"A Mjcmbcb or Coxoaxss Indicted roa An-
nxoxn Bioamt. —The grand jury of the Dis
trict of Columbia has indicted the Hon. C. C.
F. Bowen, a Republican member of Congress
from South Carolina, for alleged bigamy. Mr.
ttowen was married in Washington City on
the evening of the ‘21st of August last to Airs.
H. l’ettigru King, while at that time, at al
leged, a petition for divorce filed by Mrs.
Tsbitha ttowen in the Louisville Chancery
Court, for divoroe from Hon. C. C. Bowen,
Congressman from Charleston, S. C., was
still pending. In his haste to marry, Mr.
ttowen is charged with committing bigamy,
aod for this he has now boen indicted by the
grand jury of the District, a true bill having
been found against him.
Our Washington correspondent, in his let
ter published yesterday, seems to be im-
preseed with the idea that the Honorable
Carpet-Bagger Bowen is the victim of perse
cution, and that bis indictment for bigamy is
the work of personal enemies of his own par
ty. •• Puck" is not quite so well informed in
regard to Bowen's career as we are in this
quarter, or he would have attempted no de
fense of him against charges notoriously true.
If bigamy was the only crime that Bowen
stands charged with, his qualifications as a
leading Radical would be more questionable
than they are.
Contemplated Confiscation of Bbandt in
Bond.—The new Tariff act, which takes effect
January 1, provides thst all brandy and sjd-
ritueus liquors in packages of less capacity
than •fourteen gallons r»oh shall be forfeited
to the United States. For the convenience
of purchasers casks have been imported of
ten gallons each, in a box or package con
taining four such. The enforcement of this
provision, if by decision of the department
g 'nds iu bond on the 1st of January are in-
eluded, will forfeit a large amount of brau-ly.
The question is up for construction as to
whether the law relates entirely to goods im
ported after that day, or goods then found in
bond.
The Radical party in the Southern States
is becoming so demoralized as to attrac*. at
tention even at Washington. In Texas the
Senators are making war upon Gov. Davis.
In Arkansas Gov. Clayton is n candidate for
Senator against Senator McDonald, whose
term expires tho 4th of March next In
South Carolina Gov. Scott is arrayed against
tne entire Congressional delegation from that
State, and in Louisiana there is a lively fight
iu progress between Gov. Warmouth and
Lieut Gov. Dunn. The indications impress
the politicians at Washington that a majority
Af the Southern States will go Democratic at
the next Presidential election.
General Grant went into the army as poor
as a church mouse. He is now very rich,
and his wealth is rapidly augmenting. No
doubt he will leave the Presidency one of tha
richest men in the nation. The Radical lead
ers boast that the Radical is a party of pro
gress. The case of General Grant is an illus*
tration in point. He progrease-1 from pover
ty, when he ctruck tho army, in 1861, until
he has beoome one of the wealthieat million
aires in the country. So much for “gift en
terprises."
Revenue Ku-Klux.—Tho illustrious Mul
lins, of Tennessee, lately rejoicing in a Radi
cal seat in Congress, is now an Internal Rev
enue Collector. In the discharge of his
"duty," the other day, Mullins And a posse
fell upon one of Africa’s sable sons in Frank
lin county, and hanged him by the neck
twice to a tree. In order to extort information
about an illicit distillery. In consequence of
thus acting and doing, Africa had Mullins
arrested and indicted.
It is understood that the members of Con-
grass from the South and Southwest have
determined to vote for no more railroad sub
sidies for the Northwest until a disposition
shall be auurisftod by Western Representa
tives to aid tbe Southern roads. The South
ern members say they have long enough sub
sisted on promise, and now they want some
more substantial amuranoe that their railroad
linea are to be benefitted by donations of
publio lands.
The Mi chi-ganders are far from being
*geera. Iq 1868 Grant bad 81,181 majority in
that State; last month the Radical candidate
for Governor was el sc ted by some 15,000 ma
jority. while an amendment to strike the
| word "white" from the State Constitution
81 had a majority of only about 1,300. The
people cf Michigan are slowly but surely
makinff up their minds that Radicalism has
*' gone in'* as they term it out there.
Tux G boio ia Sen atoxsotf.— A Washington
correspondent of the OonstitulionaVst writes

4 'Image of European Policy.
