QUITMAN' BANNER. QUITMAN: THURSDAY, ApRIL 24, 1873 — , TU* Col«i«i»t» Countr Kn-Kliix. The of the United States (Jitcuil Court, Mil session at Savannah, last week lonnd trno hill* against Jphn Register, Wrn. Ricks and Win. Horne, Mith on the chargrf of whipping a certain Mr. and tor "conspiring against the constitutional franchise” of Mr. Ifardrick. On Fridhy the parties were nrraigned, and hy advise of their attorney,, filed a p|< aof guilty in the Hardrick indict merit,|aud the District Attorney entered a nohe proMmyui iu the other. Whereup oti Judge Krskine sentenced the three to terms of imprisonment in Chatham conn ty jail of five months, and to fines of one thousand dollars each. • All three of the gentlemen are farmers of moderate means, and totally enable to pay the fine assessed—conseqnentfy they will bo relieved of the payment of the same. At Urn expiration of their term of Imprisonment, all that will be necessary will be for them to appear bo fore a Commissioner and make affidavit to their inability to pay tho amount. Ae regards the jurisdiction of the Court that took cognizance oT these cases, we agree we agree with the Morning News, that the United States Court exceeded* its nuthorily. The oflenso was peculiar ly within the province of the State Courts, and was devoid of any national or politi cal significance, and the authorities of Georgia aro amply able to protect our citizens and punish all offenders. Whilst not condoning in tho least the orime of these parties in assnming to thus correct in a snmmnry manner an evil which should and could have bpen abated by a proper appeal to the law, we cannot but view tho action of the Government in taking the matter out of the control of the .Stale Courts as an unpardonable stretch of authority, for which, however, there seems to bo no redress. With equal propriety could tho numerous as sault and battery cases which aro almost daily brought boforo our magisterial courts bo included under this model act known as the enforcement bill. A War of Knees in Louisiana. Gen. Grant's "peaco policy” towards Louisiana, has at Inst culminated in strife and wholesale slaughter. In de fiance of popular sentiment and the ex pressed wish of tho intelligent masses, the Washington government decreed that the mongrel Kellogg-l’incliback faction should be respected ns the legal government of the State. To this great outrage the respectable white portion of tho population quietly submitted, but entered a solemn protest, which was bar reu of good results. Tho countenance thus given to the Kellogg faction, em boldened its adherents to further outra ges; and a reckless and desperate Radi cal negro, named Ward (a member of the Legislators), organized a blnck mob and took forcible possession of the town of Colfax—drjving tho Sheriff and other officers out of the parish. The mob consisted of several "hundred brutal, ig norant negroes, and upon securing qnict possession of tbo town, they searched and plundered houses, insulted women, invaded the graves of the dead, aud fin ally drove tho white women nnd children from tho place, and 'threw up fortifica tions for defeuoe. Thus outraged, the whites of the surrounding country ora g a nixed for self defence, and on Sunday, the 13th inet., a determined body of men, led bv the Sheriff, advanced •n Colfax. On their arrival in tho sub urbs, a flag of truce was sent to the blacks, asking their surrender, and in case of refusal warned them of probable results. Tbo negroes refused all terms, whereupon Jhe whites charged the bieastworks and the valiant defouders retreated, taxing refuge in (he Court House, fr.in which they kept tip an in cessant fire for two hours. Finally, a friendly negro was bribed to fire tire court house, which was successfully done. After a vain attempt to extinguish tho flames, the blacks displayed a white flag in token of surrender. Two white men immediately advanced, but on reaching the doors of the court house, they were shot down. Tho negroes then rushed out in a body, and the whites, being ter ribly infuriated, fired into tbo mass as they came out, killing them wherever found. Sixty negroes were killed and wound ed, while the whites lost only one killed and two wounded. The negroes had im provised several rude cannon from old cast iron pomps, which were loaded with slugs and discharged. A white man named .Calhoun, and the negro Ward, referred to above, were the instigators of the ontrage, both of whom escaped from the town before the fight. Now, who is responsible for this terrible oat rage? Unquestionably the