I THURSDAY NOVEMBER 12, 1*74 Tn T»r-boi pro rod too ttrong tat the pill-box at tha election In the 7th Con- gnarional District of MmuAhmUa Th« j Xh* now put; woa In lhoO,»nd their “Tn* >UB FAIT." Before the war the Republican party rallied ita followers by the strongest ap peals to their sympathies—appeals made in behalf Of human freedom, and which found a response abroad as well ss in tbs hearts of many of the people in the Bott-alaveholdiog Slates of the Union. wheels of government will run with less friction in oonaeqnenee. It is reported in Philadelphia, that the owners of the steamship Great Eastern are deliberating about sending 5,000 pas sengers over in her, to l*» fed and housed on board during the Centennial Exhibi tion. Tire Springfield (Maas.) BrpubUean teems to think that the chances are in fa vor of the election of Dawes to tbs United States Senate for the foil term, succeed ing Washburn. The Democrats would no doubt prefer Charles Francis Adams. The Supreme Court of Tennessee, in session at Knoxville, has decided that a man owning land on a river hank, any where, has a right to establish a wharf and oolleet wharfage, sod that the only differenoe between that and a city wharf, is that the wharfage at the latter is gen erally regulated by an ordinance. The States of Oregon, Arkansas, Geor gia, Maryland, Missouri, Texas, West Vir ginia, Delaware and Kentucky send clean Democratic delegations to Congress—63 in oil. The States of North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee send only one Radical each ont of their 28 members. Thb Montgomery Journal takes comfort in the fact that though no Republican was elected to any offico in Delaware, the whipping-poat and pillory still prevail there. Perhaps the whipping-post and pillory contributed materially to the Dem ocratic *■‘dean sweep,” by preventing fraudulent voting, repeating, “and Rich.” Thb grand jury of Bibb county think that the common schools of the county oost too much money, and recommend a restriction by law of the tax to an eighth of a cent on the dollar. The Telegraph <t Messenger says that this, it acted upon, will prove virtually a return to the Poor School system which prevailed before the war. It we have a system of education at all, we should have a good one, find as little tinkering with it as possible. Where a sohetue has been put in operation, it should be given s fair trial before being abandoned. Wb learn by a dispatch from Boston, 7th, that on Wednesday lsat Dr. Ayer was burned in effigy in the town of Ayer, which was named after him. In condem nation thereof a numerously attended oitixena' mooting was hold, when depre catory resolutions wero passed. This incident, and the letting down of a spoon over Butler's head while he was speaking, convince ns that tho Ku-klnx have overran Massachusetts, sure enough. By-the-way, it strikes us that Ku-kluxistn in this country had its origin in a little tea party,in Boston harbor about one hundred years ago. CAN SUU TUI NUN BET The papers speak of plots and counter piota by which each of tho two great po litical parties will nook to circumvent the otbor when the next Congress meets. It is said (or conjectured) that the Radicals will get Mr. McPherson, Clerk of the House, not to put the names of the Huuth- era Representatives elect on the roll,*ao as to exclude them at tho organization— this on the ground of intimidation or Ku- Klnx. We cannot credit this. It would bo ineffectual even if attempted, for tho Dcmooruta will havo a majority of the Northern as well as the Bouthorn Ueproseutstlvos, and enu overrule tha Clerk, oven if the latter is backed by a resolution or aot passed by the prosent Congress. The constitutional provision that “eaoh Uouso shall be the judge of tho elections, returns and quali fications of its own members," cannot be overridden in that way, and any party at. temptiog it wonld not only be defeated in the game, hut would incur tho ooutempt of tho people. Almoat equally reprehensible is a de sign attributed (falsely wo believe) to the Detuooratic majority in tho Ifouso, which is to obtain n two third* majority in that body by giving aaata to all Democrats who may contest tho oloction of Uadioals. This is precisely whst Radical Congresses have been doing for tho last nix or eight yetm. They have refused seats to Dem ocrats who were elected by cloar majori ties of 2,000 or ovon ft,000 votes, and nn- Jnstly put Radical contestants their seats. But if tho Demo cratic party expects to maintain Ita aacendancy in the Ilonne, it must avoid and repudiate the frnmln and oorrnpttomi by which tho Radicals lost the confidence of tho peoplo; it must practice hoiunty instead of obicanery and injustice. We feel well assured that with tho restoration of the Democracy to power in the House will couio a returu to tho good old prac tice of awarding seats only to membors fairly and legally elected, without respect to their political affiliations. —Miss Belle Boyd (or the lady so-called whoiu the Atlanta Aetm pronounced nn impostor the other day) “went for” Mr. Abrams of tho Netrs on Tuesday after noon. She demanded a retraction, which Mr. Abrams refused to make. She then eess is as much attributable to the panic of 1867 during Buchanan's administration, as to any fixed principles of free soil, or emsneipstion. It is a fact that no politi cal party in power ever survived a finan cial crash, or£the failuro of its financial policy. During the war the people of the Union, like those of the floutb, ceased to bo partisan, and for the once rose to the dignity of patriots, but the day the war closed party lines were drawn, and strange as it may seem, many Confederates laciar Republicans, and hosts of able soldiers North at once resumed their old positions in the ranks of the Democratic party. An unprejudiced observer examining the cause of this can assign good and patri otic reasons for the presumed change in the footings of men who, on tho battle fields, were foes. The Conservative Con federates became Republicans; the Com aervative Fedorals became Democrats,and each went to an inconsistent extreme when freed from the military obligation. It is a great misfortune that parties did not chango their nemos st the doso of the wsr, for with Us termination new isaues rose, and new parties should have met them. This, however, was not the case. The dawn of peace saw the Repub lican party in power, its elected head as sassinated, and a strong-willed, but nar row-minded mau in