Tb? War or Races In thc South.
7 ''Many months ago we warned the
radicals that they were sowing a fear?
ful harvest in the South. We told
them that the measures they were
adopting would inevitably result in a
conflict between the two races. Heed?
less of the solemn lessons which his?
tory teaohes, and utterly regardless
, of tho laws, of nature, our radical
.1 rulers forced their policy npon tho
South, and already aro we beginning
to seo what the consequences will be.
From all appearances a war of races
in that unhappy section of the Tu.ion
is rapidly approaching. The first
seeds of distrust were sown by the
Freedmen's Bureau, which, although
under this patronage of the General
' Government, was most shamefully
used hythe radical party to poison
the minds of the ? ignorant blacks
against their former masters. At a
later day, the Bureau not being as
.eeret a concern as was desirable,
loyal league olnbs were formed from
the Potomac to the Bio Grande.
These organizations were composed
almost entirely of negroes; they be?
came so powerful in numbers and
political importance, that eventually
their members assumed to be the
rulers and masters of the whites. So
long as they-were permitted to dis?
play their arrogance and' assert their
.usurped power, so long was tho dan?
ger averted. But the logical result
i of two years of despotism lies now
' before tm in the foot of a counter ac
;. tiou on the part of the whites. From
one end of the South to the other a
new secret society, known as the 'Eu
Klux Klan,' has been organized in
opposition to universal negro suf?
frage and negro mle. The aims and
purposes of the association are not
Pconcealed from, the world. Thc
Southern whites have declared thal
they will no longer tolerate a policy
which sinks them into servitude and
makes a semi-barbarous race theil
masters. Thus we no r have two in?
tensely hostile elements organized
and organizing, and facing cae!
other-tho Ku Klux Elan, or Bccreci
$ociety of white men, on the on?
hand, and the loyal league associa
tion, or secret society of negroes, oi
the other, each straggling for supre
macy, and each of a race alien ii
civilization and ideas to the other
How long will it be beforo such an
tagonistic elements pass the bound
of political warfare and engage in i
contest of bloodshed ??d dseslutioa?'
The above extract from the Nev
York HerakiiB full of truth-althongl
we think it is too fast in its conclu
tiou, that a war of races in theSoutl
? is in?vitable. It is in error, also, ii
supposing that the secret organizo
tion of the Ku Klux Klan is generali
^ { prevalent in the South. It in nc
known, we are satisfied, in Sout
Carolina; sud excepting in Tennet
see, where it originated, can ?careel
be said to be an organization at ni
The proper time for such organizi
tions has not yet arrived. The whit
race of the Sooth nro now earnest!
striving to prevent tho necessity <
au!,' such organizations, by defeutiu
the negro Constitutions, by whioh
negro rule is to be put over them.
Until it is tested, -whether they will
have this rule prit over them, they
will endeavor to avoid all organiza?
tions looking to ito defeat by violence
in any form. But should they fail in
their efforts, and negro governments
bo put over them, we doubt not that
every city, town, village and .'neigh?
borhood in the South will have com?
binations of tho White population, to
protect themselves against negro
rule. Our own impression, however,
has ever been, that Congressional
reconstruction (or rather destruction)
for the Southern States will fail
that is, tilt t so many States will fail
adopting it, as practically to defeat
the object for which it was put into
operation-the perpetuation of the
radicals in power. Should it fail in
Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia,
Texas and Alabama, the people of
the other Southern States may well
await the development of events,
through the next Presidential elec?
tion. But if the radical policy is
successful throughout the South, tho
Herald is perfectly right in its inf ar?
enco-that a war of races is inevita?
ble, and we do not suppose that any
intelligent white man m tho South
radical or Democrat-has" now or ever
had any doubt that this would be,
and must be, the result of such a
policy. The idea that tho white race
in the South, vastly superior in num?
bers to the negroes, would allow the
Southern States to bo ruled by them,
is so silly and absurd, that no sensi?
ble man could entertain it. The
radicals in Congress knew, when
they passed these measures of recon?
struction, that they would institute
by them, if successful, ? war of races
in the South. They knew it-and
they intended it. The Southern peo?
ple will strive to avoid it; but when
lt becomes inevitable, they will ac?
cept their fate, and meet it as be?
comes them. They have no more
fear of the rule of negroes titan of a
herd of wild buffaloes from the prai?
ries of. the "Weat.

THE KU KLUX KLAN AT WABBING?
TON-FOIVNKX'S FRIGHT.-Accordinf
to Forney, the Southern Ku Kins
Klan, that sanguinary and mv6teriou)
organization of alleged ex-rebel bush?
whackers, have opened their dens ir
Washington, and commenced tin
issue of their terrible edicts to ob
noxious radicals, beginning with Ben
Wade and Ben. Butler. Fearful, in
deed, are these Ku Klux rescripts
with their cabalistio coffins, deatl
heads and cross-bones and formulas
such as "Bloody month, cloud;
moon. Death! death to traitors!'
"The negro must be eaton raw
blood and clotted gore," Seo. I
Beeres, however, that none of th
radicals in Washington who hav
received these dismal tickets of leav
have been frightened out of their wit
except Forney. He, however, i
very easily frightened. At one tim
we find him in a cold sweat over a
impending invasion and pmgatio
of Washington by the gray-coate
Maryland militia; at another tim
he calls upon the loyal men of Ann
rica to be wide awake, for tin
Andrew Johnson ia plotting a cou

SPECIAL NOTICES.
YOU KA. Y DE TOO LATE.-Bo warned
id time. Diseases Uko Indigestion ?nd
Dyspepsia are not to be trifled with.
There is such a thing as being too late in ?
tkese matters. Inflammation, or Scirrhus
Cancer-, or some other dangerous disease, J
may ensue, when all restoratives, no mat?
ter how putout, would be ineffectual. Do
not delay, then. When the symptoms of
Dyspepsia aro flret experienced, resort at
once to the great restorative medicine,
HOSTETTER'8 STOMACH BITTERS, and
yon will be safe.
Bat few disorders involve greater suffer?
ing, and, if- not in itself immediately dan?
g?rons, it is the source of many deadly
maladies. Even if it did not tend to
greater evil, the mental and physical
j misery it produces is alone a suiflolent
reason why no pains should be spared to
prevent or cure it. In no country on the
j face of the globs is it so completely do?
mesticated as in our own, whore it is
found in nearly every household. HOS
TETTEB'8 STOMACH BETTERS are uni
I venally conceded to be the sovereign
remedy for this annoying disease, aa thoy
act directly upon tho digestivo organs,
correct and tono the stomach, and givo
renewed vitality to the system. Acting
! delightfully npon the nerves and soothing
the brain, renders thom efficacious aa a
' mental medicine, is well as a genial ato-,
moobie. If taken aa & preventive, they
will bo found particularly well Quited to
' the diseases arising from the unhealthy
season of autumn, and their ase will pre?
vent tho creeping, unpleasant sensation
often complained of when the chills are
stealing slowly upon the patient.
