To be so generously remembered, nerves every arm to renewed exertions, and serves as a stimulus to greater endeavor. If our paper Is particularly Interesting this morning, ascribe it to a feast of lux uries, and help us bless the donor. Car Detacher. Tho Alexandria Gazette says: Major E. B. Hlll.of Culpepper county, has perfected an invention for detaching cars, when, by an accident, a portion of the train has left the track, and exhibited it yesterday at the office of tho Virginia Midland Railroad Company, in tho presence of tho several railroad men, who expressed their entire satisfaction with its working. The Major has gone to Washington with his models, and will apply for a patent. An Oversight. In our description anil account of the grand torchlight procession the other night, we inadvertently failed to mention the banner of D. E. Williams, coal mer chant. It was well gotten up with appro priate mottoes. Wo failed also to note the illumination of the splendid dry goods house of L. Banner, on Broad street. Mr. Banner was in full accord with tho pro cession. and In honor of tho party, hand somely illuminated his store. Fever In Savannah. The A'cim says tho mortuary report for the twenty-four hours ending at six o'clock p. m. yesterday shows o total of interments of fourteen, of which seven were from yellow fever cases. The weather oontiuues warm, with southwes terly winds prevailing until yesterday afternoon, when the wind shifted to the west, veering round northwardly. At the present writing (11 o’clock) there is a per ceptible change of some degrees in tho at mosphere. Burglars Abroad. The store of Mr. W. R. Moore, eoruer Broad and Thomas streets, was entered Monday night and robbed of about SSO worth of goods, chiefly whiskey and tobacco, and some few dollars in change from the drawer. They made their en trance by baring off the hinges of a rear window. A negro woman, living near the store, says she heard them in it, and went up aud down Broad street looking for a policeman, but couldn’t And one any where. We know that the police can’t bo all over town at the same time, therefore would suggest that one be stationed at some given point, say between the inter sections of Broad and St. Clair, and Broad and Randolph streets, who when called on could blow for the others. Then citizens would always know right where to And a policeman when wanted. Mr. Moore, we believe has found no clue to the thieves. DEMOCRATIC VICTORY. HURRAH FOR MUSCOGEE, TILDEN, HENDRICKS AND HARRIS. Eightrrn Dundred Majority In Huro gee. election news—what was done—no disorder of ant consequence. The night boforo the election the clouds were lowering and the sky dark. The many hundreds of men who left the torch light procession and turned Into their beds at a late hour Monday night, expect ed to be awaked yesterday morning by the steady rainfall upon tho roofs. But the cause of good government and reform was not to be heralded by doubtful skies. The morning broke with clear skies, omi nous, wo pray, of a complete and ringing victory for the Democratic party. The polls in Columbus were opened at 7 o’clock. The managers were all present, and already congregated were several hundred of the lately enfranchised, ready and waiting for an opportunity to use their franchise. Ihe polls were crowded for sevoral hours, both negro and white voters striving to cast their ballots. The negroes presented an unbroken column for Hayes and Plunder, while the whites were equally determined for Tilden and Reform. The election progressed quietly, and though there was a good deal of work at the polls by the whites, nothing was done or said to mar a glorious Democratic victory. disorder. There was a little disorder off from the polls. Two or three white men and as many negroes got into a dispute, which resulted In a knock down argument, the negro llrst striking the ground. Tho po lice Interfered and soon arrested the ring leaders of the row. A negro resisted ar rest, but the officers secured him and started for the jail. Of course the crowd had gathered, and a hundred or more ne groes followed, swearing they would res cuo the prisoner. They followed the po lice some little distance, when a negro fol lowing the crowd got into a dispute with a whlte.man. The white man, In endeav oring to draw his pistol lired It, doing no damage. There was some excitemeut for a little while, but it soon quieted down. During all this time the election proceed ed without any Interruption. Late in the evening tho negroes turned to the Demo cratic jstandaid, and a lively voto took place until the closing of the polls, at six o’clock. Some of tho boys hired tho Italian band and put them on tho court-house wall to play. They played all day to a delighted crowd of country negroes. Wo suppose they had the following couplet in mind when they hired them; “Music ban cb.rm, to aootbe the savage. Split a rock, or wilt . cabbage." OUR VOTE. Below we give tho voto of Columbus and the precincts as far as we could learn. Muscogee has gone Democratic by at least eighteen hundred majority: COLUMBUS. Tilden 1.5951 Harris 1,552 Hayes 269 