Savannah, August 14, 1878.
Mentenejfro, Servfa and the Turks.
Out telegrams confirm the state-
ment in regard to the recent
defeat of the Turks by the Montenegrins
and couple the confirmation with the in
telligence that, so far as the Turks are
concerned, it is by far the greatest disas
ter of the war. The Montenegrins are a
warlike race, and their enmity to the
Turks is of such a character that no Mon
tenegrin is accounted a warrior of any
note until he can boast of having be
headed at least a dozen Mohammedans,
and no maid of that mountain land would
so far forget the traditions of her ances
tors as to smile upon the suit of a lover
who could not show indubitable evidence
of having throttled a Turk.
The war manifesto, therefore, of Prince
Milan, alluded to in our dispatches, in
which he says that Servia and Montene
gro will fight together to the last man,
evidently points to an alliance between
the two provinces that will give confi
dence to his panic-stricken followers, and
means that the war will be prosecuted in
an exceedingly lively manner.
The proclamation of the Porte inviting
Servia to submit, and offering protection
to all who make their submission mani
fest, will have little or no effect, pro
vided such an alliance has been entered
into, and we may look for the struggle to
continue with greater activity, and, so
far as the Servians arc concerned, with
greater confidence.
In connection with this Eastern ques
tion, the telegraphic publication of the
strength of Russia’s armament, follow
ing, as it does, so close upon the debate
of that subject in the British Parliament,
assumes the shape of a most taunting
boast. It is plain that the Russian bear
is impatiently waiting for a contingency
that will afford him a pretext for placing
his mailed paw upon the Ottoman op
pressors of Servia. Such a contingency
would find the Czar fully prepared to
throw down the gauntlet to England. A
peace armament of more than one mil
lion of soldiers, that can be increased in
the event of a war to more than two mil
lion and a half, is an element not to be
ignored, even by Great Britain, France
and Austria combined.
To
the Members of the Democratic
Party of Chatham County.
In pursuance of the authority vested
in me by the Executive Committee, I call
you to meet in primary meeting at the
Theatre, in the city of Savannah, this
(Friday) evening, 18th instant, at 8
o’clock, for the purpose of appointing
delegates to the Convention to be held at
Jesup on the 8th of September, to nomi
nate a candidate to represent this Con
gressional District in the next Congress
of the United States.

