That’s just tho way to talk if you wish a Rad

snoh criminal croaking to influence them, we
are sorry for their future. But we aro consoled

A^’aix. Fr.ou Mir.iLA.MD.—The Baltimore
American, one of tho most trooly loil journals
of the scalawag pattern published anywhere,
relieves its lacerated feelings by the following
wail:
The fact stands out patont to all that even
with the addition of the colored vote the party
is in a minority in every county in the State,
alone accepting Anne Arundel. The prejudice
which is entertained against the voting of tho
colored people contributed more to our defeat
than all other causes combined. The negro ha*
proven to he an dement of weakness and not
of strength, and it will take time to educate the
masses up to an appreciation of tho justice of
his enfranchisement.
The Virginia State Fair opened at Richmond
oa November 1st. The President, Maj. L T.
Suthcrlin, made a short address of welcome, in
which he congratulated the audience upon the
presence of so many visitors from the North,
and said Virginia would welcome them as set
tlers within her borders. Jefforson Davis, who
was present, was loudly called for, and made a
brief address. • Gen. Jubal A. Early and other
ex-conftderate generals were on tho ground.
The Telegram informs ns that Gen. Schenck
is in New York suffering from a monster car
buncle on the left cheek, which has entirely do-
slroyed one eye and obstructed the vision of
ths other. And then wo are told that “he is
reticenton thesubjoctof the Englishmission”—
just as if a man could possibly care a con
tinental demnition for the English, Irish,
Scotch, or any other sort of mission, while
floored by such a carbuncle as that.—Courier-
Journal.
Gen. Lee rarely slept in n house—never out
side .of his lii.es—during the war, and when on
the march some convenient fence corner wonld
be his most frequent place of bivouac. The

stylo at some hospitable mansion, while near-by
the Commander-in-chief wonld bivonao in a

Tbs remarkable phenomenon of a rain show
er of five days’ duration, and confined to a
cemetery lot at Mobile, Alabama, in which thir
teen members of the same family have been in
terred, was witnessed last week by upward of
two hundred persons. It continued night and
day, and at no time dating its continuance did
rain fall anywhere else in the neighborhood.
The Moral or the Election.—The St. Louis
Democrat, (Rad.), sums up the results and mor
al of the late elections as follows:
The moral of these elections is simply this:
The administration of General GranthAB so dis
satisfied the people that it is already plain that
any party attempting to ran him will he igno-
miaionsly beaten in 1872, nnless he shall do
something to recover public favor.

