men should rule or die;" ami that he will

THE IIAN V11.1.K BIOT.
The committee of 40 appointed by the
citizens of Danville, Va., to take testi
mony concerning the riot there on the
3d, and the oonduct of the whites till the
olose of the election, published a call upon
all persons to oome and testify. The
committee oontinued in scasiun from the
12th till the 21st inclusive, and examined
36 witnesses, all that appeared before
them. All of them are thoroughly
reliable. Their testimony shows that the
election of oiost of their party nominees
in May. 1882, and the subsequent ap
pointment of negro policemen, made the
negroes think that as against white men
tho municipal government would protect
them. This made them insolent, arid
generated a continually increasing ill
feeling between the two races. On tho
2.1 William E. Kims, coalition candidate
for tho senate, in a very violc nt speeoh to
more than 500 negroes denounced many
of the pinst respectable townsmen as liars,
eriwards, and scoundrels, liceanse they
bad exposed the evils ot negro rule in
Duville. Next morning both races were
very much ’excited. About midday two
negroes insulted a white man on the
street, and forced a fight, but he left
them. Two hours later he was going out
of town in a buggy. One of ihose same
negroes insulted him repeatedly, lie
onllrd on two friends to sec fair play,
protesting that he would not use any
weapon, Btid fought the negro with his
lists. Many negroes collected, but his
friends kept them hack rill the police
arrived ond took the two combatants in
different directions. In a few minutes a
large crowd of negroes, at least 200,
gathered round these two white men and
some ten other whites, and, declared that
they would have their rights; that they
believed a conflict with the whites was
inevitable, and might as well oome then
as any time. The police repeatedly
ordered the negroes to disperse. The
whites tried to persuade them to do so.
The negroes clos-d in on tho whites, ox
hihiting pistols. Tho police retired be
hind the whites, ami firing began on both
sides. After 40 or 50 shuts the negroes
disp reed. Seven negroes were wounded,
four o< whetu died. Two white men were
wounded, seriously but not mortsliy.
One of them was certainly, tho other
probably, shot by a negro. During the
firing other negroes gathered in with
pistols. A h rgo portion of the white
citizens were assembled in the njora
house in public inoi ting, and only a few
of them reached the street till the firing
was over. In a few minutes a sergeant
of police came forward. Prominent
wliito citizens united their efforts with
his, and pence was maintain! <1 thereafter,
except that that night a policeman wss
wounded hy a shot from behind a negro
houj-o. Circulars were distributed and
posted up, signed by prominent citizens
and "W the oloodon superintendents of
both (firties, assuring the negroes that
they were free to come out and v-tens
they pleased, and should .lot lie molested.
Citizens, policemen, and military officers
sent hy the State government, gave the
sumo assurance. There was no attempt
at intimidation. Some negroes ollme out
and voted the ticket without
molestation, hue most of them, under
advice of tlicir leaders, stayed away Irom
the polls.

determination haunts her eyes, that
