Gov. Smith.—The Atlanta correspond*
ont of tho Augusta Chronicle writes in his
last letter : “I heard to-day from the lips
of a prominent candidate for Governor
that Gov. Janus M. Smith bad snid ho
would not ho a candidate for re-election.
Ho is represented uh saying that tho office,
aside from its harrassing ernes and mo
mentous responsibilities, was one poorly
remunerative and exceedingly laborious,
and that for those reasons he longed for
tho quiet peace of private life.”
_ «
Tin: Now York papers of Tuesday say
that tho Beecher-Tilton trial in the City
Court is set for tho first Monday in Octo-
Iter, before Judge Nelson. So wo are
likely aoon to have a re lmsh of tho scan
dalous testimony. A roportorof the Her
ald represents one of Itcocher’s lnwyer’s
as saying that the letters and confessions
of Beecher will ho objected tons evidence
and probably ruled out; that Beechor will
be acquitted, and even if convicted, Ply.
mouth Church will no! give him up ns its
pustor.
Tiik Maine election occurs on the second
Monday in September (next Monday;,
not the first, as wo erroneously stated tho
other day. Tho Now York Herald ex-
peots a light vote and a reduction of the
usual Republican majority, and the elec,
tion of a Legislature that will return Han
nibal Hamlin to tho United States Sen
ate. Of the Congressional elections it
says that the lie pub lie. turn “have been in
fear hi f tho loss of at least ouo member
of Congress; Imt t' • lvcciit Southern
outrages and I 1 tit's instruc
tions concerning them will, it in thought
save the whole Mam delegation. In fact,
Southern outrages jus', now are esteemed
a godsend to tl o Northern Republicans.”
The Augusta Chronicle'* Atlanta cor
respondent lately rcpreflsntod Hon. 11. il.
Hill ns disappointed and sore because he
failed to receive iho Democratio nomina
tion for Congress in tbo Ninth District.
Tho corruspi ndont corrected this in his
last letter, and tho Chronicle (which is
opposed to Mr. Hill's nominate n) makes
tho amende bauds" mety, as follows:
It appears thai injustice has been done
Mr. Hill. He was neither “chafed” nor
disappointed ut Ins failure to receive the
nomination for Congress in tho Ninth
Dint not. We have it from undoubted
Authority that Mr. Hill uovor lifted a lin
ger to get tho nomination, and that .he
bus never felt or expressed tho slightest
dissatisfaction or disappointment about
tho matter. Tho truth is, that Mr. Hill
thinks the failure to nominate him a per
sonal good fortune to himself. He is not
only satisfied with tho nomination of Col.
Garnett McMilliav, but if it were neces
sary to defeat a Radical, Mr. Ildl would
cheerfully stump the District for Col. Mo-
Milieu's election.
Mori: Arrests at Eufaula!—Tlit
Montgomery Adrerliatr of yesterday
stated that Judge K. M. Kail's was still
hanging around Montgomery, and that it
was supposed by somo he win trying to
get out new warrants for the arrest of
citizens of Eufaula. The Eiifanla Time*
of the same date states that l'. S. Mar-
shuts Williford and Unudolph visited its
city on Thursday, with warrants issued
l*y Commissioner Rurke of Montgomery,
under which they urrostod the following
citizens of Eufaula*. G. L, Comer, Mag
istrate; T. IX Patterson, City Marshal;
Gen. Alpheus Raker, James M. Ruford,
Esq., Win. H. Courtney. Policeman ; C.
C. Hkillnitui, 1C. J. iilack, editor Eufaula
oVVtt/rj K. D. Shropshire, editor Eufaula
Tims*.
Tho Time* says that its oditor is inno
cent of any* violation of tho law, and
does not know for what ho and the other
citizens of Eufaula are arrested, except
upon a goueral charge of conspiring to
intimidate Keils by exposing his mal
feasance in office. We wish them a
speedy ami safe deliverance, which wo
doubt not they will receive ; uud not for
themselves only, but for thoir community
a deliverance from its chief mischief-
maker.

