S. C.. last week, comes evidence -ml that the affair was planned aud organized at Radical headquarters in this city.? Briefly the affair was as follows : Sometime 0,s ago a notorious negro from that locality, of *^1tlie name of Sam Lee, came here, and, af- st:,t ter consultation with Hale and Gorham, or aul' their jigynts, ^al^yu w.irMwHimcttCT^rl * "/ai r iI L'0~u\relative TrTr to the Fed?A-ul telectJtJn statutes came' out. u,,n Lee meantime had gone back to South Car- rani olina, aud having armed two or three thou- ri sand negroes with weapons purchased by I,,cj funds furnished from Radical headquarters here, issued a call lor them to assemble en manse at the tho town of Sumter, on a cer- ^0,, tiiu day which rtad long previously been 111 appointed for a Democratic rally. I 0 This call stated that the negro mass meet- 1,101 i?g would be addressed by General Grant, 150 1 General Sherman aud Mr. llayes, and instructcd the negroes to come aruied ! Ac- W0! cordiugly, the misguided creatures asscm- P'a bled to the number of about 3,000, and cro were met by the Democrats with a courte- 8au ous proposition lor joint discussion.? 'j01 This proposition was ignored, and Sam Lee, 'inl | not being equal to tin; occasion he had l',c , conjured up, decamped. This left the ue-- JJftfl grocs under the leadership ofau |?IU1I WLniyrg OoghlSn, who lmrntigUPCV flictn at length, and incited them to disturb the soc Democratic meeting. They did so, aud at -^c one moment a general row was immiueut, car but, thanks to the coolness aud intrepidity ^ 1 of two or thrco Democratic leaders, peace ^T" was restored and enforced by the arrest of several of the more disorderly negroes, and the remainder of the mob left tho town.? :,ct Not a shot was fired, and but ouo person s'1( injured?a negro, who was knocked down 10 jfptLfrpistol but by a constable for attcmp- to rescue ono ol' the negroes under lll( arrest. t ac( It is no fault of tho. Radical managers ^lt that this atrocious plot failed to produce 0,1 riot -and bloodshed. They furnished the n,a "hartley to arm tho negroes aud mapped out a plan of operations. Of course they knew. *c-c that a conflict coidu have bat one result; W1 T^^aP^artoone* Hut that was exactwhat Messrs. Ifale aud Gor.^ni confreres wanted. After nll^semtsRniQiL.
