MINORITY REPRESENTATION.
By the power of the bayonet and through
delusion of the multitude, the Radical party
has fastened upou the Government and
claims supreme authority in the “ United’
States. Having compassed the corruption
or destruction of cveiy vital principle oi
Republicanism and paralyzed every check
established by the Constitution, this party
asserts dominion as a representative ot the
popular will and the popular majority.
Let us examine how this lop-sided ar
rangement lias been’brought about.
At the last elections in Ohio and Ken
tucky the vote stood thus:
Democrat. Republican.
,&Yio! ...V 215,000 252,000
Kentucky ... .... 90,000 83,000
t 805,000 285,000
The reader will remark t hat in these two
States tlie Democrats have a combined ma
jority of 20,000. Their representation iu
Congress stands tf,s follows:
805,000 Democrats have 3 members.
285,000 Republicans have 16 members.
Given the combined black and white vote
as it should be in the South, and given the
Conservative vote of the Northern, Middle
and Western Stales, the same disparity be
tween majority and representation will be
discovered when compared with even the
strongest vote that Radicalism ever polled.
SThe Cincinnati Enquirer computes that the
popular majority would, even under the
besETtarttCal estimate, stand several hun
dred thousand to the credit of Conserva
tism. We are of the same conviction and
believe the most rigid scrutiny would
fail to diminish the material proportions of
these figures.
Will any fair-minded man contend that
such a system of representation is equit
able; will any honest politician champion
such a fraud upon the “ popular will ?”
It may be asserted that a revolutionary
party, having the reins of government, can
manufacture majorities to suit itself and
create a popular will by raids outside the
Constitution: but, if the assertor be a
Northern Radical, we do not hesitate to tell
him that just as he made war upon the
South under the banners of Hypocrisy, he
is perpetuating his warfare by the very
frauds that follow as the consequences of
falsehood. The war that had for its battle
slogans “ Constitution and Union,” was a
criminal war, so long as neither is estab
lished ; and it is an,unsuccessful war so
long as they continue disrupted. Nay, if
is an ignominious war when the real ob
jects fire dragged to light, viz: the over
throw of Republican freedom and the su
premacy of a faction.
We warn the Radical party that a day
must come when the measure they have
meted out to others will be measured back
to them. That popular majority they so
arrogantly claim is getting restin' and im
patient. The German and Irish elements
that helped swell their ranks are being elim
inated. The negft is getting too close
for their comfort, their privileges and their
race-instincts. The foul-mouthed abuse
heaped upon foreigners by such men as
Wade and Chandler is beginning to tell
upon their self-respect. They are growing
uneasy and disgusted at the comparisons
made between them and the blacks. The
determination is wide-spread to pay the fat
bondholder In National Currency or repu
diate liis blood-bought bonds altogether.
The strife of party leaders betokens a world
of petty jealousy and antagonism. The
prospect of a Southern restoration under
African auspices strikes terror to the Cau
casian heart everywhere. Political and so
cial depravity rears its gigantic shadow
over the land and gives the virtuous and
patriotic a horror of the monster that
forms its substance. The conviction grows
apace that a restoration of the Union is not
•so much impeded by Southern pride or stub
bornness as by Congressional conspiracy and
incapacity. The weakened morale of the
party was displayed by Sanford Conover ;
by the trutti about Andcrsonville and Mrs.
Surratt. These and a hundred other
warnings admonish the Radical party that
it is not invincible; that it has the seeds of
decay alluded to by Wendell Phillips ;
that it has seen its best dhys; that the
spirit of the people cannot be subdued for
ever ; that the majority may teach it cer
tain tunes to dance by from its own hymn
book; that the popular will may, before
many months have come and gone, rise up
for popular retribution and popular com
pensation—not, we trust, by the bloody
code that led to despotism but rather by
the moral force of indignant Law.
