Exit Kryzzy!
Our Sunday meditations were much saddened
by tho announcement made in the Washington
telegrams of the night before, that we were to
Civo up Kryzanowski, that sweet saint of m-
tonsest loilty and broken English who has been
supervising the collection of the Federal reve
nue in this State for two or three years pas -
We could have stood almost any other blow, but
this quite unmans us. Kryzzy was one of nur
nets—be was so loyl and so honest. Why, they
said when he came out here, that the whisky
ring » Now York city had caused his removal
from that field because they couldn’t buy him.
Such stubborn virture was preposterous-it was
disloyal, and proper representation being made
at Washington of tho enormity of his principles,
ho was exiled to Georgia to cultivate the man
and brother and make himself generally useful
as a man of all work for Grant. This was his
reputation as we heard it when first our eyes
were blessed with sight of him.
Well, he did cultivate Sambo, sure enough,
proving himself one of the meanest, most vin-
dictivo and unscrupulous of all the gang of Rad
ical incendiaries and malignants ever vomited
upon Southern soil. We havo had somo little
experience with this sort of cattle, but Kryzzy
toppod them all in the lack of every character
istic that ought to belong to an official whose
business it was to show, sometimes, and after
some sort of fashion, that he was the servant of
a government and not of a party, exclusively.
His last appearance as one of Bullock’s election
inspectors in this city last December, is, doubt
less, well remembered by our citizens; when,
by his unblushing, audacious efforts to invite
frauds upon the ballot box by the negroes, he
so ontraged public sentiment as almost to incur
personal punishment at the hands of those who
witnessed his conduct. Since then we have not
heard much of him, but now he bursts upon
our tear-filled eyes minus his scalp, with a New
Hampshire carpet-bagger in the distance hold
ing it up and executing a triumphant war dance
in jubilation over his victory. And saddest of all,
the explanation is that Kryzzy was suspected of
“financial irregularities! ” We shall never get over
that. That a man so thoroughly hateful in every
other respect should tnrn out to be a developer,
too, is more than we can stand. Farewell, Kryz
zy! and may the devil fly away with you.
Tnrner on tire Rampage.
A report comes from Atlanta that “Rev. H.
H Turner,” maddened by the loss of his seat in
the House from this county, and swearing ven
geance against Georgia, rushed before the Ku-
klux Committee in Atlanta, and exhausted his
malice, impudence and capacity for falsehood
in “a testifying speech” before that body. Tur
ner’s evidence, if admitted to the mass of gar
bage which the committee has gathered, will
set the whole collection in a ferment and nau
seate all honest men. Wo shall not attempt to
rival tho American Union and other papers of
Turner’s own party in the South, in their expo
sitions of tho character of this “wretched nig
ger.” They have held him up sufficiently as a
fit representative of whatever is impudent,
mendacious, hypocritical, lecherous and dis
honest—the impersonation of a Northern car
pet-bag negro bummer, who has “made his
pile” by deceiving, imposing and preying upon
those of his own color in Georgia who were ig
norant enough to be deluded by his clumsy ras
cality.
The decision which cost Turner and his fel
low-members their scats in the nouse from
Bibb county was so patently just and inevitable,
that in tho original list of members, prepared
by the Secretary of State, doubtless under the
direction of Bullock, they were never named.
Tho names of the contestants (Messrs. Ross,
Nutting and Bacon) were put upon that official
list, but subsequently erased, and thoso of Tur
ner, Fitzpatrick and Pollock inserted. But we
doubt if the latter ever held certificates of elec
tion—or held them before Bullock’s flight. The
frauds were so notorious—tho testimony elicited
in the official canvass so conclusive, that the de
cision was a foregone conclusion.
A Caucus Nomination.
Wo feel warranted in saying that there is no
good ground, whatever, to justify the very com
mon apprehension of a legislative caucus nom
ination of Governor in event a bill ordoring the
election shall pass that body. Such a nomina
tion although, perhaps, in the outset, favored
by a few members under the idea that there
would not be time to assemble a State Conven
tion, really has no supporters now; and the
final passage of the law will be followed at once
by a call for a State Convention by the Chair
man of the Stato Democratic Executive Com
mittec, who has been invested by the Committee
with full authority for that purpose should the
contingency arise.
We hope there will be no difficulty in the pas
sage of tho bill, or opposition to it by the act
ing Governor. Should Mr. Conley oppose it,
however, it must run the gauntlet of an Execu
tive veto, and that might bo fatal to tho bill in
the Senate. We shall see.
