OF MERIWETHEII.
Col. John Foksttu, the distinguish
ed editor of the Mobilo Register, who
was compelled by mental exhaus
tion to relinquish his journalistic
duties some time Binoe, has, wo are
glad to learn, apparently recovered
and la again at work.
Thomas and Manoy, two of the In
dependent candidates for Oorernor
of Tennessee, tried to effect a com
promise by which one of them would
withdraw, last week, but the arrange
ment was not consummated. One dif
ficulty in the way was the persist
ence of Yardley, the negro Repub
lican, In running without regard to
any arrangement which they might
make. _
The grand jury of Pougherty coun
ty in their presentments say; Ow
ing to the fact that, in raanv counties
of the State It often becomes neces
sary to confine lunatics in jails, (and
at the expense of the counties,; who
should be in the asylum, but cannot
be received there on account of the
crowded condition of the Institution,
we recommend that our Senators and
Representatives in the next general
assembly use their Influence in pro
curing an appropriation for the pur
pose of completing or enlarging the
State lunatio asylum.
The colored .voters of the South
will vote against Hayes and Wheeler,
beoause they have found by long and
bitter experience tbat the represent
atives of the Republican party In
their sections are bent only upon
robbing and deceiving them, and be
cause their wages have constantly
decreased since the Republican ad
ministration took power. In the cot
ton States their remuneration de
pends upon the success of the crops,
and they know that the crops oannot
be successful as long as the condition
of those States remains disturbed by
the oppression of the Radical plun
derers. They will vote to make their
share of profit as large as possible,
and against the carpet-baggers, who
rob them under the guise of patriot
ism, whose deceptions they have dis
covered.
———• ♦< ——
Every man who believes in retrench
ment, in reform, in reconciliation and
better times, should vote for Tilden.
He has shown his skill in retrench
ment by his reduction of taxes in his
own State. He has shown his ear
nestness in reform by breaking up
the Tweed Ring and the Canal Ring,
and setting on foot an investigation
of the State Prison Ring. He
has Bhown his desire for reconcilia
tion by the fraternal spirit of all bis
utterances about the South. He has
shown what he can do towards bring
ing better times. Every farmer in
the State of New York knows that
his tax bill is just one-half this year
of what it was last year, and tho far
mer is a man with whom little facts
like that offset an ocean of partisan
abuse of Governor Tilden. ;
Tbe Republicans have found the
record of tho Democrats so im
pregnable that they have to base
their whole campaign, on stories of
what the Democrats would do If
they got into power. The best an
swer to these charges is what the
Democrats have done. It any one
calls for a bill of particulars, the
reduction of taxes one-halt In the
State of New York, and tho saving
of $55,000,000 on tho Republican esti
mates for this year will furnish it.
This is something the Democratic
party has done. The people know
what the Republican party has done
in the way of stealing, defrauding
and blackmailing, and an impartial
comparison of the two is enough to
show them that what the Democrats
will do is vastly to be prefered to
to what the Republicans havo done
and will keep on doing.
Wagoning Ctaeapest.
From the Jonesboro News of Thurs
day we tret the following:
“Wadley undertook to force the
merchants at Jonesboro to ship
cotton to Savammh by raising the
rate of freight to thirty-five oents
per hundred to Atlanta. The
merchants wouldn’t force, and en
gaged wagons to haul their cotton
direct to Atlanta. Wadley came
down to 20 cento—the old rate—and
for a few days the hauling was check
ed, but the secret got out, the farm
ers found out they could make money
by hauling, and the wagon train is
again on the road, and as long as a
two-horse wagon can make from
four to six dollars per day the haul
ing will continue.
Fifty to seventy-five wagons can
find employment at good paying
rates between Jonesboro and Atlanta,
and our merchants can pay one quar
ter of a cent more for cotton than
they could under Wadley’s rule, and
our farmers can make a good barrel
of flour clear every trip, and thus lay
in their supplies for next year. We
understand the people around Mor
row’s Station are all hauling cotton
to Atlanta.
UIiOMB VP THE WORK t
Never before have the re-organized
Democratic party gone into a Presi
dential election with such high hopes
and brilliant prospects as those
which ohger them for the oontest of
next Tuesday. Heretofore the skir
mishes of Ocuobor have had a dis
heartening effect and forced them to
meet the enemy under disadvanta
ges from wbioh they could not re
