UOIaUMBUffi* 0A.I WEDNESDAY AUGUST 0, 1874. JOHN H. MARTIN, • • • Editor. «rxo tmcBimoi ucuui unless PAID FOR IX ADVANCE. Mr. Chablei H. Markham i« the agent ter Jho ^t^rfrjuSuff for Muscogee and Uumell counties. He la authorised to nolieit and subscriptions, and to reoeipt for tho same. We oommend him as a gentUman in every way worthy of eonfldfencfe. A good price will be paid at this office fort he traroher* of the Sunday Enquirer containing the story, “In Othor Lands,' which recently appeared. The discovory of a new teleaoopie oom- et, in the constellation Draco, is an nounced from Marseilles, France; and Prof. Swift, of Rochester, N. Y., says that he h*a found it, but he has not cal culated its movement yet. The Radical Convention of Elmore county, in the 3d District of Alubauia, met the other day and appointed delegates to their District Convention favorablo to the renomination of Pelham for Congress. Pelham will probably be nominated, bnt the white votes that he will get will be very scattering. Alabama haa a farm worked by some of her Penitentiary convict#. It is an nounoed that this farm will this yearprob ably make 30,000 budials of corn and 100 bales of c itton ; bnt wo aro not informed whether it will be self-supporting with this production. If it is, it is the beat managed institution under Radical rule in that Stats. Dcbino one of the election squabbles between the negro partisans of Pinch- back and Packard in New Orleans, on Saturday evening, a negro nauiod Allen Harris was stabbed and killed by another named Dupost, and the latter made his oaoapo. As the row whs “all in the fami ly,” the election was of course peaceable and orderly. We direct attention to an interesting letter from a Htewart county correspon dent ou the subjeot of Rnst on Cotton We know that our correspondent, in bis conclusion that it is a living animtdcular concretion, is sustained by Mr. C. A. Pen body and other scientific farmers. We liopo that planters will consider what ho says about the poke weed, as well as his inquiry whether Paris Green or some other destroyer might not be employed against rust. Wk learn from n dispatch of the 2d inst. from Boston, that a party of Mas sachusetts Kn-klux, at Oak Bluff in that State, undertook to tar and feather one H. K. Elliott of Worcester, who was living with women of bad character at Oak Bluffs, and that Elliott drew bis pistol and shot Caleb Smith, one of tbo party, and brothor of ouo of tho women, dead. Elliott theu made bis escape from them and sur rendered to tho authorities. But the ex citement against him was very Ligb, and he may bo Ku-kluxed yot, with rope in stead of tar nml feathers. Senator Morton, in a speech delivered at Terre Haute, ludiann, on Friday, de clared that President Grant had by no word or act given oounteuanoe to the im pression that he would voto the Civil Rights bill. Hu aaid that he “repelled w.th indignation the suggestion that ihe President will prove false to the princi ples of the Repnblioan party." If Mor ton is correct in this, our people will an derstand that they must exert themselves to the utmost to defeat this measure. It ia, at all events, premature to take the measure of our “gratitude" to Grant. OAtIT SMITH. It was announced some weeks ago that Ibis colored cadet had failed to aland the examination at West Point, and would have to leave ihe iaetitolion. This, after the flourish that had been tilde «Arer faM superior capacity, was rathe# sutprisioM especially in view of the lack that this was the first oase in which a negro had attempted to go through such an examin ation, and that bia anoceas ia anxiously looked for by some as affording proof of the capacity of bis race to compete with the whites in mental training and discipline. But Smith failed, and some of the ultra negre adorers of the Radical party raised the cry that he waa unjustly dealt with on Recount of bis ooier~ooUiit belauding the loth Amendment, the Enforcement eot and the Civil Bights bill. Smith him self shared, or pretended to share* in this feeling, and asked of the Secretary of War a new examination. This the Secretary has refused, and so the flratcolored cadet, failing in his ambitions aspirations, falls back in disgrace, and a big black mark of inoompetenoy ia aoored against his race. Smith distinctly charges, in a commu nication to the Nutiomd lien A’ro, that “the report made against him waa aqt for dofioienoy, but in aooordanoe with a suggestion from high authority not to allow him to graduate, and thereby sevc the Wer Department the onerous task of finding a suitable assignment in the ermy where he would be welcomed by the white officers as an offioer and a gentlemen." Why should a negro candidate for a ca detship at West Point, with a prospective commend in the