Theso accounts fed to the instrue- “fons kent to the United States Attorney and “fhe Marshal to proceed in future against all pifenders for a violation of Sec. 5,620 of the Re- vised Statutee. The attacks made npon Repub- licans were at the three stages of thelr cam- palzn, namely, at the primary clections for dulezates to the County Convention, at the Uunvention.andat nll subsequient meetingsof the vanpaign. The whole movement has been un- tier the personat direction and leadership of Earle and Darzas, and this was continucd open- Iy and without any diminution of activity aster their conduct had been formaily reported by o Committee of Republicans to Hampton. In July tast, when the colured Republicans of the county bewan to sssembleat the places desig- nated for meetings to select delegates to the ‘vunty Convention, they found L] ARMED MEN PICKETING THE ROADS, and [mmediately encountered thelr vpposition fo assembling. These men carried State arms supplicd by the United States, were winder mill- tary discluline, and acted under regnlar oflicers, Triey were recognized as members of the State Volunteer Militia, though fu these first opera- tions thev leit their uniform ot home. Later they boldly appeared fn uniform, At ol meetings they announced that the waite people of the State had declded that tho tepublican mectings should not be held, and 1hat all who attempted to keep the orzaniza- tou of that party alive should suffer for it. At une preeinet meetinggthe Chigirman, who had Just bailt n new house, was driven off upon the threat that If he vresided at the mecting hus lonse should be kmmediately burned. ‘The mectig was then scattered by the military company.

After these promises the Republicans calleda uvetlng fn the country, twenty wlies from the county-seat. Eurle nud Darzun, ot the bead of 253 armed men, appeared an the eround, sud demanded that the meceting should be called to order, us thev fntended to particlpate, As thelr dbections were not promptly followed, they nunounced that they wonld allow onoe hour withio which to call it to order, 1f it was not doue, then no meeting suould be held.
