JLTLANTA, Q-JN.z
SATURDAY MORNING::: OCTOBER 5.
Thx Executive and 11k. Dm’is.—It
turns out that “ the Executive is not inter
esting itself about the trial of Mr. Davis.”
The only parties North who ever have “in
terested ” themselves in the case of Mr.
Davis, were those outside the Executive
Sing. According to Mr. Johnson's theo
ry, Mr. Davis is a traitor, and deserves the
halter; according to Mr. Greeley and
others of the Congress party, Mr. Davis is
nothing hut the defeated, powerless and
of an overthrown empire,
be act at liberty, as Toombs
and others have been. In the case of Mr.
Davis, Johnson has done as little to merit
the confidence and love of the Southern
people, as in the other acts of his life. It
is Mr. Johnson who has thrown the ob
stacles in the way of Mr. Davis’ trial; it
is Mr. Johnson who has brought the South
ern people to the very brink of ruin; and
yet—strange infatuation!—it is Mr. John
son whom our Democratic friends have se
lected as their standard-bearer; the same
Johnson, who betrayed the Brbckinjudge
party in 1861, and who betrayed the oppo
site party three years afterward.
Gen. Grant and the Nashville Elec
tion.—It has been claimed that General
Grant does not sympathize with the
Bownlow party, sad General Thomas act
ed in the matter of the late election with
out instructions from his superior. The
following dispatch which General Gea nt
sent to Genral Thomas on the day pending
the election in Nashville,, shows how ut
terly false are such statements: \; ■
Washington, D. C., Sept., 77, 1867.
To Major Gen. G. fl. Thomas:
I will ssnd you further instructions to
morrow. Nothing is clearer, however,
than that the military cannot be made use
of to defeat the executive of the State in
administering the laws of the State. You
will not prevent the legal State force from
the execution of its orders.
U. S. Grant, General.
On the evening of the same day, Mayor
Brown addressed a note tWOen. Thomas,
to the effect that he had no disposition to
engage in a conflict with the State Execu
tive, but simply wished the privilege of
holding the election in accordance with
the provisions of the city charter, and
asked the General if he intended to nphold
the militia, should the latter interfere with
the election appointees of the city. To
this. General Thomas replied as follows:
I have to ssy that the proper interpreta
tion of General Grant’s telegram order is
to sustain the State authories. In the exe
cution of their orders it is not left to me
to decide the question of the legality or
illegality of the election ordered by you.
Upon receiving this response, Mayor
Brown at once telegraphed to President
Johnson,laying the whole correspondence
before him, and asking if theeity authori
ties would have to he governed by General
Grant’s order. No response was received
from the President.
Bradley and His Crew.—Respectable
white men withdraw from the Radical
Ticket nominated in Savannah—the asso
ciations being inconsistent with “the pro
tection of property and a proper admin-
i-t ration or justice.”—Exchange.
This paragraph misrepresents facts ;
whether so designed, we undertake not to
■ay. but such is the case.
The “association” referred to is Brad-
i rv*» crew, whom the Military dispersed a
tew days since; and with whom the “re
spectable white” men referred to, never
acted or officiated. We have bad men in
all parties—we even have them in all
Churches—but when they voluntarily cut
loose from the organization proper, and
seek to establish some new creed, it cannot
be truthfully said that the party or Church
bolted and left them. It was they who left
the party. We understand, however, that
Bradley and his associates have repented
their folly, and are now quite willing to
behave themselves. We hope they will
make good their commendable resolution,
and quit their foolery.
Financial Troubles.—The gold and
cotton markets are at right angles; one ad
vances and the other recedes, in one and
the same day. Can anything better illus
trate the present deranged and unsettled
condition of the country ? Can anything
be more significant? The political trou
bles in Europe have assumed such propor
tions as to threaten suspension in the man
ufacture, of cotton fabrics. Consequently,
the Liverpool cotton market is depressed.
Gold In New York advances in anticipa
tion of a return from Europe of Govern
ment securities. This creates a sensation
in the commercial circles throughout the
South and West. It makes creditors im
portunate, and conspires to cripple the ef
forts of the debtor to meet his obligations.
Capital, apprehensive of the future, avoids
investments. Creditors arc pressed in to
Ivankruptcy; and Confidence, the very ba
sis of commercicl prosperity, is lost. So
we go.

