Fire Cast Night.
Last night, about 9 o’clock, tho alarm of

was Just below tho court-house, but it
proved to be beyond that and near the old
fair grounds. We hurried hither and
found an old house enveloped In flames.
The losa was slight, and everything In it
was saved. We did not learn the origin
of the fire. It was a small affair to create
tho commotion It did. All of tho fire com

they could roach It from any lire cistern.

MB. RANDALL AND THE SHERIFF OF
CLAY COUNTY.
Yesterday tho Sheriff of Clay county,
Ala., came to Columbus, armed with the
nocoeeary papers, and without much cere
mony, repaired to tho Eagle and Fhnnlx
Factory and took into custody ono Ran
dall, charging him with stealing a mule
from on old
BLIND MAN,
In Clay county, 1872. At tho Llmo of the
theft the man and tho mule wore ap
prehended, but Randall got tho best of the
sheriff In a tussle, and succeeded In mak
ing his oscape. Search was rnado for
him without avail, and his name was
called In vain upon tho criminal docket.
Randall came to Columbus, and after
remaining hero for awhile, succeeded in
getting employment nt tho Eagle Fac
tory os
DAY WATCHMAN,
and In that capacity was serving tho com
pany at tho time of his arrest yosterday.
Since ho has been hero, he lias deported
himself well, and no suspicion attachod to
hirn.
Tho sheriff, after arresting him, carried
him into Alabama, and rememboring his
past experience witli him, tied bin hands,
arms and foot, to make sure there would
be no further escape. He then started with
his prisonor back to Clay county, where
tho case will undergo a full judicial inves
tigation.
Radical .Meetlug.
The Radicals held a meeting in their
rendezvous last night. We could not ex
actly get at tho object of tho meeting, nor
do we yet know. A negro shoemaker
named Henry Cook was the speaker. He
monopolized tho evening with bis dis
course, and said many things. He urged
them to organize, and swore if they did
not the intelligence of the country would
control It. (Applause.] Henry was stim
ulated by this applause, and said that
they must organize and beat tho race, for
If the ‘‘Democrats git in power dey won’t
lot none of yer veto which are not able to
road and rite. Dat’s a fac, and yer will
lain It bofoah yor livo much longer. Do
yer sot on do jury ? No, yer hab not yet
sot dar, and yor won’t sot dur till yer or
ganize and mako yerselvos a power In de
land. Yer wives and yer daughters want
tor bo tried by doro peers, and ylt yer
cun’t sot on do jury. Do jury am de place
fur yer all my hearers.” [Applauso.]
This was the kind of Ignorant haranguo
Hint the deluded negro is obliged to listen
to and lie is impressed to beliovo It. Tho
Democrats of Georgia aro In power and
expect to be, yet they have tried to
abridge their voting privileges. Here In
Georgia we allow them to vote two and
three times apiece at every olectlon, and
yet somegrumblebecause foware allowed
to vote once or twioo oftener. They are
too good voters for tho Democrats to dis
franchise and as long ns they keep up
Hieir fondness for the ballot, Henry Cook
nood not fear that ho will be doniod the
privilege of voting, nor any of his peoplo.
We han’t spare tholr votes to the Demo
cratic cause. As far as tho “sottln' on do
jury” is concerned, in good time they muy
be allowed that privilege, but they must
first “orgahize” and agree not to go to
sloep while tho caso Is progressing. Un
til they dovelop this virtue they can’t ex
pect lawyers and judges to recommend
them.
Wo hope Henry will sow hio seed of dis
cord in riper ground, for while he was in
the midst of his sermon the lire bell rang,
and to a man his hoarors jumpod up and
quit tho meeting.

We have, ofton heard of the bovine spe
cies running after little boys that wore
dressed in red, but wo never saw the old
saying verified until last afternoon, nnd
then the llttlo boy was notdrossod In rod,
nor was the bovine after him in particular.
It is all the samo however, for a steer on
Randolph street did chase a youngster,
and for a while It was nock and nock, but
the youngster jumpod into the Baptist
church yard, barely escaping tho horns of
theoow. It appears from tho cow’s side
of the Btory, the boy was monopolizing
bis time by ‘’chunking’’ her until forbear
ance seemed no longer to boa virtue, and
tho cow lit out for him.

