The Aldine.
ltumors having been circulated of
the financial embarrassment of the Al
dine, the publishers say to the public
that the Aldine —the Art Journal of
America—is not in any embarrassment
whatever.
Asa commercial undertaking, it has
been irotn the start a remarkable suc
cess, and is, to-d ty, more prosperous
than it has ever been before.
Tuo Aldine is the property of The
Aldino Company, the organization of
which, last month, brought to the en
terprise an additional paid-up capital of
8200,000.
The stock is in the hands of a num
ber of the wealthiest men of this city,
tind the Company does not owe a dollar
outside of its capital stock and the or
dinary not duo current accounts of the
month.
The brain which originated still con
trols and directs the production of each
issue, and it is absolutely certain that,
Mr. James Sutton, as president of an
organization possessing every facility,
and backed with ample capital, will
be able to go on faster and surer to the
fullest development of an idea, the out
lines of which elicited the warmest en
ihusiasm of his countrymen.
The September number of the Al
dine just received is of unsurpassed
beauty —indeed every issue of the Al
dine is a surprise to all who see it, since
it shows a positive growth in art, beau
ty, and literature, from month to
month, as gratifying as it is wonder
ful.
The editorial articles upon music, art,
literature, and descriptive of the pic
tures, are filled with fresh and valuable
matter. The Aldine Company, pub
lishers, 58 Maiden Lane, New York.
Hon. L. N. Trammell.
Since this gentleman has been nomina
ted for Congress bythe Democratic party
of tho Seventh Congressional District it
is with no feeling of reluctancy that we
hoist his name at our masthead this week.
Mr. Trammell in times past in public of
fice has proven himself a Democrat
true and tried, he has had the honor of
defeating some of the best talent of the
State, has secured his nomination by a
fair method, and the Democrats of his
District should now rally to his support
against all disorganizes and make him
their standard bearer in the next Con
gress.
Cap. Jordan stole a gun from No
ah Scott. They are negroes, and live
near Fairburn. Cap. was arrested, and
his proposition was that, instead of be
ing locked up, he should allow Noah to
give him a whipping. After much dis
cussion it was agreed that the whipping
should consist of thirty-nine lashes on
the bare back with a strap. A great
number of people went out to the bush
es to see the punishment, which was re
lentlessly inflicted and philosophically
borne.
The original Arkansas traveler is
dead. His name was S. C. Faulkner,
and he was born in Scott county, Ken
tucky, in 1808. During the election
campaign of 1840, Ashley, Sevier, Ful
ton, and Yell were on the stump in Ar
kansas, and one being in company with
Faulkner, they stopped at a log cabin
in the Boston Mountains, when Faulk
ner, by his skill with the violin, in
duced the owner to give the five a
night’s lodging. Faulkner, upon his
return to Little Rock, related his expe
rience in the mountains, which created
much amusement, and he composed the
tune and story of the “ Arkansas Trav
eler." lie was a colonel in tho Confed
erate service, and won some prominence.
His age was seventy-two.
War of Races in Alabama. — CV
lumlus , (7a.. Aug. 28 —The negroes a-
Wacoochee Valley, Ala., have been hold
ing secret meetings for several nights of
late preparing to attack the whites.
Their plans were revealed yesterday by
an old negress, in time for the whites to
prepare for them, and when the negroes
made the attack they were driven hack,
and four of them killed. They then
burned two churches and left. Wacoo
chee Valley is sixteen miles west of this
city near Opelika, Alabama.
The Improvement In the Oos-
TANAULA. —Gen. Tilton, of the U. S.
Engineers, having arrived in Rome, is
now engaged in maturing his plans and
organizing his forces preparatory to the
clearing out of the Oostanaula aud Coo
sawattee rivers, under an appropriation
act of Congress. He will commence
work in a few days on the Bnttey shoals,
near this city We feel quite sure the
appropriation will be judiciously ex
pended by the General. — Rome Courier.

