AfiiiiN(iTON,,D. 0., July 31. Dospito
tho action of the government In lafuslng
to send troops to Vicksburg, tho officials
of that stato continuo to importune tho
president for armod aid. Tho colored
Lieutenant Uovornor, Davis, fully ei
hausted tho appeal, which, after the moat
caroful coniideration by tht president,
secrotary of war, and attorney gonoral,
was finally rofuiod, and it was thought
that Mtiiissippl would now bo content
to take care of Itself in Its
POLITICAL TROUBLE.
Governor Amoa, howo"or. who has bsan
absent from the state, returned the otbor
day, and yas'.orday made aaothsr appeal
for troops, reitorating in tbo main, tho
approbensions set forth in the telegrams
and mall advices, previously forwarded
by lioutonant governor Davis.
Tho following is the telegram sent by

Jackion, Miss., July 23. President
U. 6. Grant, Vashington: I regret to
inform you that I ilnd, upon returning
hero, that an alarming condition of af
fairs oxists nt v ioksburg. Infantry and
cavalry organizations exist, and It Is re
ported that a number of piocoa of artil
lery havo been sont to that city; and
tbeio bodies, organized And armed with
out authority and in violation of law,
assume to bn the guardians of tho peace.
Thla is a political controversy. On one
sido, tho democrats, represented by
whites, claim that tlioy fear fraud! on the
part of their opponents. The republicans,
consisting mainly of blacks, claim that
they fear frauds and also violence on tho
rt of tho democrats. At one time col
lision and
IILOODSHEU WAS PEAKED
by all now by Kcpubllcann; but by
Democrats it Is disbelieved became tboy
have become masters of tbo situation. It
is they, also, who oppose thu presence of
troops at this time. Of the causes of this
lamuutablo stato ot atlairs it Is now use
loss to spoak. 1 only seek peace aud pro
tection tor all. Can thero bo any serious
objection why troops should not be sont
there? No harm can rosult, for troops
aro in many ot our cities at this moment
in two cities of this Stato. Their preieace
may do great good; it may savo many
lives. Pvon ono would morn than com
poniato for tbo harm which If any 1 do
not sou would result from such a prol
unco. Will it not be the least of ovils to
havo troops there for .any emergency.

Leading Itoputiicans hare, And those
who feel an interest in tho continued sup
remacy of tho Iiopubllcan party In the
South, regret that tho officials of Missis
sppi havo seom fit to appeal so persist
ently for federal intorforonco in their
local affairs, since such Interference can
not but prove detrimental to tba beat in
terests of the party there, as well us olae
where. It Is understood that
TUB Rl'.AL FACTS
of the situation nt Vicksburg do not boar
out tho representations of tho governor
and lioutonant governor, and that the
city authorities aro amply able to maintain
tlio peace. In fact, tho mayor and other
officials of tho city, who are republicans,
havo stoutly denied tho noceaisity for
troops from the inception of the troubles,
And have constantly assured tho president
that United States soldiers thoro would
only tend to complicate matters still
worse.
