Those wishing a first class article ol flour or good beer are invited to call and be supplied by Wood & Green. The ADVANCE is the only Newspaper in Waco that takes the Telegraphic Dispatches. The radicals want civil rights and mixed schools at the South, but they turned negro Cadet Smith out of West Point, as Smith says, because he was a negro. Frelinghuysen demands mixed schools, unreserved commingling of the races in the South, but in his own State of Now Jorsey, whore the law higher than the constitution is said to prevail, the two races are forbidden even to assemble together in the same church. ----------.--- ^ 9 ^ -------.------- Last winter the Supremo Court of South Carolina, consisting of the apostate Jew Moses, the Pennsylvania negro Wright and a New York carpet-bagger Wil-lard, decided that certain fraud-ulent bonds wore legal, tho great part of which Willard’s brother in New York city held. And that reminds ono, by the perfect con-trast of the action of tho House of Lords, England’s highost tri-bunal, which set aside the deei-sion of one ol the purest and abl-est judges of England because of his decision in a case in which he discovered after the decision he had an interest. The House of Lords, then looked into the merits of tho case, and finding tho decision a just one, decided in ac-cordance with it. But then there are no carpet-baggers or negroes in tho House of Lords. Conflict of Races in Alabama. Selma, Alabama, Sept. 16.— The Selma Ala. Times, has tho following dispatch: Demopoiis, Ala., Sept. 16.—A difficulty took place in Greene Go. between this place and Fork-land,, this morning. Dr. Minor of Forkland, on visiting a pntient on tho Rowe plantation, about six miles from here, found a large party of negroes in arms and drib ling. When he asked the party what they meant, they told him that negro blood had been shed, and they aro determined to'have white blood in return. It is re-ported that the citizens sent two parties of white men to pacify the negroos, and to let them know that the report that negroes had been killed, was false. On ap-proaching the negroes, these men were fired on by the negroes and two of them wounded, ono seri-ously. This morning the whites, num-bering thirty or forty, went down and dispersed the armed negroes killing and wounding several of them. Tho negroes numberod 2 hundred. They aro the same ne-groes that stopped tho govern-rnent rations and have held pos-session of the public highway ev-er since. When fired upon this morning they dispersed, but they are reported to have reassembled and declare that no white man whatever pass there under pain ot death. The County Commissioners of the Court of Dallas Co., compos-ed of two negroes and two whites, all republicans, adopted the fol-lowing: Resolved—That we are unac-quainted with any violence used towards any citizen or person in this county, in consequence of his opinions or free expression of them, entertained as an American citizen. Bagging and Ties.—Two car lords of bagging and ties have just been re-ceived by J. R, Cox & Co.', East Waco. agWd&wtf Result of the Cabinet Meetings. Washington, Sept. 16.—The President was persuaded by Bns-tow and Jewell to postpone his journey to Long Branch after he had sent his baggage off to the station. Two Cabinet meetings have been hold to-dqg-for the discus-sion of tho Louisiana question. It was decided that the Penn gov-eminent should not be recognized under any circumstance, boeauso had not the President already, so far committed himself to Kellogg as to be unable to back down? Recognition would establish a precedent that would bo follow-ed jn other States. Penn was officially imformed that he could not therefore expect any countenancd from the admin-istration. The next proposition consider-ed was the re-establishment of a militia govormmont, but this idea was rejected and it may be taken for granted that the ’ President will use tho ontire force of the U. S. to reinstate Kellogg, as soon as the five days have expired unless Bomoother plan is "devised. The administration is greatly disgusted with Kellogg, and es-pecially at the cowardice shown yesterday, and would be glad if be and Antoine could be in some way got out of the State so that some decent men could be put in tqeir places to represent the gov-eminent Grant intends tosustain. Gen. ^Emory was ordered to-day to protect the State Treasury, in which considerable money is accumulated for the payment of ineterest on bonds, but which has been tied up by injunction. The President has ordered the concentration of troops in Louisi-ana, from all available points, and also two ships-of-war from Key West, to go up the river to New Orleans. It is not believed any further official action will be taken until the expiration of the five days, when tho full purposes of the government will be announced. Special to the News. Washington, Sept. 16.