By common instinct or persuasion, all
men seem to agree that every stride for
ward in despotism is a stride toward ulti
mate relief, whether it come with the olive
branch of the Virgin Justice or the relent
less Sword of Carsar. We arc “ shooting
Niagara ” and few dare look over the
chasm or into the torrent beyond. But
tills, at least, has invaded the souls of des
perate men, that the country can not be
suffocated long and live. This sentiment
is pervadiug the North as keenly as the
South, the East as vividly as the West.
To quote the words of the llound Table :
“ It is as well that we should be borne on
swiftly to the struggle that is to save us Irons
the abyss—that Browulows, Stevenses, and
Wades should be multiplied ; that American
men should be driven from the polls to make
room for slaves by birth or slaves by nature ;
that every unseemly thing should be exalted,
and every provision of nature distorted ; that
the utter intolcrnbtcness of it should appear
beyond possibility of concealment—so that,
seeing the foulness of this bastard Republicanism
■we may extricate ourselves from its current and
save ourselves and the country from the wreck.”
A Nomination. —The Detroit Press pro
poses Joseph Hoi.t for President and Ban
ford Conover for Vice-President.
If elected, they will probably keep the
oath of office as well as Lincoln did—as
well as the Rump does. False swearing has
Become a fine art.
The Vermont Elections. —The Repub
lican majority for Governor of Vermont is
18,000. Last year it was 22,825. This is a
J)emocrat>ic gain of nearly 5,000 votes.
RECONSTRUCTION.
■ . ,
gTiie labors-of the press, the legislation of
Congress, the letters of Governor Pkkky,
Mr. Hum, General Hampton and Governor
Johnson have l>een in vain, if men do not
it this time understand the merits and
demerits of Congressional Reconstruction.
That they have been lost upon many per
sons, intelligent persons withal, we know ;
for wc are besieged constantly with the
same old questions and objections. For
the benefit of such seekers, we pro]x>se to
re-travel the dreary path of controversy,
uni, "as cogently as possible, urge and
answer such queries as, even at this late
day, have lodgment in the minds of a most
worthy class of—citizens.
Was Georgia ever out of the Union V If
so, how did the State contrive to secede V
The people of Georgia did not rive asunder
the links that bound her to the General
Government by force of arms. Proof : Ihe
failure of the attempt in the failure of the
arbitrament.
If the State was out of the Union,
che act was accomplished by virtue of the
legality and right of the Secession Ordi
nance.
If the Ordinance of Secession was legal
and constitutional, the Northern States
waged war against her for lust and empire,
and not, as they swore, to preserve the
Union and maintain the majesty of the
Federal pact. An affirmation of the
validity of secession involves the North in
a great crime.
If the Ordinance of Secession was un
constitutional, nulland void,as the dominant
section now maintains and forced us to the
solemn acknowledgment; then the Union
i lias never been destroyed, and the Constitu
> tion remains in pristine integrity.
As the North, then, will not admit the
1 fraud of waging an unjust war against a
’ constitutional right; and as the admission
ofthe validity of secession and rupture of
the Union would implicate t}ie N'U'th hi
such a crime, we must conclude that the
Union never was broken. If it never was
broken, what need of repair or reconstruc
tion ?
If these propositions are plainly stated
and clearly demonstrated, what prevents
political harmony and domestic quiet—what
prevents a fulfillment of the sworn objects
of war V
The unscrupulous demagogues of tiie
North and their unprincipled allies in our
midst attribute the anarchy now prevalent
to the stiff-necked and rebellious spirit of
the South,
Having yielded to every exaction demand
ed by caprice or vindictiveness; having
bowed our heads in Die mire and forsaken
our cherished dogmas ; having, In a word,
gone far beyond the actual bond of surren
der and the ordinary limits of human en
durance—we have received in return scorn
and contumely, we have been met with more
than (Jarthagenian faith and basely requir
ed to commit political suicide and bastardize
the State.
For what? Constitution, Union, Equal
Rights, the dry bones of justice? No, none
of these. Having become slaves and pimps,
we are to be rewarded by Probation.
