The telegraph gives ns the important in formation that the scalawag organ in Augusta contains an anonymous communication pur porting to give accounts of Ku Klux outrages in Warren and adjoining counties. There is, in all probability, not the slightest foundation for the story which is fabricated in the inter est of the miserable carpet-bag vagabonds who are now in Washington endeavoring to induce the Government to send txoopa to Georgia, and who have declared it to bs the intention of their dirty little faction to appeal to Congress to remand the State, now that they can rely on negro votes no longer to se cure them in the offices, back to military rule. Having failed to get up a collision be tween tlie whites and blacks at the late elec tion, they arejnow engaged in propagating falsehoods to serve their infamous purposes. We would suggest to tne Agent of the Asso ciated press that it would be as well to let these slanders reach the Northern public, for whom they are intended, by the ordinary course of mail. th Vi IMPORTANT DECISION. A correspondent of the Macon Messenger informs that paper that at the November term of Crawford Superior Court, held at Knoxville last week, Hon. James W. Geeen, of Flint Circuit, presiding, the Grand Jury returned a true bill against one Bill Dent, for illegal voting, the said Dent having the of November, 1868, cast his vote for for President of the United States, having previously paid his taxes for eding year. The prisoner was ar- and plead not gnilty; when the State id to substantiate the charge by pro- e allegations, when the prisoner, his counsel, J. W. Avant, B. LeSueub '. Geeen, demurred to the testimony ground that the prisoner was voting under the proclamation of his Excellency, Gov. Bullock; consequently the evidence was illegal and inadmissible. An animated discussion ensued. After the argument closed the Court sustained the motion and ordered the discharge of the prisoner, thus sustaining the Governor’s proclamation. So the Bullock is law in spite of the Con stitution or the Code. The Outgoing Cabinet.—According to the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette, the several members of the Cabinet are not only busy in the preparation of their annual reports, but also in perfecting their arrangements for private.life. Secretary Mc Culloch goes to Europe to take charge of a branch of Jat Cooke’s bank to be established in London. Mr. Sewabd, having abandoned all hope of being retained as premier under under the next administration, retires to Au burn on the 4th of March next to enjoy his otiumcum digniUde. Secretary Welles says he shall welcome the day that relieves him of the Navy Department and allows his return to the land of steady habits. Secretary Browning returns to his home in Illinois im mediately upon his retirement, and will not hold over the thirty days allowed him under the "civil tenure bill. Postmaster General Randall has temporarily engaged the fur nished residence of Pebbt Fuller, in the absence of that gentleman, »nd Attorney Gen eral Evaets has an eye on the Senatorial suc cession in New York. An Ugi^ Business.—The United States Minister to Paraguay, Mr. Washbubne, has- got into an ugly scrape with President Lopez. It appears that Lopez charges him with hav ing entered into the conspiracy for his assass ination, and received therefor the comfortable little snm of $140,000. The Foreign Secre tary, Bulges, who was one of the conspirators, and who has tumed^tate’s evidence, testifies to the fact; and a letter, purporting to he from one of the United States legation, Pob- teb C. Bliss, admitting the charges against Washbubn, is adduced in confirmation. It is said, on behalf of Washbubne, vhat this let ter'was extorted by torture, and that Bliss, in letters to his friends, denies all the allega- " tions. As Lopez is not a man to be trifled with, ' after he heard this tale, he did not pay much respect to the sanctify of the Embassador, who found it convenient to leave promptly. As the flag has been insulted, an American war vessel has gone up the river to look after its vindication. Election Expenses in New York.—The World estimates the money expended by the Radicals on the New York State election at one million and a hall The candidate for Governor was bled very freely—.to the tune, it is said, of $250,000. The whole Whisky Ring aided. Wooley even was on hand, talking and betting against Seymour. This million and a half is exclusive of the expen ditures in the Congressional canvass, where immense sums were used. In the Buffalo district the candidate is reported to have spent S40.009—or nearly three dollars for each voter. Great country! Glorious insti tutions! ’ Indians Moving on -iw.m Reservations.