She is fair, tall and graceful, with well cut features, a pensive cast of countenance, and blue, German eyes. Her walk is singularly distingue. —A boy ten years old killed a lynx near Columbus, Wisconsin, recently. Two dogs had the animal at bay, and as he leaped upon one of the dogs the boy shot him, wounding him slightly, after which he walked up and dispatched him with a hatchet. —Governor Seymour, having been pre sented by some of his political friends with a magnificent water-melon, it is suggested by one of his political opponents, that the Re publicans of Maine, not wishing to be be hindhand in graceful testimonials, have just given him an enormous beat. —Ladies’ boots and shoes for winter wear are made with a double row of buttons up the sides.

Grant was lately in Chicago, he was asked by a friend whether Johnson was for him or for Seymour. Grant smiled and replied : “Well, I reckon when he thinks of Seymour he's for me, and when he thinks of me he’s for Seymour.” A broad-shouldered German girl re cently met an exquisite on a street crossing in Cincinnati, where one or the other must turn out into the mud. The exquisite didn’t care to dirty his boots, and, in an insulting manner, ordered the girl aside. Her reply was a blow from the shoulder, which sent the swell clean off his feet into the mud, and she calmly stepped over his prostrate form, pass ing oil dry-shod. —lt is a curious fact iu connection with the Court of Holland, that the King and Queen are never known to be present to gether. The King recently left for Lucerne, and, at the same time, the Queen's arrival from the baths was announced. The phleg matic Dutch maliciously apply the sobriquet of the “sun and the moon” to tho royal pair, inferring that they cannot be seen together. —The proprietor of a hotel at Rondout, N. Y., erected a building adjoining, in which to manufacture gas, abont twelve years ago, and until within a short time it was never doubted that the light of the hotel was thus furnished. Recently, it was discovered that a service pipe extended to the street, and which had been supplying gas at the Company's expense for nobody knows how long. The Company has presented a bill for SO,OOO. —The World, not along ago paid tho fol lowing tribute to Gen. Grant; “As Wash ington was elected and reflected on the strength ot his character and services, with out pledges asked or given, we trust that Gen. Grant will be elected, if elected at all, in the same way and with the same gener ous confidence. Having restored the au thority of the Government, we hope he may add tire highest civil to the highest military fame by restoring long lost cordiality of feeling.” , —An old man, whose sight was defective, and who had to use glasses, was reading a newspaper on the train between Wheeling, Va., and Washington, a few days ago.— When the cars reached the first tunnel, the quick disappearance of the light caused him to look up. Taking off his spectacles and wiping them, he replaced them and again tried to read. Perceiving that all was still dark, he dropped both paper and spectacles, exclaiming, in a loud voice: “My God, I'm blind, I’m blind I” This aroused the passengers, and it was a long time before he could be convinced what was the matter. Qn coming again to the light, he thanked God fervently for his sight. —Queen Isabella, of Spain, weighs 225 pounds. She has become very homely, and when she appears in public with her two eldest daughters, both of whom are very handsome girls, the contrast is most striking. The Queen’s husband is the very embodi ment of stupidity ; he looks, in his gorgeous uniform, like an idiot, wondering why they have dressed hint up so nicely. He is always head over ears in debt, and the Queen herself is likewise mostly short of funds. The better classes of Madrid society look with profound contempt on the Royal family. As a proof of the Queen’s unpopu arity at the capital of Spain, it is said that there is scarcely a girl in Madrid bearing the name Isabella. NntionnlUcpiiblicoii AUHUS'I’A. GIA..