1 lie Prostrate State.
Our telegraphic dispatches contain the
platform of the South Carolina Demo
crats and the address of General Wade
Hampton, and they are both well worthy
of perusal. To all intents and purposes
the Carolinians have carried the
war into Africa. There is abso
lutely nothing in the platform
to which any colored man, having at
heart the material welfare and prosperity,
as well as the substantial progress, of his
section, can hesitate to subscribe, and we
are of the opinion that if the canvass is
properly conducted few colored voters of
reasonable intelligence and judgment will
refuse to fall into tine with their white
friends and aid them in ridding their
State of the burthens imposed upon
it by the reckless and irre
sponsible rulers whose maladiuinistra
tion and corruption have wrought ruin
and decay to every class and interest. The
declaration of principles flatly gives the
lie to the assertions so persistently reite.
rated by the bummers of the bloody, shirt
that there is any hostility on the part of
the whites to the colored men, and the
Carolinians emphatically pledge them
selves to secure to the negro every right
that he has under the law and to protect
him in the free exercise thereof.
Altogether, we think that if the
campaign is conducted with any
thing like enthuaiasm—if the col
ored men have benefited by their
experience with the unscrupulous adven
turers who abused their confidence by
arraying them against their best friends
and swindling them on every occasion—
South Carolina is nearer her political re
demption than at any time since the
mournful period when she bent her proud
head and, along with the rest of her
Southern sisters, passed into the deep
shadows of the Valley of Reconstruction.
Stone Kidnapped.
Our telegrams state that Judge Stone,
of Colorado, was kidnapped and carried
captive into the mountains of that State
recently, to prevent him from holdiDg
the Circuit Court and appointing a re
ceiver for the Colorado Central Railroad.
We take it that the “Judge” Stone here
alluded to is the Stone who was once
prominent in the carpet-bag poli
tics of this State and city,
and who at one time held the position of
District Attorney. For a long time Stone
cut quite a figure in Savannah as an un
scrupulous Radical politician, and it was
an occasion for general congratulation
when Grant promoted him to be a Circuit
Judge in Colorado—albeit the feeling of
congratulation was accompanied by an
unselfish sentiment of syiapatb}' and con
dolence for the good people among whom
he was to dispense “justice.”
Unless, by some miracle of church or
climate, Stone has been utterly regener^
ated—morally reconstructed, so to speak
—we can but believe that he was kid
napped in the interests of law and jus
tice, and the faot that Jay Gould has
joined in offering a reward for the arrest
of the “Judge’s” captors fully justifies
the belief. We venture to predict that
when the facts become known it will be
found that Stone’s decision in the case
was in the interest of Jay Gould and
against parties who knew that their only
method of relief was in capturing the
“Judge.” We are not in favor of sup
pressing Judges, but Stone—well, S one
is a Judge of peculiar mould.
The Boston Post says that while the
President is raging with the desire to
make war upon the South, and while
Morton and Logan and Boutwell are
stirring up old hatreds by monstrous
stories in the Senate, private advices
from the Southern States, received in
the regular course of business correspond
ence by merchants in Boston, tell of a
better state of feeling than has existed
for years. The negroes are contented,
happy and secure in their rights, learning
to practice industry and putting by a lit
tle, and the relations between blacks and
whites are friendly and harmonious. This
is the testimony of business men, plant
ers and cotton dealers, who care little for
politics except as it has a practical influ
ence upon the material prosperity of
trade and production.
The Legislative, Judicial and Execn*
lire Appropriation Oil!.
The legislative, executive and judicial
appropuation bill, as reported from the
Conference Committee and passed by
both branches of Congress Satui day, con
tains in lieu of ihe House provision re
quiring a reduction of 10 per centum on
the salaries of all collectors of customs
and employes of the custom service who
now receive more than $1,200 per annum,
a new section directing the Secretary of
the Treasury merely to “institute a care
ful scrutiny of the present condition and
competence of the force employed in the
collection of revenue from customs, with
a view of reducing the number of the
same.”
Another section added to the bill pre
vents all executive officers or employees
of the United States not appointed by
the President and confirmed by the Sen
ate from requesting, giving to or receiv
ing from any other officer or employee
any money or thing of value for political
purpose. Offenders against this pro
vision are to be immediately discharged
from service, and shall also be deemed
guilty o? a misdemeanors punishable on
conviotion thereof by flee not ex
ceeding $500. The salaries of the
officers and principal employees in
the various mints, assay offices
and sub treasuries throughout the
country aie not at all diminished from
the amounts respectively appropriated
for the last year. Some small reductions
are made, however, in salaries of a few
of the subordinate clerks and other em
ployees in these establishments, and the
bill provides, as heretofore stated, for the
discharge of seven hundred aud sixty-five
clerks from the present force employed in
the executive departments at Washing
ton. By a change made by the Confer
ence Committee on the suggestion of
Secretary Morrill the bill now provides
that all these clerks shall be discharged
on the 10th of October instead of Sep
tember 10, October 10 and November 10,
in three installments.
The salaries of members of Congress
and of the President are provided for at
the present rates. The contest in the
committee regarding the United States
“ designated depositories” resulted in the
adoption of a provision for discontinuing
the depositories at Buffalo and Pittsburg
from and after the first day of September
next. The depositories at Charleston,
S. C., and Tucson, Arizona, are retained.
The committee also inserted an appropria
tion of $10,000 to dt fray the expenses of
the survey of the Union and Central Pa
cific Railroads, to be made in pursuance
of the resolution of the House of Repre
sentatives, adopted on the 12th ult.
The bill as passed by the House aggre
gated $13,392,233. This total was in
creased by the Senate (by the restoration
of existing salaries, etc.), to $17,028,756.
The bill as it goes to the President aggre
gates $15,373,960, showing that the Con
ference Committee made very nearly an
equal division of the differences between
the two branches of Congress, the total
being increased by only $163,466, more
than one-half of the total amount of all
items in controversy. There were no less
than nine hundred and*fifty-four contro
verted points, and at least two-thirds of
the amendments by one House or the
other were further amended in the con
ference. The amount of clerical labor on
this bill has therefore been unprece
dented, and it is considered a very re
markable circumstance that on a minute
comparison the work of the clerks of the
two appropriation committees hasjbeen
found without a single error.

