The only newa of any interoat concern
ing the cauvaaa for CongraHftionel noinina
tion*, which we have to-day, ia the «ith-
drawal of Gul. J. B. Eaten in tbe Ninth
Diatriot. Thia leave* only Meaara Hill
and MoMilUn in the field in that DUtrict.
Aa Meaara. K*tea and McMillan live in tbe
name part of the Diatiiot, we presume that
the withdrawal of tbe former euurea to
the benefit of the lattor. But a« tbe nom
ination in that Diatriot waa to have been
made in Cleveland yeaterday, we ought to
hear from it in a day or two.
Thb Montgomery Journal aaya that the
Georgia law requiiiug tbe payment of
taiea aa a qualification to vote ia “a de
vice to complicate the exerciae tiy the ne
gro©* of the right of auffrage." TheQeor
gia requirement iu thin re peot ia a oou-
atitutioual ono, and waa made ao by a
thoroughly Radical Convention; and it
appliea to white men and negroea alike.
Tbe matter with tbo Journal evidently ia
that it ia disgruntled because tbe nogro
can't exerciae all tbe rigbta and powera of
a oitlsan without performing any of tha
public dutiea of a ti ixou. Tbat'a what
they do in Alabama, but in Ooorgia wa
connect the right and the duty—that'a all
tha difference.
Thb steamer Henry Am ©a, from St.
Louie to New Oileana, keeled and par
tially aunk in the Miaaiaaippi river, a
abort diaUnce above Nmchex, on Friday
night last. She waa loaded to the guarda
with grain, pork, flour, Ao., and wan leak
ing several d*ya before tbe disaster, | or-
tiona of her cargo being thrown over
board to lighten her. Finally abe ca
reened ao that ono wheel waa entirely out
of wator, and the ptaaengera and crew
took to the boat* to reach laud, the steam
er being unmanageable. The first boat
wan overloaded and aunk, and about fif
teen lives were loat. Among them, it is
known, were a womao, a child, five
“roustabout*" aud three Chinese. Tha
officers were all aaveJ. Other steamers
finally took off the remaining paaaengers.
A© was anticipated, the Democratic Con
vention in ltaudolph county failed to bar-
mouixe the Tuuiliu and anti- Tumlin fac
tions of th* party. Two of the diatnca
had eleoted Tuin'iu, aud three anti-Tutn-
lin delegate*, and two were in diapate.
When the convention met Mr. Davis was
oalled to the ohair, and he made a ruling
that did not please the Tumlin deli*g*tia,
and they called Mr. Smith to tbe chair.
He took a otair and sat by the regular
chairman. A motiou was put to him de
claring Tumliu nomiuated, and the Tuui
liu men adjourned. The rest of the meet
ing, uuder their regular chairman, theu
nomiuated Edwards. It is su uuforiut.aie
aplit, aud ought by nil uiettus to tie be b
ed. Tbe D. moorats have no Votes to
spire iu Raudolph.
Wa made a little oulcu alion, a few days
ago, ou tbe agricultural statistics of
Houston cou-ity, to show the fallacy of
the proposition that too rnuob corn had
been raised in some parts of Georgii
and that it would not command more
than fifiy cents per bushel next winter.
In our estim ite we put the average pro
duction of corn per acre at 13 bushels,
and lbowed that ibis would not yield uior
than euough corn for the use of the
country. The Perry Home Journal tikes
tbe tax assessor's statistU-a aud flgurea
out that tha supply will not be sufficient,
but it estima'es the yield at only leu
bushels to the acre. The Journal says:
“We oalculate that tha average quantity
of corn consumed i. the oounty ia 420,-
000 bushel*, of whioh heretofore about
150,000 bushels have been brought from
th* Went. Thia year the qnanti'y bought
will probably nut exoeed 75,uo0 buebsU,
and from tbe beat iuformatiun we o*u
gut, by tbe etrioteat economy, diligence
in raising forage crops, and good manage
meat generally, Houston county will out
need iu 1875 over 85,000 bushels of West
ern ooro, probably none."
