UKMWHATIC NOMINATION.
fob conobess—foubth district,
HENRY It. HARRIS, of Meriwether.
The New York Herald, of Saturday, in
an article reviewing the questions that
throw shadows across the political canvass
in its State, says : “But no shadow comes
to Tilden from the southward. Tales of
revolution, Ku-klux, another rebellion,
have no effect in this canvass." Alas for
the lying conspirators of Alabama !
Tub Montgomery Journal of yesterday
says: “Wo learn from the quarantine
policemen who ride upon the trains on
the Mobile 4 Montgomery Railroad, that
the reports which come to Pollard are
that the yellow fever has become more
virulent at Pensacola, and a great many
are down with it, and that several have
died.” ^ ^
The Now York Ghbe says that Presi
dent Grant has $50,000 stock in the lie
public., the new Radical daily in New
York. The Republic was started because
the Tribune and Times were not as un
scrupulously “Republican" as the party
desired, and especially because they
wouldn't run Southern “outrages" with
out inquiring whether they were true or
false. .
The negroes of the Seventh Assembly
District of No* York City held a meeting
on Saturday to consider the question of
nominating one of their raco for the Leg
islature. They claimed, not a majority
of votes in tho District, but that they
hold the balance of power between the
Radical and Democratic parties. A com
mitteo was appointed to naino a candi
date at the next mooting. Should they
run one, wo vonturo (he prediction now
that ho will not receive hnlf a dozen
white Radical votes.
Several Northern Radical papers re
ceived by ns this week—papers that have
heretofore been cither silent about tho
third terra or treated it ns a matter de
serving of no iminediuto attention—are
now outspoken against tho proposition to
run Gen. Grant for a third term. Tho
Ridtimoro American nnd Philadelphia
Bulletin are two of them. They discover
from tho tone of tho Washington Repub
lican that thero is little likelihood of Gen.
Grant’s putting n stop to the agitation of
tho question, and now they want to show
him plainly that it won't do for tho party.
The Philadelphia Preen, with much
hopeful assumption, figures out a prob
able Republican majority of 18 in the
next Fedora! House of Representatives.
In doing so, it concedes a Democratic
gain of only 14 in the Southern States,
and claims a Republican from Delaware.
But tho Philadelphia Bulletin (also Re
publican) Buys that it is safo to accopt tho
largest Democratic estimates of gains at
tho South; that tho prospect of olcctiug
a Republican in Delaware does not seem
hopeful to it; nnd tbnt “it is useless to
attempt to disguise the fact that tho Re
publican parly, for the first lime in four
teen yoars, is approaching a crisis in which
its title to tho supremo authority will he
seriously placed in jeopardy.”
The New Orleans Bulletin professes to
have information from Washington that
tho concentration of nuval forces at New
Orleans is not for tho purpose of aiding
tho military in their operations oguiust
tho whites in Louisiana, but to prepare
for probable hostilities with Spain. Its
information is that tho Government at
Washington has made a permuptoiy de
mand on Spain for pecuniary indemnifi
cation for the capture of tho Virginius,
and in the event of Spain’s refusal, the
naval force at Now Orleans will at ouco
move on Cuba. It is suggested that Oou.
Grant is admonished by the results of re-
cout elections that he must do something
extraordinaiy to revive tho popularity of
his Administration, oral tho taking of
Cuba is believed to bo just the thing.
We receive tho Bulletin’s information
with somo mistrust, but cousidor it worth
notice.
Tiie full registration of voters iu New
Orleans shows about 28,900 whites and
17,400 blacks. The New Orleaus papers
charge that tho registrars resorted to tricks
to prevent tho full registration of tho
whites on tho last day.
Returns from thirty-throe of tho coun
try parishes show tho registration iu the
of 28,178 whites and 42,398 blacks. Add
ing New Orleaus to these, the negroes are
about 2,000 ahead. In tho parishes not
heard from tho white and black popula
tions are Hourly oven. This makes it
probablo that tho lists will show a small
majority of registered negroes. But the
Conservatives claim that in New Orleans
alone, at least 2,000 fraudulent certificates
of registration were issued. They say
that they have found that one negro regis
tered fourteen times, and that ten had
registered as their residence a lot found
to be vacant. A special to the New York
Tribune says that “there are certainly
),0(H) negroes iu New Orleans alone who
belong to tho Conservative clubs and will
vote that ticket.’’