We heartily wish that it may provo to
ho true—that special dispatch to tho Now
York Tribune (copied elsewhere) which
says that the President contemplates tho
removal of the pestiferous Federal office
holders of tho 8juth as one moans of re
storing quiet in this sectiou. There is
no doubt that it would contribute greatly
towards tho quieting of such excitements
ami putting au end to such misrepresen
tations as are now cur rout. Many of tho
Federal office-holders have been chiefly
instrumental in Rotting up tho bad feel
ing now existing. Wo need only to refer
to the course of nearly the whole gang of
them in Now Orleans, to Rusteod and
othors iu Alabumn, and to the custom
house officials at Sevauuah. Let Federal
officers know that they have their official
duties to atteud to, aud that they are to
let the people m-uage election matters
course of the Federal officials in the
South as “the tap-root «»f all the trouble”
which has “perpetuatod the frightful
ini<V"V«riimtut of the post six or seven
year** ’ It concludes a sensible article on
the it jeot by saying : “We are glad to
learn that the purp le has been expressed
by the Administration to make sweeping
removals of office-holders of the politi*
cian class in 'some of the States, and
| put in their plsces men known to be hon-
I Git aud capable. This is the most effect
ive step toward reform and good govern
ment that has yet been taken, and will do
vastly more g<N»d than any coercive meas
ures. The President will deserve the
thanks of all law-abiding citizens if he
adopts this policy.”
Lot proper representations bo made to
him at Washington, aud at Atlanta, if he
comes to that city, and we may yet have
the pleasure of seeing many of tho fo-
menters of trouble at tho Mouth “hoisted
with their own petard."
A RADICAL MOUTHERS CONVEN
TION.
A month ago it was announced that
Senator Morton, of Indiana, ex-Oovernor
Clayton, of Aikansas, and other Radical
politicians, Lad held a caucus at Hot
Springs and agreed upon the call of a
convention of their party at Atlanta, for
the purpose of representing to Congress
(ho condition of tho ftouthorn .States. It
was charged at the time that this was but
a step preliminary to tho stirring up of
conflicts between the whites and blacks,
so as to obtain Fedoral intervention in tho
affairs of the Mouth. Wo all know how
Ibis programme has boon carried out so
far, with a success even exceeding tho an
ticipations of tho plotters. It seems, how
ever, that tbo convention is still to be
held, and that tho 12th of October is tho
day for its meeting. Dispatches from
Washington report that it lias not only
been endorsed by tho Republican Con
gressional Committee, blit that it “has
the unqualified approval of the President
and members of the Cabinot." It is also
added that it is tbo intention of the Pres
ident uud severul members of thedabiuet
to attend the convention personally, to
gether with leading statesmen and capi
talists who desire to learn the true condi
tion of the .South,
If (he Convention is really to be attend
ed by the President and his Cabinet, and
by Northern men sincerely desirous to
| learn tho true condition of tho Mouth,
what a pity it is that the Convention is to
bo a one-sided party affair. Why are not
all tho representative men of tho Mouth
invited to attend it, or all tho people of
tbo Mouth requested to send delegates ?
Wo are told, it is truo, that not a single
Federal office-holder is to be admitted,
and this will shut out some of the most
active and unscrupulous enemies of tho
white people of tho South. Rut tho
office-wrier* are equally interested, and
even more rapacious, and we find no inti
mation that they are to bo excluded ; in
deed the exclusion of both tho office
holders ami office-sockors of the Southern
Radical party would leave so few whites
to go to Atlanta as to make the whole
affair appear ludicrous enough.
Caro jh taken to excludo the representa
tives of the great body of tho whites, hy
the requirement that tho delegates must
bo “men entitled to respect and confi
dence by reason of their loyalty during
tho rebellion.” So tho exclusion of tho
Federal office holders docs not by any
means make room for the representatives
of tho white men of tho Mouth.
