“WHITE AGAINST BLACK Intimidation of the Negroes in the South. The Situation Viewed from a Radical and Conservative Standpoint. DREAD OF THE FEDERAL TROOPS. President Grant and the Civil Rights Bill. General G. A. Sheridan’s Views. Jn view of the present complications and dis- terbances existing in the Soutvern States a rep- sesentative of the HERALD yesterday calied upon Genera! G. A. Sheridan, ai the Filth Avenue Hotel, ‘who is now contesting the seat Jor Congressman at large for the State of Louisiana, in order to ob- tain his views and opinions thereon, and also in Fegard to the probabilities Mkely to arise and bring about a war oi races between the whites and negroes in the ef rt of the former to obtain the supremacy, The General, in the course of the conversation which ensued, and in answer to the RBuMerous qnestions put to him, expressed him- se)! very freely upon the subject. He said:— ‘The present conflicts which are occurring be- tween the negroes and whites I look upon as merely arising from certain Idcal causes and difl- © eulties, They are gotten up, too, by designing | ‘and cunning politicians in the interest of the radi- ¢ais, and with a view, I wink, to give thé iedéral Boatborities an excuse to send into the various | ®tates soldiers to intimidate the people and thereby influence the elections in the radical in- Verests, Beyond this they are of no significance &t the’present moment, except that they to some extent foreshadow what must inevitably occur in evevy Southera State where the blacks are in the Majority, aud, therefore, to a very large extent, the governing body. The time has preity vearly ome, in my opinion, for the white portion or tke population in the South to assert themseives, | they would not see their property depreciated and their best interests sacrificed beyond remedy, their States depopulated of white people and the general prosperity and welfare ot the whole com- munity overthrows. It is no longer possible tor | the South, and tefer more specially to the State | et Louis.ana, to tolerate the rule and government Of corrupt officials, the mere creatures of the fed- ra} powers, and the ignorant and overvearing INKOLENGES OF THE BLACKS, who, under the patronage and with the assistance ef the radicals and admipistrativa officials, BOW possess a majority in the Legislature and fill @ther positions of importance, wich they turn to agecount, by means of robbery and plunder, to secure riches for themselves, irrespective of the wellure of the people, on whom they Mmpose heavy taxations im order that tneir rapacity and greed may be = satis- ed. The resuit of this state of things, J Jonger allowed to continue, would, in my opinion, @ompel the withdrawal of capital, and, to a cer- tain extent, the withdrawal also of a large part of the white population, who would feel that they had no protection ior their property apd no voice or interest in tne affairs of the State. Jn Mississippi, South Carolina and Louisiana, Whica are now the only three States wherein tue blacks are largely in tue majority and have unlim- Ned control, A SYSTEM OF RECONSTRUCTION most be inaugurated and the races separated by | well defined ailignments, Ido not anticipate that | tm the atiempt - the whites to carry out their geteimination of securing the government @i these States to themselves that any ab- selute and bioody conflict will ensue, for A thi.k that when the biacks see that tear iormer Masters, and those on Whom they now depend tor employment, are determined to, at all hazards, Feeure the reins Of government, they wilt accept the situstion and quietly give way. ‘There is an wumistakable resolve by all Soutnern whites to bave and to hold the government of the States, they will effect this peaceably, uf possivle, but surely. There may. perbaps, be 2 negro killed bere and there, wiicn wili have the tendency to cow the others into submission, but Ido not look for any open war. You see, the negrves are nota hting race, and when they see the whites have sally made up their miud for Dusiness they will Beep away from tbe polls and let matters assume thelr proper sha} Why, one bundred white men @an cow tive or six hundred biacks, und they mean to let them see that they have rights wnich they Mmtend to lock aiter and secare. Wherever tho Dlacks are in the majority there will always be trouble, unless the whites assert themselves. | Where the latter have the control of affairs quite a@ different state of things exists and prosperity ensues to von races. ‘This is what we want to see in Louisiana. THE FALL CAMPAIGN. It may not be, perhaps, at ‘he elections this fall that we shall secure our enus, but if the Jederal ernment will only jet us alone and keep away 8 troops I think tne conservatives or democrats, oF, as we now cali them, the White man’s party, will make a clean sweep of the present | corupt government srom top to bottom. | We shall clean out Kellogg ana _ tie whole of the scalawags under him, both black and White, We are sure to have a large majority, as in 1872, if a 1air count is bad. And if Kellogg and his returning board attempt to count us out and their own friends in, Why we snali simply rise and turn | him and them out. 1 course i! the fedoral autiori- ties send in the military this programme may pos- mbiy not ke carried out to its full extent, for we can. not fight the whole United States. What we want ie to be let alone. We should then soon right @urselves and have matters constructed on a | oper basis, for if we once get a wajority in the gislature We would proceed at once to a recon- gtraction, and the Orst act performed would be the impeachment