Chaso was sustained by a strict party vote. Pending
tho discussion, the managers declined answering what
use they intended making of disputed evidence, as it
would expose their plan of prosecution. The ques
tion at issue was whether what Gen. Thomas said and

that Thomas said ho intended using force to
break the door down, and that afterwards ho said he
was deterred from urine fores by his arrest.
The next question arose over the admissibility of
what Gen. Thoatas did and said previous to receivine
orders to take the War office. Mr. Chase ruled it out.
Mr. Drako appealed, and the appeal was sustained by
28 to 23. Tho mauaecrs stated previous to the rote
that they intended provine by this evidence that Gen
Thomas, in the line of his conspiracy, attempted to
corrupt the employes of the War office. Mr. Butler

“Look Here. You Dlack Scoundrels !
If you do not vote tho Radical ticket, on the 20th of
April, you shall bo hung, head downward, with a hole
under your head, that you may the quicker descend
into that hell, to which you properly belong,” were
the sentiments uttered at the recent Radical Pow
wow in this city, by that yellow coadjutor of Jeff.
Long, George Wallace, tho so-called colored preacher
from Millcdgeville.
In the palmiest days of slavery no worse language
was ever used to tho slave by tho most blood-thirsty
and vindictive of all overseers, the Yankee task
masters, of which the late Columbus victim was a
specimen, than is here used by the new owners of the
black race—tho offspring of the vices of tho two races,
tho handful of inulattocs who aro now attempting to
rule the great mass of the blacks with a rod of iron.
Iathooldon timo. the greatest fear of tho black
man was that lie might be sold as a slave to a free
colored man. Why was this ? Simply because the
free mulatto made the most exacting and cruel of
masters, and never tired of venting his spleen upon
the helpless black from whoso race he was a de
generate scion. These fellows havo always’considered
the blacks an inferior race, and only fit to obey their
behests blindly and unhesitatingly. As slaves, they
treated them os brutes; as ireedmen, they threaten to
scourge and mnrder all who dare to murmur or re
fuse to obey their behests. >
Canpot tho black man tee through the design of these
ight-colored individuals ? Their whole and sole aim
8 to get control ofthe black race, that they may sell
them to tho highest bidder in the coming election
contest. They hate the black raco, because they know
that clement to be largely in the ascendancy: and be
lieving it to be an inferior race, fear that they will be
brought down to its level. They curse it as an infe
rior raco, and look down upon it with disgust and ab
horrence.
In San Domingo, after the expulsion efthe whites,
this hybrid raco assumed the leadership of affairs ;
took possession of all the offices of profit and trust;
created an order of nobility among themselves, and
attempted to rule tho gniliblo and more ignorant
blacks with a rod of iron. This the blacks stood for
awhile, but. awakening from their lethargy, they re
sorted to arms to obtain their rights in the govern
ment—tho result of which was a war of races, termin
ating in the extermination or expulsion of tho mu-
lattocs. With the mulattoes of this country, as with
their renegade and carpct-bag whito allies? tho belief
is a religious creed, that while tho black man is emi
nently fitted to exercise the right of the ballot, yet he
is entirely disqualified from bolding offico of any kind
—that the black shall do tho labor, that the mulatto
may alone reap tho reward I
This is the programme of theso new owners of tho
black race of Georgia: and it would havo been fully
carried out, had they not, in tho arrogance of their
fancied power and security, thrown off the mask too
soen, and boldly proclaimed to tbeir black slaves that
tho roign of tho gibbet and the Hash should bo inau
gurated to keep tho rebellions in subjection!
What black man is there in Georgia, with ono par
tide of manly pride in his breast, that would quietly
submit to the threats of tho whip and gallows, from a
white man, shonid be presumo to think and aot for
himself, politically ? Not one, we know.
Will ho, then, submit to tho arrogant dictation of
theso bastard members of the negro raco? Wo think
better of tho intelligence of a black man than to snpposo
that ho will place himself, boand hand and foot in the
power of such merciless tyrants. c
But, should they bo unfortunately led away by the
sophistries of theso oily-tongued rascals, and blindly
obey their mandates, tho Egyptian bondago of tho
Israelites will be an cljsium compared to that which
will bo thoirs when they, the blacks of Georgia, be'
long, body and soul to Jeff. Long & Co.
KAY TON’S DYSPEPTIC! PILLS—Cures Liver
Complaint sed Dyspepsia.
Fire Monday Mg lit
Monday night about half-past 9 o’clock, tho alarm of
lire was given, and found to proceed from II. W.
Boifeuiltet’s warehouse, adjoining Iiis Mill, on tho
corner of Rlbcrt and McIntosh streets, near the work
shops ofthe Southwestern Railroad.
Tho firo spread from tho Warehouse in tho centre,
to tho Mill building on the loft nnd a small dwelling
house on tho right. Tho Wnrohouso and Mill woro
entirely consumed. Tho dwelling was partly consumed
and partly pulled to pieces by Hook and Ladder, and
