Thos. W. (Jr
Wm. y. Williams.
Tiie (’ol )red Democratic Club at Mont
gomery, Ala., now nmnberH eighty mem
bers, and accessions aro made at every
meeting. Every accession occasions a
loud Radical call for “more troops.”
At Shreveport, where the effects of
the drought on the Western cotton crop
are pretty well ascertained, estimates of
the amount of the crop run low. They
range from 3,250,000 *° 3,7(H).<)00 bales,
bnt few estimating higher than 8,300,000.
John Hyman, tho only Radical Con
gressman elect from North Carolina,
makes it n matter of coinplaint that he
was sold seven times while a slave. Very
well, John, you couldn't help that; but
mind that you do not sell yourself, or allow
Radical leaders to sell you, while in Wash
ington. That’s tho way to provo you
were wronged by former bondage.
Wp. learn from the Chattanooga 7Vm«
of Wednesday, that the citizens of that
place huvo held a meeting to make ar
rangements for the reception of Morton's
and Clayton's Republican Convention.
Committees on Arrangement, Reception,
Entertainment. Ac., have been appointed.
With refreshing consistency for a conven
tion of its character, different committees
of reception fur white and colored dele
gates wero appointed, and separate accom
modations for llioin aro to bo provided !
Tin. New Orleans DCni/unr of Wednes
day, noticing tho resignation of Judge
Atocha, sins that ho has always been up
right and faithful in the di charge of his
duties, and gild*: “We only express a
prevalent sontiiuonl when wo suggest that
Judge Alo ha's resignation at this partic
ular time means that the Superior Crimi
nal Court is about tube devoted to pro
ceedings wherein his honor as u Louisi
anian and his feelings as a gentleman will
not allow him to participate.”
Virginia is getting ahead of Georgia in
tho contest for tho very oldest person.
The Dost mast or at New Store, Rocking
ham county, communicates to the Rich
mond Dispatch some facts concorhing
Harry Spencer, a colored man who died
on the tltli inst., which prove him to have
been at least 1*21 years of age. Ha re
membered Hconns and events of 17(53, and
said that he was then ton years old. Ah
long ago as 1843, ho and his wife, being
considered two old to v.o’.. wor** let out
by their master to He •! vouUl
support them foi tho least mouey, and
they wore taken at #100 a yonr. Spon
cor's wife is still living, and bids fair, it ia
said, to attain the years of her husband.
Judge Wm. M. I3yri>, whose death by a
railroad deadfall is reported, was a prom
inent politician in Alabama as long ago us
1862 ’3. He then lived in Marengo coun
ty, and vej resented it in tho Legislature
as n Union member during tho sectional
excitement of that period. He was then
a man of 1 irgo* moans and liberal hand.
He was a good debater; but it was chietly
by his courto«y aud gentlemanly deport
ment and his wise and conservative views
in private consultation, that ho acquired
his influence, which was probably as great
as that of any other member of tho Legis
lature. Ho was a Hue lawyer, a pure and
incorruptible man, and his record, though
uot so brilliant r.s some, is as creditable
and unsullied us any of Alabama's best
aud most useful citizens
We knew his worth, prized his friend
ship aud conildcnce in the bettor days of
Alabama, and deplore his death.
Railroad connections have revolution
ized tho cotton transportation of Shrove,
port, La., as we learn from tho Times
oomtnoroi.il urticlo of tho 17th inst. It
Staten that tho river is now too low for
navigation, hut that tho riilroad charges
ou cotton to New Yoik and Huston aro at
present lower than they ever wero by
wator transportation. Tho railroad rate
is $1.30 per hundred p muds to New York
aud $1 36 to Boston, or $6.86(3)0 07 per
bale, respectively. By water it was $(5.40
@7 37 per hale ; but it should lie home iu
mind that water transportation from
Shreveport to the North is very long aud
circuitous, while railroad transportation
is nearly as direct as it cau bo made.
It is probable that New Orleans will
lose most of tho upper Red river cotton by
this diversiou.
BLOCK THEIR liAMK.
The Kadicul party throughout the South
is utterly demoralised. We need not par
ticularize the agencies, further than to
say that the Civil Rights agitation haa
driven off fully one-half of ita white
leaders in the negro counties, and stam
peded most of its lank and file in the
white comitiee. Then there is distrust
aud jealousy betweeu (he carpet-bag and
native office-seeker^, and the negroes are
assuming an independence incompatible
with the strict party discipline that has
heretofore been kept up.
Wo see evidences of this demoralization
in the failure to nominate candidates of
their own in many counties heretofore
either carried or closely contested by the
Radicals; in the frequent withdrawal of
their candidates after they have been
brpnght out; in the many stubborn con
tests in their nominating conventions,
frequently ending in tho nomination of
men who wero not proposed until the
conventions met, and whose election is
not contemplated, even if desired by the
party. Compared with the thorough or
ganization of the party up to 1872, the
morale of the Southern Radical party at
this time in simply that of a discordant
and quarrelsome mob.
The party has no hojte of success iu a
fair election, and this is the secret of the
anxiety of tho leaders to get up such a
condition of things in the Sooth an will
afford a pretext for L’ongresnional inter
ference in our State affairs and the choioo
of Representatives for us by Congress.
We warn our Democratic and Conserva
tive friends that this is the game. To sys
tematize operations in accordance with
this plan is the object of the Chattanooga
Convoution. l'owell Clayton, one of the
prime ooncoctors of the scheme, has late
ly declared iu a public speech that the
Southern States, under Democratic rule,
have no republican governments such as
Congress is bound to guarantee, and that
they ought all to be overthrown by Fedo
ra! intervention. Sentiments very simi
lar have lately been uttered by Senator
Morton, another chief conspirator, aud by
Ben Butler. These men are doing their
host to “Are the Northern heart” up to
tho heat uoeded for the commission of
this great outrage, and wo have the expe
rience of the past to show us what they
can do in this regard when their party
in dauger of defeat.
The plan of operations now is, first, to
make at Chattanooga a glaring and false
report of innumerable outrages on the po
litical rights of Radicals at the South,
and next to pretend that they were afraid
to vote, and the Democrats carried the
elections by intimidation. It ia chiefly to
put our friends on their guard against
this trick that wo call their attention to
this matter. Let them carefully avoid
giving the Radicals the least pretext to
charge intimidation. Kvcu if we desired
to intimidate anybody, there is not the
least need for it. The Radical party can
not heat us at the ballot box this year, if
wo nil vote and stand up to our tickets,
as we believe we will. Hut they can heat
us in Congress if wo allow them any pro
text for appeuliug to thnt body. Lot ev
ery Democrat, therefore, while firm iuthe
maintenance of his own rights and that of
his party, ho careful not to play into the
hands of tho Radicals by any aot or word
that- cau he construed into a menace.
Let the Radicals bluster and agitate as
they will; until they make an notual eg
gresMon upon tho whites let them have
rope. Wo need no longer dread the par
ty we have to contend with at home, but
rather the despotism at Washington,
which we can only cirmuuvout by con
duct that will frustrate the most infam
ous plot jot concocted to deprive the
white people of the South of their politi
cal rights.

