Tbammell, J. M. DuPbke, D. M. Dußose, J. N. Dobbkv. FOR CONUHCMN, HKXRY It. MARIUS, OF MERIWETHER. Up to this time, says the Now dr leans Timet, tho efforts of the admin istration to organizo a rebellion have not been successful. An extraordinarily heavy voto has been registered in New York and Brooklyn, and it is apprehended that in those cities, as in Philadelphia, extensive frauds have been commit ted. The Brooklyn registration is about 18,000 higher than ever before. The Eufaia Timet and News have been consolidated, and tho name of the Times will bo retained. Mr. Shrop shire will have oditorial control. The cause assigned for the union is the in ability of Eufaia to support two pa pers at this this time. Wo wish the Timet, as thusstrengthed, much pros perity. And now that ‘‘Old Hhrop’s” spiteful gibes at Columbus will bnve a larger circulation, we expect to keep a sharper eye on him hereafter. We did not at first fully under stand the meaning of the dispatch re ceived by us Tuesday night, to the effect'that the Attorney General of Georgia had given no opinion, and Gov. Smith had given tho State Mil itia no instructions, In reference to Attorney General Taft’s orders to U. S. Marshals. We flud that this denial was called forth by a special dispatch from Atlanta to the New York Herald, which stated that Gov. Smith and Attorney General Ham mond had taken such action. What Then?—There are no joint rule Bof Congress regulating the counting of the Electoral votes. Un der the constitution, all tho votes re ceived must bo counted, and we sup pose this means votes cast by Electors declared by tho Governors of their respective States to be chosen. But suppose that Chamberlain, iu South Carolina, or Kellogg, in Louisiana, should falsely certify that the Repub lican Electors were chosen in those States, and not only they, but the Democratic Electors really chosen, should cast Presidential votes and forward them to Washington—what then? Would there bo no power in Congress, or in either branch of Con gress, to remedy this great outrage upon the rights of the people? We are not supposing an improbable case, as everybody familiar with Rad ical government in the South knows, and as the former conduct of Kellogg fully proves. Gen. John A. Logan, who is now so energetically shaking the “bloody shirt” and whinlngly complaining thut the Democrats will take away all the rights of the negroes If Tildcn is elected, has at different times be longed to all,th© political parties of his day, and we believe has been a Democrat, “off and on,” two or three times. Gen. John always goes to ex tremes in any party, for he never fully gets over the zeal of the young convert before he is ready to leave it for another. His course at former periods forms a rather ludicrous con trast with his Radical zeal now. The Cincinnati Enquirer says that when he was a member of the Legislature of Illinois, in 1853, he introduced a measure, known as the “black law,”, which provided that any negro or mulatto coming into the State and remaining ten days should be fined SSO, and if he did not pay the fine forthwith, he should bo sold at auc tion to any person who would pay such fine aud costs. The Atlanta Constitution rofers to indications that the Republicans are not going to mako any contest in Georgia on Presidential Electors, but will try to carry two or three Con gressional Districts. One evidence of this is the fact that Markham, Radical candidate for Congress in the Fifth District, is having tickets dis tributed with the Democratic Elec tors and his own name on them. But this may be only a trick of Mark ham’s to get Democratic votes. He may distribute tickets with the Radi cal Electors iu duo time. The Constitution concludes: “The Republicans have evidently made up their mind to throw up the Hayes and Wheeler sponge, and concen trate all their strength on the Fifth and Second Congressional Districts. 'All the military power of the govern ment in Georgia on the day of elec tion is to be used in these two dis tricts, and the great loss to the Hayes uud Wheeler ticket throughout the State is to be attributed to intimida tion. If the Republicans should hap pen to carry the next House this would be the corner-stone for a con test In Markham’s and Whitely’s dis tricts, and be the means of aiding them to set aside a good majority.” —ln consequence of the written declina tion of Hon. John L. Warren, recently elected one of the Representatives from Chatham oounty,to serve, Goy. Smith has notified the ordinary to hold an election for Representative after giving twenty days notice. ‘SOLID" OPPONINU RKCTIONM. We hear tho apprehension express ed that the Presidential vote will bo a ‘‘solid North against a solid South,” as it was in 1860. Wo do not believe this, and thero is nothing that we would deprecate more. It would be u political condition full of danger to the j>cace of the country If the two grent scotlons thus opposed were equally free and nearly equally powerful; and It would boa condi tion greatly damaging to our own section with its