Tlio following dispatch was received
by tho operator at this place, Mr. An-
dorBon, yesterday ovening, who will
please accept our thanks for the use of
it for our columns. It will ho seen
that Brown, the traitor, and Blodgott,
tho perjured scalawag, are defeated,In
their Senatorial aspirations. This Is
glory enough for one day—It Is so
gratifying to our feelings, so overpow
ering in its clfocts, that wo feel like
shouting I Wonder if Brown’s $25,-
000, which jt is Bald bo deposited .in
Atlanta to buy tho position with, did
not go “ up tho spout ” with his de
feat? If so, goodi Ho said lie would
leave tho Slato if defeated. God grant
that he may, and that immediately 1—
and wo hope ho will take Blodgott, Al-
pcorla and his other boon compan-
• ions along with him. But hero is the

Tho Governor’s Message.
Mr. Bullock’s Message to the Legis
lature is out, and it Is a document the
like of which never before emanated
from the Chief Executive of this or
any other civilized Stato or nation on
the globe. It is a curiosity in its way
—a document of wind and nonsense,
which would bo discreditable to a
■“Fresh’’ In any of our second-rate in
stitutions of learning. This remarka
ble “ State Papor ” was sent to both
Houses of tho General Assembly on
tho 2-1 tli. It is. long, pointless and
distressingly uninteresting—made up
principally of extracts from tho “ new
constitution,’’ with a few Bullock the
ories on government that would put to
shamo Washington, Jefferson and all
tho other groat founders of tho Repub
lic—nnd for this reason wo shall not
inflict our readers with its pi
dumps.

Radical revolution / But this is not
all. That party, has recently passed
a bill through’Congress to arm thp ne
groes of the South, which is the crown
ing act of-nil' their InfiiWofts acts.—
Arming tho nogroosl—in heaven’s

Soutii'by a,process of rpjvplution, and
placing the illiterate nnd.soml-barbario
blacks over them as their political law

relate, they now propose to arm tilts
ignorant class with muskets, and wher-
fore? Undoubtedly for the purpose
of removing nil obstacles from the
black path of roconstrttctlori,' and to
meet whatovcr.oraergoncios may arise
during tho. Presidential campaign, or
that may follow tho Presidential elec
tion.
Tho consequences, wo fear, of this
last crowning act of infamy of this des

io Louisville Journal pronounces I
tho bill which 1ms passed Congress to
arm tho nogroos of the South, “ a deed
of infamy.” It is so. It wns passed
at midnight of Tuesday last—an hour
fit for such notion. “Tho horrible pur
pose,” says that able journal, “ Is not
to bo mistaken. It was pointed out
by Democratic members in words of
the loftiest accusing cloquonce; but
words of truth fell os vainly upon tho
drums of radical ears as they would
hnvo fallen upon so many bass drums
or kettle drums. Tho Southern white
men, suspeetod of being Democrats—
that is, of beiug opposed to radical des
potism—wore disarmed long ago.—
They wore disarmed when they woro
disfranchised. Only the negroes, and
their political sooial allies, have been
permitted to bear arms of any descrip
tion, unless without tho knowledge of
tho military .authorities. Tho negroes
presuming on this condition of things,
have insolently and threateningly flour
ished their woapons on all occasions in
the faces of disannod whito men. But
there wero somo of the negroes, who,
not having firo-arms or tho money to
obtain them, could not do thoir full
part in tho work of thoir black breth
ren. And now Congress has come to
tho relief of thoso. Every nogro, who
hasu't riflo and pistol is straightway to
be supplied by our patonml and benefi
cent Government,at tho exponse of our
exceedingly rich and uutaxod people.
How many millions of dollars it will
take to arm these unarmed negroes, is
of courso not known, but tho expense
is a thing of but secondary importance,

and by it llioy.no doubt expect to in
augurate their President next March.

The Governor has spogj^aost of his
