m~.ni. after preparing and nulling public
s list of precincts, late on Tuwday after-
noon—the day Wore the election— ae-
cretly, and without lettliiK tho Conaerra-
D'rm know it, clutn^od the list, and thus
left the latter completely in the dark as
to where many of the precincts were, and
did not make the change public until
l»to on the day of election. By this
means they stuffed the ballot-boi.w at
two or three of these precincts, situated
in the suburbs and convenient to the
country negroes, without the Conserra-
tires'eren knowing that any Toting was
being done at them.
The poll* at the precincts were ter-
rents 1 by deputy eh. .ifT, appointed hy
the scoundrelly Bowen, the bigamist and
murderer, who holds the position of sheriff
of Charleston—all armed with bludgeons,
club* awl revolvers, and who greatly out
numbered tho police. These wretches,
in obedience to instructions, compelled
all naturalised white cititcn* to produce
their papers, and men who hail voted for
twenty y< ire in Charleston, were sent
liack home for them. No questions,
however, were a.kel of the negroes,
and they voted without Iqt or hin-
diano«. In addition to all this, over two
hundred negroes living on felisto island
were brought to the city before dawn on
election .Uy, who, tho News nays, voted
«*rly and often anti just when and where
they phased. These are facts, and tho
New* furnishes the proof. It ray*:
As toon aa the' new* of tho arrival of

uioored. This was nl>ont H o’clock. He
went an lioanl anti found Capt. Tojjlio,
the commander of the reaael. in the sa
loon. In reply to questions asked by the
reporter, the captain stated that his
steamer ha«l nrriveti before daylight in
the morning from EdUto and way bind
ings. That she had brought about two
hundred negroes, who came from Edixto
and various points along the route. That
they hot) not paid their passage, hut tlmt

tier Inad for those coming from the inter
mediate landings. This model sheriff,
xuid possible alderman, was on Edisto in
person, and took passage to tho city on
the Water Lily, a steamer belonging to
the owners of the M. S. Allison. It was
stated that the Water Lily had on board
anot her gang of black voters, but she ran
aground and Bowen came to the city in
u small bout.
Thus have the projv »rty owners and
tax layers of Charleston l»een put under
the brutal foot of a horde of l>urbarianji
and their loathsome white allies—the
meanest gang unhung. They will re
ceive no mercy, and will be picked bare
aa a bona. The robbers and ruffians will
hold their victims with one hand aiul
skin them with tho other; only varying
the monotony of the deal by shouting
hosannahs to their boas at Washington.
QovxnNon Smith, of Georgia, is clearly
a man for an emergency. As a means of
lightening the buxom of tho people of
that State in the present stringency of
the money market, he boa suspended tho
wholesale liquor tax in response to a gen
eral request. What the effect of this
M»*rt of suspension may be is not so clear,
luj* ,t must l*.- fiti mure favorable iu it'
results than the suspension of the banks,