Grand Collapse of South Carolina
Carpet-Racism In Wall Street
It will be seen by the morning dispatches,
that the carpet-bag plunderers of South Caro
lina are in New York endeavoring to cover up
their tracks and secure their plunder. Accord
ing to the World, who has looked into the mat
ter, over twenty millions of State bonds have
been printed and fraudulently issued, for the
negotiation of which, tho financial agent holds
claims against the State to the amount of $4,-
000,000. Scott issues a manifesto claiming that
nine millions of these bonds have never been
signed or issued; but who can believe a word
of what he says ? We fear the old State is gono
up at last—a victim alike to Radical fraud and
tyranny. The best we can hope for is, that tho
monoy loss will fall on the Radicals who back
such wholesale swindling with government bay
onets. Surely tho devil of fraud and villainy
has broke loose, and is raging open-mouthed all
over the country.
lleesrs. CHlTord Anderson and A. O.
Bacon.
The action of these gentlemen in consenting
to serve as counsel for the Stato in the late lease
of the Macon and Western Railroad by the
Georgia Central has been subject to animadver
sion in several instances. We propose to show
the injustice of these strictures: A barrister
or legal practitioner who solicits publio patron
age, tenders his services to the community at
largo. He i3 not in the pay or employment of
any special individual, citizen, or corporation.
Nor has the politics, color, or antecedents o*' his
client any connection with his duties in the
premises. His legal acumen and abilities are
simply offered to all who have need of them and
are willing to pay the customary fee. To assume
tho contrary would, in effect, rule out all per
sons suspected or charged with.criminal of
fenses from the benefits of counsel. Indeed, it
is impossible to arrive at a correct judgment
of tho guilt or innocence of any individual or
the justice of any litigated question upon ex
parte testimony. How, then, can such matters
be determined, save by the employment of law
yers on both sides ?
We hold then, so long as the professional
card of a practitioner is before the public, he
has no right from mere prejudice or disincline,
tion to refuse his legal services to any client,
unless the unparalled enormity of tho case be
patent upon its face.
In thq instance referred to, the head and front
of tho pretended offence is that Bullock was a
Radical, and it was giving aid and comfort to
that party by consenting to act as his counsel
In point of fact, Messrs. Anderson and Bacon
were not retained by Bullock himself, but wore
selected under authority of the State by Messrs.
Niabets & Jackson and Whittle & Gustin, coun
sel for the complainants, to aid in the prosecu-.
tion of the case.
We regard this, however, ns entirely a sec
ondary question. A former decision of the Su
preme Court, sustained by the opinion of learned
counsel, and backed up after elaborate argu
ment by the written decision of Judge Alexan
der, avers that the Stato of Georgia was an in
terested party in this suit. Such being the fact,
was the circumstance that the Executive chanced
to be a Radical sufficient reason to estop all in
telligent counsel from espousing the cause of
their native State?
We are not prepared to subscribe to any
such illiberal dogma. Intolerance is alike rep
rehensible in politics as well as religion, and
we submit that too eften is the real cause of
progress and liberty cramped and retarded by
the narrow prejudices and bigotry of those who
assume to be zealous in their behalf.
Messrs. Anderson and Bacon are as true
Democrats, and as firmly wedded to tho inter
ests of Georgia as any of her sons. They are
'sail* peur—sans reproche.” The above
explanation of their courso in the late suit was
made without solicitation, and as a matter of
sheer justice to two of our most worthy citizens.
THE GEORGIA PRESS.
Card from lion. CHlTord Anderson.
Macon, Monday, November 6,1871.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: I thank
yon and your correspondent for the complimen
tary terms in which my name is suggested, in
your paper of yesterday, in connection with the
office of Governor. I avail myself, however,
of the earliest opportunity to stato—as I havo
heretofore done to the few partial friends who
have approached me on the subject—that I am
not only ineligible, but cannot under any cir
cumstances, consent to be a candidate.
Very respectfully,
Clifford Anderson.
The Gubernatorial Question.
The Atlanta New Era moderates its tone on
the Gubernatorial Question, and says:
Tho resignation of Gov. Bullock took effect
on Monday, the 30th day of October—two days
before the members elect of the present Gene-
tal Assembly convoked for the purposo of organ
ization. It w»s therefore two days before the
present Legislature had a legal existence. It
was, then, during the legal existence of the old
Senate, of which Mr. Conley was President, and
of which he is still a member, ho having been
elected for the long term.
Under these circumstances, the new Legisla
ture decided that Mr. Conley, and not the new
President of the Senate, is ex officio Governor,
entitled to exercise the duties of the Executive,
until a successor can be elected and qualified.
Wo think that, under all the circumstances,
an election to fill the nnexpired term meets with
objection from no one, except only as a legal
question growing out of Article IV, Section II,
Paragraph II of the Constitution. Nor is this
defect peculiar to the new Constitution of the
State, adopted in 1SGS. The same clause, in
identically the same words, occurs in the old
Constitution, Article III, Section II, Paragraph
n.
