THE EAGLE. Friday Morning, October 13, 1876. NATIONAL DEiWCRATIC TICKET For President: SAMUEL J. TILOEN, OF NEW YORK. For Vice President: THGS. A. HENDRICKS, OF INDIANA. For Congress Ninth Congressional District: Hon. 33. EjL Uill. The prospect for a lively consump tion of gunpowder on the European continent continues to increase. Late accounts from Savannah and Brunswick justify the hope, that the yellow fever is abating slightly in those stricken cities. There will be but seven Radicals in tbe next Georgia Legislature, three of whom are negroes—one each from Glynn, Dougherty and Lee. Gen. Ruger, commander of the post at Atlanta, has ordered that $5,000 worth of provisions be sent to the Mayor of Savannah for tbe relief of the destitute. The New York Day Book declares that the day Mr. Lincoln issued his emancipation proclamation two-thirds of the real property of New York was struck out of existence. And now comes the correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, who says that the next political move will be tbe organization of a great party at the North, which will demand the dis franchisement of the negroes, because their enfranchisement is giving such political power to the South, that she will soon control the national govern ment. John D. Lee, the Mormon priest, who has recently been tried for par ticipation in the Mountain Meadow massacre nineteen years ago, was found guilty, the prisoner having the right, under the laws of the territory, to choose death by hanging, shooting or beheading, and having chosen to be shot, he was sentenced to be shot to death, January 20, 1877. -in answer to the question whether any full blooded negroes had died of yellow fever, the Savannah News says: “The result of our observations and inquiries upon the above subject is to the effect that the pure blooded negro is not a subject for yellow fever. Those colored who have died here, without exception, have been persons of mixed blood.” The Vicksburg Herald casually re marks: The Republican papers saythat the Northern Democrats sympathized with the south during the war. God save us in the future from similar sym pathy. The Northern Democrats and all the balance of the world helped to lick us, aud we couldn’t have been whipped without the Northern Demo crats. A ‘tire-tried Republican’ writes from Georgia to the Washington Republi can, that if Tilden is elected he will have to leave the State. This chap of course has stolen something from the tax payers, and like all the other thieves, ho feels it in his bones that when Tilden gets into the White House he will have to break for Cuba or Canada. All the thieves in the coun try fear Tilden.—Macon Telegraph. It seems to be a well-established fact that the last three or four years have witnessed a return of the Jews to Palestine from every quarter of the globe. The number going from Russia is entirely unprecedented. The He brew population of Jerusalem is more than double what it was ten years ago, and the movement is going on rapidly. Most of the city property is now in the hands of Jews, who have gone there from other countries, and in a few years’ time they will probably be the owners of the whole city. The Griffin News is evidently pleased with Mr. Milton Candler’s recent speech in Griffin. It says of the effort and the orator: “This speech of Candler’s establish ed his reputation as an orator, and we heard several say it was an abler and more eloquent speech than the one re cently made by Ben Hill. We can in form our readers that Mr. Candler is no ordina.iy man. Beneath a rough exterior ho wears a diamond intellect and a sound, clear judgement, with a character as pure as the driven snow. Ho is a gentleman, a Christian and a patriot. Ohio and Indiana. We kept our columns opeu to the latest possible moment hoping to get definite news from the State elections in Ohio and Indiana, but in this we have been disappointed. Enough has been received to show that the contest is close in both States, leaving the lesult still iu great doubt. From what we can gather from the conflict ing telegrams, we are inclined to the opinion that Indiana has gone Demo cratic by a small majority, but think it probablo that the Republicans have carried Ohio by a like small majority. All seem to agree that West Virginia has gone Democratic. Chamberlain’s Proclamation. We publish in another column the infamous proclamation ol Gov. Cham berlain, of South Carolina, ordering the white people of that State to de liver up their arms and to submit without resistance to the domination of the negro militia. A more outrage ous and diabolical plot was never con ceived by a petty tyrant to manacle and enslave a people, nor one in more palpable conflict with the fundamental principles of the Constitution and laws of the land. The rifle clubs have vio lated no law, and have banded together solely for the mutual protection of themselves and families. Their arms are their private proper ty, paid for with their own money, and these they will not be likely to surren der at the command of Mr. Chamber lain, who would subvert the Constitu tion of the United States, which pro vides that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be in fringed." The charge that there exists such unlawful combinations as to obstruct the enforcement of the laws, is but a weak device to justify the call for troops, and is contradicted by the highest authority. The State Democratic Executive Committee has issued an address de nouncing Gov. Chamberlin’s proclama tion as unwarranted by law and the facts, and as issued to furnish a pre text for asking for troops. In re ponse to a letter from Gen. Hampton, Chief Justice Moses says he knows nothing to lead him to conclude that South Carolina is an armed coun try, or that any arms are needed more potent than the laws. Associate Justice Williard and Judges Mackey and Cook, Republicans, have written a letter denying any knowledge of the facts stated in the proclamation. Mackey charges Cham berlain with conspiracy against a free ballot. 