HENRY It. HARRIS, of Meriwether.
Gen. SnEMDAN is reported as Haying
that Kellogg, of Louisiana, “hasn’t soul
enough in him to ballast a bumble-bee.'
Tiie Picayune r.ij'h that there are more
than $500 in counterfeit nickleH pnt into
the Now Orleans car boxes every month,
and yet in the last fivo years there have
been only three convictions for making
and passing this counterfeit coin.
The New York Herald pnta this perti
nent query : “Why is it that citizens of
Shreveport are arrested for promising not
to employ any one voting the Radical
ticket at the next election, and yet many
employees of the Custom House and Post
Offiep are compelled to vote the Radical
ticket for fear of losing their positions ?”
In the Women’s Congress at Chicago,
tho other day, Mrs. Livermore made a de
cided hit at tho cause of much of tho ex
travagance of the day, by declaring that
it was the result of femiuine ignorance of
tho value of money-; that “a woman who
oarnod her own money would not be like
ly to pay $200 fora lace handkerchief.”
The Now York Daily bulletin states
that the trado suspensions in that city
within the last two or threo weeks aggre
gate nearly $ff,250,0(Ht. Fully two-thirds
of these liabilities are connected with
houses in tho foreign trade, some as ex
porters and others as importers, whilo the
remainder belongs to housos in tho dry
goods jobbing trado.
Tiie Eclipse.—We again remind our
readers that a total eclipse of the Moon is
calculated for to-night. It will begin
about midnight, and last until near day
light Hunday morning, being total bo-
tween half-past 1 and 2 o’clock. As the
Moon will Ijo near the meridian at mid
night, tho positions of the threo bodios
will bo vory favorable for an impressive
spectacle.
The reported disaffection of ticuntoi
Morton towards Gen. Grant’s administra
tion receives corroboration from an edito
rial of tho Indianapolis Journal, Rad.
Tho Journal believes that Gen. Grant
wunls n third torm, and declares that ho
could not bo ro-oloctod, and furthermore,
that it would not bo a good thing for purot
politics if he could bo. It iH refreshing
to find a paper devoted to Morton solici
tous about “pure politics.”
The Griflln News gives an account of
the destruction by firo, on Wedmsday
morning, of Mr. Jos. II. Johnson’s gin
house, with over twouty bales of cotton,
mostly in tho soud. Several horses and
other farm animals, a largo quantity of
corn, oats and forage in tho barn con
ncotod with tho gin houso, and about two
huadrod cords of wood were also burned.
Tho loss was about $5,000, and the in-
suruiico only #l,7<>0. The fire is believed
to lmvo boon tho work of - an incendiary.
The News reports Jell. Long as saying
m his speech at Albany, that “there was
a clause in tho Civil Rights bill which
would enable tho mixed broods to eutor
tho courts us legitimates uud sue for heir
ships to their father's property.”
Jeff, is a mulatto. Tho snuio idoa
seems to^have occurred to many others of
bis complexion, for Williams (black), of
Eufaula, dodarod in bis Into speech in
Girard, that negroos of mixed blood
favored social eqnulity, but “real simou
puro uogroos” did not want it.
Wo cannot find any such clause in the
Civil Rights bill as passed by tho Senate.
The trial of tho “safe burglary case”
was commenced in the Criminal Court of
Washington City on Tuesday. Nottle-
ship did not appear, and his bond was
forfeited. Harrington and Wilburns ap
peared and announced themselves ready
for trial. Tho infamous Wbitoly appear
ed, but bis counsel immediately began to
skirmish for delay. First a plea in abate
ment was filed, and that being overruled,
a motion for a continuance was made,
which was supported by nu affidavit sot
ting forth that several witnesses who
would tOftify to material fuels were ab-
sont, but the court refused to grant a con
tinnanco. A point was then raised as to
tho legality of the Grand Jury which
found the indictment, upon which argu
ment was heard, and the court rosorvod
its decision.
Samuel Vabneb, colored, publishes a
card in tho Eufaula News, in which he
gives his ruco the moat sensible advice
that wo have noticed from a colored man.
Ho advises them to join him in leaving
tho towns and going into tho oouutry,
whore they can mako an honest living on
the farms; to abstain from elections about
which they know nothing, uud devote
their attention to the improvement of
their pocuuiary condition. Saiu is right.
Loafing about the towns will never im
prove tho negroes in any respect, and
there is never a lack of work and com
fortable living in the couutry. Some
whites might ndvantagooiiBly take Sam’s
advicb also.
A special Washington dispatch of the
llHk to tho New York Keening Dost (Re
publican) says that immediately upouGcu.
