FOR CONGRESS—FOURTH DISTRICT, HENRY K. HARRIS, of Meriwether. FOR RKPR^f4F.STATIVR8 OF MUSCOGEE, Taos. W. Grimes, Wm. F. Williams. Hon. H. R. Ilarrfl* Me-Nomlnatrcl. Wo recoivo the nomination of lion. Henry R. Harm for re-election to Cm- gross with much satisfaction. Only |>'*r- sonal regard for townsmen who have at different times been candidates for the nomination, prevented our expressing a decided preference for him. We have all tho time helieved that Mr. Harris, because of his extensive acquaintance and the ac ceptability of hia service in the present Congress, was the strongest man before the people, and this belief finds verifica tion in tho action of the Convention. We must now drop all personal preferences or prejudices and lshor for his election. We can elect him triumphantly hy union and activity, and we are not prepared to believe that any Democrat in the District will bo found lacking in either when threatened with military surveillance and the Civil Rights bill. All together now for Harris! One of tho Eufaula negroes, w ho swore to a fa sehood in behalf of tho negroes under examination for burning tho Fair building, has been arrested for perjury. A dispatch of tho 7th ii»Ht. from Little Hock, Ark., reports the arrival of dele gates to tho Democratic Slate Convention, which was to meet on the 8th, and says that from appearances Baxter will he nominated for re-olretion. Laticu accounts of the Austrian Polar Expedition says that tho explorers pene trated to tho 8,'Id degree of north latitude. This is a little nearer than Halls, which was to the K‘2d degreo and some minutes, aud is the nearest approach to the pole of which wo havo any knowledge. IIkthy Ward, tho indomitable saloon keeper of Greenville, Tonn., has come out victorious. The ladies havo finally raisod tho soige, removing thoir touts, cooking stovo, Ac. Betsy is now tho heroine who broke the backbone of the anti-whiskey crusade. Alabama fives, duo 1 HHli, uru quoted in New York at !t() cents, and eights at to cents in tho dollar. Tho Mobile Urginter makes the timely reminder that Alahninu bonds were worth more than this in Eng land, while wo were engagod iu tho late war, involving tho groat bulk of Koutheru property. The Augusta papers of Tuesday pub lish the letter of Hon. A. H. Stephens accepting his nomination for Congress. Ho says that he was profoundly and grate fully affected hy the houor, cordially ac cepts it, and will, if elected, serve the people of tho District to the utmost of his ability. The New York Tribune of the 0th, spoaking of the reported disorders at tho South, Nays that tho President may have information not yot divulged,hut that “to the unofficial eye no proof of the existence of any such conspiracy has yet boon dis played. Wo hear of lawless deeds, mur ders, lynchings and other varieties of vio lence which, ulus, have long boon com mon in tho South, hut both sides seem to have taken their share of them, and i case of which tho full particulars have come to hand has tho disorder sprung from politics.” “INTIMIDATION.** One of the pretexts of the white Radi cal office seekers who lately ffocked to W»mhitig‘on to procure the overrunning of the South with Federal troop*, was that the negroes were •‘intimidated” by the Democrut* and could not exercise their political rights.

