FOB CONOBESS—FOURTH DISTRICT,
HENRY R. HARRIS, of Meriwolhor,
In view of the threatening aspect of
affairs at Now Orleans, the Secretary of
the Navy has revoke*! the sale of Home
old monitors there, and they will no doubt
be employed as part of the navy to keep
Kellogg on his throno !
Tub Now Orloans Bulletin learns from
reliable authority that at most of the reg
istration offices in Louisiana the negroes
are out-registering the whites teu to one.
This does not look much like “intimida
tion” of the negroes.
Mrs. Eliza Du Busk, of Tennessee, is
reportod to have come to her death from
a wonnd that most porsons would have
regarded os trilling, and probably she so
considered it at first. Hhe accidentally
stuck a pin into one of her fingers, under
the nail; erysipelas followed, terminating
in her death.
A New York dispatch of the Hth inst.
says: “The Commercial learns from pri
vate correspondence from Liverpool that
it is confidently believed that the stock of
cotton there is much larger than the run
ning account, and that the excess will
turn out, on the 511st of December, to be
larger than last year, which was about
120,(MX) bales.”
A letter signed by Paul Strobach ahd
other leudors of his wing of the Radical
party of Montgomery, and addressed to
“Hon. O. W. Bryant,” has been picked
up in the streets of Mobilo. In it the
signers inform Bryant that “the bolters
are fighting Rapier secretly, and the State
ticket openly, and we want help.” They
propose to pay Bryant to eauvess the Dis
trict for them. Tho “bolters” roferrod to
are the so-called Pat Robinson wing of
tho Radical party of Montgomery. TIiuh
they go into the fight, split into factions,
and each distrusting tho other.
The Supreme Court of Georgia, on
Tuesday, rondored judgments of affirm•
mice in the following cusps from the
Cattohoochee docket: Barnett Liue of
Steamers vs. Black mar & Chaudlor, from
Museogeo; Bray A Brothers vs. J. McK.
Gunn, from Randolph; John Hammock
vs. the State aud Robert E. Hammock vs.
the State, from Randolph; J. Rhodes
Browne vs Eagle and Pbeuix Manufac
turing Company, from Muscogee. Judg
ments of reverxal wore rendered in the
following eases: John UighfioUl et at.
vs. K. T. Phelps ct al. v from Randolph;
Edward McDonald vs. Henry O. Reall,
from Randolph; Casper Jouos vs. John
C. Currier et ul., from Randolph; Eliza
beth J. Moungur vs. 11. II. Duke, admin
istrator. from Randolph.
Kkpithino a man hail after a number of
respectable and unimpouched witnesses
havo sworn to uti alibi in his case, must
be something new in criminal prosecu
tions. This was what was done at Mobilo
in tho case of tho prisoners from Sumter
county. Two negroes sworo that llenfro
ami others killed Billings on Saturday
ovoniug ; and two white men and two ne
groes swore positively that they saw Ren
fro ut his own house, eight or nine miles
distant from the place at which Hillings
was killed, at about tho precise time of
the killing. Tho two negroes last men
tioned swore that they were working with
Renfro in his field, saving fodder, at tho
time. And yet the Commissioner refused
bail in the ense of Renfro.
Wo have not yet exatniuod the testi
mony in tho ease of the other prisoners
refused bail.
THE GEORGIA EI.El'TIOX.
Elwllon Incidents.
Tim most lamentable incident of the
elections in Georgia was tho killing of
Capt. J. II. Hunter, Representative of
Rrooks county in the last Legislature, ami
candidate for re-election. A special to
the Atlanta Con*titution says that the
difficulty grow out of a challenged vote.
Capt. Hunter challenged the vote of Nich
olas Thompson, iu tho forenoon, and in a
short time afterwards he was assaulted by
Thompson and Bou Johnson (colored),
the latter striking him a fearful blow with
a stick, and Thompson proceeded to stab
him, the knife euteriug the left breast
and penetrating tho lungs. The attend-
ing physicians still think him in a hope
less condition. Both Thompson and
Johnson are in jail.
It is also said that the negroes fired
house in the vicinity, hoping that the
whites would thereby bo drawn away from
the jail, and they could' release the pris
oners. But the trick did not succeed.
There were attempts by tho negroes at
both LaGrange and llogausville, iu Tvoup
county, to get up disturbances, but they
were frustrated. They withdrew from the
polls when they found that they were go
ing to be beaten, with a view of sotting
up tho cry of intimidation. A negro ap
pointed as a delegate to Chattanooga head
ed them at LaG range. Ho appears to
havo been determined to make out a
plausible “case."
There was a bit of a fight at George
town, growing out of tho attempt of some
negroes to abuse one of their color for
voting tho Democratic tickets. White
Democrats interfered to protect him, and
some negroes had thoir heads cracked, but
uo great damage was done.
A fight, resulting in the death of Mr.
John Hay, at Cuthbcrt, grew out of tho
excitiug personal contest between Tuinlin
aud Edwards for Representative of Ran
dolph county. Mr. Hay was shot by Geo.
Oliver, a man with one leg. Oliver was
shot in two or three places, but not dan
gerously hurt, and it is reported that a ne
gro was also wounded in this fray.
ITS POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE.
Wo have for some timo maintained that
the Radical party of the South was utterly
demoralized and disorganized, and tho re
sult of the Georgia elections goes to
prove it. There appear to havo been
only five or six counties iufctho State in
which the Radicals exhibited any showing
of efficient organization. Everywhere
else they have been badly beaten. Espe
cially whore they ran negroes for their
candidates was their discomfiture the
most signal. Even in counties iu which,
knowing that the negroes had considera
ble majorities, they pretty generally paid
up their poll taxes so as to enable them to
make the contest with all their forces,
they have been beaten two or three to
one. It is a complete Waterloo defeat,
that leaves them Uispiiitod and hopeless,
after they had put forth their utmost
strength aud used their greatest exer
tions.
We aro aware that the Civil Rights agi
tation brought many white men to the
pulls who havo not often voted within the
lust eight or ton years, and caused quite
a number of white Republicans to vote
with the Democrats. We are also aware
that the negroes themselves are divided
about Civil Rights—many of them pre
ferring not to push that issue. But these
facts do not account in full for the Radi
cal weakness and disorganization as show n
by the Georgia elections.
The negroes, left to themselves, aro in
capable of efficient political organization.
Noarly every meeting which they have
held this fall in Georgia and Alabama at
tests this fact. As long as they “tied to”
the carpet-baggers and few Southern-born
white Radicals, they had controlling and
directing spirits among them. The ne
groes of fhis generation havo grown up
under white management and always felt
thoir dependence upon it. They prize
their present “freedom” beyond every
thing else, and make it a matter of boast.
But they have bad no real independence,
notwithstanding. Their early reveronce
for and later obedience to the carpet-bag
gers was really a political servitude as ab
ject as llieir former personal bondage.
As long ns it continued they were mu-
mouverod into party line with the preci
sion of veteran troops under a military
loader. But when they lost this leader
ship they lost their discipline and effioien-
Wheu it came to negro leadership,
one thought himself as good as another,
and all aspired to bo leaders. In our own
county we have seen that while a portion
of them, headed by a shifty agitator, de
sired to run candidates of their own color,
the more quiet ami considerate wanted to
take one of the Democratic nominees.
The leudor who sought to make the race
issue succeeded in getting negro candi
dates, but they did not get half tho votes
of their race. Many of tho negroes voted
for tho Democrats, and many others did
not vote at all. We heard one colored
man say, just after tho candidates of his
party had boon agreed upon, that he would
not vote for any negro in the country, and
uo doubt this was the feeling of many of
bin raco.
We are far from deploring this disor
ganization of the negroes, or from think
ing that it will result to their disadvan
tage. On the contrary, it only proves a
growing independence among them. They
are uo longer driven to tho polls like
sheep to tho shambles. When any raco or
class of men begin to think and net for
themselves, they lose tho unity of action
belonging to those who are controlled by
masters or leaders. It is only tho war
fare made upon them by Radical Con
gresses and Presidents that has kept tho
white men of the South for so long a time
nearly uuited, and this year more united
thau over. Unjust and oppressive laws
will generally have this effect. But there
are uo such unjust and oppressive laws
bearing upon the negroes. Tho more in
telligent among them perceive this, and
with its perception old prejudices and
antagonisms decline. A considerable
breach has been made in the wall of party
exclusiveness^ behind which they of late
entrenched themselves. More Democrat ic
clubs composed of colored men havo this
your been formed in the South than in the
whole previous eight years of negro free
dom, and the work still goes on. Grow
ing independence and intelligence begets
enlarging freedom of party bondage. It
will no doubt continue to progress until
the color of the skill will no longer bo
regarded as the badge of Radical parti
sanship, aud there will be a general ap
preciation by tho intelligent and well-
disposed negroes of the fact that their
best and only reliable friends are the
white people umoug whom they live and
labor.

