Mabrham is tbs agrat for the Emquimb-Svb (or Masoogos sad RuhmU ooanties. He u .uthorirod to solioit sdrertising end sabsoriptions, end to reoeipt for the seas. We commend him s« s gentlemen in erery vsy worthy of oonfldenoe. Fbom the Isteet reports of the New Or- lesns papers, it sppesrs thst the boete here osrrled to thst city, since the 1st of September last, 170,488 biles of cotton from Red river, 102,738 belee from One- chite river, end 45,036 bsles from Atkin ses river—being s slight felling off in the receipts from esoh river ss oompsred with lest yesr. Tbb Montgomery AdterUir, of yester- dsy, ssys: “A negro men mured 8am Johnson, .lodge Busteed's servant, hss sued the Western Railroad for $20,000 damages for ejeoting him from the ladies' ear on Friday last. This is said to be a test esse to prove the equal right of ne groes with ladies and gentlemen on pnblio conveyances, and at publio places genor ally. In (set, it is a social equality move ment in doad earnest." Who hss not read or sang that rollick ing, yet pathetic, melody of “Rosin the Bow”? It was written, as wo areinfonu- ed, by Mr. Sparks, now of Atlanta. Col. Blsndford, our informant, says that the song was written on a bon oimnt named Koaim, who was a jolly good fellow and a grsaj ladies' man. He was known aa “Boatm, the beau," and the original song had this name ; but it was subsequently oorrupted to “ltoain the bow," and a more stirring air was never drawn from a fiddle string by a rosined bow. C. We have reoeived a copy of the Londou Money Market Itevirw, of the 1st of Au gust. The only action of foreign capital, iats of interest to this country, which we find in the Rroieio, is the prooeedings in reference to the late Funding not of Lou isiana, and regarding tho Alabama ami Chattanooga Railroad. At a meeting of the foreign holders of Louisiana bonds, held at the Council-house, Moorguto street, on the 2!Hb of July, it was unanimously resolved “that the bondholders adhere to their protest, and will not aoeept the conversion proposed by Governor Kol- logg, confiscating forty per cent, of the capital aud interoat of their bonds.'' An advertisement gives notice that on tho 6th of August a meeting of the foreign holders of tho Alabama aud Chattanooga Railroad Isinds would bo held at the Counoil-house to reoeivo tho ropert as to the measures in progrosB for obtaining possession of that road under tho fiist mortgage held by these bondholders. Should the foreign holders get possession of the road, as they are tryiug to do, what will Alabama's mortgage be worth ? Tin two or three Radical papers of Ala- abaoia have for a week or ten days past been desperately trying to make poliiical capital out of the murder (for there is uo doubt it was a dastardly murder) of W. P. Billings, Eaq., of Bumter county, and now we find in the Northern papers tele- grapbio reports representing the matter in the same light. These reports claim that Billings was killed on account of his poli tics, and intimate that it was done by Demoorata. The truth of tho matter, aa given by the Livingston Journal and let ters from Sumter county, appears to ho that BilltDgs was a Liberal Republican, who voted for Greeley in 1872, aud opposed the Civil Rights bill in 1874. lie was returning from a Republi can meeting on the night of tho murder, and was shot down in the road when near his bouse. He had stated at the meeting that he had a large amonn' of money in hia possession, but when his body was found he hsd neilhor pocket- book nor money. Billiuga, it is stated, did not intond to go home from the meet ing, having writton to bis wife that bo would be absent several days; but while he was at the meetiug a negro rode up and told him thst his wife was sick aud wanted him to go home—the negro riding bask at ouoe iu the direction of hia house. Billings shortly after followed, aud that was the last that was seen of him alive. Hit wife states, it is aaid, that she d.d not seud him any message by a negro, was not siok, aud did not expeot him at home that night. These fact* are suffi oieut to destroy any reasonable suspicion even that Billiuga was killed on account of his politics by Democrats. ■ss. B. H. Bill astf Lsslilsss. The Now Orleaus JiulUtin of Sunday notices with much pleasure tho prospout of Mr. Hill s nomination and election to Congress. It appreciates the importance of the Southern States having in the Na- ftional Councils once more, aud especially at this particular time, men with the abil ity and courage to present their w rongs and advocate their rights iu such a