JUDGE HANSELL’S LETTER OF AC

In another column we ^uBKsh'the'^etteT’of'-
Hon. A. H. Hansell to.. tjre committee ap
pointed by the Blaekshear' Convention to in
form him of his nomination by that body to
represent die First Congressional District to-.

gracefully accepts the nomination, cordially
pledging himself to the support of the plat-
principles announced by the

Tbp delay of the Judge’s acceptance ex
plained, the Democrats and Conservatives of
.'he District will be gratified that they have a
andidate of whom they may justly be proud,
and who cannot fail to:command the cordial
.ml unanimous support of all who have at
heart the honor and interests of the State and
onntry. Certainly no intelligent man, be his
politics what they may,, be he white or col
ored, who desires that his District shall be
.aith fully, honorably and ' intelligently
epresented—who appreciates- talent and
. haracter, and who would not see -the
National Congress degraded to the level of
public contempt, cannot hesitate for a moment
.11 his choice between suchatroerepresenta-
ive man and the miserable upstart, carpet-
■ag embecile who has the audacity to insult
lie self respect of our people by his candidacy
for an office, the responsibilities and dignity
if which he has not the capacity to compre
hend. Even the Republicans in our midst, re
spectable members of the community, will not
o far stultify themselves and outrage decern
y, as to give their support to such a creature
■ a preference to a gentleman so eminently qual-
tied to represent not only the interests of the
section ifi which they lire, bnf also to pro-
note the restoration, harmony, and prosper-
•ty of the country at large.
We are pleased to learn from various por-
1 ions of the District that the nomination of
adge Hansell is most cordially approved,
.ud that he will receive the zealons support
if the people. A friend writes us in a private
. jtter from Thomas county:
“I have pleasure in informing you that the
(anvass is opening very encouragingly in this

.ring out the entire white vote, and will get
■- very considerable colored support, more
. hair any other man could obtain. Personally
he Judge'is very popular with the colored
people in this section, and even those con-
rolled by the {League are veay anxious to vote
ur him.’’
Judge Hansell will receive the entire Con-
ervative vote of this portion of the District,
■nd all that is necessary to ensure his ele’c-
,ion is that the entire Democratic and Con
servative vote-Qf the.District shall be brought,

RADICAL OPPOSITION TO BEAST BUT
LER.
The Beast having succeeded in baying his
re-nomination to Congress, is likely to have
opposition in the ranks of his own party.
Notwithstanding his shameless back down on
the currency question, there are amdng the
Massachusetts bond-holders some who are
unwilling to trust him. A dispatch from Sa
lem, Massachusetts, pays:
"The indications fromall parts of the Fifth
District leave no doubt that Richaud H. Dana,
Jr>, will receive the unanimous nomination
as a candidate for Congress, in opposition to
Gen. Butler, in the Republican convention to
that
mere
he held on’Monday.
A cotemporary expresses the opinion
the Beiffit will be elected Were it a
question of principles and moral fitness to
represent a Massachusetts District, we be
lieve Butler would beat any body except, per-
haps, Oia.Nick himself. But in a matter of
spoons or of dollars, the Yankee bond-hold-
ors would a little rather not trust him.
Ex-President Pierce.—A private telegram
from Concord says ex-President Pierce has
and that redoubtable General, .with
cordiality, agreed not only that the
but the greenbacks too, should be paid in gold.
Here are bis wffrds:
It is true that he had said the letter of the
law permitted payment to be made in the same
legal notes authorized to be issued at the same
time tcith them (the bonds), but be had nowhere
thought the Government should not pay these
. In his speech ho had said the bonds,
amoiinting tosi, 5S3.000, "could be paid 6ff in'
greenbacks. Now, be ’says, he had 'nowhere
thought that the greenbacks, amounting to
$388,000,000, should not be paid in coin
alsoS—the two sums amounting to $1,971,-
000,000, and making the difference to be^paid
bj’ the Government to the holders of the
snug little, ajnount of $788,400,000 in favor
of t|ie creditors, and at the expense of the
people.
Let all the people, in every other section
of the country, open their eyes to the enor
mity of this proposed increase of the debt,
• which they are taxed on all they eat, or drink,
or wear, or possess, and on eveiy check they
draw, on eveiy sale they make, even on the
matches they burn and the physic they take,
to pay. General Butler has squirmed; the
few will be passed soon—New England de
mands it; Mr. Greeley denounces pvery man
as dishonest who opposes it **

