TUe Martial Law Dilemma,
That sanctimonious Aminadab Sleek, of the
Northern Celvantotie persuasion, Senator John
Scott, of the state of Pennsylvania Central B. K.
has been as effectually treed as was the famous
ooon by Captain Martin Soott. After returning
from his unholy mission to South Carolina,
where he made good use of hie time and oppor
tunities to stir np the negroei against the
whites, and indie them to all manner of “loyal’'
deviltry, be hastened to the dominion of the
railroad aforesaid to see bow the Baffieal cause
was faring. He found it in bad case, indeed,
with certain defeat awaiting it at the October
poll. Without some dedded measures it was
good as d. d- and d. before the vote had been
cast. So Soott scudded to Washington to toy
hi* loyal head on the Administration’s sympa
thetic (and receptive) breast, and ask for help.
He averred that only one thing oonld save the
faithful in his State. The war fever must
raised somehow, or everything’was gone to dem-
niUon smash. The salt of the Kn-klnx Com
mittee report had lost its savor, probably be
came the people had been gorged with it They
refused any longer to breakfast, dine and sup
on it, aa was the pions intention of those who
sat it before them. They refused any longer
relish the unctuous horrors of negroes roasted,
negroes boiled, negroes stewed, negroes fried,
negroes skinned alive and eaten without salt
account of their loyalty by the South Carolina
cannibals. In short, they had spewed out the
thing with great loathing.
But, quoth Soott, if the administration will
only give it the fresh ssnee of official endorse
ment ty declaring martial law down there, the
people will resume it as an article of daily diet
—they will breakfast, dice and sup on it again,
and be to filled with loyalty by election day,
to go to the polls and elect ths Badical ticket
For Grant to hear was to sympathise, and
sympathise was to set, and straightway his mar
tial law proclamation was annonnoed as forth
coming.
But, ad interim, np comes from tho rebellions
district a declaration that onght to npset Scott’s
calculations, and which squarely nails his false
hoods to ths counter. The country and the ad
ministration is informed through a manifesto
addressed to him, that, since his return from
the district over which he asks the setting up of
handcuff and the bayonet rule, there hat not
been a tingle cate of violence or outrage, and
this solemn declaration certain loyl persons
whose veracity, of course, is above question,
append their names! Scott’s own friends over
their sign manuals tell him in plain words either
that he it a falsifier, or that he has consented
to endorse the statements of the anonymous
liars upon wbsse representations he calls for
martial law, snd the indicting of nntold horrors
npon thousands of his oonutrymen.
This is the whole story in brief, and now let
as see what Soott snd his sympathetic friend
Long Branch are going to do abont it. Martial
tow in Booth Carolina seems necessary to carry
the Stato of Pennsylvania Central Bailroad
October, bnt martial law founded upon allega
tions, the mendacity of which have been
riddled by indignant and invulnerable truth,
may cost Scott’s friend the Presidency of the
United States in November, 1872.
We are enrions to see bow the Badical cat
will be made to jump so ss to catch both rats.
How Long has .Mr. Tinley Been n “lie
pabllean 7"
We would like very mnch to know bow long
Mr. Tinley, the Bepnblioan candidate for Sen
ator from this district, has been a member
that party ? And we would like an answer from
those who pnt him on the track. Bat before
they tell ns, we want to tell them “aomedings,’
ss oar Teutonic friends say, in ths shape of
series of interrogatories. Do they know that
Mr. Tinley was an active, eager candidate, last
fall, for nomination for the Legislature by the
Democrats ? Do they know that he worked hard
for it, carrying around Tinley tickets in a box,
and endeavoring to persuade everybody to take
one 1 Do they know that be brought his friends
to the meeting to work tor him, snd that they
did work for him so zealously that he only
failed of the nomination by a few votes? Now
what hat changed Mr. Tinley’s views ? We pnt
it to those who nominated him. Don’t they all
know that if there had cot been an office to fill
they wonld never have beard of Mr. T.’s Repub
licanism ? Can’t they see that this case of con
version is too sadden to excite anything bnt
suspicion ?
When did, snd for what has Air. Tinley joined
understand that he will not oome to Chatta-I the Republican party? Was there, can there be
nooga, bnt will stop at Cleveland. In oonsider
xtion of the fact, we adviso the several tavern-
keepers of that city to hold themselves in read
iness to entertain s whole brigade of Chatta-
noogiana, for them are some people in this city
who wonld trsvel farther to see Stanton than
an Arab wonld to eee the tomb of Mohammed.
Vxnr Arrxonna.—’There was s marriage in
Chattanooga high life on the 6:h, end the happy