FROM THE HEW TORE PRESS ASSOCIATTOE
The Louisiana Election.—The indiffer
ence manifested by the white population
of New Orleans, and, indeed, of the whole
Mate of Ixmisiana. in the late election, is
among the most mournful signs of the
times. In the city of New Orleans the
vote is nearly twenty-six hundred less
than a majority of registered voters. Very
few of the whites, it seems, voted, as nearly
nine-tenths of the votes cast were polled
by negroes. The consequence will be that
the negroes and the very few white men
•» ho voted, will control the policy of the
State and give it a Constitution for years
to come. This culpable neglect on the
part of the white voters will be repented
of when it is too late.
Tar. Alabama Election.—The white
voters of Alabama seem foolishly indiffer
ent over an issue which is to decide their
weal or woe for years to come. They
have given over the State to the control of
of the non-property holding class; these
arc to frame their future Constitution and
direct the political destinies of that once
great and powerful State. Is it not strange
that intelligent men will thus trifle with
their own interests and prove recreant to
the claims of posterity ?
Public School in Cass County.—There
will be a meeting in Cartersville, to-day,
tor the purpose of taking into considera
tion the prosperity of, and to devise means
to build up first-class schools in that place,
This is a matter, says the Express, in which
not only the parents in the country are in
terested, but two good High Schools, with
one hundred and fifty scholars, such as will
do more for the prosperity of Cartersville
than ten court houses. School houses for
the purpose can be built, teachers compe
tent can be had, and the work can and will
be done.
Whitfield County.—The Republicans
of Whitfield county, met in Convention at
the Court House, on^he first inst, and
nominated N. P. Harben, Esq., as their
candidate for the approaching State Con*
▼entrap
S
Letter from Hon. Bxverdy Johnson.—
The Augusta Republican publishes the fol
lowing letter from Senator Johnson to a
citizen of Augusta:
Baltimore, Aug. 23d, 1867,
Dear Sir : I have to-day yonre of the
19th.
By this mail, I forward you a copy of a
minority report made by me, on the con
dition of the States. The opinion it main
tains is still mine.
My reason for the votes to which you re
fer were given at the time in two or three
short speeches, afterwards published in
pamphlet. As soon as I can get one I will
send you a copy.
As you will see, the vote was given un
der a conviction that the measure, if adop
ted, would save the people of the South
from confiscation, and the violent meas
ures against which I feared no judicial re
lief could be had.
If the States are represented, I have a
strong hope, almost an assurance that ere
long all the restrictions the reconstruction
Acts contain will be removed. This I know
is the belief and wish of many leading Re
publicans of both branches of Congress,
certainly of the Senate.
I agree with you, that the defeat of
Douglas, by Democratic defections, was a
fatal mistake.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
Beverdy Johnson.
Mr. Johnson is actuated by the same
motives which operate to cause several
prominent gentlemen in Georgia, to advo
cate Reconstruction. He therefore belongs
to Gen. Wright’s catagory of “White Nig
gers.”
Sheriff of Spalding County.—Mr.
Swayze, of the Griffin Union, and the
Sheriff of that county have had some per
sonal misunderstanding, and perhaps a
fight also. Wherefore we find the follow
ing paragraph in that paper of yester
day :
Wo deem it our duty to call upon Gen.
Pope to relieve the present Sheriff of this
county, and appoint in his place a man who
will do his duty regardless of the color of
the skin of those with whom he has to
deal. We want an impartial officer—one
who will not keep a warrant in his pocket
to protect a white defendant because the
prosecutor happens to be black.
We take it that Gen. Pope will not re
move a faithful officer for having given
personal offense to the editor of the Union!
Personal matters should be settled other
wise. If the gentlemen are not satisfied,
let them fight again! Such cases do not
properly come under Gen. Pope’s jurisdic
tion. They relate to the jus honorarium.
E3TThe chances are, if the Southern
States will vote down the Military scheme,
Congress will come to its senses.—Ex
change.
The same argument, it will be remem
bered, was used against the ratification of
the Constitutional Amendments in Octo-
lier of last year. We know the result
Shall we continue to reap the fruits of
Folly ? Is the hope that “Congress will
come to its senses” sufficient reason for the
rejection of the proposed measure of
Peace? Was the hope that the North would
grow tired of the war. and ultimate]}* cease
its prosecution, realized in 1803-04? In
short, have any hopes, based upon an an
ticipated reaction in Northern public sen
timent, ever been realized ?
