Thr Qallman Banner Abroad.
Th.-it popular, uncompromising Demo
cratic journal, tin? Sana/nnah Mowing
Nnrs, and which has lwen for years the
leading organ in the State of Georgia of
the time honored Democracy, in its issue
of .Saturday last, refers to the Quitman
Banner in the following very emphatic
manner:
“The Quitman Banner comes to us
this week in an elegant form, and prin
ted on new English type. We are glad
to Mis; this evidence (if prosperity. The
Aannkk has always fought in trie, front
ranb in the many long and trying oam
tevigns in which the Southern people
have engaged against Federal oppression,
and it tirsows the most substantial sup
j*>rt and encouragement from the peo
plt* in the section in which it is Ipuhlish
ed.“
. We fed grateful to our esteemed co
tdnporary for this just, and manly vindi
cation of our jiolitical course; and feel
sanguine that its sentiment will be
echoed by every honorable journalist in
the South, conversant with the editorial
career of the Editor of the Banner, since
the year 1852.
As regards the pusillatiimous'action of
the so-called “Deputy Sherifl" of this
county, the Morning News has the fol
lowing :
“The Deputy Sherifl <>f Brooks county
has taken the Sheriffs advertising from
the Quitman Haulier. The Banner pro
tests against the prorccdihg, but in our
opinion the editor does not state the
cane strongly enough. The Deputy Sher
iff no legal right to change the. Sher
iff’s advertising from one publication to
another, and we t rust that whenever the
proposed change is made, the editor of
the Banner will tile an affidavit of ille
gality, and thus test the matter in the
courts. Thu case will la; a very interest
ing one."
The Neirs is assured that the matter
will bo thoroughly investigated, and made
“interesting" in more respects than one.
THE PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.
This m w secret organization is cre
ating great excitement throughout the
Northwestern aud Southern States.
What its real design is has never been
fully explained, hut it is conceded that
it is for the mutual benefit of the farm
ing community; to protect them from
powerful monopolies, to dispense with
middlemen and deaf directly with the
manufacturer, and also to establish a
price for farm products.
The Louisville Courier Journal (which
has evidently investigated the matter)
says that the movement had its origin in
lowa, in consequence of the opposition
made by the large manufacturers of farm
ing implements, such as reapers, thresh
ers and cultivators, to the co-operative
clubs formed by the farmers in some lo
calities for the purchase of the imple
ments at wholesale prices and on better
terms than they could buy them sepa
rately from the local agents of the manu
facturers. The Jliirmers were naturally
anxious to save the profits, on some ar
ticles very large, which they had been
]>aying to the middlemen, besides the
protit which was made by the manufac
turers. The agents rebelled against this
combination of the farmers, which in ma
.nv localities would have cut down their
profits from a large sum to almost noth
ing, and their dissatisfaction led to a
combination of the manufacturers, who
agreed not to sell below fixed prices for
the respective implements, and refused
to sell directly to farmers in places where
they had regular agencies. The farmers,
meeting this new difficulty, resolved to
establish a general secret organization of
all jiersons in their calling, under the ti
tle of Patrons of Husbandry, and the
new Society began to spread about ns
fast over the Northwest, including lowa,
Illinois, Minncssota, Wisconsin, Indiana
and other States as rapidly as the tire
kindled by the brand of on Indiana hun
ter ever spread through the dry grass of
a Western prone. As the new order be
gan to establish its “granges,” or lodges,
in all directions, and the farmers, seeing
their increased muster-roll, for the first
time began to realize that they had a
majority of the voters of the country.
Among other important matters, this
order demands of capitalists facilities for
the transportation oi farm products, at
such rates as will enable the producer to
realize some recompense for his labor.
As to the determination of tin; members,
during the past winter the lowa farmers,
rather than slap their surplus corn, and
pay oxhorbitaut freight tariffs, used their
surplus for fuel.
“Granges” Arc now established
- throughout the country, and their num
l„-r is rapidlv increasing and the move
ment has certainly demonstrated to tin
tillers of the soil of America, that the:
can dictate to and control every other
-interest. And, in our judgment, the
sooner they exercise said power, the bet
ter it will is' for the country. We are
willing to trust the future government
of America to the sound judgment and
practical good sense of the farmers.

The Revolution in Lonisinnn.
