AM EDITION.
On or about the first of November noil
we propose to iasne an edition of tkn
thousand extra papers dovoted to a de
scription of Columbus and her interests.
This edition will bo well printed, and each
paper will contain thirty-six columns of
roading matter, with no display advertis
ing. Our object is, first, to advertise
Oolumhus and the Enquiuku, and, second,
to give acoinploto and full lint of all our
factories, founderis, mills, warehouses,
wholesale and retail houses, banks, insur
ance companies, professions, and every
thing pertaining to our city, including a
history and a full recital of its ovory ad
vantage. A fair encouragement and wo
will make tho edition twenty thousand.
This will involve a heavy expenso, which
it would ho unjust for one man, and ho a
poor one, to hear. We therefore proposo
tho following: For every sqiinro of read
ing put in about oaeh individuals
business we will charge one dol
lar, and givo him ten copies of
this paper, to mark and send away.
To those taking fivo HquuroH for five
dollars, wo will givo one hundred pa
pers, and in tho Hatue proportion for
any desired space, By this plan the
extra edition will bo well distributed and
pooplo at a distance be enabled to get
good idea of Columbus. We want to have
our city talked about. Should ten thous
and copies he taken in this way we
will issuo an additional ten thousand, nnd
besides sending a copy to each subscriber,
we will forward ono to every live paper,
oorpnrntoiu, factory nnd moneyed interest
in the whole country where it will d<
good.
Our agents will make it a point to call
on every business man in tho city, wheth
er ho ever advertised or not, nnd enlist
him in tho eifort wo nro making to cnil
nt taut ion to the superior claims of o
city. G.
The platforms of both tho Democratic
and Undionl parties in Indiana declared in
favor of “ii.ilation”—Senator Morton be
ing nil infiation lender. In Ohio tho Dem
ocrats pronounced in favor of more curren
cy and the payment, of the hotidHin groon-
hucks; the Itudicals for tho opposite poli
cy. Yet in both Slates tho Demoorats
wore signally successful. The results go
to allow that this issuo does not much uf-
feet party organizations. m»«l »!•*»* tho |*o<»-
ple of the country nro bent on making
another fight under their old party ban-
A Hurd Choice.
We have soon a letter from agmilleinnn
in South Carolina, addressed to his brother
in this city, from which wo make tho fol
lowing extract:
“Wo all have to bn Uads, ns tho two
candidates for Governor nro both Kails,
uiu] the two running for Congress in this
District nro both lvmls, also. Now, please
tell me how to vote. Of the two fellows
for Congress, tho ono is Daddy Cain, a
coal-black negro, and tho other a white
nmn from tho North, with a carpet-bag.
The latter came round hero, went to a ne
gro frolic, nnd danced w ith tho negro girls.
Now, please tell mo which to vote for.
Tho negro can’t help being n negro, and
1 reckon ho is tho best cbauco.”
Wo reckon that tho ehoico which this
South Carolina Democrat intimates his in
tention of making is tho best—proydod
there is no chance to elect u sure enough
white man. Wo say take tho negro ovory
time in preference to such a character ns
he describes.
Third Term Sentiment.
Tho New York lie raid, of Thursday,
tills considerably more than « page with
u succinct statement of the opinions of
onoh Cabinet officer and member of Con
gress upon the question of a third term
for Gen. Grant. Wo cannot say whether
its information is roliablo, but it is posi.
tivo in its report of tho position of each
person named.* Tho Cabinet ia reported
•ah non-committal, except that Socrotary
Koboson is sure General Grant, does not
want a third term. Of Congressmen, it
puts down in tho Senate for the third
term 24; trimmers, 21; together, 4.'
agaiust third term, 2ff. In tho House, for
third term, 78; trimmers, 105; together,
1M ; against third term, 117. By trim
mers the lit raid meting to iudicato those
l*)u> have no opinions. Every lvadical
Congressman from Georgia is represented
to be in favor of the third term, and every
Democrat against it except Mr. Stephens,
who is put down as “a trimmer.” Soc-
tioimlly, it is claimed that tbo Southern
ttepublicauH favor the third term, whilo
the East opposes it, and the West and
Middle States are divided.
The Savannah Advertiser gives puhlici
ty to a simple scheme which Bryant has
concocted for carrying Chatham county.
