The tame leaders are now trying to defeat
Reconstruction; and If tboy succeed, we
may expect Reconstruction on the basis of
a Test Ostb suffrage. They defeated tlio
first measure because It disabled them from
holding office—not because it prevented
thcnw'rem voting at popular elections.—
Wo have already followed tlds party to
ruin. Let us now make haste to retrace
our steps. .. _
Casein Admission.—The New York
World admits that "at lcaat four years
must elapso before the Reconstruction Acts
can be repealed, eeen though the Democrat!
should wilt Mery election clurfny that period,
If tho Republican party uses its power to
the utmost.”
Commenting on this admission of the
leading Democratic organ in America, the
New York Times says: “Four years will
surely suffice for tho solution of the recoil'
structlon problem. Even supposing that
the present measure may not operato ef
fectually In all Its details, four years will
constitute a period ample for modification,
amendment, and if need be the absolute
enforcement of any probable conditions
which Congress may dictate. And tho four
years’ term, remember, Is predicated on
the assumption that every election from
now till tho end will result Ihvorably to
the Democrats. Tho hypothesis could not
possibly be more inimical to the Republi
cans. But It leaves them four years for the
execution of their policy. More than that
we arc not disposed to desire, unless they
meanwhile prove themselves equal to the
emergency.” _____
Not to bis Bullied.—Tho Intelligencer
calls upon Dr. N. L. AxaiKii and Dr. II. V.
M. Millkii to decline the Reconstruction
nomination as candidates for the Conven
tion, and to “come out from iitnong the
Radicals.”
These gentlemen were nominated by the
friends of Reconstruction by reason of
their peculiar fitness for the position. They
have expressed themselves willing to sen-
in the capacity Indicated; and they arc not
the men to be bullied off the ticket by
opponent. They will be elected, and will
make ablo and efficient members of tho
Convention. Tho slur at Dr. Milleb'i
Whig record, when ho stood manfully
against tho run mad Democracy of 1830,
will make hint votes In this community.
Our people have had quite enough of Dem
ocracy and Secession. They have run that
schedule too long already. They now
mean to reverse the engine.

Military History or Gen. Grant.—
Gen. Badeau, Military Secretary to Gen.
Grant, has completed the first volume of
his work, the “ Military History of U. S.
Grant,” and It Is now In tho press of the
Applctons. and will soon be published. It
extends from the beginning of tlie war
down to and Including the Chattanooga
cnmpalgn, at the close of November, 1803.
THE WEEKLY OHHIOM, .SSjaSS:
Reconstruction Journal in Georgia* »iV
quotlngthe third section of tho reconitrue
tlon law, says:
We are convinced.’from this reading, that
any attempt to vote for delegates. without
voting for or against a Convention, will Ik
futile and cause the vote so cost to be con*
signed to the waste-basket as a blank bal
lot. Thus persuaded, we counsel our peo
ple not to bo led into the folly of voting
or delegates, however worthy, unless they
can agree to vote at the same time for or
ngainst n Convention As tho Conserva
tives have determined not to vote “for a
Convention,” it is presumable that thoy
would. In such nu alternative, vote against
it, while making u choice of delegates, ltut
wc strenuously advise them, slnco they
cannot “hedge” or split the ticket, to ab
stain trom any ami every participation in
tho objuctionablo business.
If we are correctly advised, the Demo
crats In this district have decided to vote
for Delegates, leaving off the material part
of the ballot—that which Is to decide
whether there will -.o a Convention. This
will be practically carrying out the views
of the Constitutionalist*inasmuch as such
ballots will not be considered.
Divided Among Themselves.—Our
Anti-Reconstruction friends In this Sena
torial District seem hopelessly divided
among themselves. Some favor voting for
delegates, leaving the “Convention ” i^sue
to take caro of itself. Others favor voting
“Agaiusta Convention,” whilst others still,
favor non-attendance at the election in the
hope of defeating the Convention scheme
under that clause in the law which requires
a ballot of two-thirds of the registered
voters.
The Marietta Journal (antl-Reconstruc-
tlon) says:
Below, under the inis-nomer of “antl-
Convcntion” will bo found a ticket nomi
nated in Atlanta, for the Convention. We
regret the nomination, regarding it inju
dicious. if it is tho purpose of its friends
to defeat a Convention, and in this regret
we are certaiu that the gentlemen nomina
ted on the ticket in this county, agree with
us. It is absurd to deny the legality or
constitutionality of u Convention, or to
pretend to oppose a Convention aud yet to
run a ticket for it.
I'll to, 0 ^ntonBut a short time since,
\ that you asked the question,
u he’ yi- the difficulty existing between
l*1ii chairman and tho Executive Commit
tee” aud his tatellttes hud been healed? I
suppose from vimt I have heard on the
streets among the “knowing ones” that
perhaps a little M ol} has been thrown upon
the troubled waters. In the Convention
which put In nomination the Conservative
ticket there was some disaffection; the
course of tho “Chairman of the Executive
Committee,” in publishidg his call had in
the estimation of some, taken rather high
grounds- as you will remember he wanted
men selected who were opposed to n Con
vention and against tho principles of the
Kadi cal party—others again were In favor
of running tnen for a convention. This as
matter of course brought down upon the
head of the Chairman tho charge of doing
great injury to the cause for which they
were battling, aud hope that the gentle
man would repudiate his calf—rub out and
begin again. This he could not, consistent
with his heretofore mode of doing business
on Ills “own hook.” because, said he, it
would “stultify mi*;” consequently be view
ed ns a fool. Hut, some how tho mnthw
passed into other hands, and a sort of re-
concilllation affected; in the meantime the
Chairman hop'd upon a limb,
He peep’d at them, anti they peep'd at him.
The call wus made—but all in vain,
For we never heard of John again I"
But, really to be serious—1 am under the
impression that I might memtion another
who seems desirous to lead on to tho victo
ry thone gentlemen who have been put in
the field for the Conventional race, whose
pledges for support have been long and
strongly made, but, so far I have not been
able to see it in that light, And really.
Messrs. Editors. I have known men in my
life who were always willing to be looked
up to, and direct the storm, if they were
not involved in the responsibility and
eould always Ikj on the safe side. Such
men nre always unreliable—anil had advi
sers. If you will show me a man with a
hold and n fearless spirit, I will show you
a man of noble traits of character, until*-
ingenergy, ready for every emergency that
presents itself in politic* or religion. ‘

