Ellen Lm, a native of Ireland* died in Nee York cit j on Monday, at the greatly advanced aged of lift. A dispatch from Penaaooln reports the death in the Marine Hoapital, on Sunday, of a yellow fever patient, and adds that there is now no case in the city or hos pital. Tbs nominating Convention of the 7th Congressional District had an eaaier tank than any one anticipated. Mr. Trammell was nominated on the 17th balloting. 'I bis vote stood—Trammell 18, Young D, Wad dell (i. The aaajority rale bad been adopted. Gem. John O. Forraa, wboee death at Naaaan, on the 1st inat., in reported by telegraph, was the Federal officer who re- moved the garrison from Moultrie to Hum- ter before hoatilitiea commenced. He was Mfterwards one of the party that surren dered. He nerved with distinction during the war. chiefly in North Carolina. A Radical desperado named Alex. New- ton, who was Sergeant-at-arms of the Re publican (’.invention of Louisiana lately, killed Justice Houdonnay in New Orleans on Tuesday evening. Mr. Ilondonney, who was a Democrat, was at a raUfiaation meeting, talking about the situation, when Newton rime up atid stabbed him to the heart with a bowie knife. Wb fiud in the Montgomery Stott Jour nal the authoritative announcement of Judge Littloberry Strange as an "inde pendent" candidate for re-election as Judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit of Alabama. Judge Strauge charges thst he was defeated for the nomination by bribery—a moat serious charge, which ought to be fully investigated. We won der if they refused the Judge any share in that hacou for the "overflowed." Does be mean that bribery was used iu the Convention, upou the delegates, or that it was used to buy up the negroes at the primary meetings? Teat Cases. The results of the late trials at Mont gomery ought to have great weight in de termining which is the lawless political party in Alabama. A Radical Judge was arrested for illegal protection afforded by him to rogues of his own party. His friends, in retaliation, caused the arrest of six gentlemen of Eufaula for alleged violation of the Enforcement act. Both parties were carried to Montgomery for preliminary trial. The gentlemen of the Democratic jmrty, after a searching inves tigation lasting several days, during which the Radical party uaed every effort to procure or manufacture evidence against them, were honorably acquitted and discharged without bail. The trial was before a Republican Federal Com missioner. lint Hoils, the Radical Judge, *as bound over iu a large bond. Kveu the Solicitor who practices in his court—a Republican officer and candidate for re- election—gave most damaging testimony against him. These cross cases consti tuted one of tho most exciting political aud party disputes that hai lately agitated Alabama, and they resulted iu the uom- plete exculpation of the Democrats, while the Radical is held to answer. THK UNT RAbl€AI< I*MOP. The dispatches of yesterday lead us to believe that tho greedy and unscrupulous office-seekers of the Southern Radical party have succeeded in their maohina- tions. They have obtaiued the promise of Fodcral bayonets to help them, after the going through of a little official for mality to give a pretext of hesitation in committing the outrago. They flocked simultaneously, at a concerted signal, (rum all parts of the South, to Waahiugtou and Lung Branch. Kel logg aud his gang of rowdies, fresh from their riots and violence in New Orlaaus; White aud Sheets, aud perhaps Tellium from Alabama, im mediately after their disgraceful proceed ings at Selma and Montgomery ; aud Pat terson aud his corrupt guug from down trodden South Carolina all, with many others of the same stripe from tho several States of the South, hurried North, with tlieir falsehoods, to have their States again subjected to military invasion ; all for the miserable purpose of gaining office for themselves and power for their party. Aud too ready and credulous an ear has been lent by tho poteut Attorney General, and we fear by General Oraut, to their infamous statements. We fervently trust that every decent whito man uud every intelligent negro in the South are iu a lit frame of mind to make this iniquity recoil with overwhelm ing disaster upou the heads of its prompt ers. It ought to arouse a storm of iudig- uutiou at the South thst will end in the disgraceful defeat of the Radical party in every State uud every Congressional Dis trict. Let it stimulate all onr energies aud draw* out to tho poles such a white vote as was never before counted. We cun never have peace or freedutu while thus subjected to wrongs and indignities for the promotion of tho selfish purposes of bad uion among us, and the aooner the Southern people teach them that they are no longer to be tufted with iu this way, the better. editors, particularly Radical one* and those who commit the unpardonable sin of nsiug patent outsides. Bnt in this caw we determined to "try it on" and await re ulta. The mysteries of newspsperdom are various, and sometimes unfathomable. Our unfortunate brother at Fort Valley appears to be very much ia the name state of mind aa H. Ward Beecher, though ws have no idea that his little misfortune at all resembled Beecher's in kind. He hss had hia “feelings rumpled up worse than the bristles on a porcupine's bask” (we thought that they never got rumpled, but