict,
attempted to form alliances among
the negroes near Shell Mound in the
Delta which resulted in the arming
and massing Of large body Of
negroes. Governor Lowry with three
militia companies proceeded to the
scene and conflict was avoided. A
special to the Times-Democrat of the
Sd instant from Greenwood gives the
conclusion Of the affair.
"From present appearances it
looks as though the sun of peace will
supercede the cloud of war. Capt.
L. L. Bovette, sheriff Of this county,
returned from the seat of war about
4 O'Clock p. m, to-day and reports
everything quiet. -Four of the ring
leaders, named Adolphus Starton,
Scott Morris, M. j. Morris and Jack
Dial, were killed. The militia under
command of Adjutant General
Henry, arrived at Minter City at z
O'Clock a. M, yesterday The ex-
element was augmented by the fact
that a peaceable negro had been
killed during the night for refusing
to take up arms against the white
people.
Upon the arrival OF the troops it
was learned that a party of about
l60 negroes, well armed with win
chester rifles, were encamped near
Cane Lake, distance OF six or eight
miles from Minter City. A party of
citizens numbering about fifty men
vas organized to interview the belig-
Grant blacks. After riding for some
time through dense forest of cane
and vines they arrives at the place
designated as the camp OF the
negroes, but to their surprise they
had moved TO some other place.
Search was at once instituted. Part
Of the men were detailed to 90 in
different directions and make a
thorough search OF the entire sur.
rounding country in order to dis
cover their whereabouts. A party,
while passing through the plantation
Of MIR. G. A. Lownes, came upon
Adolph Horton and Jack Dial, and
they were commanded to surrender.
Without Regarding the command
OF the officers, they drew their pis.
tolls and started to run, when they
were shot. These two are very des-
perate and mischevous, and had been
the principal aiders of Cromwell and
Thomas in arousing the negroes OF
this county. The other leaders were
killed this morning while resisting
arrest. Thomas, Allen and Crom-
well, the moving spirits of the insur-
rectlon, have been arrested, but the
whites and the better class of
negroes are determined to bring
them to justice. Geo. Allen is the
one who killed another negro last
Sunday night on Mr.. Towusend's
place for refusing to join his band,
and it is believed he is still in this
county. Cromwell is an ex-convict,
and one Of the principal instigators
Of the riot. His whereabouts at
present are unknown, but there are
about IS or 100 men searching the
woods for Allen and his accomplices,
of whom there are about eight The
best of feeling prevails between the
whites and the better class of

Synopsis of their very Successful
Gathering in GTeenvills,
this Week.

Greenville Democrat.
The Grand Lodge of the knights
Of Honor Of the State Of Mississippi
convened in Greenville on Tuesday
and Wednesday 9th and 18th inst.
Their coming had been looked for
ward to with much interest, and
strong local committees OF Missis-
sipi Valley Lodge No. 725 had been
appointed to arrange for the recep-
ton and entertainment. The warmth
of the season rendered it impossible
to devise anything but brief indoor
reception and an ice cream fete,
besides the ordinary routine business
OF the Knights which Of course not a
public matter. 1t is hardly neces-
sary for the DEMOCRAT to expatiate
upon the merits Of this admirable
order. Founded in June 1878, it
has for sixteen years carried on its
benefcent work work throughout the
United States. A secret Benevolent
Society, it is still more a phiIan-
throphic and humanitarian institu-
ton, its main feature being an insur-
ance fund at low rates, which has
proved blessing and providential
succor to many an otherwise helpless
home. In April this year the order
had 127 ISL members and since its
inception it has paid out no less than
"a millions Of dollars to its beneflci-
aries. 1t is indeed an honor for
Greenville to receive within its limits
the highest representatives Of so
grand an Order, and for influencing
their presence here this week, the
local lodge have deserved well Of the
whole community.
Judge Trigg next presented
HON. H. s. NAN EATON,
of Woodville, who responded to the
address of welcome on behalf of the
Grsnd Lodge. No man in Missis-
sipi is more popular with Greenville
audiences. After paying pleasant
compliment to the last speaker who
had so fittingly voiced the sentiments
of the people of the Queen Of the
Delta, the gentleman from Woodville

ton of the magnificent audience OF
fair women as we'll as Of the other
sex.

to his seat.
