Oar colamnn are burdened with oom-
manioationn presenting the claima of can*
didatee for offloe. We ahall charge regu
lar advertining raten for auoh commanica*
tioaa, showing preference and allowing
exemption to none. They are written and
pobliahed in the interest of individnala,
and though they may be of some general
interest, their number and bulk are too
greet to impose on a newspaper publiaher
(who has to pay hia printers for every line
of them) withoat compensation for hia
apaoe and expense.
Thi New Orleans Picayune of Wed
nesday reports a ohsnge of the situation
in another of the Louisiana parishes.
The eaption to its aocount is euffloiently
expressive, vis: “The Citizens of Glair-
borne Pariah Argue with the Garpet-bag
Officials. The Latter Bee the Point and
Reaign."
Til Washington Star aays : “Two
Southern gentlemen, now in this city,
who reside ia different fltatea and are of
different political associations, both of
whom are well known socially and politi
cally as men of character, offer to bet
equal sums of money on the three follow
ing propositions, all to be taken together.
First—that, life and health permitting,
Gen. Grant will be a candidate for the
Presidency in 1876 ; second—that Gen.
Grant will be nominated as a candidate
for the Presidency in 1876 ; and third—
that, if a candidate, Gen. Grant will be
elected President in 1876.”
The Montgomery Advertiser calls at-
tention, opportunely, to two sections of
the new Constitution of Alabama. One
provides that persons who have been con-
vioted of treason, embezzlement of public
funds, malfeasance in office, crime pun
ishable by law with imprisonment in the
penitentiary, or bribery, shall not be per
mitted to register or vote ; and the other
declares that no Executive pardon shall
relieve inch persons of their political dis
abilities.
We reckon that the State Journal con
siders these constitutional provisions an
other “device to complicate the exercise
by the negroes of tbo right of suffrage.”
Charles Clinton, Radical, Auditor of
Public Aocounts of Louisiana, has re
signed, because of tho nomination by the
late Radical Convention of Dubnolet,
negro, for tttate Treasurer. He aays that
the uominatiou of Dobuolet is in oontra-
vent ion of a resolution adopted by the
Convention, to the effeot that it would
nominate none but honest men ; that Du-
bnelet, as Treasurer, has beon acting in
eonnivanoe with a remorseless gang of
speculators, and would continue the same
•ourae if re-elected. We copy one para
graph from Cliuton’s letter to the Gov
ernor:
1 decline to serve longer with such au
associate as the nominoo of the Republi
can Convention, or to be longer held re
sponsible for acts which, though I oppoi.o
them, I may not be able to prevent. I
also regard the endorsement of Mr. Du-
buolet an a condemnation of my course
bv my own party, and gladly avail myself
or the opportunity to escape from a
thankless and moet uupleasant offloe,
whioh, otherwise, I would have felt
bound to rotaiu.
Major Bidasy Herbert.
We have been indebted to this olever
gentleman, for two or three weeks past,
for very iutereating letters from several
seats of learning in Georgia, giving ua ao-
oounta of their Commencements, Ac,
His letters were the more aooeptable, both
to as and to our readers, because of the
oars which he took to give us particular
information concerning graduates, stu
dents, and visitors from Columbus and
this section of the State,
In this connection, we owe the Major
and apology for the non-appearance of
two of his letters—one dated Athens,
August 5th, and the other the 4tb. Nei
