The Cipher Dispatches.
Just after the presidential election in
1876, when it was doubtful which way 1
*' |
the votes of South Carolina, Florida ]
and Louisiana had been cast, prominent i
men of each politcal party were sent
from the North to each of those states
to see a fair count by the returning
boards. These men sent back numer
ous telegraphic dispatches to their res
pective friends in the North detailing
the progress of the business on which
they were sent. These dispatches were
mostly in cipher, and difficult to trans
late except to those who understood
them. These dispatches, by some j
means got out of the hands of the tele
graph company into the hands of the
republicans at Washington. The re
publican dispatches were destroyed, and
the democratic ones fell into the hands
of the New York Tribune, a republi
can paper. The Tribune procured a
translation of them, and, wish a great
flourish of trumpets, shook them in the
face of the country as proofs of demo
cratic corruption, claiming that they
showed that the democrats had, with
the approval of Mr. Tilden, attempted
to buy the Florida returning-board.
Many democrats were badly frightened
by the publications of the Tribune, and
feared that some of the corruption that
they had been fur years charging and
proving on the republican party was
about to be brought home to their own
doors. Some of the dispatches did
look a goodj deal that’ way. Manton
Marble, who went from New York to
Florida in the interest of the democrats,
telegraphed *o Felton, a nephew of Gov.
Tildon, that the Florida board could be
bought for §200,000, and, a few days
afterwards, that they had fallen to §oo,-
OttO. Those dispatches were, of-course,
construed into an effort to buy the
hoard, and, as Felton was very near to
Mr. Tildon, it was supposed that he
was a party in the wicked effort.
A detail from the Folter committee
lias just about finished an investigation
of the matter in the city of New York.
The proof shows conclusively that there
was no effort on the part of the demo
crats to corrupt the board. Marble
testified that the board, through inter
mediate persons, offered to sell the elec
toral vote to the democrats, but they
refused to buy. lie declined their
offers, and telegraphed them to New
York merely to let the friends of Mr.
Tilden know that the board was for sale,
so that they might take steps, if possi
ble, to prevent a sale to the republicans.
Neither Mr. Tilden nor the democratic
executive committee knew anything of
the offer. I’eltou is the only democrat
who ever entertained an idea of buying
the board, and, when Mr. Tilden learn
ed that he had such a thing in view, be
promptly recalled him from a journey
he had undertaken to the south, and se
verely reprimanded him for bis conduct.
Mr. Tilden swore that he knew nothing
of any offers of the board to sell, and
that lie would have scorned an office
procured by such means.
The vindication of Mr. Tilden has
been so complete and triumphant that,
in the opinion of many, he will bo the
democratic nominee for the presidency
in 1880. Many may not like him, and
we bad begun to regard him as pretty ef
fectually shelved, but lie is still very
popular in the state of New York whose
largo electoral vote is an important
factor in a presidential contest. The
fact that he was robbed by fraud of an
office to which lie had been fairly elected,
will give him a strong hold on the affec
tions of the people. We may be called
upon to rally to the support of Mr.
Tilden again: if so, we, for one, can
obey the call right cheerfully.
Some days ago a few fast young men
in Macon attempted to bulldoze a stu
dent of Mercer University. The stu
dent escorted a young lady to the the
ater. \\ Idle there the fast young men
took his hat away from him. He, at
first, thought it was a joke, but they
kept his hat and he had to go home
bare-headed. The fast young men fol
lowed him to the home of the lady, and
after he came out attacked him on the
street—drew pistols—demanded bis
money watch, etc., —dogged him home.
M hen arrested, they tried to make out
that it was a 1 fun, but that dodge was
no go, and they are now under bond on
a variety’of charges, such as assault,
carrying concealed weapons, creating a
disturbance etc. Their foolish frolic is
likely to cost taem dearly by the time
the costs are all paid.
A Modern Miracle.
V\ iLMiNOTdx, Del., February 6.
