J ---—-3 mmm DAILY ENQUIRER-BUN: TUESDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 1, 1874. Ettquivcv, JOHN IV. NARTIV, • • - tdltwr. C O 1.1 * HI M. UA.t TUESDAY SEPTEMBER l. 1874 Read tho nrticle on the “black ele phant" which wo copy from the New York Herald—a paper that keepe remarkably well informed. Hon. John A. Hknderhon baa bean nominated aa the Conaenrative eandnlate for Congrona in the Firat District of Flor ida. There are 22 counties in tho Dis- trict, and the Conaerratives have strong hopea of carrying it. Gen. Eppa Hunton, not “(4eneral" (so inia-titled; K. M. T. Hunter, is the Dem ocratic candidate for Congress in the Eighth District of Virginia. General II unton was a gallant Confederate officer, is now a Congressman, and ia said to bo a man of ability. But we would be de lighted if the Booth oould send a few men of Hon. It. M. T. Hunter’s eminent tal ents to the next Congresw. Still another new comet is announced by Coggia, and has been found by Prof. Kwift, of liochester, N. Y. He says that on the morning of the 2fith inat. it was about Ave degrees north of east of tho seven stars in the constellation Taurus—a point which any one can easily recognize early in the morning. This comet is quite faint, and is moving very slowly ap parently. Prof. Swift is unable to say yet whethor it is approaching or rcccdiugfroin the earth. Colonel Jack Brown denies that ho made tho speech, accepting the Radical nomination for Congress, which the Hum- ter Republican attributed to him. Ho also denies that the Radical Convention which nomiuntel him passed any resolu tion in favor of the Civil Rights bill. But he does not deny that he has accepted the Rudicnl nomination, or that tho party whoso candidate ho is favors tho Civil Rights bill. He does not even say that he is opposed to the bill. There are several other denials in his letter, but they aro merely critical, and do uot affect his posi tion. ft'relffhta to Col a an fen*. The freight report we published re cently, os given by a New York paper, hss cruised much feeling among our mer chants and others into rest od in transpor tation. Mr. Appier, of tho Central Road, assures ua tho report was inaccurate, and gives us the following as the freight schedule to Columbus from Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, which goes into effect to-day * Per loo Iba. First olnsa $1.40 Second class 1.110 Third class 1.00 Fourth class HO Fifth class 75 Sixth class 70 Waroerhee. As wo intimated on Sunday, the terri ble aud bloody “confliot of racea" at Wacoonhee Valley, Ala., has turned otit to bo auother story of “three black crows”— it was only something “ as black as a crow." Nobody was killed, or even hurt much as far as ascertained, aud only ono church was burned. In the present excitable stato of the public mind, such difficulties ore almost oertain to he exaggerated. Iu this “By every tongue It itpread, In every mouth It grew ; 1 who h id all n until it assumed tho proportions of a fierce battle botweeu the races aud a bloody rosult. Wo have received dis patches from sovornl cities—ouo from New York—oskiug for all the particulars of what is regarded as tho Arst real bat tle of the war! Wo are glad that it turns out to have had results ho trifling compared with those at first reported, though we have yet to learu whethor thero wah uot really a dangerous con spiracy against the lives and property of tho whites, frustrated ouly by timely revelations uiada by somo of tho blacks. ot n NEW DR EMM. To-day wo come beforo our readers with a now dress, and we are vain enough to boliovo that the Enquirem-Sun looks as well this morning ns any of its cotompo- raries iu the State. When we assumed ckaTgo of tho ENgmuKii, six toon months ago, tlio circulation was very email, aud the paper was literally ou its last legs. Owing to the hard times our monetary success has boon small, yet wo have strug gled on; and to-day there are but two papers iu the State with a larger circu lation. The boast seemed vain, and somo of our brethren of the proas sneorod at us ns braggarts when one year ago wo announced our ju- teutiou to work on till wo made our paper tho largest in the South. Despite the hard times, wo hnvo quadrupled (he circulation of tho DaUy and addod over two thousand to tho circulation of tho Weekly. This, however, is small work compared with our aspiratious; aud we propose to keep tho original desigu iu view till wo win. To-day our weekly issue is twenty-sevou hundred, uud our daily larger tbau many of our moro preten tious neighbors. Iu the last two weeks we have obtained three hundred uud sixty new subscribers, and they ure still coming in at tho rate of tweuty-Avo a day. This has been achieved by bard, honest work and tho expenditure of time and money. Wo havo tried to make a good newspaper, one fearless for right and independent iu all things, and our efforts have been ap preciated. Never before has Co. lumbus had a journal of which she had so much reason to be proud. Never beforo have our merchauts bad such an opportunity to present their business to the people. What we have done, is bat an index of what we propose doing, if wo bo sustained by those whose inter ests are allied with ours. Columbus is destined to rise, aud having liuked our fortune with hers, we propose to rise with her, and ever to be found in the van of her progress. —The