A friend at Sparta has kindly furnished us with the official vote of Hhncock County, 011 Tuesday last, as follows; Republican Electors, 85; Democratic Electors, 958; total 1,043. ♦ - ——— The Nntaiinah Riot. The Republican, of yesterday morning reports the death of Police Officer Samuel Bexson, on the day before, from “a gunshot wound inflicted by some person unknown to the jury, during a riot between the Police and colored people, at the Court House,” in that city, on the 3d of November, 1868. The same paper stales that Police Officer R. E. lluun, who was wounded at the same time, was thought to bo in a dying condition on Wednesday night. —• -a L. N. Circuit Court. The November Term of the U. S. Circuit Court for the Southern District of Georgia was opened, in Savannah, yesterday —Hon. John Erskine, presiding. We learn from the Republican that there are two hundred and sixty-one eases on the appearance calen dar, two hundred and seventy-seven cases on the trial calendar, and forty-eight cases on the equity docket, besides a number of cases referred or appealed from the District Court. • • Savings* Bank. Now, that the election i • over, let the colored citizens turn their attention to the interest! of th ir families. We could not do better than to advise them to save up tl.cir earnings and deposit them where they will be safe and draw interest—in the Na. tional Freedman’s Savings and Trust Com pany. In a few days, interest will be paid on sums that have been on deposit four mouths All people who deposit five dollars, or over, on or before the 16th of November, will begin to draw.interest from the first of November. Official Vole of Richmond County. For the purposes of future reference, we give the following official vote of Richmond county, on Tuesday last, for Presidential Electors, viz. : REPUBLICAN TICKET. FOR THE STATE AT LARGE. Henry P. Farrow 3,128 Amos T. Akerman 3,129 FOR THE DISTRICTS. F. M. Smith 3,127 •lohn Murphy 3,128 E. I. Higbee 3,129 Win. H. Whitehead... 3,129 •I. E. Bryant 3,096 8. C.

Waddell ? 2,753 It will be seen that, while the Democrats voted as a unit, the Republicans were not quite as unanimous—J. E. Bryant, of this city, running some thirty-three votes behind Colonel Akerman and others. - To Business .Hen. The Weekly National Rei’Uiilican will liave an extensive circulation over the ad jacent counties—thus affording an excellent opportunity to Advertisers to extend their Business notices. Beautiful Fancy Good*, In great variety, at 190 Broad street. —Never borrow a newspaper if you are able to pay for it yourself. Have You Registered? What Bepublicfh cannot answer this question in the aflirinntive7 It you’eaimot, register at once. Don’t prQcnwlinaH. Prp crastiuation is the’ thief of time. Yoifmay bo sick to-morrow, or next week. Without a certificate of registration, you can neither vote for Mayor or member of Council. You arc all vitally interested in the municipal election. A lot of hungry .Democratic ex 5 officials ore now greedily waiting to get hold of the city, so that they can crush every Republican in the city, or who has ever expressed any sympathy for our party. They may wheedle and talk smooth as oil, but that is their ultimate object. You have- the power to defeat and destroy thoir mischievous schemes; but to do that, you must register. Remember, that if you have resided in the State one year and in the city for six months, you are a voter. You know whether or not Augusta is your home. You may have been temporarily away. There are few persons who have not been temporarily absent from the city during the past year, under sonic pretext or another. We do not desire any Republican to attempt to register; who does not feel himself fully entitled to register under the law. But if you feel yourself entitled to vote, the first step necessary is, to register. ———- ■ -so* - - Governor Brown’s Defem e-.—Ex-Gov. Brown, now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State, is out in a lengthy defence against charges preferred against him by a certain Mr. Martin, of Mississippi. We have not referred to these charges in our paper, nor do we now publish Governor Brown’s defence, because we never be- I lieved such wartare to be fair and legiti mate, nor do we believe such matter to be suitable for newspaper reading, nor have we ever believed Gov- Brown to be guilty. Politically, we differ with him in toto, but it docs not follow, that we should believe him guilty of every charge trumped up for political effect. The whole affair turns upon the genuine ness of certain letters, which arc alleged to be in Brown’s handwriting- lie has ap pended to his communication' certificates from fourteen gentlemen of the highest standing in Atlanta—among whom we recognize the names of several acquaint ances, Judge Whitaker, Col. J. FT. Steele, Rev. W. 11. Hunt, Col Logan E. Bleckley and Dr. W. T. Brantley—all of whom certify that they are satisfied the letters arc imitations and forgeries.