AFTERTHE battue.
Now that the smoke of our little
municipal skirmish has cleared
away, we can
take a retrospective
glance over the field and perhaps
profit by what is revealed. For the
first time on record the young de
mocracy ofAthens-theboys who
have heretofore achieved such
oraml political victories—were di
vided yea, split into three factions,
each upholding its favorite candi-
date There was nothing bitter or
unpleasant about the contest, but it
was rather a little tilt among friends.
The candidates were all true demo
crats. and hence the only issue at
stake was personal preference.
When it was decided to reject a
nomination and leave an open field.
th e candidates and their friends sol-
cmnly promised not to buy votes
witheither money or liquor, and
also to conduct the campaign upon
the highest grounds. \\ e will do
all parties the fairness to say that
they started out nice enough, and
the political arena looked as placid

Among the passengers on the
steamship State of Nebraska was a
pretty woman, Mary Blake, who
showed much tenderness to a sick
woman and baby who accompa
nied her. The sick woman told the
following tale:
"My name is Katie Blake, and I
am from Scrably, in the county Ca
van, Ireland. I don’t think that any
jirl ever started out in life with

Charlotte, Dec. 5.—Sydney A.

Three little negro children were

cution was conducted by Mr. Speer,
and the others will doubtless go the
sime way.
of the candidates proposed that they
rescind the contract about election
eering, which was accepted. This
was the first step down grade. The
“brother in black” then came man
fully to the front, and he was the
central figure. As the final day
drew mar the air was filled with ru
mors about broken promises. Onc
side was accused of buying up a
certain degrading influence. Soor.
secret jugs of whisky were smug
gled into negro caucuses, and the
ebony street loafers seen puf
fing cigars on the corner. The fact
can’t be denied or disguised that all
-ides recognized the truth that as
Cufl'cc went so goes the election.
The day before the contest all tickets
were equally confident. Each
thought they had the negro vote
about solid. Hut shortly after dark
Monday night a bomb was thrown
into the ranks of two of the aspi
rants hv a well-authenticated report
that *500 in cash had been distrib
uted among the negroes. Investi
gating committees were appointed,
when, alas! the report was found to
be but too true. A faint effort was
made to counteract this influence,
but it was too late. In fact the first
bidders had the drop on the boys,
and they could do nothing but suc
cumb. In justice to the candidates
we will say that they were innocent
of this purchase, but their zealous
friends did the work. The negroes
went as a unit, and as the white
vote was split into three factions,
victory perched upon ihe banners of
Africa. They held the balance of
power, as will always be the case
when the democrats refuse to make
a nomination. The u hite vote was
very nearly equally divided between
the three candidates for Mayor,
showing that they were all accept
able and good men. Even those
who differed with the Hanner-
Watchman and thought a nomina
tion unnecessary now acknowledge
the wisdom of our course. They
see the injustice of lasing a candi
date’s friends the amount of hisotli-
cial salary t(* achieve success, not
considering the degrading elfccts
of this bartering of suffrage.
We will next year have a new
Mayor and four new aldermen.
They are all gooiLand true men, and
will doubtless administer the affairs
of the city with wisdom, justice and
moderation. For a young
man Mr. Dorsey lias a grave
responsibility upon bis Jshoulders,
but Vie believe that he will acquit
himself with credit. The people
expect of him a fearless administra
tion, and that lie will enforce the
same peace and order as did his
predecessor. The respect and en
dorsement of the respectable and
law-abiding citizens of a community
should he paramount to all other
aims. With the exception of ad-
" ministering justice and having a
general supervision over the city,
the power of the Mayor is circum
scribed. To the wardens is allotted
the real management of the city.
It Mr. Dorsey will only carry’ out
the pledges made in his published
card, that young officer can count
with certainty on the hearty support
of his people, it matters not for
whom they voted.
It affords us pleasure to say that
the re-election of Capt. D. C. Oli
ver, as chief of police, is assured, if
hat vigilant officer again presents
his name to council.
We hope, that now this question
is settled, that all of our people will,'
rally around our new Mayor and
give him their support in making
his administration a success. There
•re no animosities to bury or wrongs
to forgive, for none were engender
ed. We did not hear of a harsh
word spoken the entire campaign.
The election was a little tilt between
friends, and is so recognized. So
let us now all accept the result
with the best of feeling, determining
to hereafter centre upon a ticket,
and thus plump out the black mid
dle man, that renders political con
tests but a matter of barter nnd
sale.

