Tuesday Morntng, t Au g.-18, 1874; POSSIBILITIES FHOM AN INTBIi LIGENT NOBTHBIIII STANDPOINT, On of trie ablest aod fairest of thd ndeperideErr( journals of the country is the Chicago Tribune.' SpeaVidg of the chances of , the Civil Righ significant language : 1 41 If the: f next Cobgress passes it, or makes " an earnest effort to pass it, parties in- the ' South will be everywhere divided into "- whites and blacks forthwith,' and the " whites will win. The negroes can carry "only three! States at the outside. And " then, with the North divided, the South M cm whites will hold the balance of pow- "cr.n . .-.h.".:--. i ,;: v,;?- .' ' Having learned by experience that it is not best to take a prominent part in National campaigns the South will probably care more hereafter for hei local interests than for holding the balance of power. , One thing we will do. We will see that the gov ernments of the Stales r where the whites are: in a majority are ad ministered I in the interests of the property holders and intelligent peo ple. No more carpetbag admira tions, with their, flagrant rascali ties and grinding oppression, for ns. This is the whole matter in a nutshell. The threats that Radical and so-called independent journals have made if the " White Man's party" shall not disband fall like child's prattle on our ears. We trust to the fine sense of a majority of our countrymen for immunity from further reconstruction botches. We believe they as well as vr&cC the South see that the wcte' business of reconstruction has been a failure, whose tragic features only redeem it from farce. - We fear no vaporings of this sort from the lips of disgruntled old Abolitionists. We know our- right gives us security in this period of reaction from the madness of the . war. ' ;f Hut the remark of the Tribune is nevertheless a suggestion full of wis dom, and should be duly considered by the fools, fanatics and mercenary partisans who are preaching a second crusade against this section.' The Southern States may, at a day . not very far off, control the destinies of the country. If so, they will control them wisely and for the interests of the whole, not a part. An alliance with the free and generous West will give them full scope for the exercise of her statesmanship and develop still fur ther the patriotism that was once potent on field and forum. The great Chicago journal is apparently a friend of the Sonth. Will it speak out yet more decisively in favor of justice to the white Conservatives of these States? A contributor of Tiie Morning Star advocates a second State Peni tentiary to be located on Deep River in the midst of the coal and iron re gion. His object is to utilize convict labor in the development of. the great resources of that portion of the State. Perhaps a better, because more econ omical, plan would be to establish temporary quarters there for labor ers drawn from the Penitentiary at Raleigh. iThis is feasible. Tbe Hallroads of the Country. United States show that , during the past two years the amount invested in railways exceeded tl.OOO.ooo.ooo.

There is to most men something especially repulsive in the labors of the miner. To be immured in Uhe bowels of the earth from which there is no escape exceot through one small orifice; to labor there by the faint ngnt or lamps lar from the bright sunsnme, is not a pleasant lile, yet thousands of . industrious and . honest men in various countries are obliged to live thus in order to earn their daily dread. i j If the life of the miner is repulsive, then it has one important character istic which should belong to penal la bor. Men should not bo allowed I to commit crimes in the expectation of expiating their offenses by a penod of agreeable labor. The dread , of punishment is the great drawbackjon men of bad principle's. The more they dread it the better will be their conduct. If the labor of the mines be repulsive to criminals, the prac tices of criminals are equally repul sive to all good citizens. It accords well with the u eternal fitness; of things" that the most repulsive la bors required by an advanced civili zation should be performed by those who have offended most heavily against that civilization. B. 'Richmond Whig. j A Point iTlilck Slionia be Dtily ( on ; sldered.- 'f In considering the struggle thaE the whites of the negro-ridden StsteS of the South are making to escape from mongrel rule and to re-establish civil ization, the Northern 'people should bear in mind the fact that it is not simply because of the color or j the ignorance and incompentencv of the blacks that this struggle is made,! but because the governments they admin. .1 : ister are notning less man conspira cies," under tne semblance of law, against all the property-holders. The whites hold the property, and as the carpet-baggers and negroes can not directly take it from them, thev so abuse the taxing power as to wring irom tne tax-payers enormous sums. The money thus raised is their plunder fund. ' By this sort of legerdemain they actually enjoy the usufruct of all the property in the State. They get much more from it than the own ers do. In this way it happens that the people who hold no property are enjoying, in the shape of high taxes, which they steal as soon as collected. the profits of all the property, hile me properiy-uoiaers get little ! or nothing. 1 j How long would Northern com mumties submit, to such a state of things ?- And yet many of theni ex press great amazement when they see among Southern people any display of sensitiveness in regard to the mat ter, lhey cannot, because they fwill not, understand now it is that edu cated whites, who own all the prop- erty and pay all the taxes, should ibe un willing to be ruled by ignorant and rapacious blacks, headed by carpet bagger adventurers and knavesJ If it was their case, they would not be slow in understanding this.

