• —The section of the Seim*, Rome and
give Hie details of the splendid Democrat- | Dalton juilroad, extending from the Ala-
ic victories “all nloug the line” on Tars- j Lam* line to Dalton, was to have been
diy. Tho a!m:>st unvarying reports of t add in Rome Tuesday.
The Baltimore American (one of tho
strongest Republican papers in the coun
try) names the following as the causes
that have effected the great Democratic
gaitis, as exhibited by the recent elec
tions : “Unwise administration at Wash
ington, the promincuce of the third term
agitation, and the failure of Congress to
ileal broadly and liberally with groat pub
lic questions, more especially those that
concerned the pacitication of the Booth,
have combined to w ither the spirit of par
tisan loyalty that has hitherto made the
party invincible.”
It is reported thut Vice President Wil
son called at the White House on Wednes
day of last week, and was denied admis
sion to the President, on the ground that
the latter was busy. Wo eon hardly bo-
liove this. It is true that Mr. Wilson has
been, according to report, expressing him
self emphatically against a third term for
<irn. I!rant, and truo tlmt the Adminis
tration paper at Washington gave him n
broad hint, a few days ago, that he lmd
better “dry up” on that question (as we
noticed lately) ; but wo do not think that
for even such things as these the Presi
dent would rudely “snub” his associate.
Ben JSutlku, finding tlmt Radical fidel
ity to party was giving way in Massachu
setts, niado heroic efforts to “tire the
Northern heart” for another reconstruc
tion of tho South. When he heard of the
uprising of the people of Louisiana
against Kellogg, he expressed the pious
wish that the President would call on
Massachusetts for volunteers to set things
to rights in IiOiiisiaiin, and give him com
mand of the troops. II<f burned to clean
out tho “Whito Leaguers” in Louisiana
and Western Alabama, and to visit once
more on Now Orleans the blessings of a
little mild rule and plunder under Butler.
We fear tlmt this is the work for which
the people of his district are reserving
him, since it is reported tlmt they hav<
excused him from representing them in
Congress any longer.
Speakr.it Blaine wont to Boston on
Saturday last, and made a desperate ef
fort to rally and exoito the Radicals of
Massachusetts by the old cry of disloyally
mid outrage at the South. Ho said that
a Democratic victory in tho Union would
nullify or neutralize the 14th and l.*ith
Amendments. Ho declared that iu tho lust
<JongresH, “the Democratic members of the
Reconstruction Committee made a minor
ity report, signed by F. P. Blair, Senator
Bayard, of Delaware, James B. Beck, of
Kentucky, and Samuel S. Cox, of N
York, in which they avowed the broad
and bold doctrine tlmt the political rights
of the colored man, as conferred by the
constitutional amendments, would go
down with tho Republican party.”
Tho answer to this frantic barauguo by
the Spoaker of the House is to be found
in the reports of the election iu Massa
chusetts, and especially in Boston. That
bugaboo has “played out.” Some feeling
other than hatred of tho whito ponplo of
the South will hereafter control elections
at tho North.
The New York World of Sunday, calls
upon Congrosn to impeach Attorney Gen
eral Williams for his efforts to intimidate
Democratic voters iu tho South. We
hopo that this demand will bo earnestly
pressed. There is no doubt that the mili
tary power entrusted to tho Attorney
General 1ms been used freely for parly
purposes. In many instances, no doubt,
the subordinate officers and soldiers failed
to do all that w as exjieotcd of them, be
cause the work wus revolting, and their
instructions had to bo indefinite and
guarded to avoid a confession of the
design at Washington. But if a report
can bo obtained of all the movements of
the troops and of tho parties at whose
call they were moved, tho conspiracy will
be made apparent. Jt is time that the
freedom of elections in this country from
military interference was re-nssorted
and established, and a fitting rebuke to
Attorney General Williams will reach the
Democratic HUcoessfH or large gains eve
ry where disprove tho assertion tlmt local
influences have had anything to do with
this revolution. It cannot be ascribed to
the financial question, for the hard money
and contraction Democrats of Now York
and Massachusetts have made gains os
large as those of tho inflation and curren-
cy-paying Democracy of Ohio and Indi
ana. Republican apathy cannot account
for it, because the reverses of their party
in Indiana and Ohio, in October, umJe
the Radicals of tho other States work
with tho energy of men who fully appre
hend their great danger, for the lust
month at least. Hoctional influences have
not produced it, because the political rev
olution has been confined to no State or
section. Neither can the great political
change bo attributed to any flush of ex
citement or misconception of the purpo-
of the parly in power, for the people
acted with deliberation and without any
evidences of passion.