of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor, and there ig but Nitie doubt rhat their final overthrow would thus be obtained. There ‘Will, Unquestionabiy, be an attempt, and possibly @ FuCccessiul One too, on the part of Kellogg's re- turning Board of Canvassers tu count their own frends in whichever way the elections turn out, and if such tactics are pursued how can we help aelves unless we, as it were, rise against him kind of revolution. Tit i nave said, will he the result of any such attempt ou lus part, and | }, 13 is possible SOMB ONE MAY BE HURT and some blood spilt; but the whires must and will get coutrol of the State. There is, I Know, a jarge Majority of blacks in the State who would per- haps follow the lead of their more intelligent and designing leaders and vote the radical ticket without fnowing what they were doing or in tact caring at ail avout politics. Tvese, | think, will, when they sée how things are likely to turn out, frat time from go to the poils for lar of the consequences tuat might emsue to them. In fact, | say frankjy that they will be notified that the whites intend to carry tue electtons successfully ‘et all bazards, They will. perhaps, then keep away, but it they tarn out in anything lske numoers why t think sufficient force can be shown by the whites to cow them into subjection and thus compel them to allow us to assume our undoubted rignts. It may be that we snall have to wait to carry out our intensions in regard to secoriog the supremacy to their fullest extent until next yeur, but we snail J} think, make great strides towards that end @uring the coming elections, GRANT'S CHANCES FOR A THIRD TERM. Next year there will, of course, be a great strag- , Jor the ioderal ofice-holders will bring all eir influence and corrupt practices—of which they are masters—to bear in order to Te-elect General Grant, as through him alone can they hope to perpetuate their tenore of office. Whether he ald be supported to the extent of a re-election 40 the South, in my mind, depends upon one or wo contingencies, He will, let me say, in the Place have no dificulty in obtaining a re- Domination, ior the Southern delegates, who cast 248 votes in the Republican Nominating Conven- tion, or nearly @ third of the entire number, sre all-powerful. The after matter of return- the election of delegates to the Electoral College is a different thing altogether. And as the delegates to the Convention would be nat- erally either those who now hold office or their creatures, it can easily be seen that the whole of number woula be cast for his renomina- Yon, As to the election, of course the radical holders woula vote ‘tor him, and some large car at the pera ty whether the tb ead wonld si um is wpon bis action in regard to aetanbe mer TAR CIVIL RIGHTS DILL wt it ag both houses next year. Should he veto Jt, if It is made to contain the school clause, then J think the remainder of the republican party and a’so the liberals would deciare for bim, bus Rot otherwise, Again, if he shouid not be rehom- imated by the Repubitcan Convention, but should fun OD an independent ticket, and providing he vetoes the Civil Rights bill, as altuded to above, he will_be supported by the liberals and democrats ofthe South. My firm beitefis that he is seeking another term of office, and that he will endeavor ; Heed, @ republican, or, as tt is termed in the | put on our shoulders by Jormer State adininistra- | call us—shall have a majority of 20,000 votes. to seoure the ge of the dill without the school clause, which would, I think, satisty ‘white people in the South und tne blacks done wee the latter are well cnough satistied with AORO0I POM.

In this event he would receive support of the and liberals if renominated by th: republican party, and ifhe conciudes to run, as | nave previously said, on an independent or democratic licker, ne would be upheld by the Itherals and democrats. Shouid he pot, bowever, prevent the school clause from becoming a part of the bili, be would be 0} posed by all the whites of every party, except by those hoiding offices under bis control aid pa ronage. It must be remembered, too, that the amount of power he can bring to bear, should he eonclude to seek a third term Of oifice, is exceedingly great, and should not be underestimatoa, To break the Eo and infvence of the tederat oMciais in the jouth, who are primarily the eause of all our Uoubles, is one Oo! the ends the whites have in view, for itis by their means tuar all the corrup- tion has been brouzht about. ‘They come down South, get into office stay a few years, suddenty become rich to the amouut of $200,000 or $390,000, and then go away, North or West, leaving the State they go irom thus much the poorer. 1 tell you, this has all got to be corrected, and it | Will be, you wiil see, ‘fhe whites must have the upper hand of the ignorant negroes, and they wiil get it, too. Sw: A Republican Opinion. Mr. A. P, Field, the Attorney General of Louisi- ana, wio is HOw staying at the.St. Nicholas Morel, in this city, yesterday expressed bis opinion to a representative of the HeRaup in regard to the © present condition of affairs in his State, and also in respect to the probabilities of a conflict between the whites and blacks in the South. It will be seen ; from the account published below that Mr. Field does not anticipate any war of races, alibongh, unless the federal soldiers are called in to protect j the negroes duriug the eiections which take place | im November next, there will be, he expects, con- | siderable rioting and perhaps bloodshed, for he looks forward to the carrying out of we