How to get round this constitutional barrier
is now the question. In our opinion it cannot
be done except upon the hypothesis that the ex
traordinary emergency justifies the Legislature
in jumping over the constitutional obstruction.
Whether the necessities of the case will justify
this, is, as we think, the only practical question
now involved. During the past history of
Georgia, no less than four Presidents of the
Senate became, ex officio, Governor of the State;
and all these served oat the terms for which
their predecessors were elected. Mr. Conloy
makes the fifth; but whether the precedents in
the case of the four vacancies mentioned will
be followed, or a new election ordered, will, of
course, depend upon what the Legislature con
ceives to be the necessities of the case. Should
in [their opinion, this necessity override the
constitutional barrier to the immediate qualifi
cation of a successor, as well as the precedents
in the case of Governors Emanuel, Irwin, Rabun
and Talbot, then an election will be ordered to
take place sometime in December next.
The constitutional question we have hereto
fore alluded to. It is so deficient in merit as
barely to deserve grave consideration. Both
the old and the new constitutions of Georgia
left this question of ordering the election of a
Governor to fill an unexpired term, or of per-
mining the President of tho Senate (as acting
Governor) to fill out that term, entirely to the
discretion of the Legislature. They can either
order an election or refrain from ordering it,
a3 the public interests in their judgment re
quire.
In this case, the disposition to order a new
election is naturally universal among the Dem
ocrats—and why? The State has been well
nigh financially rained by an administration in
which Mr. Conley was an important function
ary. A Governor has just fled from public
justice with whom Mr. Conley is well under
stood to hold the most intimate personal, as he
is acknowledged to hold the closest party and
official, relations. Messrs. Bullock and Conley
havo moved band in hand in the whole lament
able course of State maladministration which
plunged the Stato of Georgia (but lately almost
free of debt) into sea of financial embarrass
ments which will mortgage the labor of tho
people for the next generation. Is it to be ex
pected that he can or will work heartily to de
tect and remedy the wrong—to punish fraud
and extravagance, and to return to the era of a
strict economy and accountability ?
■Whatever Mr. Conley may think to be his of
ficial rights in the case under the constitution,
it is not too much to say that, under these cir
cumstances, a high-minded and patriotic man
should bo the last to insist on the virtual pro
traction of a State administration abandoned by
its chief as incapable of defence or explanation.
He should bo eager, under such circumstances,
to return a trust devolved upon him by the
constitution, to the people.
T. W. J. Hill, the new Secretary of tho Sen
ate, is running a very economical schedule,
having only two assistants—Messrs. T. B. Cab-
aniss, of Monroe, and W. A. Little, of Talbot.
Sam Fuller, a colored disciple of Beast Butler,
thinking that while so much stealing was going
on around Atlanta he might as well have his
whack, broke into the State Road depot last
Friday night and bagged §500 belonging to M.
H. Dooly.
The Atlanta Sun, of Sunday, says that on the
day before, upon affidavit of Charles P. McCalls,
E. F. Blodgett, son of Capt. Foster Blodgett,
who was General Purchasing Agent for the
Western and Atlantic Railroad daring the Blod
gett administration, was arrested and brought
before Judge W. M. Butt. Major McCalla
swore, in the affidavit, that from the best of his
knowledge and belief, he was a cheat and swin-
dler in that: On tho 13th and 2Gth September,
15th and 21st November, and on the 24th and
28*h December, 1870, he did, by and through
artful moans and deceitfu 1 practices, obtain
from tho Treasury of the Western and Atlantio rence.
Railroad $7,411 20. The prisoner waived ex
amination, and gave bond for $2,000 for his
appearance at court, Mr. A. T. Finney becom
ing bondsman.
The Era, same date, says:
Arrest of Ku-Klux.—On the night of Tues
day lest, October 21st, the following named
parties were arrested in Haralson and Polk
counties by Capt. Skiles, Deputy U. S. Mar
shal, on a bench warrant issued by the United
States District Court, charged with beiDg Kn-
Klux, viz: David Lowry, William Fincher, M.
Monroe, James Casey, Thomas Casey, T.
Thomas, and John Gilpin. The party was
brought to this city and lodged in jail day be
fore yesterday. The prisoners were brought
before United States Commissioner Smith, for
a boaring, when the following gave bail in the
Kiim of $3000 each and were released: M. Mon
roe, David Lowry, James Casey and Thomas
Casey. The others failing to give bond, were
returned to prison.
Tho Constitution, of Sunday, says it is ru
mored that Henry Clews & Co., bankers of New
York, havo taken the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad, and will pay off its indebtedness and
make the bonds all right.
The Hon. Solomon Cohen, of Savannah, who
was attacked with paralysis at Augusta, a few
days since, is much better, and was to have re
turned home on Sunday.
The negro woman who was so severely burned
by the non-explosive oil at Savannah, on
Wednesday night, died Saturday morning.