Let us grant, for the sake of an exact
understanding, that the shock of arms, if it
did not break the Union weakened it; so
weakened it that some legislation is neces
sary to a complete and equitable restora
tion. Granting that no perfect restoration
can lx; accomplished “outside the Constitu
tion ;” how can a successful restoration be
brought about by a party that sets at naught
the objects of the war; spits upon the in
strument that alone made Die country
glorious and was deemed worthy of a half
million of lives and thousands of millions
of money to preserve ? How shall there be
a heaven of content through a cabal that
“ organizes hell” over a large portion of the
country and prefers to reign there in infer
nal chaos, rather than risk the loss of a
blood-bought and wrath-continued do
minion ?
When pressed to the wall, the Southern
Radicals gdmit theuuconstitutionalityofthe
Congressional plan, but urge that it is of
the last importance it should be ac
cepted, in order that we may lie represented
in Congress; that once represented our
voices will be heard and our rights restored.
The Loyal League and its revengeful and
plundering cohorts, black and white, will
be represented ; but not the manhood, the
virtue, the pride, the intellect, the aspira
tion of Georgia. The leaders of the Loyal
Leagues will represent their party wig
wams, but not the holy firesides of the
State. The test oath that bars better men
from true representation will be their shield ;
its perpetuity will be his only safeguard.
Kentucky is a State that needed no re
construction ; she is denied representation.
Tennessee has been reconstructed and if
‘ represented.” Better a thousand years
even of General Pope than a Brownlow
restoration.
The true representatives of loyal Ken
tucky are thrust out of Congress*. Why ?
Because they happened to disagree with
the Radical party. Men who would be ac
ceptable to Wade and Chandler will
never represent Georgia. We predict that
Kentucky will sacrifice her right of repre
sentation rather than submit to the iron
will of the rule or ruin faction.
If any Georgian desires such representa
tion as Congressional reconstruction aft'ords,
he is far gone in despair or depravity. If
he imagines, poor soul, that representation
of this character can do him any good, he
is sunk in the depths of stupidity.
Congressional reconstruction will remove
the military establishment. Did it remove
the military from Tennessee? Is not Gen
eral Thomas still in the Department of the
Cumberland ? Grant that it would remove
the United States troops; are they not bet
ter than “loyal militia?” Once “recon
structed ” alter the method of Congress, we
will have our Brownlow, never fear ; he
will have his murderous body guards never
doubt. Is any sane man foolish enough to
prefer a Georgia Brownlow to Major. Gen
eral Pope; a loyal militia to the regular
soldier? If so, he has an appetite for hor
rors and would sup witli Pluto, deny the
mother that bore him and the God that
gives him breath.
Congressional Reconstruction will secure
property. Indeed ! Is it secure in Tennes
see ? Suppose Congress fail to confiscate,
will our Georgia Brownlow so fall ? The
mild confiscation already, in appropriations
of the municipal fund, is nothing to the
sweeping plunder that unchecked license
will employ.
The last gasp of the advocates of Con
gressional Reconstruction is through the
medium of statistics. They demonstrate
that the negro vote must constantly grow
feebler and feebler, because the ratio of de
crease is much greater In a state of free
dom than that of the white race ; that the
white race will continually receive fresh
increase from emigration, while the negro
is cut off from all reinforcement; that the
rising generation of whites will not be dis
franchised, and hence will, in time, out-vote
the negro.
To this it may be replied that waiting
for dead men’s shoes Is universally
ceded to be weary watching ; that ei
tion will never come to an accursed c<
that the rising generation may become
inured to tyranny and lie the dupe se f their
country’s destroyers. The men, the living
men, the men who were born frr & and hate
despotism, who can never used to
political slavery and social 'degradation—
these are the men to save th dir country and
save their children. It s'ach slrnll suiter,
pray, struggle aud sacrifice iu vain, the
country is ripe for destruction and to
destruction will it headlong go.
A Mathematical Pkoiu.km.—The North, in
her course to us, is now making exhibition of
the size of her soul—the world will see how big
or how lillle.— Jiwhmontl Enquirer.
