White southerners and black southerners are congregating with their race, not for the purpose of peace and discussion, but rather to riot. On three separate occasions - September 1st, 2nd, and 7th - Richmond was engulfed by the passion of its citizens. After weeks of closed meetings, many black residents have come together to riot in defense of their riots, however, the white southerner editors of The Daily Dispatch seem to think this gathering is finds its purpose in the "utter extermination of the whites, both young and old." The black community is not the only one rioting in defense of itself, as the white community finds itself in a similar situation. After an attempted kidnapping of a woman late at night, the white community has lashed out - search parties have come together to find the individual, while riots have ensued out of pure anger toward the attempted outrage.

Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound A lady from this city, who has been spending the summer upon her farm near Rappahannock station; in Fauquier county, was suddenly aroused from her slumbers a few nights since by the pressure of a hand upon her arm, and opening her eyes saw a large negro man standing by the side of her bed. She immediately screamed for help, and her overseer. who was an inmate of the house; armed with a stick and gun, at once ran to her assistance. The villain, hearing the approach of the oversees, seized a young lady who was sleeping in the same bed as the lady just mentioned, in his arms, and springing through the side door, darted for the woods, and had reached the gate of the enclosure before the overseer caught up with him and forced him to relinquish his prey by beating him severely over the head with a club. The young lady had swooned from fright. The affair occasioned great excitement in the neighborhood, and parties have been searching for the wretch, but as yet without success.
