Hl'CH ADO ABOIT SOTniXG.Washintrton is all aeoe. There has not

been as much excitement in this modernGomarah since the battle of IJul! Run. Themen are walking up and down Pennsylvania

with clenched fists. Knitted browsoml mmr.renwil lir. while the womenare exploding with a volley of hystericalscreams. The consternation is equal to thatwhich followed the fiat that Carthage mustbe destroyed. The reader will anxiously inquire the cause of this hub-bu- b such atempest of wrath. With a sad heart, amidthe earthquake rocking of a convulsedworld, we proceed to give the reasons whichhas caused this tempest in a tea-po- t. There

les in Washine-to- Citv a "citizen ofAfrjcan descent" who glories in the euphon- -

oua name ot t redencK uougiass. i nis venerable Ethiopian was a few days since madeUnited States marshal for the District ofColumbia by the President who seeks tocrive resuectabilif r to larceny. The duties ofthe office which eecures to the sable marshala salary of ten thousand dollars per annum,not requiring all his valuable time, he quietlyfolded his manuscripts and stole away toBaltimore, where he delivered a lecture to aperspiring audience of gaping loungers, inwhich he pronounced Washington a den ofthieves a ilace so infamously and notoriously corrupt that he had scrupulously avoided raising his tenderbrood of curly-heade- d pickaninnies inWashimrton Citv. For two lonir hours theirate Douglass defamed Washington society,Lake the New York vitriol-ma- n ot manyyears ago.he squirted his acids upon everythingand evervbodv. According to the hideouspicture he painted, the men were all knaves,and the women all tainted. When this lecture, as reported by the Baltimore papers,reached Washington, the whole communitywas frantic with indignation. The toper sub-stituted curses on the head of the impudent"nigger" for his ."morning grog, and men,women and children were so busy in puttingon the war-pai- nt that they forgot theirscrambled eggs and hot slap-jack- s. Everybody hurried to and fro along Pennsylvaniaavenue, all anxious to do something to firethe magazine, but not knowing how to goabout it. An indignation meeting was suggested, but prudent tax-paye- rs and cautiouslandlords were of the opinion that, if so muchcombustible material were brought together,a conflagration would be inevitable, and itwas finally determined to treat the case onthe homeopathy principle, and allow the community to vent its wrath separately andalone, or in small squads. Men and boyswere popping into stores and spinning aroundhotels and saloons with monster petitions to thePresident for the removal of the calumniatorof a saintly community, sanctified and madeholy by such righteous men as Ben Butler,Boss Shepherd, Zach Chandler, and the chimeof Parson Newman's bells. A whole dayand night were given up to curses and exe-crationa, and the next morning the ptess renewed the attack upon the poor old negro bypouring upon him a flood of abuse. Forney's

.Sunday Chronicle fired a double-shotte- d gunof grape and canister, and demanded theimmediate dismissal of the veteran liar. TheSunday Herald boiled with rage. The Ga-zette exhausted the vocabulary in abusing the"dirty befouler" of the saintly denizens ofthe capital of the nation. The WashingtonRational Republican, which went into wildparoxysms of rejoicing at the nomination ofa "gentleman of African 'scent" to the mar-shalsh- ip

of the nation's capital, denouncedhim now in a lengthy tirade. It said that

" "by his own act he had sunk to the lowestdepths of degradation. He has thrownoff the cloak of hypocrisy he has worn,and stands forth in the naked hide-ous depravity of a slanderer, lost to allideas of decency and propriety." And "inthe names of justice and decency we (it) de-mand the removal of this slanderer from theposition he now holds." The Rational an

