•J' AUGUSTA. GLA. ... ■— ■ ■,, SUNDAY MORNING. 00T. 30 1870 THE MAN ON HORSEBACK. Long ago, we were in the habit of pre dicting that the Man on Horseback, who marched with stunning plaudits South ward, wonll, some day or other, not very remote, turn his steed’s head Northward. It Is all coming true. New York city is to be turned into a barrack for regular troops on election day, and the ballot box is to be “ protected” with the bayonets of Ihe man who was hailed by War Demo crats and Radicals as the “ saviour of the life.” A satrap, f res# from his liwngia campaign, is to command the arm ed mercenaries, and a pettifogger turned Crown Officer, a Georgian by adoption and some time quartermaster on Gen. Toombs’ staff, is relied upon, for the civic im positions of the central tyranny. | Republican papers thus comment upon the matter: •'*?■ * [From the Tribune to-day. * “ The President has ordered three or four thousand troops to concentrate here pre vious ay- * * * The usual argument |n such instances is that’the presence®? troops will provoke a riot, and that they wlm ordered the troops were those Frho designed bloodshed. It is a very though it has often prevaileddwith the shallow-minded, and doubtless will in this case. jj [From the Rtandardfßpp} “ Washington, October .25'. —lu-conse- quence of the disposition to obstruct the peaceable enforcement ol' therecent election law of Congress manifested in New York the President has determined to concen trate all the available force of the army and marine corps to be placed at the dis position of the Federal officers of the civil service of fhalr place. This force will be ample to secure the arrest of all the offend ers and to enable the United States Mar shal «8d District Attorney to obey positive Instructions from the President to carry out the provisions of this law at all haz ards. “The command of this force will probably be given to Gen. Terry or Col. Mackenzie, so as to avoid the necessity of diverting Gen. McDowell from the duties of the commander of the department* “Attorney General Akerman’s presence fn the purpose of counsel and instruction to the end that no mistake may be made, and that everybody’s rights may be secured, amLAfceJaw at the same time rigidly enforceMßtr [ANOTHER DISPATCH.J “ Washington, October 25.—Although only one regiment of troops, the Eighth In fantry, has, up to this time, been ordered to New York, the President has arranged to bring all the troops in Philadelphia, New York, Boston aud Carlisle barracks into New Yorfc in a very few hours, if he sees any necessity for it. He has ordered all the available troops in the forts east of the Mississippi to rendezvous atNew York prior to the election in the State. All the available marines will also be sent there. “ Attorney General Akerman will proba bly go over to assist and advise the Dis trict Attorney fflbd United States Marshal during the last days of the registration.” The opposition journals have something to say, as follows. We quote a few of them: lFrom the Washington Telegram qf the Journal of Commerce. “ Washington, October 25. —The Presi dent lias ordered that all the available sol diers and.marines east of the Mississippi be sent to New York to sustain the Fed eral authorities in the enforcement of the Congressional Election act.” [Comments of Iho Journal of Commerce. “What the bad advisers who have per suaded the Chief Magistrate to this course can have in view, unless it be to prune down to more healthy proportions the over grown Republican majority in Congress, it is difficult to conceive. A community less law-abiding titan ours might be provoked to riot by the insulting menace; but if that be the alin of the President’s advisers, we are confident that it will utterly fail here.” If there were any real danger of such an event, the editor says, t|ie insignificant force which could be scraped together from the Federal garrisons would avail little against an ear uprising, but he remarks: “ The only result which seems to us like ly to come of this grand concentration of forces is a thorough disgust |with the poli ticians who ha vs directed it, and their peaceful but utter overthrow at the polls." [From the Star. “The presence of ilie Eighth or any other United States regiment in the city of New York is a certainty of 5,000 additional votes for Hoffman. We are not yet at the depth of degradation to which Grant has pushed some of our Southern Sta'es, and New York is not quile prepared to have United States troops sent here to interfere with her local elections.” r From the New York Express. “These troops are sent here from the South, among them the Bth U. S. Regiment from South Carolina—which has just been used to elect negroes to Congress, and to re-elect the State .government there, alter the manuer in Tennessee and North Caro lina, and the same reigment js now threat ening the white people of the North 1 “ And now a word or two to Gen. Grant & Cos. Three or four thousand are not enough to scare our population. Thiity