—There-suit of the Cabinet meeting this afternoon was an agreement that the following dispatch bosontim-mediately by the Adjutant Gon-oral of the Army to Ge% Emory, commanding the Federal forces in Louisiana: War Departnent, Sept. 16.— Under no circumstances rocog-nize the insurgent government of Louisiana. Within five days of the dato of the proclamation to the insurgents, such action will be taken as the emergency may require. By order of the President, (Signod) E. D. Townsend, Adj’t. Gen. The Louisiana revolution has staggered the administration. They will do nothing within five days. There can be no doubt but their poesent intention is to re-store Kellogg. It is said that Grant is very angry. The tone of the Northern papers is per-plexing, many of the most ultra Republican papers arguing that Louisiana has exercised the divine and conceded right of re-volution. It is consideration whether Louisiana shall be added to Gen-eral Sheridian’s department, or whether General Terry shall be sent to New Orleans. General Terry ranks General Emory. Referring to a proposition in the House of Representatives made by the Republicans of Ten-nessee to do away with the vio-lent features of the Civil Rights bill which threatened to break up tho public schools of Tennessee where the colored people have 589 schools paid for by the whites for the exclusive use of tho blacks, old Brownlow, a true blue in republicanism says: “It was scornfully rejected by the bootblacks, barbers, pastry-cooks, bartenders, and thieves in Congress from the Southern States.” His classification is coinprehon-sive but strictly true. Senator Spencer of Alabama used to be a bartender in Indiana. State News. Dallas having secured a cotton compress, has an agency to buy cotton for factories. The grasshoppers have started north from Granbury. A child aged about thee years, with long curley hair and a white dress with striped calico triim-ming, and bavofooted, went to the house of Mattie Cross, last even-ing, and when asked its name, replied “Delias,” and said that its “mother and father had been burned up in a big tent,” and that it had come to town “in a big wAgon with yellow wheels.”— Dallas Herald. State warrants are now held at 95 cents. The incessant rains near Nava-sofa have brought the worms in-to life and the estimates are again being cut down. Dallas expressed her sympathy for Louisiana on the night of the 16th. The largest mass meeting ever held in the city indulged the forlorn hope. Marlin, S$pt, 16.—The jury has been discharged in the Pells ease which resulted a mis-trial after six days deliberation. The jury stood six to six—the former mer for acquittal and the latter for five years imprisonment.— News Special Austin, Sept. 16.—A pardon ■was issued yesterday to W. E. Garrett, of McLennan county. James B, Colgato, of New York, was the purchaser of the last 8300 000 bonds of the new issue. Jefferson is begining to send her cotton to New Orloans direct, as formerly. Whittlesey paid up on the 15th through S. L. Holen that the balance of his indebtedness to the county of Harris, and the suits against him have been dismissed. Poor Gregory ! The Denison African Methodist Preacher Whitewashing Committee is -de-nounced by ono of its members who says it did not consult him in its published opinion and that Gregory did nesthide with color-ed Mrs. Young. Brooklyn can’t beat Denison. A man aboye Denison while stealing a ride on the cars, fell off and was literally smashed to death. The negroes and whites in Ala-bama have had a tew collisions in Alabama since the troops were ordered there. AtEutaw a white stripling named Cockrell, the son of a scalawag, led seven hundred negroes on the town. They were opposed by two hundred whites led by chancellor Dillard, a republican of honesty and ca-pacity. He met the negroes, had a parley with them and prevailed upon them to disperse. At De-mopolis forty whites dispersed two hundred negroes who were diillingand making threats. It is evident that emissaries have been sent all over the South to inflame the feelings that have been aroused by the Civil Rights bill and find pretexts for martial law and still greater oppression. Cur young friend of the Age seeks light. He desires to know why the contrat between the Ship Channel Company and Commo-dore Morgan calls the construe-tion of the channel only to thej city limits, and not to the foot of Main street. If there is such a provision, and we presume there is, it is because the charter of the company gives them authority to dredge only to the city limits—not within them. The city has jurisdiction within her limits.