A Boston correspondent of the New York
Kxrcsss gives some additional statements
of the affair, which he says arc in every
body's mouth, but which may possibly be
erroneous In detail, though correct proba

substance ns follows:
Baron Holstein was written to by Mr.
Sumner, and, report says, insinuated some
thing not honorable to the wife, which was
promptly repelled in tho Baron's reply.—
Air. Sumner, ns chairman of our commit
tee of Foreign Affairs, then wrote to the
Prussian Minister of Foreign Affairs, the
distinguished Bismarck, that if he (B.)
would recall the Baron, he (8.) would be
obliged. The adroit Bismarck yielded to
the potential |K>*itiou of the American
chairman of Foreign Affairs, and the Baron
was recalled to Berlin. Mrs. Sumner next
became acquainted with the alleged facts
of the correspondence, and indignantly
packed up and went to Europe. Mr. Sum

Meditated anything of the kind or would
attempt to carry it into effect. While out In
the woods on this occasion, he took his
smaller brother to a bush not over six feet
high, and bonding it down, told his sister
to hold it, while lie tied one of the strings
mentioned around Ills brother's neck and
fastened the other end to the top of the
bush, and then let it go. The bush, howev
er, had not sufficient spring to strangle the
little fellow,and only clinked him ton slight
extent. The elder brother then untied him
and took him to a stump which had a pro
jecting limb, aud tried hard to hang him to
it; but tho conl| after passing around his
neck, was not long enough to tic around
the limb, and lie abandoned the attempt.
Having tailed to hang his brother, th
hoy tin n seems to lmvc determined to ban,
himself, and climbing up a suppling, nbou
fifteen feet high and about the thlcKiiessc
a man's arm ai the ground, he made a slip*
noose with the cord, which lie placed
around his neck, and tying the other end
to the top of the suppling no jumped from
the bush, bending it down with his weight,
and being strangled almost instantly by
the noose tightening on his neck.
The brother and sister ran to the house
and gave the alarm, but when assistance
arrived the boy was quite dead. His knees
were on the ground and tho cord stretched
tight by the spring of the suppling. The
small string used had made the work of
death sudden and sure.
The whole affair is a very singular one,
considering the youtlfof the victim. Tho
act was clearly premeditated, and the prob
able effect of the means understood.—

wood to Mr. J. Baiahdph Tucker, one of
Mr. Davis* counsel. The latter took n copy
of it. but would give no reply until after
he shall have consulted the counsel associ
ated with him.
As intimated above. Mr. Havin' bond
does not expire until the fourth Monday in
November, and the court nicer* sooner.—
Even should Mr. DavD waive Ills rights
under the bond, and agree to go to trial
sooner* It is hardly possible that Judge
Chase can preside through the whole trial
if he is determined upon being present at
the U. S. Supreme Court in December, us
it is not probable that the trial could be
•hided by that time.

from activity in his chosen prote*«ion, when hi*
fellow-citizens, with great uu-iiiulty, twice se
lected him to tho re6|Mm»iblc position of Ordinary
of his county. Ills death leaves a wiuowe l wife
