THE DAILY TIMES. JOIN H. HAITI*, . - - Bolter. Coluinbu*. On., SUNDAY OCTOBER 39, 1876. LARGEST CIRCULATION ■ a ike c.u.tlr. AAlseent o nd at C'oluabui. TOR rUKMIDEKT, SAMUEL J. TILDES, of New York. FOR VICE-FBEMIDUNT, THOMAS A. HENDRICKS, of Indiana. FOR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS: A. R. Lawton, W, O. Tdoole, Jno. W. Wofford, F. D. Dismuke, A. M. Rooers, Frank Chambers, R. E. Kknox, L. N. Trammell, J. M. DuPbee, D. M. Doßose, J. N. Dorsey. FOU CONCiIEM), HENRY K. 11.4 RUIN, OF MERIWETHER. A Boston correspondent to the New York Wovld says that Charles Fran cis Adams, the Democratic nominee, will almost certainly bo elected Gov ernor of Massachusetts, though he concedes that the Republicans will probably elect the balance of the State ticket, but by a mujority not more than that of last year. Hon. Wabren Akin, la a lotter to the Atlanta Constitution, expresses tho fear that tho Democratic majority in Georgia has become too large for control by party discipline. He thinks ho sees signs of an effort to disrupt Its organization, and is of opinion that a smaller majority would be safer. Wo think that what the Democratic party of Georgia needs is a diminution of the number of its offlce-seekerß rather than of its voters. Alabama State Gkanue Faib.— The attendance was again large on Fri day, 4th day. C. C. Skillman took the first pre mium, and W. D. McCurdy the sec ond, for single harness horses. For the best combination of saddle and harness,Harry Hunter’s horse took the premium. There were eighteen entries for the shooting match, and W. E. Delong, of Chattanooga, vras the winner. In tin trot to harness for horses that nevertrotted bettor than 2:40 $125 to first, SSO to the second, and $25 to third—Geer’s Little Sister*was the winner, taking the last three of six heats; Robinson’s Fannie,second, and Fuller’s Sweet William third. Time, 2:54, 3:52, 3:00, 2:56, 2:55,3:00. McCurdy’s entry won the mule race, half mile, in 1:24. The running race, two-mile heats, for Alabama raised horses, $125 to the first, SSO to the second, and $25 to the third, was won by Bland's Pythias; Shenandoah and Iredell distanced. Time, 4:48. , Tilton and Beecher are now fighting it out on a different theme from that which lately engaged their attention. They are lecturing on tho same subject, but with widely differ ent views. Their subject is the "Min istry of Wealth." Tilton exposes tho baneful Influence of money upon the ministry, while Beechor main tains that the pursuit of wealth is ennobling, and that the tendency of its acquisition is towards morality. They lectured last week in Chicker ing Hall, New York—Mr. Tilton on Monday, and Mr. Beecher on Tues day evening. The World says: "Mr. Tilton had u house crowded from parquotte to gallery; Mr. Beecher barely full. Mr. Tilton’s audience listened In silence; Mr. Beecher’s in terrupted him with much applause. Mr. Tilton stood behind a table on which lay his manuscripts and read therefrom with an oratorical method that made thetritest truths seem like new utterances; Mr. Beecher stood without table or manuscript, and— talked. Mr. Tilton shook back his locks seemingly In defiance of any differing opinion in the highest gal lery: Mr. Beecher, with thumbs in pockets, mildly argued with the oc cupants of the front seats.” CONDENSED GEORGIA NEWS. —About two thousand mounted Demo crats of Florida met Hon. B. H. Hill at the Chattahoochee river, andoscorted him to Marianna. —An employee, named Porker, at the Ice houso in Atlanta, was nearly suffo cated to death by the explosion of the main pipe leading into the retort and the escape of ammonia, on Thursday. —Another meeting, In Coweta county has undertaken to.lnstruct Its members of the Legislature on the Senatorial ques tion. The ’.first meeting instructed for HHI, the last for Norwood. —ln Jthe case of E. W. Hokcr vs. The canal Company, which had engaged Su perior Court at Augusta two or three days, the jury on Thursday returned a verdict foriplaiuUff of $3,037.50. —The.Sanderevllle Georgian says Mr. Joel ,Boring realized from twenty-seven acres of oats this year an average yield of M bushels to tho acre, and on two lots of six acres each the averago yield of corn waa72}{ and 49 V t bushels respect ively. —Bainbridge Democrat: There Is a ne gro in this county who claims he has been dead and has come to life again. He says he was dead three days, was burled, and went both to Heaven and the lower regions. We heard him telling some negroes the other day that, while In Heaven, “Christ told him he (Christ) was a Radical, and that }he must tell all the colored people to vote that ticket" —The Talbotton Standard says the year 1839 is remembered by old people as a re marxably dry year. Capt damage, of Talbotton, told a crowd of gentlemen the other day,>hen!speaklug of the weather, that during that year he played marbles In the bed of the Chattahoochee river. He said that there was a small stream run ning near the opposite bank from where he lived, and that be and his young friends went over there every day and dammed it up with sand. He kept up this for three weeks. • : > w :. sdi ’kA A MUH UELEDATION. The Democrats of Georgia, says the Macon Telegraph, won the entire Congressional delegation in the For ty-fourth Congress. What has been done onoe can be done twice. We oall upon them to repeat tho perform ance on the 7th of November. It may cost some extra