AARON ALPEROIA BRADLEY’S EXPUL SION FROM THE BAR, The remarkably forgiving disposi tion of the people of Savannah has al ways been a mystery to us. Only a few years ago, when Bullock and his imfnaenlate coadjutors were in their glory, this pestiferous fellow Bradley swayed with absolute power the col ored cohorts of Chatham, and as a consequence there were riots at the elections and war on the Ogecchee, culminating in the death of one of the most promising young men of Savan nah. From all that wo have been able to ascertain, Bradley was direct- ly responsible for this murder. He fled tbo country and for a long time it was understood that if he was not shot upon sight as an outlaw, lie would be at least vigorously dealt with by the strong hand of the law upon liis reappearance. But after a tempo rary absence he returned to Chatham, with his usual effrontery, and quite an accession of privileges, amongst which was that to plead and practice as an attorney at law in all the courts of this State. We will noT exactly say that he was welcomed bade, but if not that,, the equanimity with which his return was borne by the Cliatb amites, is certainly not only a stand ing refutation of the slander of ku kluxism so far as they are concerned, but even argues some indifference to the morale of their highly enlightened community. We are truly glad to see, howover, that at last the degra ding influence of such a creature as Bradley moving as an equal amongst the honorable gentlemen of the legal profession, lias been realized. On the 15th inst., according to the Savannah Advertiser, Charles N. West, Esq., moved the expulsion of Bradley from the position of an attorney at, law. Sir. "West is a young gentleman of first class legal ability and indepen dence of character, and not on’y the thanks of the community in which he lives, as suggested by our contempo rary, but also those of the entire State are due to him for his manly course in this matter. We did not think that there was a Judge in Georgia mean enough to admit Bradley to the bar; and wo don’t think now that the meanness in this instance would have ventured to show itself if Banco Wright was still alive. However, the scandal will be effectually squelched by Mr. West’s motion, unless wo are greatly mistaken in the character of Judge Schley. HON. C. E. RYMES, OF SUMMERVILLE. Among her many noble and talent ed sons, whom Massachusetts has done herself the honor to bring for ward into representative pla es, in the late election, we know of none calculated to reflect more credit upon that ancient common wealth than the gentleman whose name heads this paragraph, and who has been elected from the First District to the State Senate. Mr. Byrnes belongs to that sturdy stock of New England Demo crats who have stoo l their ground for many years against the overwhelming tide of Radicalism as firm and im movable as their native granite hills. His personal friends here, of whom there are many in this town, are jubi lant over his recent election. They hope to have nn opportunity of con gratulating him in person at that de lightful summer resort in New Hamp shire, “The Isles of Shoals,” when the warm weather comes again. Speak ing from a purely Southern stand point, we wouldn’t mind having him down here as a “carpet-bagg< r” a bit, although he might he lead to exclaim at times, “How hot the sun is!” £€y“'A Radical exchange remarks : “Just wait until we have a Republi can victory and then you can look out for our rooster.” Too thin; your lit tle bird can’t iive that long. jßSyArkanses is again all quiet and serene. Governor Garland, the dem ocratic Governor, has got possession of the State House. medical officers at Pensa cola navy yard report to th< caw de partment that nil dancer fn o • 11-. v 'ever at that place Ins passe 1 AFFAIRS IN GEORGIA. The Fair held at Thotnnwil’e last week was agr ind rucc. ss. Tbomas villc is a live little city and'ln r peo | pie know how to make a Fair a suc cess. Long life to Thomasville n.,d I her people. Messrs. James F. Nelson, John B. Habersham, and J. R. Bostwick, are mnounce 1 as candidates for the May oralty of Brunswick. The Seaport Appeal supports the latter gentleman. It seems that there is no one who is anxious to lie an Alderman. Joe Brown lias announced himself a full-fledged democrat. Old Joe left the sinki ig ship just in time. Isn’t it about time for Governor Bam |to change his politics? II has been a radical little over a year. The Alapaha Forest'r is pitching in to the mail agents on the Brunswick and Albany Railroad for neglect of duty. Be patient, Frank; evrytbing will be right before many days. Bad- ; ical rascality w’iJl soon bo at end. They are trying to get Aaron A;pc- i rio Bradley removed from the Bar. A crowd of young men shot at a ! street car conductor the other clay, in j Savannah, but the ball mused him and took effect in the leg of one of the i party. Hon. B. H. Hill is fifty-one years old. We hope he will live lo bo one 1 hundred. Rev. Will. C. Moreau was shot and ! killed through a glass window in Washington county on the Dth inst., while sitting in a rocking chair read ing aloud to his wife. Richard Aiken, a colored man, was arrested ou the 1 charge