has been stigmatizing the people ofthe south for ten years as assassins, whiteleaguers, brutes, kuklux, murderers of poornegroes, and now it proposes to crucify FredDouglass for applying to the people of Wash-ington the language with which it has de-famed the south for many years. After thestorm comes the calm. When the thunderand the lightning have spent themselves thereis perfect serenity, and now that the damagedsociety of Washington has been restored toits purity through the filtering process of in-dignant abuse, it is hoped that all will soonbe quiet on the Potomac. It strikes us thatthere has been too much exhibition of feelingat the folly of a very contemptible negro. Aweight has been given to the words of FredDouglass which they do not deserve. Persist-ent protestations of virtue arc no indicationsof chastity, and the excessive indignation ofthe people of Washington indicate thatthere is much truth in what hasbeen said. Worse things have been saidof Washington than were uttered by thenegro marshal in his recent Baltimore speech.Near thirty years ago a United States senatordeclared that the national capital ought to beemptied into .the Potomac on account of itsgeneral corruption. All cities are alike, andare generally regarded as a seething caldronof corruption. A great metropolitan city isnever disturbed by the calumnies and abusesof mountebank lecturers. Paris is never ex-cited at the charge of corruption, and NewYork would smile at anything Fred Douglassmight say as to the habits and morals of herpeople. It is only provincial cities that knowtheir weakness and the need of puffing thatare sensitive to any reflection upon their purity. As to Fred Douglass, he is an arranthumbug, caressed and worshipped by his ownrace, for whom he has done nothing. Henever did anything for his race, buthas talked much for his own in-terest. The death rate of blacks inWashington, as in Memphis and all southerncities, is largely in exce9 of the whites. Themortuary reports are staring Douglass in theface, and yet as a leader of his race, he hasnever inquired into the cause or at-tempted the amelioration of the condition

of h" I5u'he,is hri ou ut; itia tu.c 111 iuca all ulajui, jviUic, instead of instructing theiu as to tnetneans by which to prevent the race from becoming extinct. e are a little curious tosee how the President will rex pond to thepopular clamor for the removal of this obnoxious office-holde- r. If Douglass were a whiteman he would be dismissed forthwith. Beinga negro he is likely to escape merited punish-ment; and if he does his patron must sufferthe consequences. The appointment of sucha troublesome specimen of the black brother-hood to such an office was a bad blunder, andHayes probably realizes the fact now as henever did

1IOKK VIGOR. JIFRt 1IAXTH!The New Orleans Time, on Saturday last

called the attention of the merchants thereto the large amount of trade that city haslost from want of vigor to prevent it fullinginto other hands. We copy a paragraphtrom tne article, and suggest that there arecases, even here in Memphis, to which thestrictures of the New Orleans editor verynearly apply. When we think of the daywhen the St. Francis, the White rivers, anda considerable portion of the Arkansas didtheir business in Memphis, we perceive thatmore territory has been allowed to slide fromus than ought to have done, when we consider the business facilities Memphis possesses now, that it did not own when the tradewe speak of was centered in this city.good boat is almost, useless, unless the carsare industriously and skilfully handled, anda city possesses advantages from position andfrom nature in vain, unless those advantagesare turned to practical use. The Times says"We do not think the circumstances of thepast are a sufficient excuse for the amazing8upineness of our business men as a bodyWe think the loss of trade i9 largely due tomere inertia and a silly over-estima- ofthemselves, which is no better than stupidity,They tit in their dignity like an ancient three- -decker, dreaming of the glories of the past.unconscious that their style is superanu- -ated and their armament a laughing-stoc- kThe merchant who formerly shipped large in-voices to Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama andArkansas, fondly imagines that he is as important as he was thirty years ago, and thatthe country dealers are only waiting for something or other to turn up in order to rush tohis arms again. That ardent rush will neverbe. The country merchants are meditatingnothing of the kind. Where New Orleans isas accessible as other cities, they may, otherthings being equal, prefer to trade here, butthey will not pay two cents a year for theprivilege. Henceforth forever they must besecured by superior or at least equal induce-ments. When our merchants reach thiscommon-sens- e and efficient basis they willaccomplish something; not before."

A HEVERR REBl'KE.The Dayton (Ohio) Journal takes the po

sition that " the people of the north who sacrificed themselves feel that those who sacrificed their lives not merely to save the Union,but for human liberty, deserve a recognitionquite distinct from that which is due to men,however brave they were, who fought notonly to destroy the Union, but to perpetuatehuman slavery. Let the south honor itsbrave dead, but let the north maintain hermanhood by observing that there is a distinction between the cause of traitors andthat of patriots. We have no flowers to decorate the grave of treason, especially fortreason intended to perpetuate human slavery, ine Cincinnati l tines pounces upon tneDayton editor and pounds him in the following style: " Is it worse to decorate the gravesof the Confederate dead than it is to givehonor and high place to the Confederateliving? Is it intolerable to strew thegraves of Lee and Johnston withflowers and commendable to receive Hampton into the w tute House,and to give to Nicholls the national supportand favor? Is it unmanly to place a flowerby the modest stone where Jackson sleeps,but patriotic to take Key into the President'scouncil? The Dayton Journal has allowedits sympathies to get the better of its judgment, its emotions to run away with its con-sistency. If the north can 'maintain her ( ?)manhood by observing that there is a distinction between the cause of traitors and that ofpatriots,' by what propriety is the observa-tion of that disLnction not extended to theliving as well as the dead? The Journal istoo sagacious not to see that there is a ne- -cesity upon it for a rectification of its position."