tho executive chair. Hot with the passions of war, the Union party forgot to be magnanimous, and to gratify party hate they placed the chains that had fallen from the ox-slave the limbs of tho heroic van quished. They forgot that two-thirds of the Htatc Territory was in tho Houth, and moro than ouo-feurth of the peo ple forgot everything broad and national indeed, in their wild fury and the inordi nate desire to retain powor. For long years the Democratic party exiatod only as a weak opposition, while tho Republi cans held tho rein*, not by pledges of future conduce, but by keeping alive the wounds of tho war, and, hyens-!ike, opening the graves and rattling tho skelo- ton bones of fallen soldiers in tho oars of the people. The Republican press and Republican speakers bad n boundless field for effective platitnde the moment It was known tho ex-Gonfoderate sided with tho Democratic party. They forgot that tho late Confederate had no party, for tho Democrat fought him as well as tho Republican ; and they did not appreciate the desperate condition of the impoverished, to whom protection had bten promised, but who, seeing him self robbed and enslaved by tho party iu power, instinctively turned to the weak Democratic party as tho only ray of hope amid the Stygian darkness about him. Tne story is too tresn to neefl ropciitfim as a reminder ; but the desire for power, after the war storm bad calmed, led the Republican partisans to invent stories of outrage and wrong in the Booth, and thus keep alive tho batea that should havo boon buried, aud the chasm filled with gravos over hicb God in llis mercy had spread the aod and the flowers of a common country, bidden forever. The people of this laud, North and Houth, are right at heart, and true to the traditions of tho Republic as are the citizens of the oldest Monarch ies. Their eyes were opened to the true condition of the Houth, and they relinked the falsifiers of a brave peoplo. They felt a panic iu 1873, when they expocled plen ty, and they threw the blaroo on the Ad ministration. They saw tho party trick in tho pendiug Civil Rights hill, and they rebuked it; and look ing at tho efforts of the party in powor to coutinuo tho control by violating tho tra ditions of tho Uopublio iu tho third term movement, they rose in their wight and provod, what we havo always maintained, that oonntry is strongor than party, and that iu this thinking, roadiug laud tho people may he deceived for a time, but it H impossible, with an independent press, to keep them blinded. After fourteen years of struggle tho war has virtually closed, sml now that the groat States North and Houth have in tmth clasped bauds, let ns vow, without ignoring the heroes of our common country, that tho dead past shall bury its dead; that we hIiaII forgot all that is bitter iu tho past and tnrn with hopeful hearts and strong bands to tho future. In this lies onr safety, our prosperity. The Houth, hitherto eloudod by suspicion, and shad owed by a drood poverty, again feels the warm snu of freedom nbiutttg b«r, and again stands whore her voioe can be heard in iho councils of a country made independent of old by the valor of her revolutionary sires. Now lot us work aud build up onr land, for tbe past is dead, and the future glorious. C. votes. This feeling will certainly extend with time, and every year will add to the number of negroes repudiating tbe Radi cal party and acting with tha Democrats. On the other hand, the agitation of the Civil Bights bill has more nearly nnited the whites of the Booth than ever they rere before. We think that we do not risk anything in making the assertion that not a single county in Georg a^ Ala bama or Louisiana waa this fall carried by the vote of white'Radicals. Prior to this year there were several so carried in each of tbeHtates named. Having once sha ken off old prejudices and allied tbem- witb the Democracy, the white vo ters now aeting with us for the first time will remain with the party now triumph ant throughout the Union. One consideration that will more than ever disgnst the negroes with their white Radical leaders, is tbe faith lessness of the latter towards the negro candidates in the late Southern elections. In Georgia a negro,ran for Cuogrem in tho Eighth District hich contains a large majority of negroes) and he received less than 300 votes iu the Dis trict. In AlabAtna the two negro candi dates for Congress were defeated by tbe refusal of tho white Radicals to support them. This is clearly shown by the elec tion figures. Lewis, the white Radical candidate for Congress, obtained a major ity in the First or Mobile District, while Jere Haralson, the negro Radical candi date, was beaten, and this notwithstand ing the fact that Jere is the best public speaker of the two. In tbe Second or Montgomery District, Rapier the negro candidate for Congress, runs behind Lew is and White and Hheets in every county whose full returns we havo seen. He ran twenty-six votes behind them in his own county, Montgomery, fifty-throe votes be hind them in Barbour, 2«7 votes behind them in Coffee, and he failed to get a vote in Geneva county! It may possibly bo that*Uapier wonld have been defeated by b very small majority even if the white Radicals had voted for him, bat the returns show con clusively that they did not vote for him. We might, by a comparison of the votes of othor comities, make this showing still stronger, but we think that the figures which wo give are sufficient. Of course such conduct as this on tho part of the white Radioals will exasperate the ne groes and make them more cautions here after in giving their support to their greedy white political associates. In every view that we may take of it, tbe prospect is that the Radical power in the Houth is forever broken, and that each succeeding election will show an increas. ing number of negro Democratic voters. The deceptions which the Radical whites have practised on them by their terrible stories of what the Democrats would do lo ro*cnslave the negroes or deprive them of their political rights, will be exposed be- fore another election, and when this is done, we expect a perfect rush of negroes for the Democratic camp. Let us be thankful that Southern Radicalism, at least, is beyond the reach of the hand of resurrection.

There is a division of opinion among the oitizons of Atlanta as to whether she is the real Belle Boyd of Confederate fame. —Tho Atlanta Herald has boen in formed that Mr. M. T. H.