— Colonel Tappan, one of the Indian peace, commission, has just returned to Washington from the far West, and reports that 70,000 friendly Indians are moving on the reserva tions provided, by treaty. The Arrapahoes, Cheyennes, Keowas, and Comanches, number ing some 5,000, are on the war path, and the army is in motion against them. Colonel Tappan thinks that speculating traders and other whites are, to a great degree • responsi ble for the offensive attitude assumed by the latter tribes. Grant’s Adn AUON—So MOTE IT BE.— We saw-clay before yesterday* private letter from a gentleman in high political position, and a warm personal and political friend of GenTGEANTi - It is asserted, if the South was quiet and opposed no fractious opposition, Gen. Grant would give her a liberal, concil iatory administration, which would satisfy all reasonable men.—Macon Telegraph. Incendiarism.—The Macon Telegraph learns that the gin-house and eighty hales of cotton, on the plantation of Col. It A. Jordan, in Lee county, was horned on Tuesday morn ing last. Loss estimated at $12,000. Cir cumstances indicate that it was an act of the incendiary. 1 1 1 THE CUBAN REVOLUTION. There are many rumors afloat in regard to the political disorders now existing in Cnba, by some termed an insurrection, by others a revolution. According to some accounts the movement is only an outbreak of a. few desperate malcontents and adventurers who have taken advantage of the recent success ful revolution in the mother country to-in dulge their propensities for license and plun der. Some represent it as another filibuster enterprise, having its origin and head in tbia country, and for its object the annexation of the Island to- the United State*—while others represent it os a formidable revolution on the part of thenative'Cubans,in pursuance of their determination to relieve themselves from the unjust oppressions of the Spanish government With no certain knowledge as to the true status of affairs in Cuba or of the views and wishes of the Cuban people, the Northern jiress is discussing the question of annexation, some deprecating the acquisition of the Island, as it would add several millions of blacks to the present colored population who threaten to Africanise the Southern States, others hailing it as providing a refuge to which the blacks of the South might bo induced to emigrate en masse, and where “they might live iu idleness and in a semi- savage state, under the protection of the stars and stripes.” A writer in the Baltimore Gazette, evidently an intelligent Cuban, throws some/light on this subject, showing very clearly that .not only is the present movement a revolution for Cuban independence, but also that annexa tion to the United States does not enter into the designs of the revolutionists. Tracing the efforts of the Caban people to throw, off the Spanish yoke, from the first attempt in 1822 down to the ill-fated expedition under General Lopez in 1851, closing with the breaking up of the expedition organized by General Quittman in 1853, the writer asserts that annexation never was a favorite'project with a majority of the Cubans. He says they consented to it as a last resort in 1853, when they would have come in as one of the States of the American Union, ‘^wheeled into line naturally by the side of the slave-holding States, with whom they had a community of interests, and helped to fix the balance of power in the National Congress." But the changes which have taken place in this country, not less than those which have affected the relations of Cnba with the mother country, have changed the views ol the Caban people in regard to the policy of annexation. The Cubans no longer look to such an expedient, though they have never renounced their hopes of freedom, and have only awaited their opportunity. We give the conclusion of the writer’s article: Now, in 1868, the opportunity presents it self,and in what maimer ? It is brought abont by an incident which recalls to the mind the early days of the American revolution. Two Cuban planters, Messrs. Aguileras and Ces- pedes, refuse to submit any longer to the ex tortions of greedy officials; soldiers arc sent to take possession of their property and their persons; they arm their slaves and make a successful resistance. Their neighbors join them, and the revolution is inaugurated. The cup was full; one drop caused it to overflow. The speed with which this small band of rebels has increased to an army capable of defying the royal forces is proof evident that the slumber in which the revolutionary party had remained during the past fifteen years only served to conceal its steadily increasing influence. “ The peaceful revolution accomplished in Spain was almost simultaneous with these events. Had General Lersundi proclaimed immediately his adhesion to the new Govern ment, the revolutionary movement in Cuba would have died in its incipient state—there would have been nothing to overthrow.. But the course of the Captain General was calcu lated to excite suspicion; he acted as the faithful subject of Queen Isabella might be expected to act; and thp result was that