a pakruidk*
For several days we have refrained from
commenting on tho recent attempt of one
William T. Smith, of Mulberry Grove,
Harris county, Oa., to murder his father.
We waited in the hope of hearing that
this fiendish desperado and unnatural son
would bo nrreste 1 by the officers of the
iuw, and held for trial. But the down
right negligence of the authorities h.s
resulted in the continued freedom of tho
parricide. Wo are told by our corres
pondent “Justice," in yesterday’s issue,
the actual cause of tho quarrel; but, sup
posing “Justice" is mistaken, and that
tho old inau did correct his daughters,
and did desire their removal in order to
live peaceably with his second wife, would
it warrant the taking of his life by this
wretched non, whom ho raised, educated
aud tried to make a m»u V Out upon the
maudlin wretches who, dead to every senso
of right aud justice, attempt to defend
the fiendish act, aud give their siuful
sympathies to a red-handed son ! It was
only yesterday that one brother shot an 1
killed another iu llurris county, and after
fading to give one thousand dollars hail
tho murderer was put iu jail, but the
jailing was a farce, for by the connivance
of outsido friends tho murderer escaped
and has not since been heard of. Hurely
this county is getting up an enviable no
toriety for its family murders ; two with
in six months speaks volumes for its new
character, particularly when one murderer
is freed from jail for killing his brother,
and another inhumau wretch is permitted
after a week of patient waiting by law-
abiding men, to run at liberty,regretting,
no doubt in his murderous heart, that his
well intended bullet had not nt ouco sent
his father to tho grave. Oh, shame on
the fellows who blatantly endorse such
a torriblo act.
Wo hove been accused of recording
carefully tho murders iu lawless Alabama,
and many of them have beon terrible, but
there has boon uono from Opelika
to Eufaula that will compare with
this, for in Alabama thero has been
an altoiupt at justice, farcical
and fraudulent, to bo sure, but the last
throo murders in Harris cor ity, for u
downright oontompt of justice, rival, in
their wantonness, the most dastardly
murders aud trials of our sister State.
Now, wliat is Harris county going to do?
Will a certain class of her people contin
ue their sympathy with the would-bo
parricide, and will tho authorities permit
him to escape without oven tho farco of a
trial ? 0.
this may not be at all damaging to a man
who sent to Washington that story of
“outrage" committed in Macon county—
a story not sustained by the statements
of any one else, and which tho people of
Macon county have vainly called upon
Pelham to substantiate or retract. But
this bold and unscrupulous attempt to di
vert a Government charity from the uses
for which it was intended, aud to turn to
purposes of personal revenge and party
advantage the loss of the moat by his ex
pectant dependents, shows him up iu his
true character, as an artfal and slippery
demagogue, whose conduct iu this con
nection ought to be investigated by Con
gress.

Thero are up-starts who stickle nt no baso
purpose to obtain office, and who suppose
that honest men are bound to assume
fulse positions to sustain their arrogant
assumptions, and that respectable gentle

temptible and dishonorable means to aid
their foul pretensions. Whenover I for
get my obligations os an bouest oitiaen,

paltry party tricksters, then I desire tho

JJon. W. B. Harris, Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Sir:—On receipt of yonr letter,

present the distribution of ratioos in the
localities complained of. * I have also
written to Judge Pelham, calling his at

Yours, very truly, D. P. Lewis.
This is all that I deem necessary. Tho

Very respectfully, your fellow-citizen,

FtlLIIAM, LEWltt, AND THE
BACON.
Hon. We’ton B. Harris, Republican
State Senator of Russell county, Ala.,
publishes in our columns some correspon
dence explaining his connection with tho
Govoi.uncut bacon surreptitiously smug
gled into his county. Ia his Unit letter,
claiming authority to send part of Ibis
bacon to tho Third Congressional District
of Alabatun, aud to appoint distributing
agents for it, Pelham discloses tho t'uot
that he hud been in consultation with
Gov. Lowis about it, and that Gov. L.
had informed him that the bacon wan
ready for shipment to tho Third District.
This proves that Gov. Lewis’ action in
suspending the distribution of tho bacon,
after ho bud received tho protests of Mr.
Harris and other Republicans, was an af
terthought. lie appears ut first to have
entered readily into Pelham’s scheme for
tho diversion of this bacon from tho pur
pose for which it was donated by Con
gress.
Mark how artfully Pelhrm suggests to
Harris Ihut tho meat must bo distributed
(as Oakes Amos would havo said) “whero
it will do the most good"—for the Radical
party. Ho tells him that thero is not
enough for general distribution—there
fore ouly tho “most destitute must got a
shaio—not those who really suffered from
tho overtlow, as Congress iutouded, but
those who would take the oath fixed up,
which averod that they were iu destitute
circumstances and must suffer without
this relief. And, to im*ko the scheme of
distribution work as quietly ns possible,
Harris is advised that “it is host to suy but
little about it till wC are ready to distrib
ute tho bacon." How v» ifortumto that,
with i>U this intended precaution, a few
honest Republicans aud a number of
Democrats got wind of tho trick iu time
to block Pelham's liitlo gamo and niche
him go before tho Convention of his party
without a Hitch (or filch) of moat to plead
for his re-nonr nation.
But it is Pelham’s conduct in reference
to this mutter, not disclosed in tho corres
pondence, that most plainly marks tho
uusctaprhms demagogue. Mr. Harris
speaks of letters sent to his county to
prejudice his party against him. Tho let
ters referred to enclosed his letter to Gov.
Lowis protesting against the taking of tLo
bacon. Mr. Iluiris was at that time gen
erally regrnled as a candidate for tho Re
publican nomination for Judge of Probate.
Tho letters to which ho refers wore sent
to negroes to iufluenco them ogp'ust him.
They represented that Mr. Harris had
prevented the negroes receiving tho bu-
cou that Pelham secured for them. Mr.
Harris declined further contest for tho
nomination for Probate Judge, and was
not a candidate when tho Radical mooting
addrossed by Betts aud Pelham was held iu
Girard, about a week ago; so on that oc
casion Pelham had found another party to
kill off with tho “outrage" that had beon
committed upon the negroes by tho re
covery of the bacon for the real sufferers
by tho overtlow. In his speech there he
charged that tin Democrats had interfered
and prevented tho negroes from getting
the bacon! Col. McDonald then a-kod
him about his letters charging this sin
against the party upon Mr. Harris, and ho
could not deny them. So it appears ihat
after diverting a poiiion of this bacon
from the uses and parties contomp’.ated
by Cougross, nnd being foiled iu h ; s at
tempt to vso it as ho desired, Lo first
turned tho loss to his advantage by using
it to the damage of n Republican oam 1 *-
duto, and after gettiug him out of the
way, sought to throw the responsibility
upon the Democrats, who Lml no influ-
ouce whatever with the power’s eoutro n; ng
tho booon, aud never sought to exorcise
any.
Now it is true that au exposure such as