tuau- ner as to command tho attention and en list the sympathies of tho whole country. The JiulUtin says : “No citizen is more cognizaut of the length aud depth of the iniquities boaped upon the South by organized despotism than Mr. Hill, aud few men in Georgia, or out of it, are so peculiarly fitted for waging successful warfare against them. Beit remembered, also, that Mr. H. is fully alive to the crimes against republio <n in- atitutions perpetrated by Durell, Kellogg and United States bayonets in Louisiana; that ou every occasion be has condemned the usurpation in scathing language, and should he make his appearance in Wash ington Oitv, clothed with tbe powers of delegate to the national council* from the Empiro State of the South, we may a»fely real assured that the struggle of Louis- iana to burst the bonds that bind her, to shake off her manacles of robbery and oppression, will fiud in him the roadie-1 and deepest sympathy. We shall welcome lfr. Hilt'a nomination then, not merely that it gratifies our pride of race, and of Motion, but for the more pereoual reason that through him, Louisiana will have gained a biilliant, courageous cbampiou, and an advocate in tbe halls of Congieta, unsurpassed for boldness, fores and tlo- qneooe. TBB OPELIKA CONTENTION. It hss been our hope that tbs Republi cans wbo meat to day in Opelika would nominate good men for Congress and for Judge; but it eeetao we avw to be disap* pointed. Pali arson, like Black of Bul loch, it a good man, and a gentleman; he would make a good Congressman, and, as opposed to Strange, he would make, we think, an ezoellent dodge. He would oertainly administer tbe law. We do not think,however,that howiil he nom inated on his own merits, If nominated at all. The eaadidate for Congress seems to absorb all the attention of the wire pollen, and some of the morst expert tricksters in the Republican party are now at work in the Third Congressional District of Alabama, working fdr their respective favorites. Busteed is said to be in Opelika and “Dick, the dodge” and ek-Bowery blood-tub is working in the interest of Hey man. We do not know Heyman, but if Heymau wtohes to wfm the nomination, or at ail events to retain kis respectability, bs will do well to “shake” this fellow Busteed ; for moat detent awn think there Is a poi son and contagion in the ex-fire rowdy’i touch. W. YK. Betts 1k the sekond, and bottle-holder of Pelham, the present thor oughly incompetent and utterly worthless Representative; a wan who is diatin gtkhed not oofly by hit #aat df trains, but bis utter disregard of the wants of his constituents. Betts is well known aa one of the reddest handed men iu Ala bama, a pistol “to*er” who has shot more men ip hia peculiar way than any man outside of the penitentiary. As we favof the election of good men, no matter what their party m*y be, we feel bound to oppose Pelham, and as we must judge Mr. Heyfnsh by the company he keeps, we can wish him no sueoess, should he be nominated, as it would be a misfortune, we are oonvinoed, to himself and the State. o. THE ALABAMA THIMBLE • Bl HAIL New Ton Ueo the Negroes, aaf Now Ton ffon'I. We have heretofore alluded to the very unfair means resorted to by the Radical State Bxecutive Committee of Alabama to ttock their State Convention with white inen opposed to the Civil Rights bill, or in favor of ignoring It. This they have effected by adoptiog a ratio of representation which gives to a dozen white Radicals in North Alabama coun ties as largo a representation as one hun dred negro Radicals in South Alabama counties. The ohjeot is to prevent the Civil Rights issue heiug presented in the State canvass, aud allow it to bo pressed only in tbe negro portions of tho Stato. Accordingly find that in tho Southern Congression al Districts advocates of that bill will be run, and in the Northern Distriots its pretended opponents will be run. To-day (Wednesday^ tho Radical Con vention of the Third Congresaional Dis trict is to meet in Opelika, and to-inor- row (Thursday) tho Radical State Conven- sign is to make (lie Civil Rights question an issue in the District, and to iguore it in the State. Let tu am how they have arranged to do this, by giving the negroee a representation according to numbers in tbe Distriot Convention, And refnsing them such a representation ip tho State Convention. The following tablo gives the whito and colored population of the several counties of the Hit Congressional Distriot, with the numbers of their delegates iu the State and Distriot Conventions respectively: -tom/lN, v Whitt.