policy, already inaugurated by the whites, of intimidating she negroes, and thus keeping them away from the polis. His views are, however, better expressed in bis own language. Mr. Field is, as wili be no- South, a radical, lowsi— 2 idust certainly say that our State is just now | m @ very unfortunate condition, especially as to financial affairs, We have been saddled with an He states bis opinions aa {ol- | Immense debt by the misrule of iormer govern- ments, especially that of the Warmoth party; but 1 think we are now cuming to see a little light | through our troubles in this respect. We have already thrown out by act of the Legislature some $6,000,000 of fraudulent claims, and we are cou- | testing otters amounting to over thatsum. The fonding system, which baa been authorized, is | now being carried out aiso, and, { think, | aiter a short while we shail be in a position io say that our debts are not larger than the State is ca- pabie of paying. Of course alithe trouble taus tions bas had the effect of preventing capital com- ing into the State, and has in a great measure re- tarded our progress. Ibis, however, graufying to us to know that our crops are at least a quarter more this year than last, and with greater security and under a just government, such as the present, we may expect to attain increased prosperity. I do not see any reason to look forward to A WAR OP RACES, as these little conflicts that we hear of merely arise irom local jealousies and faction quarrels among the leade1s. No doubt some of tnese lead- ers seek to get up these fights for the purpose of | serving their own selfish enas; but they possess | no significance wiatever as far as giving auy in- { ication of a general rising on the part of | the blacks to eifect the driving out of the Whites, such a thing is not likely to occur for many reasons, the first and all important one | being the nacural instinct and Jeeling on the pars of the negioes, who are tuily aware that it is to | the capital invested by the Wuites that they owe their living and prosperity. There is, however, a desire on the side of the white people to secure the government to themselves, To effect this they Propose to carry on a system of INTIMIDATING THE NEGROES So as 10 prevent tnem coming to the polls during | the elections in November next. This they may effect, if not in turn prevented, so tar as ww keep | the biacks from voting aud secure to themseives the return by the poil commissioners or super- | Visors Ol @ majority in their favor. This sort of fraud, however, will not go to serve thew; tur the returning board, or @nal board of canvassers, whenever they have evidence of suca intimidation, will torow out the whoie vote in sach district where it is shown to have been practised, Should the negroes attempt to vote they wil, | am led to believe, be torced away by iorce of arms from tue polls, uniess they are protected. To do tis we should bave to appeal to the President ior aid aud request him to send in FEDERAL TROOPS, 80 that the people wishing to vote might exercise their undoubted privilege. Some have said that the disturbances which Dave already occurred nave been and are gotien up by politicians working Jor the express purpose ol aiding the Kellogg government aud to afford @n excuse for an application being mude for assist- ance to tne federal autnorities, Such is not the | case, however. There is no necessity for any such tactics, The whites themselves have already furnished all that 1s needful in that regara, but I do not expect the President wiil interfere at all. A demand, however, has aiready been sent to Wasnington asking ior aid, as trouble may be loosed for {rom the whites belonging to the democratic or white man’s party, who lave asserted their tutention of enancipating them- selves irom any infivence or participation on tite part of the negroes in the affuirs of goverament, They are even going #0 lar as to say that they will secure their object and aim at ail hazard, even by WADING IN BLOOD. Should the federal soldiers not be sent to the protection of the biacks, the resuit will pecessi- rily be some rioting at the poils, although as the negroes are not @ fighting people they will give up and stay athome. But 1 do not see how this wul help them any, for tie reason I have stated, Shonla the white league gain a majority ol the Legisiature, their first act would be to OVERTHROW THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT and seize aid distribute the offices among the leaders, whtch would be equivalent to a return 10 the corruption and thieving tiat was so notorious under those which preceded the election of Gov- ernor Kellogg, For aJl this, if we can but secure & good, honest election, we—the raaicals, as they The manner in which this white man’s party are now roceeding and intend to act is shown clearly in heir party newspapers, and reflects but siuail credit upon the inteiligence they so largely boast of *They openly boast of their intention to win the day at all and every hazurd. We shail see how they succeed. THE PRESIDENTIAL QUESTION. As to the question of President Graut seeking & renomination [ am scarcely prepared to speak, lor itis so far off I have not turned my attenticn to | that subject. Should be, however, desire it, 1 see no reason why he should not be renominatew and re-elected. He would, I think, be supported by all the republicans in the South; for we know that is policy 1s settled and fixed, while if we choosd any one else we shall have to find out what at will do, The Civil Rights bill I do not thiox wil come into the question as to whether General Grant shall be given