Washington goveroment, which persists in requiring the white citizens of Louisiana to occupy a subordinate position to alien enemies and an inferior race. The Modoc War. The murder of Gen. Canby by the Modoc Indians, and the great excite ment created in consequence, naturally influences the belief, that it is a formid able tribe, aid that protracted warfare will envoi . This is an entire mistake: the government lias magnified a mole hill IntoH nidblitftln, and has a purpose in creating a sensation. The fact is, that formidable warlike tribe, nnmbcre only si sty seeen persons all told, includ ing men, women and children. The government has acted in bad faith with the tribe—it could not secure its rights by peaceful means—aud, driven to desperation, it has resolved to sacri fice its existence rather than longer sob mit to injustice. In reference to the locality iu which the Modocs are intrenched, Prof. Hay don says that the lava beds of Oregon arc an outfiox of volcanic matter, form ing a fierlect sea of melted rock, which, in gtednally cooling, became broken. Innumerable little streams have worked their way through, and the whole place is filled with caycrns. They oftentimes connect with one another, and extend lor miles under tbo ground. They vary in width from fifty to five or six hun dred feet. The entrances to them Bra very small, aud therefor# oon easily be defended. The lava beds comprise from fifty to one hundred square miles.” The Indiana aie perfectly familiar with the lara beds, and can bid defiance to the soldiers for mrnths, especially,#s the “Modocs" are similar to the "Digger” Indians, anff live upon rabbits, lizards, snakes, mice, and all kinds of h u ß* an *l insects, which arc foond in the numer ous caves. Tho Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Hun writes, that calculations have been made by person* oonversant with the expense of Indian warfare, and the conclusion arrived at, <o exterminate the tribe, it will cost $75,000 per head— which will net the snug little sum of $5, 065,000. Lab r intelligence from tho seat of war was received at Washington on the 19th. After two days fighting, says a Jispatcli, "the Modocs fled to the hills Southwest oftho lava beds. They took but one scalp. The soldiers took four prisoners, including Scar Faced Charley. '1 he Warm Spring Indians fought well, steal ing upon the Modocs, and ever ready to take nod hold any advantage. The to tal Federal loss is ten wounded und five killed. Eight Indians are known tb be killed. Tho Modocs arc traveling to wards tho W illow Springs, whore they expect assistance from the tribe of that name. The cavalry, with their Indian allies, aro in pursuit. It is feared the Modocs will divide up in small bauds and greatly damage settlers." The Colfax Tragedy. Tho terrible figr, I* at Culfax, Grant Farieh, La., is a perfect God send to the Radical liars, who are paid liberally (or defaming tho Southern people—nnd thereby furnishing a pretext for Federal outrages. A dispatch from New Or leans jn the 18th, is as follows : Late news from the scene of hostili tics at Grant Pariah, shows that the mnsAcre of negroes at Colfax Court House was even more horrible nnd com plete than at first reported. It appears that not a single colored man was killed until all of them had surrendered to the whites, when one hundred negroes were shot down in cold blood. After the butchery the whites scattered in every direction. Many of them left tor the Texas border." The facts in tho case, ns recounted elsewhere, are, that the whites desired to avoid bloodshed, they suggested a surrender before a shot was fired by them; and after the Court House was fir ed, aud a white flag exhibited, the black fiends fired upon the white messengers of mercy. If our people had failed to slaughter tho brutes after such treat ment, they would have been less tbau men. The editor of the Quitman Rakeer has never been to Blakely, as is evident from the fact that he says Quitman can boast of the prettiest ladies and the prettiest town that God’s son ever shown upon. Come ,ovcr to Blakely, bn tber Fildcs, and learn how badly you are misiakeo. —Early County Neua. Impossible, brother Flemming; we cannot Jbo mistaken. You, no doubt, have a very pretty, progressive little town, and beautitul, intelligent ladioa, hut words are Inadequate to do justice to Quitman and her jewels. We arc nl most afraid to invite our ootoniporary to visit this tlysium—as it is possible that tho readers of his efcellent journal would have reason to censure us lor depriving them of a model editor, and