Difficulty,
About dark yesterday evening, in front
of the Third Baptist Church, a personal
difficulty occurred between Messrs. Phil
lips and Sharkey. The latter was badly cut
in the arm. Phillips not arrested at this
writing; but the police were on his track.
Mills for Sale.
We ask special attention to the adver
tisement of J. W. Phillips, who offers for
sale the valuable mill property known as
Phillips’ Mills, in Campbell county, four
miles from Palmetto.
This property is well situated, easy of
access, good road to the Depot, Las a
very superior water-power, free from
dnurjer of freshets, aud is a splendid site
lu. .t Cotton Factory.
Swapping for a ’Possum.
The tightest trade ever witnessed iu
Atlanta, came oft between Lee Smith
and a colored citizen of a neighboring
county, yesterday. The darkic brought
in a twelve pound ’possum, which he de
sired to exchange for $2 worth of United
States currency. Smith—thank heaven
there is one of the name left—under
took to put a Griffin shin-plaster off on
him, with a drink to boot. The nig
could not see it, till he got round about
three, when the trade was made, and a
B. & A. Bill substituted for Griffin shin.
The darkie went off happy, and Lee
said something about everybody being
invited to call at II o’clock to-night, at
which time the varmint will be de
voured.
Special to the Savannah Morning News.
Gen. Grant will not Interfere to Prevent
Bullock’s Impeachment—He JLraves
that Matter with the People ami the
Legislature.
Washington, October 27, 1S71,
Your correspondent called on tbePres-
d ont to-day, for the p rpose of calling
his attention to an article in The Atlan
ta Sun, headed “Your Threats will Fail,”
•. . which article was copied in the Morning
' News of the 25th icst.
1* . The President, after reading the article
' Very carefully, pronounced it entirely
v* unfounded. He says if the action of the
Ku-klnx in Georgia necessitates the appli
cation of the powers conferred on him by
the Enforcement Act, he will not hesi
tate, but he never had thought of inter
fering with the impeachment of Gover
nor Bullock, or any other official of the
State Governments. That is a matter
which tho people and the Legislature
must settle among themselves. No one
has authority to threaten the Legislature
or people of Georgia with martial law, or
subversion of the State government, in
case Bullock should be impeached.
C. H. W.
Senator Estes, Colonel J. T. Dorongb,
and Captain J. B. Estes, of Franklin
comity, arrived in the city on Saturday.
Tin y are sound Democrats and give a
good report of the prevailing sentiment
ot tUe oeople oi that county.
. as in
the past, so in the fature, I shall give
the Democratic nominees an unreserved
support; and I trust, by a united effort,
we may, on the first Wednesday in De
cember, elect the ticket- -Ihe tchole ticket.
Bespectfully, Luther J. Glenn.
October 28, 1871.
Wetakegrea; pleasure in laying the
foregoing card before our readers. In it
CoL Glenn shows commendable spirit—
one that is patriotic, truly Democratic,
and entirely characteristic of Luther J.
Glenn. Wo have no doubt all the other
candidates will be actuated by the samo
spirit, and that the Democratic party,
with one grand rally, will elect ihe whole
ticket.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct 28, 1871.
To my friends of the Democratic party
of the city of Atlanta: I have been hon
orably defeated in our nomination for
Mayor of the city of Atlanta, and I pub
licly pledged myself to “stand by the
nominees of our party for Mayor and
Aldermen,” and while I have no power
to bind any of my party friends, I intend
to stand by what I have publicly and pri
vately said. I hope my friends who
stood by and with me will do what I said
I will do in reference to the support of
the gentlemen now at the masthead of
our Democratic organs.
In conclusion let me add, this is ho
time to differ about men. I am, very
respectfully, your fellow citizen,
Wm. H. Hulsey.
The foregoing manly and patriotic card
of Col. Hulsey is in keeping with his
past fealty to the party.
Stoic » Basket of Champagne.
On Friday night some enterprising
thief lifted a grate on the Line street
front of Berry, Yenable & Collier’s drug
store, entered the cellar and succeeded
in capturing and carrying off a basket of
champagne. Nothing else was missed.
It was a fine moonlight night, thus giv
ing the burglars a good chance to see
that no policemen were around to inter
rupt their stealing (?)
The Official Coant.
TE LEO It A MS.
It has been stated that Hon.
Thoiuoa Ewing, who died last week, was
a candidate for the Democratic nomina
tion n>r Governor of Ohio this year.—
This was a mistake, as it was his son
Thcuias Ewing, Jr., who was the candi
date.
The managers of the nominating elec
tion on Friday, met at the City Hall on
Saturday, and consolidated the votes for
Mayor, with the following result:
John H. James, 1,036; Luther J. Glenn,
702; Wm. H. Hulsey, 425; M. J. Ivey,
IS.
Mr. James being at the City Hall, was
conducted into the Council Chamber,
where the lesnlb was officially announced
to him, in response to which he rose, and
in a short address, accepted the nomina
tion, returning thanks to the people for
the mark of confidence which they had
bestowed on bim. He remarked that the
candidacy for the nomination had been
unpleasant in opposing personal friends
and good Democrats, but that he had
done so with the best of feeling and' in
all fairness; that before the war he was a
Whig but since the war he had been a
Democrat—always co-operating and
voting with the party; that he is now a
Democrat and nothing else, and should
devote his time and means to the success
of the Democratic party and its nomi
nees; and if chosen Mayor, wonld do all
lie could for the best interests of the city.
The few remarks were delivered in the
good taste so characteristic of Mr. James,
and were warmly applauded ■ those
present.
Councilman Wells, one of the nomi
nees of the First Ward, was present, and
being called upon, expressed thanks for
the high compliment of a re-nomi-
nation at the hands of the party, and a
determination to do all he could for the
success of the cause and the ticket. ,