I Hilliard 284 Blanks 8. JONES’ CROSSING. Tilden 671 Harris 64 Hayes 50 | Hilliard 50 The total voto cast at Columbus was 1,873 votes. Of this number the Demo crats received 1,595. Mr, Harris, for Con gress, foil behind tho Tilden ticket 43 votos and Mr. Hilliard, ills opponent, ran aheud of tho Radical ticket 15 votes. Thero wore eight blanks voted. The Democratic majority In Columbus is 1,325 votes. At Nance’s precinct, we learn, the Radi cals carried it by 75 votes. Many negroes from Columbus voted at Nanco’s after first voting in Columbus. MORE (INTIMIDATION. • RudicaU’Puraulnr Democratic Ketron. Our readers have noticed the exertions of John Wells, colored, In the Interest of the Democratic party ever since the war. He walks straight to the polls at every election and casts his vote with the whites- Jim Saunders, a colored express drlvor, has also alllgned himself with the Demo cratic party, and on Saturday decorated his horse with a Tilden flag. The Indignant portion of the negro Radicals met these two men last eight at Springer’s oorner, and attempted to mob them. John Wells was saved by a hasty retreat through the rear of Springer’s store, while Jim owes his safety to the firmness of Capt. Moore, Chief of Police, who soon dispersed the crowd with his force, without having to resort to harsh measures. The negroes were armed, while others of them had secured huge rocks. This kind of Intimidation should be stopped, and the Democrats will see to it that It does not exist hereafter. A negro named Henry Cook was on an Intimidat ing tour, taking the names of negroes who voted the Democratic ticket, and noting In a little book. Wo will stop all of that now that Tilden Is elected. Men shall vote as they please. Waylaid and the Wrong Man nit. Night before last, Mr. J. 11. Frampton was badly hurt under tho following cir cumstances : Mr. Frampton was up town as a specta tor at the Democratic Torchlight Proces sion, and while the speaking was going on, left for home down town. With him was his little child that ho carried in his arms. He passed through the Court House yard, and just as he passed through the Court House gate near Mr. Scheussler's, some unknown parties as saulted him with bludgeons. Mr. Frampton was almost stunned by the blow, but was enabled to make hot hasto from the spot. Mr. Frampton is one of the most order ly, quiet and unobtrusive gentlemen in the city, and surely the rutflons that as sailed him, made a mistake. They must have been lying in wait for someone olse, and mistook Mr. Frampton, in as much they did not follow him, or attempt any further injury after knocking him down. He has now what the boys call “a b-a-d eye." Yesterday the business in the city was almost entirely suspended, owing to the election. By a previous agreement with tho merchants all stores were closed. Wo noticed only two regularly open. On Broad street everything was dull, and looked more like Sunday than one of the business days. Merchants and clerks were all at the polls. Notice. 1 have on consignment, Seed Rye, Oats, Cabbage, Apples, Onions, Cheese, Butter, Eggs, Turkeys, Chickens, Ac. All goods delivered free. D.

THE FATAL MIIOT. SAD DEATH OF AN ATLANTA YOUNG MAN— MB. GEORGE CLARE SHOOTS AND KILLS MB. FLETCHER TOLBERT. This evening we are forced to chronicle one of those sad homicides that arise from Intoxication and tho unnecessary carry ing of lire arms. From what wo can learn, Mr. George Clark was escorting a young lady the other afternoon, and in passing the Markham House Mr. Clark thought he heard some young gentleman make an Insulting remark about him. Mr. Clark was informed that the young gentleman who made tho remark was a Mr. Connolly. Several parties say that Mr. Clark avowed his intentlen of shooting him. Last night, In passing near the City Hall, ho met Mr. Tolbert in company with another gentle man, somo words passed about a young lady, when Clark drew his pistol and flrod, klllllng Mr. Tolbert almost instantly. The other gentleman ran, and wo learn Mr. Clark ilred at him whllo ho was making his escape. The occurrence is deeply regreted by all our citizens. Mr. Tolbert is the youngest member of the firm of Tolbert & Bro’s., grocers, on Washington street, near the City Hall. * Mr. Clark Is a son of Judgo R. H. Clark of this city. Mr. Clark will probably be Indicted be fore tho grand jury, which is now In ses sion. Itiis said that Mr. Clark was drink ing at tho time, and no doubt he had no Intention of killing Mr. Tolbert, and it is difficult to account for this strange con duct on any other hypothesis than men tal abstraction from excessive drink— Ooml., 6th Inst. The unfortunate young man above al luded to, is the youngest brother of JolT and Mark Tolbert, who recently moved from hero to Atlanta. We regret to hear of this occurrence, Fletcher Tolbert was about sixteen years of age. At one time he was carrier for the sun and times. Nlicritr and Legal Sales. Yesterday being the first Tuesday in the month, the legal sales for the month took place. O. S. HARRISON, sold for the sheriff, a lot of whiskey, etc., as the property of Jackson & Pratt.

