FRIDAY HEPTEMBEK 4, 1874.
Mua. Ellen Lm, a native of Ireland*
died in Nee York cit j on Monday, at the
greatly advanced aged of lift.
A dispatch from Penaaooln reports the
death in the Marine Hoapital, on Sunday,
of a yellow fever patient, and adds that
there is now no case in the city or hos
pital.
Tbs nominating Convention of the 7th
Congressional District had an eaaier tank
than any one anticipated. Mr. Trammell
was nominated on the 17th balloting. 'I bis
vote stood—Trammell 18, Young D, Wad
dell (i. The aaajority rale bad been
adopted.
Gem. John O. Forraa, wboee death at
Naaaan, on the 1st inat., in reported by
telegraph, was the Federal officer who re-
moved the garrison from Moultrie to Hum-
ter before hoatilitiea commenced. He was
Mfterwards one of the party that surren
dered. He nerved with distinction during
the war. chiefly in North Carolina.
A Radical desperado named Alex. New-
ton, who was Sergeant-at-arms of the Re
publican (’.invention of Louisiana lately,
killed Justice Houdonnay in New Orleans
on Tuesday evening. Mr. Ilondonney,
who was a Democrat, was at a raUfiaation
meeting, talking about the situation,
when Newton rime up atid stabbed him
to the heart with a bowie knife.
Wb fiud in the Montgomery Stott Jour
nal the authoritative announcement of
Judge Littloberry Strange as an "inde
pendent" candidate for re-election as
Judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit of
Alabama. Judge Strauge charges thst he
was defeated for the nomination by
bribery—a moat serious charge, which
ought to be fully investigated. We won
der if they refused the Judge any share
in that hacou for the "overflowed." Does
be mean that bribery was used iu the
Convention, upou the delegates, or that
it was used to buy up the negroes at the
primary meetings?
Teat Cases.
The results of the late trials at Mont
gomery ought to have great weight in de
termining which is the lawless political
party in Alabama. A Radical Judge was
arrested for illegal protection afforded by
him to rogues of his own party. His
friends, in retaliation, caused the arrest
of six gentlemen of Eufaula for alleged
violation of the Enforcement act. Both
parties were carried to Montgomery for
preliminary trial. The gentlemen of the
Democratic jmrty, after a searching inves
tigation lasting several days, during
which the Radical party uaed every
effort to procure or manufacture evidence
against them, were honorably acquitted
and discharged without bail. The trial
was before a Republican Federal Com
missioner. lint Hoils, the Radical Judge,
*as bound over iu a large bond. Kveu
the Solicitor who practices in his court—a
Republican officer and candidate for re-
election—gave most damaging testimony
against him. These cross cases consti
tuted one of tho most exciting political
aud party disputes that hai lately agitated
Alabama, and they resulted iu the uom-
plete exculpation of the Democrats, while
the Radical is held to answer.
THK UNT RAbl€AI< I*MOP.
The dispatches of yesterday lead us to
believe that tho greedy and unscrupulous
office-seekers of the Southern Radical
party have succeeded in their maohina-
tions. They have obtaiued the promise
of Fodcral bayonets to help them, after
the going through of a little official for
mality to give a pretext of hesitation in
committing the outrago. They flocked
simultaneously, at a concerted signal,
(rum all parts of the South, to
Waahiugtou and Lung Branch. Kel
logg aud his gang of rowdies,
fresh from their riots and violence
in New Orlaaus; White aud Sheets,
aud perhaps Tellium from Alabama, im
mediately after their disgraceful proceed
ings at Selma and Montgomery ; aud Pat
terson aud his corrupt guug from down
trodden South Carolina all, with many
others of the same stripe from tho several
States of the South, hurried North, with
tlieir falsehoods, to have their States
again subjected to military invasion ; all
for the miserable purpose of gaining office
for themselves and power for their party.
Aud too ready and credulous an ear has
been lent by tho poteut Attorney
General, and we fear by General
Oraut, to their infamous statements.
We fervently trust that every decent
whito man uud every intelligent negro in
the South are iu a lit frame of mind to
make this iniquity recoil with overwhelm
ing disaster upou the heads of its prompt
ers. It ought to arouse a storm of iudig-
uutiou at the South thst will end in the
disgraceful defeat of the Radical party in
every State uud every Congressional Dis
trict. Let it stimulate all onr energies
aud draw* out to tho poles such a white
vote as was never before counted. We
cun never have peace or freedutu while
thus subjected to wrongs and indignities
for the promotion of tho selfish purposes
of bad uion among us, and the aooner the
Southern people teach them that they are
no longer to be tufted with iu this way,
the better.
editors, particularly Radical one* and
those who commit the unpardonable sin
of nsiug patent outsides. Bnt in this
caw we determined to "try it on" and
await re ulta.
The mysteries of newspsperdom are
various, and sometimes unfathomable.
