THE DAILY TIMES. JOHN H. MARTI*, - - - EUr. Columbus, SATURDAY. ■ Djty KR A LARGEST CISCOLATION • a *!>•* catlr< •<* Tritdln* *l, InlwalH. We are indebted to Col. Chambers, Senator, and Mr. Glenn, Represents tfite, of Russell county, and to some other unknown friend, for copies ol interesting public doouments of the State of Alabama. They have our thanks for their attentions. The Supreme Court of RUodw In land having adjudged George H. Cor lias, one of the Hayes Elector* in that State, ineligible because of his holding a Federal office, tho Legisla ture wa* to have met yesterday to 1111 the “vacancy/’ It was reported at Columbus, Ohio, on Monday, that Senator Sherman had telegraphed from New Orleans to Gov. Hayes, advising him to with draw from the contest. This is per haps putting it rather strong, but i( is certain that Mr. Sherman Ims ex pressed his dissatisfaction and dis gust at the action of the returning board. Some Democratic Congressmen had arrived in Washington on Wednesday. A dispatch of that day says: “Tho Democratic!members now in tho city say the House will appoint a committee to visit tho dis turbed States on Monday next, and that by Thursday of next week the Congressional Committee will bo at work in Now Orleans, Columbia, 8. (t., and Tallahassee, Fin.'' We noticed, the other day, "1* report that two of tho Republican Electors of South Carolina had declared that they would not accept certificates from Gov. Chamberlain. A special of the 29th tilt., to the New York Post (Republican pa per) confirms tills. It says: "There is no doubt as to the truth of the report that two electors In Bonth Carolina have sig nified their intention of not accepting certificates from Chamberiain. This creates something like consternation in Republican quarters, *nd ia regarded as indicative of trouble/ Tlie Post’ a Washington dispatch of the same date also says: "Fears arc enter tained by members of the National Com mittee that some Republican elector may be bribed to vote for Grant instead of Hayes, and thus throw the election in the House. This is nssnming that Louisiana and Florida are both Republican.'" Kudina Klmor* Voting for Till!rn. j Editors Times .'—ln consequence of the great, frauds perpetrated by some of tho most prominent Republicans and their perversion and misapplica tion of the powers entrusted to them, should not every Republican Elector who loves truth and justice "see to it” that the American people be heard ? and If any of them who oppose their party be oounted in in the manner as above stated, shall they hesitate to use the power in their possession which, if rightly applied, is a radical cure for the malady, aud a democrat ic* 1 remedy and disapproval of the calumnies perpetrated on this grand commonwealth ? Will the Radical Electors be blind and fall to do their duty? “ Irate Judge and an Indignant Jury. In the Circuit Court, at Lynchburg, V., on Weduesday, Judge WiugtioUl, presi ding, the Jury in the ease of Thomus against Ciemeus, for false imprisonment., rendered a verdict for the defendant, whereupon Judge Wingfield addressed the jury as follows: ’’lt Is one of the most unaccountable verdicts I ever saw. It is a blot on the jury trials of this coun try. Go! You are not tit to decide be tween two dogs. Go! you aredtsohurgod,” and waviug bis band told them to “Get away.” The action of the Judge caused some surprise, and raised tho (roof the jurors, and an attorney, upon their bo Imi r waited upon the Judge and requeeted an explanation. The Judge replied that he wantod tosoe the Jury at 4 o'clock lu tho afternoon, at which time he made hu apol ogy for hfa*remarks, saying they were used In the heat of excitement, and there, where he made use of his intemperate laguage. he desired to make all amends. Tho jurors expressed themselves as satis fied with the explanation. Ultimate Division of California. The BtrUcing-adwaoes la the noptila ti.n of Southern California, disclosed by the vote et the Presidential elec tion, brings nearer the day when Cal ifornia, instead of remaining tho long,straggling and tinwieldly State she now, will be divided Into two sjmmetrioal and homogeneous Slates. The polioy of our country has always been to respect the wish of the people for reasonable local subdivisions. Two things ore called for, or will be shortly; A United States Court for Southern California, and a term of the Supreme Court of the State at Los Angelos. These we should have anyhow, however long the division of the State may be post poned. Los Angeles would make a good capital for the new State.—Xo* Angeles Herald. What Is a Car Load.