MOUTH ERN UOTTON MIEI.M. We have noticed with much gratifica tion tho fact that nenrly all the cotton manufacturing establishments of tho South havo been enabled to continue in active operation during the depression and stagnation of trodo.following the punio of last fall. Few of them hud roBervo funds, and many of thorn hud only recent ly commenced operations ; Home were in debt for muchiuery contracted for before the panic ; yot wo find that most of them were able to run longer time thnn many of the older and better established mills iu the North aiul of England, with their externivo trade arrangements long estab lished. We regurd this crisis as one that tried tho oajucity of tho South tor compe tition v ith uuy country iu tho world iu the rnaunfa -ture of cotton, ami tho result as demonxtr ding the superior mlvuiitagc.s for this industry possessed hy our section. While wo always hail confidence that the localities in the South within the lim its of the “cotton belt”—and especially those possessing good water power—were pre-em nently adapted to tho profitable manufacture of the staple, among themselves at these meetings are frequently reported—witness tho scones at their conventions in New Orleans, Hel- mn, and Union Springs—hut if these were attempts hy one faction to “intimidate" the other, the Democrats were in no way responsible for them. There has not been the least disturbance or conflict at any Democratic political meeting held iu the Month this year, but everything has boon conducted with a decorum and tem perance contrasting strangely with tho vi olence exhibited at the meetings of the U idiculs who charge the Democrats with being the party of disorder and strife. The scones enacted and threatened in the Radical nominating conventions in the two Districts of Alabama nearest to ns—we do not have to go far from home for exam ples—ore sufficient to show which is tho party «>f passion, violence and “intimida tion.'' >). T. Rapier, the negro nominoo iu tli i Second or Union Springs District, has already explained the manner of his nomination in a published letter. He says that a large party of armed roughs— n it Democratic, hut Radical ronghs, of tho Busteed faction—took control of the convention and would not permit his nomination until they “intimidated” him into the signing of a degrading and cor rupt pledge. He says that there would have been hloodshod if ho had not thus compromised liis political rights and those of his supporters. Now, did anybody ever heal* of stieli a thing being don© at u Democratic convention, or of Demo crats forcing Radicals to do such a thing at their conventions? Tho Radical convention of the Third or Opolika District adjourned without making any nomination for Congress. It is currently reported that there were Rad ical bullies of two factions or personal divisions in attendance on that couven tion, and that there would have lion a violent conflict between thorn if a nomi nation had been attempted ; therefore it was postponed. Did they “intimidate” ach other, or did they only agree to a truce, each hoping to recoivo n. informs- mouts that would “intimidate" the other when they re-assembled ? We shnll see. We published figures, yesterday, show ing that at the lust election iu Aluliama, the negroes iu some of their strong coim- tios voted to the extent of one in every l.j of their population ; while in strong wliito counties tho white vote was only about one iu nine. Was there aiiy “in timidation" of the negroes at that elec tion ? l)o not these figures give the most emphatic contradiction to the charge that could possibly he givou ? Again, regis tration for the election is now going on in Louisiana—one of the Stntos most clam orous for Federal soldiers to prevent Democratic intimidation—and tho daily reports show tbut in New Orleans, where tho whites outnumber tho negroes, tho negroes are registering three of their color to every white man Does this show liny “intimidation.” of the uogrooH in Kellogg’s own State? On the contrary, at least one instance is already reported in which tho negroes there have nsHuultod a white niau for reg istering, and other instances of negroes fraudulently registering: but no act of violence or unfnirness is charged upon a single white mini. There is one kind of “intimidatiou” that bus been extensively prevalent at the South ovor since the entering wodge of “reconstruction." Dr. Maull, a Radical leader, oucouraged it in a speeoli which lie made to his party in this city in 18118, when he told tliom that they ought to use the raw-hide or the hand-snw on any no gro who attempted to vote tho Demo orutic ticket. It is notorious that it many parts of the South to-day it would ho dangerous for n negro to vote the Democratic ticket, und that is the only kind of political “intimidatiou” really prevailing at the South. If tho Attorney General is iu earnest iu his nmuipulut of troops so as to seoure a fair and free election, ho will find in the corroctiou of this abuse a proper field for their opora* tion. 11 to Baptist UUureh, < room*, Empi rest AUbatn* Warehouse. *.p8tf W.U.UUOUE8.

