This is a cheap and neat method of keeping yonr house before the public; and besides, nothing-adds so much to the effect made by a city newspaper upon parties at a distance as a long list of business houses. It is beneficial to the mercantile community and all branches of industry, and fur nishes a ready reference to those who are trading, or desire to trade, in Savannah. them,-they send a Com mittee to Washington with money, and it is passed by Congress, , Do,they wish to eman cipate the slaves they had sold to the South, oy send John Brown and such emissaries to e South to malm insurrection, to,arouse the South to necessary measures of defence,' and ' then call np their pnpils.from the West, and ' make war upon them. Nor do they allow any defection among theniBelres. Tfhey hpve compelled their great General Butler to swallow his own speeches. They wanted gold for their bonds, which they bought with greenbacks when at a much ——greater discount than now, and which Con gress{reserved the right to pay off in green backs after five years. In his speech in Con gress, before he had got his orders, General Bctler ventured to express his opinion that the bonds were payable in greenbacks. But a Convention met in Massachusetts recently to choose a candidate for Congrass, and,they gave their great leader to know that they pre ferred gold to greenbacks for their bonds, Mass Meeting at Blaekshear on Wednesday, tlie 7th instant. On Wednesday, the 7th instant, there will be a grand rally of the Democracy of the First Congressional District, at Blaekshear. The following distinguished gentlemen are expected to be present, and to address the people: Hons. A. H. Stephens, H. V. Johnson, Thos. M. Norwood, A. H. Hansell, Gens. John B. Gordon, Howell Cobb, Kobert Toombs, and Eli Warren. JUDGE HANSELL’S LETTER OF AC CEPTANCE. 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-. Congress. It will be seen that Judge Hansell gracefully accepts the nomination, cordially pledging himself to the support of the plat- principles announced by the ational Democratic Conveu- ,’orm afy .lew -York pn Ni 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 •ud of the District. Judge Hansell will .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, .nt Let every true man in the District feel" ■t erfect onds, t hat he is personally responsible for the ac complishment of this object and go earnestly to work from now until election’day, and the First Congressional District will be relieved of the disgrace and shame of Radical carpet bag misrepresentation in Congress. THE- TOUCH 1 go a Radical SonjesL ^ ^ a speecirtat" Gretna, Louisiana, fille menaces, in the course of which .he “wit! said the only way to carry the election for .yie. Radi cals was to apply the torch to the houses and property of the whites. A few days after wards a negro was discovered by a lady set ting fire to an unoccupied house. Before the alarm could be spread and the villagers arrive on the spot two houses wer6 dn'fire. and be fore the flames-could be extinguished two entire blocks on each side of First street, the principal bnsiness street of the town, were entirely consumed, with a large amount of property. The citizens called upon the ‘ne groes to assist in removing the furniture from whites until they were compelled by the citizens to work. A worse spirit is mani fested by the negroes of Louisiana than by those of any other Southern State. Bpt as the election approache3*it will bo well for the whites to be both prudent and watchful in every community where it is knpwn. that carpet-bag'emissaries have been at cCndiary work. r. 'J < ■ 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 ** » < 1——* 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. *" ■ ■ • *. m of’my Ap- 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 Legislature upon the subject of the election- A. H. H. (News.) • 1 ■ ns . A SEA. OF BLOOD.

