Greatly Mistaken.—The Atlanta Con

it is an unintentional mistake, but it is
an egregious one nevertheless.
The Democratic papers of Alabama
charge that Gov. Lewis, w ith a view to

Lauderdale counly, Ala., gavo the
Democratic euudidulo for Governor l,3fi8
votes in 1872. A primary election was
held last week for llio choice of Demo
cratic candidates, and the party polled
2,132 votes, or a gain of 771 since the last
election. There is no doubt that North
Alabama is coming down with an “aval-
anohe" of while voters for the Democratic
ticket in November.
The Mobile 11({/inter of Sunday reports
considerable excitement in Gainesville,
Ala., caused by tho conduct of two ne
groes. One of them set fire to a house in
town, but the extent of the duinago is not
stated. The other, named Warren Dow,
resisted arrest for riotous conduct, and es
caped, but w»m being pursued at the lust
accounts. The citizens wore guarding t he
town at night.
It in now currently reported that both

Oar exultation over his escape on the oc

will ho greatly depressed by his treacher
ous tuking-ofT in this way.
Ham Baud, postmaster at Atlanta, rushes
into print to rebuke Goneral Toombs for
Iun late speech at Madison. He thinks
that tho Gcuernl has “gone hack” on
General Grant, because he called him “a
little monarch," and says that Goneral
Toombs’ senseless routings are intolera
ble.” No donbt a little scolding will ocoa-
sionally do Goneral Toombs good, but
considering Sum’s ollioiul position it is
doubtful whether he eau do justice to the
subject and attend to his official duties at
the same time. We think it likely that
iu tho effort to do both hewassomuoh
distracted as slightly to misunderstand
what Goneral Toombs meant in saying
that Grant was “only a liltlo monarch.”
It might not have signiflod any opposition
to a third term and the continuance of
Ham’s rations under it.
An Independent.
Col. R. L. Mott uunoimeus himself a
eandid.de for Congross through our ool-
nmuH to-day, and wo presume that tbo
announcement will “hoad off” any Radical
nomination in this District. Col. Mott
truly states liis political position in the
past, but ho is singularly reticent as to his
opinions upon measures now before the
country. Tho people of the District, wo
are confident, will not bo satisfied with
this. Those measures, us well ns tho
general Federal policy of dealing with tho
South, too nearly couoorn the rights and
interests of every man among us to bo ig
nored or evaded in this way. The people
willtknow for what ns well as for whom
they are voting.
Tho Democrats of the District have
their own candidate in the Hold, brought
out by themselves—a man regularly nud *
fairly nominated—a nun of prouounced
opinions upon nil living questions, and
with ability aud experience well fitting
him for the position. We are satisfied
that thoy will support him unanimously
and enthusiastically, aud eleot him by u
triumphant majority.

No Boron for |tlae Third AloHninn
District!
Aud now comes the cruel announce
ment, through tho Montgomery Mew* of
yesterday, that the bacon sent to Opelika
aud Seale for the negroes of the Hd Con-
gresbonal District of Alabama has to be
returned to Moutgomery, as “the law of
Congress only authorizes its distribution
to those who reside on the Alabarun, War
rior and Torubigbeo rivers!
Did anybody evor hear the like of this
before ? How did Pelham get the coutrol
of that lmcon ? and why wasn’t he smart
enough to have it distributed before his
little game was found out? Do the ne
groes of tho 3d Congressional District in-
toud to out rust their “rights” again to the
keeping of a man who can't hold on to a
good thiug when ho gets hold of it—who,
instead of plueiug it where it will do
the most good, suffers it to slip from his
and their hands as a thing surreptitiously
obtained ?
The proceeding is a rank violation of
the 15th Amendment and the suspended
Civil Rights bill. What are these meas
ures worth to tho negroes if there
are no “porvisions” in them ? Is
not a colored voter in Russell or
Lee county worth as much to tho party,
and entitled to as much favor from tho
Government, as one in Montgomery ?
Equal rights indeed! when Rapier and
Hayes can proudly invite their colored
friends to como up and share tho rations
of the Government, but there is not n
rasher for the fuithful constituents of
booby Pelham !
Wo wash our bauds of this whole
greasy business. Wo have stoutly main
tained from the first that tho 3d District
of Alabama was overflowed—by one flood
at least—aud we could have proved it if
Democratic or scripturul evidence had
beeu admissible. But Pelham had the
whole matter in his bauds, aud hoo liow
he has bungled it l The negroes may
trust him again, hut lie is not the man
that we will rely on for our buoon. Hon
est Taul Bradford would not deceive us at
loast, and wo believe that he him sense
and tact onongh to get an equal share for
his constituents when tho Governmout is
dealing out bacon by the hundreds of
thousands of pounds.

puts the case fairly and squarely thus :
Peace and happiness are inconsistent
with the rule of plundering carpet-lmg-
gers. Their trade is dissension, and
the dying hu-band ere its spirit took its
flight, and rent them to the widowed one
fur away; they cheered the fainting boy
into life, and the touch of their soft bauds
had a healing halm for the burning brow
on which they were placed. Kind words
for the despondent; gentle acts for those
racked with pain, and tears pure aud sym-

' come to our minds, and in thinking of
these women wo have wondered if in tho
great hereafter departed spirits will have
sex, for if they do the angel spirits of
women will rest nearest to the throne of
God, and their voices will hear the sweet
est song, and their harps resound with
tho sweetest strain in praise of that God
who rules over North and South, and or
ders things in accordance with his great
design. We meaut not to have said so
much, but the subject is prolific, and our
poverty of treatment is compensated for
by our hvaing thought on a subject so en
nobling.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE FOURTH
< 0.\iiRKSNIOX AL DISTRICT.
1 have been requested by friends to
present myself as a candidate for election
to the Congress of tho United States. I
havo given to this flatteriug request some
consideration, and have concluded I
would stand as such, and solicit the suf
frages of my fellow-citizens.
In thus announcing myself, idl that I
doom necessary to declare is, that I was a
zealous Whig, opposed to secession nnd
the war, and since the termination of the
war I have used every endeavor to restore
harmony, good feeling and good govern-
ut to my people. My course and posi
tion heretofore taken aud pursued are
well known to my fellow-citizens, and are
hotter guarantees of what my course in
the future may he than any declaration I
might now make; but still, I will odd, as
I think I may do with propriety, that all
my interests are identified with my fellow-
citizeus, and that if elected, all my efforts
will ho given to secure aud promote the
best interests and permanent welfare of
tho whole people of my District and State.