to relievo the destitute ia the overflowed
districts of Alabama.
I was on tho committeo to boo the Sup
ply Qunrtormaster and arrange the kind
of rations, 4c. Wo agreed that tho whole
amount should he invested in bacon.
Nineteen per cent, of tho $80,000 worth
is sot apart to my district, aud is now
ready for shipment, as I am informed by
the Govoruor. The freight will he paid
to Opelika. Will you do mo tho kindness
to confer with Mr. M. L. Patterson, and
otlior roliablo men of prominence, aud
scud me an estimate of the destitute in
Russell county, without respect to race or
color; and will you lot me know if you
will undertake to distribute tho bacon to
tho destiiuto iu your section of the coun
ty.
It is scarcely necessary to remind you
that there will not be enough of this ba
con for ovory one, and ouly tho most
needy oau bo supplied; so it will bo best
lo say but lit' lo about it till we uro ready
to distribute the bacon. I will bo glad to
have nny suggestions yon can make as to
host mode of distribution.
Yours, truly, C. Pelham.
I did not keep n copy of my answor to
this letter. I replied to Judge Pelham on
tho (!th of Augmt, declining to make tho
distribution, and suggested (iu substance)
that I did not think tlio appropriation was
dosiguod for upland portions of the State,
aud not more than a dozen, or perhaps
twenty, citizens of Russell had sustained
injury from overflows, 4c.
On tho 12th of August, I mailed the
followdug communication to Gov. Lewis :
Columbus, Ga., Aug. 12, 1874.
Gov. J). P. Lewis, Montgomery:
My Deau Sir—I desire to cull your
attention to a matter com muni on ted to me
by Judge Pelham, member of Cougross
from the Third Congressional District,
under elate 29th July ult. :
“At tho past session of Cougress, a bill
was passed appropriating $80,000 to re
lievo tho destitute iu the overflowed dis
tricts of Alabama.” Judgo Pelham says
he was on tho committeo to soe the Sup
ply Quartermaster, aud it was agrooil to
invest tho whole amount in bacon, and
that 19 per cent, of the investment is set
apart to his District (the Third), aud asks
if I will undertake to distribute it to tho
destitute in my county (Russell )
Iu my judgment, the purposes of that
hill do not and cannot apply to tho upland
portions of tho State, whero streams rarely
over spread out, and no permanent loss of
property and subsistence happens; but
only to soctions whore, from inundations,
vast destruction aud destitution have ac
tually iuvolvod the sufforors to such ex
tremity that aid iu tho time of their ca
lamity is iuiporativo.
To relievo the destitute in the over
flowed districts of the State cannot em
brace tho high lauds, tho hills and rnouu-
Uiuotis regions, whore, from their natu
ral organizations, inundations and wast
ing and ruinous floods nevor afflict
the people with pressing used. It is
obligatory, thorofore, that tho legitimate
iutoudmont of this appropriation should
be followed and specially adopted.
Iu Russell county, I am free to affirm,
that not a d zeu citizens cun properly
participate iu its provisions—tho otlior
counties of the District, tending north,
to a higher latitude, are freer
from disastrous overflows. lho
Coosa aud Tallapoosa rivors, the principal
stroams in the Third Congressional l).s-
trict, ns do all other streams, overflow
from heavy raiu*; but nevor of that de
structive and ruinous character as to iu-
voko the aid of tho Government to relievo
its destitution.
Again, there surely must bo some rule
or system in tho distribution of tho ap
propriation, requiring i's recipients to bo
entitled to its provisions, both for the
protoctiou of those designed to ho bene
flU d, as well as to the Government for i
faithful dis'ribution and a strict account
ability for tho just nud proper manner of
its disposal.
If tho “destitute in tho overflowed dis
tricts” aro not to got tho benefit designed
i,v the appropriation, it were needless to
establish distributing ngoucios in the
highland portion of the State, which have
no claims under the object and purposes
of tho bill making it.
Learuing that an officer of tho General
Government will be iu conference with
you on this matter, allow me tho sngaos-