The condition of affairs in Louisiana j
is very much to be regretted. Neverthe
less, the honest masses who are resisting
the usurpation and tyranny of tho Kel
logg usurpers, are perfectly justifiable in 1
the line of policy pursued. The intelli
gence and properly holders of the State
are entirely without representation in the
affairs of government; and acting upon
the principle, that “taxation without rep
resentation" is anti-republican, they have
determined to resist tho collection of
taxes. For this purpose they have or
ganized in every parish, and, at no dis
tant. day we feel sanguine that the tid
ings will be flashed by electricity, that
the good and true people of tlial radical
accursed State are on the tented field,
illustrating the principle, that “resistance
to tyrants is obedience to God. They
have, time and again, appealed to the
Federal Government for protection a
gainst the infamous rule of adventurers—
they have petitioned for the privilege of
I managing tlicir local affairs, as unto them
j seems 1-est for the material welfare and
I happiness of the commonwealth—they
have laid before the Washington Govern
ment evidence of the enormity of the out
rage to which they have been forced to
submit—they have given expression of
j lovalty to the Constitution and laws of
i the United States—they have entered
! frequent, earnest and manly protests
| against the bayonet government of Kel
; logg. who was installed its Chief Magis
! mite in defiance of popular will — but all
|to no purqmsc. An infamous Executive
! dared not rebuke the infamy of a subor
-1 dinate. The President and his advisers
have turned a deaf ear to every petition
! for justice and every representation of
i oppression, aud continued its aid and en
couragement, to the vile horde that hits
fastened its enormous faugs on to the vi
tals of a once prosperous and contented
but now suffering Commonwealth.
Under these circumstances, honor aud
self-respect forces the true men of Louis
iana to organize for defense, and if press
ed to the wall hy the bayonets of a hirl
ing soldiery, to—
'•.Strike for their altars and their Hres—
For tho green graves of their Hires—
For God and their native land!”
The conflict at St. Martinsville is only
the beginning of the revolution; and if
the true men of that State had only to
contend with tho cowardly minions of the
Kellogg government, in less than thirty
days the revolution would prove a grand
success, and the disreputable horde bo
driven beyond the boundaries of Louisi
ana, or their vile and festering carcasses
be buried beneath the surface of her soil.
But they will lx; required to contend with
the entire power of the United States
government; and consequently, their
cause—the cause of justice and liberty,
right and honor —is almost hopeless. To
enable the Federal government to pres
ent a plausible excuse for interference in
the affairs of asovereign State, the charge
of treason has been preferred against
Louisiana’s most prominent son —her
rightful Governor, McEnery. Os course
this, as truly remarks the New York
Tribune, “is the brick of a demagogue,”
but it suffices as justification for garri
soning the State with Federal troops.
Kellogg, in his letter to the U. S. At
torney General, assumes that the riot in
New Orleans on the sth of March, and
the slaughter on the banks of Red River
on Easter Sunday, were connected inci
dents of an armed conspiracy by McEn
ery and his supporters, to overthrow the
government; and consequently he direct
ed that a prosecution be instituted a
gainst McEnery for treason, or “levying
war against the commonwealth.” Any
where hut in Louisiana a proceeding of
this kind would be ’ ridiculous; hut Mr.
Kellogg, as admits the [Tribune , has al
ready done such extraordinary and unex
ampled wrongs through 'the mediun of
liic courts, that we cannot pronounce any
perversion of justice too gross to be pos
sible in thuja: tribunals. The behavior
of Gov. McEnery, under the usurpation
which:deprives him of Jhis office, has
commanded general sympathy through
out the country. He has lost no proper
occasion of assorting his rights, in a
peaceable way, but lie lias always urged
his followers to refrain from violence; and
although tho origin of the riot on tho sth
of March is not known, we may say that
it was so directly at variance with McEn
ery’s polity, that the probability of liis
connection with it is extremely remote.
As for the Grant massacre, there is prob
ably no mail, North or South, who imag-
ines that McEnery has anything to do j
with it. Mr. Kellogg himself does not
believe bis own accusations. He 'speaks j
of it us “the result’’ of McEnery’s “trea- i
sonabte acts against tho State Govern- ;
merit,” UVe know* »n the contrary that j
it, was the result of Kellogg’s own usur
pations, the direct fruit of that antipathy
of race which he has done more to foster
tlmn nny other man in the South. Ho
bus taught the blacks that with (law or
without it, with votes or without them,
it is their privilege to rule the conquered j
and humiliated Stato. He has taught j
the whites that for them the ballot-box j
is no protection, and the courts are closed, j
By an act of pure despotism he has set j
up au ignorant minority in power, in-1
traded them into all the offices, given
them full liberty to tax and to steal; and
the educated majority he has kept down
with the bayonet. A bitter antagonism
between the two classes whom he has
thus arrayed in hostility was the inevita
ble consequence.
What will lx; the end of this terrible
condition of affairs, we have not the heart
jto contemplate. The sympathies of all
1 honest men are, with the tried and suffer
ing people of Louisiana, anil we yet trust
they will he freed from the usurper’s
rule.