present weakness and inequality. But wo do not be lieve that this will bo tho result of the Presidential vote. Wo feel more confidence in New York and several other Northern States, giving CO or 70 Electoral votes in all, going forTil den, than wo do in a “solid” South for him. Two weeks ago elections were hold in two great adjoining Northern Stutcs—Ohioand Indiana. Tho most strenuous efforts to carry them were mado by both parties, and in both tho largest vote ever cast was brought out. Tho aggregate voto in tho two States amounted to one million— not falling fifty thousand short of that great number. Aud yot the division in them was so exceedingly close that fifteen hundred votes would cover tho majority in tho two combined, and one of them was carried by tho Dem crats and the other by the Republi cans. This certainly doos not look Uko a “solid” Northern voto for Hayes and Wheeler. It rather indi cates a very close division at tho North. We believe that it will bo equally close in the President ial election —in the popular voto at least. It is possible that one party, by superior manage ment, may secure nearly all tho Elec toral votes of tho North, but nothing can be surer than that tho popular voto of that section will bo so very close as to disarm of its terrors any cry which may bo raised that there was a “solid North against a solid South.” And if, as wo think almost certain, there is so great a division of tho.representation of the Northern States in Congress as to prevent any thing liko the appearauce of oppos ing sections in that body, we may still congratulate ourselves on having escaped such a condition of things as thut which happened in 18G0. THE INTERNAL REVENUE INCUBUS. Tho Internal Revenue, next to the Postal Service, is the largest of all employed by tho Government, and is tho most thoroughly organized of any branch, is better calculated, from its superior organization to bo of tho most substantial and positive aid to the Republican party to further its political ends to retain power, and is in numbers and compensation as fol lows—as per “Report of the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue” for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1875, pages.XL. und XLI., and “Finance Report” for tho same period, pages 417, 421 and 422. Two hundred and nine Collectors, whose compensation was $840,272.83. One thousand two hundred and five Deputy Collectors at a rate of com pensation ranging from SIOO to $1,500 per annum, according to the political value of each Deputy Collector’s ser vices. One thousand two hundred and thirty-three Store-keepers, whose compensation was $751,026. One thou sand and seventy-eight Guugers, whose compensation reaches, in fees and expenses, the enormous sum of $059,745.26. Thirty-two Inspectors of Snuff, Cigars and Tobacco, whoso compensation is at least $4 per day. Ton Supervisors, whose salary and expenses, such as traveling expenses, clerk hire, furniture, rent and sta tionery, amounted to tho sum of $137,752.52. Twenty-flvo Revenue agcnt3, whose salaries and traveling expenses amounted to $85,024 42, besides Sur veyors of Distilleries, appointed from time to time at the pleasure of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, at a compensation of $5 per day and expenses, the compensation and ex penses of whtfrn was, for tho above period, $15,195 53, but the number or names of which Surveyors have never appeared in the Official Register of tho United States, although that book purports to show the namesand num ber of all persons employed by the government except some mechanics and laborers In navy yards. This enormous force is now employed ns a political machine to help elect Hayes. The legitimate duties of the service could bo better performed by one tenth the number’of officers. * Alabama State Grange Fair.— Elsewhere we copy tho Montgomery Advertiser’s report, for tho first day. From tho same paper we gleam the following results of matches: Shoot ing match No. 1, for a purse of $125 to the first, SBS to the second, and SSO to the third best shot, was won in the following order: Tho first prize was devided between Messrs. H. B. Metcalf and J. D. Dillard; the sec ond prize was awarded to Mr. E. S. MeClung, of Knoxville, beating Mr. Campbell, of Tennessee, on a tie; third prize awarded to Mr. J. T. Pon der. The trotting purse of S2OO for horses that had never trotted better than three minutes, was won by E. Greers’ b. g.

Walker, Full er’s Sweet William, Shawhan’sMem brino Cloud and Fable’s Joo Wheel er The next, n running race, dash of 11 miles, was won by Bland’s Pythias, in 2:85. The quarter race, best two in three, was won by Charlie F., 0:34, 0:33 (From the New York Sun, October 17.] Brother Biaine is cheeky; but no one who looks on him as he strides across the, platform can forget the scene when he got down on his knees to Mulligan, beseeching him with streaming tears not to give up those letters; nor that other scene, when now the blustering brother from Maine stole the letters, and shot out of the apartment.