OHIO CERTAINLY DEMOCRATIC.The Democrats of Ohio are sanguine of an

overwhelming victory in October next. It isall very well to make fun of Mr. Hayes fortaking care of his Ohio friends. He is pledgedto one terra, say the people, and he certainlycan't be filling the offices with his placemen.In 1881, Ohio will have to send to the UnitedStates senate a successor to Mr. Thurman.On the fourth of March, 1881, Hayes leavesthe White House. It isn't so wonderful, afterall, th.it Mr. Hayes is putting his Ohio friendsinto office. Make a note of this. The Re-publicans of Ohio are much perplexed as towhether the Slate convention, wSten it meetsto nominate candidates for State officers, willindorse Mr. Hayes's policy or not. It wouldbe a signal discourtesy for the convention notto indorse; and yet, there are a great manyRepublicans who declare it cannot af-ford to indorse that to do so wouldlose them the State. The Ohio Re-publicans are in the condition of the buf--taio bull that died because it could nevermake up its mind whether to join a drove itsaw going for salt or another drove going forgrass. He wanted ta go with the largercrowd, and never could quite make up hismind which drove was the most numerous."He" died between salt and grass." Whilethe Radicals are thus divided, the Democratsare united in a determination to elect a ticketcomposed of Democrats who were contendingfor the principles to which Hayes has becomea convert, and which he opposed until madetriumphant by the election of Tilden.

THE ClIAWE IX LOl'lsIAXA.Hon. Randall Gibson speaks cheerfully of

the improved condition of affairs in Louisi-ana. The State bonds have advanced sincePackard was overthrown from sixty to eighty-fou- r,

and he thinks the bonds will be at par isthree weeks. Real estate has advanced twenty-f-ive cents. A better feeling prevails amongthe people, and many of them have set torepairing their houses. General Gibson saysthat Louisiana is going to be the most pros-perous community in the south. The sameinformation is given as to the improved con-dition of South Carolina, and the redemptionof Arkansas and Mississippi has been fol-lowed by the same results. These facts af-ford a terrible commentary on the scandalousRadical administrations underwhich the southhas so long groaned. And the party that hasso long ruled and ruined the southasks southern Democrats to aban-don their organization and desert theirold friends, aud to become absorbed intothe Hayes whig of the Republican party. TheDemocrats of Alabama, Arkansas, Virginia,Mississippi freed themselves from Radicalismin defiance of the opposition of Hayes, andthey will be true to themselves and the partyto which they are indebted for their free-dom.

AMERICAN- - JIAM IACTIHEK.One of the most interesting problems now

existing in this country is that as to its abil-ity to manufacture cotton goods at prices thatwill enable us to compete successfully ' with

THE MEMPHIS DAILY APPEAL-FRIDA- Y. MAY IS, 1877.England. Recent efforts in that directionhave given great encouragement, and if congress would modify some existing legal ob-structions the chances of success would bemuch increased. One good thing has beengained, as a basis that cannot but very greatly aid enterprise in this direction Americancottons are valued abroad as being much superior to British goods. With quality in ourfavor, we shall likely be able to solve theproblem victoriously. A writer in the NewYork Bulletin of Monday said: "Foreignmarkets are taking increasing quantities ofdrills, ducks and coarse and medium sheetings; and in a moderate way, not yet of anygreat effect, our blanched cottons are movingabroad." Ibis trade is, of course, in its infancy, but let a good foothold once be got,and it will soon grow to giant proportion. Ifthere ever was encouragement to start a cot-ton manufactory in Memphis, it u now, whencapital is abundant and cheap and the stimulus of an opeuing foreign trade adding vastlyto the grounds which insure succtss.