The Advertiser, of Sunday, says Robb, the
carpet-bag Collector of Customs, at Savannah,
reached there tho morning before, and having
learned that “true bills had been fqund against
him by the Grand Jury of the United States
District Court at the August adjourned term,
presented himself to the United States Marshal
shortly after his debut Being allowed to go on
parole, he sought out his bondsmen, all of whom
presented themselves at the Custom House at oase -
half-past one o’clock yesterday and attached
their signatures to the collector’s bonds in the
sum of $5,500. Two true bills were found, one
for embezzlement, for which he was held in
the sum of $5,000, Dr. J. J. Waring and W. M,
Davidson as sureties; on tho second, charge of
conspiring with others to defraud the Govern
ment of public moneys, he was held to bail in
tho sum of $500, General Hei-ry C. Wayne and
A. Gomm as sureties.”
The Southern and Atlantic Telegraph lir.
just established—is meeting with bad luck at
the very start. Two of its operators at Savan
nah—McCormack and Nichols—vamoosed Satur
day night with $1,200 or $1,500 belonging to
tho company. They left only fifteen cents in
the treasury.
The Columbus Sun, of Sunday, Rays:
The passenger train which left Columbus
Friday at 2 p. M., owing to a safety rail being
loose, jumped the track at Blackman’s Crossing,
near Seale Station, Alabama. The engine was
precipitated down an embankment. The en
gineer, Mr. James Curry, one of the most
skilled and careful on the road, had three or
four ribs broken. Mr. Davidson, the fireman,
was killed instantly. Mr. Jones Doras, the wood
passer, was badly hurt. One passenger received
slight injuries. The express car was damaged.
The remainder of the cars were brought back
to the city by the 5 a m. gravel train yesterday,
Thomas Swilling, of Marion county, had his
leg broken, at Columbus, on Saturday, by his
horse falling down.
We find the following in the Atlanta Consti
tution, of Sunday:
L. C. Jones , the Radical Member from Ma
con County.—The following extracts from the
State Road books will show that during the
year 1870 Mr. L. O. Jones, tho Radical member
from Macon county, was in the employ of the
WeRtem and Atlantio Railroad:
December—Pay book 78, page 203; de
duction for one car lumber as employee
of road $ 14 00
November—Pay book 7, page 14;.deduc
tion for two cars lumber as employee of
road 28 00
Atlanta pay roll for December, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for November, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for October, 1870 100 00
Atlanta payroll for September, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for June, 1870 75 00
Atlanta pay roll for April, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for May, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for July, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for March, 1870 100 00
Atlanta pay roll for February, 1870 33 35
Atlanta pay roll for August, 1870 100 00
We understand he has been here as a citizen,
with his family, for tho past two years, is a
property owner here, and now in the employ of
the State Road lessees.
If this is true, by what right does he hold his
seat as a member of the Legislature from Macon
county ? The matter should certainly be inves
tigated.
Clover Cure of Cancer.—The Knoxville
Press and Herald contains a letter from A. B.
Watkins, of Brooks county, Ga., to Msj. D. A.
Carpenter, of that city, stating that a lady of
Brooks county had been completely cured of a
cancer on her right cheek, of eighteen years'
standing, by applying a decoction of clover twice
a day and drinking a quart of the decoction each
day. Mr. Watkins had applied to Maj. Carpen
ter for the clover which worked this cure, and
now writes again for five other sufferers in that
vicinity. J We assume that it is the common red
clover, although the paper foils to mention the
species, or whether it was dry or green.
Gov. Bullock.—The Washington dispatches
to the Western papers contain the following:
Washington, November 3.—Gov. Bullock
doesn’t seem to be meeting with any greater en
couragementat tho bands of tho Republicans in
New York than bo did here. While in conver
sation with a distinguished Republican Senator
of this city, a few days since, he said that ho
was about to resign, in order to escape tho perse
cutions of his enemies. The reply made to him
was that, if he was innocent he would have
nothing to fear and especially with tho National
Administration to back him and to afford him
both protection and redress. By fleeing from
juBtice Bullock has disgusted what few influen
tial friends he had here, and his condact sinco
his abdication has convinced the most skeptical
that he is guilty of all tho charges preferred
against him by the indignant people of Georgia.
Whatever is done with Bullock, it maybe safely
asserted that he will receive neither aid nor
comfort from this quarter. .
BY TELEGRAPH.
FBOS ATLANTA.

Brook, Campbell, Clark, Coiman, Crayton, De-
veaux, Henry and Weloh.
