WHY IN THIN T
It hdl he noticed that in the strong ne
gro counties throughout the South, when
the colored Iladical votera innist on a
ahare of “the spoilt*” for their own race,
they are invariably given the officeH of
memhera of the Lcgialature, hut the pay
ing county offices are appropriated hy the
white leadera. Thin is notably the caae
in the counties of Alabama nearest to iia.
It is ho in Bullock, Barbour and Mont-
boro’ on Thursday. The report
does not hold that Grant is responsible
for the troubles in Louisiana, but c‘.aim»
that it is the fruit of the iniquitonn re-
construction act and policy. He hoped
General Grant would submit the whole
matter to Congress." ^
Will somebody—anybody—toll us whut
will rid a house of the pestiferous little
red and black ants? The Columbus En-
qUIbir is pretty good in the domestic
iccipe line—can t it furnish one in answer
to this question?—Augunta Comtitution-
aliit.
Thunk you for your recognition of
our usefulness in one impoTtaul particu
lar. Our rocipo for ants is very similar
to the Athens sharp’s recipe for getting
rid of nut gmss—“leave the place."
The New York 11*raid publishes what
purports to bo a conversation between
President Grant and Senator Putterson
and the Southern carpet-baggers, at
Washington on Monday, on tho subject
of tho Civil Bights bill. According to thin
report Gen. Grant told Patterson that he
wonld certainly have vetoed the Civil
Bights bill if it hud passed at the last ses
sion of Congress; but that “should it pass
at tho next session, I cannot say that I
will veto it. It may bocomo my duty to
sign it.” Tho President added that the
responsibility would rest with the South
ern Republicans, who had forced this
question upon tho party.
If it bo trgo that Gon. Grant would cer
tainly have vetoed tho hill at tho 1ah( aes-
aion, hut now says that it “may bocomo
his duty to sign it at tho next session,”
what are we to infer from this change of
purpose ? Wo do not know of any differ
ence in principle between the Civil Bighta
bill if passed in Juno and the same bill
p> sand in December. We can only con-
jo dure that Gen. Grant contemplated the
conciliation of the Southern whites last
Juno, but may next winter sign tho bill as
a moans of attaching tho nogroea to his
support in tho canvaas for a third term.
Hot—Holler- Hottest.
Senator Morton, of Indinna, as is well
known, went to Europe two or three years
ago and submitted to tho moxa for fire
blistering) treatment for hoiuo disease not
known. Recently he wont to tho Hot
Hprings, in Arknns and tried their
waters of tho *■•-!.- ' - vatu re, with
out periunneut relief. It was there, ac
cording to report, while he was experienc
ing “how it was himself,” ihnt ho aided
in coi coding the Radical scheme for get
ting up the hottest kind of times through
out the South, by reports of Kii-Klux
outrages and the distribution of federal
soldiers among us. Should tho scheme
•ucucod in getting things hot enough down
here, Morton will no doubt come down
again to see if that kind of temperature
will do him any good. Should it fail, we
know of only one placo that is likoly to
provo hot enough fur him, and if he is
willing to try it, tlin people of this section
will not apply for n writ of injunction.
The Kurnulift Trials.
'Hie examination of the Eufaula gentle
men arrested at tho iustunce of Judge
Keils, on tho ohnrge of a violation of the
Enforcement not, was concluded on Wed
nesday night. All of the prisoners, ex
cept Messrs. Shropshire and Black, wore
bound over in the sum of $1,000 each.
Shropshire and Black were diacharged be
cause th*-ro was not a particle of evidenco
"gainst them—the prosecution being alto
gether malicious uud retaliatory. Judge
Keils testified against tho others, ns did
two or three other witnesses. The de
fendants introduced no testimony, aud
their attorneys mado no argument, but
rested the cuno solely on the evidence of-
tho prosecutiou, and ('onuuissioner Burke
held thorn to nnswor ns ubovo stated.
Afterwards the three goutloiucn last
arresto I, on tho ehargo of a negro who
said that they hud intimidated him from
testifying as strongly as ho wished in l»o-
half of lveils, wero examined aud dis
charged, there being no ovidenoo what
ever to justify their detention. Those
gentlemen wore Messrs. Sporman, Rainser
aud Martin.
HRF.NNIN* NH’OKI).
The tolograph reports that the govern-
uiout instituted by the peoplo of Louis
iana has already been overthrown by Gen.
Grant. As was expected, Gov. Fenu and
his support era offered no opposition to
the Federal authority, not becauso thoy
recognized its constitutional right to in
terfere. Imt because they knew their ina
bility long to resist it, and wore not wil
ling to engage in a hopeless contest.
They surrender to a despotism, so far as
submission to its power is involved, but
they have not recognized Kellogg, aud we
imagine that tho Government at Washing
ton w 11 find tbat hit rule in Louisiana is
say to ber, “You shall aubmit lo what a
little party of insignificant young dema
gogues say do,* and that, too, under the
protest of tin* Chairman of the former
Democratic Executive Committee. Now,
attack the whites ; the latter are actively !
preparing to defend themselves and fam- j
ilies.