exertion this time, but the game is well worth that and much more. Whatever else is won, let that stake be secured. It may de cide the complexion of the next House, and thus savo us from total ruin. We will whip Hayes out of his boots in Georgia, but that victory will bo worthless if we lose the House. Let the people resolve that such a result shall not bo registered. The Radicals are wide awake, quick and devilish. They will make the fight of a hound in a fence corner, and stop at nothing to get one or two of their men. The game is ours by long odds, it wo play for it in dead earnest. Let every man feel that the result is in his hands, and tho thing is done. We claim nine memers for Georgia In the Forty-fifth Congress, and the claim can and must bo made good. Down in the Second District, es pecially, our friends must bo wide awake. They can lay out Whitely cold os a wedge, and get rid of him for good, if they will just make up their miuds to do it. Colquitt’s ma jority in that district blazed a path for them. What was done for him ought to be and can bo done for Smith. If our friends will whip Whitley this tlmo, they will get rid of him for good und all. Another defeat and he is gono up. He will lose his grip on the negroes and when they go back on him his career is end ed. Asa proof of the necessity for extra exertion in this fight, read the following from tho Dawson Journal: We learn that Republican clubs are being organized all over the Second Congressional district, and that the party is stronger to-day than it has evor been. The negroes in this place hold their secret meetings at tho colored Methodist Church, and they are using every effort to induce the colored Democrats to join. They will make a bold fight on the 7th day of November for R. H. White ley. The Republicans know that if they aro defeated at the next elec tion their party will be dead forever. The negroes have a large club at this place, and they are pledging them selves to devote the 7th day of November to the interest of their party. The negro women are also joining clubs, and are working faith fully and diligently for their brother Richard. An honest old colored man informs us that Tom Crayton, pastor of th 9 colored Methodist church at Dawson, advised the female members to go to the polls on that day and see to it that no colored man votes tho Democratic ticket. "The Lent Rattle of the War.” We publish a communication from Knoxville, Tonn., taking issue with our correspondent “B” in regard to some statements in his late letter concerning the gallant closing fight at West Point. Our Kuoxvillo cor respondent is right in his supposi tion that the quoted portions of “B” ’s letter were copied from some other writer. He enclosed us tiie printed slip, quoted, but did not name the authority, and we could not supply it. We see now, however, that the LaGrange Reporter says that this part of “B.” ’8 communication was from Capt. Little’s Centennial ad dress, published in the Reporter. We are satisfied that the neglect to give credit was unintentional on the part of our West Point correspondent, as ho is generally in the habit of giving credit, and in this instance his quo tation marks showed that he wanted to be understood as copying. So much on the score of credit. While we appreciate the gallantry of the defence made by the little band of Confederates at West Point, on tho ICth of April, 1865, we are not prepared to admit the correctness of the claim of the several writers above mentioned, that it was the last battle of the war. On the same day, and at a later hour in the day, the fight in defence of Columbus was made on the opposite side of the river. It was made by a few hundred undisciplined and poorly armed troops, collected together on that day fo* the first time, against Oen. Wilson’s large and splendidly equipped army. Our fight, like that at West Point, was unsuc cessful, but our weak force cheeked the enemy for about eight hours, and until he was euabled to mass and advance his troops in the darkness of the night, and even then he first suc ceeded by a stratagem in cutting the Confederate line of communication and deranging tho plan of defence. Gen. Wilson, in his report, admitted a loss of twenty-five killed and wounded in this fight. The Confed erate loss in killed was six well known officers and citizens, besides two strangers reported to have been killed. We refer to this engagement, not at all in disparagement of the gallant fight at West Point, nor even to institute any comparison between them, but only to "vindicate the truth of history" when the claim is made that the West Point fight was tho last one between the Unionists and Confederates. Sympathy for South Carolina.