The House resolution closing the doors of the
Treasury against certain warrants, was con

committees were appointed, and under a call of
counties a number of bills were read the first
time. One providing for an election for Gov
ernor; one looking to the reduction of the per
diem of members; and one to repeal the dis
trict court act. Among the bills of general in

The Committee on Privileges and Elections
were directed to inquire into the right of the
following members to occupy their seals:
Colby, of Greene; Richardson, of Clark; Glov
er, of Sumter; Pierce, of Calhoun; and Rumph,
of Wayne. No election was held in tho latter
Colby and Richardson reside in Fulton
A resolution was offered by Griffin asking his
Excellency, tho Governor, to transmit the pa
pers relative to the Sumter contested election.
The phraseology was amended on motion of
Camming, to read “Hon. Benj. Conley exercis
ing the powers of Governor,” as the terms nsed
in the constitution. McMillan offered a resolu
tion on the subject of finance, instructing tho
Judiciary Committee to report measures to pro
tect tho credit of tho State against the damage
done by the acts of the last Legislature. Cam
ming offered a resolution rescinding tho resolu
tion of last session, requiring the Treasurer to
pay all warrants drawn by the Governor and
countersigned by tho Comptroller, and suspend
ing the 20!h section of tho appropriation act,
which was adopted.
A message was received from the Senjte re
porting tho adoption of the joint resolution ox
tending the time for the collection of State
taxes sixty days. On motion of Bacon, the
resolution was referred to the Finance Commit
tee to ascertain tho State’a condition and grant
the extension. Adjourned.

mons' Ku-klux bill was referred .to the Judiciary
Committee with instructions to report for ac
tion on Wednesday. Adjourned
A joint Democratic caucus to-night discussed
the question of publio printing. Many favored
awarding it to the lowest bidder. The caucus
adjourned till Friday night without definite ac
tion.
Candidates for nomination for Governor mul
tiply. Those recently mentioned are O. B.
Wooten, M. A. Candler and J. M. Smith. There
is a strong feeling in favor of tho latter.
It is rumored that H. G. Cole, of Marietta,
has been appointed military Governor. It ex
cited anxious inquiry, but cannot be traced to
its source, and is not creditable.
Washington, November 5.—The President’s
instructions to the federal officers were that they
should be firm, but judicious, in the enforce
ment of law in Utah, and there should be no
compromise with criminals. The latest official
reports represent all danger of a collisioi*over,
The President has no present intention to fur
ther suspend the habeas corpus in the South,
unless a condition of affairs similar to that in
certain South Carolina counties occurs else
where. Parties interested in the manufacture
of tobacco and whisky are strongly urging upon
the Commissioner of Internal revenue various
recommendations npon these subjects, bnt it is
not thought ho will, in his annual report, re
commend any material changes to Congress.
Cotton Movements for tbo Week. -
New York, November 5.—The cotton move
ments were large in receipts—the total being in
excess of any previous week this season. Ex
ports for the week were less than ono-half the
amount for tho corresponding week last year.
The to'-al movements f jt the expired portion of
tho eoiton year, show a considerable falling off
as compared with the same time last year. This
is due, in part, to tho scarcity of monoy in tho
South to move tho crop. Tho receipts at all
the ports for the week, were 96,708 bales, against
Mrs. Hosea Jones’ Lecture.
The Norwich Advertiser says that Mr. Hosea
Jones having gono to Chicago and got home
again in arather worn-out condition, Mrs. Hosea
Jones loctnres him noclumally as follows:
“Yes, you went, didn’t ya; went unbeknown
to us, didn’t ye; sneaked off with your bag
gage in a pill box ? It’s a mighty wondor yon
wan’t struck down in your dreadful awfulness.
Didn’t yon feel our hand on your shoulder like
the clutch of a skeptic? But you will get your
sw^^^^ou'ont^dichi’t 1 they ?^ ha^ha^ haT^ Jf W
yer had a had any hair on yer old pate, it would
havo singed it off. Bnt yer so mean that hair
won’t grow on ye anyhow. Yonr soil is too poor
to raiso pusley.”
“Mrs. Jones,” broke in Hosea.
“Don’t yer speak, yer beast. If yer speak
I’ll smother yer with the baby. Pretty hot,
was it, hey ? It will bo better by and by for
sioh as yon as rnns away from their wives. Try
ing to get up a sympathy because you lost yer
baggage. I’ll tell tho publio what it was. One
reversable shirt, four paper collars, one tooth
brush taken on trial. Flames chased ye, did
they ? They were ayenglng my wrongs ?_ Went
huogry, did yo ? Good—wished it had trimmed
ye to a skeleton. Went thirsty, hey ? Better
still. You suffered more from thirst than hun
ger, I’il warrant. (‘ You are right in your head,
old girl,’ Hosea wispered to himself.) Got your
blamed old eyes full of dirt, did ye ? That’s
what you got for throwing tho dirt into mine.
Like to have got kicked ovor by a mule, didn’t
yo? Neodn’tbeen afeord. Mules never hurt
one another, you ”—
At this point Keno’s voice was heard.