Oregon. Portland, Nov. 23,—Senator Kelly and a number of prominent Demo crats held a meetingto-dny. The na ture of the consultation was kept se cret, but is believed to have been for the purpose ot determining whut course to pursue regarding Watt’s case. Some of the Democrats, who profess to know, affirm that the Gov ernor will issue the certificate unless enjoined. The Republicans receive such declarations with distrust. United States Disttiot Attorney Coghlan, of California, is here, and has been closeted several times with the chairman of the Republican State Central Comittw and prominent RepuhtteiUK. As yet they decline to announce what course they will pur sue should Watts’ certificate not be issued. —A meeting in behalf of Temperance is to be bekl at Geneva on Tuesday night. IS IT KEFCRMCA*? The Congressional committee np | pointed to report a form of govern ment for the Dastrlot of Columbia. I havg, it i# stated, agreod upon a bill which provides for three commis sioners, one of whom Is to be appoint, cd by tl President, by and with the advice and consent of tho Senate, for tho term of four years. The second is to be elected by the House bf Rep resentatives bj ballot for two years, and the third elected by the Senate by ballot for six years. Thecommls siouersare invested with full powers to carry on the District Government, and are to be constituted by a body corporate. This bill, if approved by the full oommitteo, will be reported to Congress for its action. This kind of government, though something like it has of lute been in operation in the District of Columbia, Is an unotually in our American system It deprives the people of the District of atl share in their local government. Even tho Territories, in their condi tion of tutelage, hnvo larger powers of self-government, for they elect their own legislatures; and with them this condition is ouly temporary and pre paratory. But the District of Colum bia, with a population greater than, that of some of the Territories, a regu lar and permanent local government, appointed by Congress and President in choice of whom the people of the Dlsirict havo no voico, is proposed. Is such a government republican, and does the Constitution of tho Uni ted States, in vesting in Congress ex clusive jurisdiction over the District, authorize the Federal Government to give it any other form of govern ment than that which it is bound to guarantee to the several States-a republican one? The secret of this movement to govern the District of Columbia by “commissioners” appointed by Con gress arid the President, is the desire to savo it from negro control. At the close of tho war the negroes flocked Into Washington city in such num bers as to give tho control to tiny small class of white men with whom they might form a political associa tion, and it is hardly necessary to ex plain to the Southern people tho class that they found associates in. They obtained control of the District government, and ran it exactly as they ran the governments of the Southern States while they had the power. The property holders had to seek relief in a government not of the people of the District; arid the bill now agreed upon proposes to continue such a government. They vitiated suffrage until it beeamo uir endurable, and now they seek a rem edy similar to that of tho old New York farmer who got rid of the rats by burning his barn. We hope that the Democrats in Congress wil 1 aid in imposing upon no part oi the people of the country a government anti-republican in its form. We hope that they will throw upon tho people of the District of Columbia tlie duty of ridding them selves of their ruts without burning the barn.