ther of these letters reached uh until yea-
terd y, and we would be a week behind
our ootemporaries of other cities of the
Stats in publishing now accounts of the
sxeroiNes at Athens. We do not know
the oanse of the delay of these letters,
bnt suppose it was carelessness or inat
tention by some one through whose hands
they passed.
MIXED SCHOOLS AT WASHIHO*
TOM.
A late dispatch announces the proba
bility of the adoption in September of
the plan of mixing the white and blaok
ohildreo in the schools of the District of
Columbia. We hope that the experiment
will be tried there at onoe, ao that ita
evils will be made upparent before Con
gress meets in December. The Govern
ment has not lately had much auoceaa iu
this way, and experience as well as reaaon
tells us that it will fail with ita expert-
maul of mixed schools in tho Distriot.
It used to allow the people of tho District
the right of local Holf-guT.rnm.Dt,
and this worked generally well
until the right to vote we.
conferred on the negro ee. Waah-
lngton City was overrun by them, and
they obtained the ascendancy in the gov
ernment of the District ; then Congress
had to aatakli.h the syetem and oonfer the
appointment of a Governor, do., upon the
President. The Federal Government baa
also tried the mixed white and bleck sys
tem at West Point, and the coneeqnenoe
has been strife and rebellion in the mili-
tary institute, and tha failure of every ne
gro eadet who baa been examined—at
had one of them charging that he wae
dropped not on aooount of hie incapacity,
AIU »l THE III* ttr THE
TIMES.
It ie now reeeonebly cure that the
Southern State* ere to hold, in the next
Gongreee, * poeltion materially different
from that of the laet eight yean. Here*
tofore onra he* not been conaidererf a
aeetion of equal political rights. Our
helpleaenaes baa been au apparent
that our very weakneae ought to
have inspired the feeling of mag
nanimity, lnatead of hatred, in peal
ing with ua. But now we appear to be
gainiog a position from which we ean
bring to bear our numerical aud intellec
tual etrength. Oat weakneae having af
forded ua no protection in the peat, partly
because of the predominance of passion
at the North, and partly beoanae of divi
sion. at borne that checkmated oor own
movements, we have now to take advan
tage of eirenmetanoee presenting more
favorable oonditlane at both the North
and the South. We will have strength in
the next Congreax if we have the right
kiud of men to use it—men fnlly com
prehending the righta and the wroug. of
their aeetion, and able and fearless in vin
dicating the former and exposing the
latter.
Of oonrse the primary object to be
considered ia euecaia in the elections of
Congressmen, and this ie a consideration
that should be kept steadily in view iu
the selection of candidates in close Dte-
triote like oar own. We trust that thia
will ba tbe controlling sentiment witp the
delegatee to our District Oopvention—tha
selection, Aral, of a man who ean win
the race, and next of the bat and ablat
man who oan win it. We do not write in
tbe interest of any particular candidate,
or to disparagement of any one, but
merely to impress upon oar people the
improved elatua which they (re likely to
have in the next Oongrem; the necessity
of aiding to gain that stains by the election
of a good Demoorat from thia Distrust;
and the importance oi sending tbe ablest
Democrat upon whoee election, after a
nomination, we oonld count with any as
surance. Let ua strive, first, to acquire
the atatus desired and note promising,
and naxt to send man fnlly able to main
tain that status.

