Grimes. Wm. P. Williams. The Democrats of Bibb county, on Friday,*nominated Hon. Thos. Hardeman. Hon. A. O. Bacon, and Hon. D. D. Craig for the Legislature. The nomination was made by ballot, and a largo vote polled. Jeff Bums, colored, one of tho Floyd county convicts to the chain gang, was killed a few days ago at llidge Valloy Iron Works, while at work under ground, by the dirt failing in upon him. Another one was badly hurt, but not seriously. Tint report of tho death of Badger, Kellogg's Chief of Police, was a mistake. The New Orleans papers say that he ap peared to l»o improving on Thursday, though he refused to submit to the ampu tation, of a leg, which tho physicians de clare to be necessary. The Athens Watch not n says it is re ported that Hon. Joshua Hill will shortly deolurc himself on independent candidate for Congress in the Ninth District. Other reports say that Mr. Hill has declared liis determination not to run. His republi canism is of the moderate kind, and Josh Hill is a gentleman in any party. It is to be hoped that the native whites of Louisiana, during their three or four days’ possession of the official records of that State, oblninod documentary proofs of the corruptions and misdeeds of the Kellogg government—proofs that will convinco tho country of the intolerable character of tho usurpation which they so signally overthrew, and which tho Fed eral Administration is now trying to re store by military power. R. W. Carpenter was tried last week, at Blacksbear, for the murder of his nephew, Walter L. Colo, in March last. Tho facta in reference to tho murder, as far ns known, have already boon publish ed. . Cole was found dead in the woods, !>etwoen his and Carpenter's house, and a neighbors *, bloody shoes and pants were found in Carpenter's house, ami ho came into possession of considerable property by Cole’s death. The evidence v circumstantial. On Friday tho jury brought iu a verdict of guilty. The Montgomery Journal gives a ro- port of the Democratic meeting hold on Friday night, to determine what action would ho taken in regard to tho drilling by negro military companies at night. The committee appointed to investigate reported thnt tho facts had boon much ex aggerated, and some of tho extravagnnt statements were duo to tho possibility to wards each ojhor of tho two Radical fac tions iu the city ; Hint though one com pany of negroes with u few arms did drill oftou at night, and two others without arms, there was no danger of any riot be tween the whites and blacks. But they recommended, us a precaution iu the in terest of peace, that night drilling by both parties be discontinued. The New York Herald has for a woek been calling for a National Convention to consider the Southern question, iu the interest of peace and reconciliation. A Washington dispatch to the Now York Hun says that Froaidcnt <•rant not only favors thy movement hut instigated the writing of the editorial articles iu the Herald. It referred to uu editorial of the Washington National Hepubliean (Ad ministration paper) of tho 12th inst., as showing that it had “wheeled into lino." The llepubliran of the Kith, noticing this statement of tho Sun, says : “If tho Sun will look closer at what wo say, it will find that, while favoring tho convention, we differ in toto from tho premise* of the HeraldIt docs not notice the state ment of the Sun thnt General Grant in stigated the Herald's articles. The Montgomery, Alabama, papers of yesterday represent tho distribution of bacon to tho overflowed ns actively pro gressing. It was being distributed only to negroes—no whites making applica tion. The form of petition required was probably framed with an eye to excluding from tho distribution any man who was unwilling to swear (in a suggestive way) that he was a tmfferor by tho overflow and could not live without souio of the bacon. The following is the form of tho petition : Hon. Holland Thompson. Commissioner: Your petitioner respectfully represents that he (or sin*) is a resident of Beat No. —, county of •Montgomery, in proximity to the overflowed lauds. JVtilioner fur ther represents thnt he is in destitute condition, and is compelled, by necessity, * to ask assistance of tho Government. The Advertiser says that hosts of ne groes who presented this petition did not live within fifty miles of a river that overflowed. A Dastardly Outrage.