The general opinion of politicians now seems to bo that Ohio and In diana will vote in November as they did in October, and that the party which carries New York will win the Presidentialjraoe. The Louisville Courier-Jour rial in sists that a motion to withdraw Hayes has really been entertained by Radical leaders slnco the Ohio and Indiana elections, but thinks that they will not venture to doit, on account of the short time now allowed. It says it was Zach Chan dler’s scheme. We have alluded to the unfair ap portionment laws of Indiana, by which the Radicals, though beaten over five thousand votes in the con test for Governor and other State of ficers, have been enabled to elect a majority of the Congressmen and probably the Legislature. Tho In dianapolis Sentinel says that under these apportionments tho Demo crats must have a majority of 17,000 of the popular vote in order to con trol the Legislature and have a ma jority of the Congressmen. We copy some affidavits in refer ence to the murder of whites by the negroes at Gainhoy, near Charleston. The News also publishes verbal state ments by a number of eye-witnesses, white and black, all agreeing that the negroes commenced the conflict and that they had arms concealed in a house and in the woods near by— and this after they had agreod with the Democrats to carry no arms. The whole testimony and all the cir cumstances show that it was a delib erately planned conspiracy to get the whites into an ambush unarmed and kill a number of them ; and there is scarcely a doubt that white Radicals planned the whole thing. • ♦ * ' 1.., The Atlanta Constitution of Thurs day announces that hereafter Capt. E. P. Howell and H. W. Grady will be on its editorial staff. The pre mature report that Col. Clarke had sold his Interest in the Constitution appears to have been substantiated. Mr. Grady is well known as one cf the readiest, spiciest and most enter taining writers for the Georgia press; and Capt. Howell, who is now a State Senator, is one of the ablest and most promising young politicians and lawyers in the State. Wo wish the Constitution a long continuance, and even au improvement, of the prosperity and distinction which it has heretofore enjoyed, and we doubt net that it will attain it with such able editorial acquisition. The Tammany Hall division of the New York city Democracy made their nominations for local officers on Thursday. No nominations for Anti- Tammany are yet reported, and we are led to hope by the announce ment of Morrissey’s withdrawal from that organisation, that it will make no nominations. The general esti mate is that Tammany has about two-thirds of the Democratic votors in the city, and Anti-Tammany the other third. It was upon this esti mate that the basis for a division of offices was agreed upon—an agree mentfound to be impracticable when they undertook to carry out its de tails. The following are the nomina tions of the Tammany wing: Smith Ely, jr., for Mayor; Bernard Reilley, for Sheriff; Deiaud C. Calvin, for Surrogate; Henry A. Gumbleton, for County Clerk; John J. Friedman, for J edge of the Superior Court. Nomi nations for Coroners and Aldermen at large, were also made. Sugar.— The New Orleans Demo crat thinks that the era of cheap su gar passed away with the era of slave labor, and that the prico in the future is more likely to be higher than low er than at the preseut. The Demo crat says on this subject: “The truth is, sugar has not yet come down to free labor prices. We have no slave cotton producing countries with which to compete, and there fore we can still control that market; but in sugar, it is different. Fifty years ago all the sugar of the world was produced by slave labor. Jamai ca, Porto Rico, Cuba, Mauritius, Louisiana and Brazil, all used slave labor, in its production. Since emancipation has swept this labor away, the price of sugar has doubled, as compared with all other products; it must increase still greater when slavery shall be wholly extinguished, whether appearing in the form of genuine slavery as in Cuba, or as ap prenticeship or eoolieism as in Ja maica and Mauritius. It is the con tinuance of it that keeps sugar still at an artificially low price.” James G. Taliaferro, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, died last Friday at Har risonburg, Catahoula parish. He was nearly eignty-four years of age at the time of his death. ••A HOMO SOUTH " At the North the Radicals have for some time been trying to frighten tho good people with the bugaboo that tho South is about to got control of the Federal Government and run it lu tho Interest of this section—espe cially in the interest of tho “rebels” and their “olaiins.” They say that the South is “solid” for Tlldcn and Hendricks, and if they are elected will dictate the policy of tho new Ad ministration. This charge is not only false, but ridiculously false. The South did not even present to tho St. Louis Convention a candidate for the nomination for either tho Presidency or Vice Presidency. It has not pre sented or desired to present a candi date for either for the last sixteen years. It has not only supported Northern