Edwards 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!” • — MASS MEETING AT BLACKS HEAR. Attention is directed to the announcement of a Democratic and Conservative Mass Meet ing, to be held.at Blaekshear, on Wednesday, 7th inst. We understand that there will be a large attendance of the people froqi all ports of the District, as will be seen by the notice, and several prominent speakers axe expected to address the assemblage. A good delegation is expected from Chatham county, and it is proper that Savannah should be fully repre- ired Derno- sentedon the occasion. - erats of tie District, and such others as desire to be informed-in regard to the political issues of the d^y, axe.iuvited to attend. Mnim.—Acting Governor Holden, the scalawag Governor of North Carolina, con tinues his martial preparation for war. He has or4ete ! d'tSs Colonels to provide ffov'the enrollment of all “ able-bodied male citizens of the State, who are citizens of the United States, between twenty-one and forty years of-age, save those exempted on.,acccount of religious scruples,” at'the same time and places provided for the registration of elec tors. The lists are to be returned by the sixth of IJovember. The Savannah, Griffin and North Ala bama Railroad.—The following are the offi cers, recently elected, of this road, to which the aid of the State, $8,G0(> per mile, npon certain conditions, has been promised: W. M. Wadley, President road; W. M. iapman. C. ,C. .Peeples, and, John L Whita- sr, oUGriffln;Thos. A- Grace and George E. Smith, of Newnan, Ga.; George W. Camp, of Carroll county. 1 A Washington special of the 29th ult. says that Jeff. Davis will certainly be brought to trial at the next term of the United States Circuit Court in Richmond, as Attorney Gen eral Evabts is said to be actually pushing the matter. - > < ♦ » < Seventh District.—Gen. P. M. B. Young was nominated for Congress by acclamation by the Democratic Convention of the Seventh -District on Friday last Poor Caklotta.—The last news from the Empress Carlotta represent -her condition as growing worse daily. It was ; hoped her re turn to her natal air would have exerted a beneficial influence; and it did at first But a reaefioti has taken place,- and her condition is now quite hopeless. Heretofore, in her severest fits, she was always amenable (o> the Archbishop of Maliues, the spiritual father of the family; but now his presence fails to ex tract one ray of light from her clouded intel lect. Her health is giving way. Her embon point has became excessive, and she rarely- rises from her bed. Frequently she utters 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 tice is given by the Light-house Board that light-house station “Two Lights,” at Wolf Island, Georgia, lias been re-established and light will be re-exhibited in the evening on October 1, 1868. 'Pbe lights ii) connection with the Sapelo Isfend light, are intended to be used as ranges in crossing Doboybar and into the sound. The first light is a fixed white light placed on a skeleton frame tower painted brown, thirty-one feet above the sea level. The rear light is also a fixed white light placed on the keeper’s dwelling, painted white, thirty-eight feet above the sea level and forty feet distant from the front light. Both lights may be seen in clear weather at a dis tance of ten milcR'. The Late Gen. Hindman.—General Thomas Hindman, who was assassinated at his resi dence iu Arkansas, a few nights ago, was bom iu Tennessee in 1818, served as a second lieu tenant of Mississippi volunteers in the Mexi can war, aud was a Democratic.representative in the Thirty-sixth Congress from the First District of Arkansas. He was re-elected to ;j the Thirty-seventh, bnt when the war broke out be entered the Confederate service and became a Major-General.. He served in the army of Tennessee down to the fall of Atlan ta. General Hindman was a member of the Charleston Convention of I860- After the overthrow of the rebellion he became a. resi dent of Texas, but lately returned to Arkansas; -V: ^a cPJ We direct the special attention of all per sons, white and black, to the article beaded “ The Slave Trade and Carpet-Baggers Again,” which we copy from the Mobile Re gister. It now seems to be well ascertained that the Yankee carpet-baggers in the South have been, since the close of the war, enti cing negroes on vessels in Southern ports and running them off to Cuba, where they sold them as slaves! We are glad to learn that the government of the United States is now investigating the affair, and that the troth will sooner or later be established be yond controversy. *• » t 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 vote with their party. “ j p 1 • “ 1 r i 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 Campaign in Pennsylvania.—We clip .the following from the Philadelphia. Age, of the 30th ultimo : The Radicals now give np the city and State. Many of their knowing ones here, within the fest few days, admitted that their cause was lost hereabouts, and they are only working to save, if possible, the broken rem nant of their defeated army. In this hour of general joy, the Democracy. must not relax their noble:ond constant efforts to aohiqvo success. The great and glorious victor} 1 that certainly awaits them should only nerve tiieir arms to deeds of greater prowess, Work on ! Work bravely ! Work unceasmgly !

Pa. rrais _L sci< rr. p • ’ 1 r i m ; 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- graph. .. it,- h ■ - r 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. GASTKENE!
