Otnusn: We are in receipt of yonr very

in aid of Southern orphans, and for which yon

gentle charities and human sympathies of a
Christian people, irrespective of party or sect
Yours is the lint instance, since we left our
homes upon this mission of love and charity,
that an attempt has been made to insult us or
our labors.
Now let us hear no mora of "lack of Southern
sympathy," It may not be amiss to state, in
this connection, that among the sufferers by the
late Are was this very Republican Company, and
that, to the best of our knowledge, it was so
prostrated as not to have been able ainoe to re
establish iuelf. It may be very unchristian
of oourso it is exceedingly disloyal—to cherish
such feelings, but really we never felt more r£
signed in all our life, to any misfortune, than
we do to this. In fact, we aro rather cheerful,
than otherwise.
Florida New*.
The Floridian, of last Tuesday, announces
the sudden death, on the Saturday previous, of
Hon. D. F. Hogue, a well known and eminent
lawyer of Tallahassee. Tho same paper quotes
from the Jacksonville Union (Radios)) the re
sult of the Ko-klnx committee's visit to Florida,
as follows:
The testimony given before the committee,
as to the commission of numerous political out
rages and the lawless condition of certain
counties in this State, was direct and explicit,
and will, we believe, not only receive the im
mediate consideration of the President, but
will secure such protection as rosy be needed
for all classes of citizens.
No doubt, Florida is a grand centre of
"political outrages" of the most atrocious
eharaoter, but they are perpetrated by the
black and white rasoals, to whom Governor
Heed acts as Grand Gyolops.
There was a light frost in Tallahassee on
Thursday, the lGth instant. Seven deaths
from yellow fever have occurred at Ceedar
Keys since the 13th instent. Von Sullen, a
native of Belgium, has purchased 312,000 acres
of the "Forbes purchase” in Wakulla and
Liberty oountlcs, for the purpose of colonising
emigrants from Alsace and Lorraine. Thirty
have already settled there. The Palatka Herald
represents that there will be nbouFhalf n crop of
oranges in Bast Florida this year, tho trees hav
ing been partially denudod of fruit in the late
severe gale. Ths oranges are large and Ancly
Savored.
New Books.—Messrs. Lee it Shepard, Bos.

J. W. Barke A Oo., of this city, who have
them all for sale, the following books; "Burn's
Poetical Works,” a moat snporb volume in
green and gold, with gilt edges, printed on
eroam.tinled paper, and with thirty-two illus
trations. A moro elegant Christmas present
6ould not be found, lteynard. The Fox, a
Burlesque Poem, from the low German of the

them, without alteration or interpolation, and
In the pstformance of which Mr. D. himself

Hearth," etc. "Kalhlo Stories,” in three vol.
umes, ISmo., illustrated, a very pretty series,
by Miss A. M. Douglass. These volumes are
severally entitled "Katbie's Soldiers.” "In
the Banks," and "Kathio's Harvest Days,” all
sprightly tales, enforcing by extmplo and illus

Hucce:<iful. But who will dare dispute his
claims in tho face of the following, which we
find in the Washington Patriot, of Monday :
Governor Bullock, defending himself from
the ontcry i gainst him, denies that he has
profited to any material extent by the pecula
tions in which he took a hand. “I had to wink
at the stealing around me," he said, and pre
tend to take my share. If I hadn't done so,
the knavish carpet-baggers and scalawags, with
whom I was forced to associate, icould hate
stolen me bodily f"

Over six hundred Republicans voted for Scrib

is an illustration of Radical love for the negro.
In the South the Radicals court the negro, and
often vote for and elect him to office, bat in the
North, where there are bnt few negroes, the
white Badleais have no use for them except as

Western Union Telegraph Company*
We are officially informed that the Western
Union Telegraph Company have made a very
great reduction in the rates from Macon to all
points reached by their lines. In some tn-
stances as much aa fifty per cent, and in all
oases from twenty-five to thirty per oent. With
extraordinary facilities, a well established sys
tem and low rates, this company must certainly
reoeivo its full ah are of patronage.