Blakely of a good and clever citizen. He woold im mediately shout " Eureka,” and here he would anchor. • A Negro Cadet. —The Macon Telegraph says that Freeman, tho Radical repre sentative in Congress from the Atlanta district, has appointed Henry Ossiau Flipper—Phoebus ! What a name—an Atlanta negro, to a ’cadetship at West Point. Flipper was the only applicant for the position —perhaps because Free man didn’t let any white folks know that there was a vacancy. Editorial Brevities. Harris, the talented and clever editor of the Morning Ne tea, has a peculiar style of designating a negro. Tie says : “A female of the coloied way of curling her hair,recently gave birth to three chil dren” in Marietta. Georgia is to be officially represented at the great Vienna Exposition. Gover nor Smith has appointed a Mr. Slaymak er as her .representative. The Blsckalieai Georgian has recently been considerably improved in typo graphical appearance, and Col. S. W . Baker is now its editor. The Colonel is a fine writer, sud knows what to keep out of a,psper. The Macon agency for the sale of the new Geoigia eight per cent, bonds, has of SIOO,OOO worth. A planter in Lauren;) couuty took $30,000. We also learn that the Trustees of Mr. Nut ting’s Macon Bank have authorised the >n vestment of $50,000 in said bonds. The body of Jim Cleveland, colored, who was murdered on tbs 28th o#Marcb by bis wife and a negro man, was found a few days ago m o swamp. Atlanta bag had a terrible poisoning case. Dr. Craig, Judge Puliatn aud Mr. Joyps, a chemist, repaired to tbs cellar of a drug store to take a drink of key. By mistake the liqoor was flavored with aconite instead of orange water. Dr. Craig died in a tew hour*, Judge Puliam narrowly escaped death, aud Mr Jones was made very sick. Aconite is a deadly poison. Judge Hopkins, in Fulton Superior Conrt, declaros the provisions of the act of 1870, requiring an affidavit ot the payment of taxes on notes, was unconsti tutional and void. This decision is in consonance with that recently mado by the U. S Superior Court. The Temperance Lodge at Ouslcy is accomplishing great good. Almost eve ry lady and gentleman in the vicinity tiave taken the pledge of total abstinence, and tho only bur room «*» the pluco lias been closed. VVc gave an account some five or six weeks ago, says the Atlanta Sun, of an attack on a party oLUnited States Mar shals, in Forsyth county, hy a body of citizens, In which one or two wore killed and several . wounded. Among the wounded was Marshal Blacker, iu com mand ol the squad. Two ol tho attack ing party, Harrison Barker and Ira Han sard, escaped, and was captured a few days ago in Kansas CWty, Mo. In tho event of the extension’ of the Railroad beyond Bainbridge to Pollard, it is believed that tho workshops of the Company will he transferred to Thumos ville. Consequently certain property it* that progressive city is now held at in haled prices. Mr. Robert West, of Polk oouaty, was run over by a wagon team recently, and killed. Vice President Wilson has discovered that the "salary steal” is very unpopu lar, and has in consequence returned his share, $t,400, to the Treasury. Pablic opinion sometimes exercises a wonderful effect. A dispatch from San Francisco says that a Chinese smsll pex patient escaped (rom a pest house, and ran, nuked, iuto a street car filled with Ihdies. There were several weak-minded male fools in the car who fled at tbeappearuoce of the i crazy Chinese. Ou last Saturday evening a white man, named Boswick, was killed by VV. V. Goodwin, near Station 1J on ttie A. &G. Railroad. Goodwin surrendered him self to the Sheriff in Savannah, and claims that his conduct was in self-de fense. At 12 o’c'ock on Saturday night, a seaman, in Savannah, bad his skull frac tured by a negro, aud it is probable the man will die. Tho negro made his es cape. Judge E. J. Harden, of Savannah, and for many years the recipient of high official positions st the hands of the peo ple, died at Indian Springs, where he had gone for his health, on Saturday last. The deceased was a relative of our es teemed County Judge, Edward R. Har den . There are eleven cases of small pox, all negroes, in the Angusta pest house. The disease is reported spreading among that race. The body of W. E. Reese, of Warren county, was recently discovered iu a dense canebrake. The head was torn from the hi dy by dogs, and the remains terribly mutillated. The deceased was of unsound mind, snd it is supposed committed suicide. Mr. R. M. Johnson will hereafter as sist in the editorial conduct of the Bain bridge