The First Divorce.—Had Noah been a resi
dent of Chicago, and had there been a fire in
stead of a flood, ho would not havo budged
from his fire-proof ark till tho dove of good
omeD, in tho form of a newsboy, had borne him
tidings of tho first divorce suit as a proof that
the flaming flood had abated from off the faoo
of tho earth. It is liko tho blowing of old
breezes and tho ringing of old bells to hear
again that we are being given in marriage and
divorced, as wo used to bo in tho Consulship of
Plancus, when yet tho fires had not abolished
matinees, restaurants and deliriously dangerous
flirtations with ’kerchief and fine eyes, through
the plate glass on the avonucsor the parlor door
at the hotels. The first divorce suit has been
entered and we are once more a city. Tho
names of Amanda B. Chaffee, plaintiff, and
John B. Chaffee, defendant, will hereafter shine
in our records, conspicuous as those of the first
Mayor and tho Original Settler. They are writ
ten here with reverence, and the Table-Talker,
with rare genorosity, forbears to observe that
tho defondant’s husbandry appears to liavobeen
imperfect, and that the chaff he most affected
was the product of a crop of wild oats.—Chicago
J Post.
64,097 three weeks since. Total receipts since
September are 459,111, against 542,745 for tho
corresponding period of tho previous year—
showing a decrease sinco September 1st, of this

South Carolina Slaughtered,
New York, November C.—Tho World states
that tho entire State government of South Car
olina is in New York. Tho American Bank
Note Company printed twenty million in bonds
for H. £L Kimpton, the Financial Agent of tho
State. It is said that Governor Scott admits
the bonds were printed, but denies that all were
issued; but he does not state the amount issued.
Kimpton, it is asserted, brings a claim against
tho State for services and commissions amount
ing to four millions, and other Stato officers havo
not dared to resist payment thereof, though
much of it is for renewals which wera credited
as to commissions on new loans. It is said these
commissions more than swallowed tho original
oan. Tho expenses of tho last Legislature were
$800,000, and" havo not been paid. Tho World
concludes by statiDg that its information is from
a source outitling it to tho highest credit. The
persons giving it express tho cofident belief that
a fraudulent issuo amounting to $20,046,000 of
State bonds ho3 been negotiated and the money
misapplied, and are convinced that if it should
prove that the State is involved to that amount
it will be irrevocably insolvent.
Manifesto of Governor Scott.
New York, November 5.
To the Public : Many falso representations
and statements havo boen made and published
against the credit of the State of South Carolina^
It is true that $20,204,000 of bonds havo been
printed, which amount $9,000,000 havo never
been signed or issued, nor wera they print
ed with the intention to increase the Stato
debt, but are in possession of the State author
ities. Also, $3,500,000 in sterling bonds have
been printed bnt not issued. $2,500,000 of
registered stock are now in the hands ot tho
Treasurer of the State—being the balance of
$5,040,000 issued. The Legislature, from time
to time, passed several acts for the issuo of
bonds to pay tho indebtedness of the State.
Subsequently, it passed an act for the conver
sion of its securities. To provide for this, the
abovo amount in bonds was printed, which has
given rise to many groundless misrepresenta
tions and gross fabrications.

When the Leaves are Turning Brown.
Never is my heart so gay
In the budding month of May,
Never does it beat a tune
Half so sweet in bloomy June,
Never knows such happiness
As on each a day as this.
When October dons her crown,
And the leaves are turning brown.
Breathe, sweet children, soft regie’s
For the vanished violets-;
Sing, yon lovers, the delights
Of the golden summer nights;
Never in the summer hours,
On my way such radiance Bliowers.
As from heaven falls Eoftty down,
When the leaves are turning brown.
Braid your girdles, fresh and gay,
Children in the bloom of May,
Twist your chaplets in youDg Juno,
MaideD, they will fade too soon;
Twine ripe roses, July red.
Lovers, for the dear one’s lio&d;
I will weave my richer crown
When the loaves are turning brown.
A Propliecy Fulfilled.
A short time ago (says the Knoxville Pres3
and Herald,) a remarkable verification of ono
of Horace Greeley’s prophecies, twenty years
ago, was noticed by the press thronghout tho
country. Greeley may not be a prophet, nor
tho son of a prophet, but still another predic
tion of tho Tribune, more than eighteen months
ago, is being so accurately fulfilled in each
Southern Stato in succession, that it deserves
attention.
