THURSDAY MORNING. NOV. !>. 1871.
TIic Elections.
The Northern end Western election* have
nenlted in nearly e total smash of the Democ
racy. The State of New York is lost by twenty
to thirty thousand majority, end by elmost e
two-thirds Kedieel mejority in both brenchee of
the Legislature. The Western States here gen
erally increased their Radical majorities. New
Jersey has elected a Democratic Governor, by
ruse in of having put ont a very strong candi
date, but the Legislature instated to be Radical.
These rssnltaapj»rentl, open » clear field to
the Grant Radioala for 1872, but they may pos
sibly turn ont to be nnfortnnate in their con
sequences to that party. An excess of
strength is dangerous to a discordant party,
while the mere hopelessness of sneoees on the
part of the Democrats may induce combina
tions dangerous to Grant.
Is another view of the matter, these elections
ara very unfortunate to the Southern people.
Construed, as they will be, as a popular en
dorsement of the tyrannical and proscriptive
policy of the Administration against the South
ern whites, we may expect to see that policy
carried ont with a bolder and more relentless
hud.
We attribute these sweeping defeats to the
t^fpS.tona frauds of Tammany Hall, which
very unjustly have brought odium on the Dem
ocratic name from Maine to Texas. It U true,
Tammany has stolen only a few millions, while
Radicalism has piled up public plunder by the
hundred millions; hot in the North and West,
Democracy tad no strength against the odium
of its anti-war policy, except as a party pledged
to reform and honest administration. When,
therefore, the strongest association of these
Reformers stood oonvicted before the world as
mere public robbers, the moral strength of the
whole Democratic organisation was totally pros
trated for a Ume, and it fell an easy victim to
the jeers and reproaches of its enemies.
Judge Warner Tor Governor.
Several of the Democratic papers are propos
ing Judge Hiram Warner, of the Supreme
Bench, for Governor of Georgia. If Judge
Warner would aooept the nomination, we have
no doubt it would be satisfactory to the people.
They would then be sure of an able and an
honest man in tho Executive chair. Judge
Warner would fear no responsibility in carry
ing out bis oonvictions of public duty, and is
one who could never be driven beyond the line
of true publio welfare. In the way of integrity
he is an ancient Roman, and Rings would stand
small chance while he held the baton.
The .Savannah Republican.
Xhft telegrami yesterday announced that onr
late copartner, Colonel Wm. A. Reid, had pur-
chased the Savannah Republican. We welcome
him back to newspaper life, and front that under
hie anaploea tho Republican will regain its
ancient fi'oancift status. Thirty yearn ago the
Republican, under tho management of Looks,
was a great property, and there is no reason
why it should not bo so egain. Bavaonah has
more than twice the population and business she
had at that Ume, and can handsomely sustain
her present newspaper press.
Axonixa or Axxbman's 8»s.— A Western
press dispatch says it is well known in Washing
ton that the miateke in the President's procla
mation, by which Marion county. South Caroli
na, was put under martial law, instead of Union,
occurred through the bad penmanship of Aker-
man. Tho list was sent from the Attorney-
General's office in Akenusn's handwriting. It
was satisfactorily deciphered except the word
"Union," which all the experts in bandwriting
finally dedlded was Msrion, and so the prods-
maUon including the latter county went forth.
Not a Docht or It.—Tho World is inclined
to think that Grant's martial law outrage in
South Carolina was inspired by a desire to keep
the monstrous financial rascalities of Soott A
Co. "in the family." We have not a doubt of
lb Whenever you hear from a loyl throat the
howl of Ku-klox, be euro that loyl hands have
been stealing more greedily than usual, and
that the owner foci* be is about to be exposed
and made to drop out of line. Set that down
as an axiom. _
Bbotuu Balaam on ms Tbavils.— A Salt
Lake dispatch of the fitb, says a well known
Mormon writes from Beaver, October 31, that,
"Brother Brigham arrived here this morning,
and after resting five hours, left for St George,
on the southern border of the Territory. He
was escorted by twelve mounted men of the
Nauvoo Legion. 'I am told,' says the writer,
‘that he has pud a final adieu to Salt Lake City.
Tbs movement of Brother Brigham is greatly
agitaUng the minds of the people hereabouts. ”
"Fiona MacFuxst."—The total value of
dry goods thrown on the New York market from
tat of January to date is officially returned a*
911(1,424,615. "Cottons" and "ailks" consti.
tute the big items in the bill, and these, the
baohelore say, must be plaoed to the account of
Flora MoFlimsey. But Flora may retort: Look
at tbo heavy items for brandy, ohampagne,
cigars, tobacco and other things, in which she
is supposed to have little or no direct personal
interest— S. T. Xrputt.
Tux Gaarmo.—Brown 4 Co. have tho num
ber of this prinoe of illustrated papers for Oc
tober Slat It is, as usual, as much ahead of
all Ua contemporaries, ea one thing can be of
another. Its transcendent superiority ought to
drive out of competition all nvala both on this
and the other tide the Atlantia Without it
don’t see bow the Northern illustrated papers
could well get along.
Dxsict Kjulwat ^ossrenox Brrwxzii. Nox-
rouc and New Yoax.—The Vineland Railway
baa been finished to the Delaware Bay. This
brings New York into direct communication
with the rich wheat and fruit land of Sonth Jer
sey and Delaware. It requires, it ia said, only
ten miles of road to be finished in Delaware to
give New York a direct connection with Norfolk
by way of the Delaware and Maryland Railway.
Tot Kc.xltx in Alibaha—A letter reeeived
in Washington from one of the Ku-klux Com-
ml Use in Alabama, dated Livingston, Ala., Oc
tober 31, aeya that op to this time about 180
witnesses have been examined in this county.
In Sumter and Choetaw, the worst in the State,