The truth is, there is a longing desiro
by the pcuplo of tho United States to re
turn to tho just and constitutional gov
ernment of former times. They arc
tired of the usurpations, excesses and sec
tional domination of the p-irty in power.
Only the prejudices and animosities en
gendered by the war have prevented thorn
from sooner arraying themselves against
the corrupt, oppressive aud unjust rule of
the Radicnl party. As tho New York
Herald said on Saturday Inst, “it is de
monstrated that our politicul contests can
no longer bo influenced by tlio obsolete
questions which divided the country thir
teen years ago.”
Tho people of the United States want n
revision of the tariff laws, so as to lessen
the burdens which they imposo upon
labor and cheapen the commodities of
necessary family consumption. They
want a more equal distribution of com
mercial facilities us affected by nationn!
legislation. They want more regard for
economy In tho expenses of tho Govern
ment. They want n relief from oppres
sive taxation to the extent that simple jus
tice to the national creditors will
permit. They want a stricter
accountability of Government offi
cers and a moro satisfactory account for
the Government expenses. They want
the Federal Govern incut to reform its
own administration and leave to the Stntes
tho management of their own domestic
affairs. They want a stop put to Govern
ment interference in State olociions and
Government intervention iu questions of
Stilto policy or law. They demand that
party administering the General Govern
ment shall bo actuated by higher and
more national principles than Imto to a
section of the Union and vindictive per
secution of a class of its people, and tlmt.
class the intelligent ami property-holding
class. Tboy require that tho party ad
ministering tho Government shall shape
its policies with a view to tho wants and
wclfaro of the people, instead of
tho perpetuutiou of party rule. This
verdict of the people is a stern rebuke
to the miserable, concerted cry of “out
rages” at tho South, and to the aspirations
of Gen. Grant for a third Presidential
term. Tho people of tho country still
love truth and tho long-observed policies
under which they have grown so great
ami prosperous, aud temporary excite
ments or the intrigues of political dema
gogues cannot permanently lead them
astray from these landmarks. They have
now taken the first steps towuyls commit
ting the national legislation to a party
ontonding for tho re-assertion of those
principles of government, and tho revo
lution will not be Htayed until it accom
plishes tho objects whoso advocacy gives
it its present strength.

That was a queer idea of Speaker
ltlaine, iu liis speech iu Boston, that lie
could lintue ten Democrats of tho North,
two of them Gov. Seymour and Samuel
J. Tilden, of New York, whoso voices
would be potential in producing a change
for the better in tho South. Could their
voices upset tho usurpation iu Louisiana,
upheld by Federal bayonets uml Gatling
guns ? Could they lift tho intelligent mid
tax paying citizens of South Carolina
from the depths of oppression and de
spair to which (he rule of ignoraut ne
groes aud thieving carpet baggers has
consigned them ? Could they reinstate
the finances of bankrupt and plundered
Alabama, or restore respect
law and private rights where law has
suspended for the pupose of encouraging
crime and protecting criminals? Uulef
the voices of these potcutial Northern
Democrats can do tlie^e things, it is hard
to conjecture what “change for tho hot
ter’ they cun effect at tho South by speak
ing. But if they can remedy theso and
other real ewls under which the South is
suffering and groaning, the sooner they
speak out the hotter.
Hall, Alabama !
Georgia extends a warm greeting and
hearty congratulations to her near sister
State ou her rederuptiou from tho rule of
rogues and spoilers—from tho uscctulaucy
of vice and crime that has so long
riot and played lmvoc with one of th
fairest and naturally richest States of the
Union. \Ve know that tho battle
hard fought one, nud tho coutest was cur
tied ou in tho face of discourage
and attempted intimidation. But th 1
victory w as only the more lionoiable and
will l»e the more lasting because of these
difficulties. Alabama bus now fairly t u
tored upon the work of recuperation and
political purification, and wo trust that
she will net or again relapse into the con
dition from which her sous have just so
hardly rescued her.