it was owing to their exertions and tho water thrown
upon tho adjoining dwelling, that tho latter was
saved.
Tho storc-houso had in it a four goods, which were
saved. Tho Mill, or coraor building, had nothing in
tho front store, and only had Mr. Fred. Guttenbarg-
cr’s bed room furniture and a few othor articles, all of
which woro consumed. Tho small dwolling was oc
cupied by a colored family, which saved nearly all
their effects. • • a
Tho kitchen of tho small dwelling was saved but
partly demolished. Tho buildings were all tho pro
perty of H. W. Boifeiullet. and on which he had an
insurance of about $2600. Ho estimates his loss, out
side of this, at about $1290 or $1500.
Ocmulgce, No. 2 were tho first to arrive on tho
ground, and wero tho first to get water on tho fire.—
No. 3, though their engine turned bottom upward on
tho way, got tho first good stream on
The so-called Grand Rally or Mass Meeting ol
the -Republican Party of Bibb and the adjoining
counties, came off Monday at the Grove, .near
the Cemetery, where these gatherings arc usually
convened.
Notwithstanding the grand flourbh of trumpets,
the employment of runners through the country
and the drum and fife sent out in town, from day
light until the procession w.is lormed at 11 A. m.,
there was not over a thousand persons on the
ground—one-third at least of which was composed
of women and children.
As at the other meetlcg, the “Big Becgum,”
Jeff. Long, had calculated without bis host, for
with tho day, came none of the speakers sn-
nounced lor the occasion: McCay, Bird and Far
row; and though the Radiml-Negro-Candidate for
this Congressional District was on the stand, yet,
“like a sheep before his shearers, he opened not
his mouth,” and thereby showed his good sense.
Though the Monroe “Potts” looked like he wt>£
biling over with enthusiasm, yet ho simmered
dowu on the talk question and raised not a bub'
ble. The assembly was “spared” the infliction
thepre-encc or twaddle of “Senator” Speer, so
callca, and seemed to be thankful.
Finding their whito allies had loft them to do
all tho talking, Jell Long called upon ono Stow-
nrt, a yellow nogro f om Now Jersoy, to lead off.
IIo had thb advantage of his fellow-speakers in
ono thing, and that was in tho cboico of lan
guago and ideas—tho result of education. He
took for his text those portions of the Georgia
Radical Constitution that he thought would tickle
his hearers best, nnd commit them to its blind
endorsement—the equal rights and relief sections.
Uo did not stick to bis text, however, but strove
to show that it thoy did not voto the Radical
ticket thoy would bo again enslaved, and would
never obtain their rights, and kindred assertions
His was tho mildest speech of tho Grand Pow
wow.
. Jeff. Long then made an out-and-out Radical
harangue, and while endeavoring to appear op
posed to stirring up bad blood between the races,
mado the most inflammatory appeals to their
passiTns to arouse them to a non intercourse
with the Democrats—for fear, we suppose, thujt
they might hoar tho truth in regard to the only
present issuo beforo them—tho prosperity or
ruin of tho country. Jeff’, seemed to loar disaf
fection in his ranks, and plainly and forcibly
advised the administration of tho 39 lashes to
all colored men who should dare to refuse to
register, and 200 lashes for failing to go to tho
polls; whilo for that negro who sboutd presume
to exercise the right of choosing for himself, aod
voting a Democratic ticket, was reserved the fate
of tho gibbet, as represented upon thocaricaturo
borne in the procession—a darkey ^hanging and
bearing the following inscription in rude letters;
Every Man Don’t Vote A Radical Ticket tbs
the Way we Want DO Him. Hang Him by Neck.”
Not alone was this to be their fate, bnt their
corpses were to be denied Christian burial.
This was the sum and substance of LoDg’s
harrangne.
The next speaker introduced was the mulatto
barber, Aleck Gastou, whose tirade ol nonsensical
nothings would have been totally unintelligible to
one not posted in the idioms of darkey lingo.—
Through the whole talk, however, cropped out a
rehash ol Long’s ideas on recreant darkies, and
the punishment that would be meted out to them
by the Radical faithful. Gaston is the head nigger-
whipper or driver to Jeff. Long, who now assumes
to own every colored man in this section of Geor
gia, and to dictate to them the manner in which
they shonid vote.
Tho next harangue was by a yellow man from
Milledgevillo, called Joo Wallace. He was
rather moro fortunate in tho choice of his words,
though his language was of cour e of the modi
Radical sort. Contrary to other speakers, Joe
thought all the darkies had to do was to stand
still, hold their own, and tho whites would wheel
into liuo with them. Ho counted on tbo biggest
kind of a majority for tho Constitution and Bul
lock—provided they kept united and fully or
ganized. Ho was awfully severe upon tho De
mocracy, and how that party will survivo the
onslaught worcallycannotimagine. His speech,
on tho whole, contained moro baro-faced, un
founded assertions than those of all the balance
of tho speakers put together. Joe will bo oligi
bio for “Head Centro” when ho reaches-Tophet,
for even tho Father of Lies will bo com polled to
tako a back seat and hido his diminished head-

