Why could it not hftvo been done at Montgomery ? Kioistiiaxiom for tho election ia pro graming in New Orloana. In the 11th Ward, whioh ia conaidcred the moat doubt ful, two ropreaeutativos of the People’* Party went to Kellogg’* ltegiatrara and requeated to be allowed to tally the reg- latration, but they were refused.

It ia aaid that Judge Littleberry Strange ia a candidate for re-election a» Circuit Judge in Alabama. Ho ia ati “independ ent" Radical thin time, having been de feated for the nomination by M. L. Pat- teraon, Esq. Tho Democratic candidate is J. E. Cobb, Esq., of Macon. THK New York Herald woll aaya that the “ ‘war of racea’ in the South ia for future use .in Congress. Every Radical who in beaten for office will conical the aeat of the man elected and then prodneo the ‘war of race*' in evidonoo that there waa not a fair election." The official document* iu the caae ahow that Keila waa arrested at Eufanla for an abuae of the vrry jMjouliar Alabama law allowiug tho rcleaaeof criminals “on tkeir own recognizance." Ho at retched the law to the extent of releasing negroes arrested for fe!ony; aud ono of them indicted for an aasault with intent to murder, who vu thus released by hitu, osoapod, leav ing aiiuply hia own worthleaa bond. It for this abuso of hia power* that Keila waa arrested, after resisting arrest with foroe and arm*. It is hardly necessary to arid that all criminals in the State, arreated for felonies and released on their own recog* nixmoe, would escupo in a similar man ner. of it, white loaders, and will uo doubt | inflame the passion, deprive the party j very greatly, Moording to the neerness of lose hundred, of whiU vote, b, White- of the control of hi. judgment, emf ren- * - ‘ - • . , . . lL n . der him for the time being incapable of leys support of the C.vil Bights bill. euroiaiaR proper of his own per- \V tl. 4 L Seward, of Thomas—tbo ablest j MQft | *afety, or for that of hia property, Ib puMican in the Diatriot—against him, i must be prepared for the conaeqnencea W hi e ey will have np-bill work in the j that must follow." That ia surely laying canvasa and at the p Ua. We repeat the string hope that Georgia will do as well aa North Carolina in her Congressional election*. It appears that Brigham Youug ia about to turn to his own advantage the argu ment* used against polygamy. One of his wives, Mra. Ann Eliza Young, ia suing him for divorcouud uliuiony, and Brigham coolly aota up the plea that “a celestial or plural marriage is only au ordinance of the Moriuan Church, and outside of the palo of law, and legally be has only ouewife." Of course, if ho was never legally married to Ann Elizs, alio has no foundation in law for her auit for divorce aud alimony. Brigham'a law aeetua to be good, if the common law or the laws of the United States are superior to the Mor mon Territorial laws ; aud it would seem that he cauuot be reached by the pro ceedings now ponding. THE CONDITIO* OF SOUTH € A DO MNA. Unquestionably the moet impudent and audacions attempt to procure renewed Federal intervention in the affairs of the Booth, ia that made from Booth Carolina. We are informed by telegraph that Sena tor Patterson has gone to Washington on this mission ; that he has found the At torney General, and with him would go on to Long Branch to see the President; also, that they bad arranged to be followed by other delegations from Booth Carolina, all !>ent on the tame object. They repre sent the white# aa organising rifle compa nies (whioh the negroes have been doing for some time without any interference), and fear that they will be too strong for the Radical*. Patterson, we are told, “frankly admitted that if the Federal sol dier* are there the Republicans can carry the State; but to preserve order, he wants them scattered throughout the Btete. They are at praaent at Columbia, York and Newberry, where there ia no disturbance." This anxiety about the Republicans carrying the State ia un doubtedly the whole secret of the demand for troop*. The negroes are likely to prove “refractory" there aa elsewhere. If Mono* is nominated for re-election, the better and mort intelligent portion of them will not support him; aud, on the other baod, if (as Patterson affects to believe will be the case) aome one else la nominated, the worse portion of the negroes will not sup port thia nominee—Moaes himself may refuse to do so. But with Federal troops scattered all over the State, it will be an easy matter to impress the negroes with what is expected from them at Washing ton and bring them book into the party tracoa. It is to operate on the blaoka aa much aa tho wliitea that the troops are wanted. Tho idea that Federal troops are needed Houth Carolina to sustain tho Radical Htato Government there, or to prevent the whites from committing aggresaiona on the blaoka, is aimply ridiculoua. The Rad ical have iu their own handa the entire machinery of the State Government and that of noarly all the district* or counties. They have long had negro volunteer companies all