oonple left at ones for a tonr in the Eastern
cities. The bard of the Times drank inspira
tion or whisky at the wedding, snd perpetrated
the following:
"On her lover's arm tho lent.
And round her waist she felt it fold;
And far across tho hills they went,
In that new world which is the old.
Across the hills and far away.
Beyond their utmost purple vine;
And deep into the dying day,
The happy princess followed him.”
Auattr axb Gru Uailuoad.—A telegram
from the Albany division of thiaroad announces
that it is *11 right and doing boainesa as nsnah
Tn* Sroiuc in Joxrs Oocxtt.—-We are sorry
to learn from a Jones county friend that the
late storm was destructive in that county. So
far as beard from three bridges had been carried
svrsy. A mill snd workshop in course of con
struction on Coder creek, by Messrs. Pound A
Marshall, wai swept away, together with all the
accumulated lumber and materials, snd even
the carpenters’ took. A good deal of fencing
was blown down and floated off. A great deal
of oom was loat and injured—particularly com
which was heavily fruited. The violenoe of the
wind prostrated it in tho submerged and wet
fields and tho bottom land crops wero in good
part overflown. The water was higher in the
creeks than ever known before, snd the uplands
have been badly washed and gullied.
BxcxrrxoN or tbs Washouts Dxuboation.—
The World reporta that the Vannouthors were
received very coolly at Long Branch. The
Presldentflitly denied some of their statements,
snd stamped his foot snd brought his fist down
heavily on the piano at others. The Warmonth
blithering were half white and half black—ten
of each.
The National Democratic Executive Resident
Committee at Washington have published a let
ter in which they denounce an anonymous
pamphlet, entitled “Concession, or How the
last Cense klsy be Regained,” and declare
their belief that it waa coneocted by Radicals
to serve a base Radical election purpose.
Political Paosrzcn in Pxnssilvania.—The
advice* received by the National Committee at
Waihington aa to the Democratic prospects in
Pennsylvania were of the most flattering char-
eeter. The Radicals of that Stale were repre-
seated to be in a most helplead, demoralized
oondtUim, with their leader, fighting each other
for a division of the spoils.
Tax Cotton Caor.-The best information
from the South in relation to the cotton crop,
(says a Washington dispatch of the 6th, to the
Courier Journal,) to that the yield this year will
fall far short of that of 1870, owing, in the flint
place and mainly, to the decreased acreage
planted in'ootton, and, in the second, to the un
favorable season. The ootton factors of Au
gusts, Ga., have estimated that the present crop
no* exceed 3,000,000 bales. This estimate
Z^ m **r hnrriedl y- bnt after careful inves-
ef thirty-two SS'° pini0n
business. bwiuemea engaged in the ootton
any other reason for this change than a desire
to got offloe ? . We have made diligent enqniiy
and can find nobody who ever suspected Mr.
Tinley of being anything bnt an anti.Radical,
until there was an election ordered for Senator,
and more particularly nntil the Republican Con
vention was abont to meet at Forsyth.
Now, lot those who are supporting him aa
Radical or Republican, give ns any other reason
for their faith in him. If this sort of lightning
conversion to allowed to atnke a man, what be
oomca of the good old doctrine of probation ?
The leader of the party—in this county at least
—is a staunch Methodist, we hesr. How does
he got his consent to repudiate this good old
rale? If this sort of thing goes on what is to
become of the veterans—those who have been
serving in the ranks from the start, without money
and witbont price, if an eleventh hour recrait
is to stop in when an office is to be given oat,
and coolly bear off the prize ? Really, we should
like to hear what they think abont it
Bibb Count* Bnroata.—The Commissioners
of Bos da, with Judge Gerry, examined some of
the injured bridges yesterday. Parker's Bridge,
over the Tobesanfkee, they found pretty mnch
intact, somo distance down the stream, and will
arrange to have it restored all right for *200.
Bailey's Bridge can be repaired in a week for
*100, and they will order the work done
once. Walnut Creek bridge is totally gone.
This bridge was 400 feet long, snd 25 feet above
ordinary water height Notwithstanding this
fact one of ths benches was found a mile or
two down stream, another in a field ten miles
below. The bridge most be built at once, and
the commissioners determined not to wait for
proposals bnt to make the beat bargain they
oonld, and to have the bridge replaced in thirty
days at farthest
The party, in the oourse of their observations
saw strong evidence of the tremendous height
of the water and foroe of the current At Wai'
nut creek they found where a tree a foot in
diameter had been snapped off by the rush of
water npon aocnmulating drift which had lodged
against it They were unable to find a single
till of the bridge. The bridges on the Ooonee,
we are glad to say, are aU right.