There are two important modificationsT>f
European policy that.sure -l'kely to charac
terise futare negotiation* in that quarter of
the world: 1. The united duration of trea
ties. 2. Popular coneantto the transfer of
territory either by purchase or conquest. Th#
difference between tbe two English parties,
the one who conoeive the honor of the nation
and the European balance of power involved
in the dispute with Russia, and the other,
who wish to purchase peace at almost any
price—this difference turns on the first of
these modifications. . Russia demands a revi
sion of the treaty of 1856, by which she was
placed under oertaln restrictions with regard
to the navigation of the Eaxineorttiaek Bea.
Her plea, a very plausible one, is that cir
cumstances have changed since that treaty
was negotiated, and that in tbe reason of
things she it no longer bound to its provi
sions. j * .
But the argument assumes wider propor
tions than any mere question between the
contracting parties to that treaty. Ita true
significance reaches all nations who acknowl
edge the influence of public law and the
binding obligations of treaties. The discus
sion of this question has brought into tbe
nrena of debate two of the most able minds
in Europe—John Stuart Mill and F. Fronde,
the celebrated historian. The former con
tends that treaties are not of perpetual obli
gation—that their provisions' are liable to
change with circumstances which no longer
render them applicable, that the treaty of
1856 falls within this category, and that Great
Britain is not bonnd in honor to go to war to
maintain its provisions.
Mr. Fronde argues the question on the
ground of expediency. He contends that
Great Britain is not prepared for war while
there are unadjusted matters in dispute be
tween her and the United States, referring to
tbe Alabama claims and the fishery question.
The probability is that the Peace party will
prevail in Parliament. The English people
appear to be mors alive to considerations of
profit than those of honor in the present
state of affairs, and to the loss of trade than
to tbe prestige of one of the States of Europe
who regard her safety as involved in the
equilibrium of Europe.
The other question, as likely to engage tho
serioas attention of any conference that may
assemble in the present eritical state of affair*,
is the popular consent to the annexation of
foreign territory acquired by conquest or
purchase. This question is of the highest
importance in the present attitude of affairs
as involving the principles of self-govern
ment. Ever since tbe appeal of the elder
Napoleon to Ihe popular vote, this principle
bns been acquiring fuller development, and
has now been recognized as of paramount
importance. The people of France lent their
sanction to the assumption of supreme au
thority as Republican ruler, and subsequent
ly as Imperial chief of the second empire in
1852. When Nice and Savoy were annexed
to France the same principle was predomi
nant on the question of their annexation to
France. The government of Italy gave addi
tional sanction to the principle when Rome
became incorporated with the kingdom of
Italy.
The bearing of this question cannot but be
reoognized iu the present critical state of
affairs, when Germany demands by right ot
conquest the dismemberment of France by
the annexation of Alsace and Lorraine to
her territorial possessions without the assent
of the people of those two provinces, and
there is great probability that both these
questions will come up for discussion at the
next Conference oi ine great run era. uuuieij.
the perpetual obligation of tieaties uudtr
varying circunisUincss, and the necessity of
popular assent to the transfer of territory,
whether by purchase or conquest.
Troops Tor the Election.
The Provident-General seems determined
that Georgia shall not be lost to the Radicals
through the want ot United States bayonets
to back thst party at the polls daring the
election, which will take place next week.
From present appearances United States
soldiers will be found next Tuesday morning
at the polls iu every county in tho State,
where they will have been sent by the nation
al Government for tbe almost openly avowed
purpose of seeming at all hazards a Republi
can triumph. Although the troops which
were stationed in this city daring the muni
cipal election were sent back to Atlanta a few
days sgo, it seems that tbe polls iu Augusta
are to be “protected" ana the inhabitants
overawed by the bayonets of Uacle Sam's
boys daring the coming election. On yester
day morning a company of soldiers belong
ing to the 18th infantry United States army,
and commanded by Captain Estes, arrived in
this city from Atlanta. They have been
quartered in Columbia Hall, near tbe corner
of Broad and Kollock streets, in the Fourth
Ward, where they will remain until alter tho
election. Nice employment this Is for tbe
troops of the Government.—Aug. Chronicle.
The act of the Government in sending
troops into the State of Georgia to be present
at the election next week con be viewed in no
other light than as a confession to the world
of its own frauil and premeditated outrage.
