A HONE'S JBAPIIFESTO.
Gen. Mahone has issued quice a
voluminous document to his followers
on his late defeat and the situation
in Virginia. Though addressed to the
members of the Eeadjuster party, it
is intended for circulation to make
political capital for the Republicans
in the North. He devotes some Bt ace
to glorifying the Readjuster party,
claiming that all the good results of a
public character that have been wit
nessed in Virginia since the organiza
tion of that party were to be attributed
to its wise policy and able manage
ment, and draws a contrast between
his party and what he calls the
Funder party very much to the ad
vantage of the former, as might be
expected. Having settled this matter
to his satisfaction, he turns his atten
tion to the causes of the Readjuster
aereat, chiet ana towering among
which was the race issue forced by
the Democratic managers. He alleges
that .they had formed a deliberate
purpose to carry the election by in
timidation and by force, if necessary,
and that more arms were purchased
in Virginia pending the campaign
than ever before known within the
same time. The supplies in Virginia
towns were exhausted and Baltimore
had to be drawn on. As an evidence
of the intimidating effect of this state
of affairs he cites several counties
which in the two previous years gave
Republican majorities, but which in
the last election gave Democratic ma
jorities, which he assumes to be evi
dence of intimidation, thus simply re
iterating vhat has been said in -every
Southern State and by every defeated
Republican candidate who claimed as
a matter of right the vote of every
negro, making no allowance for the
increased Democratic vote which or
ganization brings out. Notwithstand
ing the cry of intimidation, the Re
adjusters polled a heavier vote than
they did at the previous election, and
at least one hundred thousand col
ored votes, which does not look as if
the negroes were very much afraid to
go to the polls. As might be expected,
he pays special attention to the ''Dan
ville massacre," as he calls it, the re
sponsibility for which he lays, ae
might be expected, too, on Demo
cratic shoulders, making no allusion,
however, to the inflammatory
speeches of Sims and other Read
juster speakers, which did so much
to create the state of feeling which
culminated in that tragic collision.
In concluding the Danville narrative
ke lingers to deplore the unhappy
fate of the negro thus :
To me as a Virginian, a former
slave owner and an ex-confederate,
the saddest feature of this reign of
terror is the sufferings it has inflicted
upon the negroes here, lhis unfor
tunate people have had a fate as black
as their skins. They were originally
torn from their home and country
and enslaved by whites; they were
then freed from bondage ; both with
out any agency of their own, and
now. when they act on their rights
voluntarily accorded to them, they
are shot down lifce aogs ior pariy
purposes by the beneficiaries of their
toil for centuries. Unless such out
rages be nunished, and their perpe
i-t r . . . a
trators branded as tney deserve, we
mav well despair of the maintenance
of state or DODular rights, for both
have been violated and degraded.
But he consoles himself with the
reflection that a reaction is sure to
come, and inau me ngut against
"bourbonism" must go on. Speaking
for himself he says:
"Fellow citizens of the Readjuster
party, for myself, and speaking doubt
less on behalf of thousands of Vir
ginians as true and brave as any oi
our sons, wmie ueuiuniie an mucu au
anv one the disaster which has oyer-
taken our cause, i am. tnanKiui ior
V -w J 1 1 il l
this opportunity to proclaim now.
surrounded OV rernuurary uiuunsanu
darkness, as boldly and denantiy as
when our cause was bathed in sun
shine, that our hearts are ftrmly and
forever fixed to the immutable prin
ciples of liberty and human rights, as
fltinmincM dv ine iiDer-i Diauurm
and that the fight shall go on against
the bigotry and violence or bourbon
ism as long as it snail piease uoa to
spare our lives tor tne struggle.
"For myself,
as your chairmai
from the outset
of this struggle, J
v1!nrAnwiivedthat the true duty im
posed on me by tho spiAt of our party
was to wage undying war upon bour
bonism; not only as it opposed the
debt settlement; not only as it is the
enemy of education ; not only as it is
imbecile, heartless and wasteful in
administration, not only as it is the
enemy of free suffrage; but as it is
the enemy of that true Democracy
which means that the humble and
weak shall participate in and be pro
tected by the administratidh of the
government as well as the powerful
and stropf ."
He defiantly says there iff a gulf
that shall 3 awn forever between the
Readjustee and Funders, and that
he and his friends will neither ask nor
give quarter. And to show that t
appreciates the situation, and has
some conception of the job before
him, he concludes thus:
We know that with bouTbomsm
before us we have an enemy to fight,
powerful and dangerous to the inter
ests of the State. We know that,
masquerading in the stolen livery of
Democracy, it is no true representa
tive of Democracy, either in principle
or personnel, and I believe the Read
juster party will, when it next meets
in council, unite cordially and thor
oughly with our friends, State and
National, and make common cause
with them against the bourbons,
their aiders, counsellors and abettors,
State and National, by whatsoever
name ihey may be designated.
I repeat, therefore, that the struggle
against bourbonism is to be renewed
forthwith and to the death, and, as
your chair rr an, I call upon every
loyal Readjuster in Virginia to rally
to the standard arid reform to fight a
new battle against their old bourbon
foe in the National campaign of 1884.
Bearing in mind the old watchword
of a free ballot and a fair count, we
have a right to demand and expect
support from the State, and if need
be, from the federal government, in
behalf of t he rights of man, guaran
teed by both governments, and put at
stake to procure the ascendancy of
an unscrupulous party that sticks at
nothing to acquire power.
In Iowa, the Republican canvass
was conducted upon a prohibition
platform, and it was understood that
Republican victory would result in
the submission of the question to ihe
popular vote in the shape of a con
stitutional amendment. It is claimed,
however, that seventeen members of
the majority in the Legislature are
opposed to prohibition, and will vote
with the Democrats against the sub
mission, thus defeating the proposal.
A lady at a Chicago hotel, whose
unruly children -annoyed everybody
in the house, the other day said to a
noted teacher sitting near her at the
table: "Professor, do you believe in
the 1 od in the management of chil
dren?" The professor glared at her
annoying children and grimly re
plied: 'Sometimes, madam; but
there are cases when I should prefer
a revolver."
The receipts for travel across the
great bridge connecting ISew York
and Brooklyn for the first six months
amount to $110,871, or at the rate of
$221,742 a year, from which is to be
deducted current expenses. As the
cost of the bridge was about $16,000,
000, there will have to be a great in
crease in travel before the trustees
can meet the interest oh the bridge
bonds with the receipts.