or forty thousand at least are indispeusable to frighten. We have uniformed regiments enough hereto take of three or four thousand, if a fight is jhteuded. and, if ne cessary, 100,000 militia men can be poured into New York, who will obey the orders of the State. # “ Whatn are these United States troops put to I and we know that the whole soul and spirit of West Pointers revolts from doing this dirty work. These United States troops have been traveling in four negro States to en force negro supremacy, there at the ballot box, and now they are sent here to affright white Democrats, and to dragoon them into obedience. We do not wonder that white men are unwilling to enlist to do this dirty work in the army, and that the army is therefore with difficulty kept up, but we do wonder that any United States West Pointer stays in such an army, when many better fields are afforded him in the Engineering and Manufacturing Depart ments of our country. “ Will Gen. Grant never learn a bit of po litical wisdom ? Doesn’t he see how utterly vain were all his troops in Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee, and how uselessly interfering in Missouri against Carl Schurz and the Germans, in behalf there of the ne gro vote ? Doesn’t he see that the ouce formidable Ledwith-Mayor movement is now becoming reduced to nothing by the driving of our .white German and Irish population into one ballot box to vindicate their rights as naturalized citizens to vote, and to demonstrate their contempt of this movement of United States troops, one half of whom are Irishmen or Germans, and will not, therefore, fire ou their coun-\ trymen, while nearly the other half are ex rebels, enlisted from the Southern Confede rate armies? “ President Lincoln, tinder bad advice, sent here, during the war, Gen. B. F. Bnt ler, and practically superseded Gen. Dix, who would not do the vile work—and thereby the Democratic vote was all called out, and the majority largely increased. In lieu of this display of troops, the hard fisted, \r»e 1 * never worked better could be ddne for them thau this .salata ry excitement aroused by this military threat.”. H It is a pretty quarrel as it stands. We shall soon know the result. Quit® an Obstruction.— There is one great obstacle suggested concerning the' establishment of a Westminster Abbey In the Old Dominion, viz: every Virginian would think himself entitled to be there I * • ■■W Few men in America i|kve dei fied than Wendell Phillips. It Is fair to say that few men had :S © iHjgghpower to com pel such hero-worship as was thus lavishly bestowed. He waft, bF common consent, allowed to be the -Party." He gave them ideas, advanced the standard far In the front, planted it there, and waited for the jackal multitude to come panting ,up to his position. Then be would ad vance it again with si mi is r results. It Ms happened recently, however, that Wendell Phillips is not disposes! to endorse the party in every particular, but prefers to “ tote his own skillet” for a season. This is rank offense, and; as a matter of course, the jackals arc yelling from a place of safety at that audacious hyena—we wi.ll not say lion. He is, at this late day, found to be no prophet at all, no thinker at all nothing bnt a gaudy gabbler and a jug gler Os gilded words. Instead of crying forth like a prophet, we are now told that he brays like an ass or raves like a lunatic. He is even likened unto one Andrew Johnson, a comparison which must cut Phillips on the rawest nerve. He, is railed at as an original secessionist, as a reviler of the Constitutional compact, a justifler of the Southern revolt, etc., etc. The Boston Journal thus sums him up: ‘Mlfe utterly reject Mr. Phillips’ egotisti cal pretensions to political prophecy and leadership. His speeches, frqiu- ’time to time, hare delight#-his favdMes,' bnt they have never affected practical action, and they have had no effect on the general cur rent of national thought. For instance, he has practiced .and advocated the non-voting policy; and if he votes this year will pre sent the spectacle of withholding his vote for a quarter of a century until he lias be come himself a candidate i'er office.” It is all very well for the Rascal papers to abuse Mr. Phillips now that he is run ning an Independent schedule and lias en dorsed the great Mogul Grant. But he undoubtedly led the Republican party by the nose for many years, and has done more to debauch the youth of the North and de stroy popular liberty than a wilderness of Sumners. Presently the moderate men of the East and West will discover that they have followed other false gods beside Wendell Phillips. THE COLORED CADET. The “ speckled Mongolian ” at West Point, Smith by name, is in a peck of trouble. His Radical friends are weary of him, and the Chicago Tribune speaks for the whole gang as follows : “ Those familiar with the unwritten code of West Poiflt and cognizant of the solem nity attached by it to the veracity of a cadet in matters of the smallest as