THE UNITARIAN CONFERENCE, ‘The Causes and Cure of Intemperance— Discussion on Prohibition—The Con- gregational Convention. Sanatoaa, Sept, 17, 1874. ‘The Unitarian Conference met to-day at nine o'clock for devotional exercises, at which remarks were offered by Rev. Messrs. Lincoln, Stacy and Murray, and Mrs. Coleman and Miss Green, The Conference proper reassembled at ten o'clock, Hon. E. R. Hoar presiding. Prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Failey, of Brooklyn. The first paper presented for discussion was by Rey. J. H. Heywood, of Louisville, Ky. Subj “THE CAUSES AND CURE OF INCEMPERANCE.” After reviewing the evils arising irom intem- perance he proceeded to urge, as a radical cure, the building up of a sound character, He thought, however, that there was no universal panacea for the evil; that the cure must be gradual and educational, making the mind master of whe prysical power; in other words teaching self control. He favored temperance societies, and urged the withholding of the social glass of wine or punch. The use of wine and malt liquors was also condemned, as having a tendency to create an appetite for ardent alcoholic liquors. Though stimulants may be re- | quired by the aged or intirm, they were detri- | mental to the young and the vigorous, The auxtl- lary influence of prohibitory laws and of woman’s influence were touched upon. Wiliam B. Weeden, of Providence, R, L, spoke | in Opposition to the prohibitory laws, and the | ‘theory o! total abstinence, and offered a resolution that the prohibition laws were doing more evil than good. The discussion of the question was engaged in by Rev. W. 8. Heywood, of Hudson, | Mass.; A. R. Kennedy, of Toronto; Rev. J, B. | Green, of Chelsea, and Miss Green, of German- town, Pa. A resolution was reported and adopted to iabor for temperance. ‘The resolution was supported by the Vv. Bush, of Boston; Rev. W. 0. ite, of Keene, N. H.; Rev. J. J. Lincoin, of Wil- ton, N. H.; Rev. W. ii. Baldwin, o1 Boston, and Rev. J. H. Morrison, of Milton, Mass, ‘he Business Committee, to whom was referred Mr. Weeden’s resoiution, reported adversely, Mr. Babcock making a minority report. Atter consid- er; id debate the resolution was laid on the table. A paper entitled “Some Results of the Voluntary System of the Organization of the Congregation” ‘was read by the Kev. O, G. Ames, of Germantown, A resolution of sympathy with the Congrega- tional Cony ntion, which is to meet in New Haven in Octover, was offered by Rev. Dr. J. F.

CHARLES CLINTON, Auditor of Public Accounts, GOVERNOR GROOME, OF MARY- LAND. WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 1874. Your correspondent, being at Annapolis this afternoon, called upon Governor Groome at the | Executive Mansion, The Governor ts @ short, thick set man, with a very pleasing expression of countenance, and at the frst glance gives one the impression rather of an easy going country gentle- man than of asbrewd and active politician and chief magistrate of one of the original thirteen States, Inthe course of a brief conversation I mentioned the difficulties in Louisiana, which he seemed to avoid, as it were. He said tnat the deposition of the Kellogg government and the sub- | stitution of that of McEnery had been so sudden, | and the reports from the seat of the disturbance | 80 meagre, that he aid not feel at liberty in his | position to give an opinion which subsequent events might very materially modify or change altogether. He expressed himself guardedly upon the subject. He thought that Louisiana affairs were in a miserable muddle, and this had been brought about by the foolish action of President Grant and the criminal inaction of Congress at a time when the whole matter could | have been adjusted with credit to themselves and | | I unspeakable benefit to all classes in the State of Louisiana, There were lew instances where op- pression had been so bitter in its consequences as on that unfortunate State. The Kellogg govern- ment, aside from any question of tts legality, had crueliy made use of the power it had been enabled to aggregate to itself through the overshadowiag influence of the administration. Business was at a standstill, taxes were so high as to amount toa practical confiscation of property, and through the machinations ol scalawags and carpet-baggers, stirring up strife among their neighbors, lile had become almost a burden, Was it tobe wondered at that people goaded by such oppression should rise up ag