Outrageous Conduct of the Negroes and
Military in Hancock County.
Several days ago private vices reached
os of outrages committed by negroes in
Hancock county, though not sufficiently in
detail to warrant publication. From the
Sparta limes we extract the following re
port:
It appears that some time ago, a negro,
said to be well behaved and inoffensive,
was, through mistake , shot for another ne
gro of bad character, by some unknown
parties in disguise. The parties accused
by the negroes of the shooting were Messrs.
Robert Dudley and 1. F. Johnson, the only*
evidence-being that one negro testified that
he knew Mr. Johnson, in the dark , by his
gait. On Saturday night, 10th instant, a
party of disguised negroes well armed,
went near the residence of Mr. Dudley,
about six miles from Sparta, and lay in am
bush on the roadside, and a Mr. Logue
passing on horseback, they fired on him
and killed his horse, he making his escape.
They then proceeded to the house of Mr.
Dudley, and not finding him at home, they
pulled up and destroyed about an acre of
cotton, and then burned the gin house.—
After this, they proceeded to Mr. Johnson’s,
and not finding him, they commenced a
general plundering of the premises, killing
a horse, mortally wounding a mule, and
mortally scaring some other quadru
peds. After these valiant exploits, they
retired in good order, to their respec
tive homes. Mr. Johnson, being, of course,
enraged at such a procedure, began to
investigate with reference to discover
ing the perpetrators of this outrage; and,
finding some tracks, he measured them;
whence the report was circulated among
the negroes that he had sworn to shoot
every negro In the county whose feet fitted
those tracks. They being alarmed, report
ed the case to our garrison, who went to
Mr. J.’s residence, a few days since, and ar
rested him. Now mark the injustice of
this procedure: As soon as he was charged
with the murder, he came voluntarily and
ga,vc himself up to the civil authorities for a
fair trial. This he did three successive
times, and the authorities, not considering
the evidence sufficient for a trial, dismissed
him. Now here, a month afterward, he
must be arrested by the military, for no
just cause whatever, guarded with bayonets
and loaded rifles, even chained down like a
criminal. Where is the justice of this
measure? If such a state of affairs be tol
erated, what security will we have for our
property or our lives?

In our village on Monday night, the 12th,
there was a demonstration among the ne
groes qnite unfavorable to the preservation
of law and order. Considerable numbers
of them armed with sticks, rocks, guns and
pistols, were patroling the streets and con
cealing themselves behind trees and fences,
and in gullies. There was fortunately no
disturbance, however, their prime object
seeming to be to guard the house in which
Mr. I. F. Johnson was confined.
One of the negroes who shot Mr. Logue’s
horse has been arrested, examined before
Magistrate J. Clarence Simmons, and com
mitted for trial at the October court. He
refuses to turn State’s, evidence for fear of
being killed by his accomplices.
It is also reported, on good authority,
that while our garrison was lodMng for
Mr. liobt. Dudley they searched*; 11 the
small bureau and table drawers in which a
cat could scarcely squeeze itself. That is
very “ gentlemanly,” to say the least of it;
looking into a lady's private drawers ami
cases. Perhaps they learnt it under the
tuition of Old Ben Butler, Sheridan, or
some other one of this noble fraternity.
[From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Journalism and Office-Seeking Incom
patible.
A disposition to regret the failure of Ho
race Greeley to receive the Republican
nomination for Governor in New York is
manifested by certain persons who cherish
the delusion that the editor of the Tribune
is a philosopher and a statesman. Mr.
Greeley proved that he is not a philosopher
when he signified his willingness to accept
the doubtful honor of certain defeat which
awaits the gent email who was preferred
over him. But had the nomination for
Governor embraced the cu irantee of-elec
tion, lie showed his lack of wisdom, and
therefore his lack of philosophy, in desiring
it. It could not elevate him in public esti
mation, or render him more conspicuous,
or add to his riches, his happiness or his
personal influence, it. could only divide
the power he has already in his party and
encumber him with the dutie of a place
for which he is unfit. The journalist who
wants office mistakes his calling. An edi
tor is himself an official, occupying a very
enviable position ; and his consequence is
to be measured by that of his journal,
great, or small, as it may be. He should
desire preferment only in his profession,
which is a branch of the public service.
But, in order to be a good journalist, he
must eschew caucusses, committees and
conventions; he must hold himself aloof
from cliques ; he must beware of intrigue.
His road lies straight before him. He
need not become a party to personal, local
and party struggles to be advised as to
what is going on ; and the more isolated he
keeps himself, and the more disinterested
he is, the better will he fulfill his mission
as a faithful servant of the people. All the
editors who have gone into politics have
made mistakes, because journalism and of
fice are at odds, and a man must violate
the one or the other if he attempts to join
the two. Mr. Greeley, as the invisible
power that controls the New York Tribune,
is somebody. But Mr. Greeley, as a candi
date for office, is merely a very queer, un
prepossessing and weak old man. It was
well that he was saved the mortification of
being defeated for Governor of New York.
It would have been better had he rejected
the idea aHpgeti^r,
The Pope’s Position.— ls Pius IX
should quit Rome a second time, there is
historical precedent for doing so. During
the greater part of the fourteenth century,
during seven Pontificates (Clement V to
Gregory XI) it was not Rome, but Avig
non, which was the locale of the Holy See,
and again, from 1378 to 1410, duriug the
great western schism, when there were
Popes in Rome and anti-Popes in Avignon.
It is remembered too, that, at the close of
the last century, when the French entered
Rome, the then Pope was not only deposed
as a temporal prince, but forcibly removed,
first to Siena, next to the Certosa of Flor
ence, and then to Grenoble, and finally to
Valence on the Rhone, where he died, and
his successor, Pius VII, was lor some years
a prisoner at Fontainebleau, near Paris.
Not even the saeredness of their office has
exempted several of the Popes from the
misfortunes which sometimes fall heavily
upon princes.— Philadelphia Press.
New York is soon to have another orna
ment in anew and immense hotel, which
will be built on Twenty-seventh street,
stretching from Broadway to Fifth avenue.
It will be built in the Mansard style, so
much in vogue, will cost $700,000, and will
be eight stories high. It will be built of
Nova Scotia stone. Tins hotel will be
divided into suits of living apartments,
each including kitchen, dining room, par
lor and several bed rooms. Access to the
upper floors will he had by an elevator.
At the main door there will be a parlor
where visitors can be received. The edifice
will be a reproduction, with obvious tm
provements, of the Paris system of living
in “flats. Mr. Faran Stevens, well known
it hotel circles, is projector of the new en
terprise. The rent of the different suites
of rooms will pay from $1,500 to $2,500 a
year. So it will be readily seen that the
new “ apartment hotel ” is by no means in
tended for any but those who are nrettv
well off y J

IMPORTANT CERTIFICATES TO BUYERS OF COTTON TIES.
John T. Butler , Esq.: New Orleans, May 18, 1867.
Sir : We, the undersigned, having been engaged for a number of years in the business of
compressing Cotton coming to this market, cheerfully take this opportunity of stating, for the
benefit of Merchants, Planters and the public in general, that in our opinion the Butler Buckle
Cotton Tie should have preference over all other Cotton Ties, as being the strongest, simplest,
ami easiest of application, and know that wo car. compress a bale of Cotton put up with this
l'ie with more facility and expedition than with any other Tie now in use.
The Buckles which are attached to other Ties are weak in their construction, and very in
secure, and we have been compelled in many and at our own expense, to use the
Butler Buckles with which to replace the others.