Miss Minnie Lombard, nineteen years
of age, was left in a sightless condition
two years ago by an attack of typhoid
fever. She is a member of St. Paul’s
M. K. Church, which Church has made
her ease a subject of special prayer.
< >ti I ucsday night she retired, and
awoke with h’r sijit completely re
stored, which she attributes to a Divine
dispensation.
\ IMcasunt Banquet.
We were one of a large crowd of
ladies and gentlemen whose good fort
une it was to partake of a magnifficent
feast, at the pleasant and hospitable
home of Judge and Mrs. J. M. Sim
mons, c-u last Tuesday evening. The
Judge and his wife are noted for their
sociability and hospitality, and it is a
great pleasure to go where one is so
sure of a kind welcome and an elegant
and sumptuous feast. On this occa
sion the head of the board was graced,
on each side, by the pa-tors of our
two churches and their wives, while far
along the flower-decked and heavily la
den table were ranged rows of invited
guest, to whom the hostess and her as
sistants with lavish hand dispensed all
the delicacies that this and other cli
mates afford. After supper the eve
ning was whiled pleasantly away in the
drawing room in social conversation and
amusements. Such social reunions are,
in our opinion, potent agencies in soft-
I ening aud refining our rugged natures
and in promoting friendship and good
; feeling in communities.
liostick Caged.
The crime with which he is charg
ed is the murder of Henry Brunson
about the first of November, 1878 in
a bar-room at Barnwell, South Caro
lina. He talked freely upon the sub
ject, and gives this account of the
killing:
‘‘lt was committed during the fair
lasi fall, at Barnwell Court House,
in South Carolina. I was living in
that town at the time. The fair was
about over, and most of the country
people had returned to their home.
Some friends of mine and I wore sit
ting at a card-table in a bar-room,
when one of the countrymen, who
remained in town later than his fel
lows, entered the room and stood
looking at our game. How do you
like our company?’ 1 asked him
Don’t like it a bit, lie replied, how
do you like mine? We don’t like it
at all, I said: He then ran upon me
and struck me with his fist in the
breast I returned the blow, vvhere
i upon he reached to his hip pocket for
his revolver. I had one in the pock
! et of my coat, and reaching for it, shot
him through the head. I did not know
the man, and not until afterwards did
I know that his name was Brunson.
We were both drunk, and I know that
1 acted in drunken haste. I went im
mediately to my house, told my wife
what I bad done and left the town. I
have wondered around since in South
ern Georgia, and, not knowing that a
reward was out for me, I began to feel
comparatively safe. I stopped in At
lanta on my way to Kentucky- to await
seme money from my friends. Here 1
was caught and now acknowledge my
guilt. I have nr doubt that I can suc
ceed in establishing a ease that will
save me from the gallows. I am confi
dent that if I had stayed in Barnwell
county I would be a free man now,’’
The State Fair.
Some discussion lias been going on,
of late, as to where the next state
fair should be held. Atlanta was en
titled to it under an old agreement
by which it was to be held alternate
ly at Macon and Atlanta, but, having
instituted a fair ot her own, she does
not want it. Augusta has been spo
ken of, but she does not seem to be
eager for it, with the conditions at
tached. These conditions are that
the city where it is held shall contri
bute $3.‘100 to the Association, fur
nish buildings and grounds free of
charge, and police the grounds for
one week. As Augusta doe3 not
seem to wish it, we presume it will
be held at Macon.
<'oakling vs Hayes.
The bitter warfare that has so long
been waged between President Hayes
and Senator <’oakling culminated, a
few days ago, in the defeat of Conkling.
Hayes’ appointees to the U. S. Custom
House, at New York, who arc to suc
ceed the friends of Coukling, who were
turned out. were confirmed by the Sen
ate despite the efforts of Conkling The
New York Senator is said to be enrag-
| ed, and it is predicted that he will con-
I tinue the warfare on the fraudulent
| President more relentlessly than ever.