Grant’s return to Washington a strong
pressure w ill be brought to boar to induce
him to declare that ho will not accept a
third term. Tho dispatch says that the
current against a third term has set in so
strongly that \t in confidently believer
that l'rusidenl Grant will effectually si
leuce all further agitation of this quostion
l»y an authoritative statement or lett«
Boon after his return from the West, lie
is expected to return iu the coursq of two
or threo days.
Evidently the New York Radical politi
cians are determined to have a declaration
Against a third term from Gov. Dix, un
less Gen. Grant quickly takes this course.
They fear that liix’s declaration at this
late day will not much help his cause, but
hope that a public ileelnution by Gruut
Will save them many votes.
TIIE FAIR - Wt'.nxr.KtlAY.
In the absence of a letter from our cor
respondent, wo cull some item*: concern
ing tho State Fair, on Werlne-day, from
the Atlanta papers. It wus attended by a
mncli larger crowd than on cither of the
previous days. Tho estimates of people
on the grounds varied from 15,000 to 2;»,-
000. The receipts from tho sale of tick
ets were estimated at about $10,000. One
train on the W. A A. Railroad carried HdO
people to the Fair. 9
The loading incidents of the day wore
the Military contest and the exercises in
tho speed ring. Tho competitors for the
Military premium were the Oglethorpe
Guards, of Augusta; tho Jonesboro’ Zou
aves; the Fulton Blue*, of Atlanta; the
Governor’s Guard's, of Atlanta, and the
Atlanta Cadets. The first prize, amount
ing to $500, was awarded to the Ogle
thorpe Guards; the Atlanta Cadets re
ceived the second prize, $250, and the
Governor’s Guards the third prize of
$125, The drilling of all the companies
was very fine, and tho contest so close
that the awards were made with difficulty
The first contest in tho speed ring was
a rnnning race, two-mile heats, best two
in three. There were four ontries: J. 8.
A. Crawford, of Chattanooga, cutcred a
grey horse, Toni Crawford; Major Linn,
of Csrtersville, entered bay mare, Quar
tette ; J. W. Crawford, of Augusta, enter
ed a bay Vandal colt, unnamed ; Thos. G.
Bacon, of Houth Carolina, entered (Jran
ger. Tho Utter won iu two straight heats,
mo—3:51, 3:58$. The purso was $200.
The contestants in tho plowing match
were Geo. Watt, of ltichmoud, Va.; A.
A. Simmons, of LaFnyetde, Ga ; David
Nicholls, of Cobb county; G. C. Huff, of
Atluuta; F. A. Logan, colored, of Atlanta.
After a consultation of tho judges on the
merits of the difforeut plowmen, they
awarded tho first prize to David Nioholls,
of Cobb county.
THE CONTEST OF TIIE UABNKSH HOUSES.
This contest took place in the ring at
two o’clock. Tho premiums woro offered
for tho best gelding or mare, $100; for
the second best, $50. Tho judges were
Messrs. II. H. Feagin, of Macon; L. T.
Swanson, of LaGrauge; and J. 8. A.
Crawford. Homo twenty-fivo horses wore
entered. Among the most prominent
woro Basil Duke, by W. L. Crawford;
bay mare Ida, sired by John Dillard, and
a Mombrino marc by W. A. Hoskins, of
Chattanooga; sorrel horse, by T. J. Ald-
rieh, of Smyrna, Golddust breed; bay
horse, by F. A. Higgins, of Allan's; iron
gray horse Whisky, by 8. E. Black, of
Nashville.
Tho exhibition wns fine, and tho con-
tost close. Tho judges were a long time
coming to a decision, hnt finally gavo the
first prominm of $100 to Mr. Crawford
on Basil Duke, and tho second to W. A.
Hoskins on his bay mare Ida.
LOUISIANA.
A correspondent of the Now York Her
ald, writing from Now Orleans, 12th, has
the following to Hay concerning tho pros
pects of the two parties in Louisiana, uud
the probable results of a continuance of
Kellogg's rule:
“Notwithstanding tho assertions of the
whites that they have a majority of (ho
votes, and iu n fair election can elect
their ticket, I holiovc the Htalo will go
Republican next mouth by u larger major
ity than over. Every obstruction in some
parishes, I uni assured, is being thrown iu
tho way of whiles who nt.empt to register,
ami this will prevont tho polling of a full
white vote. Dining the past year there
has been an immense influx of blocks
from Tennessee and Mississippi who will
register and voto the Radical ticket as a
mutter of com so. It is believed that ful
ly 20,000 uogroos foreign to the State will
vote, who, two years ago, voted iu other
States. If this bo so 1 see no hope for a
Conservative victory, even if Kellogg
gives them 4 a fair election,'and the proseut
statu of anarchy uud depression of busi-
iiokn must inevitably continue unless Con
gress, on reassembling, promptly gives
sumo moBHure of relief. It' Congress fails
to do so, the Government must quarter a
standing army of C,000 or 8,000 men in
the State to keep tlieponco, else there will
bo a resort to the rifle and barricades with
every change of tho moon and the moods
of a pooplc driven to tho brink of desper
ation by the criminal neglect of the Gen
eral Government to guarantee them a re
publican form of government.”