One Man and shake olf the incubus that bore them down. The policy or the legality of their actions were questions upon which he did not offer an opinion. The action of President Grant, under the circumstances, he deemed absolutely aeces- Sary to preserve his own consistency. He had | again and again acknowledged the Kellogg gov- ernment, though apprised of its fraudulent char- | acter through the medium of a Congressional committee, and Congress had refused to relieve the citizens, though they had pleaded pite- ously for intervention and rescue. Congress had thereby given a quasi recognition to the gov- | ernment, and it would be an unexampled exiibi- | tion of inconsistency and tergiversation in the administration to withhold its support, now that | Kellogg and his minions were threatened with | annihilation. The Governor at times spoke with much feeling, but never seemed to forget the responsibility which devolved upon him as Governor oi Mary- land, and the importance which might be attached to his utterances while in that position, It was evident throughout the interview that his sympa- thies were with the oppressed people of Louistana, and that only oficial position prevented him from | characterizing more strongly the rdle played by the administration in the affairs of that State. GOVERNOR BROGDEN, OF NORTH CAROLINA. RALEIGH, N, C,, Sept, 17, 1874. Arepresentative of the HERALD sought Gover- nor Brogden to-day, to learn his views on the trouble in Louisiana. The reporter found the Gover- nor after office hours in his elegant rooms at the National Hotel, deep in the affairs of State, To | the reporter’s questions as to the Goyernor’s views of the situation, he unreservedly spoke of the Kellogg rule as @ gross usurpation which had been patiently borne for nearly two years by the people of Louisiana. The late uprising was the result of that usurpation, which he much deplored, The Governor said he recognized the natural right of revolution, but to be justified the oppressions must be grievous and intolerable, the danger imminent, and the emergency great. Governor Brogden then went into @ lengthy state- ment of his views of free government an& the “Tam,” be said, ‘for the Union, the constitution and the en- forcement of the Jaws, and for maintaining them in the face of all opposition, and this is a duty in- cumbent upon every citizen. After listening attentively to the Governor for some time the reporter browxht bim to tue point | ana asKe aithitted usurpation of the Kellogg men ?” GoverNnor—I do not. The people have no sym- |, pavhy with revolutionists, “What do you think of the present Congress in relation to this matter ?" GoveRNoR—I think Congress failed to do its duty ib not relieving the President from a heavy respon- sibility. compelled the President to recognize the Kellogg as a de facto government, and he cannot be ex- pected to stultify himself, The President will do his duty promptly and as fearlessly as ever here- tofore, “What should be the President’s policy in this emergency?” GovgeRNoOR—His true policy 18 to recognize the Kellogg government as heretofore, and sustain it. “Should he put the State under martial law t”’ GoveRNoR—Although I am opposed to the exer- cise of martial law as long as it can possibly be | avoided, yet, to guard against a conflict of author- ity and probably more bloodshed, I think it might be justifiable to imstiture martial law until ‘Con- gress can meet and take action In this matter, as Washington did in the celebrated whiskey riots, “Do you think the President ought to convene Congress in special session and throw the respon- sibility on it ?” GoveRNOR—The President will doubtless meet any responsibility in the line of his duty. Never- theless it might be expedient to call Congress in view of the extraordinary emergencies that may arise, “Would it not be hazardous in the present ex- cited condition of the public in Louisiana to send into that State the militia forces of other States GovERNOR—I do think it advisable to send such forces to that State at this time and quarter them upon the people, “Governor, do you think the true condition of the South, of the Southern mind and temper, has generally been fairly presented to the Presi- dent?” GoveRNoR—I fear it has not. WhileI have the utmost confidence in President Grant’s patriot- ism, Judgment and integrity, [think it unfortunate for the South that he has had no true representa- tive of public sentiment in the South in his Cabinet.

