Harris, Democratic nomi nee) for Congress in tho Fourth District, will ad'lrcss the people at the times and places named below : Burma ViHtn, Marion county, Oct. 20th, Geneva, Talbot county, Oct. 22d. Talbott on, Oct. 2ft(l. AM EDITION. On or about the first of November noil we propose to iasne an edition of tkn thousand extra papers dovoted to a de scription of Columbus and her interests. This edition will bo well printed, and each paper will contain thirty-six columns of roading matter, with no display advertis ing. Our object is, first, to advertise Oolumhus and the Enquiuku, and, second, to give acoinploto and full lint of all our factories, founderis, mills, warehouses, wholesale and retail houses, banks, insur ance companies, professions, and every thing pertaining to our city, including a history and a full recital of its ovory ad vantage. A fair encouragement and wo will make tho edition twenty thousand. This will involve a heavy expenso, which it would ho unjust for one man, and ho a poor one, to hear. We therefore proposo tho following: For every sqiinro of read ing put in about oaeh individuals business we will charge one dol lar, and givo him ten copies of this paper, to mark and send away. To those taking fivo HquuroH for five dollars, wo will givo one hundred pa pers, and in tho Hatue proportion for any desired space, By this plan the extra edition will bo well distributed and pooplo at a distance be enabled to get good idea of Columbus. We want to have our city talked about. Should ten thous and copies he taken in this way we will issuo an additional ten thousand, nnd besides sending a copy to each subscriber, we will forward ono to every live paper, oorpnrntoiu, factory nnd moneyed interest in the whole country where it will d< good. Our agents will make it a point to call on every business man in tho city, wheth er ho ever advertised or not, nnd enlist him in tho eifort wo nro making to cnil nt taut ion to the superior claims of o city. G. The platforms of both tho Democratic and Undionl parties in Indiana declared in favor of “ii.ilation”—Senator Morton be ing nil infiation lender. In Ohio tho Dem ocrats pronounced in favor of more curren cy and the payment, of the hotidHin groon- hucks; the Itudicals for tho opposite poli cy. Yet in both Slates tho Demoorats wore signally successful. The results go to allow that this issuo does not much uf- feet party organizations. m»«l »!•*»* tho |*o<»- ple of the country nro bent on making another fight under their old party ban- A Hurd Choice. We have soon a letter from agmilleinnn in South Carolina, addressed to his brother in this city, from which wo make tho fol lowing extract: “Wo all have to bn Uads, ns tho two candidates for Governor nro both Kails, uiu] the two running for Congress in this District nro both lvmls, also. Now, please tell me how to vote. Of the two fellows for Congress, tho ono is Daddy Cain, a coal-black negro, and tho other a white nmn from tho North, with a carpet-bag. The latter came round hero, went to a ne gro frolic, nnd danced w ith tho negro girls. Now, please tell mo which to vote for. Tho negro can’t help being n negro, and 1 reckon ho is tho best cbauco.” Wo reckon that tho ehoico which this South Carolina Democrat intimates his in tention of making is tho best—proydod there is no chance to elect u sure enough white man. Wo say take tho negro ovory time in preference to such a character ns he describes. Third Term Sentiment. Tho New York lie raid, of Thursday, tills considerably more than « page with u succinct statement of the opinions of onoh Cabinet officer and member of Con gress upon the question of a third term for Gen. Grant. Wo cannot say whether its information is roliablo, but it is posi. tivo in its report of tho position of each person named.* Tho Cabinet ia reported •ah non-committal, except that Socrotary Koboson is sure General Grant, does not want a third term. Of Congressmen, it puts down in tho Senate for the third term 24; trimmers, 21; together, 4.' agaiust third term, 2ff. In tho House, for third term, 78; trimmers, 105; together, 1M ; against third term, 117. By trim mers the lit raid meting to iudicato those l*)u> have no opinions. Every lvadical Congressman from Georgia is represented to be in favor of the third term, and every Democrat against it except Mr. Stephens, who is put down as “a trimmer.” Soc- tioimlly, it is claimed that tbo Southern ttepublicauH favor the third term, whilo the East opposes it, and the West and Middle States are divided. The Savannah