SPEAKER KERR’S CONDITION HIGHLY
CRITICAL.
For several years past the project of a
division of the State of California has
been earnestly talked of in a quiet way,
without any formal proposition for divi
sion having been made, until there is
said to be a probability that the next few
years will bring it about. Many promi
nent and substantial citizens cf San
Francisco have removed to Southern
California, in contemplation of the event,
and are doing what they can to briDg it
about. The proposed line of separation
cuts across the State at the Santa Cruz
county boundary, giving fourteen coun
ties to the new State, with thirty thou
sand voters, and a taxable wealth of
$100,000,000. Los Angeles is named for
the capital.
Insincerity of Schubz.—Carl Schurz
is utterly insincere and inconsistent. In
commenting on the address of the Fifth
avenue conference, he said in his organ,
the WestUche Post: “If the reformers
cannot have the Republican Bristow,
they want the Democrat Tilden.” They
didn’t get Bristow, but Schurz, instead of
waiting to see whether they could have
Tilden, hastened to strike a bargain with
Hayes, whom the thieves did not fear in
the least. In order to justify his pro
ceedings he affected, without wait
ing to learn anything in regard
to the position of Governor
Tilden after the St. Louis nomination,
to believe that the latter was not
sound on the currency question. Now
that Governor Tilden’s letter of accept
ance has been published, even the straw
to which Mr. Schurz clung as a last resort
has slipped between his fingers. Read
what the New Yorker Staats Zeitung, the
leading German paper of America, says
on this subject: “We are anxious to learn
how Mr. Schurz will be able to prefer the
foggy phrases of his candidate to the
financial programme of this letter, each
line of which discloses the earnest re
former, who knows exactly what he
wants, and how' to accomplisli what he
wants.” What new evasion will Schurz
adopt on his road to political extinction '1

PLATFORM OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEMO
CRATS.
Charleston, August 17.—The platform of
the South Carolina Democrats commences
as follows: “The Democratic party of
South Carolina, in convention assembled,
announce the following as its platform of
principles:
“We declare our acceptance, in perfect
good faith, of the thirteenth, fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments to the Federal
Constitution. Accepting and standing upon
them, we turn from the settled and final
past to the great liviDg and momentous is
sues of the present and future. We adop
the platform of principles announced
by the National Democratic party,
recently assembled at St. Louis, aud pledge
ourselves to a full and hearty co-operation
in securing the election of its distinguished
nominees, Samuel J. Tilden, of New York,
and T. A. Hendricks, of Indiana, and be
lieve that unchir a wise and just administra
tion of its distinguished reform leader,
assisted by the eminently patriotic aud able
counsellors by whom he will be surrounded
peace and prosperity will again bless our
country, and the dissension, confusion and
mal-administration of the past eight years
will give place to concord, good government
and a thorough restoration of the Union iu
accordance with the declaration of that
platform and the utterance and acts of our
distinguished leader.
“Wo demand a genuine and thorough
form in the State of South Carolina, and
call on all of its citizens, irrespective oi
race, color or previous condition, to rally
with us to its redemption, for it is evident
that substantial and lasting reform is impos
sible within the ranks of the Republican
party of this State. We charge that party
with arraying race against race, creating
disturbances and fomenting difficulties; with
prostituting the elective franchise, tamper
ing with the ballot box aud hold
ing unfair and fraudulent election*
with having accumulated an enormous
debt, mismanaged the finances and injured
the credit of the State ; with levying txor-
bitant taxes and squandering them, tuns
wringing from the toil and livelihood of the
honest and poor man of the State a largo
percentum of his hard earnings, without
giving iu return any compensation therefor,
aud has hopelessly involved iu debt a ma
jority of the counties of the State. Its man
agement of our penal and charitable insti
tutions is a sliamo and disgrace.
“Wo charge its legislation as demoralizing,
partisan and disgraceful, and the venality
and corruption which have characterized
every branch of the government, executive,
legislative and judicial, have no parallel in
the history of nations.”
The platform does not charge this
state of things upon the masses, but upon
their leaders. It proceeds :
‘We, therefore^call upon all of our fellow-
citizens, irrespective of race or past party
affiliation, to join with us in restoring the
good name of their State, aud to again ele
vate it to a place of dignity and character
among the commonwealths of this great
country. We discountenance all disturb
ances of the peace of the State, and denouuoo
all instigators aud promoters thereof, and
earnestly call upon all our fellow-citizens,
irrespective ot party lints, to exercise for
bearance and cultivate good will, and if the
government of the State is committed to
our control we pledge ourselves to protect
the persons, rights aud property of all its
people, aud to speedily bring to summary
justice any who dare violate them.”
The New \ r ork Herald is looking
around for a remedy for the race troubles
in the South, And complains that Northern
men are called carpet-baggers. This is
far, very far, from the truth—so far, in
deed, that we would advise Jim Bennett,
the distinguished editor of the Herald,
to confine himself to polo. He may un
derstand the intricacies of a hot game of
polo, but he knows lea« than nothing
about the Southern question.