Enlarging the Seheme,
Mr. Hinton H. Helper has recently
published, with others, a letter he has
received from ex-Secretary Evarts
concerning his projected railway com
munication between the United States
and all the countries of South Amer
ica. Mr. Evarts writes :
"Your proposition to connect the
three Americas North, Central and
South by means 6f a continuous
railway, for purposes of trade, travel
and friendly intercourse, commends
itself to my mind as a measure that
is nerfectlv practicable, and in a
manner essential to the complete
commercial development and general
welfare of all the nations of our west
ern hemisphere. But why confine
the enterprise of railroad connection
to the two American continents, when
Asia and Europe may also bo em
braced within a colossal system of
world-wide improvement? It is cniy
30 miles across Behring strait. It is
3.000 miles across the Atlantic ocean.
The inevitable monotony and increas
insf neril of long voyages in ships of
ever questionable stanebness are be
coming Quite insufferable. Were
now as young as my own children I
should expect to live to enjoy the
pleasure of visiting and running over
Europe py way 01 A4asKa, eiqeria,

for business or pleasure, would con

instruction and delight m interconu

commonly called middle life, X do not
deem an extravagant expectatlen.
The railway age, an age of unparal

gress, is now upon us, and is likely

EX-CADETS C. M. I.
Re-lnion and Banquet in which Chfti
lotte is Foadly Renaimbred .
Correspondence Observer.
Columbia, Nov. 15, 1SS3. Some ac
count of the meeting of U.o x cadets
of the C. M. 1.,-sq long one of the in
stitutions of your city, will no doi Id
be interesting to the many old cadets
who reside in your midst, as well as
to all the friends of that one e flourish
ing school,
At the suggestion of o:v) or two of
the alumni a call was i-sued for the
meeting to be held on Wednesday,
November 14, 1883, during the State
Fair at Columbia.
Numerous responses came in and
when the morning of the 14th instant
came, fully fifty old cadets had as
sembled in this city to perfect the
permanent organization. At this
meeting the following permanent
officers were elected :
President, M. L. Bonham, Jr., Ab
beville, e. C.
1st Vice-President,
Winnsboro, S. C.
2d Vice-President,
Lancaster, S. C.
J. K. Alston,
R. E. Wylie,
3d Vice-President, A. K. S uiders,
Sumter, S- C.
Secretary and Treasurer, Yates
Snowden, Charleston, S. C.
Executive Committee, D. Ravenel;
Jr., Jas. B. Guess, W. W. Butler, G.
P. Miller, B. D. Springs, and Jno. P.
Thomas, Jr.
It was resolved that the Association
hold an annual re union during each
State Fair in Columbia. The execu
tive committee was charged with the
duty of preparing a design for a ring
or pin to be adopted by the Associa
tion at its next meeting as a souve
nier. After a constitution was adopted
the Association went into the election
of an orator for the next re-union. It
resulted in the election of Yates
Snowden. Esq., an old cadet, who is
a .young member of the Charleston
bar and at present the distinguished
editor of the Berkeley Gazette.
At 9 p. m., the Association held its
banquet. This was a brilliant alf air.
An address of welcome was delivered
in happy style by the President, who
was as usual very felicitous in his re
marks. The first toast was the "C. M. I,
our alma mater, within whose walls
the highest ethics of arms, and the
greatest excellence of arte, were en
forced by precept and example.-'
Kesponded to bv J. 1 . 1 nomas, Jr.,
who concluded by reading an elo
quent letter from tlie ex-superintendent,
who thanked the association for