weti as the greatesKmoment, will understand lliaf. Cadet Smith, having twice, to the satisfac tion of his fellow-cadets, and once in the opinion of an impartial court, been guilty of falsehood, and being now formally ar raigned on a charge of similar import by General Upton himself, lias, according to the inflexible rule of personal honor ob served by the cadets, forfeited all light, to any personal consideration and companion ship in his class, and among the corps at large, however closely Ids official business may be respected.” The negro cadet business began in fraud and hypocrisy an 1 now ends in absurdity. Smith is not a representative black boy, aud so it was an imposition to thrust him forward as such. But Smith has only lied occasionally and must be punished. The beauty of it is that lie must be made a scapegoat of politicians who survive on lying and theft in a trooly loil way. Make way, then, for the colored Captain Jinks and “ kick him out of the array!” Jess So, Jkdge!— A bit of political scan dal concerning the English Mission is thus detailed by the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette : “ There is a very singular charge brought against Minister Motley. It is said he re fused to appoint a half-witted son-in-law (uot ids son—that is a mistake) of Secreta ry Fish as his Secretary of Legation, at the express request of the President. Upon this, a bullet-headed editor of one of the onrans remarks: “‘ In olden times, a Minister would have thought himself forever disgraced were he to hold office one lDstaut longer than lie believed himself agreeable to his Presi dent.’ “Just so. But does the fobl not know that both Grant and Stanton did this iden tical ‘ disgraceful ’ thing—aud does he not know that the' ‘tenure of office act’ is still vital?” Personal. —We are glad to welcome to the city Geu. D. M. Dußose, who has been chosen the standard-bearer of Democracy for the Fifth District of Georgi#. Gen. Dußosk is in the finest health and spirits, and, judging from the thoroughness and chivalry of Ills nature, armed at all points for the coming campaign. Gen. Terry. —lt is said that Gen Ter ry's success in reconstructing Georgia cau ed the President to select him to dra goon New York. The War Democracy are squealing already. The South.— Don Piatt writes to the Cincinnati Commercial: The wonderful energy exhibited by the Southern people in struggling up from the utter ruin that followed the late civil war is one of the marvels of the day. While contending against the blundering, unjust acts of reconstruction, origiuatiug in hate, and continued through greed, that deprived them of a voice and vote in laws now in volving the business interests of the entire country, the people have struggled man fully and with success to a certain extent to restore the national prosperity of their region. In this no aid whatever has been given by the General Government. On the contrary, its acts have been aggressive to the last extent, and it is no exaggeration to say that the Government at Washing ton has wrought more injury to the South since the war than it was able to effect during the conflict of arms. “It is the strangest folly that ever affected a blind people.” FOR SALE, HOOK AND LADDER TRUCK, COM PLETE, LADDERS, HOOKS, AXES of the Apparatus being in perfect order and good as new.

A World special, from London, says the neWs of the surrender of Metz is regarded peace negotiations, though Metz and Ba zaine were regarded by both parties as practically out of the, question, do refer ence'whatever having been made to them in the preliminaries. I have the following points of the proposition from the best au thority’: £F? Statu quo ante is to goverft all arrange ments looking to the possible resumption of the army. Both parties hold undisturb ed their present positions; Paris to receive day by day, one day’s supply of provis ions; all latitude to be given throughout the country to hold elections.” It is now stated Austria has received, the active support of England, who is warm ly backed by Italy. The foreign office lias intelligence that the authorities at Versailles accede to the demand, couched in diplomatic, but decided language from Great Britain and Russia, that Thiers have safe conduct to Paris. It is expected that an interview between Thiers and Trochn will decide the fate of negotiations for an armistice. Tours, October 29—(Official). —A dis patch from Bourg, 28th, says the Prussians were defeated near Bozaneo. They left 1,200 killed on the field. Many fled to Swit zerland, where they were disarmed. Bourbaki is very active. The authori ties here credit him with saving Amiens. Nothing official from Paris or Loire. 001. Wickerstein, Russian diplomat, has safe conduct from the Prussians, and will go to Paris. It is reported here that England desires a Congress of Powers. Amiens, October 28th.—The Prussians were defeated at Formiers. The Prussians burned Bonvvsse by petro leum shells. France still holds the railroad hence to Rouen.