— Athens Watch man. - - —» ■—» • »■ - - Secretary Seward as a Beau.--A Washington letter to the Cleveland Leaden gives the following gossip: “Miss Oljve Risley, the daughter of an officer of the Treasury, a large and handsome lady of dark hair and stately carriage, has been amused and flattered by the gossip current that Mr. Seward is in love with her. The lady is under thirty, the Secretary sixty seven, having been born in lhe year 1801. The whole story rests upon the fact that Mr. Seward sent a favorite physician to her mother, recently deceased, and now comforts the lady by giving her airing in his ear riage. Among the diplomatists of the Old World these marriages of power on the one side and beauty on the other, are quite com mon. Count Bodisco, white as Russian snow, married a tripping schoolgirl in Georgetown. Mr. Seward is hale and lively as a boy. At his receptions he will stand, three hours at the foot of the room never showing fatigue. To make a conquest of 1 handsome woman would be the crowning feat of his diplomacy, while she could boast that while he could outlive the knife of a gigantic assassin ho yielded up his heart to her.” Daniel Webster’s Toothbrush. Dar nel Webster.” remarked old Col. Gumpy, as be trimmed a quid of nigger-head and fas tened it securely between two decayed teeth side of liis mouth, '* Darnel Webster was a gret man. There wasn't nothin moan about him. I’ve heard him talk, but ’twasn’t his talk so much as his ginerosity that tuck me. He had a kind of careless way like, that kept him from getlin’ rich. He never seemed to think what things cost. I was cornin’ up the Hudson river along with him once, and in the mornin’ Darnel Webster and me was washin' bur faces and slickin' our ha’r in the cabin, aud lie took out a toothbrush and brushed his teeth. I didst i see no other toothbrush around, so I borrowed his’n. And after I used it I handed it back to him, and what do you think ? Why, Darnel Web ster just slung that toMbbrugh right.intar the river. And I spose next 'lay he went and bought him a new one. That's nil he cared about money 1 There ain’t no such j men as Darnel Webster livin' now,” con- ; eluded the. Colonel meditatively, aS he squirted a stream of tobacco juice into the fire-place at the other end of lhe room. Marrying of ths Nobility.—A German correspondent of the I' reischuetc says : “What a pity that the beautiful Danish princesses should be married to such men as the Prince of Wales and the Grand Duke hereditary of Russia. The former an incorrigible rake, and the latter a scrofulous youth. There are no finer, nicer, and better educated young ladies in Europe than the daughters of King Christian IX. Look at the way in which young Frederica of Wales is pining away in Loudon. Six years ago she was the embodiment of health aud beauty, aud now she is but a wreck of her former self, and not yet twenty-live! And Hint sw- et, bright girl, Dagmar, who was admired by everybody who saw her in Copenhagen, is reported to be consumptive, a prey to the miserable climate of St. Petersburg, and perhaps also to disappointed hopes ol happi ness. The good mother ot these girls is said to be profoundly melancholy, aud well she may be when she looks upon the fate that has befallen her lovely daughters, linked as they are to men to whom, if they were ol private extraction, no honor able man would intrust his daughter.” The, Way to Bankruptcy.—The Pall Mall Gazelle says: “To young gentlemen beginning life, the story of Lord Albert Clifton, as revealed in the Court of Bank ruptcy, may be recommended as an exhibi tion ot those things which they ought most to avoid. Lord Albert has devoted his life thus far to the work of Showing how soon a foolish young man may bfing himself to ruin. The bankrupt told the Court that lie ‘had done nothing for years beyond getting into debt.’ He had £9,000 a year when his father died, and £IO,OOO under the marriage settlement. He has now succeeded in rc ducing bis income to £4OO a year; he has spent the £IO,OOO, and he owes £30,000 besides. The present age of this intelligent scion of a noble house is twenty three. He has ‘seen life’ —so much so that he lately passed five weeks in intimate observation ot existence in Whitecross street. How proud bis family must be of this excellent young mail I” A Fat Baby.