' Dalton North Georgia Citizen:
On Wednesday evening of last week
our town was startled by the report
that the body of a dead man was
found about two miles north of Dal
ton, near the East Tennessee, Virgin
ia and Georgia Railroad. A jury of
inquest was at once summoned by
Coroner Sutherland, who proceeded
to the spot designated and found the
body of (he dead man as reported.
It proved to be that of J. C. Bates,
s hi of Elias Bates, of this county , and
(lie verdict of the jury was that the
deceased come to his death by acci
dent—in what way is not known. It
was slated in evidence before the
jury that the decased had been ciazy
for two or more weeks past, and had
been wandering aimlessly through
the country for a day or so previous
to his death, and was seen on the
morning of the day he was found
dead by a Mr. Long, who noticed
that he was bloody about the face,
and upon interrogating him as to
the cause of the blood, the deceased
told him lie had fallen upon a stump.
There were two wounds, a slight one
over the lef; eye, and one over the
right ear—and the skull was found
to be fractured by whatever produced
them.”
Gainesville Eagle: “A few days
since we heard of an affair which occur
red not many miles from this city, and
which has created a decided sei sation in
the ihe neighborhood where it happen
ed, by which a gentleman of some note
in his district and well-to do farmer has
been'suddenly called upon to mourn
the loss of his young and beautiful wife,
who has gone off with a handsomer man.
We forbear to give names, as we did
not get the facts direct from the gen
tleman most interested, but will state
that all the parties are known to many
of our ppople. It seems that the gen
tleman referred to was married about
four years ago to a young and pretty
girl in a Mi idle Georgia town, and
their married life had been apparently
of the most pleasant nature, till within
the past few months, when a gay Loth
ario of handsome appearance and at
tractive address appeal’d ou the scene,
and matters began to go all wrong.
This young man, who lived in the
neighborhood, was a frequent visitor at
the house, and pretended to be a good
friend of the husband, so that nothing
was thought of his coming, hut the se
quel proves that he was a wolf in sheeps’
clothing, and the whole object of .his
visits were to soc the young wife and
seduce her affection s from her husband.
This state of things continued for some
time, the husband en'irely unconscious
of the wrong that was being done him,
when affairs culminated about ten days
ago in the sudden ami mysterious dis
appearance of the young man and the
wife. The husband thinks he is aware
of the whereabouts of the guilty couple,
but will take no steps to apprehend
them, leaving it to time and remorse to
punish his wayward wife.
The Calhoun Times mentions the sad
death of \\ illie Fain, the seconds on of
Colone J. C. Fain, of that town. It
seems that the little fellow was out
where some colored men were clearing,
and a small pine tree they cut fell upon
him while lie was looking in a hollow
log for a rabbit. He was about eleven
years old.
Ex-Judge W. B. Fleming was, on
Monday last, elected to Congress in the
first district to fill the unexpired term
of Hon. Julian Hartridge, deceased.

Governor Hampton. —The News
and Courier ofSaturday stys there is no
foundation for the report that Governor
Hampton has suffered a relapse, or is
in any danger. The wound he received
at Gettysburg gives him intense pain,
iiis nervous system is sadly shattered,
and he makes little progress in regain
ing the bodily strength he sorely needs.
This we believe to be his exact condi
tion.
The proposed trip to Florida, it is
reported, is abandoned, but Governor
Hampton adheres to the determination
to visit Charleston on Washington’s
Day. Charleston will receive him with
open heart and open arms, eager to give
confirmation of the exalted estimation
in which he iS held in his native city.
Yet Charleston has a. right to say that
Governor Hampton owes it to the State
to weigh well the cost before he sub
jects himself to the fatigue, and excite
ment inseparable from a journey to
Charleston. It is more, we fear, than
he can safely bear, unless he can im
prove rapidly during the coming fort
night. Governor Hampton belongs to
the State, and the State cannot afford,
that, for any reason, his early and com
plete recovery shall be retarded or pla
ced in jeopardy.