THE M’ENERY PROTEST, Governor McEnery held a council at the State House, which, alter long consultation and discus- sion, determined upon the following letter to be addressed to General Emory, embodying a protest and remonstrance against the position assumed by him in the private iaterview held with him last evening:— New ORLEANS, Sept. 17, 1874. General W. H, Emory, Commanding Department of the Gull, New Orleans :— NERAL—\We have the honor to submit that since our interview last night we have carelully considered the subject then iniormally discussed and have concluded to address you in writing, protesiing that there does not now exist in the State of Loutsiaua any insurrection against the government of Mcknery; that there is not im any part of the State of Louisiana any assemblage or aggregation of insurgents to disperse, and that the people of Louisiana are now peaceably at their respective abodes and quietly pursuing their usual vocations under the pro- tection of the law; that there is no trace or ves- tige remaining o1 the late usurpation of which Will- iam Pitt Kellogg was the head, and there is butone government in existence in the State of Louisiana, which is the government elected and chosen by the people in November, 1872, and legally installed 1m 1873, of which Jonn McEnery is Governor and D. B. Penn Lieutenant Governor. In all the parishes and throughout the State of Louisiana this gov ernment is recogsized and is supported and ad- | nered to and respected and obeyed by ube people, and 1s, both jure and de jacto, the government of the State of Louisiana in possession and in the actual exercise of all governmental functions, That if we are | compelled by the military force of the United | States—which we have neither the power nor the inclination to resist—to retire trom and to aban- don the governmental power and authority rignt- fully and in fact vested in in our, respective capacities, there 1s no govern- ment of the State which can take our place and that it will be necessary, iu some form and by some instrumentality, to tniuse life into the effectually dead and extinct usurping government, of which William P, Kellogg was head and chief, under the assumed title of Governor, Nevertheless, having been informed by you that no alternative was leit to us but to comply immediately with the proclamation of the President of the date of September 15, 1874, or subject ourselves and our people to the actual exercise of the mill- tary force, Which means war on the part of the government against a State, and the people of that State exhibiting no armed opposition and no hostility to the government of the United States, we invite your attention to the law aud the terms of the proclamation of the President. By article 4 of the constitution of the United States it is declared the United States shall, on application of the Legislature, &c., or the Execu- uve, &c., protect each State against domesiic violence, Apart of the authority which this article imposed upon the United States, which means necessarily the entire government, was imposed upon the President as the head of the government by the act of Congress of February 28, 1795 (Statutes at Large, vol. 1, p- 424.) You will perceive tnat while the constitu: tion (article 4) 18 @ guarantee by the United States to each State agaist domestic violence, the act of Congress restricts Executive interfer- ence to cases In which there is an insurrection in @ State against the government thereot. One of the rerequisites is un applica+ tion to the President. by tne Executive when the Legislature cannot be convened. The act of March 3, 1870 (sec. 1, Statutes at Large, vol. 2, p. 413) authorizes the President to employ such part of the land and naval force of the United States as shall be judged necessary to suppress insurrection in a State against the gov- ernment thereof, having first observed all tue pre- Tequisites of the law. Now, i any such application was made by Will. jam Pitt Kellogg he was not the Governor of Loutsiana., On Monday, September 14, 1874, he leit the State House, and retired to the Custom House, where he is now and has been continuously since Monday, and at nine o'clock on Tuesday the State House was in possession of the present exist- ing government. In order | that there | shonid be an insurrection in @ State against the government thereof, there must be @ government against which oppuaition aud insur- rection exist, which 18 not true now and has not been true in Louisiana at any time since nine | o’clock on Tuesday, September 15, 1874. But when all the other conditions exist, belore the President can employ any part of the land or naval forces he must, by prociamavion, command the insurgents to disperse aud ta rewro yeaceably ta thelr re: i—"vo you think the sympathy of the eonntry is with the McKnery party in view of the The action of the State and federal courts | These pro- | Y, SEPTEMBER 18, 1874.—TRIPLE SHEET. | Spective abodes within a limited time.