cover. In 1872, the October elections
virtually decided the Presidential
fight. The Democrats had no heart
or hope after the Ohio, Indiana and
Penneylvania State elections. But
this year the effect of those elections
has been almostas disheartening to
the Republicans. The betting pools
are the barometers that indicate
the spirits of the two parties, and
these show a constant riso of Tilden
stock and depreciation of that of
Hayes, until they have entirely
changed their relative positions of a
month ago—the odds being now
largely In favor of the Democrats.
Our people should bear in mind
that the calculations of the Democ
racy now include an almost solid
South. We hope for a majority or
near a majority of the Northern
Electoral vote, but we count on the
South for a very large majority for
Tilden and Hendricks—not only In
Electors, but in the popular vote al
so. Threatenings are made of fac
tious opposition after the election of
our nominees, and we havo every
reason to believe that preparations
havo been made to raise some plaus
ible pretext for such factious opposi
tion. Therefore it is important that
a large majority of the popular vote
should give force and authority to
the action of tho Electors. Georgia
and Alabama can both contribute
largely to that popular majority.
Our people should not be apa
thetic because they may think
that their own States are safe enough
without their votes. The vote of
every patriot in the land is wanted
for tho making up of the grand ag
gregate. Our stake In this election
is a large one; let our interest and
zeal bo commensurate. Let the ma
jority for Tilden and Hendricks in
Georgia and Alubama bo large
enough to balance Hayes’ majorities
in half of the States which he may
carry. It can be made so large, and
much may depend on making It as
large as possible. Let every Demo
crat do his duty to himself, his State,
his principles, his interests and his
party, on Tuesday next, and how
ever glorious may be the victory, he
can proudly claim a share in it; how
ever desperate may bo the factious
resistance to the decision of the peo
ple, ho will have done or left undone
nothing for which he can reproach
himself.
The New Orleans Arrests.
Wo noticed, the other day, tho fact
of the arrest of several thousand
Democratic voters of New Orleans,
for no other reason than that they
had changed their places of residence
in the city after registration. Tho
following correspondence on tbe sub
jeot needs no explanation ;
Hon. A. S. Hewitt. Chairman: Ten
thousand Democratic citizens being
arrested here. We would not mind
it if we could get the cases examined,
but tbe Deputy Marshals hold the
warrants in their pockets. The Uni
ted States Commissioner won’t try
the coses,though the parties are pres
ent and anxious to bo tried without
the Deputy Marshals’ return on the
warrants. On the day before elec
tion tbe warrants will be returned
not found, and all the names will be
erased from the registry lists. The
arrests are not made on the charge
of fraudulent registration for 1876,
but affidavits are indiscriminately
made against all white persons who
have changed their residence since
1874, and many who havo not
changed their residences in ten
years. Would you submit to it?
T. W. Patton,
President Democratic and Conserva
tive Committee of Louisiana.
To this telegram the committee
have sent the following reply:
New York, Oct. 30, 1876.—T. W.
Patton, Chairman, etc.. New Orleans,
La.: The people of the North,warned
by the Federal usurpation which for
years has deprived Louisiana of self
government, are watching with (keen
and anxious eyes the preparation
and,execution of frauds by Republi
can leaders to prolong their spolia
tion and misrule. It is clearly seen
throughout tho North that by fraud
ulent registration in New Orleans,
Kellogg and his accomplices seek to
double tho highest possible colored
vote, and to disfranchise 10,000 white
voters by political chicanery and ar
rests. lou ask us whether you shall
submit to this infamous injustice. It
is our advice that you exhaust ev
ery legal and peaceful remedy,
that you resort to no other rem
edy, and that you trust with con
fidence to tho intelligent and liberty
loving people of this Union to vindi
cate you against these wrongs.
Abram 8. Hewitt, Chairman.
Osb negro voter in Georgia has got
his "forty acres and a mule”; but no
Radicals helped him to get it. His
name is David Hopgood, and he has
always voted the Democratic ticket,.
His white Democratic neighbors in
Fayette county have given him the
mule aud land, raising the money for
the purchase by contribution.
The election of Tilden and Hend
ricks will be followed by a state of
prosperity and security that will
make independent many a poor man,
white as well as black, who has toiled
through twelve years of Radical op
pression and misrule without better
ing his condition.