Money Loose —A New York letter
to the News and Courier says, Agents
of banks and bankers are going round
and offering money, both on call and
paper, on the most tempting terms.
This is a somewhat, new business for the
parties in question to run about with
their money fora customer,but it shuws,
first, the great abundance of money,
and second, that business does not be
gin to be lively enough to absorb it—
certainly not active enough to seek the
capital, rather than the capital seeking
it. Money in apparently unlimited
amounts is offered at 1 per cent, per
annum for 90 days, on pledge of gov
ernments and securities equally good,
wbi e the Stock Exchange gets all it
wants at 2 per cent. Three months en
dorsed paper is down as low as 3i per
cent., while single six months has been
placed at 4fas.'
Augusta Chronicle and Constitution
alist : “Just before last Christinas a
young man named Stephens, a clerk at
VYadley, on the (. entral Railroad, was
murdered at night and found the next
morning with his throat cut From a
merchant at Barlow we learn that a
young man named Wm. Hurst, living
in Scriven county, while under the in
fluence ot whiskey, said to an aunt of
his ; “A fellow knocked Stephens down
and I cut his throat. ’’ A gentleman in an
adjoining room heard the remark and
communicated the fact to parties at

rested and on Monday was cairied to

commenced. It was to have been con
cluded yesterday. Hurst’s aunt and

THE SUN FOR 1879.
The Sun will be printed every day during
the year 10 com*. Its purpose hi and method
will be the same as in the past: To present
all t e new in a readable shape, and to tell
the truth though the heavens fail.
Thk Sun *as been, i*, and will con inhe
10 be independent ol everybody and every
thing save the Triul. and us own convictions
of duty Tl tis the only policy which an
honest newspaper need have. That is ti e
policy which has won 1# r this ne*spnpei,
the Cos; fidi nee and tiierdship I u wider
const tueuay man was ever er j yed by hlv
other A meiicm Journal.
Thk Bun is the newspaper for the people.
It is t*o< lor the rich man ; gainst the poor,
or for the poor man a.ainst the rich man,
but it --eeks to do equal jus'ice to all inter
es sin rhe eummuDiiy It i- not the organ
ot ary person, cUB-\ sect or party There
need be no mystery uoout its loves and hates
It is lor the honest man againH the rogues
every time. Ii is lor the honest Democrat
hs against the dishonest Republican, and for
the honest Repuhlicun as agan st the dis
honest /> rnocrat It does rot take Its cue
tr. m li e utterances of any po it'eian or po
litical orgUiizvion. It gives its support an
reservedly when men or rnensu es are in
agreement with the Constitution and with
• lie piincipbs upon which the Republic whs
bunded lor the people. Whenever the
Constitution and coiidii'u'icr.al principles
are violated as in the outr geous conspiiacy
of 1876, by which a in is not elected was
placid in the /Vesident*s e ffic *, wheie he
9: ill remains, it speaks out for the right.
That is ihe b'lTN'aidea of independence. In
rnis respect, there will be no 'change in its
programme for 1879.

The present disjointed condition of par
ies in this country, and the uncertainly of
the future, iena an extraordinary significance
to the events cf the coming year. The
dißcttssions of the press, the debates and
acts of Congress, and the moveineii s of the
leaders in every section of the Repub ic
will have a dircc bear'ng on the Presiden
tial election of 1880, ais event which must
be regarded with the most anxious interest
by eve y patriotic American, whatever bic
political ideas or allegiance. To these els
m-nts of interest may be added tire proba
bility that the Democrats wtll control both
Itousas of Congress, the increasing feebleness
of the fraudulent Administration, anti the
spread nnd strengthening every where of a
beahhy abhor nee of fraud in any form. To
present with accuracy and clearness the ex
act situation in each of its varying phases,
and to exponnd, according to its well known
methods, the principles that should guide us
through the labyrinth, will be an important