the honor they did the old C. M. I. by
organizing a permanent association.
and who paid a glowing tribute to the
city of Charlotte, which had fostered
the old Institute and to its many
friends in the old North State who
had helped to support it and had
stood byu from the beginning.
lhe next toast was to the South
Carolina Military Academy, which
was responded to by Mr. It. G.
Thomas.
The third toast, which
was enthu
"The City of
us by the
siastically received, was
Charlotte, endeared to
memories of the past, may time but
add to our pleasant recollections of
the beauty of her daughters and the
courtesy of her sons."
Responded to by J . K. Alston.
Then the South Carolina College,
the Press, the Public School, and the
Virginia Military Institute, were re
spectively toasted.
Prof. D. B. Johnson, the accom
plished superintendent of the Colum
bia graded schools, responded to the
toast to the "Public School, ' which
was characterized as "the great boon
of modern progress and the true basis
of higher education."
The btates of Is orth Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida, were
toasted by Mr. C. Fitz Simons, the
old quartermaster, who stated that
he was more accustomed toMater to
the physical than to the intellectual
wants ot the cadets, that it was nat
ural for him to speak last as he used
always to dine las i, and as some used
to accuse him of dining best so he
hoped they would now think he spoke
best. Mr. Fitz. Simons address was
full of incidents of the past and it was
greeted with rounds of applause,
especially when he referred to some
of the happy occasions of the past
which were graced by the presence or
the fair ladies of Charlotte.
The regular toast to the Ladies was
responded to by Mr. W. W. Butler in
an mimitable speech.
The names of the dead were read
by Mr. J. P. Thomas, Jr , the mem
bers present rising and drinking to
their memory in silence.
The occasion was an enjoyable one,
and it is hoped that at the next re
union Charlotte will be mere largely
represented. Chicora.

London, Nov 19. A dispatch from
Cairo to the Standard says a letter
from Jeddah dated the 13th confirms
the report of the death of the com

force numbering 500 landed at Toka

On the 12th the rebels attacked
Suaxim but were repulsed. A panic,
however, sef the inhabitants flying
to Jeddah. The convict station at
Toka is in the hands of the rebels. Jt
is stated that another Egyptian tr be
revolted at Senmar. The situation is
extremely critical. Either Hicks
Pasha, commander of the Egyptian
troops, must retreat or a strong con

must start forthwith to the scene of
operations. The whole movement is

A Methodical .Lynching.
Fowler, Isd.. Nov. ID. About
10:30 last night a man on horseback
slowly rode to the jail from the south
east. After riding around the court
house he turned rapidlv in the direc
tion from which he came. About an
hour after about 300 masked men
rode into the town. They hitched
their horses, posted guards to warn
away citizens and wont to the east
door of the jail, where they soon
found an entrance by breaking down
the doors with sledgehammers. They
then quietly but with great deter
mination proceeded to break in the
iron doors leading to the corridors.
This took perhaps half an hour. They
were after Jacob Neeling, who so
brutally murdered Ada Atkinson
some weeks ago. He met them at the
door of his cell already dressed and
ready to go to his doom. lie was
quickly walked to a carriage in w-hich
was a rope, lhe only remark he
made was "Go a little slow, gentle
men: I am older than some of you."
He was taken to Oxford and hung
immediately.