Car Nat Natlat A Live Family Paper I Thoae who look to the Sooth aa a place for inTMtmant or emigration are etartled by the fact that In each Staten aa Geor gia and Alabama, not one in ten of the white people aubneriho for their own pa- pera, and thia fact baa brought a charge of ignorance againat the Southern plen- teraaa n clean, which in not trne in fact. The troth in their not nnbncribing for pa per* and supporting them aa they should do, ia attributable to oarelenanoas, and to the fact that they do not folly appreciate the importance of keeping pace with the news and advance of the world, nor have they ever tbongbt of the great and vital necessity of having a live paper aa a visi tor that cornea daily or weekly to edu cate their femiHea. A good paper will do more to make a home pleasant, bright and intelligent then fifty time, the amount of the subscription spent in any other yrtj. The man who habitually reads an able paper would be lost end un happy without it. •natkenn Jewrnallem. It ia oharged by thoae who sneer at the South that there in not a groat journal to be found in its limits, and that any one of the great Northern States supports more and better paper, than all the South ern States put together. While we can not deuy thin, we oan say with truth it ia not for the want of Southern journolin tio talent, for no section haa more ability of thia kind. Tbe true cause ia that Southern renders are too few to rapport a great paper. And even where they are offered able journala at low prioea in tbe'r own States, they prefer, aa in other purchases mnde by. the South, to take Northern papers. The proprietor of the Columbus Esquibbb-Soh has endeavor ed to point out thia arror and show the Southern people that if they would ever line to the proud position for which heaven designed them they must patron ise home enterprise, particularly when that enterprise requires a large expendi ture of money, and eduoated talent aa in the case of a newspaper, Tke (afulnr-lea. In one year tbs Enuuibbb-Sun haa more than trebled its oireulation, and this by hard work honestly and fearlessly pursued. Yet the eiroulation does not warrant ua in giving anoh a paper as we would like to our readora, aud one that would reflect credit on the South. Now that there ia a prospect for a good orop, and a healthier tone, that bespeaks a new departure in prosperity and enterprise, we have determined to carry out tbe plan with whioh we started, and to place our iien ia to meet fit Montgomery. The de-~ "Khln r «» oh of every ranu, Thono figure* hUow that Tallapoosa, the strongest whito oimnty in tho DiBtriot, has just as many representatives in the St.te Convention aa Russell, tbe strong, est negro county ; but when it eomeR to repreuentatioo in the Distriot Convention, the Russell negroes count, and havo more then three times as many delegates as Tallapoosa.' Again, Macon and Tails, poosa have vary nearly equal aggregate populations, with thoir classifications re versed— Maoon having about 2j blacks to one white, and Tallapoosa about 2} whites to one black. Each has four dole- g itos iu tho State Convention, but Macon has ten to Tallapoosa's four in the Distriot Convention. Other comparisons would show inequalities nearly as great— the evident ol>je it being to give the ne groes the full relative strength to whioh tho r numbers entitle them in the Dis trict Convention, but to hold the man agement of the Ht.ta Convention in the bauds of tho Radical whites, numbering uot oue-tenth as many voters as the negroes. With these figures and oomparisons be fore them, our readers will understand precisely how it Is that the State Oonven- lion is engineered to steer clear of the Civil Rights breakers, while the Distriot Couventfon is ho constituted as to allow the negroes to run a Civil Rights cham pion if they desire. OUB OPINION. We havo received several letters asking for “the opinion of A. R. Calhoun in the Beecher matter." We oan assure our in. quisitive correspondents that ao far Cal houn has not made up bia mind aa to the guilt or innocenoe of Mr. Beecher, though all his hopes are bent to the complete acquittal of the clergyman. It is easy to pass an opinion on tbe character of a man hitherto esteemed good, and it would, porhapa, ba popular to denounce Mr. Beecher; but so far, we have not reoeived sufficient evidence—aud we hav# read it all—to deeida our verdict against the pastor of PlymouthChnrch. He may be a very bad man, aa may be thousands whom we now consider pure; but we know Mr. Beeoher is talenled, and that he is not mercenary; he ia a minister of God, aud before we can have our faith in hia parity overthrown, the evidenoo must be euoh as would leed us, were we ou e jury, to find him guilty. We ere still reading the evidence, and we still have faith in tha^innooenoe of the preach er as we have in the all-wise end benevo lent God whom all good men worship. the charge of ignoranoa made by onr tradnoer*.

