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.

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

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.

Dallas having secured a cotton
compress, has an agency to buy

A child aged about thee years,
with long curley hair and a white
dress with striped calico triim-ming,

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.”—

The incessant rains near Nava-sofa

Dallas expressed her sympathy
for Louisiana on the night of the

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.—

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,

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

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.