In Juno, 1870, ono of the editors of the Tri
bune—probably Greeley himself—3ent from
Washington, the following, which was published
at that time in the Tribune:
“The manner in which partisan telegrams
from tho South havo been manufactured and
published in the North, to further the personal
designs of unscrupulous and ambitious men
was well shown np on tho developments brought
out in reference to the Washington Chronicle
during tho progress of the recent Georgia inves
tigation. Tho same game is now going on in
connection with the internal affairs of other
Southern States. It is believed that tho ensu
ing elections in tho South will result, in some
instances, not perhaps in tho defeat of tho Re
publican party, but in the defeat of certain in
dividuals who aro and have been using that
party as a means only to their own selfish ad
vancement. Forseeing this, the effort is to get
np an excuse to declare martial law, and local
newspapers in tho interest of the men alluded
to aro teeming with accounts of ‘outrages.’
This is particularly tho oase in North Carolina,
and no surprise need bo felt at a daily dish of
horrors from that State, served up in tho Chron
icle; ‘ for,’said ono of the North Carolina sen
ators, ‘wo intend to nso tho military, and in
justification, wo must get these statements dis
seminated through tho North.’ ”
Tlie Amenities of Politics—IIow One
Presidential Candidate “Goes” for
Another.
George Francis Train who is, as all the world
knows, an independent candidate for President
against tho field, made one of his rip-staving
norations at St. Joseph, Missouri, ono night
last week. Tho followicg extract will serve
both to show Georgo’s style, and also what he
thinks of ono of his opponents:
Grant is tho most gigantic sell ever played
off on an outraged peoplo. [Sensation.] Ho
is an ignoramus. He thinks Lafayette came
from Germany and the Hessians from Franco.
[That’s so.] Hence he sided with a rotten em
pire against a live republic. [Hissc-s.] Don’t
hiss him; he don’t know any better. I never
see the General that I don’t feel like saying:
General. I’vo only five minutes, tell mo all you
know. [Laughter.] You might as well try to
light a wet squib as to get a popular cheer for
tho great dead-beat, dead-head, bribo-taker!
[Sensation and applause ] His passage through
the East and West is a funeral cortege, with
Morton, Butler, and the official thieves as pall
bearers. [Sensation.] His own party swallowed
him as they would a doe3 of salts and senna.
[Laughter.] Tfcey are ashamed of him. His
ignorance, his nepotism, his disgusting habits,
aro minutely portrayed by Sumner, Tilton and
Phillips, once his bosom companions. [Laugh
ter.] Greeley and Butler loathe him, while the
party obliges these professional hacks to sleep
with him. [Laughter.] A fast horse, a short
six, some rot-gut, a tan-yard, a big steal, and
stolid stupidity make up his grand total.
[Hisses. ]
Fatal Panic in a Colored Clrarch—Nine
Women and T«o Children Trampled to
Death.
Louisville, November 6.—Last night a ter
rible accident occurred in the Colored Baptist
Church in this city, by which several lives were
lost. The church"is a two-story frame building,
arranged for worship in either story, but tho
upper room i3 handsomely fitted up, and was
occupied last night at the timo of the accident,
by a large congregation. Tho pulpit is in tho
rear part of the room, and there is a small gal
lery in front of tho choir. Two narrow stair
ways, each probably four feet wide, riso just
ins'ido the main door of tho buildiDg, and lead
np to tho room. Tho floor is supported by a
row of pillars, extending from front to rear of
tho lower story. It appears that these pillars
stand over tho space between the lower joists,
and rest only on tho thin plank of the fieor. At
about 94 o’clock, after tho colored pastor had
concluded his sermon, and while tho collection
was being taken up, the pillar supporting the
floor immediately in front of tho pulpit gave
way, and tho floor sank a little, with a crack
ling noise. Some one in the andience shouted
“tho church is falling down,” and immediately
tho panic-stricken congregation rushed for the
doors. Tho preacher and one or two others,
who retained their presence of mind, endeav
ored to cheok the tumult, and started a hymn,
but without avail. In the wild stampede, wo
men and children were crashed in the jam, or
knocked down and trampled under foot. The
panic lasted but a few minutes, yet in that time
eleven persons, nine women and two children,
were killed, and a large number were seriously
injured.
FRANCE.
Tbo Revival of Communism—Activity of
the Communists In Paris—Secret organi
zations—Bolt! Aspect of tbo Leaders—In
creasing Unpopularity of tho Thiers
Government, etc.
Paris, November 3.—The comparative peace
and safety which have been enjoyed since the
fall of the Commune and the establishment of
order and government, are again in imminent
danger of being broken. The prosecution of
the Communists by the government of M Thiers,
notwithstanding its general thoroughness, left
many members of the late Commune in this city
undisturbed. Since traffio has been resumed
and tho railways opened, large nambers of per
sons, seoretly suspected of Communism, have
returned among others who left daring the gen
eral exodus. These, through fear of the gov
ernment, havo until lately kept themselves in
partial seclusion, organizing, however, in secret
and awaiting the opportunity. Many of the
most notorious leaders who escaped the vigi
lance of the troops and government agents are
believed to have returned and to be now in
Paris.