As the Grand Turk is supixised to have a
very infinitesimal soul; aud as the Grand
Turk lias granted universal amnesty to the
Caudiotes; and as lie did not wait two years
to show his clemency, but made an instan
taneous revelation; and as the Turk is a
ioiiower of Mahound ; and as the Yankee
is a, so-caiied, adherent of Christ ; and as
the Cretans are to the Ottomans foreign
Giours; and as the Southrons are to the
Y ankees “ brethren”—we call for a micro
scope to measure the size of the Yankee
soul. The man who examined the crevices
of a fly’s tool, to sec if it iiaif .stolen auy sugar,
will please step forth aud make the experi
| incut demanded by the Enquirer and Ex-
I arniner.
A Radical Precisian. —The Yankees
who gathered up the bones of their rela
tives and curried them Northward in car
pet-bags, in order to avoid the freight, have
lieen more than matched by a German of
the false faith. A correspondent of the N.
O. Picayune thus describes Mr. Ottkr
bouro, the U. S. Consul iu Mexico :
“ lie its Radical enough iu all conscience.
Qe is even mean and merciless in his Radical
ism ; he tracks his political enemies to the
grave ; he is keenly alive to the wishes of his
Radical friends at home. I will illustrate :
Ex-Roveruor Allen, of Louisiana, is an exile in
Mexico ; lie is poor, and a Confederate, hut a
noble man. lie dies in the capital; his Irietids
wish to bury liiui iu his uniform ; they uak ol
the American Consul an order for interment;
he refuses, hut afterwards grants it, provided
the Confederate buttons are removed from his
coat. He even sends ins clerk to see that the
buttons are cut off.”
On the Haw.—ln a late letter to his jour
nal, from Europe, Mr. Forney applauds the
Impersonality of the English press. There
the papers are known, not their editors and
writers.
The three newspapers in America, says
the Richmond Enquirer, which offend the
most against this rule, and thereby do most
to recommend it, are Forney’s “ two papers,
both daily,” and the Washington Star. In
these sheets, the names of “ Colonel" J. W.
Forney, W. D. Wallach, “ Esq.,” figure ad
nauseam. Mankind is singularly perverse.
If a man has red hair he lets it grow long;
if a cracked voice, he cultivates vocal
music; if he has such a name as Wallach or
Forney he parades it, instead of treating it
as a thing to tie hidden !
A Wise Prohibition. —The new consti
tution of Maryland, to be submitted to the
people at an early day, bars clergymen
from the General Assembly. When a min
ister turns politician lie is out of his ele
ment and exposed to influences calculated
to weaken the cause of religion and the
priestly character. Political ministers have
done fearful mischief in the North. A
sprinkling of them through the Loyal
Leagues in the South would be a bitter
sarcasm upon their Master and the beauti
ful sermons they preacli about Kingdom
Come.
A Bright Idea.— An English correspond
ent of the New York Times says:
“ Mr. Bitu>UT has studied American politics,
and he is satisfied that llie ballot is an effectual
cure for coercion and corruption. With the
ballot no man can be c’tlier forced or hired to
vote against his convictions. If lie has no con
victions that is another matter, and it will be
the duty and office ot the Reform League to
furnish them, us required.”
I
He has studied Loyal League politics
with a vengeance. As P. T. Barnum is the
best known American name in Great Brit
ain; so the greatest cheat in politics is the
best studied theory. Have we not said that
John Bright is Thai). Stevens in dis
guise ?
Wiiat Hamlin Thinks.— Mr. Lincoln’s
man Friday thinks the country is in a
crisis more dangerous than during the war.
He thinks if the smash does not come in
November, when the lliimn meets, that the
Rump aforesaid, combined with Providence,
will save the country.
'Hint combination of influences smacks of
Siiwarrow, who always commenced his
dispatches thus: Glory to God and the
Empress ! That Empress was the obscene
Messalina of Russia ; the Rump is—the
Rump.
Another Note.— The Hon. B. H. Hill
has published another Note ou the Situa
tion. It is a counterblast to General
Pope’s letter and addressed to General
Grant. The points made have been made
long ago by the press, but being grouped
together in a vigorous style and fortified by
a distinguished name may reacli the General
in an emphatic aud direct way.