Prince Consort was unveiled in Edin

Of the i'20,000,000 sterling received for
customs duties in Great Britain in 1875,
no less than £9,940,000 was collected in
the port of London, and £2,919,000 at
Liverpool; 11,311 foreign vessels arrived
within the port of London last year, and
5,481 vessels arrived at Liverpool. The
importation of tea into London in 1875
reached the unprecedented quantity of
197,000,000 pounds.
M. de Lesseps has communicated to the
Academy of Sciences letters from stations

resembling the rolling of thunder. It

On Saturday the Secretary of the Trea
sury opened the bids for the purchase of
two million one hundred and sixty thou
sand dollars of five per cent. United
States bonds of 1881, for the purpose of
paying another installment of the Genov;
award. The toial of the bids was $2
100 000—nearly ten times the amount re
quired. The bids ranged from 103 37
to 105 05-100 in gold. The market value
of the same bonds in currency on Satur
day was an average of $117. Gold be
ing on Saturday at 111 A, the award made
to Fisk A Hatch at 105 05-100 is equal to
117 13-100 currency. The large amount
of bids, and the high price given by one
house fur the whole of tho bonds offered
indicate the growing strength of the
credit of the Unite d States, and render
it almost certain that a new issue cf
bonds carrying four and a half per cent,
interest would be promptly taken at par.
The first edition of the midsummer

unanimously adopted to the effect that
the killing of the unarmed negroes fol
lowing the collision betw’een the whites
and blacks at Hamburg, in that county,
on the 8th of July, was, if true as alleged,
a most atrocious crime, and should be
punished to the full extent of the law. It
was further resolved that the affair has
“political significance only so far as it
shows the character of the Radical State
government, which, powerful tor fraud
and robbery, to foment race hatred and
provoke race conflicts, is, in maintaining
law and order, protecting the rights and
fostering the interests of the people, im
becile and contemptible.”