WHAT MM Iff
There ia s pretty general recognition,
by the Radical press of the North, of tbe
fact that it was tha “Civil Rights" agita
tion that caused such overwhelming tri
umphs by tha white men in the late elec
tiona iu North Carotin*, Tennessee and
Kentucky. We say by the white men,
because tt would be unfair to claim a
strict Democratic triumph where ao large
a proportion of white liepnblioans voted
with tbe Democrats. The issues present
ed were snob aa to invite and urge a divi
sion according to races, and every Cauca
sian who feels pride in bis lineage, it*
superiority and its achievements, out loose
from tbe weaker tie* of party and took
position with hia race. Of coarse we m
except the few who associate with IBs
negroes for tbe sake of office, and with
whom cffi.ie ia tha first aspiration. Even
these may l>e awakened to a sense of duty
by the strength whioh this inme ia giving
to the Democratic party—by their immi
nent danger of losing both social standing
and offi :e by a persistence in their unnat
ural party associations.
Would that we could report aa ganeral
a conviction by tbe Hadioal party of the
North that they must drop the Civil Rights
agitation to save their party. But we see
no auch expression yet. On the contrary,
w# find even the New York Tribune as
serting that the arraying of the white peo
ple of the South on one side will re-kiodle
the old feeling at the North and re-nnite
tbe Republican party thereI The plain
Eugl ah of this is that the Republican par
ty of the North insist* on re-origanixing
society at the South and will aiok every
thiug else in tbe effort to establish here
a tyrauuy snob a* has no parallel in mod
ern history, it would uot be surprising if
even these defeats at the 8ou ih should exss-
p*r«te the Radical Congressmen to hurry
mrough the Civil Rights bill daring the
last three moat he of their party rule, and
leave it saddle J upon the country as a
legacy of hate and mischief, to be execut
ed by parties opposed to the measure.
It ia telegraphed from Washington that
Supervisor Ferry, of North Carolina, had
arrived at the national capital on his way
to hi - home in Maine, aud had reported
ihit “it was the Civil Rights bill that
killed the Republican party in North Car
olina." A<id what remedy did he pro-
po-e? He aaked tbe establishment of
“military post*" in those parts of the
State in which illicit distillation ia car
ried oo, beoaUMe he fears that the Demo
cratic victory will encourage distillation
without liconse! Now it happens that io
North Caroliua, aa in Georgia, the Hec.
tiona of tbe State iu which illicit etilla
abound are tbe very aectiona in whioh
white Radical* aia > ahouuri, and there
fore “military pDMta” established there
can at oue and tbe same time look
after tbe unlawful stills and the rebellious
white B dioals who oan't aland negro so
cial equality. Happy coincidence! Can
General Graut neglect ao good an oppor
tunity to “kill two birds with one atone"?
He hue boon negleoling, of late, to
'plsao" troopa wherever Radical politicians
w«nt<d them sent to overawe the people
of the Booth, and possibly he may be
guilty of similar neglect In tbis instance.
Tie pith of duty and safety to the
white people of the South ia now too
plain to be miataken. It ia to follow up
vigorously and manfully the blows struck
by their brethren in North Carolina, Ken
tucky an 1 Tennessee. Wo can make the
next Congress a very different one, in its
animn* towards tbe Boutb, from the pres
ent ; and wo cau now, by union among
ourselves, secure the right kind of State
Government*, on wbioh,alter all, depends
the accomplishment of the reforms that
will promote onr material prosperity and
give u* politioal power in tha and.
Tha Meat I *g •atardaf
Editor Enquirer-Sun: Borne are now
exceedingly auxioua that no “committed"
delegates are sent to the Congressional
Convention, yet three or four countiea
have, aooordiug to a certain definition,
aeut “committed" delegates and requested
them to vote a oertain way, and we hear
no outory. The delegates referred to are
for Col. Harris, and if tha majority of the
people iu the counties they represent are
for Col. II., the requestor iuatrnction ia
right, and any other aotion would violate
the very meaning and etymology of the
word 4 delegation." What, pray, dooa it
mean ? Two, four, half a doxen men, aa
the case may be, to whom ia delegated the
power of expressing the wish of tha peo
ple sending them. Now, if it ia a griev
ous wrong to ascertain by some method
the choice of Muncogee oounty aud to
send delegatus expressing that choice,
why is it that something has not been
said before this time in condemnation of
the counties referred to?