—Housron Telegraph. Germany has sold her needle-guns to China, not because she has no more need of them, but she has found another kind which can kill twice as many French- TELEG RAPH IC. ISpecial to Waco Advance.] Mayor Will* Calls on Gieu. Brooke. New Orleans, Sept. 18.—No new developments this morning. Gen. Brooks occupies the excu-live office. Mayor Willz had a cosultation with him in relation to reestablishing the municipal courts and othei matters pertain-ing to the polico department, pro-servation of order etc. Consultation in tlte Custom* house. A consultation is now going oil in the Customhouse between Gov. McEnery and his partisans and Kellogg and others, looking to a compromise, but legal obstacles are said to present themselves at almost every step. Military Government accept* able to both Side*. A military occupation of the State until Congress disposes of the question, would doubtless bo cheerfully acquiesced in by both parties. >r*re« Attack Rayon Kara and are Repulsed. A dispatch to Gov. McEnnery from Bayou Sara reports that the town was attacked last night by negroes. The attack was ropuls-ed. Gen. Emory has ordered troops to that point. Another Cabinet Mectins;. Washington, Sept. 18. — A special meeting of the cabinet was held this morning and after consultation tho following tele-gram to Gen. Emory was sent by the President through Adjutant Gen. Townsend : War Department, j Adjutant General’s Office, }■ Washington, Sept. IS, 1874. J To Gen. Emoly, Now Orleans; La.: I am directed by the President to say that your acts to this date, so far as they have been reported aud received here officially, are approved, except so far as they name Col. Brooks to com-matid the city. It would have been better to have named him as command-er of the United States forces, now in that city. The State government ex-isting at tho time of the beginning of the present insurrectionary govern-ment must be recognized as the lawful State Government until some other government can be legally supplied. Upon the surrender of the insurgents you will inform Gov. Kellogg of the fact, and give him the necessary support to reestablish the authority of the State government. If at the end of the five days given there still exists armed resistance to the authorities of the State, you will summon a sur-render of the insurgents, and if the surrender is not quietly submitted to, it must be enforced at all hazards, this being an irisurrection against the State government of Louisiana, to aid in suppressing which the United States government has been called upon In the forms required by the Constitution and laws of Congress thereunder. It is not in the province of the United States authorities to make terms with parties engaged in such insurrection. (Signed,) E. D. Townsend, Adj. General. —— - - ♦ -------------- Latest Markets- Liverpool, Sept. 18 Noon—Cotton steady. Uplands 8 ; Orleans 8}. New York, Sept. 18. Cotton quiet. Uplands at 1G| ; Or-leans 17}. Gold 109}.

And fanatics would undoubtedly be-lieve it. NEW MARKET HOUSE.

If at the end of the five days given there still exists armed resistance to the authorities of the State, you will summon a sur-render of the insurgents, and if the surrender is not quietly submitted to, it must be enforced at all hazards, this being an irisurrection against the State government of Louisiana, to aid in suppressing which the United States government has been called upon In the forms required by the Constitution and laws of Congress thereunder. It is not in the province of the United States authorities to make terms with parties engaged in such insurrection. (Signed,) E. D. Townsend, Adj.

Now who can complain of high priced lumber. It is expected soon that the Chicago Inter Ocean will say that the uprising in Louisiana is a new rebellion having for its object the skinning of every negro in the State for his hide and tallow. And fanatics would undoubtedly be-lieve it. NEW MARKET HOUSE.