j It is d«**tncd worthy to announce by a
tM**«rram of the Ansoctated Press, that
the erection of the gallows for the execu
tion, of Captain Jack and his comrades,
ha* commence*! at Fort Klamath, and
they would be suspended by the neck in
pulUe, on Friday (yesterday).
We have no apology to offer for the
crime of these savages, which deserves
death, whether committed hy Parthian,
Mode, Cretan, Arabian, Ethiopian or
Indian. But we do say that this public
execution was unnecessary, and will but
serve to inflame to madness the passions
of the revengeful natives. Moreover, in
the sight of High Heaven, we do believe
that those untutored creature* are far
less guilty than Stokes and that hundred*
of unnatural brute*, who, like him, have
been r-ared in the full light of refined
civilization, and under the sound of the
church-going belL Yet. while the poor
Indian is loaded with chains, and treated
with supreme contumely, the bigger vil
lain's prison is converted into a hand
some parlor, and his table permitted to be
supplied with rich win**e and the choicest
viands of the season. Instead, too, of
being sentenced at once, and led forth to
suffer the penalty of his crimes, able and
distinguished counsel moke stirring ap
peals in his behalf, court after oourt
grant new delays, the weaker points of the
law arc all invoked for his benefit, and it
even begins to grow doubtful, whether
legal quirks, so called irregularities, ab
sent witnesses, and the abundant expedi
ents of adroit and well paid counsel, may
not yet eventuate in tho triumphant ac-
qnittol and liberation of this murderer,
who all the world knows shot his victim
in the broad glare of day, and in one of
the most crowded thoroughfares of New
York.
Capt. Jack, in the killing of Gen. Can-
by, was but following out the moral code
of his nation, which inculcates the re
venge of slain kindred, os a duty and car
dinal virtue. He was a pagan, and ig
norant of those religions teachings which
might have t.aught him to live and act
otherwise. This is no excuse in the eye
of civil law, but in the presence of the
Great Judge of good and evil, if the
Scriptures are interpreted correctly, he
will be beaten hereafter with “few stripes”
only. Moreover, this heathen has chal
lenged the admiration of the world by
his subsequent gallant defence, and un-
jiaralleled achievements in arms against
o lds, a hundred-fold strong. There is no
comparison between the two men, though,
by tho inexorable decrees of human jus
tice, loth should suffer death.
But now let na take another view of
tho execution of this bold savage. If he
was doomed to death for the perpetration
of a cold-blooded and treacherous murder,
how can the same Government which
pronounce and executes the sentence, per
mit to escape scot free, and without oven
the formality of a judicial investigation
its own officials, who perpetrated a crime
precisely similar, upon the unsuspecting
kinsmen and tribe of Capt. Jack. Indeed
they may in a certain sense be considered
responsible for both acta of atrocity, as
the first was the proximate cause of tho
last. Now it is gravely asserted upon the
best authority, and has never been denied,
tlmt a certain Lieutenant in command of
a detachment of United States troops,
several years since, after inviting the
Modocs to a peaceful interview, at a given
signal shot down, and remorselessly slew
many of them, including women and chil
dren. And this explains the tragio fall
of Canby and the attack upon the Peace
Commissioners. In tho name of justice
and humanity, we trust this damning
stain upon the flag of a great nation and
most barbarous murder, may bo followed
by the prosecution and punishment of
the guilty offenders. Nothing le*is will
serve to vindicate our government from
tho charge of tho grossest partiality in
the premises, and a revenge upoif a weak
and fragmentary tribe of savages equally
Sanguinary, and far less excusable than
their own crime.
“Mine Host Moon” in Trouble.
Tho genial landlord of the Lake nouse,
near Saratoga, it seems, got himself into
hot water for his frank and outspoken ut
terances concerning the folly and effects
of tho war, spoken last month in tho
presence of a party of Macon gentlemen,
and reported in this paper.
Tho New York Tribune of September
30th, devotes about a column to this
“broken-hearted Boniface,” as it styles
him. and berates him soundly for his
timeservice and toadyism to Southern
people.
Among other hard speeches, the editor
said: “What a foolish old fellow this was
to tell these Southerners that he loved
them for tho ironey which thoir kind
used to spend in hU house. Why, that sort
of fawning flapdoodle went out of fashion
years ago, and this blubbering antique
doesn't know the South no longer relishes
it, if it was ever really relished in that
quarter—doesn't know even that it isn't
good breeding to remind those who have
been rich of their losses and present
poverty,” etc.
Now we must take tho part of our
Landlord, who differs in a single particu
lar only from his Northern brethren, in
thier estimate of the liberal bloods from
Dixie in the olden time, who wore wont to
dispense their dollars like rain drops among
them. They only ihmk what he had the
manhood to soy. And, moreover, that
hotel keepers in Gotham, and merchants,
too, of every description, miss the huge
sums formerly paid them by Southern
tourists, is a fact thay have never pre
tended to deny. A little of the old Radi
cal leaven, we think, is discernible in the
article of our contemporary, who! don't
relish the plain talk of the landlord con
cerning the war. Doubtless* tho term
doughface, copperhead and even traitor
rose to his lips. But old Boniface was
right.
Good Hews for tlic Planters.
A considerable quantity of cotton has
changed hands within the past day or
two at fair prices, and a brisk demand is
springing up for the article. Some $20,000
just received have been thus applied, and
are now afloat in the country, and other
remittances are on the way.
The situation is daily improving, and
matters would soon become quite easy,
but for one difficulty, which we trust will
( prove only temporary. This results from
I the fact that the late certificates issued
i bv the New Y*«rk hanks are selling there
! at a discount of three to fitti p*?f cent, for
j currency, and our bankers and merchant;*
I can’t afford to pay such rates for money,

though perfectly available to pay all debts
due iu that city, dollar for dollar, of course,

planters, who must have cuirefi'y only.
Tbs receipts of oot-ton, too, continue to
be excellent.

The Chronicle and Sentinel says one
of the most prominent business men of

the Board of Directors of the Georgia

that the pressure could be removed from
the entire Southern country east of the
Mississippi river by the Georgia railroad
and the Central railroad each issuing a
million of dollars in note*. These two
roods, he rays, possess the entire confi
dence of tho people, and their notes would
be taken in preference to greenbacks.
This circulating medium would enable the
planter* to bring forward their cotton
immediately, and thus the present em
barrassment would be completely re
moved.”