MK. STEPHENS MISREPRESENTED.
We find the following paragraph in the
.Richmond Dispatch;
Alexander II.'Stephens is reported to have
said in conversation recently that the Confed
eracy was not physically overpowered in the
late struggle, but that the people saw, after
years of fighting, that the whole power was
gradually being concentrated in tlie hands of
one or two of the leaders at Richmond, and
, thereupon, by a. tacit understanding, the con-
’ test was giyen up. ; • \ j, i
We cannot believe that Mrl Stephens ever
-made a statement so at variance with facts.
It is well known that if the Confederacy was
not physically overpowered her armies were
contending against vastly superior numbers
and resources. If her soldiers were not dis
couraged by this circumstance from protract
ing the unequal struggle, they certainly did
not give up the contest from auy distrust of
the patriotism and good faith of “the leaders
at Richmond,” though the secret defection
and base treachery of certain unprincipled
politicians at home, such as the Browns aud
Holdens —whose infamous names will fill a
dark page iu the history of that trying aud
eventful period—did discourage and paralize
the efforts of the true men in the field, and
perhaps precipitated the filial catastrophe.
History will put this matter right. In the
meantime let ns not do injustice to the “lead
ers at Richmond. *" ■ ■ • *.

LETTER FROM HON. A. H.
Thomasvhle, September 28,1868.
Gentlemen: Your fiwor, informing me
nomination as the candidate of the Demo
cratic party to .represent the First District in
tire next CongresAwas duly received,
preciating most fully 8ie honor
upon me by the voice of the Convention, and
grateful for this mark of thfeir confidence, I
accept the nomination. In so doifi'grit is
sufficient to say that,thc platform adopted by
the National Convention expresses so clearly
and unequivocally the great principles npon
which we make this canvass, that I have noth
ing to add to it, and most heartily accept it in
all its terms.
The great and pressing need of ourcountry
is the assurance of peace. Few people ever
felt its necessity more, and none ever more
earnestly desired it To secure a lasting,
permanent peace, we must have a union of
the States upon equal terms, and a wise, mid
economical administration of the Government
within the limits of the Constitution. It is
only in the Democratic platform that we-find
any guarantee of these essential principles.
Let us then bury forever all past issues, and
banishing all personal feelings and prefer
ences, unite our most earnest and zealous
efforts to secure the success of our great na
tional cause—the cause of the Constitution
and the Union, and its most worthy cham
pions. With these secured, we may hope, by
the Divine blessing, soon to see our loved and
suffering South enter npon that career of
prosperity for which a kind Providence has
so eminently fitted it If we fail, the future
is indeed dark and gloomy; bat we shall re
tain the conscious satisfaction of having done
. our full duty.
Thanking you most sincerely for the very
kind personal feeling manifested in yonr
letter, I remain
Very respectfully and truly yours,
Aug. H. Hansell.
To Messrs. G. P. Harrison, Geo. Patton. J. M.
Stubbs, Committee.
P. S. This reply would have been sent you
earlier, but for the delay in the action of the