Wero it not for tho statement that the
President aud members of the Cabinet
will atteud this convention, we should ad
vise that tho Democrats of the South take
no action concerning it. But if it bo re
ally true that the President is coming, his
great error in seeking to loam tho truth
about the political condition of tho South
from only one of its political partioH ought
not to make ns indifferent ns to what he
may learn. We think that the whito peo
ple of tho South ought to send delegates
to Atlunta at the same time. They may
not be admitted into the exclusive Radi
al Convention, but they will nevertheless
find au opportunity to expose the motives,
correct the misrepresentations uud meet
the charges of the ltudical delegates. They
might have to meet And deliberate sepa
rately, but Gen. Grant could not refuse
them a hearing, utid he could not but ho
struck with the remarkable contrast be
tween the two U“HoiuhlngoH. It seems to
us that the attendance of tho Executive
officers of the Federal Government would
give to this Radical Convention an impor
tance which w'o should not overlook, nml
that wo outi, by proper uetiou, nuiko the
occasion work the vindication of tho
South rather than her condemnation.
What say our brethren of tho Southern
press ? ^ ^
THE TRUE REMEDY.
SOUTHERN OFFICE-HOLDERS TO HE REMOVED.
Special to the X. Y. Tribune.]
Washinoton, September 7.—Coupled
with the present vigorous measures for
quieting the South, others of n different
nature are under consideration. It bus
been found that under the practice of the
Senate each Republican member of that
body is allowed to have absolute control
of the patron »go of his section, so thut
tho President is obliged to make such
nominations for all local offices ns are do*
iimudod bv Seuators. In several South
ern States tho whole patronage has thus
been thrown by the Senate into the hands
of a siugle tuau, there being but one
Republican from the State. The effect of
this has now been found to he that
neatly nil the branches of the public ser
vice i:i somo of theso States is in the
hands of men totally unfit to hold Gov
ernment positions. The whole ground is
being closely examined, aud numerous
changes may be looked for soon. In one
or two States it is the prescut purpose to
remove nearly every Federal office-holder,
and in their places put mou known at tho
various departments to be fitted for the
positions, aud to do this whether the va
rious Seuators interested agree to it or
not, and throw the responsibility of the
rejection of auit&ble men upon the Sen
ate. Many of tho complaints which roach
the departments from various parts of
the South inrogard to these Federal office
holders are known at tho departments to
be well founded, and tho iutention is to
remedy tbo evil whorover it exists iu the
manner indicated.

tho calling of a constit
tion, aud stated that if the nominee of
the Democracy for the Legislature would
not pledge hiniMtif to vote for one, if the
negroes would send for huu (Toombs; bo
would cotuo and take tbo stump against
tho while man, whoever ho might be.
The present constitution was tho work of
n parcel of dirty dogs, thieves aud ras
cals, and no decent white man should ac
knowledge it. Even if he approved every
line therein he would overturn it if he
hud tho power.
General Toombs violently denounced
the legislative amendment in reference to
the payment of bonds, ns a fraud, and ns
not effecting the object it pretended to
effect. Ho was very severe upon a certain
State Senator, whom he denounced as be
ing ono of the grandest kpaves in Geor
gia, and expressed the opinion that he was
iu the pay of tho bondholders.
TUB OOV&BNOn&HlP.
After dwelling on this subject at some j
length, General Toombs referred to the j
fact that ho ami his friond, Mr. Jones, of I
Burke county, were tho only two men iu !
tho State who were disqualified by the
fourteenth amendment to the United
Slates constitution, while a cullcc, or a i
native of Timbuotoo, could assume piivi-
leges that ho could not. Home of his en- ]
thusiastic friends had announced that he ,
would bo u candidate for Governor. Well, 1
if they could stand it, ho could ; aud if t
ever was elected Governor, ho would j
Governor sure enough. Of one thing I
the people might r<st as>ured : no Yankee j
troops would put their feet upon tho
of Georgia to interfere

the Sffth.
Mend discreet men, untrammelled, un
instructed ; men who have the good of
the county at heart; and if they in their
wisdom should renominate one or both of
the present nominees, then the people will
rally to their support What we want is
unity of action, and we cannot get it un
less some steps are taken to reconcile tho
people.
Wo call upon all good citizens to unite
with us in our effort to save the county.

