WE5CRAL MOTEN AXD NEWS. O fiemorrafif Z! ....-------------- -- - Official Paper for Jackson 4 Joseph ine Conni ics. DECEMBER 25. 1874. FRIDAY For the past week we have been receiving accounts by telegraph of rioting and bloodshed in the Southern States. Armed hands of negroes at tacked the city.of Vicksburg, says the Mercury, in the vain effort to reinstate a defaulting colored Sheriff. A largo I number of blacks and several whites lost their li^es in the conflict which ensued. And now comes the report from Louisiana of trouble in that I State, on account of false returns by the Returning Board. One account I has it that Kellogg has threatened that the streets of New Orleans shall run with blood. The condition of the South is truly deplorable, while with a tyrannical and usurping Republican ele ment in the ascendancy in the general government and thieving carpet-bag gers in possession of the State gov ernment, both charged with the mis sion of enforcing the outrageous re construction lavs, their condition is pitiable. They being powerless in the hands of their oppressors, it is not to be wondered at that they at times l>e- come frantic, and turn upon their op pressors, with an avenging hand. But we trust that more peaceful days are approaching for them, when the Ti mocracy shall supersede the present cor rupt party in power. I More Fi mi ky ism.

The Public Library of Kentucky and tlie ticket-holders are jointly interested in tho amount of the drawing. The larger the fund to be distrib uted in gifts the greater will be the gifts awarded to each lucky ticket-holder and the more the amount realized by the Libra ry. To have a full drawing is so manifestly to the interest of those interested that, rather than have a fractional drawing on the 30th inst., I deem it true to the trust confided to me by the ticket-holders and the Public Li brary of Kentucky, that a short postpone ment be made to enable me to dispose of the unsold tickets an<l have a full drawing. Though the very large amount now in bank would enable us to distribute handsome gitV. vet we should feel disappointed^ this, our last concert, should we be compelled to make a fractional drawing, however large. We have received so very large a number of letters from all parts of the coun try from those most largely interested, urg ing a postponement if all the tickets be not sold by the 30th, that we feel strengthened in our sense of duty to the ticket-holders and the Public Library, to make the post ponement. Under these circumstances, we have determined in the interests of all par ties to postpone the concert and drawing to Saturday, February 27, 1874, at which time the drawing will positively take place, and as a guarantee of good faith towards ticket holders, we pledge ourselves to refund any ticket-holder his money, upon presentation of his ticket, should the drawing fail to come off at the day now fixed. The past, we feel assured, will be sufficient guarantee to all interested that they will be fairly and hon estly dealt with. Tho money paid for tick ets is sacredly preserved against all contin gencies until after the payment of tho gifts, after which the expenses are to be reim bursed and the Public Library paid its prof its.