Complimentary l';.riy.
Last night, at tho Rankin House, a most
delightful party was given, complimen
tary to Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Woolfolk.
Quito a crowd of invited guests thronged
the halls of the Itankin House.and until A
late hour enjoyed tho terpslcorean pleas
ures.
The party Was a splendid success, every
thing moving in perfect harmony to the
sweet strains of tho Italian band. The
committee in charge of tho party, on the
part of tho young gentloraan of Columbus,
consisted of Mossrs. 0. H. Watt, C. T. Aber
crombie, John Woolfolk, C. B. Wilkins, F.
H. Richardson, D. C. Tleknor, Foster Wiso
and W. E. Woolfolk.
Everything passed away as happy us a

whom the party was complimentary have
already received tho congratulations of
their friends, and last night more wero
added to thoir string of hearty admirers.

that ought to exeito feelings for a few

Qov. Of, U. Chamberlain, (JuUimldtt , S. C.l
row proclamation, proHhndainento,
manifesto, ukase, fulmlnatlon, or what
ever also ft may be termed, has been duly
received and “conteuts noted.” I ara hap
py to inform you that wo have but ono
rillo club ul white men In Kdgelield county
—and that exists under and by virtue of
chartered rights granted by tho Legisla
ture and approved by tho Governor; and
if by virtuo of your authority, os com
maudci-lii-chiof of the military forces of
the State, you ordor them to disband, why
of course they will havo to ’’squander” and
around their arms; and they will, I pre
sume, reorganize without arms as a Dem
ocratic Club, and call their officers presi
dent, vise president, wardens, Ac./Ac.,
instead of their high-sounding, rebellions,
military titles.
We have thirty-odd Democratic clubs in
this county, organized, of course, to de
feat your election, and the election of your
people; and I am happy to bo tho modl
um of announcing to you, that hereafter
they propose to abandon the “Hebei yell”
which appears to schock your Imagina
tions so horribly, and I am requested by
tho clubs (Democratic clubs, I mean,) to
invoke your permission and gracious dis
pensation to allow them to indulge occa
sionally In a good, square Democratic
“Holler,” instead of tho “Rebel yell.” The
latter, you know, is performed by each
fellow “hollerin’’ on his own hook, and it
does sound a little provoking to sensitive
ears; but tho Democratic “holler” la done
by sytem, and no man is allowed to “hol
ier” out of time, which makes it smoother,
you know, and no grating.
I trust that you may geo lit to procla
mate on tills subject, and grant.'us.thls in
nocent privilege.
It gives me much pleasure to Inform
you also that the fellow whoso pistol
“clickod” at you when you wore hero on
tho 12th of August, with Judge Mackey,
■has been disbanded in obedience to your
fulmiuation, (or proclamation, I should
have said, I beg pardon,) and has boon
incontinently suppressed, and Smith A
Wesson has so modified their orignal pat
torn, as they didn’t “click” worth a cent
in the holster, but only "click” now when
they aro drawn, cocked and ready for ac
tion. This Information will, 1 know, be
gratifying to your Excellency, and save
you tho trouble of another pronuneiamon-
to.
On the 18th of this month, we are to
have a “Gander Pulling” at Edgefield
C. 11., and have succeeded in securing the
services of an aged gander named “Dan,”
who has all his life been remarakabie for
his dodging qualities, which you know, Is
a very csscntiul trait to make such an
elevating sport entertaining. And I have
been appointed Chief Marshal on the said
occasion, liyvirtuo of my position as
Chief Marshal, I am allowed to invito a
few special friends, and l avail myself of
this privilege to extend to your Excellen
cy a cordial Invitation, and to request
that your Excellency will come prepared
to participate in tho sport. Knowing
your fondness for equestrian exercises,
wo have solected a well-broken docile rad
ical horse for your use, black of color and
striped logs, ami a yellow star in his face,
to bo fully caparisoned with a Democratic
saddle and appropriate trippings.
If you should be able to oomo, please no
tify me, and I will have a mounted escort
with arms, to meet you at the station and
see you to the grounds.
Thoso Democrats are very naughty fel
lows, and have a provoking way of say
ing that their souls are their own, and of
riding to their mootings in squads of such
convenient slzo as to suit their depraved
tastes. I must do them tho justice, how
ever, to say that they ride their own
horses and traverse tho public highways
and have interfered with that “forty
acres and mule,” which you presented to
tho darkies some years ago. Of course it
would bo more proper and respectful to
your Highness that these presumptuous
undorgoings should walk to their meet
ings, and stand around witli their fingers
in their mouths, whilst your indignity is
orating and uttering nothing but the
truth so help you God.
This I say would be more proper, but
as wo havo to ride at tho “Gander Pull
ing,” they will havo to come mounted.
Besides this, “Dan” may break loose and
run, and being swift of foot for a goose, it
will require a first-class thorough-bred to
overtake him.
Very truly, your obedient
Eater of Humble Pie,

