It is an instinct of fellow-feeling that the afflicted communities of tho South should refuse to foist upon each other such inflammable elements and that they should require the rufBans, whom they have bought otf, to leave -the South altogether. Nor is this nil.

Those leaders are equally in different to their own people and to us. They are a handful of bold ana semsn partisan gamblers, some seeking pillage and others power, but all having their minds fixed upon tne perpetuation ui thier possession of the Government, and in default or anomer revolution nuu civil war. Therefore violences is jusi what they want. It furnishes tnem pretexts. It enables them to prey upon the fears of the masses. It gives them pnw to nass more Bavonet acts ana Kuklux bills.

" ' ' ' ' ; 1 iAt a performance of a traveling me nagerie, at Bolton, England, lately, Iklaccarte, the lion tamer, gave his us ual performance, in" which he had to enter the cage of five lions. On all gen eral occasions heated bars of iron and iron scrapers are in readiness, . dui on this fatal evening the matter had t been neglected, xne i nve nous . were au powerful animals, and the unfortunate man on entering the cage noticed that a black-maned African lion, which had only so recently as. Monday last bitten his Hand, appearea very resiive. xx consequently fixed his eyes on it, and this in some degree diverted his atten tion from an Asiatic lion known by the name of Tyrant, against whom.: he had been cautioned oniy tnat morning to keep carefully to his instructions. It is necessary here to note that when performing lions are tamed there is a line drawn, or what is known as " the omce, in tecnmtai puraswiugy, which the beasts are tauernt to regaru that line as limit beyond whlcn tne performer must not pass, knowing, ij he does so, the consequences to be ex pected are most dangerous The pre sumption is that this line was over stepped, and Maccarte, who was attired as a Roman gladiator, was returning his fhlhion to its sheath, sunning, ne fell on the floor of the den. Tyrant faetpnpfl nn him. seizinar him bv the hauches.: and then the African lion fastened on his armless shoulder. Mac- rarto immediately called upon tne L-pprvuN for hem. and meanwhile to fire. .