Tu marriage service in the Ritualist Church
lasts nearly an hour, and ia a very imposing
ceremony. Tho priest who officiates usually

or embroidery, and the altar ia deoorated with
Sowers, wreaths and banners.

We find the following in the Southern Chris
tian Advocate of yesterday :
Eiromr College.—At a meeting of tho Board
of Trustees at Oxford, in Jnly, that body find
ing that they oould not, at that time and during
the excitements and interruptions of the Com
mencement, do all the work they deemed essen
tial to giving the institution tha highest effi
deucy, appointed a meeting for 1st November,
instant. Macon was selected for the place of
meeting, because it is centrally located to the
widely scattered members of the Board.
A committee was appointed to report on sev
eral matters connected with the subject in hand.
The Board met on last Wednesday, and the
oommittee reported a complete oode of statutes,
putting all the interests of the institution under
well defined rule. Among tho provisions adopt
ed was one to establish a new Professorship,
and to add a Tice Freaident to tha officers of
tho faculty. Dr. O. L. Smith was elected to
tha new Professorship, and also as President,
sod Dr. L. M. Smith was re-elected to his for
mer chair, and also constituted Vice President
of the institution. All the otber Professors—
tbo present incumbents of the reepective chairs
—were re-elected.
Of tho new editor of the Advocate, Rev.
Milton Kennedy, the retiring editor, Dr. Myers,
eava:
We consider tha choioe a capital one. A son
of tho Rev. Wm. M. Kennedy of precious

positions. For some years he has been the

aome sixteen miles, can be readily removed.
He has not yet made an estimate, but guesses

G.-and Jury of Fulton comity found true bills
the day before against J. C. Alexander, Joseph
Fry, James Mullin and N. P. Hotchkiss, charged
witheheating and swindling in connection with
the State Road.
The Sun says a heavy and persistent effort
has been and ia being made by variona inter
ested parties to stave off, postpone, smother up
and forever prevent investigation into their
official conduct, and connection with schemes,
enterprises, rings and plunderings. They raise
raw head and bloody bones stories, suggest sus
picions and surmises, and try to excito fears.
They want nothing investigated by honest and
oompetent men. There are parties whom the
publio do no not suspect, who are exerting all
their powers, in every way they deem prudent,
to keep down investigation. Some men have
been remotely connected with the rings, on the
sly, and have made money or obtained advan
tages, the particulars of whieh they do not want
to see the light of day, and to whom publio at
tention has never yet been directed in connec
tion with such matters. They are opposed to
investigation. They favor every measure but
the one likely to bring out the whole truth—
anything that will not likely rip up the whole
matter, root and branch.