WHAT GEN. BLAIR THINKS OF THE
PROSPECT.
Gen. Frank P. Blair passed through Wash
ington on Thursday last en route to Bedford,
Pa., where he was to address’- the people. The
General waH just from his Western tour aud
was in fine spirits. In a conversation with the
editor of the Express, he expressed no doubt
whatever about the result of the elections, not
only in Oct., but in November. “ No man,
says the Express, “has a better right ta know
than himself. He has been in Indiana, Ohio,
and Pennsylvania, is fresh from among the
people, with whom he has talked, as also
those
lie saw aijdfieard*
est confidence in
with the leading men of our. party
States,' and e-*’-'* 1 "'*"'’'
spires him with the fullest confidence in the
election of our - national ticket. This state
ment of General Blair fully corroborates all
that we have said recently on this subject in
these columns, which, as we stated, was based
upon the best information from all quartern
of the. country. Of the result in Missouri
(and who kuows better about it than himself?)
i he does not gntertain even the shadow of a
doubt Its tote will be cast for Seymour and
Blair certain!”

the most heart-rending cries—caused less by
physical pain, than by fear or madness. The
prevailing idea with her is always the same:
that some one is trying to poison or suffocate
her.
Re-Establishment of Light-Houses. —No

Radical Recruits. —The Atlanta Era learns .
that most of the prisoners cofiffned in the ^
DeKalb county jail escaped one night this
week. They forced their way out with a crowi
bar, but we were not informed wh^re they
got the crowbar. Several' parties who had
been sentenced for various terms by Judge
Erskine’s Court, for violation of the Revenue
laws, were among those wbo escaped. The
Era may console itself with the reflection that
his bretheren are (again at large to work and

Radical Sentiment.—The Washington Star,
a dirty Radical sheet, in an exultant editoral
on the subject of negro domifiation in South
Carolina, says:
It is amusing as well as instinctive to see
the proud chivalry pf the Palmetto State in
humble supplication at the feet of the whilom
slaves, who have risen from “chattels person
al ” to the dignity of manhood, and to the
privileges of freemen and voters.
What a change is there,.my countrymen !
If that is notjShakspeare it is something like
it, so 1st it slide. , r r U;!
Would it be believed that the anthor of the
above is a white man ?
Shameful.—A scalawag organ in Georgia'
complains that a grievous insult was offered
to the Radical Solicitor General Mathews, at
Elberton last week, by the Ku-Klux. The
indignant editor says, “they painted his mule
and shaved its maue and toil,” and asks, “is
this right, is it decent, is it lawful V We say
decidedly not. It Was’ vlry-' wrong to offer
such an indignity to th$ poor brute, yrho is
not responsible for the character or conduct
of his owner. •>
Invasion by Sea.—A crowd of 200 men
from a fishing fleet invaded Portsmouth, New
Hampshire, on the.25th ult., and took pos
session of the town; gardens and orchards
were robbed, pistols, fired and a general riot
engaged in. The police, after a hard fought
battle, arrested thirteen of the rioters, and
lodged them safely in jail.
The Atlanta papers state that Hon. A. H.
Stephens will deliver a reading in that city
during the week of the Fair, for the benefit of
the First Baptist Church.
[From the Philadelphia Commercial List, of Sept 19.)
Demoralization of the Tobacco Trade.
The tobacco trade is in a very unsettled
state, owing to the uncertainty and delay at
tending the Operations of the new internal
revenue few. Dealers in leaf are compelled,
under heavy duties, to conduct their business
according to specified forms, which not one
in a hundred understands. Cigar manufac
turers are compelled to give excessive bonds,
aud conform to new regulations, prescribing
ie manner of packing, branding, stamping,
, about which there is any amount of dis
cussion as to what is really required. Manu
facturers of chewing tobacco are hampered
and distressed in eveiy imaginable manner.
They cannot prepay the tax as the law de
mands, and they cannot ship their goods in
bond on account of their being no bonded
warehouses. The general dealer is in a stew
on account of his being obliged to take a full
account of his stock every month, and swear
to its correctness. In the meantime, the con
trabandists are reaping a perfect harvest, and
by the time the new stamps are ready (if they
ever are) the market will be flooded with illi
cit goods, that will effectually drive ont the
productions of those manufacturers who real
ly desire to comply with the law, and should,
therefore, be encouraged. The question nat
urally arises, why is all this? The answer
can be given in a vety few words. Politicians,
for certain reasons known only to themselves,
framed a law to snit themselves, which, when
presented to bnsiness men, showed so many
glaring absurdities, that the execution of it is
next to impossible. Bemonstiances, petitions
and complaints from merchants of the high-
jest standing were of no avail, and the conse
quence is that legitimate trade is paralyzed.
Stocks are accumulating at the manufactur
ing centres, to an enormous figure, and that
too with many of the factories closed up. The
few manufacturers who are still at work in
Richmond have already accumulated a million
dollars’ worth, and are totally unable to move
it, in consequence of the delay iu the estab
lishment of bonded warehouses. One of these
warehouses bos been established at New York,
but the character of the same, its iuconve-
nient location, and other reasons combined,
render it useless for the purposes of trad&
It was stated a week or two ago, in a promi
nent newspaper, that the “little difficulty,”
between Commissioner Rollins and Secretary
McCulloch was costing the country $300,000
per day. Where are we drifting to ?
Liens on Cotton.
The Sumter (S. C.) ATews has a long article
on this subject, from which we, learn with
surprise that the government agents, holding
liens on crops of cotton for provisions ad
vanced, claim—not the payment oftlie amount
due, aud satisfaction of the lien—-but claim
that they are entitled to the sale of tlie cotton,
and the commissions arising therefrom/ What
next?—Charleston Courier.
In further explanation of this matter, we
give the following fro\n the Washington letter
of the New York World:
The Fbeedmen’s Bureau Wants Cotton.
An order of the Freedmen’s Bureau, issued
: at New Orleans, September 24, says: With
' view to relieve the planter who so desires,
and to avoid the necessity of bis obtaining
advances from a factor to liquidate his in
debtedness to the Bureau, and to secure the
freedmen for advances and labor, be will be
required to ship a sufficient amount of his
crop to the Bureau at New Orleans to cover
the same; the amount so shipped to be for
warded as soon as it is put into marketable^
condition- Any amount in excess of his in-'
debtedness will be sold to the best advan
tage, and the proceeds held subject to the
shipper’s order. Until they can realize from
their crops, supplies will continue to be ad
vanced by the Commissary of the Bureau.