army, !»e treated unfair- ly. especially by a party professing to be the especial friend of the negro rsoe ? We oanoot eey positively that this has boon done, bat Smith and some of bis friends say that it haa; and therefore the inquiry ia pertinent. The New York World makes e suggestion on this point wbioh is probably correot. Itaayathat if Smith waa nu fairly treated, “Ihe case ahows that whatever may be done in Stok ing negroes voters and participators In government; whatever may be done by Civil Rights bills in forcing them into so cial equality with tho whites; whatever tbe fanaticism or the good nature of indi vidual may do towards the removal of all distinctions on aooount of color, there is one institution in the coontry—namely, the army—into which they oannot bo received, aud in which they cannot be put ou a par with white gentlemen. Law may be ever so atriugeot, hut if a law woiks a mutiny or luminous tendencies in an army, it oannot be executed. Tbe law ia Cadet Smith’s case ia plain enough, if he were really entitled ou a fair examina tion to be graduated. But be ia rejected; and as there has boon no offloial publica tion of his record, and as he complains of the result, aud charges that the Secretary of War haa treated him harshly by telling him that he “wont" order a new examina tion, ihe public is left to infer that he has been rejected because the Secretary has become satisfied that insubordination and disturbauoe would follow in any regiment to wbioh he might be assigned. If this is the true state of the oase it settlas the question of colored officers in tbe Army of the United States. The election in Kentucky on Monday was only for a Clerk of the Conrt of Ap peals on the 8:atu ticket, also for Circuit Judges aud county officers—not for a Governor, Congressmen or Legislators. Thomas C. Jones, who has been elected Clerk of Appeals, us we are advised by telegraph, was a Confederate uffljor, and the Rndicals claim that he is ineligible nuder the Stato law against duelling. If they ran a candidate against him at all, their man was brought out just before the election. But they will doubtless make a cose contesting Jones' election on the ground of iueligibility. The “hitch" in the Beeoher-Tilton in vestigation seems to be on tbe question of precedence in making atatemeuts. The Tribuna, of the 1st inst., says that the committee uffiem that “the letters in Moulton’s possession must be produoed and compared with the extracts in Mr. Tilton’s statement before Mr. Beecher can be asked to explain them; and com plain that Mr. Moulton cannot be found, aud that their requests for the originals of the letters receive uo notice." It ia hard for outside ainnera to under stand irhy Mr. Beecher should delay re plying to Tiltou’s atatemont, if he only mouua to “explaiu" the letters quoted from by Tilton, aud not to douy their genui loughs. la he waitiug to aeo wheth er it will bo boat for him to deny or to ei- plaiu ? Georgia Mining Newh.—Tbe Dahlon- ega Signal of Saturday gives good reporta of rniniug operations in its vicinity. All the mills are running regularly, with sat isfactory results. A company have com menced deposit mining on tbo Yobola, wotkiug live hands, with a bailing wheel and aluice boxes. The testa on slate show six grains of gold to one shovel-fnl, which ia considered very good. The Sig. nal moutioua a number of ftue nuggets found—one weighing 14 dwt. and 4 grains, found near Dahlonega; auother of 11 dwt., in same vicinity; and a piece of qnartx from Buttle Branch, about the aise of a heu’a egg, fully one-half of wbioh waa gold.

For tha Eaquiaam-Bu* HON. MARTIN J. CRAWFORD FOR CON tiREVki The time for our Congressional elec tions is approaohiog. The nominating convention for this district will soon meet. Who shall be our standard bearer f This in an important matter—at all timet im portant—bnt never more so than now. The times are out of joint, fearfully and alarmiugly so. The Federal Government haa become venal, extravagant, and cor rupt beyond all precedent. Since the close of the war these Confederate States bavo been treated as conquered provinces, and the people thereof as aliens and ene mies by the Central Gavernmant. They have been forced by that central power to yield obedienoe to laws that were degrad ing, oppressive, aud disgraceful to the name of free government; and by tha same central power 8tate governments have been oreated, and by military power foroed upon us nuder tbe gaiae of reonu- atructioii, aud the high places in these governments have been filled, through torce aud fraud, by men who were unfit to rule over a free people, and by men who were aliens in sentiment and interest. Aud these things have been done under the Holernu mockery of a free election. perienos to redress thorn.