“Wo Bleeding; Martyr, bnt a Spavined
Rogue.'’
Tbe World has the best notioe decidedly that
we have aeon of the recent flight of the brigand,
Bollock. It is such good reading that we must
print some of it anyhow. Says the World:
I His resignation is simply a confession of
j-uilt, and the fullness of that confession maybe
1 tetter understood when it is known that while
his resignation bears date aa if in Georgia be is
himself at this time and has for some days been
in this city of New York. Not only has he re
signed bis office to forestall impeachment, bnt
actually fled the State as if oonsdooa that even
aa the private person to which he has reduced
himself, the ordinary process of the court might
still be applicable to his case. Could a pismire
malefactor be oompared to one of mighty mold,
this fellow is Catiline over again, not only
avoiding the Senate house, but taking to fl'cht
from the city. B
The envenomed temper in which he leaves
Georgia behind him is seen in the most villain
ous traduction with whieh he seeks to bring
snatchy, distress and oppression once more
upon that ill-used State. According to his story,
Georgia intends, by her own unaided strength,
no doubt, to overturn the whole United States;
snd to this he pathetically adds that if the office
he has just vacated should be filled by one of
his persecutors, the friends and supporters of
the General Government would have no one to
invoke the Federal aid in their behalf, and
would be “handed over without mercy to the
a'fc.rulu of their enemies.” The absurdity of
-reorgla annihilating the United States Govern-
via Dt „ n 8'*-handed is too great for serious con-
■Mltliui. and in what ia aaid of the friends of
mimstartioc "offering from having no
Governor to call for help ou their behalf, how
how comes it, if there is reported oppression,
I that Governor Bollock himself never besought
.h«t aid? Thu truth is that than ia no mob
violence, actual or meditated, as is here alleged.
Not one thought in a hundred is given in Geor
gia to ee cession, constitutional amendments, or
any other such obsolete topic of Federal polities.
The outrageous pecuniary loasea of the people,
the weight of their taxes, tbe eemi-disaolmion
of the bonds of society by the license given to
crime by this fugitive Governor, whose last
official act almost was to pardon a most brutal
murderer jost about to be hanged—these and
other local matters have the publio attention in
that State. Upon these issues snd none other
was Governor Bollock to have.been arraigned,
and for fear of any trial upon them abut, etaeit,
erupit, he has cast down his broken truncheon
and sknrried off, no bleeding martyr but simply
a spavined rogua—JY. Y. World.
The Anvil Explosion at Montgomery
Two Men Killed and 7 wo Terri
bly Wounded.
From the Montgomery Advertiser, 7th itut.J
At about seven o’clock last sight s crowd of
nagroes and white Radicals commenced to
gather at the Artesian Basin for the purpose of
a grand demonstration in favor of one faction
of tbe psrty, generally called the National Guard
crowd, preparatory to the pending election.
Some old anvils that have been frequently used,
and which had caused much fear in this com
munity, were brought upon the ground, and
prepared for use as cannon. One of these,
filled with power by the negro in charge, was
touched off and exploded, breaking into several
large pieces and with the most dreadful results.

ly, and wsa not conscious a moment after be was
struck. He was first taken to Irwins, Wallace
4 Co.'a drug store and subsequently to his
room. Mr. Jeptha Frost, a workman in tbe
Western Railroad shop, was struck in the shoul
der, side and arm and terribly mangled. He
died instantly on the sidewalk, where he was
standing when struck, at the Central Bank cor
ner. A piece of tbe iron broke the iron railing
around the steps leading into the Globe Saloon,
under the Liverpool, London and Globe build
ing (Central Bank ooroer) and struck Mr. Morris
Light as be was starting uo the steps. He was
wounded in several places, tbe severest being
in the forehead, which caused a fracture of the
skull and is exceedingly serious. His right arm
is also broken. He was carried to bis room,
where Dr. Hereford and Dr. Douglas dressed
his wounds and a delegation of the Lomax Fire
Company, of which he is a member, are paying
him every attention. Mr. Light was talking
with Mr. Henry Yelverton when ho was struck.
Mr. D. W. Ferdne wss standing on tho same
ooraer (Central Bank.) He was struck above
the knee, but bis whole leg was crushed to his
foot. His leg will be amputated this morning,
as that is the only chance to save bis lifa His
condition is very critical. He wss taken to his
home in the western part of the eity. Eddie
Walker, a little white boy, was wounded but we
learn not seriously.

