Clarke county hod au election the oth er day on the fence question, and it re. suited as all election* of the kind in the South have no far moulted -in favor of tho maintenance of the present system of fencing. The vote stood 1,532 to 04. The next trial to elect a Resreaeutative to i'/ongrean in Judge Poland’s District, in Vermont, will be on the first Tuesday in Novomher. Papers of tho District ex press tho confident opinion that Denni son, the bolters’ candidate, will bo elected on tbo next trial. Gov. Smith.—The Atlanta correspond* ont of tho Augusta Chronicle writes in his last letter : “I heard to-day from the lips of a prominent candidate for Governor that Gov. Janus M. Smith bad snid ho would not ho a candidate for re-election. Ho is represented uh saying that tho office, aside from its harrassing ernes and mo mentous responsibilities, was one poorly remunerative and exceedingly laborious, and that for those reasons he longed for tho quiet peace of private life.” _ « Tin: Now York papers of Tuesday say that tho Beecher-Tilton trial in the City Court is set for tho first Monday in Octo- Iter, before Judge Nelson. So wo are likely aoon to have a re lmsh of tho scan dalous testimony. A roportorof the Her ald represents one of Itcocher’s lnwyer’s as saying that the letters and confessions of Beecher will ho objected tons evidence and probably ruled out; that Beechor will be acquitted, and even if convicted, Ply. mouth Church will no! give him up ns its pustor. Tiik Maine election occurs on the second Monday in September (next Monday;, not the first, as wo erroneously stated tho other day. Tho Now York Herald ex- peots a light vote and a reduction of the usual Republican majority, and the elec, tion of a Legislature that will return Han nibal Hamlin to tho United States Sen ate. Of the Congressional elections it says that the lie pub lie. turn “have been in fear hi f tho loss of at least ouo member of Congress; Imt t' • lvcciit Southern outrages and I 1 tit's instruc tions concerning them will, it in thought save the whole Mam delegation. In fact, Southern outrages jus', now are esteemed a godsend to tl o Northern Republicans.” The Augusta Chronicle'* Atlanta cor respondent lately rcpreflsntod Hon. 11. il. Hill ns disappointed and sore because he failed to receive iho Democratio nomina tion for Congress in tbo Ninth District. Tho corruspi ndont corrected this in his last letter, and tho Chronicle (which is opposed to Mr. Hill's nominate n) makes tho amende bauds" mety, as follows: It appears thai injustice has been done Mr. Hill. He was neither “chafed” nor disappointed ut Ins failure to receive the nomination for Congress in tho Ninth Dint not. We have it from undoubted Authority that Mr. Hill uovor lifted a lin ger to get tho nomination, and that .he bus never felt or expressed tho slightest dissatisfaction or disappointment about tho matter. Tho truth is, that Mr. Hill thinks the failure to nominate him a per sonal good fortune to himself. He is not only satisfied with tho nomination of Col. Garnett McMilliav, but if it were neces sary to defeat a Radical, Mr. Ildl would cheerfully stump the District for Col. Mo- Milieu's election. Mori: Arrests at Eufaula!—Tlit Montgomery Adrerliatr of yesterday stated that Judge K. M. Kail's was still hanging around Montgomery, and that it was supposed by somo he win trying to get out new warrants for the arrest of citizens of Eufaula. The Eiifanla Time* of the same date states that l'. S. Mar- shuts Williford and Unudolph visited its city on Thursday, with warrants issued l*y Commissioner Rurke of Montgomery, under which they urrostod the following citizens of Eufaula*. G. L, Comer, Mag istrate; T. IX Patterson, City Marshal; Gen. Alpheus Raker, James M. Ruford, Esq., Win. H. Courtney. Policeman ; C. C. Hkillnitui, 1C. J. iilack, editor Eufaula oVVtt/rj K. D. Shropshire, editor Eufaula Tims*. Tho Time* says that its oditor is inno cent of any* violation of tho law, and does not know for what ho and the other citizens of Eufaula are arrested, except upon a goueral charge of conspiring to intimidate Keils by exposing his mal feasance in office. We wish them a speedy ami safe deliverance, which wo doubt not they will receive ; uud not for themselves only, but for thoir community a deliverance from its chief mischief- maker. (.0(111 KKWN-It' Tlll t We heartily wish that it may provo to ho true—that special dispatch to tho Now York Tribune (copied elsewhere) which says that the President contemplates tho removal of the pestiferous Federal office holders of tho 8juth as one moans of re storing quiet in this sectiou. There is no doubt that it would contribute greatly towards tho quieting of such excitements ami putting au end to such misrepresen tations as are now cur rout. Many of tho Federal office-holders have been chiefly instrumental in Rotting up tho bad feel ing now existing. Wo need only to refer to the course of nearly the whole gang of them in Now Orleans, to Rusteod and othors iu Alabumn, and to the custom house officials at Sevauuah. Let Federal officers know that they have their official duties to atteud to, aud that they are to let the people m-uage election matters course of the Federal officials in the South as “the tap-root «»f all the trouble” which has “perpetuatod the frightful ini<V"V«riimtut of the post six or seven year** ’ It concludes a sensible article on the it jeot by saying : “We are glad to learn that the purp le has been expressed by the Administration to make sweeping removals of office-holders of the politi* cian class in 'some of the States, and | put in their plsces men known to be hon- I Git aud capable. This is the most effect ive