Motlrrii Point I,are
On a certain day wo visited a Belgian
gentleman and wife, In whose possession
were twp of the most remarkable pieces
of modern point lace (needle point) that I
I have ever soon. Thn first was a three
cornered point or shawl, and was made
f creamy white diamond-shaped silken
pieces Jolnod together for n ground,
upon which glowod the forms, colors, and
shades of fyoui fifty to ouo hundred field
(lowers and exotics, delicate wisterias
blue-eyed forget-me-nots, gorgeous dah
lias and roses, and many a floral gem of
namo unknown savo to the practical bot
anist or llorlst. Tho web was as delicate
as If wovon of the spider’s most attenu
ated thread, and as strong and elastic as
horse-hair. It was, In fact, needle point
in both white and colored silk. Tho
wholo piece was so filmy fine it could be
drawn through Madame Estelles wed
ding ring. I burst into a rapture of light.
"I havo found It!” I exclaimed: “I havo
found it! This is the magic web with col
ors gay woven by tho fairy Lady of
Shalot. I always suspected that won
drous web to bo lace, and now.T am sure of
It.”
“Softly,” said Mine. Esther, smiling,
“I think this is a modern point de Brux
elles, and nono but the deft fingers of Bel
gian girls could have perfected these flow
ers. The lady of Shalot was no doubt a
lace artist, and her web was doubtless col
ored passement aufuse.au, but it was not
equal to this. Beautiful, beautiful, In
deed 1 It is tiie rarest piece of work of the
kind I havo ever seen, and in my day I
have handled the ioces of imperial and
royal wardrobes. Here are flowors of a
hundred tints and forms growing into
beauty, and arranged and grouped by an
artist’s hand.”
M. Eugene—-“ The hand of D’Huygbens
himself”—gazing fondly at the marvel
lous creation, as he held it up In such a
manner as to show to the greatest advan
tage the glowing hues that wero impris
oned In its delicate meshes. “D’Huyghens
designed tho pattern and then painted
each flower, petal, leaf and tendril sepa
rately for the parchment lace worker, and
tiie fingers of no less than eighty experts
in needle point wore employed a whole
year in executing this wonderful trian
gle."
This chef d'amvre, fit for an Empress or
a Queen of American society, would have
found its place among the treasures of
some crowned head of Europe, along with
tho laco dross of as marvelous beauty, If
it had not been for the Franco-Prussian
war. In fact, both pieces were made with
the expectation of finding a purchaser for
them In the Empress Eugenie. But the
revolution in European affairs which ban
ished Napoleon 111. and Eugenie from
Paris, seriously affected tho lace indus
tries of Belgium as well ns those of
France, and the lace artists of M. Eugene’s
manufactory are to-day engaged in sell
ing oranges in the streets of Brussels or
are starving, and his beautiful laces are

The political campaign of 18tg, which
includes National, State and count/elections,
and which will undoubtedly be the most active
and hotly contested of any since the memorable
canvass of 1860, is now fairly opened. The Na
tional Democratic Party will this year make a
bold, vigorous, and doubtless successful strug
gle for the maintenance and supremacy of those
principles which are vital to the prosperity of
the Republic and essential to the well-being of
the people.
In addition to the Presidential election, the
people in Georgia and Florida will elect new
State governments. In Florida the campaign
promises to be unusually vigorous, and there is
a probability that for the first time since the war
the people of that Radical-ridden State will elect
a Democratic Btate Government. In these cam
paigns the people of the South are deeply inter
ested; and everv intelligent citizen, who has the
welfare of his country and his section at heart,
should acquaint himself with every detail of the
great work of redemption and reform that is now
going on.
To this end he should subscribe to and assist
in circulating the Navmitiali Morning; News,
an independent Democratic newspaper, of pro
nounced Opinions and fearless in their expres
sion ; a paper that is recognized everywhere as
the best diily in the South. Its editorial de
partment is vigorous, thoughtful and consistent,
while its news and local departments are marvels
of industry and completeness. Its department
of Georgia and Florida aflairs is not confined to a
mere barren summary of events transpiring in
thoso States, but is enlivened by comment at
once apt, timely, and racy.
Tho ample resources of the establishment will
be devoted to furnishing the readers of the
MORNING NEWS
with the latest intelligence 'rom all parts of the
world, through the press dispatches, special tel
egrams, and by means of special correspondence;
and through these agencies the paper will be the
earliest chronicler of every noteworthy incident
of the political campaign of 1876.