—Dr. G. W. Lawrence, Republican
.... , member of the last General Assembly from
Mr. Editor, we think the only way Cherokee county, and recently nominate I
that such nominations can be fairly ! for the Ha me position by the Republicans
mado is by the delegate plan; and because, j in that county, has declined to accept the
nominations. Two reasons are given for
this, but they are both untenable, if not
ridiculous. One reason is that the ne
groes have not the capacity to fill the
county offices—they lack tho education
and intelligence. But if they are not ca.
pable of filling the offices of tax assessor
and collector, sheriff, county treasurer,
probate judge, etc., how can they be com
petent to sit and act as legislators ? Is
loss intelligence required to make than to
execute laws? The Mississippi darkey
might have stretched the thing a little
when he claimed the right to practice as a
lawyer in the courts, because, he said, his
race had made the laws in that State and
ought to be allowed to practice them.
But when it coiiiom to filling a county of
fice, with duties well-definod bylaw, sure
ly there is no greater danger of error than
there is in the passage of hurtful laws. The
negro county official may not be able to
read or write, but he can as easily employ
clerical assistanoo as an uneducated leg
islator can obtain help in tho drawing up
of a bill or resolution. We do not intend
by this to suggest that it will do to give
tho county offices to ignorant and nnedu-
cated men, but rather that the argument
againnt their having the county offices is
equally strong against their election as
legislators, if not more so.
The other reason given is that tho no-
groeH cannot give the bonds required of
county officers. The real significance of
thin is that the white Radicals of the
county arc willing to go on the bonds of
the officials of their own race, but are
not willing to go on tho bonds of negroes.
It strikes in that there is a elight dis
crimination on ucooont of race or color
in this. It savors very umoh of diequal-
if cation on account of color. The negro
may vote as much as he pleases—and
sometimes more than he ought—and he
may go to the Legislature to make laws
when ho insists on his “rights” in the
party ; but he can't get a paying county
office, bocause liis white Radical col
leagues, who can't get anything without
his vote, won't go on his bond! It is
strange that the negroes cannot see the
injustice and insult of this treatment of
them hy the Radical party. If they
would he half as vociferous in claiming
their “rights" in their own party, os they
are in claiming imaginary “rights" from
the white people of the Houth, these
things would not be so. But it is none of
our funeral.
•‘CIUHTH DINTBICT" IN REPLY
TO “OEORttlA.”
Editor Enquirer Sun:—In auswer to
the inquiry of “Georgia,” the great:
“What means all this disinterestedness
coming from the Eighth District, or its
lenders ?” 1 can answer with all prompt
ness, that they do not intend to submit to
an unfair nomination, if they can help
theniHelves, especially such an one as he
aud hia friends aro now attempting to
palm off upon uh l>y a cut and packed
ring. Such an one, too, Mr. Editor, as
has no precedent in the history of Geor
gia Democracy, except in the grand roll of
the last Reconstruction measures, when
every precinct in tho country was closed,
and every one marched to the Court llouao
to deposit their ballot. And why, Mr.
Editor? Simply because ho and his friends
now, as thou, intended to smother up or
provent a fron expression of the whole
party, if they could ; for they knew that
that was their only chance of engineer
ing their scheme And plot successfully
through. It docs appear to us, Mr. Editor,
to say the least of it, that if the great
"Georgia" is not willing to allow us our
old timo-bonored plan of district rep
resentation, that he ought not to have
shut up our procinots. Oh! shame, on
tho groAt “Georgia” and his friends, Mr.
Editor; what outrageous acts they are
committing in tho name of Democracy.
If “Georgia” tho great will mako a tour
through the country instead of conversing
with the said gontlemen from various
portions of the country, and leave the
malcouteiitcd Eighth out of hia track, aud
then return to the city and inquire of
the sober-thinkiug citizens of the city,
he may then exclaim of a truth—
“What doos it mean ?” I am truly glad,
Mr. Editor, that we have but few men
of tho calibre of tho great “Georgia”aud
liis friends in tho Democracy of Geor
gia, for 1 should tremble for the faithful
of the party if thoy were our trustiest
and tried leaders. As “Bill Arp” says,
“give 'em rope enough” and they will
not only “hang 'eiuselves,'' but the whole
party. Now, Mr. Editor, we deplore the
bitter stato aud feeliug which “Georgia"
the great is endeavoring to get up; but
we feel in duty bound to ourselves, to
vindicate ourselves from the unjust as
pensions of our characters—but also, our
motives and intentions. Now our object
forever b okeu. Tne State must be kept | was to harmonize aud correct the
uoder military rule until the people elect j wrong if we could. “But to the law
a government for themselves, and this and testimony.” It is well known through-
they infinitely prefer to the state of things out the city, country, and I think I might
forsooth, we come forward and claim our
rights in the party, we are met by tho
great Georgia with the unjust appellation 1 !
of “dictators," “pouters," “malcontents, '
and then to cap it all we did not get the man
in the Eighth District which we ran, and
wanted nominated. Wo will inform
nomination, and declared liiiuself bitteilv
opposed to the iniquitonn Civil Rights
bill.

existing before they deposed Kellogg.
Tho difference between Gen. Grant's
action in ibis case and hia course towards
Arkansas is very marked. The Attornoy-
General is reported as saying that the
Baxter ami Brooks contest in Arkansas, a
safely say, to the great “Georgia" him
self, that there are objections to oue of
the present nominees, and those objec
tions are so good And valid that sober-
minded, reflecting men will not give their 1 succeeded
suffrage to such a nominee; hut to | corpse.
Icct good men, either from tho country or
city, and then we will feel that wo ore do
ing our duty in resisting tho usurpers of
our rights ; and then, when the election
comes, wo will make demagogues feel that
Muscogoc county dictates for hersolf.
