Edmunds, the radical senator from
Vermont, one of the perjured villains

concurrent vote of both houses, and
and that when there are two or more
returns from a State, that ono only
shall be counted which has the con
current vote of both houses. Such a
law would have elected Tilden in
1877; but of course it wouldn’t do

fi. Daniel Come to Judgment.
One of the plainest and most out
rageous violations of law, since the
war committed by a United States
District Judge, has just giveD Judge
Alexander Rives of Virginia an un
questioned notoriety. Here are
about the facts:
Burwell and Lee Reynolds were
indicted in Patrick county for the
murder of A. C Shelton, a white
man. Before the trial their counsel
moved the court to award them a
special venire, to be composed of
both whites ami blacks, “since *he
venire in atGndance was composed
wholly of wbi* • and no negro’s
name had bt in put into the jury
box.” Judge Treadway, the Circuit
Judge, who was presiding, overruled
this motion. The eupon tho de
fendants offered a petition praying
that the cause be removed to the
United Sta*2B Circuit Court at Dan
ville, under the laws of the United
States. This petition was refused.
L’ne first trials were set aside. On
the second L j w v sen* meed to the
penitentiary for eighteen years,
iu the case of Burwell the juty could
not agree. Thereupon defendants
appealed ') Judge Rives, asking a
hab - corpus and that their cases
be heard anew in his court. Judge
Rives issued an order, which re
qi'red the cle k < o issue a habeas
corpus cum causa for the men, and
to have asp rial venire, “irrespec
tive of race or color,” summoned for
the trial of these causes at the next
term of his >urt. The Deputy Uni
ted S' tes Marshal went f > the jail
at Patrick court house, demanded
the p ’sorters and they were quietly
surrendered to him, and he removed
them 1 > Chatham, the county seat of
Pittsylvania county.
This United States Judge
to tr\§ : n h : s court two alleged offend
ers against the State law, who were
m pi’ocess of trial before the Slate
court in strict accordance with the
State law. If he does it, convicts
aud hangs them he will be guilty of
murder. If a wretched partisan like
Rives can try iu his court all persons
accused of crime against Virginia
law, simply because no negroes hap
pen to be ou the jury, every Slate
court might as well be abolished at
once and United States Judges as
sume all judicial functions iu this
country.
It is uot strange that Virginians
are indignant. It is no wonder that
Governor Holliday has called the at
tention of the legislature to Rives’
usurped power and it is highly
probable that the United States
house of representatives will be asked
to impeach him for his r
proceeding. Ho is not fit for a trial
justiceship in the South Carolina ne
gro county of Beaufort, and the
democratic Louse of representatives
that would decline to prefer articles
of impeachment against him, is of no
more account.
The Municipal Election.
The regular election occurring
every year in Gainesville for a may
or and one alderman for each of the
three wards, came off last Tuesday.
The day was raw and blustering yet
a great deal of interest was manifes
ted by the friends of the different
candidates and consequently a large
vote was polled There were only
two regular tickets in the field, one
bearing the names of R E. Green
for mayor and W. P. Smith, H. S.
Bradley and T. M. Merck for aider
men and the other in the interest of
C. R. Simmons for mayor, W. P.
Smith, H. W. Bostain and T. M.
Merck for aldermen. This shows
that the real contest was between
Green and Simmons for mayor and
Bostain for aldermen,
though W. L. Gordon, M. W. Finger
and R. H. Watkins received some
votes for aldermen from each of the
wards respectively. The Simmons
man were early on the ground and
their ticket led up to noon, after
which the Green men had it all their
own way, though it was claimed by
the supporters of Mr. Simmons and
admitted by his opponents that the
contest was closer, much more than
the returns showed. The new mayor
and aldermen with those holding
ovor will make U3 an admirable city
government. The following is the
result as officially proclaimed.

Rev. Dr. Leftwiteb, o? Atlanta, Ga.

bj terian Church, of Baltimore, Mon
day night, to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Dr. Backus in
1875, who since that date has been
the pastor emeritus. Dr. Leftwitch
will therefore go from a small city to
a great one; from a poor congrega
tion to an immensely wealthy one;
from an humble church edifice to one
of the most magnificent in America;
from a plain p irsonage to a grand
one. As his views on dancing are