Democrat. He is a ready writer and good editor. A train of cars fell through a bridge on the Stonington, Conn., snd Boston railroad on Saturday. Six cars were burned, and ninety five persons killed There is a happy nigger in Raleigh, N. C. Whilst tearmg down a building a sow days ago, he found a package of money rolled up in paper, containing some twenty thousand dollars iu old State bonds, some Confederate bonds, and some five hundred dollars in gold and silver, aud two watches. Tlie ftetpauiibUitT* The New York Herald baa the follow ing sensible and correct comment in re gard to where the responsibility reals (or the Louisiana massacre. It saye : Now, the question arises, “Where lies the responsibility for this bloody and disgraceful affair?’’ The responsibility attaches first to the national adminis tration i r lMiXt it falls npnn Congress, ami next upon Governor Kellogg. The mis taken policy of General Grant In bebatf of peace in Louisiana has been product ivo only of mischief, confusion sbd dis order. It is hut justice to him, howev er, to say that he appealed to Congress at the late session for a settlement of this embroglio, and that Congress, lack ing the moral courage to settle it, left the whole subject to the discretion of the Presidfent, as the two houses left t! e Moi mon difficulty, and that the Presi dent, ailltering to tbe Kellogg Govern ment, as he had notified Congress he should do, if left to his own discretion, has aiade it de facto the State government. We cora«iWhen, to Gov ernor Kellogg. He advised a comprom ise pf this Colfax difficulty; hut it was his duty to inform himself of the exact Situation of affairs there, and to arrest Ward and his negro followers before rr immediately after their advance npon the town. For failing in this duty he should be called to acconot. He is evi dently unequal to his positio i As for the slaughter of the negroes, it is a pun ishment which they stupidly brought upon themselves. We hope the lesson, throughout the South, will do them good, in teaching them tbe folly of appealing to arms for the redress offanciod wrongs or the vindication of imaginary political rights. They ought to know that a war of races means the extermination of the black race, and that in el*ry appeal to arms they are sure to he severely pun ished President Grant, meantime, ahould bring Kellogg to a strict account for big apparently criminal negligence in this business. The District Conference. | Rcv.S. 8. Sweet informs os that the | Conference of the Tliomasvillc District | of the South Georgia Conference, which | met in Blackshear on the 10th iriat., was | largely attended, and that the meeting I was a very interesting and harmonioua j one. Bishop George F. Pierce presided, ' and tbe reports from the various atinrch i es was qn to encouraging. I During the meeting of the Conference quite a revival of religion was created Jat Blackshear. A number had joined tire church; and on last Sunday night | fifty persons were at the altar. The meeting was continued during the pres ent week, and great good no doubt will be accomplished. Robbisg Tnr. Mails. —For mouths past, the popular and reliublo publishers, ' Messrs. Hunter & Cos , of Hinsdale, N. 11, have been annoyed and dismayed at the immense losses of valuable letters which wore dai'y occurring. Aided by tbe chief Detective and two special P. 0. Agents, they have at last the satisfac tion of seeing the thief—a night clerk in the Boston P. o.—“behind the bars." and I he had confessed all. Messrs. H. & I Co.’s losses have been enormous; in fact, |no exact estimate can at present be ! made. The thief carefully examined, aided by a light, every letter, and took every one that contained mojn-y. He was caught in the act and arrested, aud, if lie gets his dues, will board with the State for from five to ten years. Mean lime the prosperous business of Hunter & Cos. goes on with its usuai energy, promptness and care, and those who have lost money by mail will now see just where it went, and avoid giving the blame to honest persons. - - "The Mc.-icai.

General (Irook accepted their surrendei by their chiefs, whs promised to seod word to outside parties to “eorne in. ’ Crook gave passes to their runners for spreading tine news «t peace. A correspondent of the Savannah Ninos, in attendance on the Blackshear Confer ence, says that one brother, in represen ting bißiwork, said, at a rongb guess he thought there had been about thirty gal lons of tears shed on his circuit this year; yet be came to the sensible conclu sion that all this was not religion.