“Governor Conley.”
Fror t tbe Telegraph and Messenger, November 1 ]
J a his official proclamation Mr. Conley signs
mself " Ooternor of Georgia.” There is
® Miring in the facts or in the Constitution to
Justify his assumption of that title. The Con
stitution, in the article wa have quoted else
where, is very careful not to designate him as
Ooternor. It only declares that upon the given
contingency, he shall "exercise executive pow
ers”—thet is to say, he shall be acting Gov
ernor. And thie hat a meaning to U. The
Constitution does not fill the Executive vacancy
with the President of the Senate; bnt leaves it
still s vacancy to be filled by special election,
if the General Assembly shall order it. Bead
the danse, and yon will see that this view of the
matter is very clear.
Conley's claim to be "Governor” it, therefore,
mere usurpation. At the most he can only act
as Governor, until the Governor's snooessor is
elected, etc., either by special or regular elec
tion. according to the authority conferred on

trouble ahead.
Thu above editorial was written before tbe
meeting of the Legislature, and when, as yet,
this attempted usurpation by Conley bad been
foreshadowed only by a little Executive order,
in wbioh Conley signed himself Governor of
Georgia. Nothing, therefore, which has mnoe
occurred, and nothing likely to occur in the
way of backing this atrocious usurpation with
Federal bayonets, is likely to surprise the Tzi.z-
qbafh ahd Messxkgul We reoommended tbe
Legislature to pass this election bill in full
view of all the probable or possible conse-
quenoer; and now with tbe most sineere snd
heartfelt desire for the tranquility of the State
snd her repose from Federal intervention snd
Federal tyranny, ws still insist that it is the
solemn doty of tho Georgia Legislature to ex.
haunt every possible remedy against this auda-
eious usurpation. The Legislature could not
blamelessly praetermit tbe exercise of their
plain constitutional powers for the protection
of tbe people under any threat of Federal bayo
nets, nor can it when bayonets come, if they
do oome, fail to exercise all tbe legal powers
in their hands, to disarm this usurper for mis-
ohlof. If Conley thwarts the provisions of the
election bill, passed over his veto, or refases
to perform any of ths duties tho bill devolves
npon him, he booomes * fit and proper subject
for impeachment. If, after this, he still
maintains bis seat by Federal intervention, no
appropriation bills should be passed, snd overy
resort of legislation should bo hid to prevent
any increase of the public indebtedness daring
this usurpation. In a word, tbe Legislature
should maintain its position with unalterable
firmness, combined with prudence and self-
p ose assign.
As to tbe probability that the threats of Con
ley's Atlanta organ will be verified by an actual
military possession of the Executive Chair of
Georgia, there will be a difference! of opinion.
We have little doubt that before Conley sent in
his veto he did get some assurance from Aker-
man that tho Administration would back this
usurpation with a military forco. Something
might he. gained to Grant, either by throwing
out the Presidential vote of Georgia altogether,
or by putting it into the hands of a friendly and
reckless manipulator in Grant's interest. But
it is a fact which can no looser be doubted or
disguised that tho President's tyrannical and
ltwlosa policy ia the Sonth is alarming the peo
ple of all sections and giving new point and
force to effortr. against his renomination. Wo
doubt whether, after a fall consideration of the
matter, Grant will be ready to take the respon
sibility of booking this bald nsnrpation of the
Bullock dynasty in Georgia with his bayonets.
Without a particle of law or reason to sustain
it—tho dynasty itself stinks ia the nostrils of
the people. The vilest Radical press is afraid
to apologise for it, after Bullock’s cowardly flight
from investigation. Wo have oar doubts whether
Conley and Akermin will bo able to bring up
Grant and his army to the point of backing tho
succession against the plainest provisions of tbe
Georgia Constitution; but wo shall boo. At all
events, tbe chanoe will be offered them.

*Soxas9DT Has Bkxn Sxsauso.”—'The Tri-
buno, of Tuesday, sayi:
Tribune dispatches from Sonth Carolina con
firm the view which are have heretofore ex
pressed concerning the financial oondition of
that State. The Governor charges tho Treas
urer with a fraudulent Irene of bonds, or, rath
er, of re-aelUng bonds wbioh bad already been
converted into new bonds. Tho Treasurer rad
Stats Financial Agent deny this, and charge
that all previous financial statements have been
“doctored”—to use a common phrase—in order
to deceive the public. The upshot of the whole
matter is that the State Treasury ia empty.
South Carolina credit ia below par, and it ia evi
dent that somebody has been stealing.
And yet the Trituco wonders that there are

that it will finally be adopted by the Mormon

has already the required population. When a
State government is formed polygamy oan be
abolished in the legal constitution by statute
after a day, to be named, provided that the
preaent wives and children of the Mormons are
recognized as legal, so that bastardy and
adultery shall not be assumed to exist, rad the .
line of inheritance in real and personal proper
ty be stricken down. This polioy, It Is de- |
