The Latest lladieal Movement.
Some weeks ago we predicted
Hint the radicals would take up the
umignttiyqt otsouthern negroes to
Kansas atul the western states for
] oliueal purposes, and that the
movement would probably sprerd
so as to seriously affect the agri
cultural interests of the late slave
states. Our fears were not ground
less. Senator Conkling, Gen. Ben.
Butler, Bob lugersoll and other
shining lights of the republican
party endorse and encourage the
movement. In a negro cenvent on
held in Nashville a few days since,
Gen. Builer offered'2o,ooo acres ot
western lands for homes for the
negroes, and Conckling offered to
provide homes fo r one hundred
families. Societies have been or.,
ganizd in Boston, Washington,
Philadelphia, and other northern
cities to promote the exodus. A
missionary has now appeared in
Ceorg’a. On Tuesday of last
week Aaron Alpeona Bradley, the
oid wahoo of the Ogeeehee, and
Senator from the Savannah district
in the dark days of radical misrule
in Georgia, delivered a lecture be
fore a large crowd of colored peo*
pie in the city of Savannah. The
subject of his address was “The
brave Zulus of South Africa, the
Liberia Emigration blunder, and
the Kansas Exodus of 1,000,000
colored persons from the Southern
States and their reported condition.”
After ihe conclusion of his address
the “Grand Progressive Council o*
Savannah,” a society intended to
promote the “exodus of 1,000,000
colored people from the Southern
State,”was organized. The Sa
vannah News, from which we get
the above facts, well says <- it is to
be presumed that Aaron Alpeona
has not entered upon this stupen
dous undertaking solitary and alone.
It. is more likely that he is woiking
in conjunction with the Boss on
Emigrant Aid Association, Beast
Butler, B"b lngersoll and other
sympathizers.’’ The movement will
not be developed, perhaps, into any
considerable proportions in Geor
gia the present year, but next win
ter and spring it may be worked up
so as to be a grave and embarrass
ing question with our farmers.
A petrified Printer.
The Harrisburg Patiot says; Ben
jamin Singerly, formerly proprietor
of the Daily State Journal, and
state printer for a term of years,
who died suddenly after traveling
from Philadelphata to Pittsburg
one very hot day, about two years
ago, was a very heavy man, weigh
ing from 350 to 400 pounds. He
was interred at Pittsburg. A tew
weeks ago the relatives of Mr. Sin -
gerly made p-eparations to have
him resurrected and taken to Phil
adelphia, where his parents and
other relatives are buried. When
ihe hands to whom the work was
intrusted dug down to the top of the
casket, they were surprised to find
that no offensive odor prevailed.
The rough box was opened, but the
attempt to remove the casket from
it was ineffectual, on accout of its
extraordinary weight. This crea
ted considerable surprise, and it
was at last suggested to open the
casket. An undertaker was intrus
ted with the job, and when the lid
was removed the face and body
were found to have undegone pet
lification —had assumed the color
of yellow marble, and the entire
face and form seemed as -one mass
of ma r b!e chiseled from a block

ments was out of place or uunatu

ral m ibe slightest degree. The
body was raised from the grave by
means of a block and fall, and was
found io weigh, when weighed for
transportation to Philadelphia, 980
pounds!
The Three Little Bills.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
In the most plain and distinct man
ner three issues will be presented,
to the republican party, for veto or
indorsement. The two parties will
be placed on record these issues.
This will be done unmistakably and
more than once before the adjourn.,
menl of the extra session of con
gress. The congress will not hesi
tate to send bills enough to the
president, and in reasonable and
respectable forms, to secure a com
plete committal ot his party on
these issues. They are simple.
There shall be no army at the polls.
There shall be no “test oath” for
jurors. There shall be no federal
supervisors or deputy marshals at
the polls with powers to arrest
without a war lent, paid from the
federal treasury, which collects
taxes from all parties, to labor for
one party. The president will have
ample opportunity to veio each ot
these propositions, connected
wish or separate from appro
priation bills, and the country will
judge betweeu the parties on. these
issues.