Atlanta Herald does uot believe tbst Gen. Toombs expressed the third term sentiments attributed to him by the psporter of the New York Herald. THE OUTRAGE AT UNION NPRINUM. We have at lastau aggravated case fully and squarely viulative of the Enforcement or Ku K!ui oct. There is no doubt that in ihiH cam u political conspiracy was formed, tbst its ot*)** -t was to deprive cit- zeua of their political rights, that violence and intimidation was naed to this end, and that the conspiracy was successful We refer to the affair at Union Springs, Ala., eh stated by J. T. Rapier, negro Con gressman of Alabama. He says that although every county in the District had sent delegates to Union Springs in favor of his nomination, a crowd of bul lies of Judge Busteed’s wing of the Radi cal party, go.ug from Montgomery for the purpose, took forcible control of the Con vention, demanded of him a writtcu pledge before they would permit his nom ination, and forced him to make it in order to prevent bloodshed, which he says would otherwise have been the result. Now, wc ask, what are the casual and unpremedi tated “Ku-klnx" acts of a few Demo crats of tho South, that have been so severely punished by terms in the Albany penitontiary, compared to this deliber ately planned aud savagely executed out rage upon the political rights of the peoplo of a whole Congressional District? Deni ocrats have been rigorously and relent lessly punished for alleged interferences with the political rights of individual Radicals ; hut in this Union Hprings the right of fifty or sixty thousand per sons to representation in Congress was obstructed for a time, seriously threat ened, and at last only conceded at tho price of a corrupt and slavish pledge. Both law and political privilege wero trampled down by a conspiracy formed for the purpose of extorting by violence and torror what it had failed to secure by the froe expression of the popular will. It is not stated that Judge Busteed waa personally eugaged in this melee. Ilis little pistol, aftor doing its work in tho ladios’ car, might have been resting on its laurels, uncocked, in the hack pocket of his piutaloons. But tho Ku-Klux job was undertaken in his interest and executed by bis partisans. And ho is the executor of the Ku-Klux law in Alabama—tho Judge to whom is entrusted the prevention and punishment of all aggressions upon tho political rights of oilizous! If his retirement from the bench (we had liko to have said which he disgraces, hut we don’t know about that) not a neccmty previous to this freak, it must be so now. But we have no doubt that ho has long since resolved on resig nation ; that ho desired a Congressional nomination to enable him te retire in bet ter order, und failing to get that, he will now havo to retire in great disorder, as well as with the disgust which he pro fesses. But will he be permitted to escape by resignation ? That is now a question which interests the whole country, und we hope iu a few days to receive an indig nant response of no from evory part of it. freenaiT^witiidrawn ! Wo were’considorably surprised oil find ing the following card in the Atlanta Her ald of Saturday . To the Voter* of the Fifth Cong national Diatrict: Gentlemen—Being absent in attend ance upon my public dutiea in Washing ton, and returning only a day or two he fore tho Congressional nomination at Grif fin, 1 was not nwaro of the public senti ment and aspirations of others for tho office, or 1 certainly should not have con- seuted to hecotno a candidate. My pre vious raoo was not induced by any person al ambition. 1 desired simply, by the ad vocacy of couaervative opinions, to quiet tho troubles of the oountry, and contrib ute something towards restoring tho pub lic peaae aud general prosperity. I was prepared at any moment to retire from public life when 1 found myself nim ble to promote efficiently those ob jects, and there has been no part of my whole life so painful as that which has boon marked by difference of opinion and judgiueut ou public question! between myself and my friends ; and no mortal man can doubt my fidelity to what I con ceive to be the best interest of my peoplo. Tho present canvass iu tbis District, it is evident to all, will bo marked by angry uud vituperative controversy, for which I am neither prepared by taste, feeling or profession ; aud, while I feel grateful to my party friends for their unswerviug support ’ I cannot, consistently with my porsoual relations, frioudly associates and private interests, continue in what seenm to be a strife of epithets aud abuse—in which 1 would be obliged to sacrifice too much for the accomplishment of so little good—and have, therefore, upou duo reflection, determined to decline a re- election. I am, respoct fully, J. G. Freeman. Mr. Freeman has beeu playing the game of Cobb of North Carolina, and an electioneering tour through a few coun- tios of the District sufficed to allow him that he would meet the fate of Cobb. He explained bis vote iu favor of taking up tho Civil Rights bill by saying that he wanted it taken up and amended by strik ing out the mixed schools provision. But his constituents looked boyond tbis, nud desired to know why ho wauted tho bill taken up at all unless ho was iu favor of its paasugo; whether ho would havo votod for or against it with mixed schools stricken out, aud whether ho would go back