THE CONSERVATIVE VOICE OF NEW YORK. A prominent citizen of Now York visit ing the President yesterday spoke in strong t4jriiiK of tho dangers that might arise from the continued political oppres sion of tho Southern States, not only po litically, but financially. Although u Re publican und u warm supporter of the Administration, he could not bnt foresee that the corruptions of the carpet-bag governments, such us in Louisiana, and ttie disturbed condition of society m the South generally, xmt-t end in bankruptcy aud repudiation in many of the S uthom States, which would m an financial disas ter ail over the President's attent terduy’s J fertile! advocating a national re construction c invention and the iciief ot the Southern Stabs, and did not hesitate to declit o that, while lie might not be willing to wholly indorse tho IfernUl'n views, h » i©cognized broad statesmandi.p at their foundation. President Grant, in reply, expressed himself as personally in favor of extend ing generous aid to the South, lie had always thought that the great crime of the rebellion should have been forgotten ah soou as the Union was restored, and his friends hy putting on any airs of su perior virtue. Ah ! there are tides even in Vermont. Even in Vermont people iiear of things aud discuss them, and havo opinions of their own. And so the other day when they bad au election, they said by a very striking and significant vote : “Judge Poland, you are doubtless a well-meaning man. you did not suppose that tho people whose clothes you held were about to stono Stephen, but you, dear old brass-buttoned patriot, you ought not to be exposed in places where people obviously know tnoro than you do and impose on your good nature.

It is Imrely possible that the result in Judge Poland’s dist ict is a lesson for tho supporters of tho Administration in other districts and other States. Who knows? j A'. Y.

It is true, tboro was a very largo crowd on tho Sabbath from all parts of tho oouutry and city, and amoug so many there wore some that would put on extras ; bnt this is the case amoug whites as well as blacks.

I ptmsnto for the suddeu chnngo iu the sys- j tern 4»f bibor, that m a question which in- terests the whole nation and might be c. | proper subject for tho consideration of | statesmen. THE CONDITION OF THE SOUTH. The Pio.idont expressed himself as sincerely desirous of leaving tho Southern States to take care of their own political affairs aud of non-interfercuco on the pirt of the Federal Government. But what was he to do? The fact of the existence of law- leanness and violence in some of the States is undeniable, lteputablo men and officials of high standing come forward and represent that peace cannot he preserved and life protected without the aid of Uuit<vl States troops. To bo sure their state ments would not ho sufficient to warrant intervention. Tho constitution and tho laws declare the circumstances under which the Federal Government shall in terfere in the affairs of a State; but pre liminary orders and tho lnovomout of troops aro legitimate and proper, “and my nope,” said tho President, “is that the morui effect of the presence of troops in Home localities liny render their active use unnecessary.” Under the representa tions in ado to tho President by Southern citizens, and tho facts brought officially to his knowledge by the Attorney General, ho believes ho should bo guilty of neglect of duty if ho should neglect tot.ike stops for tho prevention of tho threatened evils. the attorney general’s p art is AN SUIT’. Tho fact is that the President is not wholly satisfied with the Attorney Gene ral and does not tliuuk him for his hot zoal. Williams professes to have a very complete spy system nil over tho South, and he presunis to tho President reports from his emissaries which show that uu exteusive conspiracy against tho Union exists iu the Southern States. Some ot tbeso secret service uiou piotoiid to tho knowledge of plots for the extermination of all the black race und for the assassi nation of all Federal office-holders, hut their accusations are of a general charac ter mid they always fail to give explicit information. The Attorney General be lieves them, nevertheless, and :s rabid ou tho subject of Democratic disloyalty. His fierce partisanship luis already led the President into many scrapes and is likely to produce further trouble. President Grant knows that “Williams needs to 1)0 driven with a tight rein,” aud hence he is anxious to get hack to Wa-hiugton. lie does not approve of the publication of tho Washington dispatches, or of the tone tho Attorney General evidently desires to impart to the nows in regard to the South ern movements, lie has expressed th<* ho'iof that Williams would he well pleas d lo rush him into extreme measures if he could, and on this account will lie all the nmro caution * iu his action. H sides, the President does not whoby roll-li the idea of all the Southern deh*ga ions rushing off first to Williams und securing his alii mice before uink iig their attack on head quarters. For some r« ason or another tho Attorney General seems averse to allow ing any Southern politicians to reach the President’s ear befoie he has heard their opinions and compared notes with them himself. “I had to go to Washington first to see Williams," said one of these Southern delegates to ino a day or two since; “It was useless my seeing the President until 1 had made it all light with Williams. ” ‘l ho President is not n man to relish this power assumed behind the throne* The Vermont Flection.
