VERY MUCH BLIND ; , A whiro man in Greenwood' L county last week was *hot in a] i, ^ blind tiger by a blind negr<?. known as Blind Will. To add tot the blindness of the occasion the vounff man was crobnblv blind' * drunk. , * ? SHOULD EXPLAIN. We have heard of no explann-j tlon from Senator McLaurin as to (Mr. N. A. Duumng's claim that he , furnished I he Senator with speech , ea that the latter delivered in. Congress. Possiblv Mr. McLaurin! thinks this charge t oo absurd to he j It-" I : i.. :.i j ti iBerriou&jy consiuereu. liiere uie many friends of the Senator,! however, who would like to have, him throw some light on the mat ter; and, while we do not doubt; that he can fully vindicate himself, * we think it due his constituents! that he speak out and refute these slanderous charges. T!WE TO CALL A HALT. The columns of the daily pap ers teem with all sorts of crimes of violence and blood-shed whose * prolixity almost inhibits their enumeration. Every onaof these crimes is covered bv legal statute. and yet we seldom hear of anyone's being punished on laccount of! them. Is the strong arm of the. P . j law paralyzed that these tilings; can be? Under ocr boasted form! k of government are we relapsing; into barbarians? Whose is the fault? A few legal hangings in this State woo Id have a most salutarv effect in vindication of the majesty uf the , t'ir law. Justice cries out against the & * blood of the victims of murderous p hate and it is time to call a halt. / I T* -^T THE NORTH CAROLINA RIOT. In the race mix-up at Wilming- < I ton, N. ??., and the similar riot^ at , Phoenix, in this State, occurring . on eleclion day, there is much fc; i be pitied, but also a great deal to i be condemned. In North Carol; i?a trouble had been expected. : V, '-~ The people of both races, it is <n: 1. i L had been arming themselves in . i R, - ' - - ^reparation for the'clash regarded 1 a? alfnost inevitable. When 1 lie f election day passofT-juieliy thousands oi In-arts felt relieved, and 1 % nli eves were turned toward a'li sister Si ale in fervent eon:::* t! tior. ?)'>? only !"r the brave and ' glorious she made, 'out soi the wonder!;;! self cnn'roi exerted ,1 i by her citizens. 1 hi* sense,of relief \v;>< short 1 livr'j, flOWc'VlT. Sc;uve twenty-;' four hours had j? iwhen news came that flu; nfizens wer?* pa 1 radine: the streets in mobs. -am! thrtt s 'vera' negroes had noon ' killed and mr.ro wounded. The j1 cause of the fiirht was the deter i lr.inatiou of the white men !o (ie strov the |*rin?in^r office of a rie^ro editor, Manly, who had been run out of town tcr publishing defam atorv editorials about while worn } i, en. A crowd ot negroes attempt 1 . . . i i ed to defend ine property and a genera! fight ensued. The negroes <; were whipped and the ofliee de stroved. Following this the iv<>-; publican municipal an!horities j were forced to resign and vhitej men were elected bv mass-meet- ! ing to fill their places. ' All this seems revolutionary. j t - iiit ? ine wime people nau oorne miien ; from the mongrel government 1 that had so grievously oppressed them. But with an assurance that 1 their troubles in this respect were' at an end. they had no reason to j violate the law and injure proper ty. The negro editor had given 1 much provocation, and should! have been dealt with moresevoVe!y, perhaps, than simply banished lrom town, but when he had gone. ! to wreak their vengeance on his j place of business tended towards! i anarchy. llowbeit, North Carolina lias very effectually solved 'he problem of white government, and the \ day is indefinitely distant, we; I think, when she shall have i reason to fear negro government.; MOB LAW AND LYNCHING. & 1 The bloodv record of the rns' ! : ' week in Greenwood coonK has made a chapter in the history o! the State unparalleled f..r tbe* past . two decades. Following so closely on the heels of the Edgefield i v m-iiiug, me bu['iu pie ?uiair at ; Phoenix bears a startling signil-1 ieanee. The killing ot Mr. Eth-: ! ridge was a wanton, unprovoked! outrage, and it was just and natur-' al that it should call for vengeance.' But the ends of justice could cer , tainly have been met in a legal j war, if the law against murder is ? anything else than a howling farce. (If course the community was horrified and the friends of the murdered man righteou>ly incensed. It is always so when a man is killed without a shadow of an !; excuse. But every man has a > ri^ht to ooual nrotociinn ur.i'.pr the law, even though he be ? negro. Because a negro kills a while man it does not justify a win legale ami indiscriminate butchery of the race.