The exploits of Busterd'a rowdy gang
at Union Springs, Ala., havo been fol
lowed up pretty closely m Georgia. Ou
Monday evening, nt'Sav.iuiuh, the Radi
cal Kupportcis of Jesio Wimberly for
Congress wore in tko rudest aud most
outrageous ma '.nor deprived of their po
litic d ‘Tights’* by i’> yatit’s post-ofUco aud
custom-hous * employes. Tho meeting
was called hy tin- friends of Wimberly,
aud the call invited only those opposod to
the ©lection of J. K. Bryant. Wimberly
and Tunis G. Campbell, negro, were aunouu- I
cedas thq,speakers. But Bryants fricuds, j
hosde.l by official* of tho custom-house
and post-office, took povsesdou of tho
meeting by concert, i hey crowded tho
supporters of Wimberly oft the stand,
rnado a post-offi.'o clerk chairman, aud
two custom-house officials secretaries.
Having gotten full poHstssiou of the
meeting they let Witubt r’y make his
speech, and then culled up Deveaux, one :
of their own faction, to reply to him.
They would not lot Campbell speak at all,
hooting aud yelling at him so vocifer
ously that he finally became demoralized
and reli»ed. Duriug tho uproar made iu
trying to prevent ( ampbell s speech, a
negro threw a rock into the crowd, aud it
struck Mr. Charles Mullette, who was
only a quiet spectator, in tho eye, giving
him a painful Vound

