NAItm, • • • WHO- ' OOMnfBW, «A. i WEDNESDAY OCTOr.EK 28, 18^ 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.’’ AI.AU.UIA SHVK; —A company of United States cavalry arrived at Opelika a few ^ days ago, aud went into camp at Bird’s Spring. —All tho reliable accouuts from all parts of Alabama are still very encourag ing for tho Democrats. They can only lose ctiou by inactivity, aud they do not 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.

To My Fellow-Citizens of Russell Coun ty:—Flora recent developments, I deem it proper to place you before the part I h.tvo taken in reference to tho notorious bacon transaction in the Third Congres sional District of A’abama, and the rea son why letters li&vo been secretly and freely circulated among certain of my constituents iu Russell for the purpose of exciting their prejadioes against 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 men must stoop to any low, dirty, con temptible and dishonorable means to aid their foul pretensions. Whenover I for get my obligations os an bouest oitiaen, aud loud myself to the filthy purposes of paltry party tricksters, then I desire tho good pooplo of ltussoll to forget that I ever livod among them. I submit tho following correspondence in relation to the bacon transaction, that yon mny bo the better able to condemn or approve my course: Montgomery, Ala., July 29, 1874. Hon. W. R. Harris: My Dear Sir: — You are doubtless that nt the past sossioa of Congress paused appropriating $80,(100 me with much force, and I take the priv ilege of presenting them to your consid eration. Very respectfully, Yours, 4c., Walton B. Harris, Senator from Russell. GOVERNOR LEWIS’ REPLY. Dry Creek, Ala., August 25th, 1874. JJon. W. B. Harris, Columbus, Ga.: Dear Sir:—On receipt of yonr letter, of 12th inst., and other information to the same tendency, I have suspended for the present the distribution of ratioos in the localities complained of. * I have also written to Judge Pelham, calling his at tention to this matter. Yours, very truly, D. P. Lewis. This is all that I deem necessary. Tho writer of the secret letters distributed through the county, can have the fall benefit of what he has accomplished by his greasy work. Very respectfully, your fellow-citizen, Walton B. Harris.

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 TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. a bill 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- That the actual sufferers on the low Hall of Columbian Lodof. No. 7, F. fc A.
