Emo ry Bpeer has in his former races for congress won considerable renuta- tion - He has heretofore managed as to prevent, in a great degree, hit, po litical record from being reviewed be fore the voters of the 9th district, by keeping his opponent continually on the defensive, from the opening of the campaign until the day of the elec tion. But, alas, things have changed, and Mr. Speer is now being made tbe victim of his own adroitly inaugurat ed and shrewdly practiced strategy. Thus being victimized, by reason of his wholly objectionable, undemocrat ic and exceedingly vulnerable recced , he is driven to other strategic methods, and is now most adroitly seeking to rest nia defense up. on only one class of the charges made against him, thereby hoping to draw public attention away from those yin •Mtua which are most damaging to democracy and the true interest othia district, his state and the whole south. Mr. Speer Way he rwes tended and admired for hia shrewdness in this respect. But when he seeks to make his only de fense to the voters of hia district and the trae principles of that party which claim oar’s aa a white man s govern ment, the appointment of a few ne- groes to office, over the application of white Men. he to that extent reflects upon the intelligence, the good sense, the democracy and patriotism of the people of this congressional district.

They were joined by another man, and then the three carried him to the yard, a distance of about thirty yards, where one of the roen whistled, at which signal the par ty was increased to nine men. After choking him, they tied his hands, hur ried him down the road about a quar ter of a mile, and then stripping him naked, tied him to a tree, and whipped him most umercifully with switches. They then untied aud whipped him with the rope with which he bad been tied. After threatening to take hia life if he told about the whipping, they turned him loose. The men were negroes, but had their faces covered with flour as a disguise. Burgess had been accused of maltreating his wife, and he thinks that he was whipped on that account. He also thinks that he can identity some of his assailants. His wife was not present when he was taken from the house, having left some time before the men came.—Lnn- mtlrr Review.