The Assassination of General Hindman.—
The Memphis Appeal of the 29th ult. says :
From information that we have received
otherwise, there is not a shadow of doubt bnt
that the deed was the work of the hellish
Loyal League. General Hindman bos been,
since the close of the war, an ardent support
er of the Democratic cause, and a hitter foe
and denouncer of Radicals and .Radicalism.
They have now, no doubt, wreaked, the Yen-.
gence that they have so often sworn, and ip
a true Radical manner—by the hand of an^-
sassin. More blood smokes upon the ajt^r of
our desolated South, and cries aloud fqr ven
geance. ,
The Health of Queen Victoria.—We are
in a position to state that since her aojoqm
in Switzerland the Queen has greatly im
proved in health. The untoward symptoms,
which cost her Miqesty and her subjects so
much uneasiness,.have yielded to the fresh
mountain air and uxe change of scene, in the
most romantic of European countries. The
benefit, indeed, has been so marked that the
nation may look forward hopefully to her:
Majesty’s resuming (at least partially) those
public duties from which she has been so
long and so unhappily estranged.—London
Lancet , .
A Startling Telegrams*-A young gentle
man Btopped at the Lanier House on ThuraL
day evening last, and registered - his name As
M. B. Kelly, Alabama, and in a little while
afterwards he received a telegram containing
the startling and terrible sews that his father
and mother had both been murdered by ne
groes that day, and to hurry back home. He
left yesterday morning on the Southwestern
road. We conld not learn the of tho
young gentleman’s postoffice.—Macon Site-

A train of ten cars -was burned near Urba-
na, Ohio, last week, by an explosion caused,
it is supposed, by nitro-glycerine in one of
them. A house a quarter of a mile from the
wreck was destroyed by the concussion.