another term of office, for I do not think it will ever pass the Hotes, aud Lado not see why it should. THE NEGRORS ARB SATISFIED as they are, and are not at all anxious for more [pdb than they already possess, They alli—at least the better class and those who are thinkers among them—know that they now have their aep- arate schoois, and would prefer to send their chil- dren to them rather than to those where the whites go. The trouble is now only in the country Parishes, where the wuites wiil not see to it that the blacks get any education at ail. In tact they often throw obstacles in the way, and burn down the schooilouses even, How much worse would It bdel the blacks were giveg the right to send their children to mix with white children in school, There would be confusion worse con- jounded, The Story of the Georgetown Battle— The Ridge Spring Emeute and the Edgefield Trouble—The Negroes Over- awed by the ucasians—A Temporary Peace, COLUMBIA, 8, C., August 22, 1874. The extreme summer heat, since my letter of the 14th inst., seems to have sent the blood of the people almost to @ bolliug over degree in several localities in this Ssate. The week has been one of unusual excitement, a number of serious collisions between political factions having occurred, while others have been threatened, more dangerous in their menacing, and some remain to be deter- mined, These events indicated that the scenes of violence considered probable at that time were nearer at hand than had been surmised, During the past week I have travelled through the country between the North Carolina line and this city, and find, without exception, among the conservatives there, as well as here, and so on down to the coast, but one expression regarding the sitnation; that is, ‘if the confict has to take place to determine whether this is a ‘white man’s country,’ a8 we believe it will sooner or later, let it come now; we are prepared for it.” This decla- ration ia not made covertly, but, during the ex- citement attending the Edgefield county troubles not yet settled, but somewhat allayed, was the ex- Pression most frequently to be heard in the cars, the hotels and on the street corners, THR RECENT DIFFICULTIES Along, she Ravaanah River, gh Ad SMAE WATe BAC | Mitted within its ovauds since the operations of | have appeared, and it is Dot at ali probable tnat | | instances where a lew companies were organized | He states that he barely escaped with bis jue, | and 1s a.ivised taat ii he returns he does so at the comtcal'y dubbed, “The Edgefield war and the campcign at Kidge Sprinz,” have not been mag- Bided by we lavish use of the telegraph, as Wes the case in Mississippi, and other places, The Meagrehess of the despatches in relation to chem indicated @ certain, | will not say suspicions, de- Sil? not Lo overdo the matter. The Régeficid county troubles were entirely of a diferent nature than those that occurred at very ; nearly the same time at the opposite or northeast- | ern boundary of the State—the “Georgetown War.” ‘This last named was a fight between two colored factions of the republican party, each de- strous Of securivg the ascendancy in the Legisia- ture, uelther Of which indicates the least degree or promise of reform, Nor were the Edgefield riots of the same nature as those at Timmonsviile, | | , in Darlington county, where ex-Congressman B, F.

Tis town has a colored man jor Intendent or Mayor, who caused a series of Tesoiutious to be passed by the Town Council cou- ciiatory in their import, Which he sent to Augusta, This ailayed the excitement only temporary. It Spread rapidly among tue colored peopie in every direction, and rumors were im circulation that the city of Augusta was in danger of an attack. The whites made preparations for pro- tecuon, A day later the trouble brone out afresh at Kiuge Spring, a few miles distant from Hamburg, where @ trivial quarrel had arisen between a white and biack man. Upon being noti- fed, the ciuizeus of Augusta sent forty-five stands Of arins, escorted by wirty resolute men armed with sharpe’s rifles, to their neignoors over the river, It bad been reported that the blacks Would | seize the urms when they reached the Curolina side, but there was no further indication that auy such atiempt would be made. immediately the number of volunteers was increased by arrivals 1rom both sides of the river, and as they are well organized and were officered long ago, @ danger- ous Jorce ts constituted in the event of an out. | break, Up to tils time no armed negro militia | any Will, ‘Luere is @ regiment in ine county, one Of the Officers states they have not a round of animanition and have never sasembied, except ia but | for arill purposes, TRAINS SEARCHED, Several of the republican politicians having | taken tie cars for Columbia while the movemen's above described were in progress, tie conserva- tives conciuded their errand Was lor aid; they then fren guards along the roads and stationed a cavy lorce at Baiesburg, where the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Katlroad intersects the Bagefield live; Mempers O! this force searched the traius gomg south, which were detained for fiiteea minutes, and, noarma or mihua having been found, they passed on without any furtuer auboyauce.

This “Kilkenny cat” fignt terminated in a general riot tn tue conven- tion, tliree men being shot severeiy and overs wounded, At the time of the méice Jones was at his resi- dence, which was besieged during the night by a mod of the Bowleyites, the male portion bein, armed With guns and reinforeed by their wives ani daughters armed with axes, rice hooks and other weapons.