Our immediate Representative,
Hon. fa. P. Bell, last week intro
duced a bill (H. R. No. 5251) to re
peal an act entitled “An act to pro
vide for the resumption of specie
payments;” which was read a first
and second time, referred to the com
mittee on Banking and Currency,
and ordered to be printed; also a
bill (H. R. No. 5252) to abolish cer
tain internal-revenue officers; which
w’as read a first and second time, re
ferred to the Committee of Ways
and Means, and ordered to be prin
ted; also a bill (H. R No. 5253) to
amend, the internal-revenue laws;
which was read a first and second
time, referred to the Committee of
Ways aud Means, and ordered to be
printed; also a bill (H. R. No. 5254)
to authorize the producers of tobac
co to dispose of the same without the
payment of alPf tax thereon; which
was read a first and second time, re
ferred to the Committee of Ways and
Means, and ordered to be printed.
The legislature, sitting continu
ously since Nov. sth has after passing
a bill or two, taken a short recess
till next July. Obtuse persons may
suggest that our law-makers should
have accomplished more in the same
space of time, but to our mind, the
small amount of business transacted
is the highest eviden. eof their fixed
determination to allow no bill < > be
come a law except after the most
earnest inquiry and careful delibera
tion. However if there is anything
in the point, it is chargeable to the
republican minority which is always
ready to obstruct legislation. We
refer especially to Butler of Camden,
because, in the first place he is a re
publican, in the second he is a nig
ger, so to speak, and lastly he lives
about 300 miles away from here in a
bee line, farther than the rest of ’em,
and therefore not likely to see this
paragraph, or make a fuss about it if
he does.
Bishop Haveu like the blasphe
mous old wretch that he is, iu an
address in New York last month
used the following language; “How
maligned has been that grandest
word of the age—the carpet-bagger.
How Northern pen and tongue have
joined with Southern tongue and pen
in abusiug these martyrs of to-day,
chosen of God and precious. So
have the sons of the world ever mock
ed at the sons of God.’’ This is very
touching, but in spite of it, the aver
age observer would probably make a
decided mistake as to the identity
of these “precious martyrs” should
he see them at roll call. Without an
affidavit of Haven to the contrary,
aud perhaps with it, 119 would likely
consider them a part of a penitenti
ary chain gang, for some reason ab
sent from their post of duty at the
Dade coal mine.
We fail to see the necessity of Ed
munds’ bill or any other man’s bill to
provide for the counting of the elec
toral vote. The constitution settles
that matter. In a certain contin
gency the house of representatives is
required to elect a Presi
dent. It is the judge whoa that
contingency arises. In another con
tingency it becomes the duty of the
senate to elect a Vice-President and
in like manner it del ermines the hap
pening of that contingency.
Miss Louise W. King, daughter of
Judge John P. King, died at her
father’s residence near Augusta last
Saturday. Miss King was well known
in Georgia and elsewhere for her de
cided public spirit, and general no
bility -of character. She was the
originator of the first society for the
prevention of cruelty to animals in
this Slate and in her death that or
ganization loses a kind and generous
friend.
The hope of the country now goes
out in search of the daring man who
will invent something new to be said
in making New Year’s calls.—Cin

Let him only say, “no, I thank you
madam, 1 never indulge.” That will
be a little fresher, if any thing, than
Eli Perkins’ next joke.
Boston turned up on Tuesday all
right in the city election, Frederick
O. Prmce, secretary of the democrat
ic national committee, was elected
mayor. The vote was as follows:
Prince, democrat, 19,546; Cod man,
republican and citizens, 18,000; King,
workingman, 431. Boston is demo
cratic, unless some local issue occurs
to prevent.

This is to certify that I had two hogs af

of Runyon & Co’s compound aud gave it
promptly recording to directions, and now
they a>e well and hearty. Their eyes ave
bright and natural, their hair is smooth and

This is to certify (hat the cho'era fc oke

and gave it, strictly following the directions
I put up five head that wete badly affected,
and gave them the medicine, and now tl ey
eat hearty, their eyes are bright and na u
ral, and they have the appearance of heal

not given the medicine I shouhl have lost a
portion, if not tiie entire lot; aud I would
advise all farmers to purchase a right and
use it. Thomas Rolen.
Cold Mountail, Forsyth Cos., Ga.
This is ta certify that I pui chased a

dy, and before I received my medicine one
of my hogs took sick. I gave it the medi
cine aud it began to improve; it we'l
and hearty. 'Jo the remainder 1) gave the
medicine as a preventive, and no more took
sick. I can safely say that if the di ections
are strictly followed it wall riot fail to give
satisfaction, and I recommend it to all fai>
raers that wish to save their hogs from the
disease. Bukd Martin.
Cold Mountain, Forsyth Cos. , Ga.
This is to certify that (he disease com

eat anything for several days. I procured
too medicine at once, gave it promptly ac
cording to directions, and it began *to im

medicine as a preventive; no more took the

Cold Mountain, Forsyth Cos., Ga.
This is to certify that my hogs were af

when I purchased a farm right to use Run

sick, two of which I did not thiuk it worth
while to make an effort to save; but to my
surprise they are all improving, and I
bought two for a trifle that were bad off,
and they are doing finely. I . feel that I