We are all an board the seme ship, end ■net sink or swim together; and, there fore, let us put none bnt evperlenoed pilots on board during these tempestuous times. It Is for ns—the people, tbe voters and tax-payera—to take these matters into oar own bands aod select onr own agents. Now sad forever we reject end repudiate tbe idea that any man bas any claim/ upon ns for any offlae. We pay an agent to serve ns, end we have e right te select tbe one who oan best serve ns. Let ns not delude ourselves with the idea that e nomination is equivalent to an election. The two partiee are nearly equal in this diatrict, and we mnat have a candidate who ean concentrate tbe entire party; and we know of no man around whom tbs voters Would rally with more unanimity and enthusiasm than around Judge Crawford. We will not say one word going to dis parage in tbe least degree tbe merits or talents of any one of the young gentle men whose names have been mentioned in this oonneotion. We have a use for them all with all tbeir ability. In onr Htate Legislation we need man of charac ter, of honesty and ability, to oomplete tbe work of regeneration and purifica tion. In conclusion, we do hereby nominate tbe Hon. Uartin J. Crawford, as a candi date for Congress in this distriet, subject to tha ratification of tbe Convention wbenavas it meets. We know that Jadge Crawford la not seeking the office; and we further knew that if nominated, he does not, could not, and would not decline it. Ws, thx Pboflx. Vicxanuno.—Tbe New York Herald publishes a long letter from Vioksbnrg, giving an aoconnt of the origin and pro gress of tbo “difflonltiea" there. Accord ing to this statement tbe negroes and white Radicals have foil* rated tbe city, and have greatly embarrassed it by debt and taxes—tbe debt now amonntiug to oae-tlxtb of the valne of tbe taxable property, and tbe taxee to 6} per oenb For some time pact the negroes have been obtaining arms from tbe Htate for military oompaales which they have formed in tbe oily, and tbeir drills were ap./te^uent aa to present a oonataut mil itary preparation. They have also been very iqsnlting to tbe white", often driving tbe ladies from the side-walks. Tbe whites, peroeiving that the negroes were making armed preparation for the oity eleotion, also commenced organizing quite recently, and then oame tbe demand from Jackson for tbe disarming of the military companies—a proceeding which the whites were willing to oarry out, bnt the negroes would not. The speech of Davenport, to whioh we have heretofore alluded, added fuel to the fire. Nearly all the whitea who have heretofore aoted with the negroes ee Radicals deserted them and took tbair stand with tbeir own It beoame evident that with a fair eleotion the Democrats would triumph, and thia increased the anxiety of the ne groes and of the State authorities for inter vention by the Federal military. All waa comparatively quiet at last aoeonnte, bnt before the organisation of the white oom- peniea the negroes drilled daily, end every day marched through all the streets of the city ia armed aqaads. ■HP CALL FOR A CONVENTION or Tint Democrats of Muscogee!

Thanlu to that atarnal race i » nd th » l ueceaaarily engenders the bitterest feeling of noatility between them end the North. Owing tbeir emancipation to them, they could regard them ee friends, guardian! and patrons, and cen tre, accordingly, all their sympathy in them. The people of tbe North would not fail to reoiprocate, and to favor them instead of the whitea. Uuder the influ ence of suoh feelings, and impelled by fanaticiam and love of power, they wonid not atop at emancipation. Another step would be taken to raise thorn to politioid aud social equality with their former owners by giviug them a right of voting and holding public officea uuder the Fed eral Government. “We see the first step towards it in tbe bill already alluded to—to vest the few blacke and slaves with the right to vote on Ihe question of emancipation in thia dmtriet. But when once raised to au equal ity they could become the fast political associates of the North, sating aud voting with them on all questions, aod l>y this political union between them holding the white race at the Bouth in complete sub jection. The blacks and the profligate whitea that might unite with them could become tbe principal recipients of Fed eral offioes aud patronage, aud would in ooosequeoee be raised above tbe whitea of the Booth in the political and social acalo. “We would, in a word, change condi tions with them—a degradation greater than has yet fallen to the lot of a frea and enlightened people, and one from whioh we ouuld not eeca|>e should emancipation take place (which it certainly will if not prevented) bnt by fleeing the homes of onrseivas and of onr ancestors, and by abandoning onr oonotry to oar former slaves, to become the permanent abode of disorder, anarohy aod wretchedness." vigiianoe, which is said to ba tha price of Liborty, onr own Htate Govern ment has been partially redeemed and regenerated, bnt much yet re mains to lie done to fully restore and purify our own Btate Government in all its departments. And there is still a greater work for us fo do, in onoe more restoring to tbe Empire Stete of the Boath her ancient fame and power end influence in connection with tbe Federal Govern ment. And if we are only true to onr- selvea, aud true to tbe memory of our departed statesmen, ihe encient renown of our own great Btate will once more be restored in tbe oouncils of tha Central Government. But how is all thia (o be done ? We snaaer, promptly nnd confidently, it into bo done by at once bringing to the front the eery ablest men in all the State. We have such men. Tbe great men of the State are not all dead. True, for many years some of them, by reason of onjnat and iufamous laws, have been diefran- obi»cd and denied tbe right of taking any part in the administration of tha Govern ment. Bui now they are u nchaintd, their disabilities have been removed, and we demand iheir services. And let them oorne to the front! In onr judgment Judge Crawford ia one of these men. He ia without fattsrs now; be is uuohained; he ia of rips aga; he has had six yssrs’ experienes in the Con gress of the United States; and many abla men were there then, and among such men ha then ranked high as a man of ability and influence.

