Bishop Payne, of the African
Methodist Episcopal church ot
Florida and Alabama, was in Pitts
burg last week and had something
to say about the progress of the
colored people in the South since
the war. He said that considera-
derly is the wnc-t counsellor to for the United Stales to hdve to
withdraw its demands after the
Mexicans have .lurried guns and
soldiers to the frontier, and the hu
miliation would react upon the
democratic party. But justice mu-t
be done at all hazards, party or no
oaity.—Macon Telegraph.

It would pay Bishop Payne,
from a spiritual point oi view, to
open his eyes to tbe truth, il they
are holden on account of partisan or
race prejudice, and to pay moie at
tention in the future to the religious

people under his charge, and to
teaching them how to become in

ever said bit'er things about Gen.
Gordon or Mr. riecse. Tnat is a
mode of warfare we ucVi-r u-e. lui
the Madisonian seem, to have a
patent on it, from the manner iu
winch that paper has been blin.ily
striking at not only candidates, hut
private citizens, t..at visited it
town. Neither can one worJ that
we have sa d or w^.ttcu about Gcii
Gordon since his nomination be
possibly turiureo into inconsistency
with a single editorial that we hud
penned during tne campaign
When the democratic party o
Georgia, in convention as-einbled,
fixed i<* seal upon John B. Gordon
he that day and hour became the
Banner-Watchman’s candidate, and
as such w c declared and accepted
him; slid it occasion arises we shall
work tor his election as hard as we
did for Major Bacon’s nominal on.
Had Mr. Reese sccuicd the nomi
nation of his party in this district,
he, too, would have l.ccn our can
didate. Editor Blackburn received
our paper every day during tne late
congressional campaign, and we
now publicly defy him to quote
tnerefrom one line or word that can
possibly be tortured ihto bitterness
a ainst either Scab Reese or his
triends, unless it be that miserable
“K. K. K.” correspondent, whose
cowardly silence endorsed as true
every woid that we penned about
him. It is easy enough, Mr. Black
burn, to yell "slander'’ and “abuse,”
as you did during the late congres
sional campaign, but we now de
mand that you make your charge
good by quoting on.e item from our
paper of a slanderous or abusive
character against either Reese or
his friends, or stand self-convicted
of having misrepresented a brother
journalist; and we also ask you to
point out a ty article that we
have written since Gen. Gordon’s
nomination inconsistent with our
editorials during the campaign. To
open the eyes of the Madisonian ed
itor, and to show him tile light in
which his own candidate holds
that | aper, we have only to refer to
a little sentence that fell fiom the
lips of M'. Seaborn Reese during
his speech at Concord, in Elbert
county. In apologizing for hisde-
fcat in Morgan county, among other
reasons be gave was that h** was
supported thtic by a most “unfortu
nate editor,” or words to that effect.
Did a journalist ever receive a se
verer stab? When a man that he
has been so ardently, but vainly,
supporiing.^saw fit to publicly at
tribute his defeat to a paper’s ad
vancing his cause, we think it
high time for that journal to retire
from the political arena and seek
some other field of usefulness than
trying to make congressmen. Wc
are ot the opinion that the Madison
Madisonian bears the sole distinc
tion among Georgia journals of being
repudiated from the stump by the
candidate that it was supporting.
We did not intend to refer to this
humiliating thrust at Editor Black-
bum, but for his unnecessary unin
tent cd attack on the Banner-
Watchman. To substantiate what
we say, we reler the repudiated ed
tor toGapt. Carlton, who was on
lhe rostrum with Mr. Reese, as als>

A Land Slide Earthquake.
Mr. J. M. Huiley and a friend
were out squirrel hunting a few
dnys ago in the hills, when they
witnessed something mine like an
earthquake than anything else.
They first heard a deep, rumbling
noise, saw the t round crack open,
smoke rise through the aptituri,
and then suddenly a large piece ot
giound covering twenty or thirty
yards slowly sand into a deep gul-
ley, cairying huge trees with it.
The ground was not unnsjally wet.
and the presence of gas was very
perceptible. Mr. Hurley describe-
it as one uf the most remarkab'eoc
currency* that he has ever seen.—

MilledgevilCe, Ga., Aug. 7.—
“Hanged uy the neck until you are
dead, dead, dead. May the Lorn
have mercy on vour soul.” These
were the last words ol Judge Law-
ton to Frank Humphries to-day.
Humphries was sitting near hi>
counsel when these solemn word-
were spoken. He looked gravt
and careworn when he fir-t enter
ed (he court room, but befote he
was there I01; he looke 1 as hasp
as ever. Abaut 4 o’clock the d irnn
ed man was'aske.i co rise and an
swer the question: “What have
vnu tn say why sentence of death
should not be pronounced upon
yon?” He replied in a firm voice:
“Nothing, except I am an innocent
man.” ilumphries looked a* calm
as could he, and no one who did
not know him would have thought
him to be the perpetrator of one 01
the most horrible crimes on record
in Georgia. He will be hanged on
Sept. 34. It is probable that
Humphries will be carriad to M i-
con forconfinement.until the dayo'
execution. Tbe hanging will be
private.