of this brutal murder. Ferdinand Hon Group accidently shot Muster Earnest Brown in Sparta on 1 ist Friday. Houdroup had a rifle in his hand and not knowing it was loaded, pointed it at young Brown and fired. The ball took eIY ct in the right jaw bone, breaking it and I knocking several teeth out. Just, to think how man people are killed by i the careless use of firearms. Primus Edwards, colored, was exe cuted at Amcrieus on last, Friday. He was hung’ for the murder (if Berry Adams, which crime was committed! last May. Hon. Wm. A. Hull will be Macon’s Mayor again next 5 ear. Bully for Huff. A colored man was killed in Dough erty county the other day. The Atlanta papers seem very much puzzled about a certain woman calling herself Belie Boyd. They don’t knov. whether is the original Belle Boyd or some other man. Sam Bard, the Atlanta postmaster, says ho wants the President- for a third. That settles it; Grant will be our next President. The Northern press speak in the highest terms of our beloved Gordon’s Atlanta speech. V, lien Gordon opens his mouth to speak you can always listen for golden words to flow from ! it A call has been issued fora coaven- i tion of Confederate soldiers, to be held in Atlanta on the 20th of Janua ry next. Griffin is troubled w ith thieves as j well as Darien. The Griffin Nows ad- i vises its citizens to rub up their shooting irons. The Atlanta Constitution of Sun day has a beautiful engraving of a “Farm Scene.” John Daily was killed by John Tay lor about live miles from Hawkins ville on the Slh inst. • The Alapaha Forester speaking of the recent smash up on the B. & A. Railroad thus relates to our much es teemed friend, Mayor Dart, of Bruns wick. You can just count on Jake doing his duty ou all occasions: “The seats in the passenger coach were thrown in every direction. When this coach was being preeipiled down ! the embankment, Conductor Dart, with a presence of mind rarely if ever equalled, seeing the imminent dan ger of Mr. Clements’ little boy, and perfectly regardless of his own safety, ! seized the child in his arms just as it was about to be thrown to the* oppo site of the coach, and just in time to prevent its father and Dr. Gale from crushing it to death in their fall. This act sta*r,]'? Cupt. Dart as u hero, and no amount of praW- we might be stow upon him would add one"parti-' tOc to the £ T‘tn IK* r li 1 - ; ! BEAST BUTLER. The following is from the Salem, (Mars ) Register, a Republican pa per pulp he! in Ben. Butler’s dis trict. It ftiily babb’, s over with joy jou account of his ih feat. It says: j And what a rebuke the result shows! Sc hi the returns and compare them with those of the previous election, and estimate the intensity of tlie in dignation that con] l have produced i such a revolution. Men who never before voted for a Democrat felt com- I died to go to the pills by hundreds I and vote f..r Charles P. Thompson, the honest Democrat, rather than for Benjamin F. Butler, whose course had inspired in them such loathing and disgust. They had borne the stigma until foils arance had ceased Jo be a virtue, and they were decor mind to purify the political atmos phere by the only effectual menus left to them. And they did it with a will. .Salem, which gave„l>utler in 1572 a thousand majority, now gives his op ponent nearly eight lain ha and, while at the sumo tuna giving a Republican majority on the general ticket. The district, which elected Butler in 1872 by more, than six thousand majority, now edicts Thompson by nearly one thousand, and Republicans and Demo crats alike cry Hosanna! so far as this point is concerned. Gen. Butler can now resort to the atmosphere and pursuits most congenial to his tastes and habits—the purlieus of the crimi nal corn's and t.iio defence of knave's and criminals, whore and in which business lie has gained his greatest laurels. And all the people will say amen ! Exit B. F. B. Here is another item in regard to Beast Butler’s defeat. The poor Beast! it seems lie’s catching it from all quarters. The receipt of the news of Butler’s defeat in Boston seems to have been the occasion of a vast dis play of feeling. The Advertiser says: All manner of fun was poked at Butler and Lis defeat. None were so poor to do him reverence. When his portrait was shown it was greeted with a torrent of cat calls and hisses. It was then turned upside down, when the entire crowd broke out with rous ing cheers. The unfortunate general was <ih pielod in a!! sorts of ludicrous positi us. One picture was ‘“Salem Fixing Butler.' B'alem was-a man standing before a barreli, into which ne was sousing Butler, holding him by both legs. The upper part of his body was not to bo seen. A picture of a gigantic spoon was also shown. When the first indications of Butler’s defeat were received a jubilant dis patch was displayed: “Indications of Butler going up 'Squam liver.” .<*. c CiiAiiLus I*. Tho.vu'. on. —Butler'a suc cessor in Congress is described as fol lows by the Boston Herald; “He is rather above the medium bight, has a huge full head, a keen eye, and wears a light sandy moos tache and side whiskers. He is about 17 years of age, though looking younger than that. Ho is a man of great personal popularity, having many friends, and few, if any, ene mies. Among the brethren of the E sex bar lie goes by the familiar name of ‘Charlie.’ He resides and nracticea law in Gloucester, where Lie went in 1857. Mr. Thompson stands at the head of his profession in Essex county, and is in every way an able man; a man who will honor the old Essex district, and a man against whose public or piiv.ito life not even the public slander who fought him dared say one word.” ■ v* Pennsylvania. —lt would bo a very whulesomo event if Jeremiah S. Black should bo e lected to the Semite ol the 1 uitod Slates from Pennsylvania. Kis appearance in the Senate would he like bringing back the old days of its goodness when tlu re were giants there. In intellectual ability, moral courage, li ltl.ty to his convictions, and weight and steadiness of charac ter, Judge Black is one of tlie very lirst men in the nation; and there is no other who is so much feared and so justly hated by the Pennsylvania ring, of which Bill Kemble, Bob Mackey, Bill Mann and Simon Came ron are the special ornaments. The election of Judge Black to the Senate is something almost too good to be hoped for. — N. Y. Sun. JKi?”President Grant now says he will veto the Civil Rights Bill, should Congress pass it. What is Grant after? Perhaps he is bidding for the Democratic vote. No tellinir O • ♦♦♦— i'i/'Jfon. Sanford 11. Church, it is thought, will be the next United States Senator from New York.

We hope it is so. lin lev is a good man. -■ A Pennsylvania Radical paper says: “Oil second thought, we have concluded io go it*- Salt River.’’ OUR BRUNSWICK CORRESPONDENCE, [Regular Correspondence cf The Darien Gazette.] l>nt n.'Wick, Ga., Nov 17, 1874. Editor Gazette:’ For the past three weeks the readers of j our paper iu this place jjfwe atly missed the letters of your corres pondent, Warrington, /cannot think of him, however, without giving him credit for the happy idea which made of Brunswick, a Ve nice. At first I was considerably puzzled to find out wherein the resemblance lay, but now, after many busy days and sleepless nights of anxious thought, I am enabled fully to real ize the remarkable fitness of the comparison the. City of Cedars, like “the Queen of the Adriatic, lies sleeping.'’ Lies sleeping! Here the resemblance begins and ends. We are apparently, possibly in reality, sleeping, and those of us who now so hopefully strive to look upon the bright side may never awake and shake off the lethargy which seemr, like a pall to have settled upon us, but the time will come when unbounded life and wakefulness will take the place of inac tivity and sleep, and Brunswick will occupy that prou 1 position which nature designated that she should when all shall acknowledge her greatness and hail her as the “London of America.” The political excitement and the joyful enthusiasm which followed the unparalleled success of the Democracy, having somewhat subsided, I deem it only just and right that something should he said about the Demo crats of this county. Glynn, as you know, hangs her head in shame and says, “I gave -ofi majorily for that lying scoundrel Bry ant.” Now, for this the white people are to be blamed. Tits true that we are considerably in the minority, but how eusibly could that be remedied by concert of action and a de termination to be victorious. But no ! una nimity of feeling and purpose was never known here, and I venture the assertion that it the success of any Democrat depended upon the white people of Glynn county, we would be forever represented and governed by Radicals. I say this sorrowfully and with much re gret, but it is censure well deserveit, and I challenge contradiction to the truthfulness of the assertion. It has recently transpired that two white men residing in this commu nity, by name Isaac Myers and Hubert Mo ran, are members of the negro Masonic lodge, I only mention this because I think that they deserve a little notoriety, at the a ime time remarking that “birds of a feath er,” etc. A tew days ago I visited.the busy and thriving little city of Albany. I arrived there at a time when the all-engrossing theme was the defeat of Whitelcy and the general result of the elections. The people were, almost frantic with y>y, and well might they be, tor if ever a people had cause for thanksgiving it was the cisizens of South west Georgii when the electric wires flashed the gla l tidings that the Second District had been redeemed from the dominion of that white-livered, black-hearted apostle, Richard H. \\ hiteley. My sojourn iu this bright little city was particularly pleasant. [ found the people generous and sociable, business brisk and flourishing, and a hotel which in real merit will far excel many of the more pretentious mansions throughout the country. And right here I will couclnde with this advice to your readers: If any of them mould visit AlDanj’ ami desire to stop at a hotel where the landlord is affable and obliging, the waiters polite and attentive, the table most bountifully sup plied, and the rooms and beds calculated to please the most fastidious, then let them wend their way to the Albany House, kept by Merrick Barnas, and their desires will be fully gratified. y.