The just and equitable plan, and one
much rnoie Democratic than that sug
gested by the person calling himself
“Duuiojrats," ia for the peop e, ou next
Sitmdty, to express their choice (if any
they havej aud then to select a delegation
acjoidiugy. That would not ba sending
men “committed beforehand," bnt send
ing ibe servaut* of their owu wishes. If
“o *uj untied,” they are committed by what
the peop e do thimselves. This plan ia
adopted over the whole Bute, and other
plans are usually iut< n led uot to carry out
the wishes of the people, but to defeat
Hem.
This plan waa thought by Cols. Bland
ford aud Fou aud their advising friends
to be right and just while Col. Blaudford
was a candidate, and they all thiuk so still
Muhoookx.

LETTEB FROM NORTH ALABAMA.
Madison County, Ala.,»
August 3, 1874. j
To the Editor oj the Enquirer:—I
am spending a few weeks in the beautiful
valley of the Tennessee, and I see so
much that interests me, that I thought
and perhaps it might not fail to be of in
terest to some of your many readers. Tbe
plaoe of my sojourn is eight miles south-
weal of Huntsville, and fonr miles north
of tbe Teuneeaee river. The geograph
ies! position of thia valley is each as to
render it beautiful in the extreme. It
stretches in one unbroken line for seven-
ty-flve miles to the south, end will aver-
age one mile wide. It ia so level here
that I oan stand in my boat’s front yard
aud see uearly four hundred sores in one
field under cultivation, and by riding
seven miles a few days since I aaw in one
unbroken view 1,000 sores in cotton and
ooru. The soil here ia of a deep radish
brown, of tbe Silurian formation. The
same aa ia found in the rioheet puts of
Tenueaaee, and the blue grata regions of
Kentooky, aud ia naturally suited to the
production of clover, grain and tbe grass
es. Its natural fertility ia wonderful.
Aa an instance of thia an
old geutlemau who owus one
of tbe largest adjoining plantation*
told me that tha beat cotton on hia place
was on a piece of land that he had seeu in
cotton in 1810, and which baa been in
coastent cultivation ever since. Earth
thrown out of ditches and wells, after
having bean exposed to the ameliorating
influences of the atmosphere for a short
while, will produoe a crop of any thing
equal to the best land*. Wnite clover is
an indigenous product of the soil. The
water here ia exoellant, being what ia
generally known aa “blue limestone
water," and ia several degrees colder than
the water about Columbus. Besides the
splendid well water, every plaota’ion ba*
from one to a doseu fine, bold springs on
it. 1 notice a great difference in the
nights here and at home. It is so cool
her# at night that I invariably aleep uuder
oover. Crop* are very good aa a general
thing. The farmers a*y that they have
the poorest crop of corn that they have
hid since the war, but it looks so much
better than anything in the way of corn
crops that I have been used to seeing,
that I think it ia fine.
The great desideratum here ia white
men. The plantations contain from 500
to 2,000 acres of land, and on at least one*
bulf of them there are nobody but ne
groes. Tbe greater part of the land about
here sold originally, at Governmant sale,
for from thirty to forty dollars per acre.
Now splendid lands that will produce from
six to ten barrel* of corn (five bushels per
barrel) per sore can be bought from ten
to twenty dollars per sore. Corn is now
selling for one dollar per bushel. Last
Christmas the negroes sold their crop at
from forty to fifty cents per buahel. I
find the uegro here just as much “nigger"
aa elsewhere, and, in one instance, a little
more ao.
A negro who lived on a neighboring
plantation, while crossing afield daring a
storm, was struck dead by lightning. It
waa aeveral days before he was found, and
when he wan, not a negro would touch
him, but left him iu a perfectly uude con
dition (bis garments were oonsumed by
the lightning), exposed all day to tbe piti-
leas rays of a July tun; nor ia thia all, aa
they left him in the day, ao did they also
at uight leave him to be partly detoured
by dogs, while they engaged in one of
their hellish night meetinga, the hideous-
ness of which can be compared to nothing
but that of an Iudian war dance.