A TEH It I»1.E TK AGEDY.
A Man Kii.i.ed by his Step-son—Just
ifiable Homicide.
One of the saddest social tragedies *we
I have ever been called upon to record, oc
curred on Monday night last near Social
Circle.
The parties to this terrible affair were
a Mr. J. T. Phillips,a farmer,living about
five miles from Social Circle, and his step
son, n boy about sixteen years of age, by
the name of Turner. Yeung Turner is
poorlv grown for his age. Phillips is
represented as having been a man of had
character, who came from Habersham
countv to the settlement in question, and
married the widow Turner. This young
! man and two daughters thus became his
j step-children.
■ He immediately began to treat the
girls bnitallv, and not long since was in
j uaroerated in jail for his bad treatment
of one of the young ladies. Last Mon
■ day night after supper, and while the
| family were preparing to retire for the
i night, Phillips commenced giving the
! girls instructions as to what they should
•do next day in a very abusive manner.
! Young Turner interrupted him, saying,
i “Don’t talk to mv sisters that way.’
I Phillip replied, “Pll throw my shoe at
j her,” and suiting the action to the word,
j did throw it at her—missing her, howev
j or. He then began to abuse the young
| man, who, at firs time, was pairing his
! toe-nails with his pocket-knife. After
abusing him as much as he thought fit,
he run at young Turner and tried to cut
1 him, when thov grabbled. Phillips suc
ceeded in choking his youthful antago
nist down three times. While he was on
Turner the latter commenced operations
i with his knife, and kept cutting until he
succeeded in inflicting a mortsd wound.
After receiving hia death-stroke, Phillips j
bent Turner’s neck backwards, raised his j
knife and said: “G—d d—n you, I’ll cut j
your throat.” He would have put this J
threat iuto execution, but for Turner’s
sister, who threw her arm between her
brother’s neck and the descending knife,
receiving the blow on her wrist. It is
thought her arm is rendered useless for
life by the wound thus inflicted. Phil
lips then got up, walked to the door and
fell dead. The Coroner's jury pronounce !
the act of the young man ‘‘justifiable j
homicide.” He is willing to surrender |
himself to the authorities for trial at any j
time. No one who ‘knows anything of j
the circumstances, attaches any blame to j
the young man.
For the good of society, we wish never j
to hear of a like case again, and think
tyrannical stop-fathers may well flake
warning by this bloody lesson. —Atlanta
Herald.
Gone Again.
A dispatch from the Lava Beds, on the
10th inst., says that the Modoc Indians
again surprised the U. S. troops, and
have now certainly disappeared from
their field of triumph. On Tuesday of
last week, they captured a U. S. Quarter
master’s train, embracing three wagons,
eleven mules and three horses, and
wounded t hree of the soldiers in charge.
Captain Jack then gathered up bis plun
der, squaws and warriors, ami inconti
nently left the Lava Beds, riding on for
ty captured and stolen mules. Os course
Gen. Davis and his soldiers were surpris
ed at the escape of the terrible Modoc,
hut as he was afraid to attack him in his
stronghold, it is presumed the General is
now happy.
BRIG HAM YOUNG a’.Nlirf HRI NDI A Ns.
A correspondent of the Omaha Herald
on ihe 9tb inst., interviewed Brigham
Young, and obtained his views of the In
dian question. Young said that in 1847
he settled in Utah with 140 souls, and
for four thousands of miles around him
the land was infested with hostile Indi
ans. He gained their friendship by act
ing honorably with them, and never
stooping to deception. When ho made
a promise he kept it; that the hostility of
t he Indians had been augmented by rob
l*»rie» committed by unscrupulous agents
of the government; that they had Install
faith in the honor and integrity of the
government officials; that the Modocs
did to the Commissioners just, what they
thought was being endeavored to be done
to them, and that peace should be made
at any cost,, or the entire West would be
embroiled in a general Indian war.
"A WAR OK RACES.”
The New York Sun of the 7th thinks
that the efforts of the Administration and
the Radicals are rapidly culminating in
a war of races, and considers the situa
tion in Louisiana at length in a very for
cible article. This “war of races,” it
seems to us, is taking the shape of a mor
al, rather t han a physical war. It will
gradually seggrogate the races, giving
the blacks territory to themselves by the
expatriation of the whites from certain
districts and perhaps States; and in these
Mr. Africanus can work out his own des-
tiny, which it is easy to forecaste for
him. It is quite certain that the whites
will not live with the blacks on terms :utd
conditions which outrage nature, and
which it is the policy of the Radicals to j
enforce.— Macon Telegraph.