(From tbs Graphic,
A noted practical joker got into a po
litical discussion in a crowd, and offered
to bet SIOO that he could name the city
in the United States of over 10,000 in
habitants in which not a single legal vote
would he cast for Tilden. The money
was placed in the hands of a bystander,
and the joker said: “If you had thought a
minute before you took me up you would
have remembered that Washington has
over 10,000 inhabitants.” Suffrage is not
extended to the residents of the District
of Columbia.

WHAT BEN HILL HAS TO SAV ABOUT THE
ERECTION IN THE LAND OF FLOWERS.
The Hon. Benj. Hill returned a day
or two since from Florida, where he
has been canvassing in the interests
of the Democratic ticket. Mr. Hill
stated to a Constitution reporter that
the election of Drew, the Democratic
candidate in that State, was abso
lutely assured, and that Tilden
would not run one whit behind. He
puts the Democratic majority at not
less than 5,000, and possibly as high
as 8,000 or 10,000.
Says he, “it is simply impossible
to beat a people so inspired as the
Floridians are. There is an enthusi
asm about them that is absolutely
irresistible. They are determined
to redeem their State, and just as
sure as the sun rises on tne 7th of
November they are going to do it,”
Mr. Hill calls attention to the fact
that the Northern settlers in Florida,
who really hold the balance of pow
er, and who have formerly been
strongly Republican, will now vote
the Democratio ticket almost with
out exception. Florida may be put
down as a certain Tilden State.—At

How Alexandrians DUcaurnite Petty
Thefts.
Mary Brown, a South Washington
alley ranger and kleptomaniac, with
skin the color her name indicates,
last week extended the field of her
operations to Alexandria, where she
was caught shop-lifting, and taken
before a magistrate, who, finding the
oharged sustained, sentenced her to
receive thiity lashes at thewhipping
post. The officer whose duty it is to
carry the sentence into effect, admin
istered twenty of the lashes and turn
ed her loose, directing her to come
back to the city on tho 10th of No
vember to receive tne remaining teu
lashes. On her way to the boat to
leave town Officer James Smith
necked her again, and accompany
ing her to this city obtained a
search warrant and recovered some
perfumery and other articles from
Mary’s domicile, in an alley in south
Washington, which she had stolen in
Alexandria. Again enjoining upon
her to return on the 10th for the re
maining ten lashes, he left her; but
Mary has no intention of obeying the
admonition. It is a regular practice
of the Alexandria authorities, and
that community is troubled with a
loss number of thieves of the petty
class than any city in the country;
the , 'whipping-post > ’ there is nothing
more than the prison doors of the
cells, to which the culprits are tied,
making them form what the officers
jocularly call “spread eagles,” and
receive a portion of the stripes named
in their sentences, when they are
turned out with orders to return on a
fixed day for tho balance. No one
has ever been known to return to the
city.— Washington Star.
How They Manage In China.
We learn that one of the manda
rins here, who had swindled the Gov.
ernment of a large sum of money
when making purchases of warlike
materials at Hong Kong during the
Formosan affair, was brought up for
trial before the redoubtable Ting and
the Fautai. On the 4th of August
this degraded official was subjected,
as an introduction to something se
vere in store for him, to a flogging of
100 blows on the palms of his hands.
He was to have been bambooed in
the usual way as other criminals on
the breech, but for his bitter crying
and vehement entreaties, coupled
with the fact of his not being in very
good health. The defaulting official
is surnamed Man, and is related to a
Taoutai of that name who was degra

roy Ying Han in the Walsing affair.

A CHBEBINO REPORT FROM THE SUCKER
STATE.
Springfield, HI., Special to tho St. Louie Bepuhlt
can.]
While the headquarters gt the
Democratic, Republican and Inde
liendeot State Central Committees
are Id Chicago, this oity continues to
be, as heretofore, the focus of politi
cal Information. The State Register,
the Democratic organ, to-day de
clared that the State is in possession
of the Democrats and Independents.
Reports from reliable men have been
received of tho political feeling in
every county, and these havo been
carefully compared by experienced
and sagacious politicians. The result,
after making every possible allow
ance for losses, and for not getting
out the vote, indicates tbat Lew
Stewart will be elected by a majori
ty certainly not less than that by
which Hon. J. D. Williams carried
Indiana. This indication is confirm
ed by the depression exhibited by
Republican politicians here, and by
the fact that the very best speakers
of the Republican party are now can
vassing this State, and will continue
here until after the election.
Beside tho regular Democratic-In
dependent State ticket, which is to
say the ticket made up of the candi
dates nominated by both the Inde
pendent and Democratic State Con
ventions, there are the following can
didates in the field who were nomi
nated by the Independents, but Dot
by the Democrats: J. H. Pickrell
for Lieutenant-Governor, W. S. Coy
for Attorney-General, H. T. Aspern
for State Treasurer and H. M. Hooten
for .Secretary of State. The effort
dow is to consolidate the entire In
dependent and Democratic strength
by such changes, substitutions and
withdrawals as are agreed upon as
most expedient. To effect this pur
pose correspondence has been in pro
gress for some days, and an informal
conferene was held here to-day. Up
to to-night the consolidation has not
been agreed upon, but there seems to
be no doubt it will be effected, and
that, with a solid ticket in the field,
the entire anti-Republican vote or
the State will be solid in its support.