to Washington as its unqualified sup porter or opponent. It will bo soou that these wero embarrassing questions to put to a candidate who had Houston coun ty with its throe thousand negro voters at ouo end of the District, and Decatur, with its 1,500 whites at tho other end. Frecmau could not please both wings of his party by a decided stand eithor for or against, aud both factions helped to push him off the fence. In addition to tbis, Mr. Johnson of Griffin, upon whoso can didacy he had relied to draw off Demo cratic votos from Candler, hod withdrawn from the cauvass and declared his support of Candler. This, probably, was the last and finishing push which Freeman re ceived, and he fell over on the “conser vative" side of the fence. opinion the Radicals will run either Wo. M. Markham of Atlanta or Joel R. Griffin of Houston county—probably the former. Markham, we suppose, is opposed to Civil Rights, and ’Griffin in favor of that bill. The election of Mr. Candler may now be regarded as almoat oertain WHY RENTE ED QUIT IN DlftUUAT. The following is the answer of Judgo Busteed to a letter from Col. I). B. Troy, an able Democrat of Montgomery, pro posing a joint discussion of political questions before the people. Mr. Troy in bis letter had offered guaranty of “absolute protection to every man. black, white or mixed," who might attend their discussions. Busteed, it will be seen, bases bis repudiation of the ac tion of tho Radical Btate Convention of Alabama upon the trick by which a few white office-seekers got control of it—a performance which we have already taken occasion to speak of. Judge Busteed replies to Col. Troy : Montoomebt, Ala., Aug. 28, 1874. Cal. H. S. Troy.—DzkU Hie : I ain in reco:pt of your favor of the 24th instant, asking whether, at some convenient time, I will consent to a public discussion of the issues involved in the approaching election. It would he entirely agreeable to me to discuss the political issues iu the manner you suggest, if I designed taking part in the coining canvass. I do not so intend, however. My physician, your esteemed townsman, Dr. R. F. Michel, advises lue to loavo the South for the present. This I will shortly do. And to nlace it beyond the power of the ignoble or the uucandid to attrib ute my declination to some undeclared motivo, I will add that, even if my health permitted, I would not take Any part iu the contest. The Repub lican Convention recently held in this city, was not, in any true sense, au expo nent of the Republican idea, or a repre sentative of the better clans of the Re publicans of Alabama. It was put to gether precisely as a piece of machinery is put together, to secure a pre-ordained result. As is note apparent, its principal, if not its ouly object, was to secure to certain persons a continuance in offico. It wah dominated aud ran by a i, who, wearing the garb of a United Htates .Senator, is universally recognized as the political luaua nature* of the period. Of the persons composing it some sixty were Federal office-holders, whose liveli- hood depended upon their obedience to the orders of exacting and merciless dem agogues. Discussion was arbitrarily and insolent ly denied to a respectable and intelligent minority, and “tbe previous queston" sprung and carried whenever the wire pullers thought freedom of speech might coufuse their plans. Profanity and blackguardism went nu- controllud by tho Chair, to he applauded to tho echo by a Senatorial huckster, and his hirelings. For the most part, the as semblage was a gathering of tyros in politics, paupers iu intellect, and affiuenta in profligacy. 1 challenge its right to spouk for the Republican party, and feel myself at liberty to aocept or repudiate its doings as my own senso of duty and propriety shall onjoin. For these reasons, und because I utterly reject the doctrine that principle may be sacrificed upon tho altar of expediency, or be overborne by sordid, or postponed for selfish considerations, I shall take no further part in tho proximate political struggle. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Riouaru Buhtked. A Good Business in “Rations."—It is currently reporlod in this section that the rations—“bacon ouly”—which were ap propriated by tho Federal Government for tho benefit of tho “inundated" of the Bigbeo and Warrior rivers, have beeu sold und tho money divided among ihe faith ful. It is said that Billings, recently mur dered and robbed iu Sumter county, was in possession of a considerable amount of this fund. Tho sums of money that he displayed at tho negro mooting on the day preceding his death wero doubtless part of the ratiou money.—Demopolia (Ala.) Aeira. The Widow op Stonewall Jackson.— In a letter to the Augusta ConatitutionaT iat:, from the Warm Springs N. C., the following paragraph occurs: A most nota ble visitor, I will first mention, with a rev erential bow, the widow of the immortal Stonewall Jackson, who reached here, in company with her little daughter, eleven years old, a few days sinco. Modest and uuuffoctod in her mannorn, of a sweet, in telligent, and animated face, she moves through life as though unconscious of her Hhuro in the glory of her husband’s name. Mrs. Jackson is quite young. 1 should say between twonty-fivo and thirty, of me dium height, nud beautiful face. Hhe lives nt Charlotte, in this State. FOR » ALE-ANORENT. **Wtaied to Rent.
