One of the most foul crimes
ever attempted in Davidson

most fatal results.
The little three-year-old
daughter of Mr. "Buck" Hin

in front of an open window.
During the night its parents
were awakened by its cries
and on investigation found
that some fiend had slipped
up to the window, reached
through and stabbed the little
girl in the breast. Mr. and
Mrs. Ilinkle heard the man
run away, but didn't see him,
and have no idea as to who
committed the foul deed.
The wound inflicted was
made by a knife, and while
serious is not necessarily fa

The following letter has been re-
ceived fr. m a gentleman in the lower
part of our county, giving an ao
count cf seme cf the doctrine that
tbe Mormon elders are presenting
to some of our people. As for the
name, we will withhold it. Follows
ing is bis letter :
'Oa Snnday, August 21st, Mr.
George Gorman was immersed by a
Mormon elder for the remiesion of
his dehd wife's sins, who has been
dead about twenty-five years. The
Mormons told Mr. Garmon that be
cause his wife was a Methodist and
was not immersed, she was in hell
and if be would be immersed for
her that would make the atonement
for her aud bring her out of hell
Mr Oorman, with an eye blinded
to the true Uod,and with all faith
in the sbiep tiiaf, Joe Smith,
the Mormon god, was immersed for
her on tbe 8unday abuye stated.
This is the third immersion and as
there was so much water on that
occision and a good dfal of sand in
it we think this will do for him
now.
And as to revelations Mr. Garmon
says be has had one. The Lord has
told him that he will eventually
take this country by storm and aa
Mr. Garir.on is a widower the wo- ;
men especially ar? getting scared.
Tbey say they don't know the extent
of bis Palanic irfluenoe. Mr. Gir
mon says tha when they laid their
hands on him for tbe reception of
the Holy Ghost he certainly received
it. But we think the brother was
muttiken. lie has teter received
anything yet ixcept 9 bad cold, lint
as to bin atonement we have onlv
this to say. The greatest misfortune
tLut ever came to Dives was that
either Abraham or Lizarus was not
a Mormon. Had they been tbey
would not only have given him
water but would have brought him
clear out of hell and bidden bim go
and be Immersed iu a river of water.
And as to his taking this country,
we will say Mr. G inn on is aa elo
quent speiiktr and much deulnient
is possible for him to do.

Atlanta, Sept. 1. The storm
which has swept over south"
east Georgia for the past two
days, has put six counties
under water ana paralyzed
railroad and telegraph coromu
nieation in that part of the
State. Armies of railroad
men are at work on all lines
affected, but are making poor
progress as the rain continues.
Many trains from Atlanta and
the North and West are at
Tenuille, Ga., unable to move.
A night train on the Central
of (ieorgia ploughed through
the three feet of mud to reach
that place last night, and the
paesHcgers ara here as guests
of the city.
Eight inches of rain Ml at
Tennille in IV hours and the
wind reached a velocity of 00
miles an hour, Bridges were
wrecked and houses and trees
blown down, but so far as
known no lives were lost. The
damage to bridges and roads
in Washington county alone
is $15,000.
Atlanta received a touch of
the storm today. The wind
reached a velocity of 25 miles
and the rainfall was very
heavy.

In bis epceeh at Monroe on Tues
day, Mr. John D Ifella'my, stated
in Robeson county, Mins Britt, a
white lady teacher, had to waik
seven miles to get a negro school
committeeman to Bign her voucher
for the money ebe had earned.
This is not all tbe indignities to
which white people are subjected,
for Mr. Bellamy added :
"Another white lady in Robeson
county had to stand au examina
tion before seven buck negroes and
not one of them ever ollerod her a
seat. In auother township a negro
committeeman took the chair iu a
white lady's school and bossed it.
We will not stand this, and I warn
the negro, for many of them do not
want this, I warn bim if he con
tinues we will put it down. Ruee!l
is vile. He "elected, not a quiet
and inoffensive negro, to put for
ward, but a mean one, Jim Young,
whom he himself had publicly pros
ecuted in Wilmington for perjury.
This man he put on the board that
ooutrold the deaf, dumb atid blind
institutes, be made him fertilizer
inspector, and then, turning donn
oorupeteht white mon and two re
spectable negroes, be made him
colonel of a regiment, all because
Young has idiot nee with the ne
groes, and will use it for Russell. "
We do not expect these things to
excite indignation in the breasts of
those white men who are getting
big salaries through negro support.
They have already sold their birth
right for a mess of pottage, and
would see every white teacher in
the State further humiliated in or
der to keep their jjbs. They are
even now running ov.r the Sla'e
apologizing for such ctf 'nces as Mr.
Bellamy mentioned and keeping
silent upon tbe greater outrages that
r.ave made the white women of the
country districts afraid to leave
their homes without protection.
Ojr appeal is to white men with
white hearts, who love their race
better than tbey lovo pie. They
compose tho rank and file of tho
white men of all parties. They
want decent government. They are
tired of tbe scandals, the elevation
of the negro, and the outrages that
charaoterizs the present rule. They
are laying aside party ties and com
ing together to restore White Su
premacy in their loved State. Ex

"Ho had the advantage of artes

"He had no advantage at all,"
retcrted the Secretary sharply.
He simply did his duty, and
looked after the health of his men
as he should. He ordered the
adoption of certain simple sani

they were obeyed. The result was
that he kept his great army corps,

Since their adruisrior. to citi.-n-
ship they have beeu el-cted ta leitb
branches of Cmgro-ii and i;pvr- oc
cupied almost every position under
State authority. They have con
trolled entire Mates, counties, und
municipalities, and in every in
stance their rule was marked bv
failure and ruin. It was a war
against property, intelligence and
respeetibility. The fyw years of
their misruls in the Sou'h will be
forever remembered in cur history
for their corruption, retro-jehn,
and will constitute a damnable blot
on thopo vho r.uttior.T -I it, nrd