yon children, I’ll tell yon what it is: if yon

ain’t afeerd of ’im. Why, that’s father!”—

The Bnlloek Organ at Atlanta has the audacity
to uae the above caption to an article charging
extravagance upon Governor Jonkina admin
istration. The impndence of the charge is only
equaled by its shamelessness and ntter lack of
truth. Itis charseterfstieof the source, however.
It is a trick as old as thievery itself. From time
immemorial, it has been the fashion for the
robber, with his pockets full of plunder, thus to
scok to divert suspicion from himAelf by throw?
ing it upon other and innocent parties. The
organ says Gov. Jenkins increased the State
debt $4,000,000 in two years. True, bnt as the
Constitution says, nearly all of it went to rebuild
the State Road, that had been totally destroyed
by the war. And after your administration had
been in possession of the road, getting it m good
order, for over two years with the best business
it ever enjoyed, yon have so run it down as to
make it necessary for yon to beg for half a mil
lion dollars to put it in order, and that without
paving a dollar into tho Treasury in eight
months. And $004,000 of that Jenkins debt
Gov. Bullock received himself from the Bank
of the Republic in New York, and hat used.
' But how about the three miU'ons and a half,
of bonds issued by Governor Bullock in the last
three months ? How about the State credit be
ing so degraded that one million and a quarter
of bonds was issued, and only two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars so far paid into the State
Treasury of the loan ? How about nearly two
million of gold bonds issued to pay four hun
dred thousand dollars of debts due and falling
due?
Bullock spent $12,800, without vouchers, in
fifteen months for the “incidental expenses of
the Executive Department,” against $350 for
Jenkins with vouchers, "Who is tho plunderer
here ?
Gov. Bnlloek has spent over $70 000 for extra
printing in two years, against $1,070 a year for
Jenkins. Who has plundered tho tax payers on
this score ? •' j
Bollock has spent $23,531 in feeing lawyers,
the most of it for legal work that should have
been done by the Attorney General, who gets a
large salary. We have no item of .the sort
against Jenkins. Who digs the tax-payers here ?
Balloak spent $32,333 for Executive clerk
hire in twenty-three months, against $9.4C2for
Jenkina in the same time, and against $8,575
for Gov. Brown. Who has plundered the tax
payers on this score ?
Bollock spent $1,157 for oil and candles for
the Executive Department for six months,
against $50 by Jenkins. Where does the rob
bery lean here ?
Bollock spent $1,530 40for coal insixmonths
for his office, agaiast $432.50 by Jenkins for
wood.
Bullock spent $1,095 01 for Executive postage
in six months, against $071.90 for Jenkins.
BaUockspent$0,SC3 02 for Executive station
ery in a year and a half against $3,543.88 by
Jenkins in two years.
Bnlloek spent $232 000 nnder the special
“service” section of the appropriation act in
twenty-one months against $7,412.19 by Jenk
ins in two years. Who has the best of this
plunder?
Bat let ns recapitulate for the benefit of the
tax-payers.

To sum it all up, this economical Radical
Governor who arraigns Governor Jenkins’ Dem
ocratic administration for extravagance, has
spent of the pnblip money over these hundred
and bixtx-five thousand dollabs more than
Governor Jenkins, in less time in his Radieal
administration of State affairs in nine item
alone.
Now tax-payers, Bnlloek says Jenkins plunder

The mementons issues qf tins canvas» de
mand that those who export the rottenness and
rascality of the Radical plunderers who are beg
garingfthe tax payers of Georgia, shall call things
and men by their right namos. These tax pay
ers are fighting for bread and meat and a shel
ter for their wives and little ones. They most
whip the fight, and ront the plunderers, or
stand a strong ehance of losing these necessi
ties. They stand face to face with a gang that
seeks their absolute ruin, and whose canning
and audacity are only matched by their greed
and malignity. To fight them effectively gloves
most be polled off, and gentle words ignored.
Remonstrance, argument and appeals are
thrown away on men who have made brigand
age a power in polittos, and whoaa rule la mark
ed by iniquities and villainies without a parallel
sven in the history of Radical domination at
the 8outh.
There is bnt one way to deal with these
creatures. We most (nil them names they
have won by their evil deeds, and patbt
them in colors blackened by their own corrup
tion. They have plundered the people, and
they should be called plunderers. They have
swindled and defrauded the treasury, and they
should be proclaimed swindlers. The prase
must 1st .the people know just exactly who they
are, what they are, what they have done, and
what they intend to do. Tho fires of public in
dignation most be heated red hot and kept so
until they are politically consumed. This is
the boanden duty, as we understand it, ef ev
ery honest journalist in Georgia. We call upon
them to rally to tho work. Let tho people see
who is in earnest, and who is not, in the noble
duty of driving ont the plunderers, and saving
the pocketa of Georgia tax payers from farther
spoliation. Let the people see what effect the
soothing syrup of Bullock proclamations has
had upon the nerves of those who eall them
selves Democrats, arid who profess a desire to
restore the Slate to the rule of honest men. Let
there be a showing of hands. Have we a sec
ond? '
Not Entirely Correct.
We have authority for discrediting, in part,
the Washington telegram that appearod in a
city cotemporary yestorday, relative to the ob
jects of the visit of Messrs. Cameron and De
lano to Georgia, this week. It is represented
to us by those in a position to know, that they
eime here this time solely on private business,
and not as “stumpers” for tho Radical party.
We should suppose the result of the reoent elec
tions— in Maryland, Delaware and Kentucky,
especially—was anything bnt encouraging to
that sort of basinets in the Southern States.

