' Charlotte N. C RACE CONFLICTS. The tragic conflict between white and colored men in the city of Dan ville, Va, has caused great excitement throughout that State and has been a subject of much discussion in Wash iegton and, other cities. We clip the following as showing the drift of pub lic opinion in Washington from the correspondence of the Baltimore Sun : The unfortunate race conflict at Danville has been much discussed. It is considered that it will have the effect to show up more completely than ever the false and hollow pre tenses under which Mr. Mahone has been appealing for outside sympathy and assistance, and give convincing proof that the Republican cause has nothing to gain by affiliation with him or the faction of which he is the apostle. The deplorable occurrence at Danville was the logical and inevi table sequence of the teachings and utterances of Mahone and his party leaders and orators. They have been doing their utmost during the whole of this exciting campaign to foment bitterness between the two -races They clamor for freedom of thought and freedom of expression, for public peace and private rights, they assume to deprecate the use of harsh lan guage by their opponents, yet in all the annals of politics there has never been a clique or faction more false and treacherous to its professions. Wherever they have had the power and their interests demanded it, free dom of opinion has been crushed to the earth, the public peace has heen threatened and broken, private rights have been outraged and invaded, and as for denunciation and vituperation the entire vocabulary of slang and profanity has been exhausted to find abuse to hurl at the heads of those who have dared to differ with them. The foul obloquy poured out upon the respectable white citizens or Danville by one of the Mahone leaders in that place, and his deliberate arousing of the worst passions of the blacks, was the direct cause of the affray of yes terday, and the blood which was shed must rest upon his conscience, if he is possessed of any. Under the 'Bour bon funder" (so-called) rule in Vir ginia, race conflicts were unknown, the white people and the black people dwelt in amity and peace. If the Mahone rule of hate and oppression, of violence and wrong is to continue, these conflicts will become more and more frequent, and who can venture to predict the unhappy and disastrous consequences? The conservative peo ple of V irginia, in the desperate strug gle which they are making against a party destitute of conscience or prin ciple, regardless of pledges or profes sions, consistent only in seeking to perpetuate the blot of dishonor which they have put upon the public faith of a noble commonwealth, are entitled to earnest sympathy and encourage ment, and if they win a victory on Tuesday next, they will rescue the proud old State from a domination which has been, and will be to tbe end, a blight and a pestilence. One of the.direct causes that led to the outbreak in Danville was the bitter and inflammatory speech made to the negroes the evening before by one Simsj a white man, which, speech . incited the bolder and more aggres sive of that race to be still bolder and more aggressive. There is in propor tion to the population a very large number of negroes in Danville, brought there by the demand for laborers in the tobacco factories and warehouses. The town is also well supplied with doggeries, especially in the portion inhabited chiefly by the negroes. On Saturdays they crowd the streets in large numbers, these crowds being increased by negroes from the adjacent country who come in to purchase supplies and have a Saturday frolic. In ordinary times it is not easy to control this motley mass and keep them within due bounds; but when inflamed by parti-j saii' harangues, filled 'with excitement and belligerent whiskey, they because not 1 only boisterous but insolently, offensive and pugnacious. In addition to this the Readjuster campaigners, by am apparent concert and understanding have made the campaign closed Monday, night a bitter and a vituperative one, insult aud bullying seeming to be the chief means relied upon to win the elec tion. Their .denunciation of theDem frltm wainscrubulb!aind VVMVv f , J unmeasured, while1' their low dema l logical appeals to the mob rang from all the stumps and filled the columns , of all their organs. They drew the line and impressed, the twgrp with the belief that his safety and liberty depended on the; triumph of Mahoneism and the rout of the Dem ocracy. Secret circulars were sent to them purporting fabe from President Arthur and other .dtiiigiiished men in the Republican party; telling them that they must stand by Mahone, and Tinmerousi. other disreputable ?and cunning devices! Wef e presorted U to deceive them and secure meir soua support. Advantage was taken of the late decision of the Supreme court on the civil rights bill'to still further inflame them, and extracts from rabid speeches-of. Northern white Republicans; and negroes advising them to make it hot pi the negro". hn nnnosed TthVRepubUcans t'to resort to the blungeon, knife and pis-J tQl,.?;&Giwre scattered among them and had their effect in working "them up to the eicitement tbiit cmmiriated i& the" disiurban at" Bouth l Boston antf the sffibserjit While the negroes are thef sufferers they are the deraded! tools and should not be held responsible asJaPrace for ithiserifi responsi .bJe )pBOtia0Mii and junscrlipbtiii ; lute iwjd so- f?l4 e'rBFii taker advantage ot theuMgroraace to lipcite the better control them tttrtheijallot be-xe : While the ; negroes ' are under such leadership race conflicts are in evitable. " When asked if he would accept the Republican .nomination for the Presi dency General Sherman said to the Sun's Washington correspondent: "Accept it? No, sir; not much. Doht you suppose I know what if means if they nominate me? The politicians don't care anything about me, and if they should nominate me it would be because they thought they couldn't win with any one else. I've got too old to be made a cat's paw of by politicians. I have had a good of fice, been for years at the heai of my profession, have an ample pro vision for the rest of my days, and I don't think I'd sell myself out for that bubble." This is Wendell Phillips' opinion of the Republican party, which he help ed to make: "I remember that the Republican party, in its hot youth when ic had a consciencedid much toward freeing the colored man. But I see that now, the 'willing tool of capital and the banks, and with a thimbje-rig system of national bonds, it is doing far more to undermine our institutions and enslave the white