IV. The evidence iu the foregoing casesdiscloses a deed of lawless and inhuman vio-lence. It appears that a daughter of one ofthe prisoners, having attempted to beat ayoung colored girl, met with resistancewhich became successful and resulted in thechastisement of the white by the black.

:This unlocked for reversal of a long-accn-

tomed relation filled theneighborhood withconsternation and rage. Couriers passed toand fro from farm to farm, inflaming .thetemper of the people and concerting meas-ures to produce terror among the negroes.' Ameeting of citizens was convened at a schoolhouse near. the residence of the parties. Theaccused were among those .assembled. .The

. magistrate Jenkins, was invited to lend the' sanction of his presence, and did so.. Phil-lis, the young freedwoman, was sent for.

i Dragged before this ' con-clave of angry men, whom she nad been ac- -,

customed from infancy to call masters, someof whom she now heard urging ' he incar- -ceration, while one swore she would be hung,and all agreed that she must be imprisoned

, or whipped. The frightened girt exclaimedthat she had rather be whipped than go tojail. This was taken s the expression- of

the assent whicfc they desired; Some sort ipf ,'.

.' writing was drawn up, called an indenture,;;bywhich Phillis; having signed .it, wa imade to bind herself as an apprentioe to one, ,

Mrs. Harmon, who. .thereupon consented sv

that her ward should, bo flogged. ;

Quite enough was . thought, to have been- -.

thus conceded to the mockery of the legal i'

formalities, and the impatieut assemblage,

consisting of all the prisoners who have beenconvicted, except the magistrate, hastened

. to execute i the penalty awarded. ' Philliswas conducted into an a(jacent wood,where, at a spot some sixty yards remote ;

from any road, she was halted and told to.take down her dwaa She not obeying with';alacrity, one of the prisonere snatched it oflV

her shoulders. ..Stripped .to her waist, ex-- ,' ceDt of her chemise, she was then whipped; bv five

.of these

.men ..in succession,

.by

fwhom,

.i.according to the testimony oi. , one oi mem:,ono hundred and twenty-si- x 126 . lasheswere inflicted upon her half naked body,with rods three feet long and one naif tothree-eighth- s of an inch thick. Her garmentwas cut through 5 blood run from the walesraised on her lacerated back; one gash in .

her flesh, three days alter, showed four inch- -(

es in length; the heavy blows fell upon herperson at random she was pulled ; she waspushed was kicked; till at last, it :

seems that one of the accused; an applaud-jn- g

bystander, not utterly insensible to the.sufferings and Bex of the. wretched victimwas so far touched by the spectacle of hertorture, the cry was wrung from him, "Boys, '.

don't hurt her breast!" Having satiated .

Jhei"- - savage vengeance, her tormentors, fatU'.V

gued ..by ..their, exertions, .withdrew; notv .

however, without considering the' proposal- -

of one ofthe number to return and give herten more lashes each, to stop her screaming.Finally, the poor phild, wounded and grcan-- "

ing, was permitted to make her way to thehouse of her mistress, where for days she'suffered, scarcely able to crawl to- - her unre- -'

mitted task or even to wear her clothes with-.,o- ut

pain. iIn the revolting crime thus briefly outlin--'

ed. all of these prisoners are shown to have' been eager participants.- In the interest of

outniged justice it is t,o be deplored tuat tueperpetrators have. been adjudged to undergo

7punishment so .inadequate to .. the enormityof their offence . ''. ''

- The proceedings 'and finding are app rov- -' ed ; and in view of the delay which would

result Ironi revisiop, too sentences are ap- - ,

proved, and the common jail at Plymouth ,

is designated as the place of confinement. .jlne commanaer or ine poBt 01will see that the sentences are executed. ,. .'. ',

guilt ofthe offender in thus wilfully disre- -garding the provisions of paragraph VHI,General Orders 32, prohibiting such unlaw-ful distinctions, is confessed and proved., .. ,

So long as the laws imposed civil and po-

litical disabilities because of servitude orcolor, common carriers were permitted to en--.

The meeting organized by calling Rev. H,white, to the Chair,- and request-

. On motion, the following persons were re-

quested to draft resolutions, setting forth thesense and feeling of the meeting, viz : Messrs.Exum Goodwin, Wiu. HaughtonWm. Ward,J. H. Jones, white, Biid Messrs. Isaac Conels,David Holly and C; Elliott, colored. Afterretirement and due deliberation, the Com-

mittee reported fhe following resolutionswhich were accepted and r approved amidshouts of applause: .,

Whereas, The deep wretchedness of de-

grading slavery has been forever cast out ofthe Southern-- States, and we as a free and.intelligent people are called upon at thispropitious time to link our fortunes, andunite our interests to the common cause ofliberty and political, equality, which we feci

deeply sensible can never be . accomplishedunless wo cheerfully, freely and honestly ac-

cept the net of reconstruction and the stat-utes supplementary thereto, as the true basisof regeneration, . opening a ' new and broadarena for civilization and enterprise in theSouth ; therefore, ' '.' .