but did not astonish us. It was Robert Carter,
the colored Presbyterian preacher and wheel
wright. Bob has been playing sort of. “Jerry

Miglit have been Killed,
Tho particulars of the attempt to enter Messrs. P. I
Daly & Bro’s premises, between 12 anil o'clock So;. |
day night, were abont these:
Mr. M. Daly was awakened by the violent ritqiqf I
a bell in the room, which communicated with kits
vant’s room by a wire, which wire had been palledhr I
her upon hearing someone attempting to font & I
back doot of the store! 1 [
Junffiring up hastily, in his night-clothes, Mr. Hi; I
seized his double-barreled gun, and openingsaineI
window, overlooking the back-yard, he proceridt |
reconnoiter.
He perceived two dark moving objects below,ail
on hailing, was told in a gruff voice to open theta I
or they would force it. Perceiving them to be tal
men, and on one of them threatening to blovthtal
of his head off, Mr Daly, thinking to frightenthoiI
traders off, fired ode barrel without aiming 2'i I
cn. I
Mrs. D., hearing the discharge of the gun, zndfec-i
ing her husband was in collision with the nntrfl
thieves, commenced screaming and shooting robtal
This soon brought officer Berry, and afcvciDaiJ
who happened in tho neighborhood, and on «itai|
the yard, a Federal soldier was found lying, u«
supposed, mortally wounded.
An examination developed the fact thzt thtr
tunatc man had been very badly shot-in the netUl

His companion, who appeared to be duly sober,*
made his appearance, and being found without to

hereabouts, who believed him to be like them
selves—anxious alone for the peace and prosperity
ol the country. He came out flat-looted on the
Radical platform. Said he bad shouted hallclojih
at emancipation, but would shout redoubled hal.
lelujahs when tbo Constitution was ratifled. He
was down on traitors among his race, and thought
if they only stuck together they would twin the
fight.
The next splutterer was a slick-headed, igno-
ran*, ginger-cake-color negro from Monroe, called
Glowers, who talked hoarsely, which he 6aid was
owing to his huge labors iu the cause. He raked
over his old slavery record, and* told ot how he
had been chased by hounds 35 miles lor bavin,
spelling book! [Bet it was for robbing a hen
roost.] He was no nigger now. He wasacitison,
and was going to have gll Ike rights ot the white
man, and wonid take no less. He was a powerful
converter, in his own estimation, and asserted that
he had made several proselytes among the whites
of Monroe connty.' He was evidently, as he an
nounced himsvlf, a “Big Ike” at a league meeting
or a bush gathering.
The last speaker was an old darkey preacher
•called Trapp, who opened his potato trap to utter
the greatest string of nonsense that it was ever
our misfortune to hear fall from even the lips of
the "Brudder Bcnes” of an Ethiopian Troupe.—
His scraps from American History were highly
amusing to the intelligent, bat were swallowed as
gospel by the Ignorant and gullible of his race.
He was the poorest Trapp sprung on the occasion.
Jeff. Long then wound up theJperformance3 by
reiterating his threats of coercion and puuishmcnt
to refractory negroes who should dare differ in
opiniod or vote contrary to his decree; called for
a show of hands for the Constitution, Bullock,
Republicanism, all the candidates; announced
that their county ticket would soon be an
nounced ; would ran one anyhow, which he said
was bound to be elected by 1100 majority; ap
pointed some committees, and then announced

Thus said and sung Miss Lucy Quick on being told
by Iiis Honor to double-quick out of town. This is
tho young white female woman, who went slightually
into iho model artist line a few Sundays ago, and was
retired for a twen’y day term from the busy stage of

but to “stand not upon tho order of her going,” but
dig out at once. She started quickly.