On Huturday, betweeu ten and eleven
a. m., a full meoting of Columbus Grange
of tho Patrons of Husbandry will be held,
to whioh every actual member and visiting
brother is invited. The place of meeting
has been ohauged to the hall of the Hook
aud Ladder Company, adjoiuing the
Opera House. Matters of great impor
tance are to be considered, and every
member is requested—we wish we could
•ay “ordered”—to be present. It is cu
rious that tho oountry Granges are away
ahead of this half-dead-and-alive city
affair, aud the fact shows that tho only
people who can throw their whole souls
into this grand movement are those
wholly engaged in agriculture. Come
out oue and all, and let us have a live
meeting. A number of well-known speak
ers will be on baud, ready to toil all they

We love peace, domestic, national and

Saturday next the white banners will take

meeting of great importuuce will be held
ou Saturday next, at 10 a. m.. at the

New Orleans is now literally garrisoned
aud euvironed by Federal troops aud ves
sels of war. There were twenty-four oooi-
panics of infautry, cavalry and artillery,
there ou Mouday, and since that time
three more companies have arrived—three
companies that fought Oaptaiu Jack in
tlio Lava Bods. Tho Picayune, of Wed
nesday, said that half of the Federal navy
would be there that morniug, and it main
tains that a squad of ten United States
troops would have accomplished the work
of subjugatiou just as quickly and thor
oughly as all this vast military array’

—Tbe only mention of (he caterpillar
that we have seen for a fortnight or more
is made by tbe Talbotton Standard of
Wednesday. It reports that they are eat
ing the leaves from the cotton on the plan
tation of Mr. Bruosford in the valley.
We have received the first number of
the Messenger, a paper just established at
Cuthbert. It supports Tutulin for the
Legislature, and olaims that he is the leg-
alar Democratic nominee ! But it is a
neat paper, and is edited in a sprightly
manner by Jos. T. Kiddoo.
—We learn from tbe Hparta Times that
the Democrats of Hancock have nomi
nated Messrs. John L. Culver and J. R.
Binion for (he Legislature. Mr. Binion
takes tbe place of Hon. George F. Pierce,
Jr. Mr. Culver was a member of the last
General Assembly.
—Mr. B. O. Keatou, one of the oldest
and most respected citizens of Dougherty
county, died last week, aged 70 years.
He was a representative in the Legisla
ture from Baker county in 1842, and
served nineteen months iu the army dur
ing the late civil war, participating in
the first battle of Manassas.
—Allen McCoy was killed by Moses
Ferguson, in the vulley of Talbot county,
ou Monday night. Both were colored.
Ferguson claims that his wife and McCoy
had taken lessona from Brooklyn, which
he could not endure as patiently as Theo
dore did, and therefore he shot McCoy
with a doubled-barrelled gun.

—In spite of Judge Keil's exertions,
there are now tweuty-four negroes iu the

white person.
—In DeKalb the Radioal party is so de
moralized that it made no nomination, al
though heretofore it has stoutly contend
ed for the control of the county in evory

—Judge Keils is on a judicial rampage
still. He went out to Clayton lost Satur
day to let a lot of negroes charged with
burglary and house burning out of jail.
He reduced their bonds at once to an in
significant sum, but even these they were
unable to give, so they are still iu limbo.
—We learn from the Montgomery Ad
vertiser that the negroes are stealing large
quantities of oorn and cotton from the
fields at night, and that some of them
have been arrested and '‘released on their
own reeoguizauoe.” Of course that put
an end to their stealing!
—What is called the “Russell wing” of
the Radical party of Haibour county, has
nominated another full ticket for county
officers. W. M. Russell is tbe nominee
for Probate Judge, Frank Russell for

their uurnher, T. McRae aud Bob McKay,
have armed and organized themselves for
the purpose of preveutiug the other ne
groes of that commuuity from picking
out cotton at tho preseut rates they aro
receiving. They have posted notices to
that effect, forbidding, uuder heavy pen
alties, auy negroes violating these uotices,
aud in some instances bands of them have
appeared and driven from the fields those
who had presumed to pick at fifty cents
per hundred. They dernaud seventy-five
cents, und this is the means they have
taken to euforco the demand.