some point in France.
London, October 28.—Austria submits
proposals respecting the international for
consideration of the Government at Ber
lin. It has been decided that the Papal
Conclave on the subject of the Pope’s
testament shall meet in France and not
in Rome.
The French army has been* organized
into nine corps, each corps containing
three divisions, each division two bri
gades, each brigade two regiments of
three thousand men each, in addition to
the cavalry, artillery, and four thousand
five hundred men extra for Algiers.
The Vatican circles continue to give
out that the Pope will shortly leave Rome
unless the Due de Hemvint is favorably
instructed by the French Government.
There is no possibility of such instruc
tions.
An Allocution of the Pope is publish
ed, in which, while recognizing the
Bishops appointed by the Italian Govern
ment, as possessing requisite qualifica
tions of their offices, he solemnly re
pudiates Italy’s guarantees, and protests
against invasions of the Holy See. The
Allocution also condemns the course of
Dr. Dolhnger, and such as follow his ex
ample in warring against the decisions of
the Ecumenical Council.
Washington, October 28.—The Star
says the Treasury Department has direct
ed the special Treasury agent, Hale, at
Savannah, to take charge of the Custom
House at that port, and settle up the ac
counts of the late Collector, Col. Robb.
A new Collector will be appointed on the
return of Attorney General Akerman to
Washington.
A special to the Tribune says the in
vestigation by the United States Court
of Claims into the various claims against
the United States for cotton seized by
government officers during the rebel
lion, tend to tbrow additional light on
the mystery which has surrounded the
sale of cotton by the government agents
shortly after it was seized from thej
rebels during the war. The govern
ment realized from these sales about
thirty millions of dollars, but examina
tion of the government agent’s books and
other evidence which has been obtained
tlirough the prosecution of these claims,
reveals the fact that the cotton was worth
over twice that amount. It appears that
some of the agents at New York disposed
of the cotton at 29 cents a pound, when
its market value at the time was 75 cents
per pound. Some of the agents appear
to have been in collusion with their pur
chasers, and the poorestftinds of cotton
were shown as samples of the entire lot
held by the Government, the bidders
getting" it by this arrangement, at the
low price of twenty-nine cents per
pound, and subsequently selling it at tlie
market price, thereby clearing the differ
ence. The claimants, however, refuse
to base their claims at lower figures than
the market value at the time ot sale, and
it is feared the Government will, in re
funding the money, be a considerable
loser, especially now, that the British
claims stand a chance before the mixed
commission of being allowed some com
pensation for their losses.
It is now known at the Treasury De
partment that several of these agents
have defrauded the Government out of
large sums of money. The accounts
show this, but what steps the Govern
ment will take to recover its just does
has not been decided upon.
The President will issue a proclama
tion for thanksgiving on the thirteenth
of November.
It is reported that Creswell will rec

special from Salt Lake City, of the 27th,
says it is stated in official circles that
Brigham Young is 120 miles south of
this city, with his course still onward —
It is not known to what point he is
bound. Some think he will leave I re

in St. George, 300 miles from here. It
is certainly doubtful whether he will ap
pear for trial, and whether the head of
the church will be seen again here-until

of his counsel, submitted quietly to the
arrest and started for Montgomery last
night in company with Mr. Goode.
The warrant did not state the charges,
but we presume that it was issued under
an indictment found against Mr. Stan
ton by the grand jury of Montgomery for
obtaining bonds under false pretenses,
alluding to the over issue of $500,000 of
indorsed bonds’obtained from Governor
Smith. At least it was intimated to us
some time ago that some suck action
would be taken.
Mr. Stanton states that he can prove
his innocence, as those bonds, he says,
were sent direct to New York and did nut
pass through his hands. * ,
We suppose, however, as a matter of
coarse, that the Grand Jury found similar
indictments against all of Mr. Stanton’s
associates in the management of. the
A. and C. R. R. We should not be sur
prised to see in the telegraphic news from
New York, to-morrow, thatD. N. Stanton
and the other Directors have been ar
rested under requisition from the Gov
ernor of Alabama upon the same charge.
The bonds were obtained and under
false pretences, or else the indorsement
was forced. In either case a very seri
ous crime has been committed, and we
presume that if the guilty party can be
ascertained he will have to suffer for it.