'i he Late Election. The election last week was remark ably quiet and orderly throughout the State. No serious disturbance of any kind has been reported from any quar ter. It is not un frequently the case that in the excitement incident to great State elections quarrels and al tercations arise, which result in seri ous presonal difficulties, and often in bloodshed. We are glad to record the fact that in this Centennial year, and in the midst of a heated national struggle, Georgia passess through the crisis of a State election so peacefully that even her bitterest enemies dare not charge her with disorder. Full returns have been received from 116 counties. We give them below: The official vote in 112 counties gives Colquitt 99,362 and Norcross 31,419. The unofficial returns from seven counties increases the vote of Colquitt to 104,002 and Norcross to 32,173, making Colquitt’s majority only 71,823 with eighteen counties to hear from. The Legislature is overwhelmingly Democratic The Radicals carried but six counties and elected but one Sena tor The foliowing are the recently elect ed members of the General Assembly from our immediate section: SENATORS.

Dawson—Joseph McAfee. Forsyth—Thomas Willingham. Important Homestead Decision. Iu the matter of Caleb F. Hill, bankrupt, in bankruptcy, in the United States Court, Judge Erskine made a important decision. Hill had given his notes to Willson & Son, and Cab bage, Hazlehurst & Cos., for supplies. In each of these notes there was a waiver and renunciation of the Home stead by Hill. Afterwards Hill went into bankrup cy and all of his estate, both real and peasonal, was set apart to him as a Homestead. Willson & Son, and Cabbage, Hazle hurst & Cos., filed their petition to the District Judge, asking an order, that the assignee use sufficient of the pro perty so set apart as a Homestead to pay off their debts. Judge Erskine held, Ist. That he had jurisdiction of the cause. 2d. That he would grant an order to sell all of the personalty, or so much thereof as was necessary to pay debts, as set apart under the State laws, but would sell no part of the personalty set apart under the five hundred dol lar execution cf the United States Court. 3d. That inasmuch as the notes were not witnessed by two witnesses, he would not grant an order to sell any part of the land. We learn that the cause will be re viewed iu the Circu't Court.—Atlanta Constitution. Special Correspond' nee of the Eagle. Washington, D. C. Oct., 7, 1876. It is at length decided that Colora do has gone Repubiiaan by about two thousand majority; this is notlung more than was to have been expected Just emerging from the condition of a Territory into the full maturity of a State, and with every office held by the Republicans, and all their patro nage devoted to the interest of that party, to say nothing of the large floating vote composed principally of Mexicans, who upon election days may be bought like cattle; it would have been more reasonable to expect a Democratic victory in Maine than in Colorado. It is laughable to observe the vaiu-glorious boasting of the Re publicans over their “Colorado victo ry.” Glad, it seems, to get even that small crumb. Should you see a Re publican on the streets buoyant and gay while speaking of Colorado, just step up softly and whisper in his ear “Georgia” and he drops as though he had been struck by an acrobite. The Republican papers do not mention Georgia once in their papers of this morning—'he name is an abomination to them, that state having yesterday gone overwhelmingly Democratic.— The Republicans bad no fight in most of the counties except for Governor. No disturbance is reported any where; a more peaceful election was never held in the state. A question of vast importance to our naturalized fellow citizens which has been under discus sion for some time, has recently been definitely and conclusively settled. The New York World some months since charged that Mr. Hayes was a member af the American Alliance, a party organized in 1871-1873, and 1876, each member of which took and sub- scribed the following: “I solemnly swear that I will not vote for any per son or persons for any official position in this country under the laws thereof, who are not American born citizens, and that I will not betray any of the secrets of this order, or give the name of any person belonging to this order, without his consent.” The object for which this order is organized is for the maintainance of American principles as follows: An amendment to the Naturalization laws limiting the lights of sufferage to persons born in this country, or of American,, time an election of American boj , at , no ti , m ® . .Ithdrawai of to office in this counj which ninety or his friends for hir?. usilctlous are strenerously den^d-spiring member of this’- 1 the day ot i i its wings tc recently comq n( j S6 t in mol fairly prove oe ’ manufactures . , .tore employment last, a resol u a (,ional source, t the order of . , l j n r ary in the sum ana nated Mr. ffio end that cap United Stafcß nst and labor u 6 order, with^p reaen t tariff, lov the oath, t as a masterpiece . .