the moderate party, who wonld have been per fectly content with the privileges gained by the overthrow of the Queen’s Government, threw themselves into the arms of the, revo lutionists. The patriots are not -fighting against a monarchy which no longer exists, but against General Lersundi. They want to govern their own affairs, to take the reins in their hands, and wait for the further develop ment of events in the mother country. There can be no doubt thatif a repnblio -was established in Spain the people of Cuba would accept the situation—provided they were guaranteed their rights and privileges. But there is little prospect that a republic could live in Europe, and a simple change oi dynasty, with constitutional guarantees, seems to be the aim of the Spanish leaders. Should this be effected, Spain will lose her colonies—not by the act of Cubans alone, hut, because the republican party of Spain will throw their influence with the colonists. There will be no distinction between Span iards and Creoles, but between republicans and royalists. To these the old homestead of the Pelagi, with its glorious memories; to those the bequest of Columbus. Here the future; there the past ‘Such is the situation, such the hopes of the Cubans, the dream for which Narciso Lo- >ez gave his life. Few think of annexation. iVhat wonld they gain by it ? A mere change of masters. They want constitutional liberty, and the events of the past seven years have shown them that they are not to look for it in the land of Washington. Thby know that slavery is doomed; they do not' wish to per petuate it; but neither do they wish to see negro supremacy in their fair land. They do not wish to set loose suddenly the hordes of African savages whom they hold in bondage. They are not prepared to bny the title of American citizens at the cost of rained homes, violated women and murdered children. They will free the negro in a manner bene- dal to him, bnt not hurtful to themselves. The Cubans do not beg for admission into the Union. They do not encourage conquer ing expeditions. They invite all true lovers of liberty to assist them in securing their inde pendence; and this effected, to take up their abode with them, and enjoy together, in peace and security, the blessings of a free gov ernment based npon justice and right They want no agitators, no fanatics, no “carpet- M Li RADICAL EFFORTS TO PREVENT IM MIGRATION TO THE SOUTH The London Daily Dews, an English Radi' cal journal, has a correspondent in New York who furnishes it with the same sort of matter that is so acceptable to the Radi cal press in this country. In one of his let ters he thus describes the condition of things in Texas:-? .-zam■ » * “The accounts from the Sonth do not change materially. In Texas, society may be said to be dissolved, at least outside one or two'Of the laigBr towns. - The only safety for anybody is to ‘ the Federal 1 ground they in the hands of mots, who murder and bum houses at their will; and they, too, act under no recognized head, or in accordance with any fixed plan. This wonld be more dread ful if it were much of a change, hut it is not —things were as bad as this during the war, and not very much better before it" A Liverpool firm seeing thin extraordinary statement, addressed a letter to the Hon. Revebdy Johnson, asking whether it was true that such a frightful picture fairly represented Texas. This firm, as the agent of a steam ship line running between Liverpool and Gal veston, was naturally desirous of knowing whether emigrants to Texas were likely to be murdered immediately upon their arrival. Mr. Johnson replied as follows: “No. 4, Upper Portland Place, Oct 30. “Sir:—The letter from New York pub lished in the Daily News of the 16th instant, to which your, note of the 16th instant calls my attention, I have read. As its statements are calculated to injure the interests of Texas, and as I am satisfied that they are unfounded, I feel bound to comply with your request, left the United States on the 1st of Angnst, and for years immediately preceding was a member of the Senate of the United States. In that capacity it was my duty to inform myself of the condition of toe Southern States, and this I did from sources npon which I knew that full reliance could be placed; and toe knowledge tons obtained enables me to say that the statements in the letter referred to are unfounded. That there are acts of violence in that State is no doubt true, but mot more, I believe, than occur in either of tho other States, or in any other country. I have no doubt, therefore, that emigrants into the State will be as safe as in any other part of the Union. I remain, sir, very respectfully, your obedient Servant, j. ‘ 'Revebpy Johhson. ” Tho publication of his letter in this coun try, says toe Baltimore Gazette, has been re ceived with a volley of execration and abuse from toe Radical journals. His refusal to endorse all Radical falsehoods