Tax Knoxville CTenn.) Chronicle learns
from Col. 0. W. Charlton that the Gran
gers have raised capital suffioient to pot
in snooeasfnl operation at Knoxville a
large tannery and boot and shoe mann-
faotory.
It is said that the Ordinary of Fntton
eonnty has determined to make no eharge
for marriage lieenaee dnring the year
1875. Something mnat be done to eom-
penaate for tbs flow of emigration from
Oeorgla to the West, and this Ordinary
seams to ba intent on doing all that he
oan In that direction.
Col. Eooinx LaHiSDT, known through
out the oountry aa a prominent oivil en
gineer and railroad man, who spent many
years of his life in efforts to build up the
Booth and draw the attention of Northern
and European capitalists to thia section,
died in Rome, Ua., on Mondsy. He
ths surveyor of a large portion of the
Balms, Roma and Dalton Railroad.
Dbooobt in New F.nolixd.—Large sec
tions of New England era suffering seri
ous iuoonvenienoe from the lack of water.
Tha Lewiston Journal, speaking of
Maine, says: "The drought is being
quite severely felt over the Btate; small
streams snd fountains are so low that
boainaas is almost suspended at some
mills in Maine, and in some looslities
farmers find it quite diffieult to get water
enough to water their stock. The Lewis
ton mills seem to have a better supply of
water at most points.”
Wa learn from the Constitution that a
eitixen of Atlanta, while in Chattanooga
tha other day, heard reports of the dis
covery of a gold vein of extraordinary
riehnsaa in North Georgia, within an
hour'a ride of Chattanooga (it must be in
Walker or Dade eonnty.) Many lumps of
pure gold were piokod up on the snrfsoe,
and by tha alnking of a shaft, after cut
ting through a bad of slate, “one of the
rloheat veins of gold ever dieoovered on
the oontinent" was atruok. A well-known
merohant of Chattanooga vouched for the
truth of the reports.
Tub latest advioea from Miehigan are
far from asanring of the re-eleotion of
Hon. Zaok Chandler to the U. 8. Benate.
A letter received by one of the Miehigan
Kepreentetives at Washington says that
Mr. Hoyt, a leading candidate for the
Hpeakerabip and heretofore considered a
Chandler man, has declared himself an
aapirant for the Benate, and is a very
formidable opponent of Chandler. The
advioaa are to the offset that Mr. Chan
dler will be beaten in the caucus, and
that evan abould he carry tbs caucus he
will ba beaten by a bolt of the Granger
elament, which is thoroughly organised.
Tub Atlanta correspondent of the Au
gusta Chronicle aays that Gov. Smith'a
postponement of the sale of tha Macon
and Brunswick Railroad is thought to ba
attributable to another complication oon-
oerning its bonds. It is said that the dis-
oovery baa been made that when the
bonds ware issued by Bullock sufficient
stock had not been subscribed to meet
ths requirements of the constitution, and
that the proceeds derived from the nego
tiation of the bonds were not proporly ap
plied. It is believed that Gov. Bmilh, on
aocount of the diaeovery of these irregu
larities, ia of the opinion that the State is
not bound for the redemption of tha
bonds, and will so advise the Legislature.
Tub report that the Louisiana Return
ing Board bad declared Dubluelet, Radi
es), sleeted Btate Treasurer, ia not cor
real, as we learn from the New Orleans
papers of Tuesday. Tbs Board only an
nounced the state of the poll aa far as
they had pas red upon the returns, and
thus far Dubluelet was about seven hun
dred votes ahead. But they did not pass
upon the returns of four Conservativs
parishes, and should they yet count the
vote of either of these parishes aa cast,
Monoura will have a majority. Two or
three reasons are supposed to have influ
enced the Board in not declaring Dnbln
elet eteeted as well as Radioal members
of the Legislature who were beaten. One
is, that tbe Funding Board have a scheme
for the ieauanoe of a new batch of Btate
bouds, and Dubluelet,who will be a mem
ber of the Board if elected Treasurer, ia
not known to favor this scheme; and an
other ia, that Auditor Clinton threatens to
resign it Dubluelet is made Treasurer
and beoomea a member of the Funding
Board. Clinton's opposition to Dubluelet,
however, ia not founded upon this bond
aebeme, for Clinton ia himself bitterly
opposed to it and asya that he will not
sign tha boada because they are tainted
with fraud. Ha dislikes Dubluelet per-
aonaly, end wanted to resign las tsummer
whan the latter was nominated tor Btate
Treasurer.
—It ia generally believed in Bavaunah
that Mr. Vitlalonga's ootton warehouse
was set on fire by a rocket sent up during
the Chritmaas oelab ration.