Link or Shakers Between Port

received yesterday by Maj. Geo. T. Jack-
son, from Mr. D. F. Appleton, to tho ef
fect that the Dominion Line of Steamers
had been secured to run between Liv
erpool and Port Royal, and that 300 tons
of coal would be wanted at the latter
place on the 20th of November nert, at
which time the first of the Bteamers will
certainly arrive from Liverpool. This
steamer will thus bo the meant courier of
a splendid line, which will run regularly
between England’s great seaport and

Fever Excitembnt Died Out:—We

publish it to settle any fears that may bo

Tins good hit is from Harris* stalwart

A correspondent, having observed that
some of the Georgia paper* have “man
aging editors,” writes to find out some
thing about the duties ofthe position and
the pecuniary emoluments attached there
to. Managing editors on Southern papers
have a very easy time. They hunt over
the exchanges for poetry and old jokes,
help do up the mails and occasionally
work off a small job on the hand-press.
They also read the proofs of advertise
ments, and are expected to ask the fore
man out to drink. We find it cheaper to
employ an office-boy. The salary of a
first-class managing editor is sometimes
as high as fifteen dollar* a month.
Mr. James Matt Ware, & well-known

II$tt the Courier-Journal ‘‘Went
For” an Irate Correspondent,
Mr. Wm. Fitzsimmons, of Elizabeth
town, Term., having bent a communica
tion to the Courier-Journal which that
paper did not see proper to print, writes
the editor* what he doubtless considered
a “scorcher** for their lack of apprecia
tion of his merit* a* a correspondent.
The editors were nearly knocked out of
time, but rallied sufficiently to come back
at Fitz after this fashion:
We beg leave to assure Mr. Fitzper-
simtnons, in the humblest manner possi
ble, that if his communication failed to
appear—which it probably did—which,
of course, it did, or he wouldn’t have said
so—the fault was not ours; that if it had
fallen into our hands we would have pub
lished it, if it had been the last official act
of our lives. If we have longed for one
thing above aU others for many weary
years, it was for a brief communk-ation—
the briefer the better, permit us to say—
from Mr. Persimmons, and we would not
have missed the one to which he so gra
ciously refers for untold piles of pure, un
alloyed gold. We are confident that its
publication would have made the fortune
of the Courier-Journal, and the day upon
which we are told that it is perhaps lost
to us forever is the darkest and saddest of
our miserable ^md worthless lives. We
weep and mourn and squeal to think that
Mr. Simmons is forever lost to us as a
subscriber to our weekly, and, If the banks
all want to break now, they may break
and be hanged to them.
Fate has done her worst- We have
discharged everybody connected with this
office who could possibly have had any
thing whatever to do "with th? irrepara
ble loss of Mr. Persimmons' invaluable
communication, and shall discharge our-
sdves as soon as wo can find some hum
ble employment elsewhere.
A Godsend to Them.
We fear the late smash np at the North

things can’t last always, and very soca the
wht*»t ^ill be sifted from the chaff, and

