OOTXF riT IJ'Ti ONALI ST. AUGUSTA, (*A, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 31,1868 President: HOHATIO SEYMOUR, OF NEW YORK. For Vice-l J resi<'lont: FRANCIS P. BLAIR, OF MISSOURI. IIP SALT EIVES. The telegraph wires convey good news to the jioople oi Georgia. We. are spared the ineffable disgrace of having JosM’H E- Brown anil Foster Blodgett as Senators from this old Commonwealth, even in the National Ramp. The man who has the signal reputation of being an undoubted traitor and renegade , who, from the lust oi office, wallowed in the mire to compass his selllsh aims; who has been the arch-fiend at the elbow of Pope and Meade, whisper ing demonism and torture ; who hung like a bloodhound on the trail of his innocent fellow-citizens of Columbus, and would have brought them to the gallows it his machinations had not beep thwarted; who would have bartered his soul for the robes of a Senator —this man has tailed to receive the reward lie so vehemently intrigued for, and a shout of jubilation at his downfall swells like the voice of many waters over the State he has endeavored to degrade. And hardly less intense, fervid and uni versal is the joy felt and expressed that his companion in evil and low trickery has shared a common ruin. Butt.er, the Beast, who recognized in Bi.odof.tt a familiar spirit, and who predicted his entrance into the Senate chamber “ among the proudest ” Biitj.ek i« inconsolable, and strews his head with apple-blossoms to conceal the chagrin of another false prediction. "Who can tell the purple dreams, the gorgeous visions of the ex-Oaptain of Confederate volunteers, when stormy sleep played upon the harp of fiction and filled his ears with that ravishing refrain: “All hail, Blodgett, Senator from Georgia!" uj n dreams, through camp anti court lie tw>re, ■i'lie sii'm-t of a—Senator.” to Ids confusion aifrt much to the delight of our people, it was only n dream, ;tu ,l” like the Turk’s in llalgeck’s lyric, a most deceptive vision it proved to be. He has thrown his best stake—and lost. Will Bum .oca provide him with a soft, place somewhere, or must the cx-llaptain bo con tent witii a place in his memory, dearestV Or, JiaviUK been effectually snubbed l>y Bryant, will he seek a place near Bn'tWit toy tripping up carpet-bagger PruNCKftt the siext Congressional election? Or does he hope to curse this city by another term of the Mayoralty, provided the $5,000 salary retrains? Or will he split the party and give the carpet-bag gentry a Uolaud for an Oliver ? Or does lie aspire toa Generalship in the State miliun? The nl \ this restless creature are still considerable, in the event that District Attorney Fw'ii should fail to make a case. Cardinal Wor,- skv—we beg -pardon of an eminent, ghost for the comparison—Cardinal VVolhby, when in a somewhat similar condition oi political huiniliatioti, knocked at thedOor „fa convent, and “ craved a little earth for j charity.’’ Methinks, we behold the ambi tious ih.om-.Krr banging at the door of the 1 .oyal la-ague Wigwam and begging a iittle ■mdredirt, for revenge. What may trans- j pire within those ms hallowed portals, we j can conceive. Ancient Pwrot. lifts furnished the text and commentary. Me eats the leek, perforce, but swears aloud: “ All hell I shall <|«ake for this!” j While we have reason to congratulate, our readers upon the overthrow of Brown j and hb.omn.-n-, vve have many assurances, ihat J.vhla Him. and Dr. Mhakb, their j successful competitors, will, during the j time they may be seated in the Senate, do | no act un worthy 01 the. Slate. I hough not. our choice, and though we must deem their election informal, they arc immeasur ably preferable, in every respect, to the men they defeated. We opine that precious lit tle Radicalism is in their composition, and, it may not be too much to say that the Democratic column will, for all practical purposes, be stronger by two votes in the ,Senate of the United States. The Legislature has, in some degree, atoned for the obloquy of adopting the fourteenth amendment.. Let. the atonement proceed and lie honorably perfected by the nentowal of a putt’ and upright Judiciary. T'hk “RED" Homici tie .—Although It Wft* the decisioo **i the coroner’s jury that tin: ver dict should not be developed at the nine of ad- ■ joprnment, (or particular reasons, wo have I canted since that the result was the finding 1 hat Mi'.