It ia uaelsaa to state why we look with
interest to the New York Herald'e opin
ion of the significance of political eventB.
Everybody knows that it ia a oloae and
shrewd observer,
The Herald of Monday, after referring
to Domocratio suoeesaes in 1878 (last
fall;, and repeating the Kepubiiean argu
ments, that they amounted to nothing,
inasmuch aa 1878 was an “off year" in

National AdmiuiHtrntion oxintn no longer.
Tbe objects of the party are no longer the
pnrpohUH of tbe Ad aim miration. The
compact between tbe PreHident and the
parly eutered into in 1868 baa expired.
I’be engagetuooU of the party wore ful
filled iu hie election for a second term,
amt tho reciprocal duties of General Grant
bave been disoharged in tbe completion
of the Republican programme of Southern
reoouNiruutioD aod restoration. Grant In
no longer bound as an agont of the party,
aud the party ia no longer bound to his
Administration. * * • *
“Nor bIdoo Inal autumn baa Gen. Grant
shown any feeliog but that of indiffer
ence in regard to tha reunite of the State
e actions. Tbe Administration did noth
ing for the Republican ticket last npriog
in New Hampshire or Connecticut, and
did nothing to rayd tbe party from ita re
cent heavy defeat in North Carolina. On
tbe otbor bund, in 1872 no atono waa left
unturned by tbe Administration to carry
thene States, and they all were carried.
The conclusion inevitably follows that
Gen. Graut now desires to prove to the
Republican party that he is necesnary to
its stillness and upon his own terms, or
tbnt he desire* n new puty in its place
aud under tho flag of Geo. Grant for a
third term. For eithsr of these designs
his reticence up >u this third term myste
ry is working well in the demoralisation
of tha Republican party, and there is no
third proposition whioh will fit the case.
Returning, then, to these recent Southern
elections, their bearing upon the Presi
dential succession may be readily defined.
They do not point to Geu. Grant as tho
Republican candidate; they have not
tur i$d upon Grant as tbe probable oppo-
Kition caudidate. They point to the over-
throw of the Republican party and the
Administration.
Kditor Enquirer-Sun /—As there seems
to be some misapprehension on the part
of some people with regard to Mr. Watt’s
being a caudidate for the Legislature,
snd in order to settle that question, we,
tbe citizens of the county, announce him
as our candidate from the country. We
are willing for the oity people to have any
man that auita them. As Mr. T. W.
Grimes has already announoed himself,
we have no objection to him, but feel
that he has some claims on the couuty,
as he suffered bis name run in 1868,'only
to be defeated. We are willing to sap
port any good, available man from tbe
city, in connection with Mr. T. J. Watt.

Ou Saturday next the people of Mna-

of selectlug two gentlemen to represent
the oounty in the House of Keprmmnta-

We present to the people of the oounty
the name of G. deLauney, a gentleman
well qualified for the position, and one,
while protecting the interest of hia sec
tion, will protect tbe interest of the whole
State. The gentleman named is no

Gapt. Porter ought to have calls from

—The Radical Congrefisional Nomina
ting Convention of the First District, at
Belma, had balloted one hundred and
eighty times up to Wednesday night, with
out making a nomination, and with very
little obange from the first vote. The
negroes have a majority in the Conven
tion, lint they are divided betwoen Haral

whites will fight it out all the fall before
they wlU permit the nomination of either.
A Bo-called white man will be nominated
in the end.

ARRIVAL OF A CARGO ON MONDAY.
The schooner Lily of the Valley, which
arrived yesterday from Belize, Honduras,
and Hullo, brought oue hundred tons of
what is known in Honduras as concrete
sugar, being tbe first cargo of this sugar
ever brought to New Orleans. It is made
from eaue in the crudest manner possible,
the juice being boiled in an open kettle
and the sugar poured into barrels whilst
in a heated state, where it oongeals, ob
taining the hardness of maple sugar, and
ia about the same color. The grain is
very ooarse, and for refining purposes it
is considered excellent.
We understand this load of sugar ia
brought here as an experiment, and aa the
initial cargo of a proposed healthy trade.
We understand from the captaiu of the
Lily of the Valley, that a large quantity
of thia sugar is manufactured along the
Uouduras and Moiioan coasts, and were
there a regular aud certain market for it
the qnautity could be largely increased.
Hitherto it has mostly been exported to
Europe.—N. O. Times, IMA.
The Grain Crops.
Achibon, August 11.—The grasshoppers
have literally devoured everything in
Northern aud Southwestern Kansas, aud
Nebraska. The damage inflioted on veg
etation is far greater than in I860. The
oora crop through all this region is totally
destroyed.
Detroit, August 11.—In corn and oats
the greater portion of Illinois will average
only a two-thirds crop. The central part o(
the State will yield full crops. Ia Iowa
the corn is in fine condition snd the proa-
pects are good for a heavy crop. Oats
look well, and a larger crop than usual
will be made. In Kansas corn is almost
a total failure, and oats are not fiat taring
—the Effect of graaahoppers.
A Deadly Spring.—A writer in the
Colusa (California) Independent says:
About one-half a mile over a mountain
from Bartlett Springs there is what is
oalled the Gas Spring. This is probably
tbe greatest curiosity of the mountains.
The water ia ioe cold, bnt babbling and
foaming aa if boiled, and the greatest
wonder is the inevitable destruction of
life produced by inbaling the gas. No
live thing »to be found within a circuit
of one buodrod yards near the spring.
The very bird*, ir they happen to fly over
it, drop dead. We experimented with a
lizard on ita destructive properties by
