A Sad Spectacle.
One of the most lugubrious spectacles ex
hibited in this untoward generation vra.s seen in
Nashville, the other day, when eight of the
Radical Representatives in Congress got to
gether and issued a formal Protest against the
iate election in Tennessee. When the Radicals
in Georgia undertook to fraudulate fifty thou
sand Democratic majority in this State, we
thought it a strong case. They deserved sym
pathy— they had declared open war on common
sense .and human reason. Rut when it comes
to seventy thonsand majority—that is still more
startling. It is the twelfth juror cursing the
obstinacy and folly of his eleven compeers. It
is the old heretic of Noah's flood re-enacted,
who sAt on the top of the highest rock swearing
he meant to bring suit against the corporation
for not providing proper drainage.
WhAt will these protesters have done ? Do
they expect Congress to interfere—annnll the
election and back Stokes in his threatened
Coup (f ctat f They don't say, and probably
they dare not say. They protest, and they set
forth to Congress and the country the horrid
ills which must follow if the election is per
mitted to stand, but they dare not recommend
any positive course in the premises. They
shrink from any direct appeal to Congress to
annnll the ballot and set the election aside.—
And what they dnre not recommend, even for
the temporary salvation of their own political
bacon, they can scarcely hope Congress will
dare undertake.
Indoed, so far as we are concerned, wo should
be glad to see this question of Congressional
interference with the freedom of elections, take
a shape which no man could hereafter evade or
misrepresent. We should be glad to see Con
gress proclaim openly—the position it has prac
tically assumed in the South, that heroafter no
State election the results of which aro unsatis
factory to the Radical party, shall bo permitted
to stand. We should then, at least, know how
mattors stand and wh it is the character of the
government.
No doubt these gentlemen feel much ag
grieved by the Tennessee election. It sounded
the death knell to all their political prospects.—
It emancipated the whites. It put an end to a
stupendous Ethiopian Imposition: but it is too
big a case for their management.
,Mi<I<llo <*eur^iu Colored baptist .As
sociation.
This body met in Eatonton, Georgia, on Sat
urday last, and adjourned onFriday, 7thinstant.
Rev. Wilkes Flagg, of Milledgeville, was the
presiding officer, and \r< learn from those who
were present, that he presides with great dignity,
and preserves admirable order. It was the oc
casion of quite a largo assemblage of the colored
people in the village, and it affords us plcasuro
to chronicle the fact that their conduct was or
derly during the whole time.
An important step has been taken in connec
tion with the Colored Baptist Ministry, by Rev.
E. W. Warren, Pastor of the First Baptist
Church of this city. Mr. Warren was at the
meeting of the Association on tho last day, and
proposed to board for one month in Macon, say
December next, fifty colored Baptist Ministers,
and arrange for their instruction by a catacheti-
cal system of lectures by himself and other
prominent Georgia Baptist Ministers. The
subjects on which they aro to bo lectured are
the following: Scriptural Interpretation—
Scriptural Geography — Scriptural History—
Christian Doctrine — Christian Experience—
Holy Living—Church Discipline—Ministerial
Qualifications—Composition of Sermons—De
livery of Sermons and Church Organization.
His proposition was gratefully received by the
Moderator and tho Association generally, and we
have no doubt Mr. Warren will make a success
of it, and add materially to the efficiency of tho
colored ministry.
The Association, by the way, we hear adopted
a resolution looking to three examinations of can
didates before they are fully licensed to preach.
Tho Cotton i‘rop of ISG9.
Correcting an estimate made by the Charles
ton News, a correspondent of that paper insists
that tho crop of this year will not bo more than
200,000 bales over that of 1SGS. We shall be
surprised if it is ns much. All the accounts of the
crop in Georgia which reach us, show that the
fields now look much as they usually do in No
vember. Tho crop is almost universally made.
Picking will be pretty much over by the middle
or last of Octol>er. This is an extraordinary
state of affairs, and although a greater area was
cultivated than last year, we have serious doubts
whether the yield will bo greater. Wo hope it
will, but really see no great chance for it,
The Cot ton Crop.
A recent trip on the Milledgevillo and Eaton
ton Branch Railroad convinces us that if our
State makes as much cotton as last year we will
be fortunate. The fields generally, present the
appearance as to life of the plant, condition of
the leaves, etc., as they usually do in November
after the first frost of autumn. There was a
good bottom crop made, a fair middle crop and
no late or August crop unless in exceptional
cases. Cotton is mostly open and picking is
fine ; but it will soon be gathered. That section,
we hope, will raise enough corn for home con
sumption.
Small creeks have entirely dried up and many
mills stopped for want of water.
From Brunswick.—We have the Seaport Ap
peal of the 4th, for the first timo for several
weeks. What has been tho matter ? We trust
the Appeal does not cut us off in otir prime. The
Appeal is principally down on Savannah and the
Central for their alleged monopolizing spirit
and characterizes the former as the “Southern
Hub.” We hope to see Brunswick a prosperous
and growing city without taking a leaf from the
laurels of Savannah. There’s room for both on
this round globe of ours, and wo bid both God
Bpeed.

