We would call the special attention of

pondent “ Reporter,” of the shameful treat
ment to which Colonel Akerman—one of
the Grint and Colfax Electors for the
State at large—was subjected, at lAncoln
ton, on the Gth instant. When it is re
membered that Colonel Akerman is an old
ro-ident of Georgia—a gentleman of educa
tion and refinement, against whom no ob
jection can bo urged, except on tfie score of
politics— an honest and virtuous man—his
treatment at the hands of the Lincolnites
will be branded by all gopd citizeps, of all
parties, as Ihe most disgraceful occurrence
of the present unfriendly canvass. It is
but a practical illustration of the teachings
of Messrs. Hill, Toombs and others; and
they are the men whom the People, in their
calmer hours, will hold responsible.

The game was made between eleven
picked from the two cricket clubs of this

cluding the Hon. Edward Thornton, the
British Minister. The Picked Eleven
scored 90 in the first inning, when the
Legation took the bat aud scored 73.
The Picked Eleven next scored 42, and
wore followed by the Legation, which scored
36, with six wickets to go down, when dark
ness put an end to the game,, which was
won l»y the Washington Chib.
Mr. Thornton was highly complimentel

Ten TuousANtt Dollars.—Admission to

New York Stock Exchange, on Friday, de
cided, by tin almost unanimous vote, to
advance the initiation fee of new members
to ten thousand dollars, aud to invest
present members with a qualified property
interest in their scats. The Open Board of
Brokers will probably adopt similar
measures. This action will tend to lessen
the number of new applications for mem

of the movement.

From the Norwich (Conn.) Bulletin.
MORTIFIED.
• Mr. B. 11. Hill, of Georgia, who came to
New York, as was reported, for the purpose
of taking the stump for Seymour and Blair,
but was dissuaded front it by the more pru
dent of the Democracy, has been expressing
his disappointment in a letter to the New
York Times. He says:
“1 shall return homo a mortified, if not a
wiser man. Mortified only because I find in
the North a bitter, systematic, adroit, and
persistent misrepresentation of the temper,
desires and views of the Southern whites,
far exceeding my anticipations.”
It is certainly gratifying intelligence that
Mr. Hill is “mortified,” because if anybody
needed that discipline he is the man. If the
temper of the Southern people has been
‘‘misrepresented,’ as he claims it has, he
himself must bear a great share of the blame.
Soon after the nomination of Seymour and
Blair he made one of the most violent and
menacing speeches against Southern white
Republicans that has appeared during the
canvass. Probably no speech delivered in
Georgia did more to foment hatred against
Republicans than the words of this hypo
crite, who now whimpers that he has been
“misrepresented,” and is now going home
“mortified," and, let us hope, wiser.
But while Mr. Hill complains that be has
been “misrepresented,” let us bring him to
the bull-ring on this very point. It was but
a few days ago that he wrote a letter to the
Tribune, in which he denounced Mr. Pierce,
the Republican candidate for Congress, who
was wounded by the Democratic butchers at
Camilla, as the “most emphatic sort of a
carpet-bagger.” What Mr. Hill means by
this, he explained in the speech to which we
have referred. In that speech he called the
earpet-baggers “miserable swarms of poiiti
ctl aceideney, hatched in the stench of revo
lutionary corruption," This is the laaguaee
in which Mr. Hill described such men as
young Pierce. But so outrntjeous was the
“misrepresentation ’ that Gov. Bramlett?, of
Kentucky, au eminent Democrat, felt con
strained to correct Mr. Hill. This he has
done in a letter, in which he says that Mr.
Pierce has been “traduced,” and that “no
young man in Kentucky had a better charac
ter” than he.
Before Mr. Hill .says anything further
about being “misrepresented,” he Ind better
keep quit I for a lime in Georgia, and let his
“mollification” soak in.

Almost alone among the Southern pa

boldly and decidedly respecting the South
ern elections. It says: “We conjecture
that there will be now tto very vigorous
fight over the Presidential election. The

immense means they had concentrated to
influence the opinions and votes ot men.
having been exerted upon the struggle of
Tuesday, we imagine that the defeated
party will hardly continue the contest. It
is clearly without hope.”

Proclamation of Gov, Scott-
Charleston, October 29.—Gov. Scott
has issued the following proclamation :
To the Citizens of South Carolina ;
Fellow Citizens : The numerous oom
plaints mode to this Department of murders
and outrages committed by wicked and in
considerate persons, excited by intense
party feeling, made it my duty to issue the
late proclamation, calling on all good and
true men, without respect to political predi
lections, to unite in a determination to dis
countenance and denounce lawlessness and
violence; and, in an effort to recover,and
maintain the good name that has hereto
fore been the heritage and the pride of our
beloved State, it is now my pleasing duty
to congratulate you upon the beneficial
results that have ensued from the admirable
and well-timed address of General Hamp
ton and the Executive Committee of the
Democratic party. In honest aud impressive
tones they have called upon the people to
support the laws, to preserve the peace, and
to denounce those crimes which have so re
cently been committed in some portions of
our State. These patriotic counsels cannot
fail to have a wide and wholesome influ
ence in moderating the vehemence of feeling
of those to whom they are authoritatively
addressed, while they have quieted the ap
prehensions and conciliated the respect and
good will of their political opponents. This
>s certainly u just cause of congratulation to
every well wisher of the State, and it gives
me unfeigned pleasure to acknowledge it.
and to earliest!-.- invoke the Ci Operation of
every member of the Republican natty
of South Carolina in reciprocating, to
the fullest extent, a pacific policy, so
admirably inculcated by the Democratic
leaders. Let acrimonious nnd irritating
discussions be avail 'd, and appeals bo made
to the intelligence and reason, and not to the
fears or passions of the community. Differ
as we may in political sentiments, it is the
dictate alike of wisdom and patriotism for
all to appeal to nnd confide in the efficiency
of peaceful remedies for political evils, actual
or supposed. Let bear and forbear be our
maxim, and so shall the peace, prosperity
and honor of our beloved State be maintained
and perpetuated, and her time-honored es
cutcheon will be preserved unsullied and
undimiiied in all its original purity and
lustre. (Signed)