Nelson Tift, it carpet-bagger, who was no knap sacker, is their candidate for Congress. Muskets, shot-guns and pistols are the most effective arguments used by his supporters. Whenever the Republicans make an appointment to address the people, the Democrats read the Riot Act, and then shoot such as do not disperse. By this kind of logic the Demo crats expect to carry the State for Seymour aiftl Blair. Whether the American Con gress will see fit to count Electoral votes cast in this manner remains to be seen. THE LATE RIOT. We publish, this morning, the manly message of Governor Bullock, notifying the Legislature of the lawless conduct of the Democratic citizens ot Mitchell county, at Camilla, on Saturday last. Our special dispatches, received last night, announce that both Houses refused to respond favor ably by adopting a resolution requesting the President of the United States to fur nish a sufficient number of troops to main tain peace and order. We suppose this refusal of the Legislature docs not at all surprise the Governor. It certainly will not excuse him from seeing to it that, the War Department at Washington is promptly advised of all the particulars connected wirlt this atrocious outrage on the rights of Americans. He is the Gov ernor of Georgia, and no amount of legis lative whitewashing by the traitors and nincompoops in the two Houses can ab solve him from the performance of his high duty in the premises. We arc proud to believe that the Governor would not hirk his duty, if he could. We print what is termed ‘both sides of the story.’ under our telegraph head, this morning. We shall ignore, for the purposes of this article, the Republican version of the riot, and rely alone on the authorized and sworn defence of the Ku-Klnx Demo cracy as made and published by the Sheriff and others. Boil the statement down, and we have the admission that Pierce and Murphy, only went to Camilla for the purpose of making speeches in favor of General Grant. This they had a right to do. But some of the negroes were armed; and the Sheriff claims that he would graciously have permitted them to have entered Camilla if they had surrendered their arms to the Democrats. We have no announcement that the Sheriff expected or , desired the Democrats to surrender their arms. On the contrary, we arc at liberty to infer that he expected that party to stand to their guns. The Sheriff claims that he only discharged his duty as the peace officer of the county. If that were so, why did he permit JohnSj who was insanely drunk, to fire a gun in the crowd ? Under any and all circum stances, that man should have been dis armed. Yet the Sheriff permitted him to commence the difficulty. Is Johns a speci men of the Sheriff's 7 Again: If the Sheriff really believed that Pierce and Murphy contcmpla ted mischief, why did he not arrest them ? He could have done this, and if he could not, he would have had the credit of trying. Evidently, the Ku-Klux pre ferred a row, hoping, in the confusion, to dispose of the white “criminals," as P. and M. are considerately termed. Upon the whole, taking the statements of the Demo crats for the truth, which it evidently is not, we cannot see any evidence of the Republicans intending to violate law or create a disturbance. It was simply a political procession attending a mass meet ing. More Repudiated.—The Atlanta Constitution repudiates and refuses to publish the ex aggerated and grossly false account of the Camilla riot telegraphed North, on Mon day night, from Augusta, by the Agent of the Associated Press. We pronounced the whole statement ns maliciously false, in the Republican yesterday. Mr. Walsh should not permit bad men to fool him. Savannah Republican for Sale.—This old and well-established journal—its name and good will, together with all the appur tenances thereto belonging—is advertised to be sold, by the Administrator of the late proprietor, John E. Hayes, on the first Tuesday in October proximo. The property is very valuable, and would no doubt bring a handsome price if the notice of sale can be properly disseminated in so short a period. THE KVKLUX AT WORK. We have information, the most direct and positive, that the Ku-Klux Klan, in Columbia and adjacent counties, nightly prowl around the negro cabins, with their horses and themselves in the most frightful disguise, frightening and coercing the blacks into joining the Democratic Clubs- On Friday night last, these miscreants visited the cabin ot a colored man, living three miles from Wrightsboro, broke the door in, and threatened the life of his wife, to compel her to disclose the wherea bouts of her husband. Their intended victim, having received information of the raid, escaped to the swamps. A few days previous, a black man was caught and whipped until he was glad to consent to become a member of a Seymour and Blair Club. All the blacks refusing to join, soon become the victims of Ku Klttx vengeance. The condition of Columbia county is not exceptional. The same reports come from nearly every county in Middle and South western Georgia. To the eternal disgrace of these bastard sons of chivalry, there is no peace or safety for black or white, ex cept in the poisonous walls of Democratic club rooms. It is useless to charge that these banished negroes arc bad men, and have committed some offence against the community. The laws of Georgia provides, at least for the Democrats, protection against those who defy its authority. Officers are plentiful, and their can be no necessity or justifica tion for midnight murder, taking the law into their own hands and executing its vengeance on the innocent or the guilty.