step toward reform and good govern ment that has yet been taken, and will do vastly more g<N»d than any coercive meas ures. The President will deserve the thanks of all law-abiding citizens if he adopts this policy.” Lot proper representations bo made to him at Washington, aud at Atlanta, if he comes to that city, and we may yet have the pleasure of seeing many of tho fo- menters of trouble at tho Mouth “hoisted with their own petard." A RADICAL MOUTHERS CONVEN TION. A month ago it was announced that Senator Morton, of Indiana, ex-Oovernor Clayton, of Aikansas, and other Radical politicians, Lad held a caucus at Hot Springs and agreed upon the call of a convention of their party at Atlanta, for the purpose of representing to Congress (ho condition of tho ftouthorn .States. It was charged at the time that this was but a step preliminary to tho stirring up of conflicts between the whites and blacks, so as to obtain Fedoral intervention in tho affairs of the Mouth. Wo all know how Ibis programme has boon carried out so far, with a success even exceeding tho an ticipations of tho plotters. It seems, how ever, that tbo convention is still to be held, and that tho 12th of October is tho day for its meeting. Dispatches from Washington report that it lias not only been endorsed by tho Republican Con gressional Committee, blit that it “has the unqualified approval of the President and members of the Cabinot." It is also added that it is tbo intention of the Pres ident uud severul members of thedabiuet to attend the convention personally, to gether with leading statesmen and capi talists who desire to learn the true condi tion of the .South, If (he Convention is really to be attend ed by the President and his Cabinet, and by Northern men sincerely desirous to | learn tho true condition of tho Mouth, what a pity it is that the Convention is to bo a one-sided party affair. Why are not all tho representative men of tho Mouth invited to attend it, or all tho people of tbo Mouth requested to send delegates ? Wo are told, it is truo, that not a single Federal office-holder is to be admitted, and this will shut out some of the most active and unscrupulous enemies of tho white people of tho South. Rut tho office-wrier* are equally interested, and even more rapacious, and we find no inti mation that they are to bo excluded ; in deed the exclusion of both tho office holders ami office-sockors of the Southern Radical party would leave so few whites to go to Atlanta as to make the whole affair appear ludicrous enough. Caro jh taken to excludo the representa tives of the great body of tho whites, hy the requirement that tho delegates must bo “men entitled to respect and confi dence by reason of their loyalty during tho rebellion.” So tho exclusion of tho Federal office holders docs not by any means make room for the representatives of tho white men of tho Mouth. Wero it not for tho statement that the President aud members of the Cabinet will atteud this convention, we should ad vise that tho Democrats of the South take no action concerning it. But if it bo re ally true that the President is coming, his great error in seeking to loam tho truth about the political condition of tho South from only one of its political partioH ought not to make ns indifferent ns to what he may learn. We think that the whito peo ple of tho South ought to send delegates to Atlunta at the same time. They may not be admitted into the exclusive Radi al Convention, but they will nevertheless find au opportunity to expose the motives, correct the misrepresentations uud meet the charges of the ltudical delegates. They might have to meet And deliberate sepa rately, but Gen. Grant could not refuse them a hearing, utid he could not but ho struck with the remarkable contrast be tween the two U“HoiuhlngoH. It seems to us that the attendance of tho Executive officers of the Federal Government would give to this Radical Convention an impor tance which w'o should not overlook, nml that wo outi, by proper uetiou, nuiko the occasion work the vindication of tho South rather than her condemnation. What say our brethren of tho Southern press ? ^ ^ THE TRUE REMEDY. SOUTHERN OFFICE-HOLDERS TO HE REMOVED. Special to the X. Y. Tribune.] Washinoton, September 7.—Coupled with the present vigorous measures for quieting the South, others of n different nature are under consideration. It bus been found that under the practice of the Senate each Republican member of that body is allowed to have absolute control of the patron »go of his section, so thut tho President is obliged to make such nominations for all local offices ns are do* iimudod bv Seuators. In several South ern States tho whole patronage has thus been thrown by the Senate into the hands of a siugle tuau, there being but one Republican from the State. The effect of this has now been found to he that neatly nil the branches of the public ser vice i:i somo of theso States is in the hands of men totally unfit to hold Gov ernment positions. The whole ground is being closely examined, aud numerous changes may be looked for soon. In one or two States it is the prescut purpose to remove nearly every Federal office-holder, and in their places put mou known at tho various departments to be fitted for the positions, aud to do this whether the va rious Seuators interested agree to it or not, and throw the responsibility of the rejection of auit&ble men upon the Sen ate. Many of tho complaints which roach the departments from various parts of the South inrogard to these Federal office holders are known at tho departments to be well founded, and tho iutention is to remedy tbo evil whorover it exists iu the manner indicated.