The Coming Immigration and the
Labor Question.
While we are discussing questions respecting
Chinese and foreign immigration, we are really
overlooking the kind of immigration most im
minent and the source from which it is to come.
These were pointed out last spring in a charge
to the Grand Jury of Dougherty by Hon. J. M.
Clarke, which was printed in the Telegraph
about that time. The Judge prophesied a
heavy emigration of the freedmen from Virginia
and the other border States—gradually retiring
before the influx of white immigration and
white labor.
Repeated extracts from the Virginia papers
which we have copied, of late, show that this
movement has begun. A statement reprinted
yesterday from the Lynchburg News, says that
the crop failure in Virginia will drive the ne
groes by thousands southward from Virginia
during the ensuing winter. The Danville Times
says that Virginia will soon be occupied by
small immigrant proprietors from other States,
and the colored population will move rapidly
southward. We have also published announce
ments of the actual beginning of such an exo
dus from Virginia, so that we may justly assume
that the theory of the Judge is fast taking the
shape of fact
On the other hand, we learn from many trust
worthy sources that the negro population is
rapidly leaving tho rich alluviums and prairie
lands of the Southwest, and seeking the up
lands. They will not consent to labor in insalu
brious localities. Sickness is very fatal where
there is no provision for medical advice and
remedies, and proper food and care for the pa
tient, and where these are had the expenses
sweep away the small earnings of the laborers.
Thus, under the combined operation of these
causes the circle of the colored habitat is fast
narrowing. This population is gradually work
ing towards a common centre—the great upland
cotton region of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi
and Tennessee. Hero they have a mild and
healthful climate, and here they can find abun
dant labor and good wages in the production of
food and upland cotton crops. Their places in
the great cotton alluviums, if supplied at all,
must bo filled by Asiatics, and many millions of
the Chinese are born in and people just such
regions. We believe the Mississippi alluviums
and the rich prairies of the Southwest can well
afford to offer such superior inducements to
Chinese labor, as will command it and insure
that vast region of unrivalled fertility from all
danger of relapsing into jungle.
But we, in tho Southern uplands, see iji this
movement of the colored population that our
apply of negro labor is probably destined to
increase from year to year, and that we occupy
the point around which the last of the colored
race will cluster in the final issue of the great
industrial conflict with the whito race. We
need not, therefore, vex ourselves with the
problem of Chinese immigration. Wo should
rather learn to do our best with the negro, and
prepare to compete, through him, with Asiatic
labor employed in tho production of lowland
cottons.
Tho best and most practical minds in these
States should be turned to digesting the best
systems of labor employment and management
—the best system of police for tho protection
of property, the collection of wages, enforce
ment of contracts, tho security of labor against
crime, demoralization, fraud, and imposition,
and in fine, the harmonizing of the interests of
the white and colored populations upon the best
possible foundation.
Let us assume, once for all, that the kind of
agricultural labor we havo is to bo ours for at
•least a generation, and turn our thoughts away
from vain speculations about some other, to
[the practical point—how we may best utilise,
control, and govern what we have for tho inter
ests of all concerned.

naval station and by war vessels, in honor of Sec
retary Rawlins.
Generals Grant and Sherman were in consultation
this morning at tbe War Department.
The President to-day appointed General Sherman

Tbe following order has been issued at Norwich.
Connecticut. The parties in whose behalf the pe
tition was made are now on trial before a military
commission at Calvert. Texas, for the alleged mur
der of Dr. Maxwell, in June last:
Kr parts. Ben. Brown, Eli Wood, John H. Halli-
gen. Granville Williams. Andrew Fnillip Stone,
meets the petition for habeas corpus, at Chambers,
before 8. P. Chase, Chief Justice of tbe United
States, September 6th, 1S69 :
Upon hearing the petition in this case, it appear
ing from tho statement of D. N. Baziza, Esquire,
counsel for the petitioners, that there is no good
reason to apprehend that the sentence of the mili
tary commission now trying the said petitioners,
will, if againet them, or either of them, be carried
into execution until the questions arising upon their
petition shall have been determined by the Supreme
Court of the United States, upon hearing of an ap
plication in behalf of E. M. Yerger for a writ of
habeas corpus with writ of certiorari, directed to
tho Circuit Court of the United States for the Dis
trict of Mississippi, to be made at the session of
the Supreme Court of the United States to be held
in October next, or upon hearing of a similar appli
cation for writ of habeas corpus with writ of certio
rari, directed to the Circuit Court of the United
States for the. Western Dietrict of Texas, to be
made to the said Supreme Court, at its said Octo
ber session, in behalf of tho petitioners; it is
therefore,
Ordered. That farther action upon this petition
be postponed until tho second Monday of October
next, at Chambers, in the City of Washington, on
which day, or ‘earlier if fonnd needful, this appli
cation may he renewed.
S. P. Chase,
Chief Justice of tho United States.
A letter lias been received from Mr. Davis dated
London August 20th.
The Chinese Minister, Browne, informs the State
department that the Chinese government has grant
ed no concessions to any company or individuals