it is a foregone conclusion that Wliitely

has heretofore been such a tornado of
Radical majority, lie says the people of
the old Second turned out, en masse, to
hear of the great doctrines of Democ
racy, and that many old lino Whigs, who
have heretofore held aloof from the paity
on accouut of their antipathy to the name
of Democrat, were fully converted, and

shoulders to the wheel for tho overthrow ;
of the great outrages which tho social .

A reporter of the New York Graphic
gives an interview with ox-Governor War-
moth, of Louisiana, from which we ex
tract the following opiuion expressed by
Wartpoth on the third term question :
“Ho (Grant) will come to the Republi
can Convention with the solid vote of
ovary Southern State, including Ken
tucky. Ho Will also get the vote of New
York State, where Oonkling aud Murphy
will make tho delegation. Ho will bo re
nominated, I havo no doubt, aud bo re
elected. Blame can only roly upon the
Now England delegations—perhaps Bonn
sylvania. Morton and Oonkling will neu
tralize each other, and all throe—Blaine.
Oonkling and Morton—prefer Grant to
any two of themselves.”
We havo no doubt that War moth is
correct in saying that Grant will got tho
vote of the Radicals of every Southern
Siato for a ro-nominatiou. But ho cannot
fairly get tho Electoral votes of more
thau two Southern States after he is
thus noiuinnted.