A posse of two hundred Deputy Marshals
will bo placed on duty at the polls the day
of election, with instructions to bring on
a collision if possible. When this occurs
the colored-voters will retire in a body,
doclarc that they were prevented from
voting, and Bryant will contest tho elec
tion on tbo ground of “forco and fraud,
etc.”
No doubt this game will bo played in
and wo are well aware of bis standing and
character. There ia no man in Alabama
farthor above (be suspicion of any act of
violence or injustice. His whole life has
been ono of pence nnd the most gantle-
mauly consideration of the rights of oth
ers. He is a nephew of the Into Hon.
George E. Badger, of Ualeigh, N. C , ono
of tho greatest lawyers and ucutest intel
lects of his day, and tinder his tuition ho
could have learned nothiug o’so than tho
profoundeHt respect for law and the most
honorable deportment towards his fol
low-men. Ho may l>o accused of some
offence against tho Enforcement act by
the purchased oaths of depraved negroes,
lmt tbore is not n man who knows him
whoso faith in his innocence will bo there
by shaken.
The system of espionage nnd tyranny
which hns boon instituted in Western A1
nbama is abhorrent to all our American
ideas of personal liberty and freedom of
political opinion. There is no other on-
lightened government on oirtli that would
rosort to it. Wo have now hoforo
long letter to tbo Now York Tribune, da
ted Livingston, Huintor coun’y, Ala., Oct.
8th, written by its special correspondent
sent to Alubama to investigate reported
Ku-Klux outrages. Tho writer is a ltc-
pnhliom, lilco tho paper for which ho cor
responds. Ho tolls something about De
tective Hester, tho man whom Wetmoro
is charged with “conspiring to injure.
According to his report, Hosier, acting
socrotly as a Government detective, has
boon doing nil that ho could to excite tho
wbito pooplo against tho negroes and tho
carpet-baggers, liberally using persuasion
and i-pple brandy to fire thorn up to tho
commission of “outrages” which ho might
report! This correspondent writes
“Messrs. Hester and Bench, an they told
me, oamo into Bumter county about three
weeks ago, disguised as tobacco poddlors
from North Carolina. Hester, in th
performance of his duties ns n detcctivi
joined tbo Kn-Klux in 18(1!) or 1870, and
learned thoir signs, pass words, A
Whon tho two started out on this expud
tioii from Demopoliu, which is about 25
miles from hero, they hud a regular North
Carolina wagon, and besides the tobnen
which they sold, carried some Old Norik
State apple brandy, with which they
•treated their friends and customers.
Hester made use of the Ku Klux signs,
and says they were recognized by a groat
many men whom they uiot. Everywhere
they went they cursed tho “niggers" and
white Republicans, boasted how they
treated such cattle in North Carolina, and
advisod tho murdor of them all.
“Homo men whom thoy filled protiy full
at their upplo brandy responded to their
boasts. Sumter county, they claimed,
know how to do these things us well
the North Cnrolina Ku-Klux, mid tho
sassination of Billings and Ivoy was citod
in proof. As far as 1 could learn, no man
With whom they talked so confidentially
evor admitted that ho was personally
present when either of those men was
killed, but tho detectives say that a great
many woro anxious to have a share of tho
honor.”
Tho same dispatch that reported tho ar
rest of NYctiuoro staled that Dotootivo
Jfestor had had a Sheriff’s posse of about
fifty men arrested. Tho Tribune's cor
respondent tells us about the difficulty out
of whitih these arrests grow also. Hester
exhibited to him nil anonymous letter
which ho said a uogra named Boh Reid
(a mombor of the Legislature) had re
ceived through the postofilco. The letter
warned him not to mnko any inoro speech
es, and advised him to loavo tho county—
just such a lottor as ire might suppose a
man who could givo people upplo brandy
and thou advise them to kill negroes
mid he capable of writing. It terrified
Reid, or he pretonded to bo torrified, and
ho gathered together armed bands of no-
grocs to protoot him nt night, nnd kept
up this military demonstration so long
that the whites in turn became
alarmed and called upon tho Sheriff
to disperse the negroes. Ho gathered a
posse and started for Belmont where tho
nog roes woro ouoamped, and when they
hoard of his coming thoy lied. Thore was
not a gun tirod—not a man was hurt—and
a Radical meeting was hold that very duy
in Boluiout nnd not interfered with. For
this Rtrictly legal proceeding in tho dis
charge of their duty to keep tho poaoe,
the Shoriff and his porno have boon ar
rested. It was either for this procoodinj
or for a precisely similar ono in tho north
ern part of tho county, by which Warren
Dennis’ gang woro dispersed without in
jury to any ono, that they wore nrrostod.