FROM CUBA.
The Cubans have tho following to the 20th : A ro-
connoitering force of seven hundred from Puerto
Principe, were defeated. It is reported that Puerto
Principe has been abandoned, the Spaniards having
retreated to Keuvitas. Valmazada’a forces moved
from Los Tunos and attacked the Cubans, who were
concentrating in that vicinity under Quesada. Yal-
mazada commanded the Spaniards. Tho force was
composed of twenty-five hundred regulars and fif
teen hundred volunteers. The engagement lasted
four hours. The Spaniards were repulsed with heavy
loss. The Cuban loss was over one hundred. Yal-
mazada found refuge under the fortifications of
Los Tunos, which Quesada, without artillery, was
unable to attack.
In tho fight reported in Puerto La Grande in which
a Spanish force of over seven hundred was defeated,
it is Btated that after the first fire the troops desert
ed tn masse to the Cubans/ when tho officers were
captured and paroled by Jordan.

Col n in bus Affairs.
The Sun of Tuesday says there was a heavy
rain on Sunday on the Talbotton road, within
five miles of Columbus, and abundant rains have
fallen in the southern part of Russell county
and in other sections of Alabama. There was
a slight drizzle in Columbns on Monday. The
mill and ginhou.se of Wm. G. Woolf oik, eight
miles below Columbus, were burned on Sunday.
Mr. Eugene Stewart, a young and promi
nent merchant of Columbns, died on Monday
evening of congestive fever. Trinity Church
has chosen Rev. S. S. Harris, late of Montgom
ery, to be its Rector. A novel claim of suc
cession to the estate of T. W. Brantley has
arisen by the appearance of a woman claim
ing to be his widow. A woman unknown, left
by an unknown man for accouchment at a house
in Columbns, died of congestive chill, which
seized her immediately after her companion had
left her. She refused to make any disclosures
and was anxious to die.
From nalilivin County.
The Federal Union learns from Mr. E. D.
Brown, a contractor on tbe Macon and Augusta
Railioad, that the distance from Macon to Mil-
ledgeville by the line is thirty-one and a quarter
miles.
About thirty-five bales of new cotton had been
sold in Milledgeville up to Tuesday, at 29l@29J.
R. L. Hunter, Esq., had established in Mil
ledgeville an agency of the Southern Insurance
and Trust Company of Savannah.
The grand jury of Baldwin county complain
of Gov. Bullock’s exercise of the pardoning
power—of his reckless expenditure of the funds
of the State in advertising in the public gazettes,
and of the removal of tho seat of government.
From Monroe Connty.
The Advertiser of the 7th, has the following:
The amount of cotton which has been brought
to Forsyth thus early in the season is simply
astonishing. On the 3th of September, 1S63,
the first of the new crop was brought to that
market. Up to yesterday, one hundred bales of
this year's crop had been received in Forsyth.
This comparison will give some idea of the ef
fect of the unfavorable seasons of tbe past
month. The crop is premature, and will fall
fully one-half short of the usual yield.
We learn from Mr. Jas. M. White that the
caterpillar made its appearance in his cotton last
Sunday, and is playing havoc with bis crop.
Up to that time his prospects were better than
most of his neighbors, his crop being planted
on bottom lands. If the caterpillars, however,
continue to make headway as they have for the
past few days, his cotton will be ruined
The farmers of Pike are very blue about the
prospect of the cotton crop. It is the same old
tale—dry weather, rust, etc. The crop through
out Monroe, Pike and the snrronnding counties
is opening very fast, and farmers are busy pick
ing it out.
The Monroe Agricultural Society held a pub
lic discussion on immigration last Saturday.
Opposed to it—CoL Pinckhard and Judge Phin-
azee. In favor—Dr. Lawton and Geo. W. Ad
ams. Adjourned for farther debate, without a
decision.
The following statement was telegraphed from
Washington on the 3d instant:
A meeting was held to-night in one of the
wards, by black Republicans, at which it was
stated that there was great suffering, reaching
almost actual starvation, among the negroes.
It was shown that the corporation had not been
able to pay the negroes who had worked on the
streets for three months, and that the city is
bankrupt The Mayor was further charged
with having swindled the city out of eleven
thousand dollars. Property holders here are so
disheartened, that, the Baltimore Son, of tins
morning, says they are selling here at a sacri
fice and moving to that city.
There is a band of robbers operating in the
neighborhood of Sand Mountain, in Alabama.

The Pennsylvania Disaster.
Scranton, September 8.—Two bodies havo been
brought up swelled beyond recognition. Clots of
blood clung about their mouths, and they were hor-
riblo objects.
It now seems that the efforts made to save the
miners probably caused their death. The volume
of air sent down for ventilation carried the flames
from the burning shaft into the mine. Nothing is
now being done except throwing water down tho
shaft. Approach to the mouth of the mino is still
dangerous.
Later.—One hundred and three bodies have been
brought up.

Mr. Spurgeon, in a recent sermon, referred
to the velocipede, saying that these new inven