men, but the most earnest Union men of the North—even tak ing Liberal Republicans in 1872. It Is now supporting Northern Demo crats whoso fidelity to the Union can not be questioned,fand who are men of too much decision and firmness to bo swayed by any soctional influ ence or interest—much less in oppo sition to their own section. But if the South is to be “solid” for Tilden and Hendricks, why is it that the whole available army of the United States is now overrunning South Carolina ? Why is it that ne gotiations are reported for overrun ning Louisiana in the same way? Clearly because these two aro regard ed as the Southern States which can most easily be carried for Hayes and Wheeler with tho help of tho Federal army. This is the whole secret of this movement of troops and of the instructions of Attorney General Taft to the United States Marshals. The administration at Washington, while trying to scare tho North with tho spectro of a “solid South,” has determined that the South shall not bo solid if military power can pre vent it. It will carry a “solid South” for Hayes and Wheeler if Taft’s ma chinery can do it; but at all events it is resolved to procure for them the votes of one or two Southern States by Cameron’s machinery. The cry of a “solid South” is a mockery and a falsehood, and those who make it aro using means to secure Southern votes such as none but a Radical ad ministration ever thought of using in this country. .MANAGEMENT VN. VOTES. The Presidential election, it is now apparent, is to be very closely con tested, and so nearly balanced are the chances regarded by shrewd pol iticians, that bets in the New York “pools” are reported even on the general result. Never since 1860 have Democratic prospects been con sidered so good after the October elections, l'ho cause of this equili brium is the general apprehension that there are now only about half a dozen “doubtful” States, and not only is tho estimated Electo ral vote, leaving out theso States, about equally divided, but the chances of tho two parties in the doubtful States are also considered about even. In this condition of the field on the very evo of the great con test, it is plain that superior political sagacity is likely to be more effective than a small majority of the votes. Tho energies of the two parties ure now to be concentrated. The leaders must know which States to surrender as hopeless as woB as which can most certainly bo carried by re doubled exertions. This is tho time for the display of the tactics of the managing politician. The Demo crats must decide whether they will concentrate their efforts to get their few lacking votes upon Pennsylva nia, or upon New Jersey an# the closer New England States, or upon California, Oregon and one or two of the Northwestern States. The Re publicans must determine whother they make a fight for New York and Indiana, or,abandoning these, double their efforts to carry the other States just mentioned. The party which best applies its means to its abilities in the choice of these doubtful States as fields of operation, will be the party most likely to win the great fight; and this is what wo mean by the superiority of party management to party votes. Gonpel Truth. A writer in the Freeman’s Journal, discussing the Presidential campaign, makes use of these memorable words: "In my estimation there has been no more important election in this country since 1800, the year in which Mr. Jefferson was elected to the Presidency, excepting, perhaps, that ot 1860, the results of which are familiar to us ail. Can you conceive of a more appalling calamity which oould befall this unfortunate country, at this time, than the loss of the re form party’s majority in the House of Representatives ? It would be a ratification of all the extravagance and corruption which have disgraced the past. It would bo virtually saying to the robbers v?ho have so long held the country prostrate at their feet—proceed with your work of destruction; you have au thority to assign and deliver to your friends all that remains unstolen of the public lands and other property, to tux the impoverished people to your heart's content, and to do what ever else in the premises you may see fit. I believe it would be the bell which would summon the country to prepare for general bankruptcy. Pes tilence and famine would bo welcome visitors in comparison with it. Sure ly merciful heaven will spare us such an affliction. “I say, therefore, in full view of the work which is before us, let us strain every nerve and leave no honorable means untried to bring to the ballot box the very last vote for the Tilden and Hendricks reform ticket, and let us rest satisfied with nothing less than that, for in that alone lies our safety. “That good friend of the human race, the author of that mavel of State papers—the Declaration of In dependence—among other valuabie legacies, left us this: ‘The people must make their selection between economy and liberty on the one hand, and profusion and servitude on the other.’ ” Charles Feno Hoffman, the poet, is not dead, but hopelessly insane and confined to a private asylum.