The present insecure state of the Thiers
Government, its increasing unpopularity in
many quarters, and the vacillating condition of
tho country on tho question of fature govern
ment, all occurring at tho present junoturo,
havo contributed to produce tho desired oppor
tunity for attempting the re-establishment of
the Commune. Tho Communists are now aban
doning their former timid, cowed and abject
attitude, and aro boldly availing themselves of
tho opportunity to revive tho revolutionary
spirit among the citizens, and to exoite them
against the government. The majority of the
populace who favor law and order are seriously
alarmed at the new developments which have
taken plaoe, and it is probable that a strong and
determinedopposition will be made against any
attempt to revive the Commune by force of
arms. The government is aware of the emer
gency, and will take all possible precaution
against the re-establishment of the Communal
reign of terror whioh at present threatens to be
renewed in a more bloody form.

GRANT AND THE KC-Kltj,
Tbo Inevitable Ku fclax—What the n
dent lino tvs abont the
Objects or the Invisible Empire.
Tho New York Herald, of Friday, has th »
lowing: *
Washington, November 2,1871
Attorney General Akerman had a loco'
ferenee to-day with the Secretary of S‘ n f. C0: '
afterward with the President. The sublet
tho interviews was, of course, the everhtH
Ku klux question, involving the pnnhhmert 1 *
tho persons recently arrested in South Carol'
and perhaps tho promulgation of a new
mation. It was tho original intention of
Government to follow np the suspension of m
habeas corpus in the nine counties of So ,
Carolina with a similar movement upon Km?
era Georgia, and as most of the yonno men*?
pected of Ku-klux affinities who ran avail
the former State took up their abode in the
ter, it is not improbable that they will be so™,’
on the move once more. 60<l ®
Akerman is not a man of sufficient calibrst,
engage tbo attention of tho President for t*!
hours in ono day, unless important matters 1
to be decided in whiuh the Executive need-s
tho information his law adviser can afford Vj
Just at this moment it is a matter of great?
terest as to what the President knows or thith
he knows about tho Ku-klux.
It is asserted by thoso who ought to km*
something of the character of the informs'" !
communicated from timo to time to the IW
tivo that ho has much more direct knowledge«
this subject than even that possessed bj i?
Congressional Committee. Gentlemen of pA
character, formerly officers in onr army
were and are oven now living in the sW?
having learned through their supposed DaS
cratio sympathies important facts relative to ft.
secret purposes of this organization, hare au!
him acquainted with tho danger to its f.«—
extent. 1
The officers of tho United States Secret Ser.
vice have been and still aro very active iaW
reting out tho klan. The danger to which thejtre
exposed in this service renders it necessary fty
great caution be exercised in making their om.
rations public. These officers are not knownij
each other, and as a consequence it often kip.
pens that tho most efficient men are reported U
others as being Ku-klux chiefs. It will beskoij
when the facts all come out, that the Kn-khi
in South Carolina havo been largely fnmisitj
with arm3 from Northern sources. It is even
asserted that au examination of the shipment
from the arms manufacturing companies of ft.
North, and especially of New York, for the Us
two years, will show a great activity ia ft.
Southern trade.
It is the opinion of the administration ed
those who sustain its policy of repression thi
it is tho design of the Invisible Empire to <-
tempt the repossession by tho old rebel elemea,
first, of tho several Southern States by the &.
moralization, through terror, outrage and mu.
der, of the party sustaining reconstruction irj
its results, and secondly, by similar means, ta
more general and systematic in character, It
force every Southern State to vote against th
Republican Presidential nominee, and thus re-
store to them control of their local and Stab
affairs and tho inauguration of their party asa-
ciates in the government.
A contingency for which they have undonkt
edly worked is, in tho event of Congress refe
ingto-connt electoral votes gained bysncbi
palpable system of terror and violence as the
Ku-klux will inaugurate, to at once raise th
standard of revolution within the Union, de
claring that the refusal is only a step in a pre
arranged plan to keep the power in the baidi
of the now dominant party. There is no dostt
in the minds of the best informed persons here
who havo investigated the character and pur
poses of this conspiracy that such a designs
that, indicated is seriously contemplated.
Opinions like these havo influenced theconse
of the President toward South Carolina, end
have led also to tho doom which is now impend
ing over Georgia. It is given out that the mess
ing of the supplementary proclamation, which
is now in preparation, is to correct the blunder
by which Union county, South Carolina, ns
included in the repressive edict instead of 11s-
rion, but there is no doubt that the prediction
in the Herald some days ago that Georgians
the next State in order will be verified inadi;
or two, and other sectior*j will bo treated inti*
same way, as the President thinks tho occ&sa
may require. Senator Scott is now here and*
work, and be is as sternly in favor of 8bfl|
measures as ever.