But, even ih a case where the necessary conditions exist—an insurrection in a State against the gov- | ernment thereo!, and a proper application to | the President—he cannot employ any part | of the land or naval force, until the exptration of the time limited, by him, in his proclamation. We distinctly announce to you, thatin any movement you may make to suppress Our government, there shall, lu no case, be interposed any armed or forcible resistance on our part to the military forces of the United | States under your command, We will seetey | the State House and other State property in this city until the appearance and occupation of the same by the authorities of the government of | the United States, when we shall retire, knowing we have surrendered the same alone to the govern- ment of the United states, JOHN McENERY, Governor. D. B. PENN, Lieutenant Governor, At six o'clock P. M., in accordance with arrange- ments previously mace, General J. R. Brooke, companied by Lieutenants Wallace and Roe, went tothe executive office at the St. Louis Hotel. Immediately upon the entrance of General Brooke, Governors McEnery and Penn, shaking | hands with him, introduced the three federal ofmicers to a number of prominent citizens present, Governor McEnery then stated to General Brooke | that he gave him possession of the State Capitol | and all other State buiidings witbin the limits of the city. General Brooke merely bowed in accept- address :— General BRooxE—As the lawful and acting Gov- ernor of this State, I surrender to you, as the representative of the government of the United | States, the Capitol and remainder ot the property | in this city belonging to the State. This surren- der is in response to a formal demand ot General Emory for such surrender, or to accept, as an alternative, the levying of War upon our aerernemnt by the military forces of the nited § States under his command, AsT have already said to General Emory, we have neither the power nor inclination to resist the government of the United States, tu you the guardianship of the rights and liberties of the people of the State, and I trust and believe that you will give protection to all classes of our citizens ruled and ruined by @ corrupt usurpation, presided over by Mr. Kellogg. Our people could bear the wrongs, tyranny, annoyance and insults of that usurpation no longer, and they rose in their might, swept it from existence and installed in authority the rightiui government, of which I am the head. All lovers of liberty | throughout — the Union must admit the Patriotism that aroused our people to act | as one man and throw off the yoke of this | odious usurpation. I know, as a soldier, you have but to obey the orders of the government of the | | United States; but I feet that you will temper your | military control of affairs with moderation and in | all things exhibit that integrity of purpose cnarac- teristic of olicers of the.army. I now turn over the State under my charge. JOHN McENERY. At the conclusion of this address General Brooke | Was seated inthe office and regutred from Lieu- | tenant Governor Penn a statement of all the rec- took possession. | Governor McKnery and his followers then with- | | sion of the military officers of the federal govern- | ment.

