Chicago, September 21. The Inter
Ocean's Springfield, Tennessee, special
says : Sometime ago a white man was
found dead in this vicinity. lie was
a bachelor, of considerable property,
and lived at Saddlersville. He was
not r politician, but a planter of good
character, and was undoubtedly mur
dered by some highwayman for booty.
Nevertheless the Democrats of this
section took advantage of the occur
rence for political effect and soon ar
rested seven of the colored .Republi
cans, and leaders of the best men and
those of most political influence and
charged them with the crime. They
were sent to jail and tortured by all
the methods known to the inquisition
to induce them to confess their guilt.
They were whipped, hung by the
toes and thumbs and would have died
under the torture if they had not
been men of extraordinary constitu
tions. Of course no confession could
be obtained and no evidence against
any of the prisoners was secured by
the prosecuting attorney, who by the
way was a Democrat. The men who
instigated this outrage endeavored to
have the trial postponed until after
election as it was very appareut they
would be acquitted, but being unable
to secure a postponement they organ
ized a mob of 150 men and attacked
the jail at night and lynched twe of
the colored men. The remainder will
be held for trial. The object of the
lynching was to terrify the colored
men and it has been accomplished.
While the Democrats here all depre
cate the tendency to give political
color to the outrage and attribute the
lynching to the pub'.ic feeling among
the whites that crime ought to be
punished without waiting for legal
dalay, the colored people a'.l under
stand what was meant by it and have
taken warning. The colored men
lynched were respectable, law-abiding
citizens and active Republicans. Al
exander II. Byrd writes irom Eautaw
Green county, showing that in the
precinct from which Mr. Byrd
writes there were seven hundred and
thirty-eight votes cast. According to
the count by Democratic judes the
Democratic ticket had a majority but
now come forward six hundred and
twenty-one men who make affidavit
that they voted the Republican ticket
which would give an absolute Repub
lican majority in the precinct of oyer
five hundred. Mr. Wallace, the U.
S. Commissioner who came from Mo
bile to take the affidavits referred to
above was first grossly insulted by
some prominent Democrats and after
wards five rifle shots were fired at him
and his friends as they sat under a
tree in the court house yard.
St. Louis, Mo., Sep. 21. -Judge
Kraum, John O. Broadhead and John
F. Phillips, the commissioners to re
port on the statues of the government
lauds of the Indiau Territory will re
port to a citizens meeting to-night
that the jurisdiction of this vast terri
tory was not acquired from the In
dians but by purchase of the United
States from France. The Indians
never had a title to the country but
simply occupy it under a contract
und by permission from the United
States. The government has by va
rious so-called treaties, assigned, to
the Indiausthrougliout the country
certain lands, but has never granted
them free hold or free use of the land
in any case, nor can the government
by treaty give them the right to oc
cupy in perpetuity in fact. According
to the law ot the nation, treaties can
only be made between civilized peo
ple or nations. The president can
not will or dispose of lands to the
Indians by treaty; Congress alone
has this power. The treaties were
simply agreements to allow the In
dians to cultivate the laud under the
existing acts of congress. Persons
may enter pre-emptions and
homestead claims on any of the lands
not reserved by the government for
other purposes. There pan bo no
valid objections tosettlemcnt on these
lauds.
Portland, Sept. 21. The Greenback
convention to nominate electors met
this afternoon. Four hundred and
sixty-five delegates were present.
Chas. A. White was chosen president.
He denounced Gen. Tifuld and said
an understanding was entered into to
divide the electoral ticket and urged
carrying it out. S. D, Hobson pre
sented resolutions endorsing the ac
tion of the State committee recom
mending a fusion with thde emocrat--J.
B. Chase amid great excitement
protested. Elliott King moved to ac
cept the report and resolutions as to
nominating a joint electoral ticket,
Chase made a motion to amend by no
minating seven straight gre enbackers.
This was received with applause and
hisses. The speaker made an appeal
for a fair hearing and argued against
a fusion. There were thousands of
grcenbackers in the State who voted
for the rest of the ticket with Plaisted
who will not rote for Fusion electors
He protested against giving away the
future greenback party for four
greenback electors. It was a green
back candidate and platform that car
ried the State, Rev Albah Strout,
F. M. Plaisted and others advocated
a fusion, after which the previous
question was carried and a resolution
to fuse adopted, although annd con
siderable opposition.
Chicago, Jll., Sept. 21. The Times
6ays the Democratic trepidation in
Indiana has changed to hilarious con
fidence as it is presumed that the Su
preme Court which meets to-day will
not reverse its decision overturning
the Constitutional amendments
changing the State election from Oc
tober to Isovember. That the advisa
bility of doing this was seriously con
templated at one time when the
chances of Democratic success in Uc
tober seemed more remote than at
present there cannot be any doubt.
Ono of the justices of the court says
the motion to reverse will be consid
ered early and disposed of before
many days have elapsed.
