The first Tuesday in October, the
Sixth day, is set apart for the meeting
of the Houston County Democratic
Executive Committee. In view of the
elections, one of which comes off next
day, important matters will be before
the body. In the meantime the mem
bers, as well as every true Democrat,
should be at work, The time is
short. Let every one talk to his neigh
bor, and let all repair to the polls ear
ly and stay late. Hundreds of .Radi
cals will attempt to vote who have not
paid the taxes, and many , who biave at
some time been convicted of larceny
or felony. Let the organizations at
each precinct be perfect, and put hon
est managers at the polls, and stern
men as challengers who will do their
•duty and shrink not. There must be
.-a police to guard against strife and
.suppress riots. Lot nil plans be ar
ranged and carried out smoothly and
faithfully, and success is oi r;. Unit-cl
we cannot but succeed.

mass of official villainy.
Let the bandits run riot and the
cries of their innocent victims echo
over the land; and soon the. patriot
hosts of every section, that- have been
put to sleep by the infernal drug of
fanaticism, may be awakened.
We are truly loyal, not- to the party
in power, but to our country’s liberty.
The following extract from an edi
torial in the New York Tribune, will
show the sentiments of the Northern
Conservatives. Read it. .
1 General Grant has vanquished the
people of Louisiana. He has tele
graphed to his generals and his admi
rals; he, has. set the army, and navy in
mption; and the lawful government of-
Louisiana surrenders. If there was
any doubt before as to the character
of the usurpation which rules the uu-
uappy state by favor of the President
—any question whether the p.ople
really acquiesced in it—there cun be
none now. The outrage stands out
henceforth in all its naked deformity,
an unpardonable crime against popn.
lar suffrage and the sovereignty of a
state. A government which the peo
ple loathe and despise was forced up.
on Louisiana by the soldiers of the
President. Left to themselves for a
momeht, the people threw it off and
installed the officers whom they had
regularly chosen at the polls, The
deposed intruders made no fight; they
were as helpless aud cowardly as chil
dren in the presence of the indignant
people; but cowering behind the shut
ters of the - Custom-house they tele
graphed to the President. “The peo
ple have putns out; this is your job;
come you and put ns back.again.”
T.wo years ago Grant yielded to the
bad advice of his disreputable asso.
ciates, and installed Kellogg at New
Orleans, by fraud and force, because
he wanted tlia electoral vote of the
that there are now three mills in op
erati/n, two very large one's building,! Shite, which a, majority of the voters
and by next summer six or eight
mills will be running, employing near
ly two thousand hands. The mine
known as the big aqueduct mine pur
chased by Mr. Hand, of Ohio, wilL
be one of the • largest in this section
of the country. The aqueduct alone
cost- §500,000. The power of the mills
willrange from twenty to forty stamps,
and each stamp can pound twenty
tons per-day. One gentleman' has a
mill that cost about §1.5,000, can
pound one hundred pounds of ore per
day. At a cost of about" twenty dol
lars. -The ore of this mine averages
had giveu ’to the other side. That
wicked deed lias brought forth a full
crop of crimes. We have seen him
dispersing a Legislature at the point
of the bay onet, expelling a legitimate
government with threats of martial
law, and reversing the coarse of jus
tice by the scandalous support of a
perjured epurt. His old friends have
exclaimed at the iniquity of these pro
ceedings and warned him to desist.
The hottest partisans of his adminis
tration have denounced the. wicked
usurpations of Kellogg and Duieli with
an indignation tliat does them credit.

Sgbibneb's Monthly for October
opens with another magnificently ill-
lustrated “Great South” paper, by
Edward King; entitled ‘ ‘Down the
Mississippi—the Labor Question—Ar
kansas.’’ It contains much pictu
resque description; and practical in
formation. The important essay of
this, number is a very careful study o f
George Elliott’s novels, by W. C.
Wilkinson; Mr. Cable, the i ew Or
leans story-writer, gives us another
characteristic sketch of life in the
American Paris. Jules. Vine’s “Mys
terious Island,” is continued. In
“Topics of the Times,” Dr. Holland
writes about. Mr. Beecher, the pres
ent theological outlook.
In the November' Scribner a new
story by Saxe Holm will begin, to
run through three or four numbers.
Sr. Nicholas for October opens
jjith a bright story by Mrs.R. H. Davis,
nvlcch is followed by a splendidly il
lustrated article on Egypt by Mrs.
iSara KeableS Hunt. “Venus’ Flower
Basket” is a description of tho glass
asponge, with a picture that is posi
-tively wonderful in the delicacy of
its execution. The serials “Fast
Triends,” by J. T. Trowbridge, and
“What Might Have Been ^nsgfed’’
by Tteji xv- Stockton, are concluded-

m Febaary, .1873, to declare the pre
tended election of Kellogg nul and
void, and to turn him but of office
The President himself finally admitted
in a special message to congress that
so maiiy forgeries and frauds han been
discovered that he was not sure of
Kellogg's title. An official investiga
tion proved the rascality of the whole
transaction beyond any possibility o
denial. But-the President would:'not
halt. He must carry out his original
crime to its natural consequences, and
the inexorable logic of events has led
him to this crowning shame. For the
first time in the history of the United
States the soldiers of the Union are
employed to drive out
Govenor and place a miserable pre
tonder-rm 'tlrey State-DotiSg’db'shoot
down in the streets the people who
may.refuse to obey him. For this
disgraceful and disheartening specta
cle the congress which - refused to act
j on the Louisiana report, and the Re
publican party which tacitly approved
the wrong, are both to blame; but it
is upon the-President- that the chief
responsibility must rest—the Presi
dent who began the long course of
oppression—the President who could
have stopped it'at any moment if he
had chosen, and could stop it now
the President who is probably the only
man in America not ashamed of the
whole business, and who comes for
ward-in the midst of it asking fora
third term. ' ' • ‘ - ^ •
at this time was a more coincidence;
not affecting the other rings, or af
fected by them.
I saw an article in July purporting
to berirbin some skillful astronomer,
which predicted, the mnvements of the
comet, then visible. I watched the
comet with the predictions in jpew,
and I found them verified until it got
too near the sun to be longer visible.
I could, however, infer that since the
predictions were true up to that time,
they would c mtinue to be true
tlirougnout. It was predicted that
the comet would cross the line be
tween tbe eartli and the ~ sun on the
21th of July. I noticed also that the
tail of the comet was thought to be
hollow. It wlis generally believed to
be curved with the convex side to
ward the earth.
By the time, therefore, that these
.ring3 appeared, the comet had had
time to pass a little to the sdinih and
west of the san. Its fcul was turn ed
Was turned toward the earth, and was
in such a position that we, in looking
at the end of the tail, siw a ring, in;
the neighborhood of the 3un. Then
looking np into the curved' hollow
cone, a second ring -in another, posi
tion; and in still a different position,
we saw the third ring.
I think therings were eliptical, with
the major axes ui the positions shoWn
in the figure, approximately. This I
think was from the fact that we were,
no^ looking perpondicularlv into tjie
hollow cone, but somewhat obliqiely,
and this obliqueness may have been
necessary to the formation of the
rings. Hence .they lasted <nly a
short time, passing out. by degrees;
and. on; by o e, as the comet moved
its ; o ition.
The diagram is drawn from memo
ry, without having measured any of
the angles or fixed any of the posi
tions except by my eye,- but I. think
it shows aboat the correct positions of
therings. ' Respectfully,