The Tribune's correspondent tells ol
tho attempts made l>y Radical loadoifc of
Montgomery to prevent him from going
to Bumter and contiguous counties, which
nro ouough of themselves ’to satisfy any
candid man that they knew the falsehood
of tho charges made against tho whites of
that sootion of tho State, were advised of
tho plot to arrest and punish them wrong
fully, and did not want tho game exposed.
Wo copy from his letter :
“It will bo useless for you to go over to
Sumter or Greene or Choctaw
or Marengo county,” said almost
every Republican whom I met
in Montgomery last week. ‘-If tin* Dem
ocrats know who you are they’ll convince
you that every thing is quiet, that there is
no reign of terror, and that the reports,
which wo assure you nro us well authenti
cated as any reports cau bo, are wholly
without foundation."
“Then I’ll go incog.,' was my reply.
“If you do that, they’ll all suspect you
of being a detective or a,iloputy marshal,
aud they wou't talk to you. Tho best
thing for you to do is to sue l». N. Mar
shal Ilealy’s two deputies, Randolph and
Williford, who have been up in Sumter
county aiul cau toll you all about it, and
then go down to Mobile and attend the
examination of tho prisoners, who will bo
taken thoro tho first of the week."
In shyrt, I wan advised not to make this
having a large majority of negro voters,
but they have shown a strong disposition
to free themselves from tho control of
bite Radical loaders. There was a special
election for a Senator in the comity, some
tirno after the last general election, ami a
great many negroes voted for the Demo-
candidate, electing him by n iarge
majority. Something had to ho done which
would at once terrify the whites and
whip the negroes hack into the Radical
ranks, and wo boo in tlieso proceedings
how it is being dono.
Tho whito men of Alabama will go
down in disgrace if they aro not aroused
to greater exertion and determination by
tlieso high-handed measures. A people
who can bo crushed or discouraged in that
way aro not worthy of political froodom.
Bat wo know that they are rousiug and
organizing fur such a robuko as will mnko
their persecutors rno tho day when they
resorted to such proceedings.

Tho New Orleans Picayune of Friday
gives a report of an interview with an
ngc-nt of the European holders of South
ern State bonds, now in its city. This
agent informs tho Picayune, that the
bondholders whom he represents hold
over £200,000,000 in bonds, which ho
authorized to settle. Ho lias already set
tled with the Governors of Alabama, Vir
ginia, South Carolina, North Carolina and
Arkansas, nnd nothiug now is required
but notion by. S‘ate Legislatures to ratify
th* agreements. The basis of the settle
ment is that tho foreign holders of bonds
agree to lund the debt of tbo several
States, principal and interest, nnd extend
tho debt for twenty yearn at four
or five per cent, interest per annum.
He informs mo (says tho reporter)
that ho is prevented from settling the
$24,000,000 debt of this State, owing to
the fact that thore is no government hero
with which to fsottle. If there was ft gov
ernment. with which to negotiate tho do
mestic nnd foreign debt of tho State, by
extending it thirty years from January,
1875 or 1870, nml accepting new funded
bonds bearing four per cent, interest, this
would require Louisiana to pay but $10,-
000 or $17,000 year interest on her
total debt. It is believed that Tennessee
will settle on tho same basis.
The amounts already settled are : Vir
ginia $01,000,000, South Cnrolina about
$lo,ooo,(MK), North Carolina $20,000,000,
Arkansas about $8,500,000, and Alabama
$8,000,000.
Tho agent assorts that at live per
cent, interest on the debt n tax of
two mills on tho dollar of taxable prop,
erty will in sixteen years free any of the
Stales of thoir present indebtedness. The
draft of a bill to bo submitted to all tho
State Legislatures to confirm tho settle
ment lias boon prepared in London nnd
has been approved by tho Governors of