—A fat baby arrived here on the commutation train this morning, which attracted the attention of all at the depot’. The child is accompanied by its parents, and weighs from one hundred and seventy to two hundred pound*. It is a boy, aged five years, and is about three feet 1:1 height, and fully two feet in diameter, with a sirtnll head and child-like face, aud walks with some difficulty—bis legs, although very large, having apparently too much to carry. | WasMnpton Etar. > |BY_-3ELEGRAPH,O The Savannah Troubln. t Savannah, November s.—The. negroes > disbanded last night, but are again assern r bling at Telefair’s plantation. They nfo said to have United Slates muskets, evi- 1 dently newly furnished. The excitement in I the city continues. The citiiens are on the . alert for any alarm. Hopes are entertained i that no collision will occur, and every pre caution is taken ly the civil and military authorities to prevent any. Young Law, killed by negroes lhe night of the election, was buried to-day. There was 11 very large funeral. Another I’olicemai died this evening, who was shot at the riot. Flection Returns. Washington, November 5. —Present cal culations give the Democrats seventy-five members of Congress—a gain of twenty seven. Californians here have no doubt that the State is Democratic. The Democrats have lost five, and gained three Federal Senators. Dispatches from the Western States show nothing interesting beyond a general falling off from the Republican majorities, a* first . reported. Liberal calculation gives Seymour ninety three electoral votes. Washington, November 5, p. m.—Mis souri gives Grant about twelve thousand. New Orleans, November s.—Returns from a few country parishes have been re-’ ceived. In some the disparity in the vote was as great as in this city. St. James, Si. Charles, St. John. Coueoulia West B.itou I’oiv.ie, West Feliciana nnd Ab'-'-ville par ishes, and Algiers op; 054, ; New Orleans, . give Republican majorities. Claiborne parish, with onl thirteen hun dred white voles on the old registry gives a Democratic n njorily of 2 900. St. Helena parish, with sorm disparity in the registry, gives over ouc thousand Demo cratic majority. The corrected Democratic majority in this city is 23,600. The entire Congressional delegation is elected. The Democratic majority in the State will not be far from 30,000. Charleston, November 5. —The returns from this State come 111 slowly. Anderson,' Greenville, .ipartanburg, Lexington, Oconee and Pickens counties give large Democratic majorities. In Abbeville, the contest is close aqd result doubtful. Columbia gives 258 Republican majority. From the seaboard coiitnteS, which form the Republican strong hold, returns come in very Slowly, and it is im possible to state lhe general result in the State with certainty, but. the indications are that the Republicans have carried it by a reduced majority. The Democrats claim to have elected two Congressmen. Wilmington, November 5.-—Returns thus far show Democratic gains in nearly all the counties, but not generally throughout the State. Gains arc sufficient to overcome the former Republican majority of twenty thou sand. Shober. a conservative is certainly elected to Cougiess from the sixth District. Partial returns from the seventh District indicate the election of Durham, a conserva tive. Montgomery, November s.—No official returns have yet been received of lire elec tion in this Slate. The registration and voting in the negro counties was'unusually full, while the white connties, in many inst-nees, had no opportunity of registering. The Legislature is still without a quorum. San Francisco, November 3.—The Re" publicans claim-Californi 1 by 1,000 to 1,500. Axtell, Democrat, is Vlccte.l to Congress. Nevada lias gone Republican by 1,000, and sends Fitch, Republican, to Congress. Both parties claim Oregon. Trenton, N. J., November 5. -Seymour’s majority is about 2,000. Tire delegation number three DdnucraLi and two Republicans. The Democratic joriiy 011 joint ballot is six. Hartford, November 5. —Grant’s major ity, 31,041. Total vote of the Slate, 99,000.

Meade telegraphs to Grant that the elec tion Was quiet throughout his Department, except at Augusta, whe re the military sup pressed the disturbance, and at.

The debt statement appears to-morrow, and it is stated of four millions- The Secretary of War has departed for West Point, and will be absent a week. The Freedmen’s Bureau, except regard ing education, bas ceased in this District Foreign Summary. Washington, Novembers. —It is stated that Dulce carries instructions for elec tions. The Liberalization of the Cuban Admin istration is eatublishing the liberty of the Press, making a division of the island into provinces, and the suppression of unpopular institutions. / The paper Gaidais asserts that the mem bers of tire Provisional Government unani niously oppose Montpensier.'ssuccession.