The place Is known as the Motloy place, and situa ted about thirteen miles from the city. The city lot on Forsyth streot known as the Ellen Thomas lot, brought $1,500, E. Christian being the purchaser. The city sales wero small. The lots lev ied upon for taxes woro bought in by the city for the amount of tax duo on each lot. Mr. Harrison sold a horse for forty, and a colt for sixty dollars. acee & YONOE held their sale at the court-house. They sold for the Commissioners the Heard property, situated on the Southwestern Railroad, ten miles from the city. The place brought forty two hundred dollars, Mr. Garrett and Mr. Heard, of Mississip pi, being the purchasers. It was sold for a division. Lem Brltlan Shot. Last night a young man named Lem Britlan was shot In tho left arm. We are glad to record thatjho was not killed, al though the shot was llred sufficiently close to burn a hole In his clothing. Wo were unable to gather any particu lars. Britian says he was walkin gup the street with Jno. Jackson and George Sheridan; that some talk was made about shooting somebody, and the first thing lie knew he was shot. He thinks John Jack son shot him. All were friends and it is not improbable that the shooting was aci dental. Mr. Britlan lives in Alabama, about a mile from the bridge. He works in the Eagle A Phenix factory. Dr. Mason dressed his wounds. Mr. Jackson, the supposed man who did tile shooting, is a blacksmith by profes sion and works in Womacksville. He has been arrested.

Washington, Nov. 8. -3 a. m.— They are serenading Mr. Geo. W. Adams, correspondent of the World. New York, Nov. B.— The World of this morning has tho following leader: “Peace on earth, to men good will” is the glorious message of this glorious dey. The magnificent victory which we announce has beeu won by a great, united and deter mined political party; but it hus been won by a party for tho salva tion of a people. It brings to the defeated tho same bless ing which it insures to the victors. It is the triumph of union over disunioa, of order and of the law over the spirits of disorder and anarchy, of statesmanship and pat riotism und partisan insolence and sectional hate. There is not an honest man in the United States, of whatever creed, of whatever color, of whatever political ofliliations, who has not cause this day—whether he knows it or not-to thank God for tho work which was yesterday done. In all our past history; no sublimer spectacle ha3 been presen ted to the world than this. When the armies of the Republic, flushed with victory, melted quietly back into the great body of the people at tho close of the civil war, the political philosophers of all nations stood astonished at the scene. How much grander is the sight which we witness to-day, of a gigantic political revolution, planned, begun and car ried out without the firing of a single shot in anger, by tho simple exertion of the popular will working through the legitimate forms and the tradi tional spirit of our free institutions. To the active men of both political parties it doubtless seems a and natural thing enough. To for eign observers, and to those who come after us, it will assume its true proportions, and it will stand in his tory as the noblest imaginable vindi cation of the wisdom and the faith of those great men who founded our nationality on the principles regard ed in their time as wild and utopian, and even in our days dishonored but too often by the distrust and the con tempt of Americans uuworthy their great heritage of freedom. FOLK O'CLOCK A. M. SOUTH CAROLINA. Charleston, Nov. 8—2:15 a. m.— Returns up to this hour give Hamp ton 7,000 majority.

Cardinul Giacomo Antonelli, whoso death is announced, was born at Sononio, Italy, April 2, 180*1. He was educated for the Church, and at an early age displayed marked ability. After.entering into orders, he filled in succession several civil orders. In 1845 he was appointed Minister of Finance. He also held several other Important posts under the lato Pope Gregory V. In 1847 he wus raised to the dignity of Cardinal Deacon by Pope Pius IX, under the title of St. Gatha. In 1848 he was Prime Minister, and after the assas sination of Kassi, counselled the flight of the Holy Father to Saela, where he negotiated his return un der French protection on April 12, 1850. In 1855 an attempt was made to assassinate him. In 1867 he was made Curator ad interim of the University of Rome. In 1868 he succeeded Cardinal Ugalino as Dean of the Cardinals. He pro tested against the withdrawal of the French in 1870 against Victor Emanuel’s success, and against every progressive measure. Tho Ecumen ical Council was planned and carried out by him, and, he has been held responsible for the enunciation of of the dogma of Papal infallibility. At the time of his death he was Sec retary of State to the Pope, President of the Council of Ministers, and Pro of the Sacred Apostolio Palatos. He was virtually a Prime Minister to the Pope, controlling all formal and offi cial transactions, and influencing all matters to diplomatic endorsers of the Papal Court. With tho rest of the world he was one of the most gifted statesmen of Europe. New York, Nov. 7.—A Rome special says the Pope wasgreat'y affected by the suddenness of Cardinal Anto nelli’s prostration. The latter was by direction of the Pope carried to an adjoining apartment. The Pope sent for his own pnysicians, but upon the arrival of the doctors, all hope was declared gone. Sacred rites were then partaken of by the dying Cardi nal, and the Pope retired for a short time to another part of the palace. His Holiness, however, again visited the sufferer before going to his bed, and remained by his side for some time, administering comfort and con solation, and upon leaving, as the hour was late and His Holiness al most ill himself, he gave the dying man tho benediction in articulo mor tis. A Rome dispatch to the Times says Antonelli was transacting business with the Pope Sunday, when he was seized with gout and carried to his apartment. He refused to believe death was approaching, but received the sacrement. He expired at 7:15 o’clock Monday morning, shortly af ter sending a message to the Pope asking for his blessing and implor ing pardon for all the faults he might have committed during his adminis tration. The fortune left by the Car dinal will be divided among the mem be reof his family. His fine collec tions of gems, antiquities, works of art, etc., are bequeathed to the Vati can Museum.