Advertiser gives puhlici ty to a simple scheme which Bryant has concocted for carrying Chatham county. A posse of two hundred Deputy Marshals will bo placed on duty at the polls the day of election, with instructions to bring on a collision if possible. When this occurs the colored-voters will retire in a body, doclarc that they were prevented from voting, and Bryant will contest tho elec tion on tbo ground of “forco and fraud, etc.” No doubt this game will bo played in and wo are well aware of bis standing and character. There ia no man in Alabama farthor above (be suspicion of any act of violence or injustice. His whole life has been ono of pence nnd the most gantle- mauly consideration of the rights of oth ers. He is a nephew of the Into Hon. George E. Badger, of Ualeigh, N. C , ono of tho greatest lawyers and ucutest intel lects of his day, and tinder his tuition ho could have learned nothiug o’so than tho profoundeHt respect for law and the most honorable deportment towards his fol low-men. Ho may l>o accused of some offence against tho Enforcement act by the purchased oaths of depraved negroes, lmt tbore is not n man who knows him whoso faith in his innocence will bo there by shaken. The system of espionage nnd tyranny which hns boon instituted in Western A1 nbama is abhorrent to all our American ideas of personal liberty and freedom of political opinion. There is no other on- lightened government on oirtli that would rosort to it. Wo have now hoforo long letter to tbo Now York Tribune, da ted Livingston, Huintor coun’y, Ala., Oct. 8th, written by its special correspondent sent to Alubama to investigate reported Ku-Klux outrages. Tho writer is a ltc- pnhliom, lilco tho paper for which ho cor responds. Ho tolls something about De tective Hester, tho man whom Wetmoro is charged with “conspiring to injure. According to his report, Hosier, acting socrotly as a Government detective, has boon doing nil that ho could to excite tho wbito pooplo against tho negroes and tho carpet-baggers, liberally using persuasion and i-pple brandy to fire thorn up to tho commission of “outrages” which ho might report! This correspondent writes “Messrs. Hester and Bench, an they told me, oamo into Bumter county about three weeks ago, disguised as tobacco poddlors from North Carolina. Hester, in th performance of his duties ns n detcctivi joined tbo Kn-Klux in 18(1!) or 1870, and learned thoir signs, pass words, A Whon tho two started out on this expud tioii from Demopoliu, which is about 25 miles from hero, they hud a regular North Carolina wagon, and besides the tobnen which they sold, carried some Old Norik State apple brandy, with which they •treated their friends and customers. Hester made use of the Ku Klux signs, and says they were recognized by a groat many men whom they uiot. Everywhere they went they cursed tho “niggers" and white Republicans, boasted how they treated such cattle in North Carolina, and advisod tho murdor of them all. “Homo men whom thoy filled protiy full at their upplo brandy responded to their boasts. Sumter county, they claimed, know how to do these things us well the North Cnrolina Ku-Klux, mid tho sassination of Billings and Ivoy was citod in proof. As far as 1 could learn, no man With whom they talked so confidentially evor admitted that ho was personally present when either of those men was killed, but tho detectives say that a great many woro anxious to have a share of tho honor.” Tho same dispatch that reported tho ar rest of NYctiuoro staled that Dotootivo Jfestor had had a Sheriff’s posse of about fifty men arrested. Tho Tribune's cor respondent tells us about the difficulty out of whitih these arrests grow also. Hester exhibited to him nil anonymous letter which ho said a uogra named Boh Reid (a mombor of the Legislature) had re ceived through the postofilco. The letter warned him not to mnko any inoro speech es, and advised him to loavo tho county— just such a lottor as ire might suppose a man who could givo people upplo brandy and thou advise them to kill negroes mid he capable of writing. It terrified Reid, or he pretonded to bo torrified, and ho gathered together armed bands of no- grocs to protoot him nt night, nnd kept up this military demonstration so long that the whites in turn became alarmed and called upon tho Sheriff to disperse the negroes. Ho gathered a posse and started for Belmont where tho nog roes woro ouoamped, and when they hoard of his coming thoy lied. Thore was not a gun tirod—not a man was hurt—and a Radical meeting was hold that