VIRUISIA.The southern States always respect the po-

tential voice of Virginia. The Republicansand the office-seekin- g recruits from the Dem-ocratic party who favor the party in powerexpect to overcome the forty-fou- r thousandmajority cast against Hayes in November.The St. I)uis Republican is of the opinionthat any sensible person ought to see, though,that is the hight of folly to expect any suchdefection. There is one living, vital issuethat win always hold Democrats together, solong as the Republican party exists, and thatis opposition to Republicanism. A sinnercannot be transformed into a saint by one actof tardy justice, and there is just as muchcorruption and dishonesty inside the Repub-lican party as at any time during its eightjears rule under Grant. Hayes is not theRepublican party by any means. When theRepublican party goes out of existence alto-gether there may be demoralization and defection in the Democratic ranks, but so longas it remains to le fought Democrats willstand together to do the fighting.

Correspondence of the Courier-Journa- l,14th : i our corresDoneent has not the slightest disposition to make a political raid intothe affairs of Louisiana, but a little more thanmere curiosity prompted me, in companywith Itev. Mr. Baeley, ot lrenton, Kentucky,to pay our personal respects to his reigrningexcellency, Governor Aicholls. liis othce isin the old St. Louis hotel, now used as aStatehouse. Hard by the closed door of thegovernor's office sat a heavy-se- t colored individual, who seemed to be doing the honors otadmission. As he politely invited us in, assuring us that the governor would be in in atew mmutes, it was easy to detect in his man-ner some gratification that gentlemen fromKentucky had called to see the eoverner. Unentering the office we were shown a solid,sensible-lookin- sr crentlemen. who. upon mutual introduction, we lound to be n-

or 1'enn. ot the M i,nery trovern- -ment. A free conversation ensued. Governorrenn, during his remarks, spoke of Packardas one ot the best men ot his party, as a manot ability, in regard to

THE FRAUDULENT ELECTION OF HAYES,he was emphatic; but, as the parties hadagreed to leave the question to the arbitrament ot the commission, and as that commission had decided infavorof Hayes, he thoughtHayes could not be censured tor accepting thedecision. About this time governor iNichollsentered the room, and was formally introduced to us by Governor Penn. His greetingwas cordial. Uovernor IMcholls is. we shouldjudge, about torty years ot age, some hve feeteight inches high, weight about one hundredand sixty, dark hair, rather ruddy complexion, noss not large but slightly roman, darK-erav eves, small brown mustache, with acalm and determined expression of features.He has but one arm and one leg, the latter,however, so well mated by a cork leg as tomake the deformity unnoticeable. The conversation turned upon

TIT E POLITICAL SITUATION.

We asked him Questions as to the meaningot the .ioint parade ot both parties in thankstnvine on the tenth: ot the loundation ot allthe bulldozing stories; ot the financial condition r ot the relative tendency ot the partiesin Louisiana, and of the eff ects of Mr. Hayes'ssouthern policy. 11 is replies to all these questions were calm, clear, without equivocation.showing that he was a man of positions, firmand determined. He said the joint parade ofthe soldiery was designed to show that thebitterness ot party teeling was yielding to anera of better things. His discussion of thebulldozinars in some ot the Louisiana parisheswas apparently sincere and truthful. He saidthere was nothing in it beyond the ordinaryelectioneering schemes, such as might and dooccur in the other states; that no doubt bothparties engaged in the ordinary electioneeringschemes; that the

ELIZA PINK8TON

and many killing stories had nothing to dowith politics. He went into details as to thecauses of many of the disturbances; statingthat the cotton was often left upon the plantsfor months, and hands hired to pick it.Often it was stolen in small quantities andsold for whisky to the little stores that wereestablished for the nefarious practice by un-principled men of both parties. No lawcould reach these petty thefts.. The goodcitizens of all parties felt outraged, and in

e, independent of politics, formedvigilant committees. These committees, inbreaking up drunken rows and destroyingthe establishments carrying on this nefariousbusiness, laid the foundation for the bulldozing stories.

THE FINANCIAL CONDITIONof the State was hopeful. During the pasttwo months the fctate bonds had advancedfrom fifty to eighty-eig- ht cents, and woulddoubtless be at par soon. As to parties, hebelieved the State to be Democratic. Itwould depend on circumstances as to theeffect of the President's policy on parties,but thus far it had inaugurated

AN ERA OF GOOD FEELINGS,and that the whites of both parties, save afew of the immediate carpetbag followers,were heartily in support of Hayes's southernpolicy, and that changes were constantlyoccurring among the colored people. Hethought the effect of Democratic rule in Lou-isiana would remove prejudices from theminds of the colored men, and make thembetter citizens and more Democratic. Heanticipates no further difficulty in Louisiana,but looks hopefully forward to

A CAI1EER OF PROSPERITY.He says that common politics attract butlittle attention here now, after the excitingBcenes since the war. Gratified with ourvisit, we left Governor Nicholls, after re-peated and cordial solicitations to remainlonger, with renewed faith in the future ofour whole southern people, whose grand his-tory has not all been written. The Nichollsand the Hamptons are ftill alive; and a sub-lime spectacle occurred on May 10th, when,the first time since the war, the two soldieries,but a little while ago in hostile array againsteach other, marched the streets of New Or-leans and stepped time to &ie same music.