over the State, sup plied with artua distributed by the State, while the whites have no organ ization and no arms exoept a few shot guns or riflea. The negroes outnumber the whitee about 120,000 in the State, and in the laat Presidential election the Radicals had a majority of 50,000 votes. If, with this great preponderance of num bers, priority of organization, support by Btate authority, and excess of arms, the white Radioala aud negroea cannot aua tain themselves without Federal military aid, the fact ia a proof of inferiority far surpassing anything that Democrats have ever charged upon them. There must be something moat offensively “rotten where a party with all these advantages of authority, organ iaation and numbers oannot sustain itself in power. But tbs truth ia, it fears the loss of one of theso elements of strength. It ia secure until after the election iu its authority and its organisation, but it oan not just now count on its numbers. It wants the Federal military to overawe the people, and that ia the whole secret of the clamor for troops. If Gen. Grant ad heres to his new policy, recently adopted in the cases of Arkansas and Texas—and it is to be hoped that he will—Jack Pat* tersou will go baok from Long Branoh aa palpably “struck" as “Billy" was, and uot half so much in doubt as to who “atruok" him. downbroud doctrine, and if it wore fully enforced thein would come a bad time for the saloon keeper*. We imagine it will be impossible, even in lllinoi*, to get juries aa obedient a* the one in the above case, aa the verdir-t waa one of two thou sand dollar* damage*. the reiationahip The persona wb-> expe- rience this misfortune have the faculties of voice and hearing, but are afflicted by the deprival of their children of these ad vantages. On the other hand, it is a re markable thing aa connected with the marriage* of persona who are deaf und dumb, but who are Grangers in blood, that their children are generally able to apeak and hear. Tbe t’asvMa In tieorgla. The CongroHHional canvas* ha* opened most auHpicioutdy for the Democrats, giv ing rosHon* for tho hopo that uot more than one Radical (if one) can be elected to Congress. Wo regard Freeman’s with drawal, iu tho Fifth District, aa tho result of troubles which overy Radical candi date for Cougres* will have to encounter. Freeiuuii tried hard to avoid committing bimsolf either for or ngsiust tho Civil Right* bill, und such trimming waa uot sati*fHCtory to either the Democrats or the Radicals. On tho othor haud, if be had taken a decided position eitlior for or against, he would have driven many Re publican* from hi* mipport. In thia di lemma he gave way for a now candidate, yet to be brought forward. Ho will no doubt keep clear of the fence by getting on on© Bide or the other, hut as soon as be doe* so there will bo Republican de sertion, and be will find himself leading a divided party to certain defeat. Iu the First District there are two Radi cal candidates, and we see no indication that either of them will withdraw. Bry ant is supported by the white office-hold ers iu Bavannab, who control a majority of the negroes of Chatham couuty, but outside of Chatham Wimberly is the fa vorite with the nogro voter*. Ilia frieud* claim that he was cheated out of the nom ination, aud they and he are stubborn in their purpoao not to submit to the impo sition of Bryant upon the party by the Chatham office-holders. This District was very close at tho last election, and Colonel Rawls, Democrat, was so dearly elected that even a number of Radicals of the Hou*e voted to keep him in the seat, but party feeling was too strong for justioe to be done. The Dem ocrats ought to carry the District this yasr by a majority that cannot ba dis puted. In tbs Seoond, the only other Distriot carried by the Radicals at tha last elao- $m, tha BopnbUM pnrty has lost amt Polities Is Tanmaasaa ssd Hosso- etaosetta. The Washington correspondent of tbe Baltimore Nun gives some interesting in formation concerning political affairs in Teunesse# and Massachusetts. The writer say*: “Iu Tennessee the differences ex isting between the Johnson and anti- Johnson wing* of the Demooraoy appoar to havo been harmoniously settlod. The next Legislature will be largely Demo cratic, and it ia looked upon as almost cortaiu that ex-1'resident Andrew John son will be eleoted to the seAt in tbe Sen ate now filled by hia most bitter enemy, Parson Brownlow. In Massachusetts local dimension* havo very much divided tbe Radical party. Prominent among the causes of woakueaa are the feuds growiug out of the Butler fight and tha liquor question. The seventy thousand Radical majority of Massachusetts a few years ago made the contingency of a Democratic success appear impossible. But advioea now iudioate that the party is so much de moralized through the causes mentioned above, and further through the refusal of so many of its old members to run again for Congress, that the Democrats have groat hopes of electing their Governor aud two or three members of Oongres*, and