Telegrams of yesterday inform oa that Secrettry Evaria ia preparing a letter to the Miaaiaaippi authorities regarding tbe killing of Chisolm and bis family. Tbe letter will he a no'ice to tbe people of tbe Southern States in regard to tbe poaition of tbe De Facto upon the qoeation of tbe protectiou of citizens of all claaaea. I* thia to be considered as a part of the pol icy of Mr. Hayea 1 If ao, what law author izes hia Secretary of btete to dictate com mand* or inatrnctiona to the sovereign State* of tbe South more than of tbe North 1 We thought tbia prepoateron* folly waa at an end. Doea Mr. Evarta, accepting office under a well known fraud, think tbia country ia in a atate of war, and he has power to re-enact the role of Mr. Seward in sounding bis little “silver bell,” and put any man he pleases into an Amer ican bastile? Does he imagine that one part of this great reelm baa rights to which another ia not entitled ? Southern States have Governors and Legislatures like those of other sections, and Mr. Evaria must communicate with them politely in the manner of equals, and not as a master. We wish none of his iuso- lence nor lectures. Tbe South oan take oaro of herself, and has passed the stage where she will bow to the domination of any usurped authority. As Sheridan would say, “she ia not afraid”—even of Evarta’ cuolmu sentences.'.Her,Statea are now equals in this laud and tbe sooner tbe Itadicai mind of such upstart Secreta ries of State as Evarts and frauds like Hayaa understand tbia tbe better for them. They bad better be looking out for IhemsolvoR, for if the carpet-hag Sen ators do what they threaten, and the Ue- turniDg Boarders and allies, atnng to tbe quick by tbe uegleot of the De Faclo'a de sertion, unfold tbeir dirty aecreln aa they have boasted they would, both Honses may inatitnte a question of bow Mr. Hayes holds bis authority and by what right be came into power. Then all may become ua tho people voted it should bo, and the command he for Uayea, “givo him a odd potatoe and let him go.” Chisolm, who was killed in Mississip pi, was originally from Georgia, but turned itadicai for plaoe and monoy. Sinoo he has been living in Miaaiaaippi, bo baa boon connected with more than one killing. When the mol) slew him he waa ohargod, on nogro evidence, tho hoavioat kind with Hayea A Co. wbon ilia against Democracy, with having waylaid and assassinated an honorable man, among the first iu Kemper oouufy. Agaiuat mob law tho entire South is or rayed, aa ia every orderly oommuuity everywhere. Our people denounce tho auvngeneas of tho brutaliam wfioh will end a life without the legal forms of trial. This detestation of tho orimo is exhibited in all quarters. Tho people of Mississip pi, themselves, have shown their antipa thy to thoso who engaged in the attacka on tbo Cbiaolois. Tho eutiro Southern Dewooratio press have dononnood the sot. The Ouvernur of the State haa-via- ited tho spot, and promised that tho porpotratora shall he punished after a trial bofnro the courts and requested tho Judge to hold a session earlier thun usual, tlint justice might lie done. Thu oitizena have also manifested every williugnoss to nid in tbo arrest of tbo law hronkora. Agaiuat mob law evory good iuiiu, no matter wliouoo ho cornea, ia firmly and bitterly opposed. All this avails nothing with tho class of which llayus and Evarts are the mouth piocos. A Kediosl was killed in tho South, and Evarts, iu rovonge, is going to infliut on us one of his lung drawn out, ponderouH nud moauingloss harranguea, giving warning of what angorioua fraud, misuamod President, will do iu oertain contingencies. Would he daro do such a thing, if u nioli hnd’killod a man in New York, Philadelphia or the West? Thoy have had numerous murders and lynoh- iugs in tho Northern and Wostoru States. Why has not Mr. Evarts delivered his threats to thorn 7 The civil courts havo dune uu more thoro than iu tbo South— endeavored to arrest the guilty and let them have a (air trial beforo tho proper tribu nal.

Oui States have some rights nud they mean to maintain them, and tho Now York lawyer, who ocoasiouaily not* as Secretary of State, may juat a* well keep such opin ions as he threatens (ho South for tho dileatation of tbe Cabinet and hi* own private perusal. Mr. liayos uud his assistants had bettor be assured ns to the security of their own official positions beforo they meddle with tbo legitimate funotions of tho Southorn Slate Governments, or give advioe which neither the circumstance, time, ooeaaion uor people oall for, and which will ouly sorvo to stir up malignant fcolings be tween sections, and for wbioh there is not the least neoossity, or even propriety. Hayes and Evurts, if they do what is pro posed, will bo aotuatod only by malice becauao tho South will not support Gar field for Speaker. The sooner be and hia advisers learn tbe difference between Federal nud State authority, and that Slatoa are equal, the better it will be for the country. Deo dk Brooue, just recalled to tbe leadership of President MacMahon's Cabi net, ia a grandson of Madamo de Stael. He was chief of the cabinet some years ago, and pushed with great perseverance several schemes for patting the govern ment on a firm basis. He had great in- fiueDoe in shaping tbe new constitution and in inaugurating many of the mesa- urea defining the powers of tbe Govern ment si it now exists. His retirement from the ministry waa owing to the defeat of bis electoral bill, one of bis pet scheme*. Ha ia not a friend to tbe lie- pnblio aa it i«, bnt waa never counted an Imperialist or Uoyaliat. The New York Keening Pott in defining de Broglie's po litical position calls him tbe advocate of a ' Uepablican government by centralized cabinet.” HOW EX-4MVKUOB EMDBICU •EM IT. Paorasaoa Ttndall has given the weight of bis great authority to a theory of oontageoua diseases which' is daily gaining ground. It ia that the commu nicable diseases are spread by the agency of solid partioles conveyed in the air we breathe, in gas we may inhale or in tbe liquid we drink. It ia furthor claimed that by no possibility can disease of tbe contagious kind be spontaneously gener- erated in tho hrnnau subject; it cannot he produoed apart from tbe agency of thoso objeotionable germs or solid partioloa aforesaid, in which it is strictly trno that death lurks unawares. The importance of tbia Jfaeory oan be seen at a glance,and oan hardly be overestimated. It points to a time when sanitary science, having become better known and more widely praotioed, contagious diseases shall he practically stamped out. i ing during that time.