very duy in Boluiout nnd not interfered with. For this Rtrictly legal proceeding in tho dis charge of their duty to keep tho poaoe, the Shoriff and his porno have boon ar rested. It was either for this procoodinj or for a precisely similar ono in tho north ern part of tho county, by which Warren Dennis’ gang woro dispersed without in jury to any ono, that they wore nrrostod. The Tribune's correspondent tells ol tho attempts made l>y Radical loadoifc of Montgomery to prevent him from going to Bumter and contiguous counties, which nro ouough of themselves ’to satisfy any candid man that they knew the falsehood of tho charges made against tho whites of that sootion of tho State, were advised of tho plot to arrest and punish them wrong fully, and did not want tho game exposed. Wo copy from his letter : “It will bo useless for you to go over to Sumter or Greene or Choctaw or Marengo county,” said almost every Republican whom I met in Montgomery last week. ‘-If tin* Dem ocrats know who you are they’ll convince you that every thing is quiet, that there is no reign of terror, and that the reports, which wo assure you nro us well authenti cated as any reports cau bo, are wholly without foundation." “Then I’ll go incog.,' was my reply. “If you do that, they’ll all suspect you of being a detective or a,iloputy marshal, aud they wou't talk to you. Tho best thing for you to do is to sue l». N. Mar shal Ilealy’s two deputies, Randolph and Williford, who have been up in Sumter county aiul cau toll you all about it, and then go down to Mobile and attend the examination of tho prisoners, who will bo taken thoro tho first of the week." In shyrt, I wan advised not to make this having a large majority of negro voters, but they have shown a strong disposition to free themselves from tho control of bite Radical loaders. There was a special election for a Senator in the comity, some tirno after the last general election, ami a great many negroes voted for the Demo- candidate, electing him by n iarge majority. Something had to ho done which would at once terrify the whites and whip the negroes hack into the Radical ranks, and wo boo in tlieso proceedings how it is being dono. Tho whito men of Alabama will go down in disgrace if they aro not aroused to greater exertion and determination by tlieso high-handed measures. A people who can bo crushed or discouraged in that way aro not worthy of political froodom. Bat wo know that they are rousiug and organizing fur such a robuko as will mnko their persecutors rno tho day when they resorted to such proceedings. (XLOIM.IA NEWS. —II m. Robt.

Tho New Orleans Picayune of Friday gives a report of an interview with an ngc-nt of the European holders of South ern State bonds, now in its city. This agent informs tho Picayune, that the bondholders whom he represents hold over £200,000,000 in bonds, which ho authorized to settle. Ho lias already set tled with the Governors of Alabama, Vir ginia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Arkansas, nnd nothiug now is required but notion by. S‘ate Legislatures to ratify th* agreements. The basis of the settle ment is that tho foreign holders of bonds agree to lund the debt of tbo several States, principal and interest, nnd extend tho debt for twenty yearn at four or five per cent, interest per annum. He informs mo (says tho reporter) that ho is prevented from settling the $24,000,000 debt of this State, owing to the fact that thore is no government hero with which to fsottle. If there was ft gov ernment. with which to negotiate tho do mestic nnd foreign debt of tho State, by extending it thirty years from January, 1875 or 1870, nml accepting new funded bonds bearing four per cent, interest, this would require Louisiana to pay but $10,- 000 or $17,000 year interest on her total debt. It is believed that Tennessee will settle on tho same basis. The amounts already settled are : Vir ginia $01,000,000, South Cnrolina about $lo,ooo,(MK), North Carolina $20,000,000, Arkansas about $8,500,000, and Alabama $8,000,000. Tho agent assorts that at live per cent, interest on the debt n tax of two mills on tho dollar of taxable prop, erty will in sixteen years free any of the Stales of thoir present indebtedness. The draft of a bill to bo submitted to all tho State Legislatures to confirm tho settle ment lias boon prepared in London nnd has been approved by tho Governors of tho Slates namod, and it is believed will be adopted by nil of them. Not a dollar of the principal is required of any State until after thirty years.