man." The editor of the Americus (Ga.) Recorder, who is an Ohio man, gives this experience: "We have lived in the North all our lives, except the past two years, among people who profess extreme solicitude that the negro should have all the rights and privileges of a citizen, but we never saw a negro on a jury until this week." Col. C. Moulton, a brother-in-law of Senator John Sherman, says President Arthur has shocked the people of Ohio beyond measure by his treatment of Garfield's old and tried friends, not one of whom is now in office, and that if President Arthur is renominated the Ohio Republicans will not support him. The citizens of Savannah'have con tributed about $8,000 in cash and $2,000 in groceries and provisions for the relief of persons made destitute by the recent fire in that city. The President was so much inter ested in the result -of his coalition game in Virginia that he didn't go to New York to vote. The Czar of Russia rules thirty eight nationalities, each speaking an entirely different language from the rest. TO ALL CHRISTIAN PEOPLE. Pleaee Read, Ponder and Circulate. At the request of the Secretary of the W". C. T. IX., of Greensboro, we publish the following circular: The gospel temperance work of christian women was begun in prayer and faith December 23rd, 1873, in Hillsboro, O., by Mrs. Judge Thomp son, daughter of Governor Trimble, and her coadjutors, ; Its first meeting was held in the Presbyterian church, Rev. Dr. McSurely pastor. The ladies who were engaged in it were of all denominations, and, their,work from that day to this has been altogether unsectarian and . non-pdrtisam The work in its organized formic known as the Women1 8 Christian Temper ance (Jwton, Natonal,State and local and oyer three ; thousand towns and cities are now organized. Its objects are to unite the, women of all branches of Christ's church in temperance work, for the purpose of educating the young, forming a better public sentiment, : reforming the drinking classes,itransf orming-py the power of divine grace those who are enslaved by alcohol, and removing the dram snops from our streets by law. The wonderful victories of this society in Iowa, Ohio and other States are well known to the readingpublic. On the 23rd Of December or . this year, will occur the ". TENTH AJOaVSRSARY OV THIS CRtJSADE, and it is the earnest hopeofc the ladies that by this date every State and Ter ritory may be organized. To this end the President, Miss Frances E. Wil lard, of , ChicagOjhas this year made a trip to the far West? and the Pacific coast, and Mrs. Sallie F. Chapin, of Charleston, S. C. ,has steadily wrought in the South. But the States of North Carolina and Mississippi still re main unorganized, and; Texas has held no State meeting this year.; In order that these States may join the"sister! hood of the W, C. T.

It Strikes Several Towns, Kills Seven Persons aad Destroys Mack Property. Kansas Crnr, Nov. 6 A special to the Journal? from Springfield says, shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday af ternoon this city was visited by a de structive cyclone. The storm struck the woolen rxulls destroying a portion of the buildings and doing great dam age to the machinery. It then passed a Tittle to the north, demolishing a number of residences, striking Divi sion street at the corner of Boonville street. The storm followed the line between the . city proper and north Springfield for three blocks, leveling dwellings in both towns. Then tend ing a little to the northward, the tornado passed to Bridgetown, a suburb of north Springfield. The to tal loss is estimated at between $150, 000 and. $250,000. There were proba bly seven persons killed and many injured. The new cigar factory of F. O. Strieker and his residence were com pletely demolished. The family were abse nt at the time. A number of the employees of the factory were injur ed. St. Mary's Catholic church was wrecked. Great damage is reported at Brooklyn and Republic in the southwestern part of the country. The telephone communication be tween these points and Springfield was deEtroyed. Hazell Dell school house west of this city was blown down. There were fifty children in the building but none of them were seriously hurt. Their escape was most miraculous. The path of the storm was only a few yards in width but wherever it struck the ruin was complete. A public meeting for the relief of the sufferers has been called for to-day. Report of the Director of tee Mint. Washington, Nov. 4. H. M. Bur chard, director of the mint, in his annual report states that the coinage of the last fiscal year consisted of 98, 663,624 pieces, of the value of $66, 200,705.' The total coinage of gold was $35,986,927. The value of the silver coinage was $28,835,470, of which $28,111,119 was in standard stiver dollars. The profits'1 on the eoinage of silver collars during the year were $3,701,332, and on frac tional silver $9,160". The net silver profits for the last five, years paid into the treasury were $16,860,310. tJnderthe previsions of the act pf 1878 requiring the coinage of $2,000, 000 worth of silver bullion per month, $154,370,839 had been coined-prior to Oct 1, 1883, and that amount, togeth er with the $81,000,000 of fractional silver, makes a grand total of $235, 000.000. There are. in the vaults Of the treasury 39,000,000 standard sil ver dollars above the outstanding sil ver certificates, besides $27,000,000 in fractional silver coin, facts which, the director thinks, show the impolicy of continuing the coinage of silver dol lars. The earnings cf the mints during the year were $5,215,509 and the ex penses $1,726,285. The director re commends that the coinage of the gold dollar and three-cent nickel piece be discontinued, the dollar be ing too small for ordinary use, and the three-cent nickel never having been popular, and having originally been authorized by the act of 1851, reducing the rate of letter postage to three cents. The repeal of the act au thorizing the coinage of the trade dol lar is also recommended. Director Burchard estimates the total coin cir lation of the United States Oct 1, 1883, at $544,512,699 of gold and $235, 291,323 silver. The Georgia Victims. The Banks County Euklux, who were recently, convicted in the Uni ted States court at Atlanta, have prepared their grounds upon which to move for a new trial, the last of which are that the verdict of the jury was contrary to law, contrary to the evidence, against the weight of the evidence and without sufficient evidence to support it. The motion will beargued before Judge Pardee and Judge McCay, at Atlanta, on November 19. A Minister Resigns. London, Nov. 6.
