Another White Man Shot by a
Xegro.
TIe Fiend still at Large-A Brutal At
tempt at Murder.
The shooting of a white man by a negrotook
place near the toll-gate on the plank road, about
a half mile from the city, about seven o'clock on
Saturday evening last, the circumstances of which
are state 1 to be "of a very outrageous and fiend
ish character. Two brothers, Ben. and William
V hite," .young men living near thetoll-gate, were
on thoir way home from tli city, when they
were, mel by a negro w ho came around a fonce
corner; i-nmediately in their front, and passed
hurvieilJy between the two, brushing them as h -i did
so. Oner of them remar ked to the negro not to run
over him, or perhaps "you had better ruu over
me," aiid passed, the nogro making no reply, but
walked a few feet and fired at the two, the baq
from the weapon striking Ben. White in rear of
the right hip -passing out in front and into the
right hjrtiHl above the thumb, lodging in the fore
finger,! when it was extracted, by the physician
Cai!e l in to dress the wound. The bene of the
foreiingej was broken. The wound is a very
dangerous one, but it is hoped it will not prove
fatal After doing the deed the black fiend jump
ed into the woods skirting the road and nothing
more was .seen of him, and he will not pefnaps
even be brought to justice. Altogether it was a
most unwarranted and bloodthirsty transaction-

At half-past seven., o'clock Mayor Shackleford
arose and, in a few remarks, introduced General
Howard to Uie audience, when the General step
ped forward and addressed them, in the abstract
follows :
general Howard's remarks.
Tlie speaker introduced his remarks by an ex
planation of the character and course of organi
zation of the bureau of which he is the head.
He explained the law organizing the bureau, his
own connection with it, and stated that it aro'se
out of the necessity, and the determination of
the President, of maintaining the freedom of the
negro. The bureau has organized for this pur
pose. It is designed to continue -Jbr only one
year from the termination of the? war, and the
law assigns this limitation to it. There is no
disposition to encroach upon the province of the
states themselves, in the establishment and ac
tion of the bureau. It is intended to securo the
guarantee freedom to the negro, and to assume
the management of the entire question in all its
aspects, and tlie bureau would not anywhere
continue longer than the necessity for it existed.
No injustice w as intended to be . done through it
to anybody, and if any has been done it has been
through official misconduct.
The speaker next adverted to the support of
abandoned lands, and pointed out the intention
and policy of the government to restore these
lands as soon as it should be possible to remove
the negroes who are upon them elsewhere.
People, he said, are now disposed toTook des
pondently upon the condition of affair but they
should avoid this and encourage themselves with
the "certain prospect of future prosperity. Mutual
confidence and harmony must be the essential
principles in the work of restoration, aud in the
solution of questions that are now pressing. He
was glad to see the recuperative energy of the coun
ty so extensively manifested. It is tho true course
to restore prosperity. Harmony must extend it
self to the relations to exist between thefreedmen
, i and his employers, lt is the? purpose of the gov
vi i . .

of labor naturally produce a irou
rassments, but under the new system which is
getting into operation there can be no doubt of
he fulrdevelopment of the varied resources of

prosperous states of the whole union. Let us
approve these happy anticipations of the future
to the troubles of tlie present that surround us,
and bo hopeful of the good time coming.

embodying the greater portion "of the remarks
reported above as delivered to the citizens, he
advised themfirst to be respected, and respect
themselvesahd each other; to be true, honest,
sober, law-abiding and christian in character and
disposition ; to strictly obse ve the marriage re
lation, anefhot to harbor the spirit of revenge.
Treat the former master and every white man
with still greater respect and courtesy than ever
before. Observe contracts made by themselves
Some people, said he, might tell you that the
first and greatest question with you is the suf
frage question, and others that ihe educational
question is the one demanding your first con
sideration; but I will say to yon that the greates
and only one that should interest you now is
labor question. Labor, and labor hard;
dustrious and frugal, and acquire property,
standing, and after this is reached you can tlien
turn your attention fully to these next consid
tions. After you hare reached both the la
and the educational right, then will come the po
litical right, but this is last.
There is ample time for it, said the speaker.
You have rights. You have a right to life and
property. You Enjoyed one of these when in
slavery the right of life. You now are given the
opportunity of getting the latter by working for
it, and you should not let it pass. He pointed
out the position occupied by the freedmen in this
state, and all the states -of the south. He be
lieved they could live here, and in doing so live
peaceably and harmoniously with the whites.

-Julian Mitchell, Esq., ofi this city, left here
some time since, on an important mission to
Washington city, in reference to the recovery and
speedy restoration to the owners of the valuable
lands on our sea island These lands, compris
ing the finest sea island cotton soil in the world,
has been, as, most of our readers know, in pos
session of the-Freedmen's Bureau, and it was. for
the purpose of getting theni out of that institu

of their property and go to work, that induced

question of at once admitting the representa
lives 01 tne soutnem states, or Keeping tnem, op
most of them, for a loagor period in probation;
it is not probable that the same proportions will
be preserved. From the present indications all
the rebel states except, perhaps, Texas, will have
gone through the forms of reconstructing their
constitutions and electing members of both
houses of congress before die second Monday of
December, when the session opens. Should al
the states now without representatives, whose
senators and representatives are yet to be elected,
chose democrats opposed to universal suffrage,
as it is to t expected they will do, and should
they all he admitted, tlie senate will then contain
iorty-seven repuni;cans ana iwenty-seveu uno-
crats, and the house if representative
contain one hundred and " fifty republicans
ninety-two democrats. : . ... ,