Georgia Hmt Join Alabama and
Florid*.
Wo insist that Georgia shall not go back upon
her sisters, Alabama and Florida. They have
just extricated themselves from the elntehes of
the spoilsmen and oppressors who were beggar
ing the people and crushing ont all life and
prosperity, and Georgia most take her stand
with them. She has even greater interests at
stake than they, and more cause to drive ont the
plunderers from her borders. In both those
States there bas been less Federal interference
and Congressional manipulation, and neither
of them has been the especial object of Radical
wrath because of an adverse majority to the
small souled tyrant who rules at Washington.
Georgia has been turned over frr the venomous
will of a cold-blooded, remorseless official who
assumes to represent her in the Cabinet, and
with all the mean malignity of a renegade ho
has done bis best to invest her in chains. She,
therefore, stands, as compared with her neigh
bors, in the attitude of a political Cinderella.
She has many more wrongs to avenge, and mnch
greater incentives to a desperate struggle to
throw off her yoke.
We call upon all honest men in Georgia to
bear in witness that this is a true statement of
Georgia’s condition, and we demand that they
subordinate all other business to that of chang
ing it. If men do not caio for themselves they
should care for their families. If they are so
oppressed by the cares of bnsiness that they
can’t take time to save their own pockets from
future and farther depredations, they ought to
take it to rescue their wives and childron from
the horrors of tho fata that awaits them if Rad
ical rule in Georgia is perpetuated. We see an
apathy in Some localities that is both disgrace
fully selfish and ruinously sbort-s ; glited. It
must bo shaken off, or we might as well give np
the fight in advance, and bow onr necks to an
indc-flube bondage. It shames us to think
there are any men iu Georgia whoso blood does
not fire np and their nerves thrill at the thought
of making Georgia's record as glorions as that
of Alabama and Florida. It shames ns to think
that there are any men in Georgia who need a
greater stimulant to heroic endeavor than is
found in the splendid victory their brethren in
those States have achieved. We fear that such
men are not fit for liberty or its sweets, and
that the hnsks of serfdom, eaten in the peace
of death, are, to their depraved appetites, pref
erable to the richest frnita that grow in the
garden of freedom and self-government. We
do not think there are many such, but we fear
some are to fonod here and there. *
To these sluggard* we call with a voice that
they must hear and heed, if they have any man
hood left. They are dreaming and dozing on
the brink of rain—ruin they may avert, and
which will be their fate solely because they will
it so. We beg them to forget that cotton is
down, and money is scarce, and cares oppress
them, and go in to make a square, winning
fight against those who are revelling in riohes,
while they pinch and save and grow poorer
everyday. We tell them that a perpotnation of
Radical rale in Georgia will send cotton still
farther down, still farther disorganize labor,
and bring them nearer beggary. We tell them
that nothing short of such a consummation will
satisfy the plnnderera who ran the Radical ma
chine in Georgia. They are determined to beg
gar the property owners and tax-payers, first,
and then degrade them by robbing them of the
last vestige of a right to eall themselves free
men. Can’t these men see all these facts as
plainly as we do? Why, they are as plain—they
stand ont with as ngly and' immoveable promi
nence as the most loathsome objects in nature
do to the naked eye. We have been facing
them for more than two years, and until their
herridlineamenta an thoroughly familiar.
Bat Georgia mnat and will respond with a
shout of viotory to noble Alabama and gallant
little Florida. She will take oonrage from their
example, and rising in afcjwr grand strength,
destrovw onee and foreverfiFJ*»*ije enemies.
Sheyfian do no less and saveherse

A General European War Imminent.
Onr telegrams this morning are highly impor
tant and-exciting. It appears that a war, which
will wrap all Europe in flames and call to the
field of strife two or three millions of men, is
on the eye of breaking ont. The pretensions
of Russia, and her evident intention to avail
herself of. the war between Prussia and France
to sieze snoh parts of Turkey as suit her ambi
tions purposes,’have alarmed England, Austria,
and Italy, and they are rallying to the support
of Turkey. There is a strong conviction that
Russia takes this step with the full knowledge
nud sympathy of Prussia, and tbit they have
concluded to throw down the ganntlot to all
Europe combined. Such a contest will possibly
involve, before it ends, every civilized nation
in the wotld, bnt its issue cannot be doubtful
As it is a crusade on the part of Russia and
Prussia for mere national aggrandizement, and
■gainst peace and civilization, they most inev
itably be overwhelmingly crashed by thoee who
fi^ht for those great ends,
other result, ttceems to us.