" ' i '

1. Rewlied, That,we recognize the Reputelican party as that ,ni)icb; has, proudly and.safely conducted .the government, throughthe dark days of perilous treason,: and wefeel that it will at no distant day in the fu-

ture be successful in convincing all its ene-

mies, who now denounce it as a sectional or-

ganization, that it is alone alive to the greatand true interests of the people of the wltolecountry, bearing; as it does, on its banner thegolden inscription " Equality to all men be-

fore the Law," and we believe every otherprinciple of the party to be as pure, as thatbright inscription is' glorious.' "I

.2. That' the rapid, changes of popularopinion, even those which have illustratedthe success of the Republican cause in theSouth since the close of the war, will appearalmost slight and insignificant when com-pared with . the , workings of greater andmightier revolutions, which will take placewithin the borders of North-Carolin- a, whenshe elects a Republican Governor, Republi-can Congressmen and a Regublicau Legisla-ture. . The theatre of Republican triumphswill not be confined to Tennessee; and whilewe bail with joy the glad news of the greatsuccess of the Republican party in our noblesister State, and while our shouts of applausearc wafted on the winds of heaven to theloyal and victorious Tcnnesseeans, we wouldtake the bright example of their energy, de-

votion and zeal in the glorious cause of free-dom, as a better guide to the resplendentgoal now before us. sf- s -

3. That we hold no man as c. friend to theRepublican cause, who does not avow andexpress a determination to and actwith the party, and iwe would warn ourbrethren and friends throughout the Stateof North-Carolin- a to regard somewhat withdistrust all those timid men, who fear tospeak and act boldly and independently forthe good of the whole country, in this tryinghour of our political danger ; viewing thedark scenes of our past suffering, knowingthe present difficulties which, surround us,and hoping for a complete restoration andregeneration of the political, industrial andsocial organization of the interests of theState,-w- e can not fail to point with unquali-ifie- d

disapprobation and .condemnation' tothe Johnson Conservative party ; and whilewe, warn our friends and countrymen through-out the State against the principles of thatparty, 'which,' chameleon-like- , changes itscolor to suit every shade of opinion andpolicy, we can not fail tr recommend unityof action among all true Republicans, as thesure guarantee of Buccess, and at tbo sametime appealing to the noble, patriotic andtrue-hearte- d sons of . North-Carolin- a, wewould implore them to stand up boldly audmanfully for the Republican cause, allowingno threat and no teorn ot the oppositionparty to deter us from the great work ofState reconstruction based upon the broadfoundation of Freedom and Political Equal-ity,' for all should bear in mind that theseare times of public disquitudu, political dan-- .ger and private suffering which impose du-ties upon the whole people, not less nponthose who participated in. rebellion thanupon those made free by its-- results ; andtherefore, we Republicans of Chowan County would seek to heal up old wounds of par--,ty strife, and beat down by force, of reasonall opposition to" the government," buildingnp in its stead a high and holy altar of pat-riotism and truth j and burying forever in thedark, Cheerless grave of oblivion all tho vilesentiments of Copperheads, Traitors and en-

emies, vipers, whom we have seen warmedinto life under the government of the UnitedStates, and fed and nourished' by its generous bounty and liberality only ia the hour"of danger to turn upon and sting its truefriends and supporters. "

- 4. That living in a country rendered illus-trious, noble and renowned by the wisdom,'greatness, devotion and integrity of itsstatesmen and patriots, we ftre beyond alldoubt unwilling to sacrifice its glorious re-cord of the past or to surrender its brillianthopes of future grandeur,- importance andglory to the low, dishonorable tricks of designing demagogues, and we will at all timesrecommend for nomination to all offices inthe gift ot the people only those true men,who are untainted with treason or politicalcorruption, and whose .lives and energiesprove their devotion to- - the Union, for thesealone can be accepted as pledges of confi-dence in a land furrowed all over with thegraves of a nation's heroes, sacrificed by thebreath of discord and consumed by the firesof treason. . . ; t

' J ' f'. 5. That we look upon" the State Republi-- ..

ban Convention t6be convened in' the Cityof Raleigh on the 4th day of September, asan important political movement, tending tothe prosperity, harmony and unity of theState Republican party, and we recommendthe appointment of delegates from the Coun-ty to said Convention, requesting that saiddelegates- - be instructed to onlywith those persons who remain undoubtedlyand unqualifiedly loyal to the great princi-ples of Republican freedom. , , i.y-

6. That we fully and Cheerfully endorsethe political principles so nobly, ably andboldly advocated by the Raleigh Standard,Newbern Republican and Raleigh Register,together with all the loyal press of the State,and While we commend their patriotic devo-tion to the cause of truth, we urge all good,men, who cherish the prosperity of the Re-publican party to give their earnest supportto the free and loyal press of the State, for itmust ever remain the guardian of our jib-- .,

HK. JAMES H. HARRIS III STOiES COUiTY.