Boston, Mass., Sept. 21. The Jour
nal, of Augusta, Maine, telegraphs as
follows :
Our footing by counties gives, Da
vis, 73,579 ; Plaisted, 73,389; scattering.
475. Davis over Plaisted 190. There
are seven towns or plantations to- bo
heard from, besides an uncertainty
about the vote of the towns yet to be
received in determining the restrlt.
There is probably an inacuracy in
some of the figures already given also
questions about other inacuracies
which appear in the returns, which
with the close vote render the result
so doubtful that it will only bo deter
rrtined by the official canvass of the
returns at the opening of the Legis
lature.
Corning, Ohio, Sept. 21 One of
the militia officers found a suspicious
character in camp who upon being
pressed lor particulars said in the of
battle Sunday one miner was killed
outright and eig- t wounded, of
which one will die. The man who was
killed was buried on the way home
by his associates. Said miners expect
help from some quarter and iutend
making a general attack on the troops
as soon as the answers arrive and that
they will commence operations by
turning the colored miners. All went
to work to-day.
: Portland, Mo., Sept. 21. All but
one town, Sheridan, have sent in the
returns, proving a plurality of 179 for
Davis, less 20 which Sheridan gave the
Fusionists last year, but partial com
parison made with the returns made
to the secretajy of state show errors
euough in telegraphic returns to give
a clean plurality to Plaisted. These
returns will have to be compared with
the returns of the secretary of state
in order to establish correction, and
as soon as the secretary is heard from
the comparison will be telegraphed.
Laucastershire, O., Sapt. 21. Gen
eral Ewing telegraphs to his wile
here from Charleston, Arizona under
date of Sept. 19th, that b ing home
ward bound ho was taken down on
the 16th with an attack ot malarial
fever and that the doctor had ordered
him to Santa MonicaTJal., tor f lie ben
efit of sea air and has interdicted all
business nnd politics.
Loudon, Sept. 21. --A Times Paris
correspondent says : The real cause
of De Freycinet's fall was his foreign
policy and it was resolved upon the
day he opposed Gen. Thoniassin's
mission 1o Greece, as also more defin
itely on his replying to the disquiet
ing Cherburg programme.
New York, September 21. The
Post says it is believed that the party
in favor of the amicable adjustment
with the American Uuion has control
of the Western Union telegraph com
pany, and it is not surprising if Van
derbilt sides with this party.
Chicago, September 21. The Dem
ocrats of the Third District this after
noon nominated Perry N. Smith, Jr.
May heaveis tpeed the time when
there shall be indicated some sure un
failing route from the town to the de
pot. If you go the way to-day that
you did yesterday you have to climb
over freight cars and so it goes.
The prize fight set for yesterday
did uot take place, therefore the
stakes of $2,000 a side were neither
lost nor won. The contestants got in
to a dispute concerning the rnles of
the fight and filially agreed to drop
the whole affair.
Large crowds of people were as
sembled' at Ratou, vesterday, to see
the prize fight between the Denver
hero aud the Leadville giant. Such
fellows should be arrested and taught
that when they wish to pommel each
others noses they must go to some
other community than New Mexico.
Charlie Gleed. who is in charg
of the advertising department of the
Santa Fe. road, returned on Friday
from Colorado and New Mexico,
where he has been to collect matter
for a new and attractive advertising
document. Charlie thinks the neigh
borhood of perpetual snow preferable
to the dusty clime he now iuhabits.
Commonwealth.
A. M. Janes writes us from the
White Oaks that everything is in a
flourishing condition in that camp
now. Thirty new houses are in
course of construction, ono of which
will cost $1,500. lie says twenty
capitalists had come into the place
during the three days prior to the
date of his letter. This is cucourag
ing news and shows that the White
Oaks camp is being built on a firmer
foundation than ever before.
The sc hool house and surround
lugs on the hill, prevent the pictures
of the land we used to live in, at re
cesi time. Happy boys aud girls,
may fate protect you from going so
far west of here as to be a tenderfoot
loudo not know his soriows. It
takes five weeks to inspire confidence
enough to get credit, and his "pile"
runs out at the end of three. He must
live in a little room all by himself and
eat soggy biscuit with every one else.
One of the La Junta and Santa
Fe mail agents informs us that the
people of this city will frequently put
letters in the mailbox, whether the
train is going the way the letter is
wanted to go or not. Sometimes let
ters addressed to parties in Las Vegas
will be carried to the depot and there
deposited in the car letter box. What
people are th' hg about is hard to
tell. They n ..st take the mail agents
as city carrio .3. When letters arc in
tended for the we9t they should be
put ou the train going west, and when
intended for the east, care should be
taken that they are put ou the train
going east, as otherwise much time is
lost in their reaching the destination
ihteuded for them by the writer, as
the route agents do not exchauge
mails but take them on to some gen
eral office.