— What is to be the result of all this terror ism ? Granting that the negro is not a good citizen now, will hunting him as an out-law have a tendency to reform him? Is their not great danger of his becoming a confirmed outcast, making a desperate and unrelenting war against fliat society which refuses him protection ? Is it just, wise or safe to continue this lawless means of electioneering for any party ? Wb/'are the voices of a people claiming to be Chris tians hushed in silence at the recital of these fiendish outrages ? lias humanity no voice and religion no heart ? Has conservatism become dumb'? Docs .it stand in mute astonishment at the law lessness which it has instigated ? Why are the voices of Stephens, and Jenkins, and Herschel V. Johnson, and Lociibane, and Alexander, and Wofford, ami Dr. W. 8. Jones, and other decent gentlemen, identified with the Democratic party, not raised to recall these madmen to their duty ? Is it possible that they do not comprehend the fact that Christianity' shudders at the outlawry of the Demo cratic party of Georgia, lashed, as it has been, into blind fury by the diabolical utterances of Cobb, Hill, Toombs. Wright and other mutinous and unprincipled in grates? The people of the United States cannot, if they would, submit to a contin uance of Ku-Klux domination. Therefore, we appeal to the good men ot all parties to raise their voices in behalf of law, order, and the undisturbed right of the people to the enjoyment of all privileges guaranteed by the Constitution and laws. PROOF OF REVOLUTIONARY PURPOSES. Brick Pomeroy’s New York Democrat, may now be truthfully considered the rep resentativc Democratic paper of the coun. try. It represents all that is vital of revo lutionary and reactionary Democracy. Brick knows the sentiment? of his party and the purposes of its candidates, and he candidly proclaims them in the same manly spirit with which those sentiments were first uttered by Blair, Hampton & Co. The New York World having intimated that Blair recanted his Brodhead letter, by accepting the Democratic nomination, Pomeroy shies a brick at him, thus: None but a recreant Republican could have, written that sentence. None but a member of the bread-and -butter brigade would stoop so low and lie so basely, as die tho man who wrote that lino. The World knows, wo know, every member of the Convention knows, that Frank Blair’s letter secured to Frank Blair the nomination, and made him the favorite with some even for the first po sition on the ticket. Stand by,your guns, if you have any, Mr. Worldly wise man, but whatever else you do, don’t hope nor try to involve the party that pays you in any cowardly desertion of its principles or its loaders. Frank Blair’s letter is a pi;rt of tho platform. Thank God, ho is not a marble, that can wobble backward and forward from platform to plat form, like a sick rat for toasted cheese He wroto that letter for two human reasons : 1. Ho know what ho meant, and wished the public to know it, too. 2. lie desired a nomination, and deemed that a good way to get it. Ho was right, it seems, and no man can more heartily despise the journal that insidiously opens the door for a dishonorable retreat than he. It takes a Soutlioruized Yankee, a renegade Radical, a pap-seeking leech, to squirm and lie, and make laces to suit tho emergency, but they never deceive anybody, and, in time, rjeeC-tho contempt they richly merit. Barnum Outwitted.—Lt is now pretty clearly ascertained that the notorious John Allen, the “wickedest man in New York,” has been playing a bold religious fraud on the pious quid nuncs ot New York City. Not only has he ran his slimy fingers ful] length into the sanctimonious peepers of the Christian sensationalists, but he has accom plished what few before him have ever attempted—outwitted the Prince of Hum bugs, Barnum. This will entitle him not alone to the character of being the “wicked est man,” but will herald his name to fame as the biggest humbug in New York. The Sun is responsible for the statement llial Barnum recently made a verbal agreement with John to deliver a series of lectures throughout the Northern cities, in which he was to dwell upon the wickedness of his past life, and detail the particulars of his recent conversion, and also exhibiting young hope ful, Chester, us a specimen of precocious Young America. John, being illiterate) Barnum prepared a charming and highly sensational lecture, which the Wickedest, in due time, committed to memory. After he had become master of his lecture, the Wick, edest humbugs the humbug, by declaring that he can run his own machine, and that he will lecture' on a stated occasion in Bridgeport, Connecticut (Barnum’s home), where Mr. (Barnum may bo nnnibered among the audience by paying fifty cents at he door. Verily, this is an age of rascality. MASONRY. At a Masonic Banquet, given in hono'r of . the inauguration of a new Masonic Tcaiplo, iu St. Louis, Missouri, on the 15th instant, Albert Pike,-Grand Commander of the Su- * 1 preme Council, being called upon, came ( forward and saidi * 1 When she whom we loved ; when she whom wo loved in our youth, placed her lit tle hand in ours, and at the altar, in the < presence of the minister of God, pledged her ■ faith to us, that she would “love, honor and , obey” us all our life, she became our corn famou through the stormy ways of life. Applause.] When out in the great desert, through which now the steam-horse is carry ing the blessings of civilization to tho ex treme West, thirty odd years ago, when I clasped hands with a bosom friend on that prairie, when my life was in his hand, and his life in my hand, and we were there to gether, hand in hand, and heart to heart, depending on one another, almost alone in the world, he was my companion, as Masons should be companions t? one another in the dark days of trouble. * * * » * « He said we come here to-night, and were not coldly received, as some of us feared, perhaps, that we might be; but when in every Northern face we meet a smile of glad welcome and