perhaps even seouring a Democratic Senator to fill the seat of Mr. Sumner. Te tha Waters of Uttar ©gee C'oumtjr. The citizens of the 021st Distriot, feel ing that heretofore they have in every election contest stood squarely up to the Democratic party without scrambling for office, and iu every election since the war have ardently supported the nominees of the party, all of whom have been selected from other part* of the county aa a gene ral rule, respectfully anggeat the name of Mb. Davis A. Andrew*, of said District, a suitable and proper person aa a candi date for Tax Collector of said county it the ensuing election, subject to the nomi nating convention to be held for connty officers. The integrity and capacity of Mr. An drews, aa a man and citizen, ia too well known for comment; all who know him will bave no fears of intrusting to him the duties of the office, and hone will have cause to regret casting their votes for him, should he be elected. His name as a can didate for said position ia therefore earn estly and respectfully proposed by many voters and citizen*, both of hia District and the connty at Urge. “Shingle Hill. Thk Democrats and Conservatives of Chambers county, Ala., have made tbe following nomination*: For ItoprcHcntative* in the Lower Branoh of the General Assembly, W. T Harris and Joseph Stephens; for Probate Judge, Peter M. Rowland; for Clerk of Circuit Court, O. H. Burnett; for Sheriff, Jack Barrow; for Tax Collector, Julius Weaver; for Tax Assessor, Dr. H. B. Abernathy; for Treasurer, James E. Scar borough; for County CounuiaHioners, J. W. Grady, J. H. Foreman, D. C. Bburtze, and R. C. Germany. There ia no outright quarrel between Proaident Grant and the Republican par ty, but there ia an estrangement. The two are drifting apart. Five Republican Btate Convention* have been held recent ly, and uot one of them has extended to the President the cheap nominal oourteay of an endorsement. This silence on the part of the Republican* of IndiAua, Illi nois and Miokigau, and these direct re buke* froui those of Kao*a* and Pennsyl vania, indicate uot only a determined op position of the Northern people to a third term, but au ominous coolness of the Northern Republican* toward* their Pres ident. At preaeut, the relation between them i* one of estrangement, but it may ripen, at tbe next ses*ion of Congress, into au overt quarrel.—St. hmi* Repub lican. Another Move or tub Central Rail road.—We nnder*tand, aaya tbe Savannah New*, that Col. W. M. Wadley, President of tho Central Railroad, ha* recently had • survey made of the Oconee river from the railroad bridge near Toomb*boro to Dublin, with the object of ascertaining the practicability of uuiting these two point* by a Htomuhoat line. The distance is about thirty-five mile*, aud it is stated that the survey demonstrated the fact that the river can be cleaned and put in excel lent boating order at an expense of a few hundred dollars. The Wilkinson Appeal *ay* : “A coin- S sny has been organized in Dublin, with lr. John B. Wolfe a* President, who will commence runuing a boat in time to carry off the present cotton cron. The thrifty town of Dublin will thus bave quick and reliable communication with tho outside world. Huooess to the enterprise." New Issue One Dollar Notes.—Tbe new issue of oao dollar United States Treasury notes ho* made its appearance. While the general style of tbe new and the old one dollar notes is the srme on the face, the baok* ure entirely different. On the face of the new note i* the same central medalion head of Washington and left hand corner vignette of Columbus discovering America, a* well as the same right and upper corner lathe work denom inational vignette. There is no green tint on the face of tbe new note, as is the case with the old i*sue. The differences of engraving on the faco of the new note are dimply in the borders for nutuhors and in tbe red treasury *eal. Thi* latter is now smaller, and placed between tbe Washington and Columbus vignettes. In place of the large seal on the old note is a red border and lathe w ork over the block letters forming the words “one dollar." Tho baok of the new note is green, of oousse, but of a new, elaborate and intri cate sign of geometrical lathe work, with a St. Andrew’s cross in the centre bearing tho words “United States of Amerioa."

Some very curious statistics in rolatiou to the subject of the marriage of blood relations have been presented to the Frenoh Academy, and largely published in order to warn the pooplu of that eoun try agaiust the danger of consanguinous marriages. It is BSid that fully two per cent, of Frenoh marriages are thosa of blood relations. Without going into the ordinary representations iu regard to the effect of suoh marriages on the health and bodily constitutions of the children, as well as*of tbe mental capacity of those who have the use of the organ* of *peeoh and hearing, these statistics are devoted especially to tbe relation of cou*anguin- oos marriages with the birth of doat and dumb children.