Definitions. —The difference between
Radical conservatism and Radical radicalism
is, that, while the latter disowns the Con
stitution, the former betrays it. This is the
difference between Stevens and Sherman.
So says the Louisville Journal. The point
is well put. It might have defined Southern
Radicalism as a combination of both.
Anger and Fear. —lt need not escape
the dullest observer that If the Radicals are
very wroth they are very much afraid.—
Afraid of “ masked batteries,” “ cats in meal
tubs” et id omne. The clangor they raise
exhibits less of valor than despair.
——l i
In a Stew.— The Nashville Radicals are
having a triangular fight, over municipal
spoils. Each party accuses the other of
designs irioii the city treasury. They are
all alike—foeincn worthy of their steal.
—— -» BSw
A Sorry Prospect. —Between impeach
ment, exclusion of representatives, special
amnesties and wholesale corruption, the re
construction of the Union is in a poor
plight. v
A Nice Distinction.— Key. Chapin gets
110,000 salary and Beecher gets $12,,’500.
The extra $2,500 is supposed, says the
World, to be for salvation which Chapin’s
flock, being Univcrsalists, don’t need.
We noticed, a few days ago, that'Mr. Tyng, of
New York, (son of Rev. Dr. Tyng) is determin
ed to be tried on the accusation which has
been brought against him for preaching in a
Methodist church in Newark. The accuser
wants to get away from the issue, bat Mr.
Tying and his Low Church friends refuso. As
if to insure a settlement of the question of
church discipline which has been raised on
him, Mr. Tyng is repeating his alleged offense
iu fresli quarters. He preached last Sunday in
the Dutch Reformed Church at Saratoga.

say 125 by 200 miles—are the most V)ealitlfliL.
fertile and healthy agricultural lands fceffcH

'tercel, and will produce wheat, (spring) com,
tobacco, cotton, cotfee, cocoa. This is fas
agricultural region. This place is at tL
mouth of the Caroni, three miles below tip
falls. This is the commercial and maiuK
flicturing point, between the Caroni and
Sapata is tiie mining region. It is a dry
mountain savannah, interspersed with spots
of the very richest lands, with heavy tim
ber, but it can never be a farming section,
though it may make cattle farms. The
lands on the Oronoco are overflowed for
about ten days in each rainy season now,
but are adapted to corn, sugar and rice
They may be said to be the best sugar and
rice lands in the world. The whole couu
iij is very healthy. We have seeu but one ■

we have traversed the country everywhere!
lor liuudreds of miles. The gold mines, ow-S
iug to rain and exposure, are very sickly L
Provisions are high and scarce, from the*!
influx to the mines and demand for food -
Emigrants must all bring flour, bacon, lard J
rtirniture, and especially agricultural im- ■.
plemeuts. The classes who will do well here ’
and make fortunes are planters, black
smiths, bricklayers, carpenters, machinists,
merchants with capital, surveyors and en
gineers.
The soil and climate has more than real
ized my expectations. The people are kind,
very lazy and indolent, and anxious fdr ns'
to come. Planters can make double here
what they can in the States, with one-half
the labor. They should be sure, alsofto
bring seed wheat (spring), cotton seed and
garden seed, as the change of cotton seed*
lias proved highly advantageous. With
proper culture the Couri country will prove
the garden of the workl. It Is navigable
high up, and everything can lie shipped
with ease. Good roads au<l railroads in
this region can easily be constructed. This
region only contains 800 inhabitants. Bol
ivar is a large city, very nourishing, but
too high up lor commerce. This will be the
future commercial centre, as it is lh%point
of shipment for all the mining region.
We now have three settlements; but
nineteen persons, including women and
children, have become dissatisfied, and all
these were Yankc.es, except two, who smug
gled themselves among us. Every Confed
erate who went to farming and trading has.
done well. Out of the party who went to,
the mines, all were sick, and four died,—.