At last the City Council finds that it has au
thority to stop these demonstrations, and an
ordinance was adopted last night forbidding
them in future.
At one time it seemed as if the meetiDg
would be held, although the poor sufferers had
not been moved a stone's throw. Something,
however, operated to put a check upon it, and
the gathering quickly dispersed.
A Prophecy Fulfilled.
A short time ago (says the Knoxville Press
and Herald,) a remarkable verification of one
of Horace Greeley's prophecies, twenty years
ago, was noticed by the press throughout the
oountry. Greeley may not be a prophet, nor
the son of a prophet, bnt still another predic
tion of the Tribane, more than eighteen months
ago, is being so accurately fulfilled in each
Southern State in succession, that it deserves
attention.
In Jane, 1870, one of tho editors of tbe Tri
bune—probably Greeley himself—sent from
Washington, tbe following, which was published
at that time in th» Tribune;
‘The manner in which partisan telegrams
from tbe Sunth have been manufactured and
published in the North, to farther the personal
designs of unscrupulous and ambitious men
wss well shown np on the developments brought
out in reference to the Washington Chronicle
during the progress of tbe recent Georgia inves
tigation. The same game is now goiDg on in
connection with tho internal affairs of otber
Bootbern States. It is believed that tha ensu
ing elections in tbe Sonth will result, in some
instances, not perhaps in tbe defeat of the Re
publican party, but in the defeat of certain in
dividuals wbo are and have been tiring that
party aa 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 the interest of the men alluded
lo are teeming with acoounta of ‘outrages.'
This is particularly the oase in North Carolina,
and no surprise need be felt at a daily dish of
horrors from that State, served up in the Chron
icle; ‘ for,' said one of the North Carolina sen-
atom, ‘we intend to use the military, and in
justification, we must get these statements dis
seminated through the North.’ ”

Fatal Panic In a Colored Chnrcll—Nine
Women and Two Children Trampled to
Death.
Louisville, November 0.—List night a ter
rible aocident occurred in the Colored Baptist
Church in this city, by which several lives were
lost. Tbe chnrch is a two-story frame building,
arranged for worship in either story, but the
upper room is handsomely fitted np, and was
occupied last night at the time of the accident,
by a large congregation. Tbe pnlpit is in the
rear part of the room, and there ia a small gal
lery in front of the choir. Two narrow stair
ways, each probably four feet wide, rise just
inside the main door of the building, and lead
up to the room. The floor is supported by a
row of pillars, extending from front to rear of
tbe lower story. It appears that these pillars
stand over the space between tbe lower joists,
and rent only on the thin plank of tbe floor. At
about 9$ o'clock, after tbe colored pastor had
concluded his sermon, and while the collection
was being taken up, the pillar supporting the
floor immediately in front of the pulpit gave
way, and the floor sank a little, with a crack
ling noise. Some one in the audienoe shouted
"the church is falling down,” and immediately
the panic-stricken congregation rushed for the
doom. The preacher and oDe or two others,
who retained their presence of mind, endeav
ored to check the tumult, and started a hymn,
but without avaiL In the wild stampede, wo
men and children were crushed in the jam, or
knocked down and trampled under foot. Tbe
panic lasted bnt a few minute*, yet in that time
eleven persons, nine women and two children,
were killed, and a large number were seriously
injured.

YOUNG A*D RISING GENERATON.
Tbe vegetative powers of life are strong, bnt in
a tern yeare bow often the pallid hue, the lack-
luster eye, and emieiaied form, and the impossibil
ity of application to mental effort, show their
baneful ieflaenca It soon becomes evident to the
observer that semr depressing influence is checking
tha development of the body. Consumption is
talked of, and perhaps the youth ia removed from
school and sect into the oountry. This la ono of
the wont movement*. Removed from ordinary di
versions of the over-changing scenes of the city,
the powers of the body, too much enfeebled to give
zeet to healthful and rural exercise, thoughts are
turned inwardly upon themselves.
If the patient be a female the approach of tbe
menses is looked for with anxiety as the first
symptom in which nature is to show her saving
power in diffuaing the circulation and visiting the
cheek with tbe bloom of health. Alas! increase of
appetite has grown by what it fed on. The energies
of tbs system are prostrated, and tha whole econo
my is deranged. The beautiful and wonderful
period in which body and mind undergo eo fascinat
ing a change from child to woman ia looked for in
vain. The parent's heart bleeds in anxiety, and
fancies the grave bnt writing for its victim.