upon their creditors, will Had theiu»elvt»s

DAY DISPATCHES.
The Fever at Montgomery.
Montoomert, Ala., October 3.—There
have been no yellow fever cases since
Monday last, and only five deaths from
the disease since September 23d. There
are only four cases—ail mild- but one—-
under treatment.
The Disenfte at Shreveport
Shreveport, October 3.—There were
twelve dt-aths yesterday from yellow
stretch of splints and bandages, lotions j ^ erer '
^ and plasters, opiates and stimulants, with fA r
A. Thuluck, D. D., of Halle, Gernany, |
was next read by Dr. Witte, of Koehee,
recurring parorysmf, spasms, and con
vulsions, and never sound health in body
or limb. Shall it be surgery or quackery?
We must choose between them. To-day’s
opportunity is for the country, for the
dominant party, for the President, who
has buC to put forth his hand and seize it,
to make himself a great name, give his
party the new prestige that it needs, and
••^tablish it firmly in power - and lift "the
whole country up to pure air and solid
ground.
Let the President is«me his proclama
tion convening Congress in an extra ses
sion at eight or ten days* notice, with the
sole object, distinctly stated in the call,
of legislating for the immediate resump
tion of specie payments. For ten days
past people have done almost nothing but
stand in front of their lialance sheets and
inventories and see a rapid and constant
shrinkage in values. And there’s no
knowing where it will stop or when, for
the simple reason that there is no finan
cial hardpan. It has been abolished by
law. For eleven years we have gone on
doing business with irredeemable prom
ises, We have taken notes of each other
and paid them with tho notes of the Gov
ernment, which themselves were with
out relations to anything having a fixed
value—unstable and irredeemable. So
long as we are content to do business
upon the system of renewals, giving and
taking new notes for old ones—with gov
ernment setting the example—we seem to
l>e prosperous and healthy—we grow up
in full enjoyment of the dropsy, or rather
we bulge out like The Graphic balloon
into beautiful proportions, with a “rip
line’* hanging within anybody's reach.
Then comes a time 1 —it has come to us—
when people begin to inquire what the
piper represents and to grope for a stand
ard of values. Everthing tumbles, and
business stands still except in bankruptcy
courts till that standard is reached. Let
us have that establDhed by resuming
specie payments. We have had quite
enough of ballooning; enough of this run
ning speculation-mad, of kiting stoeks, of
laying railroad ties on moonbeams, giving
mortgages on fog banks, and calling our
selves stout because we have gorged our
selves with tho east wind.
Some time we must get back to specie.
That’s admitted. Why not now ? When
will there be a better time? When
would the country be more benefitted by
it than now ? There ought to bo states
manship enough in Congress to devise a
simple, practicable method. It is not the
province of journalism to legislate, and
legislatures are proverbially jealous of
interference with their functions by the
press. Wo suggest nothing except that
Congress be summoned together for this
purpose and this only, not to putter over
and tinker up matters, but simply to leg
islate for resumption.
Wall Street on Monday.
The Herald’s money, article, of Tues
day, says:
Not a cloud, even so large as a man's
hand, could be discerned to-day on the
horizon of Wall street, and' it was only
here and there that one heard a doubt
expressed that the force of the storm ha*
not passed away, to be succeeded by a
healthier calm. * Money was easier, loan
ing with considerable freedom at I per
cent, and interest. This, in itself, was
significant. The bankers considered a
plan for the purchase of exchange and the
movement of crops. This was also en
couraging. The Sub-Treasurer began
the payment of the anticipated November
interest—likewise a hopeful sign—while
the reports pouring in across tho ocean
cable, of gold en route and a buoyant
market in London, served to cap-sheaf all
the encouraging features of the situation
and give to men more hopeful faces and
cheerier voices than they have had for a
week.
COIN FOR AMERICA.
The shipment of coin from England to
America has not abated. It is estixnatjd
that fully $8,000,000 are now en route, to
bo added to which are .£124,000 with
drawn to-day; £225,000 in bullion shipped
from Plymouth on Saturday in the
steamer Silesia; £16,000 on the same
day per steamship America, and £50,000
engaged for the steamer Donau, which
sails to-morrow. Five hundred thousand
pounds are said to be booked for ship
ment this week, besides the amounts
above named. These reveral amounts,
coming here at a time when so much 13
dependent on the movement of grain,
cannot but produce a decidedly beneficial
effect upon # that market.
Tho Northern Pacific Railroad.
This monster concern which has come
to a stand-still since Jay Cooke went un
der, has $25,009,000of outstanding bonds.
He will bo a hardy legislator who has
the cheek to propose any further subsi
dies from the government in its behalf.
Apropos, the World thus treats of the
matter:
It appears to us, and we believe to the
bulk of the voting population of the Uni
ted States, that the government has al
ready done all that it can for the North
ern Pacific railroad enterprise. The
grantees of tho franchise accepted it with
its gifts of lands and its conditions, and
must take the consequences of failure as
they would have reaped tlfb profits of suc
cess. No plea of military or commercial
necessity can be made for this road; those
arguments were closed when the Union
Pacific line met the Central Pacific, com
pleting an unbroken route from New
York to San Francisco, in May, I860.
The declaration of the Press about com
peting with the masters of the Suez Canal
for the boundless trade of Asia is simple
fas tain. Not a fact exists of importance
sufficient to justify the United States in
taking up the unfinished enterprise of
Jay Cooko A Co.
We understand that Judge Johnson, of
the Chattahoochee Circuit, at the late
session of Talbot Superior Court, made a
decision in regard to homesteads that had
been sold, important to the public. The
Talbotton Standard, in a late issue, has
the following in regard thereto:
In the coarse of an opinion Judge John
son decided that where a homestead had
been set apart and afterwards sold,prior to
tho decision of the United States Supreme
Court on the homestead 1aws, that the
purchaser gets good title against all exe
cutions whatever that may be on. the
property. Under the above decision there
are six appeals to the Supreme Court.