There ia not to-day a more orderly, law-abid
ing State in the Union thAn Georgia. There
is not a community in which the civil au
thority is more respected or more rigidly en
forced. There is to-day no disorder, or threats
of disorder in any portion of the 8tate—no
disposition to deprive any citizen, white or
black, of his legal rights. The people are
quietly, and with leas excitement than usual,
preparing to exercise the elective franchise
which is guaranteed to them by the Consti
tution and laws of the State, determined to
exercise that right calmly, fairly and orderly,
and to proteet all in the some privilege. Then
why this parade of Fedeial bayonets? If it
does not proceed from a conviction on the
part of the Government of a fraud already
perpetrated, it must be for tbe accomplish
ment of a contemplated outrage; The Fede
ral authorities either regard the iniqnitous
election law, which they have forced upon
the people, aa too outrageous and unjust to
be quietly submitted to by a free people, or
they are determined to overawe the legal
voters and carry the election by the bayonet
In this, however, they will be defeated.
The true men of Georgia, conscious of their
strength, are not to be over-awed or driven
from their purpose. They ore determined,
despite the infamous Akerman law, to de
posit their votes in the ballot-box daring the
three days of tbe election. They are de
termined also to have a fair election, so con
ducted as to afford no exense or opportunity
for military interference. With this deter
mination they regard with Indifference the
military preparation, and look forward with
confidence to a peaceful triumph at the polls.
An Ofesatic Kicrza.—The New Fork pa
pers are excited just now over a new phase
of (he woman question. A prime donna in
one of the German theatres in that city, fair
—and probably fat atfd forty—grew jealous
of the youth and beauty of one of the
yonoger members, and, in the course of a
publio performance, took occasion to tent
her apleen by kicking the blushing maiden
before the entire audience. The young lady,
thongh a subordinate, was spirited, rad, not
having knightly ambition enough to desire
to be "booted" as well os ’•spurred," she put
the matter in tbe bands of the greedy press
reporters, who !o*t no time in ventilating it.
The case is one whieh calls for the cool judg*
meat of thst famous female administrator,
Brevet Brigadier General Betsey Stanton.
Do Yon Hear that, Boys?
Alluding to tbe approaching election in
in this State, the Mobile Register express
the hopes and sentiments of hundreds of
thousands of true Democrats throughout the
Union, who await with deep interest and
warm sympathy the result of the great battle
to be fought at tbe. ballot-box in Georgia
next week, in support of tho principles of th£
Constitution and tbe rights of the people.
Tbe editor says:
Georgia, one of the old original Thirteen,
has been ground as severely in tbe mill of
Jacobin reconstruction as any of her confede
rates iu suffering. But to the honor of the
land of Crawford and Troup, she has never
for a moment thought of a final surrender of
the independence of her sotil, or ceased to
ffght the power that oppressed her at every
step, looking forward with the eye of pro
phetic faith to the end of redemption. Cartes,
she has had many a hard tug, and sorely hM
her patience and fortitude been tried through
the long dark days of the reign of Federal
bayonets, itinerant carpet-baggers and do-
me8tic traitors of the aealawag type. In a
tew days will come e field-day -for another
battle with her oppressors. She has tremen
dous odds to contend against, for the whole
power of Grant's government has been ex
erted to throw every obstacle in tho way of a
fair field and no favors. But every man who
lovos liberty and abhors oppression will earn
estly hope that the unequal struggle will ter
minate in a glorious victory. North Carolina
and Alabama have ahown their Georgia sister
what may be done by a people true to them
selves and their traditions. God nerve her
heart in the struggle and defend the right! £
Instructions to the Military.
The following letter cf instrnctions, a copy
of which has been addressed to all post com
manders in the State, fully explains itself:
Hcad’qxs Milxtaby District or Gbohoia, f _
Atlanta, Deoember —, 1870. J
To-
Sib—You will proceed to , in
county, for the purpose of assisting, in case
of necessity, the civil authorities of that Mon
ty to preserve the peace during the eloction,
which will take plaoe on the 20th, 21st and
22d days of the present month. This duty is
a delicate one, and which moat be lelt to
your discretion, but the following general in
structions are given yon for your guidance:
On arriving at your destination, you will
communicate with tbe civil authorities • and
inform them that your force will be subject
to the calloi Commissioners of Elections end
of officers who are authorized to summon a
posse and make arrests, and that you will act
only when called upon by them, or some of
them, and then only in such manner as they
may direct On the daya of the election, you
will post your troops aV such distance fiom
the polls as will enable you. to act with rea
sonable promptitude in case yon are called
npon; but yon will not place them at or in
view of the polls, nor will you permit your
men, individnallv, to go to, or approach the
polling place. If called npon to assist in
preserving the peace yon will ose no force ex
cept when it ia specially directed by a proper
civil officer—Commissioner of Election,
Sheriff; Deputy Sheriff; etc., eto.—or in the
last extremity for eelf-preacrvation. In no
case should it be used until all other means
of preserving tho peace shall have been ex
hausted— until persuasion shall have failed.