The Constitution, of yesterday, illustrates

helpless invalid ever since. From what we can
learn EL was a fuithfnl servant He applied,
we understand, to Governor Bullock for help,
and although suffering, and in a pitiable condi
tion, the Governor, who takes such great pity
on convicted and unconvicted criminals as to
pardon them, tarns a deaf ear to tho appeals of
a taithfnl servant, and justifies his ref usal by
charging EL with drunkenness. Humanity
wonld scorn to treat a faithful servant of nDy
kind in this manner. But the burglar, mnr-

seration—the faithfal servant his neglect.

“It yonr personal honor shouldevcrbe assailed,

Correspondent—Did yon proclaim the repub

Bazaine—No, such a declaration wonld have
paralyzed all action. I could then have counted
no longer npon my best troops. When my tpies
brought to me the abominable doings of tho
6:h of .September,- I 'sent inquiries to the
Price * to know whether it was true. I will
confess it dvd not believe eyen him until he
transmitted mo a copy cf the Journal Ofilcid.
I then told my soldiers that the Emperor was a

Correspondent—Do yon ascribe to yourself
any victorions engagement daring the siege?
Bazaine—No; victory ictelades of necessity
tho ultimate result of an engagement. I have
whipped the Prussians often and severely, bnt
the final result was alway unfavorable to me.
Correspondent—Hanger forced yon at last to
opon negotiations ?
Bazaine—Even if it had not keen hunger, I
would have done it. One day I learned that not

Lyons, and Marseilles. ' One day I learned that
the army was insulted, and the memory of men
reviled whom I venerate; bnt it was hanger^
and nothing but hunger. Yon wcnld have been
mtstaken were yon to think I took the respon
sibility npon myself, I acted only as the execu
tive of the council of war, whose members as
certained the opinions of the generals, colonels,
and majors of the army previous to making up
their votes. After the bread rations had been
reduced from 500 to 800, and then-to 250 gram
mes per day, I was informed by Gen. Cuffin-
ierep, on the 9th of October, that the stores
would not hold out longer than a week. Now

N.tembeb 16 —Evening, 1876. * j
Cotton—Receipts to-day, 927 bales; sale* 929;
•hipped 833 . . •
Receipts for the week ending this evening 4,708
biles: ea’ee 4,423; shipments 4.523.
The market during the laet week has generally
ruled firm with an upward tendency, and prices this
evening ate a full Jjc higher than they were on the
Lte of our last nretkly review.
The market t^-day was irregular. It opened
■toady at 14«f for middlinge, bnt soon the demand
toned down a little and the market wae heavy for a
ftw hours, when it again revived under the noon
reports from ether markets. On the reception in
the aftemoou of the news of a threatened gcno-al
European war, buyers became very cautious and the
maiket closed unsettled and quiet at 14%—
the best calling for the latter figures.

Tho general trade of tho city has been moderately
good during the week under review, bnt the low
prico of cotton is still exercising a depressing influ
ence npon traffic of all kinds. In grocery and pro
visions, trade has been limited to some extent by
light stocks—particularly cf bacon and bulk meats.
It will be some weeks yot before the new stock df
bacon is in market, and the old may be said to be.
about exhausted. Bulk meats are now coming for
ward, bnt as yet prices have experienced no change.