Native and FonnoN Population.—’The totals
of the census show how foolish have been the
apprehensions of those who have felt alarmed
at tho influx of foreigners into the oountry.—
The censns tables place onr native population
»t 32,989,437; foreign population at .',5Cb,4G6.
Thus, the native j-opulntiou is seven to one, and
that majority will increase rather than decrease.
Wbnt One or tile Fathers of the Kndlesl
Party Thinks or It Now.
At the State anti-dramshop convention, held
at Syracuse, New York, G. 0. Leigh, of New
York city, was made President, and on taking
the chair made s speech from which we take
tho following cheerful extract:
Ho had been onoof the fathers of the Repub
lican party, but was obliged to confess that the
management of that party, especially in bis sec
tion of the State, was left to as great a set of
scallawags and villains as ever cursed any party.
The leaders of the Republican party there were
bought and sold by the Tammany ring same
as beefsteaks or chops in the market. The only
hope for the temperance cause, he said, was
separate political action, relying on prudecoe
for results.
That's just exactly whit every decent man
thinks, and yet the trewly loyl roll their eyes
and howl “traitor” and rebel at everybody who
puts tho thought in words.

The Columbus Enquirer, of Friday, says:
Clbabxkq Ur.—The last of the Georgia and
Florida eyclones passed over this city yesterday
morning, after a continuous rein and blow of
nearly 36 hours. This is the third and longest
touch of tbe equinoctial storm which lias visited
ns this season. None of them, however, have
resulted in mnch damage to onr section. On
the contrary, the fine reins have given a won-
derfnl impetus to potatoes, peas, collards and
tnreips, and the like, and probably have not in
jured cotton mnch, as there is comparatively
little open.

The Atlanta Sun, of yesterday, gives the fol
lowing details of a bloody affray in that city on
Friday:
About two o'clock yesterday afternoon,
most bloody and serious stabbing affair occurred
at the comer of Marietta and Broad streets, in
which James Little was fatally stabbed by one
Benton O’Neal. The weapon used was a largo
bowie knife, tbe blade of which measured eight
inches in length. The cut literally disembow
elled LitUe, who fell after walking a few steps.
O'Neal was arrested and carried before Justice
Johnson, who committed him to jail. A pre
liminary trial will be had before him this morn
ing at 10 o'clock. It appears that the to two
men were formerly partners in the painting
business, bnt had dissolved tbe copartnership.
In settling np their old bastness there was some
disagreement, which resulted in a lawsuit Yes
terday they met at ths above named comer,
when an altercation occurred with this sad re
sult Both are comparatively yonng men, and
have families. Little has s wife and three tittle
children, and O'Neal has only a wife. At dark
last night Little was alive, but no hopes wero
entertained of his life.
Latest.—Little died at 20 minutes past 12
this morning.
The Atlanta Era, of yesterday, has along ao-
connt of one of the most scoundrelly affairs
we have heard of in a long time. It seems that
man named Robert Ranzy, abont three months
ago, made his appearance at Flat Shoals, Geor
gia, sixteen miles from Griffin, and succeeded
in making the acquaintance of a most estimable
widow lady, Mrs. Reeves, who has three chil
dren by her first husband, aged respectively,
sixteen, fifteen, and twelve years. Ranzy, who
was a man of engaging manners and snbtile
tongue, plied his soit diligently, and finally
married the widow, on the evening ofthe Gth in
stant, in dne form, at Flat Shoals. He plied the
fancy of the lady with the most enticing vis
ions of wealth and happiness, and, among other
things, told her he was the owner of a fine farm
near Selma, Ala., with a beautifully furnished
residence, in tho parlor of which stood, ready
for the touch of her lily white hands, a grand
piano that bad cost him *1,000. Believing all
he said, the happy spouse and her new lord left
Griffin for Atlanta on the 7thinat,, (Thursday,)
arriving here at 2 o’clock P. if., and patting up
in the waiting room of the Union passenger de
pot, having represented to her that she should
want for nothing, and ho wonld supply all de
mands. She had converted all her movable prop
erty into cash, and wonld have sold herfarm,had
it not been bound up by law, so that she could
not control it Like a good, serviceable hus

bles, and had charge of the baggage. He
checked her baggage for Kingston, on the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad, immediately npon
the arrival of the train at the depot, leaving his
wife and three children in the waiting room
while be went to tbe baggage car. He left the
room on this business witbont a word, and this
U the last sho saw of him or the baggage and
the mono j. 'When the State road had started

and a telegram sent to Kingston to stop the
