The Congrcsional Committee investi
gating the Ku-Kiux villainy a fub
coramittee in Washington, and another
sub-committee in South Carolinia have
now been in daily session more than two
months, and have had before them many
scores of witnesses from all sections of
the late Insurrectionary States men of
both hijjh and humble station Presiding
K'ders, Preachers, ex-Members of the
Federal Co igress and ex-Members of the
Confederal Congress, ex-Generals of
both Annies, Governors and ex Govern

Ulheers, Officers ot the Army, ros tin af
ters, School Teachers, Repentant and
Non-repentant members of Ku-Klux
Klaus, and dozens r-f their maimed and
suffering victims, black and white.
And what has this pMtient and thor

among the initiated by different names,
but everywhere recognized by the gen
eral cognomen "Ku-Kixx."

Presidential lOlection, during which can
vass it was in its most vigerous condition.

Exonerated.
It will be remembered by many of our
readers that E. M. Clark of West Point
made, last spring, serious charges againt
Gen. G. M. O Jirien, Commissioner of
the U. S. Dist. Court at Omaha, having
for an object his removal from office.
Affidavits derogatory to the official career
of Mr. O linen were made and present
ed with a petition aekinsr that he be re
moved from office. The examination
came off in May before 11 S. Dundy of
the U. S. Dist. Court, and the papers in
the case were then sent up to Iiou. John
F. Dillon, of Des Moines, Iowa, Judge
of the U. S. Circuit Court. Ilis decis
ion in the matter was received at the of
fice of Judge Dundy last Friday. It
avers that the charges were not substan
tilted by the affidavits, and orders that
they be dismissed. We give the decis
ion below which speaks for itself : .
Dks 3Ioi.es, Iowa, May 15, 1S71.
Hon. E. H. Dundy. Judge IT. S. Dist.
Court, Omaha, A't.

you the charges, answer and testimony
in the matter ot the application to re
move G. M. O'lJrien, J-si.. as a Com
missioner to the U. S. Circuit Court for
the Dist. of Nebraska. 1 have read the
evidence adduced in support of the spe
cific charges, and think that it fails to
make out the truth of these charges with
anything like that emcient clearness re-
qired to establish them as facts.
With your concurrence I desire to or
der the charges dismissed.
If 3'ou concur, sign this and have it
put on tilo. Very truly,
John S. Dillon.
I fully concur, Elmer S. Dunpv.
This is only what has been expected
by the numerous friends of (Jen. O'Bri
e:i. It was generally believed, and is
now conclusively proven that the charges
were unfounded and unjust. Judge
Dillon's decision exonerates Commission
er O'Brien from every specification set
forth in the charges, and he stands be

an untarnished name and an unblotted

How will "the South" like the look

who sleep upon Revolutionary battlefields

JURIIEK I.V HAff.TEE.
A I.I very Ntnhlo Keeper Hnrdereil
Driinltcii l:ottlic.
from the IJrownvilIe Advertiser of
August 3d., we gather the following par
ticuurs relative to a brutal murderwhich
wa.s committed at Pawnee last Friday or
Saturday :
"The particulars, as we glean them.
are that two or three men concluded to
go into the apple speculation at St. Joe.
Before startimr, thev left a horse at the
Pawnee livery stable and received some
mmey upon it. Returning surcharged
with St. Joe whiskey, they demanded
their animal without charge, and upon
being refused, one of the drunken vaga
bonds seized the stable keeper and held
hiin while the other broke his skull in
with a brick. On Snndav the poor man
died. The murderer is in jail and threats
were made to save the State the trouble
and expense of trying him. The event
is charged by the Pawnee people, to whis
ky, and a strong feeling has sprung up
against the fluid, heightened by the re
port that a dealer from this city wa-
uboul opening au ardent depot in their
classic precincts.

To the Editor of the Tribune:
Silt : I see a notice going the rounds

notices the saruo thing. Will you do me
the justice to state that I have" nothing
to do with the New Departure, nor have
1 uttered a word in public upon the sub
ject? That I have neither appeared to
take the new oath or receive a parol at

j. That this Ku-Klux organization is
the premeditated and determined scheme
for carrying the South at the next elec
tion of President, and so, by securing
he entire electoral vote of that section,
make sure the election ot the 1'emoerat-
ic nominee.
4. That the officers and establishes of
these '"Dens" (as they appropriately
call their separate bancs) are the lead
mg and active Democratic politicians of
the South.
5. 1 lint the scheme has the heart v
good-will of a lame section of the Dem
ocratic Party in all those States, and the
acquiescence of nearly the entire party.
b. lhat the uiroct and chief purpo
of the organization, as sworn by all the
Victims, as the assertion uniformly made
to them by these midnight assassin, and
corroborate J by the universal testimony
of the repentant and divulging members
of the Order, is this: The putting down
of the Republican and the putting ur
of th( Democratic Party.
7. 'lhat while the Democra tic and Ku
Klux witnesses on their direct examina
tion usually deny the political purpose of
the Order, asserting that the Ivu-lvlux
are a social necessity crowing out of the
abolition of the old Patrol; that they
have to ride the country to "keep the
Niirgers in their place ;" that under the
influence of Radical Legislation and
Methodist Preaching the Niirgers are
liable to become saucy," and without an
occasional Ku-K!ux vi-sit would "begin
to think rhemselve3 as cood ns white
folks;" and that these frequent flogging
and an occasional murder, are necessary
to maintain such a state of morals among
the B!ack3 as will permit the vice-hating
Whites to live in their nighborhood ;
yet on tlie cro.-s-examination, these U it
nessess also very generally, as well as
very reluctantly, confess that the intimi
dation of Republican voters is a promin
ent and not to be regretted result.
S. That, to secure this purpose, the
putting down of the Republican and the
putting up of the Democratic Party.
Intiinidati m is theg:anl measure the
intimidation of Repub'ican voters, black
and white, hut especially the humble
and defenceless, by Midnight Raids; by
Burning Hou-es and Stores, and the
Destruction of Crops ; by Whippings ot
such extreme cruelt3' as often to end in
Death; by most indecent and painful
.Maiming; by Assassination and Murder
in i-uch cowardly manner and with such
hellish device as may strike terror into
whole counties, and bring down the Re
publican vote from two or three thous
and to less than a f ingle dozen.
0. That "School-teachers," and
"Preachers of the Methodist Church
North," seem to be the especial abhor
rence ot these Democratic Assassins;
anil hundreds of School houses and
Methodist Churches have been given to
the flames ; and Christendom will stand
aghast when it is made known the scores
of school-teachers aud Methodist Preach
ers, who, this Democratic ageney, within
these three years, have been Whipped !
Shot ! Hunt' ! and. in some instances, it
is tielievt d. Burned at the Stake !
10. That in nearly onhalf the States
of this Union this work of hell is now
goimr on, rnht by iiiirht every month
extending the range of its bloody opera
tions, and tearfully multiplying the num
ber of i s vi ;tims !
lha' it is solely and immediately in the
service of the Democratic Parry a large