—A Washington special says: “It is sug gested by leading Democrats here that the Chairman of the National Democratic Committee institute without delay preparations for mass meetings in all the principal cities of the United States to take action on the South Carolina outrage. It is thought that the moral effect of the people, in their sovereign capacity, protesting against the horrible pro ceedings now going on In South Car olina will bo much heightened it the meetings should all be held on the same night. It is to be hoped the matter will receive the attention of the committee without delay. THK ENSACEHBNT AT ET POINT. Knoxville, Tenn., Oct. 27,1876. Editor of the Times: In your issue of the 26th, I notice a communication from a correspondent at West Point, in which are embodied several state ments entirely foreign to tho facts in tho case. I notice, however, that what purports to be historical is en closed in quotations; but if your cor respondent bad taken the trouble to inquire of any citizen of West Point who resided there at tho time of the engagement in question, he could have obtained correct information, as soveral participated in tho light, some of whom were then mere boys —among whom I remember young Lanier and Camp, who fought with the courage of veterans and were taken prisoners. W. J. Blatter, at the tlmo editor of a daily paper at West Point, Is another gentleman who participated in tho battle, and was afterwards paroled at Macon as a member of my battery, to avoid any possibility of bolng treated as a guerrilla. Mr. Blatter is now pub lishing a paper at Winchester, in this State, and will verify the fact. ThS correspondent truly says: “It was reserved for that point to bo the last grand theatre of our revolution. Tho last fight of that revolution was fought upon her neights; the last blood that was shed, and the lust hero that fell, was upon her sacred soil.” But what I take exceptions to is his utterly ignoring the command which formed tho nucleus around which tho men of other commands rallied. He says: “A portion of Ma- jor Allen’s Battery,’! &c. Now, in fact, Major Allen was not present at the time, in the first place; field offi cers do not, as a usual thing, com mand companies in the second place; and in the third place, there was no such command In the whole Army of Tennessee. Copt. Waties’ battery of Light Ar tillery, from Columbia, S. C., com manded by Lieut. R. B. Waddell,was there and had charge of and fought the guns in Fort Tyler, which con sisted of two 10-pounder Parrott rifled guns belonging to the battery, and a 32-pounder siege piece, which was mounted so as to command the railroad and county bridges over the Chattahoochee. The artillerymen, except three detachments, which manned tho guns, took rifles, as did tho other defenders of tho fort. In addition there were about thirty men from the Point Coupee (La.) bat tery. The remainder of the garrison were composed of soldiers going home or returning to their com mands, who were stopped in transit by order of Gen. Tyler, convalscents from the hospital and citizens of West Point. Major Camp, proprie tor of the railroad hotel, had his eyes shot out, and his son, who was with him during the fight, was per mitted by the humanity of the Fed eral commander, Col. La Grange, to remain and nurse his father. Instead of being retained as a prisoner of war. That memorable ICth of April, 1865, will never be forgotten b 7 the sol diers who were at Fort Tyler. The quiet of the Sabbath was disturbed by the tramp of charging squadrons, tho roar of artillery and the rattle of small arms, while terrified women prayed vainly for success to crown the usoless valor of their sons and the grey-clad men from other States. Three charges r tepulsed, but tho ammunition of the garrison be gan to fall and tho enemy took ad vantage of the slackened lire and gained the ditch—ham grenades were thrown over the breastworks, but their foe were too numerous to be dislodged. One of the parrot guns was disabled, at the other every oau nonnier was wounded, the carriage of the 32 pounder was damaged by tho shell of the enemy’s pieces, the flag was riddled with ball and bul let, the lauyards even being cut, so close and accurate was the fire of the Feder&ls, but the slender cord that supported the white and crimson bunting of Tyler’s battle-flag, in its recoil wrapped with serpent-like tenacity around the tall staff, so that it could not be lowered, and at a quarter past six, the gallant Col. Fannin, seeing that further resistance was hopeless, one-third of the little garrison being wounded and the am munition exhausted, reluctantly or dered a surrender. A subaltern tied a white handkerchief on a ramrod, the order “cease firing” was given; the Federals poured over the breast works with deafening cheers, and tho “last ditch” was won. 001. Kannin fought with despera tion, but he was nof summoned to surrender, unless it was by his own officers, and it was not until after his surrondet that tho Federals entered and cut down the flagstaff. I write this in order that credit may be given tho men who participated in this engagement. The first cannon shot was fired from a South Carolina gun in 18G1, and the last by a soldier from that State at West Point, in 1865. “Palmetto.” N. H. Babcock, late an examiner in the Patent Office at Washington, has published a card stating that he was required last spring either to vote the Republican ticket in Connecticut, or to pay money instead; that he de clined to do either, and was dis charged. He publishes tho letters which passed between the chief Clerk and himself ("the former writing at the bidding of Zach Chandler,) show ing that he was required to “vote or to pay for political purposes,” and that his reply was, “I won’t vote or pay for political purposes, because my duty as an officer of this Depart partment does not require such ac tion.” And old Zach gave him his walking papers, not “with .regret” as Grant parted from Babcock and Belknap, but with promptness and vindictive satisfaction. —Stewart Court will hold the better part of tills week.