Very respectfully, Alfred E. Lee, Secretary. To L. T. Tyler, Box 2072, New York. Mr. Hayes thus promptly accepted the honorary membership tendered after he fully understood its objects and intentions and in so doing put himself in direct antagonism to every naturalized citizen. Reno. Our New York Letter. New York, October 7, 1867. THE BABES IN BLUE. Republicans here are disgusted with the Boys in Blue farce. At their parade on the 4th instant, so many of these alleged veterans were evidently not over twenty-one years old, that the title Babes in Blue would seem more appropriate. Considering that it is nearly twelve years since the war ter minated, it is safe to say that a major ity of those who appeared in the parade were using hobby-horses and wooden swords when Antietam was fought, over fourteen years ago; and the ma jority of these juvenile partisans were hardly old enough to be received into the service as drummer boys, when the army was disbanded iu 1865. The pa rade was a farce, and created no en thusiasm or attention, although being reviewed by the Commander- ; u-chief, the venerable office-holding Gen. Dix, who is trained in ail political organiza tions, and been “everything by turns, and nothing long.” THE GEORGIA ELECTION. The Democratic majority in Georgia reaches the enormous figure of 75,000 votes, which makes a total of votes gained by the Democrats in the State elections held, as compared with 1872, of 192,000 votes. ANOTHER SAMPLE ORATOR. Colonel C. H. Jojce, Republican member fo Congress from Vermont, makes his capital on the stamp by de claring, vehemently that “Samuel J. Tilden never had a loyal heart-beat during the war.” To be sure, Joyce offers no proof of this assertion,, -and various distinguished men, like Mr. Watson, Lincoln’s Assistant Secretary of War, and Hon. John Biglow give very strong proofs to the contrary. Mr. \Y atson, as Assistant Secretary, might be supposed to kuow more about loyal citizens and brave soldiers than would fad under the observation of Colonel Joyce, because Joyce’s servi ces were confined entirely to the de fenses at Washington, and never ex tended to the field of battle. He was personally famous for being under ar rest during six months of his brief military career, for insubordination, and other grave offenses. Whatever Mr. Tilden’s heart-beats may have been, in Mr. Joyce’s opinion, they are always those_of a brave man, true to his duty and subordinate to the laws. AMERICAN ALLIANCE IN THE WEST. Advices here had, Ameri can Alliance development has made an immense excitement in*the West, es pecially among the Germans, and it will, without doubt, have a considera ble effect upon the elections there this week. This effect will be increased by the utter consternation intfijaJiich the disclosure has thrown the Republican leaders and press. No authoritative or definite denial is made, as would have been'done be fore this time by some of the parties concerned, if the whole history were not true. Neither Hayes, nor Lee, his secreta ry, nor any one of the metals of the Alliance named as composing the committees, has at yet said one word in reply and the attempts at explana tion are unmistakable failuse= The Republican papers all concede that the effect of such a nomination would be fatal to the chances of Hayes and Wheeler, and devote their atten tion entirely to the assertion that the lithographic letter, standing alone, does not prove a nomination or accep tance, but, in the languagtSSf'-an even ing paper not heretofore favorable to Tilden, does prove certainly the same thing, viz:—That the proscriptive or der expects its favorites to "carry out the principles it is sworn to uphold.— The acceptance of such an indorse ment with thanks, accompanied by a jll ••-'■>*l be i V tnSll the offiicial account showed. In Maine the same thing occurred, in a somewhat lesser degree, aud now Georgia has given over 70,000 Democratic majority, in stead of 40,000 as first reported. At the Connecticut elections the Republi cans have carried less towns than they first claimed, and the changes from last year are strongly in favor of the Democrats, Speckled Trout. [From tlie Atlanta Constitution, Bth inst.j We were shown yesterday by a gen tleman just from Porter Springs, a specimen of the genuine New England brook trout, or as it is generally called the speckled trout, which abounds in the mountain brooks ia the vicinity of Porter Springs, Lumpkin county, in this State. It is perhaps the most beautiful fish found in American wa ters, and though common in the brooks of New England, is rarely found in the South. There are a few points in the mountainous regions of Virginia and North Carolina of great altitude where they are found. They are the only kind of fish found in the mouutain brooks in the vicinity of Porter Springs and they exist there in great num bers. Those springs are near the top of the Blue Ridge on a spur called Cedar mountain, in a beautiful cove at an elevation of about three thousand feet, and it is just over the crest of the mountain from the spring that these beautiful trout are caught. They are not found on the Atlantic slope of the Blue Ridge, but only on the western declivity—or, more properly speaking, on the top of the mountain. They are seldom more than one foot iu length and have no scales. On their sides they are dotted with beau tilul deep red spots about the size of a large pin head, which spots are in regular lines. They belong to the salmon species and the meat of most of them are of a rich salmon color.