' Pursuant to previous; notice, Mr. Jaa. H.Harris addressed the people at PiedmontSprings on the 15th Aug. Notwithstandingthe heavy rain in the forenoon, a respectablenumber of the people from the neighborhoodand the visitors at. the place, assembled andlistened to a short address from , Mr. Harriswith marked attention ; while many presentwere opposed to his political views, expressedthemselves as being, well pleased with, hisremarks. ,4 i "' :;-

It was then announced that Mr. Harriswould address the people at Danbury, twoand a half miles from the Springs, on Satur-day the 17th, the notice being but two days,yet a largo number of both races of morethan one thousand persons assembled to hearthe distinguished orator.. He was iutrodu-ce- d

to the audience by J. J, Martin, Esq.,who made a few appropriate remarks, speak-ing of him a. a man' of excellent character,of high standing m the community where helives, and famed pver the land for his talentsand gentlemanly demeanor.

' Mr. Harris de-livered one of the most chaste and eloquentspeeches ever made in the County. He spokeof the former and present condition of theraces in this country, that while living to-

gether for! more than two centuries were inmany rcspecis uuacquainted, that it now be-

came necessary for the white and colored tounderstand their rights, politically! and be-

fore the law, and suggested the propriety oftheir coming closer together, but not to touch,in order, that a' more friendly feeling mightbe produced ; spoke of the absurdity of socialequality, and against violating the establish-ed customs of the country in regard to thesocial relations; that in all instances of break-

ing over the supposed line marked out bydemagogues, the whites would break groundfirst; that a negro would not thrust himselfinto a parlor where white ladies and gentle-men were assembled, but it was frequentlythe case that white persons would be foundat negro parties, r. .That ; white men wouldoften declare they never would vote for orassociate with black men, would stultifythemselves by taking a drink of liquor with anegro and go to meetings ot colored people ofboth sexes and be "hail fellow well met" withthem.'1 Spoke in glowing terms of the prin-- .ciples and measures of the 'great Union Re-

publican party ; the Southern States couldonly hope for restoration to their places inthe Union by rely ing upon the generous andliberal policy of this party of progress j thatthe piebald tactions North and South couldeffect' nothing towards ' reconstructing thegovernment ; that all then acts Were calcu-lated to do great mischief ; 'that the NorthernCopperheads were hollow hearted, selfish andfaithless had deceived the Southerners intothe belief that they would assist them informing a separate government and then de-

serted their cause were the enemies of theColored race opposed to a liberal course to-

wards these people and against extending tothem the right of suffrage ; ' that' the Conser-vatives' South had no platform of principles,but were disposed to act in concert withNorthern Democrats and suffered themselvesto be governed too much by their prejudices;advised all men to bury the past discardtheir prejudices j to rally under the great andglorious banner 'of the Republican party, tomarch forward; guided by its principles, toeffect a reconstruction' of the States ; coun-seled the loyal people to attach themselvesto the Union Leagues or some other goodorder which would be great belpers in thework of reconstruction and the success ofthe party. Urged the people to register andVote for members to a Convention who wouldform such a Constitution that would be ac-

ceptable to the loyal people of the State andto Congress; Told- the colored people tolabor more how than when slaves ; not toexpect lands to be given them ; but to savetheir money and buy homes; exhorted themto be sober, industrious and economical andbuild up a name for honesty, sobriety andgood behavior; that it the confiscation actshould be enforced, it would be the fault ofthe Southern property holders, by rejectingthe mild and generous terms offered by Con-gress, and by acting in an overbearing man-ner towards tenants and hired men, by tyran-nically removing them from their cabinhomes and discharging men from employ--,meat for opinion's sake. Said when a manhired bis time, the employer had no right tocontrol his vote ....

'

' The audience was remarkably quiet andorderly, and" listened with profound atten-tion ; all seemed well pleased with the ex-

ception of a few sullen, sulky Copperheads,who hung upon the outskirts of the crowdand " u sat nursing their wrath Jo keep itwarm," and as Sut Lovengood was wont tosay of a certain bird that would fly np theCreek and perch himself on the limb of a deadtree and draw his head in, ;" just went toBtudyin," but said nothing. All passed offwell, the loyal people Went home delighted.The Republicans will carry the County inthe next election for a member to the Con-vention by a tremendous majority, t M.