on the 12th of October, when it was nnanimons-
ly resolved that by the 14th I must commence
the steps of capitulation. I now requested per
mission of the prince for Gen. Boyer to go to
the headquarters of the king. It was granted
after some delay. Yon have certainly seen in
print that his mission resulted in afailnre.
Correspondent—What were the orders given
him by your Excellency
Bazame—I proposed to march out with my
armv; to' pledge our honors not to fight against
him in this war, and to be permitted to convene
and protect the French chamber against a sec
ond attempt by the mob, or, as Bismarck nam
ed them, htreet loafers. I detest politics We
only wanted to do what Gauibetta did—re
establish onr loyalty by calling together the rep
resentative body.
Correspondent—What did Bismarok say to
that?
Bazaine (here taking up a document from
the table)—You may read all that was said at
the conference. It is from General Boyer’s re
port, bnt you must refrain from publishing it.
I do not know whether I can allow that. The
Count is likely to attend to this matter himself.
I hurriedly ran over the document, but the
marshal’s instruction prevents me from stating
more than the gist of the oontents. Bismarok
seems to have agreed to Baxaine’a propositions,
hut Moltke rejected them. He believed the
marshal conld Dot allow the depature of hie
troop* who would then materially strengthen
the forces of the Franc-Tiraurs. Bazaine ra
Burned conversation and said :
I have yet to tell yon that a council of war
had expressly enjoined of me that I bad no an
tbority to make peace, which should be solely
the province of the government acknowelged by
the chambers. On Ootober 18, we held another
council of war. Gen. Gofiinieres then reported
that the provision* wen all used up, and,
though that was really the case, I still held ont
eight days longer, midst indescribable suffer
ings. - The last council was held on the 26th,
when it was resolved to eapitulate in order to
save more loss of life. One of the conditions
wav that the honor of the army should remain
unsnlliaL We obtained its acceptance, and our
terms an better than any allowed to troops who
have oapitolated during this unlucky war.
Correspondent—Waa there no ohanoe what
ever to make vour way out? -
Bazaine—None, does whatever. Our artil
lery horses had been slaughted, and our eaval
ry horses, and the troops ware deepairing.
Correspondent—How large have been yonr
losses since August 14?
-Baaaine—Our casualties, not counting the
sick and missing, amounted, in the Rhine army,
to 24 generals, 2,140 effioers, and 45,339 men.
Look at the bole in my epaulette ! Why did
not this confounded splinter of a grenade go
deeper ? I wonld not have ontlived my reputa
tion as a solJier, nor wonld L as a Frenchman,
have known that day of everlasting ignominy
—the 4 th of September.
Correspondent—How many of the 173,000
men who surrendered at Meta might have yet
been called in fighting order.
Bazaine—Perhaps 00,000; but,- without ar
tillery and cavalry, what could they do against
200.000 opponents in the very strongest posi
tion and fortification ?
Just- here the marshal was interrupted by a
messenger from the Emperor at Wilhelmshohe,
who wished to see him. He bade mo good-bye,
with the remark that I should pay him another
visit. “Yon may oak me questions till dooms
day,” he said, jokingly ; “I shan’t tire answer-
ing them, truthfully at that. In conc’uaion. I
may yet mention a funny communication made
by Bismarck to Gen. Bojer at the aforesaid
conference. Gen. Burnside has just returned
from Paris,” he Raid, “and has given me a de
scription of affairs inside, char cteriz ng the
city as a madhouse inhabited by monkeys.”
Died or His Wound—We noticed a day or
two since the Sbrions injury a negro man named
Gus Redding had received on the head at the
hands of ono or two other negroes, when en
gaged in a fight. We learn that he haB since
died of his wound, which was inflicted with a
brick upon the temple, thrown from the hand
of a negro named Love Another negro, known
aa Squire^ Clark, is cha-g-d with being implica
ted in the ranrder. Clarke was brought before
Justice Sohofiald on Tuesday afternoon, on a
charge of an ai-sautt with intent to murder, and
after hearing the evidence he was sent to jail to
await his tridl before the Superior Court, owing
to the precarious condition of R-dding at the
time of the preliminary trial. We learn that
there is bnt little testimony against Clarke. Love
ia still ut large.