rejoicing as we once more clasp hands together; shame on the man who can carry away from this assemblage one single unholy feeling that should not belong to a pure Masonic heart. [Applause.] God pity the man who will not here lay on the altar of Masonry every feeling of rivalry, every feeling of ambition, every feeling of ill-will in his heart toward, his brother Ma son ; no matter what rite yon believe, at what altar of Free. Masonry you worship, Free Masonry is one faith, one great religion, one great common altar, around which all men of nil tongues and all languages can assemble ; in which there can be no rivalry, except a noble emulation of rites, orders and degrees, which can best work and best agree. [Applause.) My brethren, how can I return you my thanks ? Shall I return them in my own name, because you have so highly honored me as to call upon me again and again to address you ? No. I know tho compliment was not paid to me alone. I know it was but an expression of the Masonic love and regard and affection that you of tho North ern States feel toward the brethren who you think erred in the last late civil war, but toward whom you maintained through that war those feelings of charity, Masonic kindness,-love and affection tlyit become Masons to entertain toward one another in the convulsions of civil war. Shall I thank you in the name of my State ? Shall I thank you in the name of Tennessee ? Shall I thank you in the name of the whole South ? No thanks that the South could return to you, if the South had authorized me to speak on behalf of tho whole body of Masons in tho South, with my single tongue, could adequately express the thanks you deserve for the kindness you have shown on this occasion. . I return ycu the thanks of uni versal humanity. I return to you, and this nation ought to return to you, thanks for teaching them the great - lesson, that breth ren of a common country, with the same blood flowing in their veins, may fight a desperate and bloody war for years ; may expose their lives breast to breast, in sup porting that which they believed to be right —a portion supporting the rights of States as they understood them, and the other por tion supporting the glorious old flag—the stars and stripes [applause] ; that through it all, thank God, Masonry has furnished an example of charity and toleration, that shall teach the men of the South to respect the men of the North for fighting for what they believed to be right, and shall also teach the men of the North to respect the men of the South for fighting for what they be lieved to bo right in regard to their State. [Applause.] At any rate, whether they have that charity or not—whether they believe they were honest or not —they shall at least, have charity to forgiye their brother, though he offend against them ninety and nine times. [Applause. | I thank God, my brethren, that tho news of this great assemblage will go over the whole world; that it will not, as it ought, be confined here in our own coun try, but that the cry shall go over tho whole world to the honor of Masonry, that after a long and bloody and devastating civil war— when having come away fresh from our ruined homes and impoverished communi-, ties among a people who were triumphant over us, we have come here and trusted to yonr magnanimity, because it is the loser that can afford to be magnanimous, more than the winner. [Applause.) And that, we have been met with open arms, with no , coldness or reservation, as Masons ought to meet, and' if there was a latent, lurking, hidden ill-feeling, in tho bosoms of any of us, that right here, now, wo should all take the oath, and I propose to you to take it that wo swear that we will bury all feelings hereunder the altar of Masonry; that we here sacrifice upon the altar of Masonry all feelings of ill-will, jealousy, and rivalry, and ambition, within Masonry and without [ap pl use) ; and, moreover, that we will here after, by our lives, conversations or teach ings, make Masonry a great power in this world ; that we will show mankind that wc have-intellect, learning, power and might to make Masonry a great powersjor tho benefit of the human race; and Masonry will never be true to her mission till wc all join hands— heart to heart and hand to hand—around the altar of Masonry, with a determination that Mnaonry shall become, at some time, worthy of her pretensions; no longer a pretender to that which is good, but that she shall be au apostle of peace, good will, and charity, and toleration. [Applause.] Take it if you Dake.—Wc are author ize d to bet SSOO, in sums of SIOO or up wards, that General Grant will be elected in November Back your judgment gentle men. Wc mean business. That Little S2OO. —We still have that little S2OO to bet on Grant. No takers. Come up to the lick-log, Democrats, salt or no salt. - ■♦♦♦■ -- The State of New York has gone'for the Republican party in three of the last Presidential elections. In 1856 General Fremount received in this State more than 80,000 votes over Buchanan, and 151,000 over Fillmore, and consequently carried the State. In 1860, the majority in this State for Mr. Lincoln, on his first term, over all other candidates, was 50,000. In 1564, Mr. .Lincoln’s majority for his second term, over McClellan, was about 7.000. The Empire State ought now to go for Gen. Grant by at least as large a majority as Mr. Lincoln obtained on bis first term. —A’. K Times. —Beverly Clark, charged with being en gaged with ten others in a conspiracy to de fraud the Government in the post-office de partment, has been committed for trial in the eastern district of Michigan. —Dr. L. A Biancini, an Italian honi<e pathlc physician of New Orleans, 65 years olds committed suicide a few days ago at the grave of his wife, who died recently. Sorrow over her death was the cause of his action. —M.