about the South has subjected him to unmeasured in vective. The Baltimore American, chiming in with loader and more important organs, says he is “ giving Texas a first-class recom mendation as a peaceful and orderly State, and defending his friends, the rebels, from toe charge of outrages and murders which we all know to be rife there, bnt which Mr. Johnson has toe effrontery to deny out and out.” A citizen of Baltimore once asked, under somewhat similar circumstances, “Is there no such thing as a fact ?” We feel very much inclined now to answer in toe negative. A scribbler in New York writes to an English paper in Texas “toe only safety for anybody is to be found inside the quarters of the .Fed eral troops, and they hold only toe ground they encamp on.” To this and other lies of toe same sort, Mr. Johnson gives a flat denial, and for 60 doing Mr. Johnson is denounced os a defender of outrage and murder. Truth may be “mighty,” but it does not “prevail” alto gether in these days. THE DUTY AND THE INTEREST OF THE SOUTH. The “Mobile Merchants' Exchange Prices Cur rent ” contains the following timely and ju* dicious remarks, touching alike the duty and interest of Southern planters, which we com mend to all: In view of toe near approach of a finan cial panic in toe North, and on , uncertainty attending toe status of itinerant buyers and drummers, scattered throughout the Southern States, it would he an act of abundant cau tion for planters to send their crops to South ern markets, and-through known houses, for sale, or to be held subject to their orders. The South has lost her political status, let her take care that she does not sacrifice her com mercial and cotton interest in a too crednlons belief that toe large cities of the North will pay comparatively more than they can get in home markets. This may bo appreciated now, but when toe average returns of the season are known, toe planting interest will learn to its loss that there is no sentiment alism in money or business.” Besides, remarks toe Charleston Courier, what a mine of wealth are our planting friends allowing to dispense toe benefits which accrue from its negotiation by, and among others, instead of themselves, and their own lo calities. Take toe hundreds of millions in produce, which are wrought out of the soil, by toe Sonth this year, equal to jnst so much gold, the foundation of your foreign ex changes, and think for a moment how yon are giving all the immediate and collateral advantages which accompany and follow its negotiation, for the enrichment other of sec tions and the proportionate impoverishment of your own ! Shall we never learn wisdom ? SUSPENSION Mail advices from Puerto Principe to Octo ber 30to state that, despite false reports from Havana, the revolution has overspread toe whole Eastern Department, and toe Central Department is almost ready to join in it The leaders are men of high social position, great wealth and talent, and have commenced toe revolutionary movement by freeing their own slaves and marching to toe front with them. The Spanish troops can barely hold the ground they occupy. An attack on Puerto Principe was daily expected, and many fam ilies were leaving for Nassau. They would go to the United States, but are not allowed to by toe Government The Chptain General of Cnba telegraphs toe Spanish Consul in New York that toe insur rection ra breaking up. Terrible Storm in Mexico.—San Francis co dispatches of toe 17to say that a terrible wind and rain stoim raged over Mexico from October 15to to toe 18th, doing immense damage and causing great suffering and loss of life. The city of Alamas, State of Sonora, having a population of seven thousand, was destroyed by toe flood and whirlwind. Lo- reUo, Lower California, and several other small tows, were entirely demolished. Herds of cattle were swept away. - Orange groves and crops were totally destroyed. Yugal and Mayo rivers rose forty feet < The national army, according to toe last report of toe Adjutant-General, is composed of but 43,741 men, white and black, commis sioned and non-commissioned. General Chant’s gradual retrenchment has told signifi cantly on its numbers. . Coin, in the Treasury.—The amount of coin in toe United States Treasury at this date is above $87,000,000, of which $22,000,- 000 are represented by gold certificates. OF THE CHARLESTON MERCURY. The telegraph, a day or two since, an nounced toe suspension of this time-honored journal. Supposing at toe time that toe sus pension was only temporary, we made no allusion to it _We regret to learn from the Courier, of Thursday, that the publication of the Mercury has been discontinued under cir cumstances which will render its suspension indefinite, if not final For the past thirty years no newspaper in toe country has occu pied a more prominent position, or exerted a greater influence in the world of politics than the Charleston Mercury. Ever toe able and fearless advocate and champion of con stitutional State Bights principles, its name will in the future be associated with toe lost cause, with which toe true spirit of American republicanism was extinguished. The Courier thus speaks of its late cotem porary : The Charleston Mercury.