Carlisle, the tariff for revenue only candidate for the speakership, has reached Washington and is alarmed at the strength of the protection sentirnent among tbe Democratic members of the next house. This uneasiness is increased by the reproduction of a pronounced free trade speech made by himself in the Forty-fifth congress.

The Indianapolis Journal, commenting upon the remark of the Chicago Tribune, that "the wisest thing the lowans can do is to adopt the Illinois system of dealing with the liquor question, viz: local option and high license," says: "Thatis the wisest thing Indianians can do, and it oilers a platform broad enough and practical enough for everybody to stand upon. The system is working well in many states."

It will be seen by reference to our Marshall correspondence that it is proposed to circulate an agreement for signatures of Marshall people binding themselves not to trade in Terre Haute until just reparation has been made in the Montgomery case. We appeal to our Marshall friends not to do this, and give them all the assurance possible that their grievance should only he placed against a few small-calibre politicians who are incapable of distinguishing between the welfare of their city and the retention of a party henchman on the police force.

The Evidence is increasing tending to show that the political murders in Virginia prior to the recent election were not aB at first supposed, theresuit of a sudden outbreak of highly excited partisans, but that they were planned and diabolically carried out by the Bourbon Democracy. In short they were as much a part of the campaign as the public speaking. Whatever else may be said of Roscoe Conkling he certainly has been consistent in his views regarding the troubles in the south. He has never had any faith in the spasmodic outbursts of protestations of fraternal love and seeing behind it all the unchanged and unyielding nature of the sentiment among the southern people who are still positive they alone are right in the sectional differences, he has refused to fall upon the neck of a southern bulldozer declaring in public that all is peace and yood will. In a recent interview he nays:

had determined them in war, or A'southern minority regain-J»y diplomacy, exercised upon weak minds, what It had lost through force wielded by strong arms. In short, gentlemen, the United States are not composed of thirty-flight states, but of two nations, and having a distinctive social system and a party management appropriate to Its social condition.

Tbe Gazette discusses the Montgom ery case as if there is a law authorizing the arriest of anyone who does not give a policeman a civil answer, and on that basis justifies the act of officer Kunz. Then it confuses the violation of a depot regulation with the violation of a state or municipal law. As the defense in this case persistently refuses to meet the true issue, we again repeat that Kunz thought he had captured a thief or burglar. The fact that Mr. Montgomery was in possession of $400 was referred to that night as evidence that a burglary had been committed, and there were wise predictions that the next day we would learn where the money had been stolen. But the next day the police learned there had been a blunder, and then this charge of resisting an officer came to the surface for the first time.

The defense the Gazette makes for the arrest of young Kohl, of Marshall, is on a par with the defense in the Montgomery matter. Kohl tried to sell a horse which he had ridden from Marshall to this city. He was arrested, but says the Gazette's informant, "he was held for five or ten minutes when a man came up and identified him and the property and he were released," upon which the Gazette comments "so now there is another Marshall case exploded. Bring on some more of them." We suppose the fact that Kohl was under arrest only ten minutes furnishes the explosive power. Perhaps that should answer as a full excuse and vindication, considering the chances Kohl had of being locked up over night

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, FRIDAY MORN I NO. NOVEMBER 16 H8.-8.

The Virginia Murders Pari of Carefully Planned Scheme.

A Specimen Bourbon Party Platferto in Mississippi—Ont ef Politics or be Killed."

General Boynton, who is perhaps the fairest-minded and most careful man with regard to facts of any of the Washington correspondents, telegraphs the following:

Every day brings fresh evidence from Virginia to prove that the outrages of the late election, including its massacre in Danville, were deliberately planned and as deliberately executed. It is now known that two other assassinations were intended: One at Danville and another to include an attack on a colored meeting at Manchester, opposite Richmond. In

A A1 ..T.iim NO/uina/) nv

iliaDtUCBirij vupwaw OI WJ ib uw« *i«v the first the victim escaped by m®r®

postponement of the appointed meeting. The scheme for this Tiot was exposed by persons in another town entering the newspaper offices and inquiring if any dispatches had been received about the attack on the Manchester meeting.

There were three distinct branches of the Danville- affair. At the first move false and most inflammatory circulars were prepared and sent throughout the state to arouse feelings that would precipitate a riot, or which would be raised to a white beat by the news of one. Next came the massacre, for which the excuse was made, a numerous company of white ruffians being ready to open fire the moment one of their number should force a disturbance. Highly exaggerated accounts in which the negroes were represented as attacking the whites, and the imminent danger of negro supremacy were set forth in a manner well calculated to fire the southern heart. Immense editions of these papers were printed and those in the general plot were busy Sundav and Monday in flooding the state wi'th them. Tuesday came, and as there had been no time to counteract the false stories, their influence caused active intimidation throughout the state, and secured the

Democratic success. The whole affair was simply a desperate scheme of the Democrats to prevent an honest vote. The occurrence has a double significance, arising from the fact that heretofore Virginia has been, since the reconstruction measures were passed, a most orderly state. In the days of the ku-klux the clan never flourished here,_ The elections have been, in the main, free and fair. The sudden and radical change from this general respect for law,which there is now abundant reason Jfor believing has taken place, is due to a deliberate determination on the part of the Democracy of Virginia to prevent that state from passing from their.control through a fair election. The evidence is conclusive that this matter has received and is receiving general atten tion from the Democrats of the south The decision has been reached, at least in Virginia an Mississippi, to save their party by whatever degree of intimidation and actual force that may be heeded to accomplish it. The argument is that self-preservation is the right of every community, and aright that can be properly used to prevent negro advancement in political affairs, and, therefore, either through preventing them from voting, or preventing the counting of their ballots, the south shall be saved for white Democrats. -J i. tKMUTT here by citizens of the south, whose standing cannot be anywhere ques tioned. It is the essence of the new Democratic departure to maintain a solid south for 1844.

To expose these things n6w is not to revive the cry of the bloody shirt, bnl simply to make known the line of Democratic action which has been determined upon at the South for the coming presidential campaign. The National Republican is giving much attention to collecting the facts of the late Virginia election. It has a letter to day from Danville from which it appears the mob still holds possession of the bloodv field it won at Danville, Va., on the 3d inst, and the perpetrators of the atrocity of that day appear to be afraid to relax the iron grip they hold lest those who were witnesses shall be free to speak out. Every man

not owned by the Bourbins is watched, and his life would not bjfe worth a pin if he should be suspected of sending out for publication any account of the awful tragedy. My aavices are most reliable, and are derived from sources certain to have the best information. Danville is in Pittsylvania county. Chatham, in the same county, is twelve miles distant. -t Tf k'-fijAjs *'&•('<£?($

The writer says of Mr. Sims, the liberal candidate for the state •enate:, "Sims' escape from the Danville brigands and ruffians was almost miraculous. Owing to his deafness he did not, and does not now, appreciate the danger he was in. He was saved partly by accident, and partly by the prudence of friends. His coffin had been made and paid for, and the cut-throats were guarding all passages to and from the city. Fortunately, the room he oc cupied was in a building the front entrance to which was up an open flight of steps not five yards from the ena of