— The experiment of transporting them to the brooks on the Atlantic slope of the mountain to stock those waters with them has been repeatedly made, but has failed in every instance. They cannot exist except in very cold water, and the water on the south side of the mountain is too warm for them. They abound in all the streams in the eleva ted table land on top of the Blue Ridge, knovvu as Canada, a section of country just over the top of the moun tain from Porter Springs, and about three to ten miles distant. It was in this section of our state that there was snow on the first day of this month. For several hours there was a heavy fall of snow, to which we al luded in last Friday’s issue. If the state government would only open up good turn pike roads by convict labor into that mountain region it would become the Switzerland of the south, but without roads in is a wild barren country. This table laud called Canada is about four thousand feet above the sea level, and the peaks surrounding it rise nearly one thousand feet higher. The fact that the speckled trout abound in those waters and that there was a brisk snow there for several hours last Sunday, October Ist is demonstrative evidence that there is within the limits of Georgia a little Switzerland if it was only developed. South Carolina. On the 7tli instant Governor Cham berlain, of South Carolina, issued the following remarkable Proclamation : State of South Carolina, Executive Chamber.—Whereas, It has been made known to me by written and sworn evidence that there exists such unlaw ful obstructions, combinations and as semblages of persons in the counties of Aiken and Barnwell, that it has be come impracticable in my judgement, as Governor of the State, to enforce by the ordinary course of judicial pro ceeding the laws of the State within said counties, by reason whereof it has become necessary in my judgement, as Governor, to call forth and employ the military force of the State to enforce the faithful execution of the laws; and whereas, it has been made known to me, as Governor, that certain organi- zations and combinations of men exist in all the counties of the State, com monly known as rifle clubs; and where as, sucli organizations and combina tions of men are illegal and strictly forbidden by the law of this State; and whereas, such organizations and com binations of men are engaged in pro moting illegal objects, and in commit ting open acts of lawlessness and violence; now, therefore, I, Daniel H. Chamberlin, Governor of said State, do issue, my proclamation, as required by the 13th section of chapter 132 of the General Statues of the State, com manding the said unlawful combination and assemblages of persons in the counties of Aiken and Barnwell to dis perse and retire peaceably to their homes within three days from the date of this proclamation and henceforth to Old S‘> a unlawfuL interference ights of citizens, and from afi Violations of the public peace.— And I do further, by this proclama tion, forbid the existence of all said organizations or combinations of men commonly known as rifle clubs, and all other organizations or combinations of men, or formations not forming a part of the organized militia of the State, which are armed with fire arms or other weapons of war, or which en gage or are formed for the purpose of engaging in drilling, exercising the manuel of arms or military manoeuvres, or which appear or are formed for the purpose of appearing under arms, or under the command of officers bearing the titles or assuming the functions of ordinary military officers, or in any other manner acting, or proposing to act, as organized and armed bodies of men. And Ido command all such or ganizations, combinations, formations, or bodies of men, forthwith to disband, and cease to exist in any place, or un der any circumstances, in the State.— And I do further declare and make known, by this proclamation, to all the people of the State, that in case this proclamation shall be disregarded, for the space of three days from the date thereof, I shall proceed to put into active use all the powers with which, as Governor, I am invested by the Constitution and laws of the State for the enforcement of the rights of the citizens, and particularly the pow ers conferred on me by chapter one hundred and thirty-two of the general statues of the State, as well as by the Constitution of the United States. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the great seal of the State to be annexed, at Colum bia, this 7th day of October, A. D., 1876, and in the one hundred and first year of American Independence. By the Governor: [Signed] D. 11. Chamberlin. H. E.