—It is with re gret that we announce toe suspension of this valued journal of toe South. For a long se ries of years, it has been a welcome visitor to many hearths in our Southern land; and an able advocate of the cause of constitntional right In all of its principles it was fearless and sincere. Although differing wito it, at times during its long career, yet we cannot bnt feel that it was ever animated by bnt one conviction, and that a desire for what is firmly believed to be troth and justice. Un der toe proprietorship of Col. R. B. Rhett, jr., and Brother, its editorials have been able -and comprehensive. It has been one of toe household institutions of our oity and State, and aB such it will be missed at many a fire side and home. The relations between our late eotemporary and ourselves, were of the most kindly char acter. Not only toe community in which it was published, bnt toe whole South, wfll re gard with sadness,, toe disappearance of our cotemporary from toe journalism of the land. No newspaper in the South can live on subscriptions. They but help to pay toe ex penses. It is the advertising patronage that gives success or failure to a daily journal. And a sufficiency of this, notwithstanding toe Mercury's large subscription lists, it did not receive. Hence its suspension. Odd Fellows The semi-centennial anni versary of toe establishment of toe order of Odd Fellows in toe United States, will occur oh the 26to of April next The event will be celebrated by a national fete in Philadelphia. The programme includes an immense proces sion of members of toe order in full regalia. A Committee of toe Grand Lodge is already engaged in. the work of making preparations. ■ iV ‘f SUPREME COURT.

When tho purs medtotual restorative, now so widely known as Wolfe's Schiedam Hobnappa, wss Introduced into the world under tho endorsement of four thou sand leading members Of tho medical profession sorno 20 years ago, its proprietor was *eU aware that It could not wholly sscapo tho penalty attached to all new and useful preparations. Ho, therefore, ondeav- ored to invest It with strongest possible safeguards against counterfeiters, and to render all attempts to pirate it difficult and dangerous. It waa submitted to distinguished oheminats for analysis, and pronounced by them the purest spirit ever manufactured. IU pu rity and properties having been thus ascertained, sam ples of the article were forwarded to ten thousand physicians, including all the leading praotltlonors in the United States, for purposes of exporimen. circular, requesting a trial of tho preparation and a re port of the result, accompanied each specimont. Four thousand of the most eminent medics! man In the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the article were unanimously favorable. Such a prepara tion, they said, had long been wanted by tho profes sion, as no reliance could he plsoed on tho ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or adulterated, and therefore unlit for medical purposes. The peculiar excelenco and strength of tho oil of Juni per, which formed one of tho principle Ingredients of the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic element, give It, in the estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over evory other diffusive stimulant aa a diuretic tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from professional men of the highest rank were published in a con densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one of the guarantees of its genuine ness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted: a patent Was obtained for the article, the table was copywrighted, a fax simile of the proprietor's autograph signature waa attached to each table and cover, his name and that of the preparation were em bossed on the bottles, and the corks were sealed with his private seal. No article had ever been sold in this country nnser the name of Schnapps prior to' the In troduction of Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, to 1851; and tbe lablo was deposited, as bis trade maifc. In the United States District Court for tho Southern District of New York daring that year. It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with the daring character of the pirates who prey upon the reputation of honorable merchants by vending delete rious trash under their name, that tho protections so carefully thrown around these Sconapps would have precluded the introductions and sale of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostors. The trade mark of the proprie tor has been stolen; the indorsement which his Schie dam Aromatic Schnapps alone rccclvcdfrem. the