Mr. Melton asked the court to in

acquittal, which they did without
leaving their seats. Another fail
ure of the government to convict
innocent democrats. Speer and
Melton are disappointed. To-mor
row the Marion case begins.
the pet of my parents, and even be
fore I was of age I had received
several splendid offers of marriage
from wealthy farmers in the neigh
borhood. I was so frequently told
of my beauty that I looked with dis
dain upon the offers of these wor
thy men, foolishly thinking they
were not good enough for n:e.
“While out riding one day my
horse ran away, and I was saved
from death by a man named John
Wilson, the steward for the* rich
Dr. Bobington, Justice of the Peace
for the county. I thought it was
very romantic. He appeared to j
fall deeply in love with me and we
met frequently. It was not long
before I fell deeply in love with
him, and when about six months af
ter our first meeting he proposed
marriage to me, and I eagerly ac
cepted. He made me promise,
however, that I would not speak of
our engagement, as it would injure
his prospects with a* maiden aunt
from whom he was expecting mon
ey at her death.
“I consented to this proposition,
but when he proposed a secret mar
riage I refused. He would not
abandon the idea, however, and at
last I yielded to his oily tongue. I
consented on condition our mar
riage should be made know at the
end of the year, whether his aunt
died or not. He was satisfied, ap
parently, and one stormy night we
were married. That was about 1
year ago. and until two months since
I was the happiest woman in the
world. Then my little boy was
born. My husband now changed
toward me, and oqe night he told
me that he had deceived me by a
mock marriage, and that I had let
ter come to America.
“Heart-broken, ^returned to my
father, as he supposed, from a visit
to a friend, but when I told him my
story he drove me trom the house
and said he wished never to see
my face again. My sister Mary
pityingly would not desert me. She
left the house with me and we sail
ed a few day later on the State ,of
Nebraska.”
On finishing her sorrowfnl story
the poor woman fell back exhaust
ed. Superintendent Jackson
ed her removal to Ward’s
with her child, where she now lies
in a critical condition. The woman,
although wan and pale, shows traces
of extreme beauty.

In speaking of the result of the
tjial by the United States authori
ties in Columbia yesterday, the
News and Courier is led to remark
that, with officers of the calibre of
District Attorneys Speer and Mel
ton, the end justifies the means 1
The end they had in view in Co
lumbia, was to procure the convic
tion of the democrats who were ac
cused of offences under the election
laws. The means taken was to ex
clude from \he jury every man who
was known to be in political sympa
thy with the accused. It was a
trick worthy of the two District
Attorneys, and unworthy of the
great government they speak for
and represent. No thought of this
would have troublod them, howev
er, if they had succeeded in their
efforts to obtain a conviction at any
price. But they have been foiled
and beaten. In the very first case
there is a mistrial.
Any one who read the testimony
in the Mitchell case could see for
himself that no offense had been
committed, and that Mitchell, as a
police officer, confined himself to
preserving order at the registration
place. Yet Messrs. Speer and Mel
ton demanded a conviction. Though
their witnesses contradicted each
other on oath, they invited the jury
to believe every word that went
against the accused and to disbe
lieve everything else. They de
pended on the jury. And the jury
failed them; they packed tlie jury;
they are hoist with their own pe
tard; there were on the jury three
men who had convictions and con
sciences of their own. All honor
to them! whoever they are. There
is some hope of fairness and justice,
even under the operation of the
standing aside jugglery, when such
a jury as that which tried Mitchell
refuses to convict an innocent man.
What a humiliation for Mr.Speer!
What a humiltation for Mr. Melton!
These two worthies knew that At-
torny-General Brewster would ex
cuse anything they did, however
outrageous, if they only obtained
thereby the. conviction of the ac
cused Democrats. But they have
failed as ignominiously as when ju
ries were not organized to convict,

Death of Banion Montgomery.
Xanm Tf Uynt^h.
The old negro, formerly owned by
the State, purchased betore the war,
because of his saving the railroad
bridge over the Chattahoochee of
the Western and Atlantic railroad,
from fire, and made by the recent
Legislature, a pensioner of the State
for life, died suddenly of apoplexy
this morning. He had latelv had a
stroke of paralysis; hut still kept his
place at the Capitol until this morn
ing. This morning he was about
the Capitol as usual, hut complained
of feeling unwelL, and started home,
He fell dead upon the street before
reaching his house. The old man
was seventy-five years of age. and
only yesterday was looking forward
with the well-known enthusiasm of
his race to the coming Christmas,
and said he was saving up most of
his pension money of November
and December for Christmas, and,
I believe, had asked the Governor
for permission to keep it in the
Treasury until that time.
Upon notice of his death, Gover
nor McDaniel gave orders that Ran
som he decently buried at the ex
pense of the State. While the oc
casion will not rise to the dignity of
a State funeral, it is a becoming
tribute to the faithful old darkey
which Georgia can well afford.
InM: The |»etiti<in of the undersigned
aiol subst-ribvrs respectfully, ■howeth, that on
the 29th day oi October, 18>.», they formed and
organized tnemselre* into a society, to be knowu

Chicago, Dec. 4.—The Coroner’s

sulted from asthma and lack of nour

Campbell, of Scotland, being a niece
of the Duke of Argyle. and fled to
America, twenty-five y cars :, g°.

whom she wedded against the wish
es of her people. After his death
at the hands of an assassin, in the
Western mountains, she removed to
Chicago and accumulated consid
erable property from teaching music.
Latterly she became a recluse and
was addicted to her cups. She
died really from lack of attention,

apparently, within reach, to extend
loving hand. Her distinguished
kin in Scotland cabled directions
concerning the obsequies.