I intended to have said something of
Huutsville and the mountain of Montana-
no, but I have already enoroaobed upon
your valuable apaoe.
I am, very respectfully,
F. D. O.

The Charlotte (North Carolina) Ob
server :
Rumor* were current on the streets yes
terday thu Generd D. H. Hill, of the
Southern Home, had been arrcNted in
Sooth Carolina for libel. The facta, as
we hive ascertained them, are that Lieut.
U. U. Beuner, of tbe Eightceuth Infan
try, stationed at Yorkvule, went to Bethel
Church, in York oounty, one day last
week, to arrest General Hill, he having
understood that tbe General would de
liver an addreas at Bethel on that day.
General Hill had no appointment
at tbe place for that occasion,
and besides, waa sick in bed at
home when Benner went with his
posse to arrest him. The alleged lihel
was certain comments in tbe Stuthem
Home noon the presentment of tbe grand
UMAVM-Jtimiff.
The Atlanta Herald, of Tuesday, pub-
liabee the following letters of Gen. Joe.
E. Johnston and Gen. Wade Hampton, in
whioh the latter gentleman states that
Geo. R. E. Lee was strongly opposed to
the removal of Gan. Johnston from the
Army of Tennessee, and that Gen. Lee
bad great confidence in Gen. JohuHtou as
an army commander. The Herald says
tbe letters are a moat valuable and impor
tant contribution to the unwritten history
of the war, and Gan. Colquitt's absence
from tbe city baa prevented earlier atten
tion to the matter:
OKH. JOSEPH E. JOHNBTOM’S LETTEB.
Savannah, Ga , June 22, 1874.
Gen. A. If. Colquitt, President Georgia
Branch Southern Historical Society:
Dear Sir—In bis oration before your
institution, the Hon. B. H. Hill intro
duced the subject of my removal from
the command of tbe army near Atlanta,
in July, 1884. He described the Preni-
dent ea strongly opposed to tbe measure,
and aaid that be expressed a high opinion
of me aa e General. It ia not for me to
attempt to reconcile hi* Excellency's
action with auch an opinion; nor to de
cide which of the two ia most probably a
correct exponent of the President’s opin
ion, himself or the Hoo. Mr. Hill. Nor
ia it a matter of concern to me whether
tbe President was controlled in this meas
ure by hia own opinions, or those of the
eminent persons to whom tbe orator re
ferred without naming them. He gave,
however, a principal plaoe among these
advisers to General Lee. Being too weak
to be*r such a weight aa that of Gin.
Lee * condemnation, I relieve myse f
from it, or liibilUy to it, by tbe following
letter from one whose eminence a* a gen
tleman, ao dier and civilian, make* his
testimony conclusive.
Aa Mr. Hill'a allegations were published
by yon and are, I believe, a part of your
arebieves, I respectfully ask that thi* pa
per m*y lie published also, and may be
kept in joxtapoaition to the oration.
Moat respectfully.
Your obedient servant,
J. E. Johnston.

19th May.reaobed me eaily yeeterdey,bor
ing boon forwarded from Misaiiaippi.
Col. Venable ia perfectly correct in say
ing that O.n Lae bad apoken freely to
me in regard to yoar removal from com
mand of tbe army of Tenneaaee. On
that occasion be expreaaed great regret
that yon had been removed, and aaid
that be bad done nil in hia power to pro
vent it. The Secretary of War bad re-
oently been at tbe Oeneral beadqnartem,
near Petersburg, to conanlt as to tbia mat
ter, aud Gen. Lee assured me that be bad
urged Ur. Heddon not to remove you
from command, and bad said to him that
if yoar could not command tbe array we
had no one who could.
He waa earnest in expressing not only
hia regret at yonr removal, bnt hia entire
confidence in yoaraelf.
This conversation made a strong im
pression on mo, aud though I have not