Our unfortunate brother at Fort Valley
appears to be very much ia the name state
of mind aa H. Ward Beecher, though ws
have no idea that his little misfortune at
all resembled Beecher's in kind. He hss
had hia “feelings rumpled up worse than
the bristles on a porcupine's bask” (we
thought that they never got rumpled, but
just stuck out as stiff as a lightning rod),
and .it for something that be ia "just as
innoosnt of aa a new-born babe." It ia a
sad case, enlisting our profoundest sym
pathies, aa well for the editor of the Mir
ror as for his subscribers who lost one-
half of the patent outside that he and
they had to pay for.
Ott FORKIOST MEM.
We have endeavored to imprest upon the
people of Georgia the importance of send
ing men of first-rate talent to the next Con
grem of tho United States; end though
we have beau much disappointed in the
nominations made in at least one of the
District!!, we era glad to see that credita
ble ability is to be secured by the election
of the gentlemen put forward in the sev
eral Districts that have made their nomi
nations. The nomination of Hon. Julian
Haitridge in the First Congressional Dis
trict proves that the people of that Dis
trict were resolved to have a man quali
fied to represent it worthily and honora
bly. He went into no scramble to get the
nomination, made no electioneering tours
or speeches, and kept his "claims" so well
out of the canvass, that we were sur
prised aa well as pleased by hia nomina
tion. The Democrats of the Fifth Dis
trict have selected an able standard-bearer
in Mr. Candler, and we think that in
point of talents au improvement has been
made in the nomination in the Seventh
District
But, good as moat of the selections so
far made may be, we have to regret
that Georgia will not have in the next
Congress her two ablest politicians
to uphold her rights end tell the story of
her wrongs iu tones that would command
the attention end enlist the sympathy of
the whole couutry. We allude, of course,
to the Hod. Robert Toombs end the Hon.
Bonjamin II. Hill. Geu. Toombs labors
under the "disqualification" inflicted
chiefly as a means of excluding Southern
talent from office as long aa pomible, and
he ia also said to be averse to taking a
■eat in Congress at this time. We may
iudulge the hope that the day ia not far
distant when both he end Mr. Hill will
oocupy representative positions for which
they are so admirably fitted.
It is rather strange that the Southern
people, seeing the despotic meeeures
adopted to keep their experienced and
able politicians out of offloe as long as
possible -knowing that this course was
resorted to because it wee obviously cal
culated to retard the regaining of their
political power aud influence—slid not
hasten, aa soon aa most of the restrictions
were removed, to put in high positions
the men who had been thus politically
ostracised. They but oontinuo the policy
of their oppressors by prolonging the
retirement of such men. They tacitly
acquieeoe iu the indignity by failing to
manifest their resentment.
In all the several Congresses since the
war, the representatives of the white
men of the South have been few in nuin-
tiers, end the Democrats from the North
were not numerous enough to enable
them, by alliance, to do anything more
than to offer generally feeble end un
availing opposition to the revolutionary
measures of the party in power. But we
have good reason to believe that the op
position party iu the next Congress will be
much stronger end more effloient. It will
no doubt share largely in the shaping of
the legislation of Congress. It will doubt
less be able to arrest the onward progress
of the Government towards a centralized
despotism. It will have an aggressive’aa
well as a defensive polioy. It will rely
upou ita strength, not upon the magna-
niuiity of the party that has so long ruled
the country with despotic away. The
Southern wing of the pariy will need
strong men—able men—to maintain their
advanced poeition. They will want intel
lect commensurate with their numerieel
strength—the power to sustain by argu
ment the greater responsibilities devolved
upon them. It is to meet this changed
end more hopeful condition of affairs
that the South needs her ablest men in
the uext Congress. While we believe
that Georgia will do trell in contributing
uieu of ability and foroe, we should have
been better satisfied if she had done her
ctry beet iu every District.

Philadelphia, August 2V.—Nearly two
months havo passed since Charley Hoe*
was taken almost from the vorv threshold
of hia father's house, and yet the prospect
of hia recovery has at no time been dark
er than to-day. The belief that the ohild
waa stolen for revenge grows stronger
every day. What the circumstances were
that led to this devilish attempt to avenge
a wrong, real or imaginary, are among
thelaecreta of this unfathomable mystery.
The City Detective Department has
been weighed in the balance and found
wanting, numerous private detectives
have tried their akill and failed, and now
the beat organized agency in the country
is to try its hand. Allen Pinkerton has
been eugaged to undertake what now ap
pears to be almost an impoaaible task.
Ho will set the whole maoniuery of hia
bureau at work. To defray the necessary
expenses of this renewed search a sum of
money is to be raised, independently of
the roward of $20,000 already promised.
Mr. George Phitlee, President of the Firat
National Bank of this oity, will set aa
treasurer of the fund, to which oitixens
are asked to contribute.
Pinkerton haa taken hold of the matter
in earnest, and has prepared a oiroular to
be distributed where it will do the most
good. At the head of the circular ia a
photograph of the loot boy, which is pro
nonneed an excellent likeneaa. The aa*
cription of the ohild Ia fuller and better