They have left the mines and gone wu liirni?
ins?, and all are he;ilt?ty.
I iiever saw such a river for fish as the 1
Couri; they literally team in, somewlfat
like our shad, from 12 to 50 nounfls; c:tv
tlsh from Ito 500 pounds. Strange to say,'
not a seine is run, ami they still rely on the
barb spear. I shall settle at this point, and
will return here in November, but have se
lected my land on the Couri.

SOME INTERESTING ESTIMATES.
To the Editors of the Picayune :
As everything connected with our great
staple is of vast importance to our poor and
impoverished people, 1 beg leave to hand you
below some figures made up by one of the old
est and most reliable merchants in the city of
New York, and one of the best friends of the
South during the last twenty-five years, includ
ing the trying times of the late war. If his cal
culations are correct, may we not expect still
to command something like adequate prices for
our staple, notwithstanding the attempt of our
friends, on the other side, to “ bear ” the mar
ket.. I proceed to giyc his statistics :
'flic stock of cotton in Liverpool, a‘l kimls,
Aug. 8,1807, was 733,600
Add from Blli of August to 31st December,
receipt* ns last year, tor saino period,(they J
may not get as much)

All equal amount ol business from AugnsD
Stli to the end of the year would ioavh a very
small stock of cotton to start the new year
with. Hut it is not likely to occur that Liver
pool will be down to 100.000 I wiles cotton. An
approximation to it would so far advance
prices that rather than pay, their business
would be materially curtailed. The question,
however, is, wliat will the amount of business
bo ? The immensity of idle capital and the
cheapness of interest, taken by itself, should
stimulate to activity.
Stock of American cotton, separately, Bth Au

Received last year after Bth August, (will they
get as much, or more, same time this year).195,342
Would make supply for twenty weeks 527,582
Twenty weeks consumption and export on the
ratio of tldrty-two weeks to August 8,1807,
would be, say 20,290 per week, (and consume

The quality of cotton (American)
taken for consumption the last
twenty weeks of 1880, was 309.500

Yours, truly, V
American Widws in Europe.—The inter
marriage of Americans with Europeans, Is the
subject of much remark of the Paris correspon
dent oftho Baltimore Gazette , as follows :
American widows are in a decided demand
on the continent, as is evinced bo the numerous
matrimonial alliances contracted by them. It
is but a few weeks since the attractive widow
of a Northern Brigadier-General, killed in the
late war, was led to the altar by a distinguished
Irish commoner, though she had declared her
intention when coming abroad to captivate an
English duke and nothing less. She could not,
however, withstand the Irish blarney, but sur
rendered to a Dublin Squire. More recently,
the beautiful Mrs. Hewitt, of Louisiana, has
given her haud to a Polish gentleman a citizen
of New York, temporarily residing in Paris. —
The marriage was cclobratcd at the American
Embassy, and afterward at tlic Chapel Mar beau f,
from whence the bridal party, with their friends,
adjourned to dejeuner at their handsome new
apartment* in the Champs El.vsces. Other fair
widows are reported (and include in the num
ber a young and iuterestiug lady from the
Monumental City wlio is about to bo wedded
to an officer of the English navy) as upon the
high road to a second 6t,ale of matrimony,
while young American maidens are complain
ing of the scarcity of beanx, and many of them
declare Paris to be stripped front the want of
eligible yonng men to flirt witli or marry.—
These all coho Mr. Weller’s ndvico to his son
Samuel, when he bids him “beware of the wid
derg.”
The first halo of now cotton for the present
season was brought from the plantation of Mr.
A. E. Cox, on Saturday last, 3lst nit., was
classed low middling, sold to J. 8. Bean, Cotton
buyer, at Z‘£% cents per pound, and shipped to
Claghorn, Herring A Co., Augusts, .Qa. Jlr.
Bean is a gentleman of energy and enUrpriec,
and is ever on the alert for something om.
Two other bales were brought in during tho
day—one by Major flolderness and the other
from tho west side of tho river by a Mr. Young.