Some are pleased, other* placidly resigned to tbe new policy, and others are oat in open revolt. “How does the Democracy view the situation ?" “Jnst aa they do here in this State, in Ohio, and all over tbe oountry. They cannot oomprebend.how Nicbolla, receiv ing less votes than Tilden, can be recog nized aa tbe legitimate Governor of Lon- H aiana. Tbe recognition, though perfect- y right, hardly consists with former de- 1 ciaiona, and tbe Democrats are natural ly indignant over the matter.” Then you are not very apprehensive of any split in the Democracy. “Not at all. Tbe policy adopted by Hayea in regard to the South ia identical with that foreshadowed by Tilden. Mr. Hayes saw what the conotry demanded. He saw that tbe people were uneasy, that thoy were galled by a military yoke, and that they were not likely to submit to tbia yoke much longer." 'Then yon think that Mr. Hayea’ poli cy ia not a voluntary one, but that he was virtually compelled to withdraw the troops ?" “I would not pot it just that way. I don’t think Hayes was under any oompnl sion in the matter. He saw what must come sooner or later, and in making the beleagnred States once more free be simply anticipated events.

Tho mys terious movement* of thoso in oontrol of the herd soon excited in the minds of the people living near suspicions that all was not right. The cattle men knowing that they were auapioted, moved thc<r herd early in tho spring, increasing it as they went. Some few weeks ainoe sev- cxal oitizena of that section, who had missed cattle, followed tho herd, and overtook them abont 300 mile* west of here. The herd contained abont 2,000 cattle, guarded by shout thirty well.armed men. The pursuers identified many of their own aud thsir neighbors' oattle in the field, bnt were told they oonld not have them, and were advised to return home immediately, which they did ; and now another party of about fifty oitizena of the viainiua* from whioh the cattle were stolen have started in pursuit of tbe thieves, and It i* hoped that they will auo- need in oaptnring them, aa well aa the oattle. TROUBLE AHEAD FOB THE FRAUDULENT I-REHIDENT—NO EXTRA BESBION AT ALL.

Now, yon Reo that liotwcen these nntngonisma a President, fatally bent on carrying out a platform on whioh he was nominated, aud wbioh tho framers forgot a* noon as it was promul gated, and the party itself, tho dealing is desperate and deadly. There is no relief, because thoro oan bo no compromise. Uulf the work has been accomplished, aud the same firmness und courage that have brought about thia mnch promise all.”. "I hoc tho Hopub ican loaders find too late that it were better to have a Demo cratic President carry out a Democratic policy than a Hepubltcan. The first is an assault that rather strengthens tbe otlior Hide, while tho last is confession and sui- oide." “But it is too late. That is preoisely why the extra session is held in Ootober instead of June." “I don’t see it.” “No, but you will when I give yon a few facts to stand on. Tbe Democrats have the House. The Democrats, aided by the little handful of carpet-baggers, oan have the Senate. Now these last, iu view of tbe very unpleasant death in store for them, havo boen negotiating with the Democracy to have that organi zation iu Oougross do what the Electoral Commission failed in, aud thus go back of tho returns and unseat Hayes by show. ing that Tilden wsb duly elected." “The Devil aud Tom Walkor! Do you moan to say that this charming sohouie actually ussumed practical shape ?" “Certainly I do. The Kadioal rascal* of Mouth Caroliua and Louisiana, mad dened by the unoxpeoted derertion of II*) e«, had ready for publication all the rot of Florida and Louisiana through which HayeH secured bis inauguration, aud tho production of that would have foroed an investigation, nndthe President would havo found himself dependent upon five desperate fellows in the Senate. They would then be masters of the situation, iiiHlead of the Administration. “I don't believe the Democracy could bo induced to oouuteuanoe suoh a iobome.” “iDuooont roan ! The Democracy, at loss', no leading Democrat would cuter iuto a conspiracy for any such a purpose, especially with carpet-baggers and oou-—- viotod rogues who turn State’s evidence. But suppose some startling discoveries wero mnde by Mad. Wells and Packard, who now, by aud with the oonsent of Hayes, are being kicked ont of the South; tbe Democrats would hav« to order an investigation, and the resnlt of that would depend on tho handful of desperate aud rebellious Hepublioans in the Senate." *v “And so to avoid all this the extra bob- sion was oaltod for Ootober,” “Yes, sod that is not all. If thoy find lliey oan run tho machino smoothly until then, tha President will revoke his proc lamation, aod we shall have no extra session at all.” For the People. Milledqeville, Ga., May 21, 1877. Mr. Editor : I am informed, upon good authority, that one Mr. Win. V.