“••■■■•BT IRAf WILL MIJUT.”
President Gnat seams to bare carried
into execution his threat to aend “i
body that will hart” to New Orleans. Tbe
mission of Oan. Bheridah to fhat city oan
only be regarded da a fulfillment of lbs
bloody purpose. The act would ham
bean bad enough if it had only been rh->
sorted to as a means of Intimidating tbe
people and thut preventing a oodfliot.
But there is too muoh reason for the appre
hension that Mberidan Is sent to Louisiana
to provoke a oonfliot which otherwise wa*
not likely tohaveocourred,and thus to fur
nish an occasion for “honing” somebody.
This is a charge that ought not to be
mode without good grounds, for it
would be a moat iniquitous and extra
ordinary course for an American
Exeoutive to make war upon any portion
of the poople in this way. But when
known foots show that there was no appa
rent necessity for this step—when no set
of hie has indioaled that Gen. Emory
does not stand ready, with snfBoient force,
to exeaute every order of the President—
how else can we regard the mission of
Gen. Bheridan than aa one of provocation
or vindictiveness 7 The Conservative
Committee of Bevanty had publicly avow
ed that there would be no attack upon the
Kellogg Government on acoountof the
outrageous aetion of its Returning Board,
and Gov. MoEnery had as publicly de
clared that the party of which he is tbe
bead and leader did not think for a mo
ment of resisting the authority of tha Cut
ted Htatea. The Federal fores in the city is
large enough to proteot tbe Kellogg Gov
ernment, weak as it ia in popular sup
port. Gen. Sheridan is to carry no addi
tional troops with him; but he Is to earry
with him his bloody reoord, his propensi
ty to “hurt somebody," and his presence
ean but serve to arouse the consciousness
of tbe people that they are menaced, in
sulted, and dared to exercise rights whiob
in other Btates of the Union the Federal
Government would not venture to tram
ple upon. This is the kind of provocation
which Gen. Bheridan's mission to New
Orleans will give to the people of Louisi
ana -, and as the situation there does not
reveal any necessity for it, tbe order
sending him there can only be malioions
and misphievous, if not blood-thirsty.
The contemplated oourse of tbe
Louisiana Conservative*, in further re
sistance to the usurpations and frauds of
tbe Kellogg government, is for the Con
servative members eleet of tbe Legisla
ture to refuse to act with tbe Legislature
made up by the Returning Board, and to
organise separately. If General Sheri
dan has any specific instructions regard
ing his interference, other than the gen
eral direction to “hurt somebody," it
must be that he is to disperse this sepa
rata assembly of the Conservatives. But
the eourse whiob they propoae to pursue
is one that has been adopted by political
parties in several Btates of tbe Uoion, on
previous occasions, without the United
Btates “hurting" anybody on account
of it. Nearly forty years ago Thad
Btevens beaded a legislative faction
which pursued this course in Fennsyl-
vania, and the Federal Government did
nut interfere. Only two years ago the
Radical members of the Legislature of
Alabama pursued a precisely similar
eourse, and instead of Gen. Grant’s inter
fering and “hurting somebody” by the
employment of his soldiery to disperse
them, ha actually empowered Attorney-
General Williams to effect a so-called
“compromise" by whioh the Conservatives
were forced to yield, and the Radios),
bolting legislators obtained a working
majority in both branohes. The Benate
of the United States went still further
than this in approving and upholding the
eourso of the bolting Radicals of Ala
bama. It reoognised and admitted a Sena
tor eleeted by thia bolting Radical
Legislature while in separate
session elsewhere than in tbe oapitol of
the Btate! It admitted him, although
the bolters had found it neoeasary, in or-
der to make out an apparent quorum, to
take in temporarily as Senators men who
had no olaim whatever to seats and did
not sit after the “compromise” had been
earried out. Bo it appears, without citing
other instances, that the course which
the conservative Legislators of Louisiana
—tbe Legislators unquestionably elected
by the people—intend to pursue, is one
not unusual in our American polities, and
one which has never yet beon visited by
the power and vengeance of the
Federal Government. The issue
raised by proceedings of this kind is one
for law, not power, to decide. President
Grant may, through his bloody instru
ment, Bheridan, forcibly disperse the peo
ple's Legislature in Louisiana. We trust
that no other opposition than a manly and
dignified protest will be made to his
armed intervention. But the day is sure
ly ooiuing when suoh deapotio acts will
arouse the indignation of the people of
tho whole country against their perpetra
tors. They will not make towards a
third term.” They will “hurt some
body” not aimed at by those who attempt
in this way to fasten upon the people of
a State a government which owes its ox
ialenoe to usurpation iu the first instance
and official tyranny and fraud afterwards.