Rouen, October 29.—The Prussians were pursued by French cavalry and hastily re treated upon Bean vote and Longson.— Chateau Neuf is also evacuated. Nashville, October 29.—The stockhold ers of the Memphis, Clarksville and Louis ville Road apply for an injunction against its sale. Mempuis, October 29.—Winners of the first race: Sauce Box; second, Kildare. The attendance large and betting heavy. Official information has been received here to the effect that Bismark is loth to entertain armistice propositions from Eng land. They should come from France, England has received no satisfactory re sponse to her overtures beyond that Thiers may come to Versailles and may possibly be allowed to go to Paris. New York, October |29.—The Kalians celebrated the unification of Italy, and lib eration of Rome from the Pope’s sway, by a grand concert, public meeting aud ball. W. C. Bryant addressed the meeting. Dr. Megi, of Boston, violently denounced Vic tor Emmanuel and eulogized Garibaldi and Mazzini, and hoped for a republic. These sentiments offended Gen. De Luca, Italian consul, who protested and was with diffi culty prevented from retiring. Nothing else marred the harmony of the meeting. Wheeling.

Journals announce that Gen. Cambriel has been compelled to relinquish his com mand in the army of the East because of the reopening of the wound received at Sedan. A statement is extensively published in Prussian and English journals that the Government of France desired the French officers who had been captured to break their paroles is pronounced a calumny. The telegraph wires having been cut ma liciously near Orleans, the Prussians have exacted an additional tax upon the town by way of punishment. In nearly all the departments now held by the Prussians, influential citizens are compelled to ride on locomotives. The Prussians have adopted this course, which they say is the Only wav to prevent the tearing up of tracks by French non-com battants.

Wheeling, Oc Writer 29.—Incomplete re turns from 20 counties, embracing two thirds of the State, show a large Demo cratic gain, enough to warrant the an nouncement that the State has been car ried by the-Democrats by a small majority. Republicans concede a defeat. The Demo crats elect two Congressmen—the First and Third. Districts—and by large gains will be able to contrbl the Legislative, which elects a soccesssor to Willey.

BLEAKLKr. j- Bt?-WHILE EMOTIONS PERISH, THOUGHT blended in diction is immortal, such will be the list of those cured by the use of the OLD CAROLINA BITIERS. The OLD CAROLINA BIT! Etta have been thoroughly tested, and found invaluable as an Appe t z.r and Tonic—none better to be had. OCtSO-SUWfAC A CHAPTER OP PACTS, SPACE IS VALUABLE IN A NEWSPAPER, and it is therefore proposed in this advertisement to condense a variety of facts, important to the public, into a small compass. Those facta refer to Hostet ler's Stomach Bitters—what that celebrated medicine is, and what it will do. In the first place, then, tho article is a stimulant, tonic and alterative, consisting of a combination of an absolutely pure spirituous agent, with the most valuable medicinal vegetable substances Ibat Botanic research has placed at the disposal of the chemist and of the ph> sician. These ingredients are compounded with great care, and in such proportions as to produce a preparation which invigorates without exciting the general system, and tones, regulates and contro's the stomach, the bowels, the liver and the minor secretive organs. What this great restorative will do must be gather ed from what it has done. The case of dyspepsia, or any other form of indigestion, in which it has been persistently administered without effecting a radical cure, is yet to he heard from, and the same may he said of bilions disorders, intermittent fever, nervous affections, general debility, constipation, sick hea4* ache, mental despondency, and the peculiar com plaints and disabilities to which the feeblo are so subjects. It purifies all the fluids of tho body, tm eluding the blood, and the gentle stimulus which it imparls to the nervous system is not succeeded by the slightest leaction.