We have noticed iu our Louisiana ex
changes, statements to tho sumu effect,
concerning the impediments thrown iu
tho way of the registration of the whites.
One officiul circular secretly soul out
from Now Orleans plainly instructed the
Radical Registrars to keep their books
open in tho towns as short a time as po.w-
sible, and to upon then at places in tho
couutry, nt times of which tho negroes
were to be previously informed, so us tc
register a full black voto. But, notwith
standing such impediments, tho whites
arc registering pretty generally. Iu Now
Orleans, where the negroes woro largely
ahead in the registration for some time,
the lists now claim tho names of about
25,000 whites and 15,000 negroes.
Tho iuoroAso of the negro voto by im
migration Biuce tho last election may he
aa largo as tho Herald'» correspondent
estimates. Bat that writer seems to take
no account of the divisions among tho
negroes now, and of tho cordial uuiou
and agreement for tho division of officers
between them and the white Democrats
in a number of parishes, exoludiug tho
Kellogg party from any placo on thei
tickets. Wo ffud reports of such ugreo-
in nearly every Now Orleans piper
received. The Democrats and Conserva
tives rely greatly upon a division of tho
negro voto, and tho Kellogg party evi
dently four it. The overruuniug of tho
8tuto by tho military is really design*
to break up this good fooling bet wee
tho Conservative whites and negroe
and to rally the negroes again under tho
lead of tho carpet-baggers. Upon its sue
cess or failure to do this, in our opinion,
a Democratic triumph in Louisiana de
pends.

The Albany Neics of Thursday says;
“Wo are painfully grieved to hear from
his physicians, that Hon. James II. Hun
ter, who was so brutally slabbed by a ne
gro at Quitman, on the day of election, is
past all hope of recovery. Indeed it is
quite probable that us we write his pure
soul is with its God.”
POLITICAL OPINION.
-Says tho New York Herald: “Faith
Southern outrages is tho tost of Re
publicanism in these days. If oue does
not believe that all tho white men are
shooting all tho darkies, tho Ropublicaus
if the puro blood say he is a Democrat.
This largely increases the number of tho
Democrats. ”
—Bloodshed and disturbance still mark
tho progress of tho canvass in LouiHiaqn,
but they are confined to struggles bo-
tween factions of the Republican party.
The colored citizens have been taught to
roly upon force and violonco in politics,
and have loarnod their lesson only too
well. Nevertheless there are cheering
features in this contest, and the fact that
in many cases tho colored voters join
hands with the whites in seeking reform,
is a suro sign of improvement.—N. Y.
Tribune.
—Tho St. Louis Times says that what
Alabama Radicals lack in troops they
make up in deputy marshals. Two-thirds
of the Republican party iu somo counties
havo boon sworn in for special service nt
tho polls ou election day. If with troops
and deputy marahals, a sufficient terror
ism cun not bo created to keep Democrats
from voting, tho South will be utterly
given over to hardness of heart.
Political Movements in the South.—
Tho United States marshals aud their
deputies in several of the Gnlf Htutos are
still rigorously hunting' up and running
down HUHpeoted sheriffs, refractory White
Leaguers and meu charged with Ku-klux
affiliations. Can it lie that Attorney Gen
eral Williams has not yet hoard of the
Iudiaua and Ohio elections, or does he
suppose that the working up of Southern
outrages will still serve ns political capital
iu New York aud Pennsylvania.—N. Y.
Herald.
Forney, of the Philadelphia Dress, gives
it up. Ho says there is no uso in con-
ceiling the fActthut tho Republican party
has met with serious disasters iu the
States of Ohio uud Iudiaua. We have
boou beateu, aud badly beatcu, iu both of
these great States. The Democrats have
carried their tickets by largely increased
majorities, aud made a total gain of
twelve Representatives. A proportion
ate gain iu the November eVootiona would
give tbom control of tho next Congress
by a two thirds majority.
A lively business in the way of arrests
is going on in Alabama, tho number of
warrants being reported as 500 to 800.
For a State that is peaceful and where no
disorders exist, this argues a lively im
agination ou tho. part of United States
Marshals aud the probability of grave iu-
justico to oitizons. If done for political
eff ect, it may provo a sword that euls
both ways.—New York Tribune.