Sixteen Negro Prisoners Taken from
Jail aud Killed by a Mob,
Nashville, August 2G. —A num
ber of negroes at Pickettsville, Gibson
county, six miles from H umbo It* threat
ened a riot lasc Saturday and Sunday,
on account of some supposed wrong
done them, and manifested a strong and
- to kill two or three citizens and fire
and sack the town. Yesterday sixteen
of the ringleaders were arrested and ta
ken to Trenton and placed in jail for
sale keeping. About one o’clock this
morning between seventy-five and one
Hundred men entered the town, and ri
ding up to the jail demanded and com
pelled the sheriff to deliver up the keys
thereof. They then took the sixteen
negroes from prison, and after killing
lour and mortally wounding two*on the
confines of the town, rode off with the
remaining ten and are supposed to have
killed them. Nothing has been heard of
the party since they left. Considerable
excitement exists among the negroes,
and the whites are taking steps to de
fend themselves in case of an outbreak.
Memphis, Tenn., August 16.—Des
patches from Humboltand other points
along the Memphis & Lousville Rail
road. in Gibson county near the scene
of disturbances of Saturday, says a per
fect reign of terror exists in consequence
of the excitement growing out of a mob
taking sixteen negroes out of Newton
jail last night and killing them. Blacks
and whites are arming, and such is the
dread of a conflict ensuing, that the
railroad officials find it difficult to pre
vent their employes from leaving the
road.
THE SLAUGHTER OF TIIE PRISONERS.
A special from Trenton to the Ava
lanche gives the following additional
particulars regarding the slaughter of
the colored prisoners :
“ After the maskers, numbering about
a hundred, had obtained possession of
the prisoners, they tied them together
and marched them off on the Hunting
ton road about half a mile from the
town. Six of the number were then
cut loose and ordered to escape, and as
soon as that command was given a full
volley was fired upon them killing four
and wounding the other two, one mor
tally. ihe remainder were carried up
the river two miles and killed. Their
remains were collected and are being
taken care of."
_ In the Circuit Court in session at
this place, od assemblage this morning,
several speeches were made by members
of the bar denouncing the conduct of
the lynchers, who were from the coun
try, and urging upon the Judge to
give tho Grand Jury an extra charge
ordering them to send out for witnesses
all along tho road from here to Picketts
ville, in order to arrest and punish the
criminals.
While the charge was being deliver
ed a runner arrived in hot haste with a
report that a large body of negroes, well
armed, were marching on Trenton,
which caused an djourmnent of court.
Scouts were sent out and returned re
ported all quiet. There is no mistake
but that the negroes are well organized
in this county aud ready for action in a
moment’s warning. Two companies
from Union City have arrived here.
Other dispatches leport everybody as
under amis.
Nasiivtlle, Aug. 26.—The following
specials to the Union and American
have been received :
Trenton, 3 p. m. —Armed men are
pouring in from tho Country to find all
quiet. Scouts say they cannot find an
armed negro. Two of six of the ne
groes found shot last night are still
alive.
Pickettsville, G p. m. —Citizens
are resting on their aims. All the ru
mors of armed negro band3 and fi<rhtinsr
a O O
in the country are believed false.
LATER.
M E.urnis, Aug. 29.-A large meeting
was held at the exposition building last
night and speeches were made by ex-
Governer Harris, London Ghaynes,
Dnncan Mcßae and ex-President Jef
ferson Davis, Chancellor Morgan, R. M.
Eatis, Geu. Forrest and others, all de
nouncing the slaughter of the negro
prisoners at Trenton. The committee
reported resolutions condemning the
outrages and calling for the arrest and
punishment of the murderers.
A copy of the resolution was sent to
Gov. Rrown r.nd asking that the power
of the State be exercised n discovering
and bringing to justice the assassins.
The meeting was enthusiastic and was
composed of leading citizens. The tel
egrams just received from Gibson coun
ty report all quiet and no arrests of
masked persons have been made yet.
Southern Outrages. —The New
York Tribute says very truly : The
almauac-makers who adhere to the old
style of prognosticating would be justi
fied in running down the pages devo
ted to the three months immediately pre
ceding the fall elections the siviotyped
warning, “ About this time look out for
outrages in the Southern States." The
supply of this commodity is always
equal to the demand; or, at least, the
politicians take care that if the outra
ges are scarce the most shall be made
of what there are. However quiet the
South may be from November to Au
gust, between August to November, in
the lauguage of the hypochondriacal pa
triot in the play, “ the couutry is in a
dreadful state."
