              <text>A Regular War.-- It would appear from the newspaper accounts of the late negro riot in Texas, that the negroes there have recently declared war against the whites, and that the latter (including the military) have conceded to them the rights of belligerents, and granted to them the privileges and immunities usually accorded to regular forces in the field under national auspices. Pickets have been established, and &lt;em&gt;flags of truce &lt;/em&gt;have passed between the contestants, in order that they might &lt;em&gt;bury their dead. &lt;/em&gt;This most singular state of affairs has caused the wildest excitement to exist throughout the State, and one of the attendant rumors (generally spread) was to the effect that the "Constitutional" Convention intended to disarm all the whites, arm all the negroes, and thus force the ratification of the Constitution about to be manufactured, and establish negro supremacy upon the basis of both law and brute force. It is a terrible state of things, truly. What will be the ultimate result of this marvellous condition of affairs no one can foresee.</text>

This map is significant, as it could have symbolized the tension throughout the county and especially Millican with there being a free black settlement nearby. Many Blacks decided to remain in Millican although there was an established settlement for them. Many whites were probably outraged by both the settlement and the reamining blacks of Millican.

              <text>Second Report on The Millican Affair.&#13;
Office L. A. C. 20th Sub. Dist. Bu. R. F. AND A. L.,&#13;
Millican, Texas, August 4, 1868.&#13;
Charles B. Vernon, Lieut, 4th U.S. Cav., A. A. G., Austin, Texas:&#13;
I have the honor to make the following additional report, also a correction of my report of the 23d ult.&#13;
A freedman named idle has been missing since the riot of the 15th ult., and it is feared he is killed. &#13;
In my report of the 23d ult. I stated it as my opinion that Holiday gave the first fire-&amp;c. Since writing the above-mentioned report, I have become convinced, by the evidence of several reliable witnesses, that I have done Holiday and the whites injustice in said opinion. &#13;
Mr. G. A. Wheat states that he saw the gun fire in the hands of a freedman, which statement is corroborated by two other witnesses. This mistake would not have been made had I seen the affidavits of G. A. Wheat and Deputy Sheriff Potilla, which were furnished Bvt. Lieut. Col. W. T. Gentry. &#13;
I am, very respectfully, &#13;
Your obedient servant, &#13;
N. H. Brandlett, L. A. C.</text>

Sheriff Neil publishes a very lengthy statement of he Millica riot, all of which might have been compressed into a sixth part of the space he occupies. His effort is to prove that the negroes fired the first gun, and that Capt. (R)and(l)ett was drunk, and that Brooks was specially commissioned by Hamilton &amp; Caldwell to get up the riot for the effect it would have on the mission to Washington. As he (...)vers that this is his opinion, we must credit him with speaking the truth. But we doubt whether there is another man, woman or child (...) Texas so easily gulled as to believe this last statement.</text>

              <text>Last week a very serious disturbance occurred at Millican, on the Central Railroad, in which the lives of from fifteen to twenty negroes were sacrificed. To gain full and correct information in regard to the matter, we went up there to investigate, and ascertain whether there was any truth in the numerous and wildly exaggerated reports constantly being brought in, and the following is what we learned. It can be depended upon as correct.&#13;
On Wednesday of last week a negro was reported killed in the Brazos bottom by a man named Holliday, and Parson Brooks, a negro demagogue and leader in the Loyal League organized a party of about 75 negroes, armed and mounted them, and rode through Millican with the expressed intention of hanging Holliday. The latter, hearing of this demonstration, hastened to Millican to inform the Sheriff, who summoned a posse of twenty men and started in pursuit, and overtook and halted the party a short distance from Millican. A parley then took place, and while the leaders were trying to arrange matters a negro foolishly discharged his gun, thus precipitating a fight, as the whites, thinking an attack was about to be made fired a volley into their ranks, killing five. The negroes then scattered, and for the next two days fighting was going on, with a result of between fifteen and twenty negroes killed. After the first outbreak a courier was sent to Bryan for help, and 100 men came down, under the command of Capt. Randlett, of the Freedmen’s Bureau, who commanded them throughout. It was reported to us by the orderly sergeant of the squad of troops sent to help the whites, that they had killed three negroes but the Lieutenant in command says it was not so. Which to believe we know not as there is a misstatement somewhere. &#13;
Next week we hope to furuish our readers with the full particulars of this bloody affair.&#13;

              <text>For the past three days, our city has been laboring under a great deal of excitement, consequent upon a difficulty which began on the 15th ult., between the whites and the blacks, at the town of Millican, Brazos County, on the Central Railroad, and which is not yet fully quieted. I learn from a perfectly reliable source that the difficulty had it's origins as follows:  A negro man, whose name I have not been able to learn, went to the house of a young man named Holliday, a short distance from Millican, to settle some business matters. Finding Holliday absent, the negro demanded a settlement of his wife, who informed him that she knew nothing about the business, and consequently could not do anything in the matter. This seemed to enrage the negro and he began making threats and cursing Mrs. Holliday, which so alarmed her that she fled to a neighbor's and informed the members of the family of what had taken place, and requested some men to go to her house and make the negro leave. Two or three men immediately went over and arrested the negro and carried him into Washington County, but a short distance from there, and turned him over to the civil authorities. Somehow or other - perhaps under instructions from the Loyal League - a report was circulated among the negroes in the vicinity that Holliday and his friends had hung the negro, and in an incredibly short space of time they congregated a force of about sixty well armed negroes, and marched through Millican in the direction of Holliday's house, breathing threats of vengeance.  ....  </text>