The present constitution was tho work of n parcel of dirty dogs, thieves aud ras cals, and no decent white man should ac knowledge it.

General Toombs violently denounced the legislative amendment in reference to the payment of bonds, ns a fraud, and ns not effecting the object it pretended to effect. Ho was very severe upon a certain State Senator, whom he denounced as be ing ono of the grandest kpaves in Geor gia, and expressed the opinion that he was iu the pay of tho bondholders.

C. B. A Slnmler Refuted. Although Radical politicians, who hope thereby to accomplish their Imso and self ish purposes, are continually crying out that tho Houih is disloyal, and thut no man can live hero unless ho is a Demo crat, tho testimony of tho distinguished Federal officer who commands tho “Mili tary Department of the South,” and who light to know if such things are really true, is of n far different character. Major General Irwin McDowell, in ic- sponding to a toast at tho Banquet of the Army of tho Potomac, among other things uaul: “It lias been my duty, within rt short time past, to go all over our Southern country, through Kentucky and Tennes see, made memorable by the acts of those who now honor us with thoir presence, down through that samo march by which the Goncr.il of our Army—then a Major General—went to tlio son through Chatta nooga with its Lookout, and through Missionary Ridgo and Atlanta; through Fort Pickens, which was peppered all tho year long ; Fort Pulaski, nud Fort Sum ter, and all over South Carolina. I have brought buck, among other results, a deep and firm impression that there is no part of our couutiy •/ do not except tern Con- neclicut or Mamiehuxttts- in which the authority of the Tnited State* in more thoroughly, more firmly, am! more tin re. Hereedty achnoieledgrd than it h in our Sout/urn State,if This is tho emphatic testimony of au officer who lias not dragged his military robes through tbo mud and filth of Radi calism, but has discharged his official du ties with tho same degree of fairness and impartiality that cbnractotizcd then iiuiu- istratiou of Gou. Hancock That General McDowell speaks truly, every Democratic State and county in th.* South cb-arly proves. It is only in Radical States and comities that outrages are perpetrated, and it is ouly there that disorder aud cor ruption prevail. Look at the proud old Strtto of Georgia, and our own noble couuty of Pike. Peace and good older prevail in nil their b >rders, and the people are prosperous and happy. South Caro lina is torn aud rent by It .dical violence and corruption, and Barbour county, in this State, is in the name condition. Why this great contrast ? Because Rudicalwu brings to the front and puts into power, to oppress, degrade nud rob the people, the meanest and mo.it corrupt men to be found, both black uud white. Couvicted felons and notorious thieves are put into office, and in order to cover up their r ealities nud that he (P.J could buy all the negro votes of Russell couuty with two onnks of bacou. This was repeated Saturday iu the pres ence of several colored meu, who ex pressed considerable iudiguation at the idea. We suppose Pelham expects, of course, to buy up colored votes with the “overflowed” now in tbo depot.—I}it**rll Itreorder. —One notable effect of the war—and one that has contributed as much an any oiLw M^gleVmuRo to paralyze Southern Agriculture—w tho constant gravitation of tue Aegroes to the towns and cities. Hero tho<* live in miserable huts and hov els, deprived of proper food and vcutila- tion, and the prey of • *< ry species of epidemic and disease. Those who re main in the rural districts are but too frequout y of lazy habits, prefer desulto ry jobs to steady employment, aud eke out a precarious liviug by stealing from neighboring farmers. Thus agriculture suffers not ouly tho loss of aproducer.but the community is harrassed by a waste ful, tliiovihli and improvident consumer. The traveling correspondent of the Cin cinnati Commercial sonds that paper in terest iug st atistics, which show the extent of influx of the negro population into some of tho Southern cities since tho war. Iu Nashville, for instance, in 18(H), tho white population was 13,043, and the black 3,24ft. In 1870 it stood 10,140 white, or an increase of about 30 per cent., and 0,700 black, or au increase of uoarly 200 per cent. In Memphis, during the same decade, the white population increased from 18,730 to24,7.Vi, aud the black from 3,882 to 13,471. Tho sntno ratio of in- retwo prevails with most of the other Southern cities. As a natural result of this condition of things; the jails and workhouses are always full, and the ne groes are reported by the statistics to be dying sixty per cent, faster than the whites.—Haiti more (luzettc.
