These efforts of Labor to control amt badger capital is with us, an alarming sjrrapton of the unhealthy state of Libor in our midst. Capiud and La bor should be on good terms, otherwise, we cannot be prosperous. Tho Lonshoromeu the I’ainters, tho Carpenters have all, in there way, and under competent teachers we expect, refused to work except upon terms to be fixed by themselves. Judging from the following, which wo copy from the "Southerner," field hands are about to“*<r£fce” also. 13ut we would remind them, that corn enough to feed the colored people alone 1ns not been made in this County. They had better therefore, consider carefully whatthey do, and not make demands which cannot and will not be complied with, and which will only increase crime and suffering. Mr. Editor:—Please insert the following notiio and oblige MANY LABORING MEN. NOTICE. A public meeting of tho laboring men and mechanics of 1'arlington County, will be held at tho Court House, iu the building used as a school house and Church on Pearl street, for the purpose of organizing a Coun ty Labor Association, to protect laborers from the unjust exactions of employers, and to see if something can be done by which labor may receive from capital a fair share of pro fits and a just recompense for service ren dered.

Alderman T. J. Alackey: I protest against this motion, and if certain menbers of Coun cil will act recklessly I will warn them that measures equally reckless will be resorted to speedily by me.

An Inccmlinry Document. AVe publish below the "Proclamation" so called, of R. K. Scott, by misfortune, Governor of South Carolina. In our opiuiou it invites the negro to house burning, rapine and murder; couple it witb the readiness with which convicted felons, of this race, are pardoned, and we can’t escape the conviction, that the ric/rGovernor wants to make occasion for the use of his constabu lary forces. This wonderful “Proclamation” is occa sioned by the wild and and silly freak of a Council to vote against him Mr. Clark, who was present, jumped on on hi* feet and pronounced the assertion “a lie,” Alderman T. J. Mackey: That man is well known to be a thief. I will, therefore, not reply to him; but I can prove that Aldermen Harrow has been bribed. Alderman Harrow: I pronounce this an in famous lie, before God. (Several Aldermen here protested against the language used.) Alderman T. J. Mackey: “Let all be cool. I will not defend myself hero as 1 would else where. I do not think my courage needs proving, but I will defend myself against the charge, and, if time is allowed me, I will prove that the two Aldermen have accepted bribes, while three; who were approached, refused them. Thir unfortunate individual on my right (referring to Alderman Barrow) has received money.” Alderman Harrow: “I will make you prove it.” Alderman T. J. Mackey: ‘T will do so; and I tclifouall, when you arouse the people, your Winchester rifles will bo of no avail. Expel mo, and I will be returned by the people.” Alderman Harrow arose and said: “I want justice done mo. I will not be stigmatized as the tool of any clique. I want to vindicate myself against the infamous charge made against me. I have never been bought. Yesterday I was approached by this very which really meant nothing. Our houses may be burned, our property stolen, our friends murdered—what of that ? But let a negro be frightened and straight-way the Governor speaks, under cover of the Great Seal ofthe State, which once was only im pressed uponhoncst and dignified productions of gentlemen, for our governors were then selected from this class.

Incendiarism, at all times and places, is a crime ofihe gravest magnitude, but its terri ble teachings make it double dangerous in a community like ours.

The protection of law being withdrawn from property, and a self constituted and irrespon sible body of individuals assuming to tbem- telvcs the power of pronouncing upon the guilt or innocence of individuals, alleged to be dishonest, but too frequently because they arc personally or politically obnoxious to their accusers; the flood gates of anarchy and crime aro at once opened; antagonistic asso ciations will be organized, and the communi ty becomes the prey of hostile factions, pri marily cueited by revenge, but which will : eventually be characterized by plunder and license, and the exhibition of the worst pas sions of human nature. Tlie lurid glare of the midnight torch will light up many a p .'aceful neighborhood to scenes of desola tion and plunder, and to attrocitics, at the mere allusion to which humanity shudders, and.which every good citizen, every lover of his kind, all who value and honor the repu tation and prosperity of the State, should ar dently deprecate and devote their most stren uous exertions to prevent and punish.