The Ku-Klux! tho Ku-Klux! They
must have overrun nearly tho whole
Union on Tuesday. How elso can wo
account for tho Democratic successes in
Illinois, Now York, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, A’o. ? Even old Massachusetts was
frightened from her propriety by those
tumble intimidutoiH of peaceable voters.
Plymouth Rock afforded no refuge, and
Bunker Hill no protection. Where War
ren fell aud Sumner sleeps tho hideous
ghost of dead Secession raised its horrible
head, uml terrified Radicals tbd iu dis
may before tho apparition. It confronted
old Bon Butler iu his stronghold, and the
i of Dutch Gap, Wilmington aud New
Orleans took refuge iu lloosac tunnel.
The Federal troops were sent to the wrong
localities, for the dreaded Ku-Klux had
found new fields for their operations and
now exult in victories won in States
invincible heretofore. “Lot us havo

Till: ELECTION IIIOT.
A fierce and quite siuguiuary fight oc
curred here yesterday at the polls, be
tween the whites and blacks, in which six
white men were wounded by pistol shuts, ,
but only one fatally, it is thought. Their j
names are Major Henry It. Shorter, L j
F. Nance, Wui. Keith (mortally), Thus, i
Stovall, John Huddleston, aud Silas
Jones.
Some thirty-five or forty uogroei that
wo know of, wore wounded, and proba
bly as muuy more ran off with morn or
less slight or serious wounds, that wo have
not hoard of, as they were coming up to
have thoir wounds dressed during nearly
the whole of the afternoon.
There wore two negroes killed outright,
aud some ten or fifteen mortally wound
ed. Tho killed are Richard Alexander,
who lived at Mr. B. 11. Jucksou’s place,
ten miles north of town. Geo. Walker,
who lived with Mr. John P. Roqueiuore,
Milos Colquitt was mortally wounded ;
Goo. Pickney, seriously, Torn Walton, Ab.
Pittman, mortally,uml others wore mortal
ly or dangerously wounded, whoso names
wo onuld not got. To sum up tho casual
ties among the negroes, we think that
there were ten or fifteen mortally wound
ed : thirty-five or forty slightly and seri
ously so, and two killed dead iu their
tracks.
The difficulty grew out of the abuse of
a negro who im 1 voted the Democratic
ticket, by several Radical negroes, chief
among whom was one very hud negro
named Milas Long. Several white gentle-
men rushi d up when they saw the abuse
being heaped upon the Democratic negro,
and when he had received several blows
they rushed in and ordered tho mob to
desist. Milas Long, we are told, offered
to draw a pistol upon Mr. Clinrlic K
Goodwin, when he was told not to draw a
weapon there, or he would bo killed.
With an oath against the whitens, uml
daring them to ooiue ou, ho wliippod out
bis pistol and fired. In in instant a gen
eral lire from both whiten and blacks com
menced, which the lattor stood for n
second or two, aud then gave way iu one
of tho wildest stampedes ever witnessed
ou our streets. There were probably five
hundred shots fired by both sides, a ma
jority uf them being fired by the whites.
For a little while it was thought that
the negroes wore massing near Hart’i
Warehouse for a renewal of tho contest
after the whites had ceased to fire ; but
seeing the readiness aud determination of
the whites to meot them, tho negroes
again scattered, and soon all wus quiet.
Wo thought wo saw the devil in many
of the negroes that emuo in from the coun
try uiKiut niue o’clock in the forenoon,
mid we noticed iu thoir hands heavy
hickory clubs and spokes from wagon
wheels, showing clearly thut they meant
to carry mch weapons fur no other pur
pose than to fight. No man carries an
eighteen inch or two feet heavy club, or
a largo spoke from a wagon as a walking
s*ick. They carry them to fight with and
for nothing else. They were permitted,
however, to go ahead with them and they
nearly all voted heforo tlio fight opened,
as up to 12 o’clock nearly 1,800 votes hud
been polled, fully two-thirds of which
were negro votes. After voting, instead
of peacefully returning to thoir homes,