Marr held a long private interview with General Emory, at the St. Charles Hotel, be- tween half-past two and five P. M., during which a courier was despatched for General Brooxe, who, atter some time, appeared ana joined the conter- ence, the result of which is as lollows:— | _ Governor McEnery agreed to turn over the State | House and State property to General Emory. | Whe police will remain as now constituted, un- | der Mr. Baylon. | | i The city government will remain as now consti- tuted, it being in full force and eMciency. The State House, State property, &c., will be turned over by Governor McEnery this (Thnrsdaay) evening, about six or seven o’clock. It is not understood that the city is under mar- tial law, although under a military commander. POSITION OF THE G)VERNMENT. | ‘ | WasuINGToN, Sept. 17, 1874. | After tne vigorous action of the President yester- day, the determination not to allow General Emory to recogoize the insurgent government under any circums:ances, and to continue the preparation for suppressing the incipient rebellion, little else could be done | to-day. The President, however, gave the | Subject to-day his undivided attention. Rear Ad- miral Reynolds, Acting Secretary of the Navy, | telegraphed to Rear Admiral Mullany, Command- | | ing the North Atiantic fleet at Key West, by direction of the President, to ascer- tain what naval vessels were at that point. This information was asked for, as stated in last night’s despatches, for the | purpose of ordering @ force of men-of-war to New Orleans. Admiral Reynolds waited upon | the President this morning and reported that the Jollowing vessels were at Key West:—Colorado, flag ship, Captain Ransom; Worcester, Captain Whiting; Brooklyn, Captain Truxton; Canan- daigua, Captain Lowry; Dictator, monitor iron- clad, Captain Spicer; Shawmut, Commanaer | Howison, and the Kansas, Commander Hopkins. The Ussipee, Commander Ramsey, had been sent to | Samana Bay, St, Domingo, to relieve the Wa- chusett, which vessel was ordered to proceed to Key West, and was expected to arrive any hour, The only other naval vessels at that point are the Pawnee, hospital ship, and the dispatch vessel Pinta, commanded by Lieutenant Commander , Dyer. | After examining the list, the question of availa- | bility was discussed, and the result reached was that a despatch was sent to Admiral Mullany or- dering the Shawmut and Kansas to proceed imme- diately to New Orleans, The Wachusett was also ordered, in case she had arrived at Key West, but, failing that, the sloop-of-war Brooklyn, second rate, is ordered to sail also, The statement in circula- tion here that the Colorado was ordered is with- out foundation, that vessel’s draught of water being twenty-one feet, too great to permit her to cross the bar at the mouth of the Mississippi River. The Brooklyn draws seventeen feet, and can easily cross, The Wachusett and the two ves- sels positively ordered draw still less, and can cross during any condition of the tide or river. It is rumored among naval officers here to-night who are in the confidence of the authorities that the monitor tron-clad Dictator will also be sent to New Orleans. In case the Brooklyn takes the place of the Wachusett, it will make considerable difference in the strength of the force, as the former carries an armament of twenty guns, while the Wachusett carries but six and the other two vessels but three guns euch, The department ts extremely anxious that the Wachusett shall be sent, as the Brooklyn has been stationed at Key West ever since tne yellow fever appeared there. The Kansas and Shawmut have only just arrived at Key West and are wholly iree from all suspicion of the expedition, The Gettys- burg, Lieutenant Jones commander, at the Navy Yard here, received orders to prepare for sea im- mediately, An extra force of mechanics was put upon the vessel to get her machinery in perfect order, and to-night the work is proceeding so that she will be ready to sail to-morrow noon. She has taken on coal sufficient to supply the other vessels | ordered to New Orleans, | Colonel Stanley, commanding the Twenty-second | infantry, 1s now on court martial duty, and if bis regiment is ordered South he will not be able to | join it for several days, It is understood that no orders have been sent interrupting the move- ment of the naval forces, as they can proceed with | but little expense, and land a good force of ma- | rines and satlors in the event of an emergency re- quiring their assistance, There #as also been some discussion as to the propriety of send- ing General Terry to New Orleans, as it | might imply @ want of confidence tn General Emory, and would be construed as rodecting upon General McDowell, the commander of the Depart- ment of the South. For this reason dt was again suggested to-day that General Sheridan, whose | rank Would avoid auen toferences, ougut jo be sent ance, and the Governor read to him the following | Str, 1 transfer | | to you, sir, the capitaland the other property of | ords, &¢., which were in the building