The Widow of Stonewall Jack
son.—ln a letter to the Augusta Con
st itationalist, from the Warm Springs,
North Carolina, the following para
graph occurs:
“ Among the most notable visitors, I
will first mention, with a reverential
bew, the widow of the immortal Stone
wall Jackson, who reached here, in
company with her little daughter (elev
en years old), a few days since. Mod
est and unaffected in her manners, of a
sweet, intelligent, and animated face,
she moves through life as ihough un
conscious of her share of the glory of
her husband’s name. Mrs. Jackson'is
quite young —I should say between
twenty-five and thirty—of medium
hip lit, and beautiful face. She lives
The Disorder* at the South.
A few days ago we suggested to Re
publican statesmen a duty which they
have hitherto neglected, but which can
not safely be neglected much longer—
that of finding some remedy for the dis
orders between the whites aud blacks in ,
the South. Events tiiafc are occurring
almost every day require a renewal of
the suggestion. Some parts of the
South are becoming the scenes of chron
ic riots. The political antagonism be
tween the two races is rapidly develop.,
ing—indeed, in some regions, it has al
ready developed into a condition of ac
tual war—war suppressed at times, but
breaking out on the slightest provoca
tion into armed combats and massacres
Both sides are supplying themselves
with arms and munitions and both are
holding themselves in readiness for con
flicts which they expect to occur, and
whose occurrence is precipitated by the
mutual preparation for them.
\\ e have had riots at Somerville,
leon., at Austin and Brookhaven,
Miss., in Chicot county, Ark., at
Georgetown, S. G., at Augusta, Ga., and
at more than one place in Louisiana ;
and this is only the beginning. A po
litical campaigu ia opening in the South
which, from Virginia to Louisiana, is
declared to be one between white and
black, and which, it is asserted, shall
Dot be anything else. If we see these
things in the green tree, what shall we
see iu the dry J It is not a subject for
vague conjecture ; it is one for serious
alarm. We know that a condition of
things exists in some of the Southern
States—Louisiana, Mississippi, Ala
bama, and South Carolina, which threat
ens general hostilities. There may not
be armies, camps and artilery seen in
the field, but there will be battles nev
ertheless. Both parties are organized
into secret leagues already in Louisi
ana, and they are organizing similarly in
Alabama aud Mississippi) and each is
prepared, at an hour’s warning, to bring
five hundred to a thousand armed men
into the field.
These organizations are stronger than
the feeble and worthless State govern
ments, and in the outbreaks that are
looked for, the governments will be im
potent to maintain the peace. There is
no independent law and order class of
citizens in these troubled States ; all are
partisans. The whites are all on one
side, and the blacks are nearly all on
the other. If Kellogg in Louisiana,
or Ames in Mississippi, calls on the
State militia to suppress an outbreak
only a handful of negroes respond to
the call. To tell the truth, there is no
such thing as a wholesome, effective
State authority, backed by a patriotic
people in Louisiana, Mississippi, Ala
bama and South Carolina, and when
riots break out, the nominal authorities
are at the mercy of the rioters.
What is to be done? While the
people of the North are discussing the
Beecher-Tilton scandal, finance, free
trade and reciprocity, the South ia I am
bling into a condition of anarchy, blood
shed and social and industrial ruin. It
is an error to imagine that the North
can remain unaffected by this disastrous
confusion. It will affect the whole
country. If it continues, it may bring
troubles that we little dream of, for it may
throw into dispute the legality of the
election of thiity or forty members of
the next Congress; it may produce half
a dozen double governments; it may
make a fatal strain on that weakest
point in our policy—the Presidential
election. We may flatter ourselves
that, in some way or other, these disor
ders will be quieted before 1876; but
the experience of the past does not
bear out the pleasing anticipation. It
is nine years since the pacification and
reconstruction of the South began, and
it is not finished yet; indeed, tho con
dition of some of the Southern States
is fir more threatening to-day than it
Tas in 1865. Imagine the next ITesU
dential election taking place in this
disturbed condition of the South, with
a close contest in the North and a com
pact vote from the South, cast amidst
violence and alleged fraud, coming in
to turn the scale in favor of one party
—and we have a possibility which we
may well do all in our power to avert.