ALL LOUISIANA REJOICES,and the grand people of the Crescent Citywear the smile of blooming hope. Beforequitting the Statehouse we witnessed an un-usual assemblage of colored, or rather, forthe most part, half-colore- d, men, anxiouslywaiting for something to turn up. Upon in-quiry we found that it was the last of thePackard police, awaiting the payment of theirwages, which had been ordered. In the ab-sence of any harmful feeling to anypolibcalparty, this hasty sketch is given, in the hopethat the example of Louisiana and SouthCarolina may awaken a new era of good feel-ing throughout our whole country, bindingus indissolubly together on the principles ofeternal justice. j. w. r.

From Our Own CorrespondentWihinvr.-mv- . Mav 14. Rarrin? the mut

terings of war from the old world, the eventsof the week worthy a place in history narrows down to the President's visit to I hiladelphia, Fred Douglass's speech, and the potent voice ot rumor in regard to certain cabi-net changes, mcde significant by corroborative evidence and the theory of probabilities and "Old, Prob." although sometimes in error, seldom jests. Well, Mr,Hayes went to Philadelphia by invitation toassist in the opening of

THK PERPETUAL EXHIBITION,an enterprise built un of the debris of the famous Centennial, and gilded all over withthe events and memories of the first grandcelebration of the nation's birthday. It willdoubtless prove a good thing for the QuakerCitv. and in that sense we cannot forbearusing the hackneyed but significant expressionthat antilies to so many things so well."therea millions in it." The major part ofthe administration household went. Jn tact,the President and most of the distinguishedofficials and gentlemen at the capital went.with a goodly sprinkling ot filibusters intent on catching a chance to pour into thePresidential ear eulogiums on this or thatsceme, speculation, policy, or official change,the hrst place to smile came in when the puerims passed Baltimore. Ordinarily, the deDot would be crowded with anxious sightseers and and it would beextraordinary it numberous delegationsloyal citizens did not take advantage of suchan opportune occasion to pay their respectsana invoKe an expression oi sentiment concerning the welfare of the republic and allmankind, including

THE FORKION BELLIGERENTS.But, ordinary or extraordinary as it may

appear, there were no such happenings, andthe intelligent face of the President wore ananxious expression as he turned to trthe car, after having made a gallant chargeon the rear plattorm in expectation ot meeting a sea of upturned faces, anxious to hearand behold the premium governor ot Ohio,the lather ot the new policy, and the representative man ot the minority ot his countrymen. in lact, nobody came but the usualnumber of modest hackmen, hotel-runne- rsand newsboys, and the train

PASSED ON WITHOUT INCIDENT.But the place to widen out into a broad

grin with a healthy chuckle comes in when.on the occasion of a public reception given at1'hiladelphia in honor ot the President, noneof the local politicians of eminence werepresent, and even Grant himself had a chill, and was being blanketed andrubbed down at the Union League rooms atthe very moment when the brilliant socialevents accompanying the reception were oc-curring. These are trifles, but there is a meaning and a moral. Where does the Presidentstand with the skill, the brains and the powerof his own party arrayed against him on theone hand, and the devoted, earnest and solidDemocracy, fully appreciating the good hedoes, but feeling a higher sense of duty todefend their time-honor- principles, opposedto him on the other? Surely, it must be in

THE BLOODY CHASM,down among the noble minority, made conspicuous by their paucity, which' he so ablyrepresents. Fred Douglass is in trouble atrouble he may have courted deliberately,but which will undoubtedly have a differentending from the one sought. After receivingthe proud and lucrative appointment ofmarshal of the District of Columbia, he takesoccasion in a public lecture to slur the office,misrepresent the i resident, and to malignthe people ot the District in a vicious, cowardly way. The lecture was well written andscholarly, and more than likely it was prepared for him by some of the great lights ofthe tSlaine-Morto- n wing ot the party tor apurpose. He has thus set at defiance thosewho put him in the place, as well as thosewho, although opposed to his selection, grace-fully acquiesced, doubtless for the purposeof being removed, becoming a martyr, andstrengthening the Radical element of hisparty. It is too thin. Petitions for his removal are being extensively circulate.!, andare being signed very readily by persons ofall shades ot opinion. He will be removed.and will not be a martyr, although he may be