“August <*, 1873. M.”
We received the flowers arid fruit sent
by our fair correspondent, nnd at once
sent them off to gladden the heart of a
little girl, whose fate is very oloselv linked
with ours. It will make her feel happier
to know her husband’s efforts are being
appreciated, and in bet joy she will bond
and kiss that smaller girl on her knee,
aud feel she has found friends to compen
sate her for the dear ones left in her far
off Northern homo. It was a hard thing
to leave tho spot where the ancestors of two
hundred years aro buried, above tlurhlue
Schuylkill, hut a woman's faith and a good
wife’s love led her to cast her falo willing
ly with ours in this Southern land, which
ere this has been to her a terra ineor/nita,
or worse, a land of fabulous terrors, and
fiery hate for those north of the Potomac.
One of tho popular delusions North, is
the hauteur and undisguised dislike which
Southern Indies are supposed to entertain
for people from the Northern States.
“Tho gentlemen will receive yon and your
wife kindly, for Southern men are pro
verbially courteous and gallant, but you
will be completely ignored by Southern
ladies, and your wife will bo compelled to
social isolation.” We did not believe this,
as we did not beliove the many other lies
that have kept ho many away from this
fair land, and resolving to come, she'to
whom we sent the fruit and flowers,
bravely came to share whatever fate was
li store for us. But tho threntouod Up is
ralley, on a nearer approach, 1ms turned
out to bo a land of fruit and flowers, and
tho Southern sisters havo taken her by tho
hand nud drawn her to their hearts, mid
all thut is good in our natures is inode
better by this more thuij generous recep
tion. But tho falsehood has gone abroad
about tho bitterness of Southern ladies,
aud it might bo well to look nt tho cause.
When the war broke out there could bo
uo kindly feelings in th< hearts of women
on either side, for they saw their, broth
ers, husbands, sons nnd lovers going out
to soldiers’ graves for a cause each deemed
right; aud woman’s heart of faith was
more sorely tested in those black days than
wore the men who went down before tho
blaze of artillery, or fell in tho jungle, or
gave up lifo for God aud Fatherland iu
tho hospital or cruel prison. Leaving out
the questions iuvolved in the cause of
battle, men never fought and suffered
with a grander heroism than did those
poorly fed, ill clad, never paid troops of
tho Confederacy ; and if the outlin ing of
fatigue without complaint, and danger
without alarm, throwing lifo and property
into tho Hcale with tho sword be tho tost
of patriotism, then, indeed, do they de
serve tho name. The suffering at tlmt
foarf nl front of tiro that t Ire I died from
the Atluntic to tho Western plains, and
extended down to the warm Gulf wm fear
ful, but it was only tbo shadow of suffer
ing compared to thut which was endured
iu the ouco happy homes of the land.
Many u brave hoy fell with tho blood flow
ing earthward from his heart, hut the
bullet that struck him stopped not when
the tide of his lifo had run out, wont on
and on, till it reached a homo aud settled in
a mother’s lioart, or struck down a loved
one whoso young life was crushed by the
blow that sent the young soldier to his
grave. The charge, tue terrible struggle,
tho night, wounded on the battle field,
tho forced march, tho short rations, tbe
prison and tho escape wero the things
that tested tho physique and pluck of
men. But the real suffering of tho war
was in tho anxious lieurts of women, who
felt the blow when it came, nnd in dread
anticipation of its ever coming, suffered
in silenco through tho long days aud
nights of gloomy years. And that wuti'or-
ing was so wide-spread that sympathy be
came mute, for she could not Root he tho
woes of all. Many a fair-haired boy wont
proudly out, with a mother's blessing,
though he did not kuo the tear that fol
lowed , but ho never returned—ho was
garnered iu, in one of those harvests of
death that dot tho land and make our hills
historic. Many a husband kissed his wife
an l little ones, nml wont down for God
nnd country to the valley of death. Many
a maiden, whose young heart was filled
with its idol, dour to her ns Heaven itself,
kissed him and hope ! for tho happier day
of peace, and tho longed-for time, but it
came not; tho bridegroom had gone at
tlio summons of the mystic angel to await
his bride in the Laud beyond the river of
death. Yes, theirs was the suffering, and
theirs are the wounds that cannot heal—
for tho heart of a woman evor bleeds when
death tears the loved ones from it. We
cuuuot wonder, thou, that in tho South
women should have felt more keeely the
loss of that cause for which their dear
oil's died; while the Southern soldiers^
more familiar with their foe, had grown
to respect the energy and courage shown j
in opposition. When the war closed it j
was but natural that Southern women
should see in the blue-coated soldiers
about them the slayers of their dear ones
and the conquerors of their land. Every
feeling revolted against showing a regard
they could not feel, and when political
plunderers followed, it was to be expected
that Southern women would step aside
and avoid the contagion that every honest
man. North and South, wool i loathe ; nnd