just stuck out as stiff as a lightning rod), and .it for something that be ia "just as innoosnt of aa a new-born babe." It ia a sad case, enlisting our profoundest sym pathies, aa well for the editor of the Mir ror as for his subscribers who lost one- half of the patent outside that he and they had to pay for. Ott FORKIOST MEM. We have endeavored to imprest upon the people of Georgia the importance of send ing men of first-rate talent to the next Con grem of tho United States; end though we have beau much disappointed in the nominations made in at least one of the District!!, we era glad to see that credita ble ability is to be secured by the election of the gentlemen put forward in the sev eral Districts that have made their nomi nations. The nomination of Hon. Julian Haitridge in the First Congressional Dis trict proves that the people of that Dis trict were resolved to have a man quali fied to represent it worthily and honora bly. He went into no scramble to get the nomination, made no electioneering tours or speeches, and kept his "claims" so well out of the canvass, that we were sur prised aa well as pleased by hia nomina tion. The Democrats of the Fifth Dis trict have selected an able standard-bearer in Mr. Candler, and we think that in point of talents au improvement has been made in the nomination in the Seventh District But, good as moat of the selections so far made may be, we have to regret that Georgia will not have in the next Congress her two ablest politicians to uphold her rights end tell the story of her wrongs iu tones that would command the attention end enlist the sympathy of the whole couutry. We allude, of course, to the Hod. Robert Toombs end the Hon. Bonjamin II. Hill. Geu. Toombs labors under the "disqualification" inflicted chiefly as a means of excluding Southern talent from office as long aa pomible, and he ia also said to be averse to taking a ■eat in Congress at this time. We may iudulge the hope that the day ia not far distant when both he end Mr. Hill will oocupy representative positions for which they are so admirably fitted. It is rather strange that the Southern people, seeing the despotic meeeures adopted to keep their experienced and able politicians out of offloe as long as possible -knowing that this course was resorted to because it wee obviously cal culated to retard the regaining of their political power aud influence—slid not hasten, aa soon aa most of the restrictions were removed, to put in high positions the men who had been thus politically ostracised. They but oontinuo the policy of their oppressors by prolonging the retirement of such men. They tacitly acquieeoe iu the indignity by failing to manifest their resentment. In all the several Congresses since the war, the representatives of the white men of the South have been few in nuin- tiers, end the Democrats from the North were not numerous enough to enable them, by alliance, to do anything more than to offer generally feeble end un availing opposition to the revolutionary measures of the party in power. But we have good reason to believe that the op position party iu the next Congress will be much stronger end more effloient. It will no doubt share largely in the shaping of the legislation of Congress. It will doubt less be able to arrest the onward progress of the Government towards a centralized despotism. It will have an aggressive’aa well as a defensive polioy. It will rely upou ita strength, not upon the magna- niuiity of the party that has so long ruled the country with despotic away. The Southern wing of the pariy will need strong men—able men—to maintain their advanced poeition. They will want intel lect commensurate with their numerieel strength—the power to sustain by argu ment the greater responsibilities devolved upon them. It is to meet this changed end more hopeful condition of affairs that the South needs her ablest men in the uext Congress. While we believe that Georgia will do trell in contributing uieu of ability and foroe, we should have been better satisfied if she had done her ctry beet iu every District. ttEMBUIA MEW*. — — -♦ —George Rroan cut Wash.

World.] Philadelphia, August 2V.—Nearly two months havo passed since Charley Hoe* was taken almost from the vorv threshold of hia father's house, and yet the prospect of hia recovery has at no time been dark er than to-day. The belief that the ohild waa stolen for revenge grows stronger every day. What the circumstances were that led to this devilish attempt to avenge a wrong, real or imaginary, are among thelaecreta of this unfathomable mystery. The City Detective Department has been weighed in the balance and found wanting, numerous private detectives have tried their akill and failed, and now the beat organized agency in the country is to try its hand. Allen Pinkerton has been eugaged to undertake what now ap pears to be almost an impoaaible task. Ho will set the whole maoniuery of hia bureau at work. To defray the necessary expenses of this renewed search a sum of money is to be raised, independently of the roward of $20,000 already promised. Mr. George Phitlee, President of the Firat National Bank of this oity, will set aa treasurer of the fund, to which oitixens are asked to contribute. Pinkerton haa taken hold of the matter in earnest, and has prepared a oiroular to be distributed where it will do the most good.
