streets all along the line of march to
the steamer was one surging mass OF
humanity-all eager to get peep at
the black boys in blue who were the
first in the city and state to answer
their country's call, but last to be call
ed into service.
The parting was the most pathetic
that we ever witnessed, while sisters,
mothers, sweethearts and children
were deeply weeping at their parting.
Strong men had melted to tears.
just before the parting OF the steam
er carrying the soldiers and while
every space was crowded. with men.
women and children awaiting their de-
parture some miscreant turned on the
hose OF the tug Alice, on the densely
packed people and without a moments
warning completely drenched them. 1t
was only by the coolD ess of some that
a stampede was averted in which many
would have been seriously injured or
killed. The cowardlY act 50 enraged
some of the young people that they be-
gan q fusilade OF missed against the tug,
breaking most of the windows which
no doubt had not the Captain pulled
out something serious would have hap
pened. The entire colored population
is righteously indignant at the con-
temptaOle act and all ready there Is
united effort to bring the guilty par
ty to Justice.
The @. & ORR. officials promised to
lend their assistance. This road has
always had the kindest feeling and
treatment for our people, so much SO
that they felt particularly indebted to
the company, as the company on the
whole, was not party to the crime.
A vvarrant for assault WAS RWOrn ont
against Capt Bowser OF the Tug Alice
by Mrs Mary Oliver whose child was
swept out of her arms by the force Of
the water Warrants will also be sworn
out against the entire crew or the ting.
1t is reported that Mrs. MaryOliver's
child died from the injuries received
by being washed out OF its mothers

ted of the same. The accused was de

Golden.
Monday being court day, it was an
occasion which brought large num-
Der of people to our town. Among
them were many local politicians, dis
cussing matters relative to the fall
campaign.
The authorities here have over
stepped the bounds OF authority by
whipping three colored men and one
colored boy last week under the pre-
tense that it WIS their own selection
rather than go to jail in default of fines
imposed. Those charged with the exc
eution of the law of the land, should
remember that they cannot assume
authority which the people have not
given them by legislative enactment.
The Whipping Post is denounced By
every sane and self-respecting colored
person throughout this state. 1t also
has the denunciation of all unpreiu-
diced and fair-minded white people
Therefore the colored people of Suffolk
cannot remain uncOncerned observers
while the despicable whipping post is
being resusitated by self-conStituted
authority of Nansemond Co. Every.
body knows that the whipping-post
when in existance was designed to
reach the Negro and not the white man.