When mtdionl falsehood is bold, unblushing, unpunished, and tri umphant, medical truth requires higher testimonials. As different invalids oredit different clessee of testimony, we propose to secure Iheir oredenoe by pubiiabiog various kinds of testimony whioh operate ou the human mind to prodace convio- tion. As it is the basiooHs of phyeioiaos to study diseases and their remedies, theirs is ths highest testimony in favor of any curat ve agent. The introduction of tha Gottysbnrg Katalysine water as a oommeroial drag, rendered national those medical experi ments with ite waters wbioh had previous ly been local, or oonfined to tbe resident invalids in the violnity of tho spring. Mauy eminent mediosl writers and prao- lioiug physicians watobed with deep in terest tbe progress of these medical ex periments, fraught with such incalculable interest to humanity and to medloal sci ence. The result of their observations they commnnicated to tbe medical jour nals. It would too greatly prolong this com munication to make quotations from all tbe medical journals and mediosl writera who have commented npon tbe mediosl experiments with this water. We will, therefore, only make quotations trom one of the medical journals and from one of the medical writers, who is recognized ea n authority on mineral watera : Testimony or Medical Journals. The New York Medical Ileeord, in two editorial articles, entitled “Onr Becently Discovered Mineral Waters," and “The Gettysburg Katalysine Wafer,” reviews with muoh ability the praotioal experi ments with the latter. It remarks : Our experience in the nee of this val uable water confirms the oonolnaione stated by Dr. John Bell, of Philadelphia, that it is a very useful remedy in chronic disorders of the digestive organa, and tbe secondary derangements, such as goat, rheumatism, hepatio and rhenal affections, skin diseases, dco., consequent thereon. We have good reason also to believe from what wo have seen and experienced, that it will liy long use remove nodosities of tha joints of a gonty natnro. We have also seen eases of albuminuria muoh relieved by it, aa well aa tha irrita- Iflo bladder of old age and oalonlns diaor- lera of tho litliio aoid diathesis. * * We have been incredulous in regard to this water having any aooh power as rep resented by Drs. John Bell, B. H. Hell, and other mediosl writers, of dissolving the urat t or chalk formations in the body, or on limbs and joints—a power unknown to any other mineral watar in the United Btates, so far aa no are in formed. * * From experiments made on our own person as well as others, wa oan state that the Gettysburg Water is a regnlator of all the secretions and excre tions; under its influence tbe kidneys end liver, the glands of the intestinal canal and the Bkin all perform their normal functions; the bowels, it oonstipatod, beoame regnlar; the skin, if dry, becomes rnoiBt; the torpid liver is excited to healthy action, and tbe kidneys perform tbeir functions with perfeot regularity. There is a total absence of any disagreea ble sensations whatever; tha eis medico- trix seems roused to increased activity, and all morbid oausas of bodily, or even mental disorder, seem rapidly to pus sway. Tbe result is: Increased appetite and digestion, a freer oironlatlon, a stranger pnlse, a calmer mind, a more tranquil sleep, a dearer complexion, and au iuoreasing nervous and mnaenlar powey. * * Where gonty or rbenmatio persons are taking tbe water, wo find an extraordinary quantity of nrio acid score. ted or deposited from tha nrine; the sweat no longer contains this prinoiple in excess, as it generally does in goaty sub jects; aud, with proper attention to regi men and diet, tne health rapidly im prove", distorted limbB beoome straight ened and enlarged joiuts gradually re duced to their natural size." Medical Authors. Doctor Bell, tbo author of a standard medical work entitled “The Mineral Springs of tbe United States and Canada,” bas prepared a paper on the Gettysburg Katalysine Springs, from which quote : “Tbo Gettysburg Water has produced signally curative and restorative effects in different forms of Dyspepsia, Sioknesa of the Stomaoh, Heartburn, Waterbrazh, Acnto Nenrulgio Pains, Loss of Appetite, Chronic Dinrrbcea, Torpid Liver, Gout, Cbronic Uhematism, Nodosities of the Joints, Approaching and Aotnsl Paralysis, Diabetes, Kidney Disease, Gravel, Chron- io Dyspepsia, Abdominal Dropsy, Ep ilepsy, do., &o., &o.” Tbe Sea Power la Medicine. He also remarks of its solvent effects npon ihose forms of calculus known as the chalk-stones, lnmpe or nodosities of rheumatism and gout; “Were we to suppose thsee swellings to be ligamentous, or cartilaginous, with bouy matter deposited, onr surprise at tbeir disappearance would be none tbe less, liecourse to all known tharapenli- oal agents and modes of treatment, are ineffectual beyond sometimes a reduction of tha alas of tha nodes of a gonty or rhemnatlo na ture by absorption of a part of tho outer and investing strootnre.