Kditor Enquirer-SunWill you please explain for the satisfaction of e plain oountryman two things which have poxxled me ever since I was allowed to vote: Firstly, about every two years, in the latter part of summer and fall, I be. come very popular, and when I come to town to sell a load of wood, so many dis tinguished men are so glad to see me, and make me feel ao important when they aay, “Why how are you, Spinks ? I am so glad to see you. How is tbe old woman and children ?" Thinks I to my self, well J. 8., old fellow, yon are rising. See how these learned men have been looking for you ever so long. Spinks feels mighty good for e month or two. Election over, rad then comes s collapse. My greatness ia gone, no body regards J. 8.—don't even know my name. What's tha matter ? I don't ohanga my clothes, I still sell wood at two dollars a load. Nextly—Why is it that the men who hava failed in every branoh of ordinary business have such extraordinary talents for serving the pnblic? Ia it beoanse they are not able to reduoe their immense capacities to anything below the business of a county, distriot or State ? If this ain't it, what is It, and why ? Mr. Editor, I am proud of my country and my countrymen, and glad to see that wo still have enough patriots left wbo are willing to seorifiae themselves in the offices of the country, end thereby save us from Ihe humiliation of e draft or the importation of'carpet-baggers to answer for us et roU-oall. Now, Mr. Editor, as I don’t mean ray offence by my questions, I hope you will have the kindness to relieve the donbtsof your simple enquirer, end muoh oblige Yours, Jbdbdiar Spinks. Owe Tenth Mary to ONket Another. Columbus, Ga., August 12, 1874. Editor Enquirer-Sun:—In this morn ing’s issue I notice a communication from M. 0. W., in whioh he certainly does etreteh hie blanket. I think I have heard the gentleman narrate some yams before —one ospeoialiy—in whioh ho aohioved the wonderful feat of killing a deer by shooting him through Ihe hind foot and ear, at one and the same shot, with a rifle. Of course, when he told this, he was laughed at, and, thinking possibly we doubted him, he called on an old negro to verify his assertion. Sambo said that ebery word Mars Mat. said ’bout dat deer was true; and, ou being asked to explain how he did it, old Sambo took off his bat, scratched hia head, dosed aud reopened his eyes, looked Heavenward for an in stant, then closing one eye and aorewing his mouth into e triangular shape, he looked thoughtfully upon tbe ground, and finally raised his head, hia face all radiant with a broad grin, sayB he: “Gentlemen’s, dat deer was scratching his head wid his foot when Mara Mat. shot him." Then 8ambo turned a serious conntenanco on the author of the tale, and, says he: “Mars Mat., don’t you gib dis nigger nary nuoher one quite so fur part ta dat one, for I jis could git dat foot agin dat head.” Mat. should not have stopped with his worm story in Texas to add some strength, and something like e possibility to bis wonderful tale; he should have told us of the locust raid in Iowa some years since, when they were so voraoious as to deatroy every vestige of food from the people, aud to maintain life the people were com pelled to eat the looaits.