Although Radical politicians, who hope
thereby to accomplish their Imso and self
ish purposes, are continually crying out
that tho Houih is disloyal, and thut no
man can live hero unless ho is a Demo
crat, tho testimony of tho distinguished
Federal officer who commands tho “Mili
tary Department of the South,” and who
light to know if such things are really
true, is of n far different character.
Major General Irwin McDowell, in ic-
sponding to a toast at tho Banquet of the
Army of tho Potomac, among other things
uaul:
“It lias been my duty, within rt short
time past, to go all over our Southern
country, through Kentucky and Tennes
see, made memorable by the acts of those
who now honor us with thoir presence,
down through that samo march by which
the Goncr.il of our Army—then a Major
General—went to tlio son through Chatta
nooga with its Lookout, and through
Missionary Ridgo and Atlanta; through
Fort Pickens, which was peppered all tho
year long ; Fort Pulaski, nud Fort Sum
ter, and all over South Carolina. I have
brought buck, among other results, a deep
and firm impression that there is no part
of our couutiy •/ do not except tern Con-
neclicut or Mamiehuxttts- in which the
authority of the Tnited State* in more
thoroughly, more firmly, am! more tin re.
Hereedty achnoieledgrd than it h in our
Sout/urn State,if
This is tho emphatic testimony of au
officer who lias not dragged his military
robes through tbo mud and filth of Radi
calism, but has discharged his official du
ties with tho same degree of fairness and
impartiality that cbnractotizcd then iiuiu-
istratiou of Gou. Hancock That General
McDowell speaks truly, every Democratic
State and county in th.* South cb-arly
proves. It is only in Radical States and
comities that outrages are perpetrated,
and it is ouly there that disorder aud cor
ruption prevail. Look at the proud old
Strtto of Georgia, and our own noble
couuty of Pike. Peace and good older
prevail in nil their b >rders, and the people
are prosperous and happy. South Caro
lina is torn aud rent by It .dical violence
and corruption, and Barbour county, in
this State, is in the name condition. Why
this great contrast ? Because Rudicalwu
brings to the front and puts into power,
to oppress, degrade nud rob the people,
the meanest and mo.it corrupt men to be
found, both black uud white. Couvicted
felons and notorious thieves are put into
office, and in order to cover up their r
ealities nud
that he (P.J could buy all the negro votes
of Russell couuty with two onnks of bacou.
This was repeated Saturday iu the pres
ence of several colored meu, who ex
pressed considerable iudiguation at the
idea. We suppose Pelham expects, of
course, to buy up colored votes with the
“overflowed” now in tbo depot.—I}it**rll
Itreorder.
—One notable effect of the war—and
one that has contributed as much an any
oiLw M^gleVmuRo to paralyze Southern
Agriculture—w tho constant gravitation
of tue Aegroes to the towns and cities.
Hero tho<* live in miserable huts and hov
els, deprived of proper food and vcutila-
tion, and the prey of • *< ry species of
epidemic and disease. Those who re
main in the rural districts are but too
frequout y of lazy habits, prefer desulto
ry jobs to steady employment, aud eke
out a precarious liviug by stealing from
neighboring farmers. Thus agriculture
suffers not ouly tho loss of aproducer.but
the community is harrassed by a waste
ful, tliiovihli and improvident consumer.
The traveling correspondent of the Cin
cinnati Commercial sonds that paper in
terest iug st atistics, which show the extent of
influx of the negro population into some
of tho Southern cities since tho war. Iu
Nashville, for instance, in 18(H), tho white
population was 13,043, and the black
3,24ft. In 1870 it stood 10,140 white, or
an increase of about 30 per cent., and
0,700 black, or au increase of uoarly 200
per cent. In Memphis, during the same
decade, the white population increased
from 18,730 to24,7.Vi, aud the black from
3,882 to 13,471. Tho sntno ratio of in-
retwo prevails with most of the other
Southern cities. As a natural result of
this condition of things; the jails and
workhouses are always full, and the ne
groes are reported by the statistics to be
dying sixty per cent, faster than the
whites.—Haiti more (luzettc.
