Judge Undaon testified thijt about
8 o'clock on tho morning of 'the dlfli
culty, ho was in Nuniicnmacher'si res
taurant; Col. Milliard entered, and
said th'it Col, 1orgun had taken for
cible poeses-sion of the fheriff's office,
and askeil me what ho should dw ; he
said that there was a large am "tint ol
public funds in tho sale in the cilice
tax collections for which he had
not accounted, as well ns a number of
private paper?. I told him that I
thought he had better take with him
a lew fc.-tpeetuble citizens, go to Col.
Morgan and remonstrate with him ;
that Col. Morgan would certainly un
derstand that he had not taken the
right course to prove his right to the
office. Mr. Ililliard then went out
and I faw him just afterward goinu
up the s'reet toward the Courthouse
in company with Air. Ricord, Mr.
Taylor, and one or Jlwo others.
Jds. Clarke, c., testified that when
ho went homo the night before the
disturbance, he met there. Alfred
Small; that Small told him Col. Mor.
gan would havo possession of the
sheriff's oEce next morning if v
BL00D HAS TO EE EPILLE0.
Small said to him, "somebody will
get shot." Clark replied, "it may be
Morgan as well as Milliard." Small
said, ''no, .it wor.'t bo Morgan ; there
arc special men to be sltot at."
A. M, Taylor sworn: I was at the
Courthouse in Yazoo City yesterday
between seven and eight o'clock. Was
summoned there by sheriff Ililliird.
As we came np, and about hall ' way
between Collins' livery stable and the
.Courthouse, Col. Jlorgan met us aud
said to Mr. Ililliard, "I warn you to
keep away from ,tho Courthouse; I am
sheriff of this couaty." Mr. Ililliard
still went on, Col.Morgan following in
our rear. I stopped insido of the
gate at the south entrance to the
Courthouse. Col. Morgan went ahead
of mo and stopped on the steps. ., Mr.
Ililliard entered tho Courthouse, tmd
soon after I heard several shots. . I
then saw Emanuel Sicvcns run.out and
stop on tho left hand sido ol the dGor;
Col. Morgan was on tho right. Mr.
Milliard caino- hastily toward the
door, .in a - ' :

Col. Ililliard walked very fast, was

when he entered the hall of the Court
houFC. Iu a few seconds heard a lick

heard somo ono iu-ido exclaim l'J I

was fired; saw ;iovgan and Stevens re
turning to the Courthouse, in a run ;
Stevons entered tbe hall, Morgan stood

left front door was closed; could not
see the firing in the houtc; saw Col.

repliesMe no smell your fish raassa."
'What are you doing then, sir? 'Why,

The whites in Halifax county,
Virginia, finding after t!.e war that
tliev were greatly outnumbered at
tho polls by tho blacks, were influ
enced by some of the most intelli
gent leaders in the Conservative
party to adopt aw policy ftkich might
bo advantageously imitated in other
parts of tho South. Instead of plac
ing themselves in antagonism to tho
colore 1 people tho' sensible whites
set to work to conciliate them and gain
their siouCdence. In J 809 they nom
inated for the Legislature two ne
groes whoso" views were in accord
with their own, and elected them.
There is a negro majority of about
r:jKW in the county. Since then, by
a coutinuanco ol the samo concil
iatory policy, the Conservative
whites have been gradually increas
ing their influenco over their colored
neighbors until at last this negro
county,4 with its yast preponderance
of black voters, has elected tp the
State Sea ate Major Ragland, a white
conscrative, giving him a majority ol
four hundred and fifty ovo'r a carpet
bag by the namo of Eddy, who ran
against I im. ihe interest of the.
whites and blacks in the Southern
States are indentical j the prosperity
of the former master is essential to that
of the Ireedman, who depend Q.ainlj
upon them for employment tu't sub
sistence. Ihe whites cannot take
too much pains to impress this truth
upon tho minds of the colored men
aboi.t them, as they appear to have
done successfully in Malfax coanty.