The car immediately halted, and Captain Butler walked td the" Tear 'platfprm, luuuwcu uia wue ana vne cnua.-f On reaching the' platform he fbupd a mulatto, named Gabriel Murrel sitting on the steps 0x1 the side where he ex pected to get out;' Caot.; Butler re quested the man-to" move, and pushed him slightly with his hand. The mu latto got up and stood on the plat form while Capt. Butler descended to the ground and put out his hand to his wife to help her. down. Aabe did this Micheal Murrel, a brother j of Gabriel, violently pushed Mrs. Butler down, while Gabriel himself' drew a pistol, pointed it at Capt; Butler, and drew the trigger. The weapon ' was discharged and the ball, speeding on its terrible mission,1 struck Capt. But ler immediately over the left temple and penetrated "tq.the brain, Capt: ' ButW' staggered back and fell heavily to. 'the . earth, the blood pouring in torrents from the wound. Agohized beyond expression at beeing her husband so .brutally, shot down, Mrs. Bunler screamed in the most heart-rending manner and called for help. Several gentlemen and a num ber of colored people rushed to the spot to render all possible assistance. Messrs. Hyams, Roulette, Sturman and llayner, together with three col ored men, picked up Captain Butler, who was in. convulsions, and carrid him to his residence at the corner of Greene and Marbury streets, where he was soon waited upon by Drs. II. F. and A. S. Campbell, L. D. and De Saussure Ford, Robt. Eve, and others. The fiendish assassin, as soon as he committed the foul deed, jumped from the platform of the car on the side opposite tp that where he was first sitting, threw down his pistol, an Allen & Whellock six shooter, and ran towards the northwest corner of Broad and Marbury streets, with the expectation, evidently, of making his escape. But in this he was dis appointed. At the time the shooting occurred policeman W. D. Tinley was walking down the pavement on the south side . of Broad street, a short distance, below Marbury, and ; on hearing tho shot wheeled quickly and saw the mulatto running. He immediately gave chase, pull ed out his pistol ami ordered Mur rel to stop. As the latter paid no heed to this Mr. Tinley fired. The ball passed between' MurrePs lips, slightly cutting them.; The mulatto then turned,; muttered some indis tinct words, and put his right hand in one of his pockets. Thinking that he was about to draw a pistol, Mr. Tinley cocked his own weapon and levelled it at ' the mulatto's breast. The scoundrel then threw up both hands as a sign of surrender, and was taken in charge by Mr. Tinley. In the meantime Policeman John Sharp had rushed into the laree crowd of negroes who had gathered from all quarters and .seized Michael Murrel. The fellow seemed disposed to resist, but the officer promptly brought ; his club down with force upon the head of the mulatto, who .then quietly yielded. Chief Christian, who had reached the spot, ordered the police men to take their prisoners as rapidly as possible to the Guard y. House. Policemen Tinley, Sharp and Cotter immediately moved down Broad street with the prisoners and hurried them to the City Hall. At the corner of Monument and Broad Gabriel Mur rell said to Policeman Tinley, "If I get out of this scrape it will : make Christian of me." a 1 his was all he said on the route. m - m .mm.' inese words would seem to amount to a confession of guilt and was so looked upon. At the Guard . House, however, both asserted their inno cence. They were locked np in a cell, but a rumor being in circulation that a movement looking to the lynching of at least one of tne prison ers was on foot, it was deemed safest to transfer them to the jail for safe keeping. They ..were accordingly taken down to that building, and Tturned over to Peputy Jailer, A. B. Crump, theJailer,Mr. Bridges, being absenj. The prisoners were placedin separate. cells and locked up- There was great excitement in the commu nity when the report of the outrage was circulated, and many of the old est and coolest heads were in favor of summary V punishment for the scoundrel who committed the terrible act. A large number of citizens as sembled ground Capt. Butler's resi dence, an expressing the deepest coh concern in regard to the occur rence and hopes for the wo tin- ded manV hopes were filled. The recovery. But these not destined to be fu! physicians used every enort in tneir power valuable a life, but to preserve so God willed it otnerwise. At 9 o'clock it was evi dent that Capt. Butler was sinking rapidly,- and Rev. Mr. Kramer, of the Episcopal Church, of which " the wounded jman wasa member, offered up fervent prayers jn h v behalf, Anxious friends hoveied around wiping the face of the sufferer and ministering to him as much ias pos-. sible.

' The men composing the crowd were cool and determined. They were all armed, r - Gabriel Murrel, it - was said, was considerably under the influence ; of liquor at the time the shooting took place, while Michael also seemed ; to have taken a drink or two. This terrible tragedy has created a deep feeling throughout the commun ity. So cold-blooded and unprovoked a murder was never before, perhaps, committed. '. Capt. Butler was a gentleman high ly esteemed and respected by all class es of our citizens. A devoted husband, a fond father, and a useful citizen, he has left a void which cannot be filled. 3 O'Clock, A. M. Just as we are going' to press we learn that the crowd decided, upon the sworn testi mony of a witness who saw the deed committed, that Michael Murrel was the guilty party, and accordingly shot him to pieces. Gabriel was placed in the Guard House. Our information obtained early in the evening was as stated in the premises. The grasshoppers are getting amaz ingly bold in Iowa. One of them took possession of a front seat in the orchestra of the Dubuque Theatre the other night during the oratorio of "Nebuchadnezzar," and a policeman had to be summoned to eject him.