—Tho Augusta Chronicle of Friday gives particulars of the murder of two negroes iu Columbia county, yesterday reported by telegraphic dispatch. If the accounts given by the Chronicle are true, tho negroes were mur dered in cold blood, without causo or provocation, and it »« hard to account for the brutality exhibited on any other sup- position.than that the white men were mad dened by liquor. It is proper to say. however, that tho only report at hand is that made by a negro man, who says that he was forced to go with the whites in their search for the negroes who had sto len the cotton. Not finding them at a a negro house which they visited, they fired at and killed an old negro man who opened the door for them and stood with the door bar in his hand, which they might have taken for a gnu. No reason whatever is given for their shooting tho woman—wife of the negro man who gives the account. The Chronicle says : “The citizens of Columbia county are very indignant at tho uu’rage. They con demn such proceedings in the most un measured terms and are determined to ferret out the perpetrators and bring them to justice. Measures will be taken to so- cure their arrest as soou as possible. It is thought by many persons that they arc not citizens of the couuty, but come from a distance." THE UVAOWXED BOND*. Home of tho papers are calling for an extra session of the Georgia Legislature to amend the nineudiucut of the State Constitution, now pending, in reference to tho bogus bonds. It is said that the amendment is ho worded as not to innlud over five millions of dollars of tho bonds which the Legislature intended to he eluded. Gen. Toombs made this charge in his late speech nt Atlanta, and Major Hillyor, who drew np tho amendment res olution, admitted it, but said that he wrote tho amendment hastily while tho Legislature was acting on tho subject, and did not discover its defect. The amend ment, as udopted by the Legislature at its last session, repudiates the “Bullock en dorsed railroad bonds," but thero are other issues of bonds not covered by this de scription, and which the Legislature con detuned as “bogus.” There were $ 1,500,- 000 iii bonds endorsed by Treasurer An- gier ; $l,ffiK),000 lithographed bonds of Bullock’s, gotten up haHtily for immediate ami temporary use, for which $1,800,000 of engraved bonds were afterwards issued, but both issues were kept by Clews «V C<£( ami $000,000 of the Macon &. Brunswick Railroad bonds not embraced iu the report of the Bond Committee. The orror charged and admitted is a ii ions one—-the result of precipitato leg islation. \Ve have, however, a condem nation of all the bonds mentioned bv leg islative investigation and action. This action and the general concurrence of the people iu it afford assurance, we think, that the bonds unintentionally b ft out of the amendment will not soon bo assumed by any Legislature. \Vo doubt whether there will lie twenty representatives in the ilex* Legislature in favor of their pay ment. Tho proposition to assume them is too unpopular for upon advocacy even by the Radical party. This being tho case, we hc-o no necessity for precipitancy in tho mode of correcting an error caused by previous precipitate action. This is a kind of legislation of Hindi a peculiar character as to call for calm, deliberate and intelligent action ; and oven if the Legislature could now ho convened and have time to net on the subject during tho brief remnant of its existence, such hasty action in an extraordinary session might be regarded with suspicion outside of the Btnto. Tennessee.--There is olio Bout hern State, at least, in which tho Radicals are making u square tight for the Civil Rights hill. That State is Tennessee, in which Horace Maynard tins been nominated the Radical candidate for Governor, *and a resolution in favor of “civil rights" adopted. In tho Congressional Districts, however, the Radical candidates uro plac ing the same dodging game that they nro attempting iu Georgia and Alabama. Wo have string hopes for an almost unani mous Democratic delegation to Congress from Tenuosaoo, and wo feel confident of a Democratic niajoritv of not less than 25,000 for the State tiekeb tOl,.

When his report is received, I will give you • a more definite answer, or have tho Attorney General do so. I will state, however, that it is very gratifying to know that the State authorities of Tennessee ore disposed to suppress and punish a class of lawless acts, so dangerous to life, nml so opposed to every politics], financial and moral interest of tho State. The constitution makes il my duty to enforce the acts of Congress, and Con- gie.ss has passed laws giving the United States jurisdiction in such cases ns aro referred to in your dispatch. No special order has been given to the Federal officials in Tennessee further than the circular of September 3 1, of tho At torney General, which is general in its nature, and contains instructions to all Marshals and District Attorneys, wherever violations of said acts may occur. I will add that the Slate ami Gofiernl Government**, as you are well aware, may have concurrent jurisdiction over the same offense, as, for example in cus s of coun terfeiting, and tho action of the State mi llionths in such cases docs not prevent the General Government from proceeding against the offenders.