when he | drew, leaving the capital of Louisiana in posses- | Ee | to Loulaiana to take command of the forces ordered there, ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE SURRENDER. To-night the news is to the effect that the insur- gents, recognizing the authority of the United Staces, and anxious to avoid any conflict with the federal troops, are willing to surrender to General | Emory, s0 that it can be said they ald not recog- | nize the Kellogg government in retiring | from the offices usurped by them. This is regarded as but @ repetition of the | ola, oid story, for heretofore, when the | opponents of Kellogg have committed overt acts against the State, and the aid of the United States troops has been necessary to restore order, The leaders of the mob have insisted upon sur- rendering to an United States oficer, and refused to surrender to the recognized State government. Now, however, the situation is entirely changed. The proposition of Governor McEnery to allow Boylan, the insurgent Chief of Police, to continue im command and complete the organization of a police, means a@ ylelding to the insurgents, for with such @ force they could at any time overawe and overthrow Kellogg. There seems to have been no good reason for this reser- vation of the’ police power, as the Metropolitans are lully organized under existing State laws, its officers and men being now under pay, by virtue | of their commission issued by the government the President has pledged himseif to maintain. Whether this reservation will complicate a peace- ful settlement of the diMculty or whether the gov- ernment will allow it remains to be considered. A FURTHER COMPLICATION ARISES | from the fact that by the action of the President the ringleaders of the insurgents are amenable to tne laws of Louisiana for the highest crime known to that Statg, In asserting his functions as Gov- eraor, Mr. Kellogg will be compelled to prosecute all the ringleaders in the insurgent movement, The massacre of the Metropolitans will be re- garded as murder by @ riotous assemblage. With | these tacts before the President, it has become a | serious question whether by any act of the United States officers the government will be complicated in restoring peace. The proposition of Governor McEnery to | GIVE THE INSURGENTS SOME OFFICIAL STATUS cannot be recognized by the President under any circumstances, The fact that there has been even for a few days an usurpation of authority will not be officially recognized. Goveraor Kellogg, whether | in the State House or Custom House, is, according | to the President's view, the Governor of the State Of Louisiana. and has been without interruption. To treat with the insurgents, to give them any recognition whatever, was what General Emory was positively commanded to avoid, and he will | not be suffered to accept their surrender to nim | as @ government, lor that would be tn deflance of | the resolve of the Cabinet yesterday. This is what has renewed the complication, and General Emory’s order received here to- night fully confirms, in the opinion of oficials, the wisdom of divesting him of | any authority to treat with the insurgents, The hesitation of the President to promptly move | the troops already ordered ‘s unfavorably critt- cised, for if they are not sent now it is considered as certain that they will bave to be to support | Kellogg, and their absence will only prolong anarchy. The Coushatta massacre has yet to be investigated, and without the presence of federal troops it is said there is no hope of bringing the parties who perpetrated the crime to justice, What at an early hour this evening appeared to be a peaceful and satisfactory solution of the trouble is entirely changed. General Emory, it is contended, has exceeded his instructions. He has virtually declared martial law in the city of New Orleans, exactly what the President did not intend | to do under any circumstances, The appointment | of the Lieutenant Colonel of the Third infantry to take command of the city of New Orleans, and in confirming the appointment of the insurgents’ | | Chier of Police, and this not at the request of | Governor Kellogg, so far as shown by the order, indicates an opinion on the part of General Emory that he 1s in charge of the State of Louisiana and | | ignores the fact that ithasa government and a Governor to manage its local government. The following is the despatch which wasreceived by Senator West at five o’clock, and immediately | communicated to the President and Attorney General, both of whom at the time expressed their high gratification at its contents:—* NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 17, 1874. Senator J. R. West, Washington :— Governor Penn and Collector Casey are in con- ference. I have just nad a personal interview with Penn, who authorizes me to, say he will acquiesce in the final decision of the President and turn over the State government to the United States military authority, but not to the State | militia, under Such protest as the honor of his | people and the emergency of the case demands; Jor beyond an honest government for all the races | he has no other ambition, | Penn will officially telegraph the President to- day. Affairs all quiet, A. B, SLOANAKER. This proposition it is understood is satisfactory | to the President, and by the advice of the Attor- ney General when it is made officially the Presi- dent will instruct General Emory or Lieutenant General Sheridan to formally demand the surren- der of the State property, and turn it over to Gov- ernor Kellogg and his officials, without waiting | for the expiration of the five days, | Adjutant General Townsend at eight o'clock ' calied on the President with a telegram from General Emory, announcing thit the insurgent leaders had surrendered the State property and | disbanded their forces under the President's | proclamation. Orders have accordingly been tel- |egraphed to the Adjutant General of the | military division of the Atlantic to sus- pend the movement of troops ordered to | New Orleans, which includes the Twenty- | Second infantry, the artillery companies at New | York and other points. The President has taken | steps to secure reliable information from New Or- | leans as to the exact condition of affairs, whether the action of the insurgents is in good faith, | whether they will peaceably conduct themselves | and not interfere with the Kellogg Govern- | ment. Should these inquiries be satisfactorily | answered, the movement of any considerable | body of troops may be countermanded, but for | the present the order is simply to suspend thetr Movement. A telegram has been sent to the lead- | ing insurgents intorming them that good faith and prompt acquiescence will react in their favor and help the people of Louisiana to get rid of the cause of their troubles and complaints. The information | sought is expected to-morrow, when it will be considered at once at a Cabinet session. A DOLEFUL DESPATCH. The following despatch was received from Goy- ernor Kellogg this mornin, A number of Union men, among them one who came irom the Northwest and invested $100,000 in business here, have been to me to say that if this government fails the¥ will be refugees. Dr. Bot Zano says the country bas gone back twelve years, | Itisa new rebellion. Casey is straight, though | they have bulliea him into signing a statement that the city ts orderly. One of the telegrams sent me yesterday was seized by the patrols and taken to Penn, who sent it to me, BLOODSHED IN GEORGIA, AUGUSTA, Sept. 17, 1874, The recent outrage im Columbia county is de- nounced by all good citizens. Two negro men, named West and Jim Lovelace, stole a bale of cotton from an oid white man, The negroes were arrested and voluntarily submitted toa whipping. Subsequently an armed party called at Lovelace’s house. Not finding him they proceeded to a hguse where an old negro man was staying and shot him, They also shot a negro named Griffin in the hand and killed GriMn’s wife, THE TRENTON MASSACRE. One of the Murdorers Turned State’s Evidence=—Forty-Two M Indicted for Complicity—Arrest of Some of the Pare tiles and Voluntary Surrender of Others=A Deputy Sheriff Luplicated. MEMPHis, Tenn., Sept Lt, 1874. The Grand Jury at Trenton, Gibson county, Tenn., the scene of the late massacre of negroes, have indicted forty-two men, mostly citizens of that county, on charges of complicity m the bloody work, and a number have already been arrested, Several had been arrested on warrants issued by the {ederal gMgers of this districh and, are 7 here in Memphis awaitmg examination. Of the number arrested since the indictments, as above, one has turned State’s evidence, making @ clear breast of having taken part in the JAIL BREAKING AND MASSACRE, and giving tne names of parties, among the gniity ones including one of the deputy sherifs of Gib- son county. The complicity of this’ offictal serves toexplain the ease with which the masked ma- Tauders forced the jail and carried off their unfor- tunate victims, Sixteen negroes were taken out, it willbe remembered, six of whom are known to have been shot to death near the town, while only two ofthe others,who were carried further off, have ever been heard of alive. One Ben Davis gave the iniormation which led to the indictments, he having obtained the same, he said, from his brother Andrew, who was one of the marauders: and murderers, Fearing violence at the hands of his late comrades in crime, Andrew Davis has disappeared and is supposea to have gone te Nashville for safety. Nine of the parties indicted have voluntarily gone to Trenton and given tratk for their appearance in the sum of $1,000 cack, while others have fled to avoid arrest. The newly elected Sheritl of Gipson county was recently inducted into oftice, and is making the situation red hot for all supposed to have beem concerned in the massacre. Seeing the work of bringing the guilty ones to justice progressing thas satisfactorily, Governor Brown has returned to Nashville. THE WEEKLY HERALD. The Cheapest and Best Newspaper in the Country.