The following affidavits were made yesterday by gentlemen who were on the field and saw the commence ment and end of the fight: State op South Carolina, ) Charleston County. j Personally appeared George Rivers Walker, who being duly sworn says: I was at the Brick Church on the 16th of Ootober, 1876. I first saw the negroes firing with muskets into un armed whites, or men with pocket pistols only. I saw Abraham Smith, trial justice, colored, firing three shots at running men, who appeared unarmed. After the first volley thero was a cessation for a short while. C. C. Bowen, Republican, offered to go with any white man umongthe ne groes and pacify them. I volun teered. We wont among them; Bowen told them to “stop this.’’ There was no tiring at this time. Cyrus Gaillard ran past Bowen and myself and urged and incited the negroes to begin firing again. They did so, and began after a few shots to fire at me, though I had gone among them at the invitation of their leader, C. C. Bowen, as a) peace maker. How I escaped in safety, dodging among the trees, is more than a miracle to me. The whites being ulrnost unarmed made little or no resistance. I saw the wounded men brought in hacked so that most of them must die, with a hatchet or some blunt instrument, while left on the field. G. R. Walker. Sworn to before me this 17th Octo ber, 1876. Thomas Frost, Jr., Notary Public. State of South Carolina, ! Charleston County. ) Personally appeared J. C. Boyce, who being first duly sworn, testified as follows: I saw the first shot fired at the Brick Church, St. Thomas and St. Dennis, cn the 16th of Ootober, 1876. lam positive it was fired by the negroes. No gun was seized by the Butler Guards until the negroes with cocked muskets were advancing on the whites. J. 0. Boyce. Sworn to before me this icth of October, 1876. Geo. Rivers Walker, Notary l’ublllc. State of South Carolina, I Charleston County. ) Personally appeared before me, George Rivers Walker, a notary pub lic duly commissioned and sworn in and for the State of South Carolina, William 8. Venning, Jr., who being first duly sworn, deposes os follows: On tho 16th day of Octo ber, A. D. 1876, I was at the Briok Church, St. Thomas and St. Dennis; it was before the arrival of the Dem ocrats. C. C. Bowen had arrived in advance of them. Tho negroes had almost all arrived, and were mostly armed with muskets. I heard tho negroes say : If Delany speaks we’ll have a row and take him down. C. C. Bowen said distinctly in my hear ing: “Conceal your muskets.” They (the negroes) at once did so until the row began, when they jerked them out and began firing on the whites, who were mostly unarmed, and those who were armed only with pocket pistols. I saw tho row begin. The negroes suddenly ran for their arms and began charging the whites with muskets at full cock before a shot was fired. And I solemnly state that, it is my firm belief that they fired first. I was in a position to see the contrary had it occurred, aud I am sure the negroes fired first; but even were I wrong, no white man fired until the negroes were advancing on them with muskets presented as aforesaid. W. S. Venning. Sworn to before me, this 16th day of October, A. D. 1876. Geo. Rivers Walker, Notary Public. THE SITUATION LAST NIGHT. When the reporter left Cainhoy last night, tho white citizens who had left for Cainhoy on Monday night had returned to tho city, hav ing been relieved by a bod v or about seventy-five gentlemen from the city, who remained there all night to guard the women and children. Dr. Horlbeek remained at the village. Dr. Simmons returned to the city. Up to the hour of the departure of the steamer no negroes were seen in the neighborhood. It was supposed that they had all collected at Dan iel’s Island, some ten miles from the village, whore they were underarms. The question of taking Hayes from the ticket and substituting a more available man is fully discussed in Washington circles. Dispatches from that point state that the feeling is so strong on the subject among leading Republican managers that but for the near approach of the election it would take definite shapo. It is well under stood that the principal reason why a third-rate man like Hayes was tak en up was that he was believed to be available. He had had the good luck to be elected Governor of Ohio three times b'y dint of preponderant party strength, and it was supposed he could carry tho solid West in a Pres idential contest. This idea, coupled with tho Administration hostility to Blaine, secured Hayes’ nomination. Now it is stated that Chandler isfilled with disgust at the Western failure, and but for his well known piety it is thought he would not hesitate to call Hayes “a d—d fraud.” There is no disputing the fact that Hayes has proven to have been a very weak se lection, but unfortunately for Chand ler & Cos. it is now too late to swap horses with any degree of safety.— Knoxville Tribune.