HAMPTON’S ADDRESS. *
Columbia, S. C., August 17.—The follow
ing address iu full General Hampton has
just delivered before tho State Conservative
Convention:
Mr. President and Gentlemen—Iu ac
cepting tho honorable post to which you
have called me—that of your standard*
bearer iu the great struggle for reform
which you have begun—I do so with the
most grateful appreciation of your kindness
and the most profound sense of
high duties, and the grave re
sponsibilities pertaining to the position.
In tho better days of our country,
when the surest passports to official station
were found in the ability, the honesly and
tho integrity of her public servants, the
most distinguished son of South Carolina
looked upon the chief magistracy of the
State as the goal of their highest ambition,
and the best reward of their public services
If men, of whom Carolina is justly proud,
held in such deserved estimation the dis
tinction of being thought worthy by their
fellow citizens of the highest office
the gift of the State iu the days of her
prosperity aud peace, how much more
highly should I esteem the honor you have
done me by calling me unanimously to h ad
you in this hour of gloom and peril. You
aro struggling for tho highest stake for
which a people ever contended. You!
are striving to bring back to your prostrate
State the inestimable blessings which can
only forward orderly and regular liberty
under a free aud good government. We be
lieve that these blessings can only be secured
by a complete change in the administration
of our public affairs, national aud State.
Believing this, our sympathies and our in
terests lead us naturally aud inevitably into
alliance with that great party upon whose
banners arc inscribed the watchwords of
Democracy—“reform, good government,
hard money and homo rule.” You have
endorsed and ratified the platform
of tho Democratic party adopted
at St. Louis, and planting yourselves
firmly on that you look forward hopefully
and contidi ntly to a victory in which you
will not only share, but to which you will
have contributed. The platform which you
have adopted here is so catholic iu its spirit,
so strong in its found ition, so broad in its
construction, that every man iu South Caro
lina who honestly desires reform can find
room to stand upon it. With such a platform,
when tho citizens of all parties and all races
can stand, assured of equal rights and lull
protection, you can surely bring back to our
distracted State the great blessings of good
government. For myself, should I bo
elevated to the high position for which you
have nominated me, my sole effort shall
be to restore our State government
to decency, to honesty, to economy
and to integrity. I shall be tho Governor
of tho wbolo people, Knowing no
party, making no vindictive discrimination*;
holding tho scales ol justice with firm ana
impartial hand, seeing as far as iu mo lies
that the laws aro enforced in justice, tem
pered by mercy; protecting all classes alike,
and devoting every effort to the restoration
of prosperity and the re-establish ment of
honest government. Thanking you, gen
tlemen, lor the honor you have conferred
upon me, and invoking tho blessing of God
on your praiseworthy effort to redeem our
State, I here pledge myself to_work with
you iu that sacred cause with all th; zeal,

At the sales of short horns at Paris,
Ky., Saturday, sixty-two cows were sold
for $21,500, and eight bulls for $850.
The stock sold was the property of
Messrs. Warfield, Burgess A Combs.
Total amount realized on sale of cattle

Lieut. Rudio, whose remarkable escape
from the Sioux has been described, is
said to be the same Rudio who, in 1858,
participated with Orsini, Gomez and Peri
in the attempt to kill Napoleon III., by
throwing hand bombshells iu his carriage
in Paris.
It would be well, if the government
persists in the policy of arming the In
dians, to have the job of furnishing the
arms let out to some one of the patriotic
contractors of the late war. Nothing
will sooner decimate the savages than
guns that burst.
Mr. Jennings, writing to the World,
speaks in ridicule of the custom of the I
chief English dailies of requiring the
leading article to be a column and a half

THE RAILROAD MAGNATES IN COUNCIL.
.Saratoga, August 17.—The conference of
the managers of the Southern railroads
concluded their session to-day. The busi
ness committee reported recommondinL
remedial measures for the evils now exist
ing, and threatening to bankrupt the pro
perty committed to their care. Tho first
reform suggested in the existing manage
ment i-» the restoratiou of rates for through
business to prices fair aud just
between companies and patrons, and
adjusted with reference to , uni
formity aud permanence, so far
as may be found practicable. Second. As a
means of avoiding injurious competition,
the committee recommend a division of
territory as between competing lines when
practicable, and when such arrangement
cannot be effected then to divide the busi
ness at competing points. When competing
roads cannot agree, then the disagreement
will bo referred to arbitration. Third.
The abandonment of the payment
of commission to influence ’trade
travel between competing lines.
For the furtherance of these views
t is recommended that tho Southern rail
road and steamship lines form a permanent
association as an organization calculated to
effect much good iu promoting fair manage
ment between the competing lines, and it is
urged on the managers of all roads iu their
section to become members and abide by
the regulations and decisions of said asso
ciation. It was furthermore recommended
to have an annual reunion at this place of
managers and parties interested
the railroads of the country, for
such consultation and action as may be
deemed useful to the interests represented.
The President was requested to give proper
notice of the next rennion about the 15th to
tho 20th August, 1877. The discussion of
tLis report anil some other resolutions in
troduced, elicited much valuable informa
tion regarding several roads represented,
and the members feel that much benefit will
ensue from this consultation.