Dillon and Charles Evans in <**- commission of an unlawful act, aud that the first named is guilty of murder, and the second accessory thereto. We have not seen a copy of five verdict, hut believe this to be the substance of it. Evans was arrested fust night by Deputy Sheriff Crufijp, a warrant having’ been issued by Esquire. Riud/.y. We suppose a warrant will be served on Milan t«- « day. ... , Scai vw vo --A correspondent, says the At lanta L’onsUUUion, wishes to know the mean ing of this term. It ifi a vulgarism and Araeri can in origin. It is without root or branch id the English, Latin, Greek Ot Hebrew tongues. If. is United Stales in extract— Radical id ten dering—a low, worthless fellow ' H scape grace. It. is particularly expressive id these degenerate days, when the scam of society Is drifting to the top. Funbbal. of Mu. Rbd.—One of the most extensive luneral procession that we have ever witnessed in Augusta Weducsday escorted the remains of Mr. C. A. Red to the grave. There is a deep feeling of sympathy for the family of this murdered gentleman, and an earnest de sire that the perpetrators should be made to answer the demands of jnstice. Mass Mb eying at Aiken, 8. U.—The De mocratic Club of Aiken, 8. C., propose having a mass meeting of the friends of Seymour and Blair at that place, on Tuesday, next, the 4th of August. Uen. Wade Hampton, and other distinguished gentlemen, wiU address the meet ing. A sumptuous lurbeeue WiH he prepared for who attend. (Oui bp»ui»; CiWieepun'-iAtoJ# j Letter from Aahgviiie, IT, 0. AsHF.vn.rJt. N. €., July ‘24,18*18. Mu. Editor : A pari.'of the journey from j Augusta to this place is weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable. Leaving Augusta at 4, j). in., you dash Jnto Columbia next morn ing at G: if*, making the whole distance in just fourteen hours and fifteen n*.antes by the watch. From Colombia to Greenville the speed is, if anything, more rapid stilt. Yon arrive a little before night, finding a beautiful town spreading itself over several hills, with a clear stream winding through the-midst, and furnishing the motive pow er for two or three mills. The place is handsomely built up, contains an excellent hotel, and the nine qua w of up-country towns, a first-class livery stable. The ride from this point to Asheville in a private conveyance is the only pleasant part of the journey. Soon after starting, you obtain a distant view of the Saiuda Mountains, the terminus of the day’s travel. You do not fail to point them out to the. little “ chips of the old block,” which Wave out with enthu siasm at the novel sigh!, and never weary of watching for their re-appearance at every turn in the road, in the aftemo-m you ] reach the base of the principal mu-re, and begin the ascent. Mrs. BununerUmc in sists that she can scale the height on fool; the younger Summertimes are out in a trice and dashing headlong into a black berry patch, while Bummertime gater fa m<u, not to be outdone in any honorable enterprise, resolves to vindicate his you! h and agility by trudging slowly up in the rear. It is glorious sport al Jirti. Fanned by cooling zyphyrs, and refreshing yourself now and then at the springs which gush from some subterranean ifce-house, you be gin to feed contempt for Napoleon crossing the, Alps, and fancy it was no great achieve ment after all. But before long tonic cola ed change. Mrs. Hummertime concludes to ride. The juvenile Summertimes are a quarter of a mile jh advance. Bummer time, senior, is not to be conquered by triflesf and determines to walk to tin summit. On we go up, up, up—the heroic pedestrian falling every mimFc larther and farther in the rear. The combat deepens. A turn in the road brings you into the scorching rays of the sun. You w ish now you had concluded to ride. Presently you fancy the end of the ascent, is in sight, and now you arc glad you imiked But you are deceived. Your supposed Ultima Thule is ouly it resting place; but when you reach it., you behold, sure enough, the true tusjUtts ultra far up in the distance, held by a parcel of saucy young Summertimes, waving their hats in triumph, and fresh as when they j started; while you, pantiug, breathless. | and disgusted, have yet. to co-op slowly up the ragged way, resolving while you live never to climb another mountain Iron) choice. Asheville was formerly the resort of gen tlemen of wealth and refinement from the. coast-of South Carolina, who with their families contributed all that was lacking towards making itoue of the most desirable of summer homes, Famous for its beautiful mountain scenery, its sparkling cold water —equal to anv ever quailed from “ the moss covered bucket that hung in the well"-- and near the celebrated French Broad, which, dashiug through mountain gorges, gives ail endless variety of all that, is wild, picturesque aud lovely in natural scenery—it was in days king syne the very home of health, freedom and plenty. The ordinary summer heat, is from 75 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit- seldom reaching, an it hau done once or twice this season, 84 The water is so delightful that one can almost believe that in the interior of these verdant mountains fairies and sprites indulge themselves in unlimited sherbets and ice-creams, with an occasional draught of Plumb’s arctic soda water; and that it is what, these well-to-do little elves leave that runs out for us in the form of the coldest and most dettrUonn qirtns-WHlw. 1 will not vouch for the philosophy, but 1 will for the wafer. Drops here and on the road are generally good The wheat lias been liar vested, but is not yet picpared for market, it is he'd at, *! per bushel. When to this you add chickens and eggs at about urn cents, it, is not surprising that good board may be had at from sls t.o S2O Anew enterprise has been started a few miles from town in the J'orm ol a large cheese factory, which is saul to be eminently successful. If is claimed 1 he.!, it will pay well at 15 cents per pound for the cheese, which now sells readily at Ob cents. The Seymour men are confident of Vic tory and working to achieve if.

We have asserted that he was, and re-asserl that he is engaged in tfcft disreputable and criminal business of pros tituting the power and patronage <4 lbs frauduleutly obtained oflice to defeat tha' ! will of the people of Georgia, and to dis grace them by electing to the United Btates ijeuate, two individuals whose very names are synonyms for treachery and infamy. He has given a ctf'rtu blanche to those, two wor thies to barter the oftx:,,. vyithiu his gilt, tin' the votes of the weak-kneed, Ully-Hver ed, slip ahoil creatures who are capable ot selling for a pri/ce, and who are always readv to “do iao dirty work the less vile refuse to do.” Dare ho deny it? The reso lution offered in the House y.eetsrday, if it passes, and wo hope ii will, will blip a fair opportunity to vindicate tiiinaoif from the charge. Send for persons and paisa s, and if wo are a party, impeachment and re from office will become the inevita ble duty of .Die Legislature.