Ho mado a strong und pointed spooch on tho political situation, and the Telegraph says: “Tho impression is upon us that that uudlonce will strongly advo cate his re-election to tho United States Senate.” —Mr. J. 11. Lowe communicates to the Lumpkin Independent tho result of his planting ono acre each in oats, wheat, rye, peas, sorghum; cotton, and corn—all on the sarao kind of land, and poor land at that. His figures of cost of cultivation, yield, and prices of tho products, show that the clear profit on oats was sl3 50; on wheat, $3 50; on rye, sll 25; on peas, $0 85 ; on sorghum, $lB 20 ; on cotton, $4 15; and on corn, $2. —The mining interests of Northern Georgia are in a very flattering condition. In the Findley vein, Dahloncga, they are taking out ore which is so rich that they do not run it through tho stamp mill, but pan it out. The Advertiser says; “Another week of such rapid and successful head way by our different companies, and old Lumpkin will take tho ‘shine’ off of Cali fornia or any other gold bearing belt.” —The Macon Telegraph learns from a passenger tiiat a most deliberate attempt was made to wreck a long train of cars on the Georgia Railroad, near Sawdust, last Saturday. Some miscreant had half buried a crosstie.upon tho track, weight ing it down with stones to prevent its dis placement by the cow-catchers. Tho train ran over tho obstruction, but happily tho engine only was thrown down tho em bankment and badly broken up. Provi dentially there was no loss of life or limb, which, under tho circumstances, is almost miraculous. —Not long sinco a colored woman ob tained a position in a Southern family as cook. A few days afterwards she met an acquaintance, who inquired how she liked her new place. "I’so gwino to leab ’em,” was tho answer. “Hey ’bosses you, doos dey ?” “Drefful. Wuss den foah do’bel llon. Hoy locks up all the pervisions and asks foah de change from do market-mon ey.” “Why, dat’s no better don stealln*!’’ was the indignant answer. COST OF THE INDIANA ELECTION. Indianapolis correspondence of the Now York Herald. The struggle that ended last week in the victory of the Democratic and the defeat of the Republican party of that State was one of the most re markable ever witnessed in the West. Forty millions of people were eager and anxious spectators, and tho act ors in the combat fully realized the fact. Never was a State more thor oughly penetrated by the oratorical emissaries of both parties, moro thor oughly Hooded with political tracts and pamphlets, and more desperate ly fought for through corrupt and unlawful as well as through legiti mate means. The quantity of money expended on speakers, on tracts, pro cessions, colonizers, repeaters, etc., by both sides must have beer enormous. The cost for the pro cessions of the two parties through out the State I estimate roughlv at $2,500,000 ; 500 speakers, at SSOO each, $250,000 ; 5,000,000 documents, at five cents each, $250,000; 10,000 colonizers, repeaters, shoulder-shitters and mer cenaries generally, at SIOO each, sl,- 000,000; contingent expenses for rent, telegraphic dispatches fixed ban ners. advertisements, posters, &0., $1,000,000; total, $5,000,000. Add to this the loss to business by tire uni versal absorption of the population in politics, about fifteen million dol lars, and you have a grand total of $20,000,000 as the cost of the recent canvass in tho State of Indiana. The mental and bodily wear and tear oc casioned by the excitement of the contest, the late hours and consump tion of the stimulants, may bo esti mated as shortening the lives of tho aggregate population of voters, (430,- 000) by at. least twelve thousand 3’ears. It. was a costly campaign, and the fiercest ever fought in the We;t. The Chattanooga Iron Company is making nearly double the iron they have heretofore made, and have or ders for it as fast as they make it. They aro now making twenty tons of grey mill per day, which is bringing $15.50 per ton cash. There is a good demand for iron, and it is hoped that this demand will increase the price in market. Our iron is obtaining an enviable reputation throughout the North, and our low quotations are sending us orders and inquiries from all over the country. In St. Louis one can see a sign “Tennessee Iron Store” hanging over an imposing looking store, and ngain a coal yard sign reads, “Tennessee Coal for Blacksmithing.” Oh! we have a fu ture before us, and that a grand one. —Chattanooga Com mercial. Mount Ararat has been successful ly ascended by Mr. Bryce, of Lin coln’s lun, London. This is believed to be either the third or fourth as cent, the first having been made by Parrot in 1834, and the second by Abich in 1850. The mountain is 17,- 212 feet in height, and the last 4,000 feet had to be climbed alone, the Cossack escort refusing to go furth er. The Armenians of the neighbor hood believe the mountain to be in accessible, and insist that Noah’s ark still remains upon the summit. i PIANO AND ORGAN DEPOT. w- ♦ -iS"i i ■- Phillips, Crew & Fcryer, ATLANTA, CA.