At all times the utmost patience and far-
btaranco must be exhibited.
You will cacao it to be understood that
yonr presence is solely for the purpose oi
aiding tbe civil authorities to preserve the
peace, and that yon will act in the interest of
no party and for the accomplishment of no
partisan purpose. And it is advised that yon
refrain, and cause your men to refrain, from
the discussion of political topics and the ex
pression of political opinions. Should a riot
occur, and should you not be called upon for
afi8i*!ncre by a property authorized civil offi
cer, yon will coufine yourself to giving pro
tection at tho place where your troops may
Ko utaliaixod t J uuoh petuouw as may CP ok a
refuge from violence among yonr men. In
this case, however, you will protect no one
from legal an eft t. Your atteution is invited
to the following extract from an Act of Con
gress approved February 25tb, 1805:
"That it shall not be lawful for any mili
tary or navui officer of the United States, or
other person engaged in the civil, military or
naval service of tbe United State*, to order,
bring, keep, or Lave under his authority or
control, any troops or armed men at the
place where any general or special election
is held in any State of the United States of
America, unless it shall be necessary to repel
the armed enemies of the United States, or to
keep the peace at the polls.”
By order of Brigadier General Terry.
J. H. Tatlob,
Assistant Adjutant General.
Democratic Meeting.
A Democratic meeting was held at Gould's
old mill, in Chatham couuty, Georgia, oa
the 14'h instant. R. J. Wade, Esq., was
called to the Chair, and Mr. C. A. Cook was
requested to act as Secretary.
The meeting was opened with prayer by
the Rev. John Norris. In a few forcible re
marks the Chairman staled that the object of
the meeting was to urge upon every true Dem
ocrat who had the interest of tbe State at
heart to go the golls at the approaching elec
tion and cast his vote for tbe entire nominees
of the Democratic party.
Hon. Philip M. Itumell and several other
citizens addressed the meeting.
At the close of the meeting the following
resolutions were unanimously adopted;
Resolved, That, feeling at this time the ne-
ceasity for united and well-directed efforts in
the support of the Democratic cause, we
pledge ourselves to rapport the nominees of
the Democratic party.
Resolved, That we each feel it incumbent
on us to call on our neighbors and urge the
necessity of united action in this important
contest, and shall devoto our time during the
struggle and use our beet exertions to further
the canae, and assist our co-laborers In this
moat important issue to tho interest of our
State.
Resolved, That the Savannah Mqbnixo
Nbwb, Republican and Daily Advertiser nje,
hereby requested to publish the proceedings
of this meeting.
Robt. J. Wade, Chairman.
C. A. Cook, Secretary.
Applying the Enforcement Law.—The
Federal officers in Virginia are arresting
judges of elections and citizens of that State
under various pretences of violation of the
Federal election law. The Annapolis corres
pondent of tbe Baltimore QazeUt says:
" Mr. Gyrus Joyce, a farmer, residing in
tho third district of this county, who was ar
rested a few days since by Deputy United
Slates Marshal Arthur Carter, upon the
charge of attempting to preveut a colored
man from going to tbe polls and voting was
tried before the commissioner yesterday.
The charge not being sustained, the party
was'forthwith discharged. • Mr. Elijah Rock-
hold, whose arrest I mentioned in a former
letter, and whose cate was postponed until
additional evidence could be procured, was
acquitted by the commissioner yesterday."
These annoying usurpations and outrage*
grow out of the unconstitutional and revolu
tionary legislation which Mr. Hill tells ns
"every good citizen” mart accept as fixed
and irrevocable—and "abide and obey pre
cisely as if he had co-operated in establishing
and enacting them.’’
Th© Rev. J. F. W. Ware, in a recent lec
ture, said: There sh« in Congress to-day
one of the honored delegation of Massachu
setts, a men, iu my day, famed as driver of
six-in-hand, by whose side I hadmore-thra
ones ridden; to whose sterling vm^es, tor
recognized by Ovary men, woman andrhOd
along his route, I can add my witness.

three-in-hand—now only a Radical member
of Congress. "What a fall wqs there, ray