AN ANGEL,it he repents, it is stated on good authority that Attorney-Gener- al Devens isweary and would prefer to serve hiscountry as its representative abroad. Heis slow and heavy, while the place requiresa man of quick perception and resource. Itis thought Secretary M'Crary will take hisplace. v ho is to be secretary ot war is notknown, senator Gordon has been spoken of,but he denies it, and says the report was circulated to injure him. It is significant, however, that he is here.

A Question fur Old Timers to AnswerDon't all Speak at Once.

Panola County, Miss., May 15. Lookingover a volume ot the old hnciiclomntiaAmericana, published in 18)0 by FrancisLieber ex al., I hnd in the article lennes-see- "

the following statements: "In this State,as well as in Missouri, are ancient burying-ground- s,

bTHE CAKTETIJAGCaKKS.

The Recent Political Condition in theMonth as Viewed by a London Pa-

perAn Earnest .Hope thatCarpetbag Government

is at ail End.

We mav liODe. savs the London Standard.the period of "carpetbag" government in the south the rule ot northern adventurers supported by ignorant negro votesin the teeth of the whole educated and tax-payi-

body of citizens is at an end. Onlythe most extreme Radicals will regret it. Themen who, taking advantage of the disfranchisement of great bodies of southern whitesand the proscription of every leading south-ern statesman and soldier, took up the tradeof agitators in order to make themselvesrulers of States in which they had no legiti-mate interest, have done nothing to benefitthe negro, much to injure the whites, andmuch more to produce bitterness and distrustbetween the two races. They have madetheir own fortunes at the expense of theirconstituents. They secured the negro vote bypromises they never attempted to fulfill;promises which only the deepest ignorancecould have believed, but which con-tributed for a long time to keepthe negroes idle, discontented and an-gry. They imposed upon a people almostutterly ruined by war, devastation and emancipation, taxes which during the highestprosperity ot the soutn would have been con-sidered intolerable. In their actual conditionthe property-holder- s were utterly unable topay these imposts, and numbers of valuableestates were sold for payment of taxes tromwhose expenditure the fetate derived little orno benefit. At the same timo the intrusivegovernments contracted enormous loans onthe most reckless terms, by which they andtheir northern friends who bad undertook thetransaction alike profited at the expense ofthe, southern tax-paye- r. In one Stat, since.r ii j, a i i- .r- -icoii, me oeut. nas Lieen increased irom nvemillions to forty; in many others obligationsalmost equally enormous and unwarrantablehave been undertaken The money has beenexpended not in repairing the waste of waror enabling the people to reorganize theirrevolutionized system ot industry, but inmaking the fortunes of the adventurers, theirhangers-on- , tneir northern allies and advocates, and those negro leaders whose influ-ence enables them to exact a share of thespoils. In those southern States which haveremained longest under the rule of ihe adventurers, the latter have done more to impoverish the people than did the war itself.The administration of the law has been grossly partial. jNothmg but the strictest enforcement of legitimate contracts and thestern discouragement of all " disorderand bad faith by the public authoritycould have taught slaves emancipatedby a conquering enemy to work steadily andloyally as free men for wages. The northernadventurers, caring nothing for the intei estsof communities to which they were strangers,thought on'y of winning and securing thenegro vote, and encouraged the blacks togather in the towns, to lounge, to pilfer, andto idle in the country- - No planter or farmercould obtain justice against the negroes whokilled his cattle, stole his pigs and fowls,plundered his crops, and too often insultedhis family; still less against laborers who,having received wages in advance, desertedat the critical moment when the cotton or to-bacco fields were liable to utter ruin from aweek's neglect. Wherever the whites weresuccessful, as in Georgia and Virginia, inwresting power from the intruders, thechange from extravagance and anarchy toeconomy and order was immediate and striking, i et trom none ot the btates where thisoccurred were there any such complaints ofmaltreatment ot negroes, or any such uglystories of race collisions, as constantly camefrom those quarters where the '' carpetbag "governments ruled by the vote, and nominallyin the interest, of the blacks.
