JOURNAL AND MESSENGER.
MACON, FRIDAY, MAY 11.
Governor Pcrry’a Letter.
From tlio Charleston NcwilJ
Kit-Governor Ferry wrote si letter to tbe
Editor of the New York Tribune, dated ,
April 15, and which is published in the |
issue of that journal of May X. Tbe letter, j
ijtilte a lengthy document, treat* of *in h
topics as we have been frequently regaled 1
with in the testimony ot {Southern mm j
before the Reconstruction Commit!** In
Washington. As the Governor »#* not
undergoing the thumb-screwing oroewwat
Lite time, he was able totnke a wider ranee,
..lid f. ll die men of the North fully and
circumstantially what the condition of the
South is at present: discu.«*c* the «|tiest foil- 1
of suffrage and representation, and after
showing up some of the leading falacieain
vogue among Northern logicians, he ny«: j
“llow unreasonable it lain you Northern |
meu to suppose that we have less sincere j
regard for the negro than you have. It is |
against nature, and contrary to all reason
anil experience. The negroes have h**n
onr slaves and property, the objects of «»nr i
care and attention. T hey are known to
us, and have lived with us for t . irs |«st.
They have (lescendetl to us fmm*mranevs
tors, and were the object*of theii care nn«l
soliefttufn. Fn many instance*, they and
their progenitors have been in our iamilie*
for inor.* limit a cclitury. Then* afrothi’r
who have grown up with ns as coiuranion*,
faithfully serving us throngh life. Is if j
not most likely that we should, under
th(*s» elrpuinstanoc*, feel * deeper inten-t '
in their welfare than strangers? The
.Southern people are not less humane, or |
less affectionate, or less influenced by sen
timents of honor, than the Northern peo
ple are. They are as generous and as kind
to ] Hintons in distress. I think their histo
ry and character as a people show this. — |
Why, then, need you tr able yourselves**. J
much al Hint the protection of the negro?**
He next goes oil to show what rmanei- I
patioii has already done for the negro race I
in the South; in this confirming the test!- j
mony lately given by Judge Sharkey, of
Mississippi, before tlie Central Directory
at Washington,—that the next Unit* I
States Census would show a decrease of 2*
per cent, in the colored population; tin* |
four millions of IHU», would be found to I** ,
scarcely three millions in l'*7o.
The influence exerted by the freedmen’s ,
bureau, encouraging the negro in idleness
and vice, is the next point made by Sena '
tor I'erry. He then advert* to the alleged
philanthropy, upon which all this guardi
anship of "the nation’s wards” is bostd:
and he uses the following (trgumcntnm art
hotninem: ,
"If you really and sincerely wish to |
protect and benefit the negro, why do yon |
not take him North and provide for him * ]
The Southern people would lie very glad
to have a large portion of them aenlto yoa.
especially those who will rot labor, and
whom you are now protecting in idleness
at the expense of the Southern people.—
Having them at home with you, anu im
mediately under your own supervision,
you may be able to In-nelit them. But it
"is impossible to do so when they area
thousand miles from you. W hile they re
main in the Southern States, they will
have to look ultimately to the Southern
people for protection.”
And again he asks :
"Why is it that yon love the negro -<•
well and bate the white race so much ?
They have erred and gone astray, it is
true; but they are now penitent, and are
seeking mercy at your hands. Ti *ir pun
ishment and" suliering, it would seem,
were enough to satisfy the most malignant
revenge, end ought certainly to appeal to
a philanthropist like yourself. You should
remember that there are tho i-ands of
Union men in the Southern Slate* guilt
less of their country’* wrong, w ho «re suf
fering equally with those who brought on
the rebellion.”
AVe close our extracts here,an 1 can only
wonder at Mr. Terry’s puticuce in volun
tarily undergoing the labor involved in
tiiis act of supererogation. For surely be
did not ex]H*et to convince any of the I ri
bune’s readers of the error of their ways.
The radical leaders, both in Congress and
newspaperdom, claim nothing short of in
fallibility. To call any of their measure*.
in question is treason. To doubt is to Is*
damned. Why should any Southern man
waste bis breath in an attempt at rcusori
ing with the people so blindly and fanati
cally prejudiced ? Every word Mr. Terry
says is truth, but it will produce no effect
with the parties to whom it is addressed.
Trouble with this Nkohoes lx Ken
tucky.—The l’aduoah (Ky.) Herald, gives
the following account of a negro affray
which recently took place in that neigh
borhood :
A dilflculty occurred last Friday eve
ning, on the* farm of James Key, uisHit
six miles below Florence, in which time
negroes were killed Tlie circumstance.**,
as related to us by a gentleman who heard
them given in the immediate vicinity, are
these : Key had In bis employment als.ut
150 negroes, a large number of them dis
charged soldiers. They were rolling some
barrels of meal into the yard, mlicii Key
told them not to handle the bariels so
roughly. „ ,
Upon this one of the negroes replied:
You had better go back to the house un<l
stay there, you <i <1 greyheaded old ras
cal", anti immediately attacked Key. He
threw him down timi took a pistol away
from him. Two other negrww tlien came
up and took the pistol away from him and
handed it back to Key. The negro made
a second attack, whereupon Key shot him
down and retreated to the house and Imr
ricaded the door. In a lew moments tlie j
house was surrounded l>y al<out seventy- ]
live negroes, all nrhied. '1 hey battered ;
down the door, and as they entereil be
! killed two of them with a double-barreled I
I gun. The negroes retreated. They at- ;
i tempted to lire the house, hut tlie majority
opposed it, and it was abandoned.
In tha meantime news of the nTair got
to Florence, and a squad of men went
down to the scene of action, summoned
every one of tlie negroes to appear at court
as w-it-tte--.se* nguinvt Key: arrested him
and put him in jail, 'rids waa done to pro
tect him from the infuriated negroes. He
will, of course stand his trial. The citi
zens throughout that country are consid
erable alarmed, fearing a general rising of
the negro population. We know the above
: statement can he relied on, as we received
it from a reliable gentleman.