The Fever at Memphis.
Memhis, October 3.—There were forty-
one interments yesterday. An appeal for
aid states that the fever is increasing,
and daily business is raqpoBded. The
charitable societies have exhausted their
store. Money is what we need to pay
nurses and buy food, bury the dead and
shelter the orphan* and helpless.

NIGHT DISPATCHES.
New York Evangelical Conference•
Washington, October 3.—Tho New
York Evangelical Conference opened
with prayer this morning at Madison
square church, and tho formal opening for
business took place later in' Steinway
Hall. The vast hall was crowded to ex
cess with delegates. They swarmed out
on the lobbies on the stairs at either end
of the block through which the hall ex
tends. The large platform was so crowd
ed that as early as ten o’clock there was
hardly standing room. Oriental dele
gates in white tartans were conspicuous
objects in the vicinity of the chair. |
Hon. Wm. E. Dodge called the meet
ing to order and said: “You are here as
sembled, from all part* the world—from
countries having institutions and laws
quite different from ours. As far a* we
seek no alliance with the State, we only
ask the protection and full enjoyment of
religious hbertp. [Great applause]. We
trust that many of you will have an op
portunity of visiting our far Western
lands, and beyond our inland seas, and of
seeing the marvellous extension our coun
try is undergoing. When we visit your
countries we are deeply interested in
looking over works of centuries—your
grand cathedrals and your cities of re
nown. When you come here we ask you
to look at what has mainly been accom
plished in a single century. The object
of your meeting has been discussed for a
long time, and Hie country is alive to
to this convocation. Not only our own,
but other lands are viewing you with in
tense interest. The eyes of God and
man are on us. (Applause.) Let us
hope that the blessing of God may be
upon us. Everything possible has been
done for your comfort. I give you the
sentiments of all our hearts in a most
cordial welcome to our country, our
home and our hearts.” (Applause.) .
After sinking the dorology, drayer was
given by Rev. Dr. Hodge, of Princeton.
Rev. Dr. Kigg. of London, next read a
portion of the 17th chapter of St. John,
after which there was prayor by Rev.
Wales Prochct, of Italy, and was followed
by the Dean of Canterbury with the creed.
The entire conference then rose and sang
with one voice the Evangelical Hymn—
coronation. The business of affecting a
permanent organization was then taken
up, and a list of officers read and adopted.
Dr. Theo. D. Woolsey, of New Haven,
was apppointed President; Dr. S. J.
Prime, General Secretary. Among the
Vice Presidents were Wm. F. Havemeyer,
Lord Alfred Churchill, of England; Hon.
R. C. Winthrop, of Massachusetts; Rev. A.
JDooner, Rev. Mr. Buckinham, of Connecti
cut ; Wm. E. Dodge, New York; Rev. Dr.
Sehenek and others, were appointed hon
orary Secetaries.
The President, Dr. Woolsey, then took
the chair amid applause, and delivered
his address. He said, “We are met here
to-day because we believe in the commun
ion of Saints. [Applause.] We believe
that man, in his nature, his aspirations,
his senses of want, his need of redemption,
is one [applause,] and that-Gpd is one,
and that in all the various unfolding
of Christian character and Christian life
then is one Christian character— the
spirit of love for God and man, resting in
Jesus Christ our Load, in the hope of re
demption through him. [Applause.] We
believe in one great universal church
that has lasted through all time
until now, and i-? fo wsti to the cud
of all tilings. Notw it lie tan' ling the effi
cacy of prayer has been demon dr.ited by
science [great laughter and applause],
the church goes on praying still all the
same, and a* long ai t’icrti are Christians
in the world they will pray incessantly in
spite of all logical conclusions. [Ap
plause]. Thus, too, we believe in the
diffusiveness of the Gospel. Gentlemen,
I need not repeat the welcome already
given to you, yet, as your President, I
may once more say to you that we wel
come you all: we welcome the Lutheran
—we welcome the children of free, he
roic Switzerland, and representatives of
France—the much suffering and glorious
church of France—we welcome those
from all other parts of Europe, and those
who have come like first fruits iron the
Eastern lands.”
It was then announced that it had
been agreed upon that pastors should
make their own arrangement* with dele
gate* a* to services.
The Dean of Canterbury then read a
letter from the Archbishop of Canterbury
praying for God’s blessing on the effort*
for the spread of reformation. “ Never,”
he says, “ was a time more apt for at
tempting to check the spread of super
stition,” and he trust* all will cordially