medi cal profession has been claimed by mendacious hum- buga; his labels and bottles have been imitated, his ad vertisements paraphrased, his circulars copied, and worse than all, dishonorable retailers, after disposing of the genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them up with common gin, the most deleterious of all liquors, and thus vnas. hia name fapmd a cover for poison. Tbe public, the medical profession and the sick, for whom tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ia prescribed ass remedy, are oqumlly interested with the proprie tor In the detection and suppression of these nefari ous practices. The genuine article, manufactured at the establishment of the undersigned, in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled front * bsrioy of the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract or the berry of the Italian Juniper, of .unequalled purify. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it is freed from every acrimonious and corrosive element. Complaints have been received from the loading physicians and femilles in tho Southern States of the ■ate of cheap Imitations of the Bchiedam Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travellers, who are in the habit of using it as aa antidote to the baneful in fluence of unwholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put up in Schiedam, bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the unwary. The ay.*, of tho undersigned have been requested to institute inquiries on the sub- Ject, and to forward, to him tho names of such parties' as they may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocious ay atom of deception. In condaston, tho u wonld say that ha hae produced, from under the hands of the moat distinguish od men of ecienco in America, proofs unanswerable of the purify and medicinal ex cellence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he ham expended many thousand dollars insnmnmdhtff It with guarantees and safeguards, which he designed ■honldprotectthspahko and himself againstftadnlmit imitations; tost he has shown it to be the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly depended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison, and experiment in all its forms; and from every ordeal tho preparation which bears hia name, seal and trade mark, has come off triumphant. He therfore feels it a duty he owes to hfe felfow-dtizeas generally, to the medical professioii and the «icir, to denounce and expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identify, and he calls npon the pram and the public to mid him in his efforts to remedy so great an evil.

New Yosz Nov. 21, 1867. UnoLFHo Wolfe, Esq., Present: Dsib Sib: I have made a chemical examination of a sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, with the intent of determining if any foreign or injurious substance had been added to the dagte spirits. The examination has resulted to the conclusion tbs± the sample contained no poisonous or harmful admix ture. I have been unable to discover any trace of tbe srious substances which are employed to the adulteration of liquors. I would not hesitate to use myself or to recommend to others, for medical pur poses, the Schiedam Schnapps as an excellent and un objectionable variety of gin. Very respectfully yours, (Signed) CHAS. A. SEELY, New Yobx, S3 Ceuab Stexsx, November 28, 1867. Udolpbo Wolfe, Esq., Present: Deas Sm: I have submitted to chemical analysis two bottles of “Schiedam Schnapps.” which I took from a fresh package to your bonded warehouse, and find, as before, that the spirituous liquor ia free from injurious ingredients or falsification; that it has the marks of being aged and not recently prepared by LTdeai admixture of alcohol and aromatics. Respectfully, FRED. F, MAYBE, Chemist. New Youe, Tuesday, Marl. UBolfho Wolfe, Esq.: 3 DbabSis: The want of pure Wines and Liquors for nedietoal purposes has been long felt by the profes sion, and thousands of lives have been sacrificed br the use of adulterated articles. Delirium tremens, and other diseases of the brain and nerves, so rife to this country, are very rare in Europe, owing, to a great degree, to the difference in the purify of the. spirits sold. We have tested tho several articles imported —yr sold by you, including your Gin, which you sell co der the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which we consider justly entitled to the high reputatkm it has acquired to this country; and from your lone ex perience as s foreign importer,your Bottled Wtoesand Liquors should meet with the same demand. We would recommend you to appoint some of the respectable apothecaries to different parte of tho city' aa agents for the sale of your Brandies and Wines, where the profession can obtain the same when need ed for medicinal purposes. shtog you success in your new enterprise, WeTcmiln your obedient servants, VALENTINE MOTT.