Up to the close of our day dis patches of yesterday, tho sword of Damocles was still suspended over the Democratic House of Represent atives of South Carolina, but the blow had not been struck. Evidently the powers at Washington felt some concern about the enormity of the outrage which they had prepared to commit, and hesitated in tho lxo|w* Of avoiding it. But tlie Democraiio members stood firmly to their posts and showed no signs of yielding. They had held un all-night session in the ball, maintaining ttaoir posi tion for fear that admission would be denied them when they sought to re-enter ufter adjournment. They had determined to stay until they were taken out by force, and to cutri (Hsl the military authorities to resort to that, harsh proceeding to get them out. If they could have been neared out, thpre would have been grim sat isfaction at Washington, and the work of the conspirators would have been quickly consummated. Their firm stand will either frustrate the design of the Federal administration or make it execute its programme in ull its nuked atrocity. We hope that t here is good founda tion for the intimations that General Huger dislikes the work imposed upon him and contemplates resign ing rather than push it, to the ex tremity threatened. Tho Radical Legislature bad re solved to count the votes for Gov ernor and declare the result yester day. Therefore it was that they pro cured from tho military authorities the threat to exclude the Edgefield and Laurens Democrats by 12 o’clock yesterday. The threat was not car ried out within the time named, and the question now is whether the usurping powers will have the auda city to enter tho hall and take them out by force. The Democrats of the South Caro lina Legislature are making a heroic stand for constitutional government and the rights of their State and peo ple. They may be able to do noth ing more than to plaee tho issue in volved in a most startling manner before the American people. They owe it to themselves us well ns to their sympathisers and friends throughout the country to do this, and millions of patriots all over the Union are now fervently hoping that they will adopt tho counsel of Sum ner to Stantou—“Stick.” The Feeling ln tlie Army. From Don Piatt'- Wawhinuton Letter (Nov. 2.U1) to tlie Cincinnati Enquirer. I started out yesterday to make a round among the officers I happened to know intimately, to learn from them, if I could, tlie meaning, us they saw' it, of this move on Wash ington. I found them mysteriously reticent. I doubt whether they knew themselves. “My dear fellow,” said one more frank and outspoken than the others —and a very clever one, in every sense of the’word, lie is >- l would tell you if 1 knew, but I don’t. I might shako my head and look com passionately upon you, as the rest do, but it is all cussed nonsense so far as that goes. Wo know nothing, abso lutely nothing,” “What is vour opinion ?” “I think something must be meant by the infernal mystery thrown about it. Generally when t, movement is near, it is talked about openly in ad vance; there is no concealment, nor a reason for any. But on this occa sion we are suddenly huddled up nm) ordered off, without even being fa vored with information ns to our destination, and every effort in that line te met with a snub.” “So you obey orders ?” “That is our trade—for that we are soldiers.” “And would you, if ordered, march into the Hall of tho House and arrest Representatives at the point of the the bayonet?” “Well, I don’t know. What witli your continued talk about one’s re maining a citizen although a soldier, and our late experience at the South, wo are learning much that- it is not taught at West Point.” “Wlmt do you mean by late exper ience at the South.” “We who have been sent South to protect tlie carpet-baggers have learned that instead of sustaining law and order, we have been used as tools for a dirty sort of oppression, built up on ignorance of which you can have no conception. This lias so disgusted artuy officers that the President finds it difficult to send such as the politicians cn depend on. One reason why the lute elections at t he South resulted in Democratic vic tories was, as I learn from letters written by brother officers stationed there, that they refused positively to be used, and gave both parties to understand that they would not. in terfere unless a riot occurred- “Then you’d exrecise some discre tion in obeying the order to march into the House ?” “I should be*vory apt to say to my superior officer that he bail better march in himself, that I should not know which side to make arrests from.” “I wish I could think your senti ments were those of i he army.” “You have a goodly lot, 1 can tell you. Let me see”—and lie ran over the names ot four Brigadier Generals in tlie regular army and a brigade ot Colonels and Majors. Tiiis was ex ceedingly gratifying at. Hie time, but lifter it rattier added to my grave ap prehensions for save himself there was but one of the list lie gave me called to Washington. Those who were called especially for the work, whatever it may be, strike me as a set of gentlemen with just bruin enough to obey orders. General Sherman is one of the ugliest and most dangerous of the lot. He has in him nil ill-concealed contempt fertile masses and that re-exaggertited opin ion of and belief in his profession of epanieted throat-cutting peculiar to the mere soldier. stick tn Ttutr Business. Scientific AuiexicAU.) There is nothing which should be more frequently impressed upon the minds of the young men than the importance of steadily pursuing someone business. Tlie frequent changing from one employment to another is one cf the common errors committed, and to it may be traced more tiiau half the failures of men in business, amt much of the discontent and disap pointment which render life uncomforta ble. It is a very common thing ior a man to be dissatisfied with his business, and to desire to change it tor some other, which, it seems to him, will prove a more lucra tivo employment; but, in nine cases out of ten. it is a mistake. Look round you, and you will find among yonr acquain tances abundant verifications of onr acr- tion. There is no honest farmer who tins toiled a few years, got his farm paid for, but does not grow rich very rapidly, as much for look of coatfotment mingled with Industry ns anything, though lie is not nwuraof it.