“Intrepid” English.—If the use of bad
English were an unpardonable sin, some of
the prominent politicians and statesmen of
the present day could not hope to escape
eternal punishment. In a speech of Gov
Geary, of Pennsylvania, recently delivered
at Harrisburg, in that State, he declared
that Mr. Johnson had “disrespected the
graves of brave Union men,” etc. Some
body once asked how the Duke of Welling
ton spoke French. “Just as he fights,” re
plied his friend; “with the greatest intre
pidity.” Gov. Geary imitates the Duke’s
courage in his encounters with the Eng-
lish. __________
Gen. Fletcher and Gen. Grants—A
Washington letter to the New York Times,
dated Sept. 29th, says:
Gov. Fletcher, of Missouri, who has been
here recently settling the war claims of
his State against the Government, had an
interview with Gen. Grant yesterday, the
result of which has not transpired. The
Governor, however, is very emphatic in his
expressions of satisfaction with the views
entertained by Gen. Grant regarding recon
struction affaire.
Gov. Fletcher, it will he remembered, is
to Missouri very much what Brownlow is
to Tennessee.
New Orleans, Oct 4.-rThere Were
75 interments from yellow fever foil the
twenty-four hours ending at 6 o’clootythis
morning, an increase of 19 over the pre
vious day.
Thq-weather turned cold last night) with
chilly rains to-day.
Special Order No. 154, dated Oofc M,
discharges all the Boards of Registration,
except the Chairmen, who take charge of
the registration lists, books and papers,
and whose duty it shall be to forward them
to the District Headquarters without up*
necessary delay. The Chairmen of th«
Boards are held responsible for the execu
tion of this Order.
.fudge Aheli, counserfor Henry Smith,
accused of perjury, filed an exception yes
terday. The case is being tried before As
sistant Recorder Dunn, of the Second Dis
trict Court. Dunn is a negro lately elected
by the new Council. Judge Abell, in his
exception, sets forth that Dunn, being a
negro, was not recognized by the laws of
Louisiana as a citizen, and hence not
legally an officer. Justice Dunn overruled
the exception, tried the case and difftijigg
ed the prisoner. The prosecuting witno#
refused to take the stand or be sworn
while the negro was acting as Recorder. He
was asked if he intended to insult the
Court. He was fined twenty-five dollars.
Washington, Oct. 4.—Contract closed
by the Post Master General, through W.
D. Mann, the Assessor of the Internal
Revenue at Mobile, with the Mobile Trade
Company, for a tri-weekly steamboat mail
between Mobile and Selma. Service to
commence) October the 10th. Post Offices
will be opened immediately at all the im
portant landings on the Alabama River.
Lewis D. Campbell has taken the stump in
Ohio in favor of the Democrats.
J* W. Bell has been appointed Collector
of Customs at Corpus Christi, Texas, vice
McIntyre.
The speech of S. S. Cox at Columbus,
Ohio, and the proceedings of the Demo
cratic Convention at Albany, is having
a cheering effect on Bank men and capi
talists.
A special from Nashville says Brown-
low’s election to the Senate is conceded.
Revenue receipts to-day $1,000,000
Customs for the week $4,250,000.
Richmond, Oct. 4.—General Schofield’s
order prescribing the mode of election is
as follows:
The civil police arc to keep order at the
polls, and to be held responsible for any
disorder. Registering officers, during the
election, shall have the powers of Military
Commissioners. A registered voter ar
rested for any offense on election^ day,
must be allowed to vote before he is€aken
to jail. In districts where there arej over
500 voters, separate places shall be ppy.idod
for the whites and blacks. No candidate
for the Convention shall officiate as At reg
istering officer in the election. All liquor
shops in the vicinity of the polls shall be
closed.
Officers o the United States Circuit
Court are arranging preliminaries for the
trial of Mr. Davis ou the first of Novem
ber.
Judge Underwood, to-day, overruled the
motion to quash the indictment in the Rev
enue fraud Oise, on the ground of waut of
jnrisdiction. He overruled it on the
ground that the law of 1729 gives the
Court jurisdiction over all cases whether
named by Congress or not.
St. Louis, Oct. 4.—Thos. E. Noel, mem
ber of Congress from this State, is dead.
New York, Oct. 4.—Elias Howe, the
