Wo have for u long time thought no greater evil could befall the Demo erutlc party South, than the complete and final overthrow of Radicalism. While it wan right and proper wo should ho victorious In every contest, yet utter annihilation of the Radical party, In our opinion, Is a calamity to be deprecated. There can be no doubt that the effect upon us will bo felt in the shape of independent can didates, general confusion in our ranks, and probably balng into exist ence anew party with new Ideas to present to the people. But greater than all tills, Is the question what will we do with their voters? That party in Georgia, though in the mi nority, would still exist und their vo ters be kept together, but for their overwhelming defeats lust fall. Now that their party organization is broken up, their leaders disheartened and their cause abandoned, it leaves uisin the South a balance of jiower composed exclusively of negroes, who are cormorants upon the candidates for office, und have to be controlled by them in each election at great cost. This Is the case In State as well as municipal elections. Asa rule, they have no preferences, hut stand as a bone of contention, subject to the highest bidder. There can be no doubt that they are an Incubus upon the i>arty, and will be as long us it is necessary to obtain their votes with money. In a few more yoars, if this state of things continues to exist, the purty will be prevented from placing men in office distinguished for their wisdom and purity, but the prerequisite to office will bo decided by the amount of money the candidate can control to buy the negro vote. Running for office was always more or less expen sive, but now the emoluments of the various offices scarcely repay the suc cessful candidates the amount of money necessarily expended in being elected. Under the present system it acts almost as a prohibition to the man without inouey to run for an office. The evil must be remedied In some way. We hope the Legislature that is about to convene, will provide some means by which it can be checked, if not eradicated. No man should have the right to vote unless he uses it legitimately, and under no circum stances should he be allowed to bar ter it, as they would a commodity. We suggest the selling of a vote for money, or any other tiling of value, lie made a misdemeanor, and upon conviction be confined in jail for six months, and the franchise lie denied him forever. Some constitutional point, may he in the way, hut we i hink it ean be done legally. The Idea is a good one, and while such a law is liable to evasions, yet it will have a wholesome effect, and to a great ex tent stop this great and increasing evil. We desire to bring this matter before the public, hoping that some one may be able to suggest a certain remedy. If such an net as we pro pose is passed by tho General Assem bly, It, will place flip offices of the country In the reach of all good men, and those elected will be elected as representatives of the iieople upon their Individual merits and fitness for office. CoiiiiiiiiulcattoiiM. Yesterday we received several com munications from well known citi zens, which we must decline to pub lish, and we trust they will readily see the propriety of our doing so. They were of a personal nature, and would have led to endless bad feel ing, and may lie trouble. Our columns ore free ami open to every citizen in Georgia and Alabama lo discuss questions involving tho welfare of our city and tho South, or pertaining In any way to the correc tion of evils in our State or local gov ernment. Anything, in fact, which will prove Interesting to oar readers we will cheerfully publish, and we invite such correspondence. Columbus Daily Times. We have received tho first number of anew daily paper of the above title, started ill Columbus, Ga., on the Ist inst., by" Messrs. ,T. B. Wright & Cos., with Mr. Charles H. Williams as editor. It is thoroughly Democratic in principle, and Southern in tone, and we hope to see It live and prosper. It is neatly printed, and in complexion very much resembles tho old Daily Sun of that city. Wc welcome the Timm to our desk as an exchange, and hope to find it there regularly for many years to conie.—jK'q/attla Times. They say of Mrs. Grant that though she is not the handsomest woman in America, she is perhaps one of the best managers. The fact of his hav ing such a wife is Only another illus tration of Grant's rare luck. If ho knows how to tight a battle and drive a horse, she understands all about house-keeping, marketing, and how to keep the buttons on the children’s clothes. Montgomery is making a big effort to secure the holding of the Grange State I’air at that place, and her mu nicipal authorities have appointed a speaial committee to attend to the matter. Red Tape vs. the Popular Will. Mr. Charles O’Conor, of New York, has written a letter giving his opinion on the validity of the Now Y’ork con stitutional amendments, which he sustains, holding that whenever they see fit. the people of a State can alter their written constitution, and that alleged informalities are unimpor tant, and not to tie weighed against the popular will. F.XCITEWKVF. MAN ON A BLACK HOUSE, WITH BLACK HEARD RHINOS THE NEWS. On .Saturday night, there was some excitement on tho street, occasioned by ttie report that men were moving on tho city with hostile intentions. Wo could not get at the straight of it until this evening, when we picked up the following letter, which ex presses how the whole affair happen ed. The writer can get the original at tiiis office, and wo bog her pardon if sbe did not want it made public, but newspapers will publish anything they find: Cochin Nancy : I did it, it is true, und perhaps I oughtenter, lint I did it. all for the best, and perhaps It was for the best, for you see nobody was hurt, although there was a mighty stir in town, for, you see they was not expecting a raid from Chatta hoochee. You see I read in Harper ’s Weekly about the Bender family of Kansas, how they Ailed a whole cellar full of travelers’ dead bodies, who stopped over night with them and I thought I never would hear the like again, but imagine how unjinted my mind was to find that I have been living so near to a family, who, if report be true, afe o thousand times worse than the Benders. .Shall I mention their names? Why not, is it not in the mouths of every one, do not nurses scare refractory children now by the mention of the Bagleys! Well, I was sorry for this family to go to the bad, for they always stood high in the estimation of all the folks I knew In Chattahoochee, tho’ since it has been publicly announced that the Bagleys had turned so bad, it has been discovered by ail old lady friend of mine thut the old man never took a proper stand against his boys going to crime. Now, since I found this family out, I’ve been watching them close,— tho’ I’ve quit speaking to them, not knowing what they would do next, since I learned thut them that stuyed at home In Chattahoochee were also guilty of killing the police. So I wutched these boys, and notic ing that they were remarkably'quiet, I ’lowed that they was up to devil ment, and just after tho last cold snap I noticed them saddle their oreeturs and saw them slip off from home with three or four blankets und a very heavy quilt, a red quilt at that; ahul ha, boys, says I to my self, I have found you out; you have found that fire guns won’t do in Co lumbus; you are ufeard of being ar rested for currying concealed weop ons, so you have got your grand mother’s quilt and are going on a smothering expedition, calculating on ketohing a policeman asleep, and then to smother him. Oh, horrors! I never heard of anything so awful since the murder of the little English Princes by smothering, which my grandson John read of at school; hut drat his hide he was such a fool that he never could tell whether them Princes were boys or gals. Ho after seeing the Bagley boys start off, I called John from his plow and told him to saddle the old black mure and hurry up to town and let the folks know the Bagleys was a coming, and if he would be spry he could get tlie vacancy on the police should one occur by reason of this visit of the Bagleys. So John start ed, and then soon as he was gone, I knowed I’d done wrong in sending him, for he never told anything straight in his life. I have since learned that John spread a report that the Bagleys were coming with a quilt for every police man, and a pile of quilts besides, and that if the quilts licit out they in tended to smother the town, and create vacancies too numerous to mention. John says that by the time he got through spreading the news he was so soared himself he thought he’d leave town and not wait for a vacan cy; so he came out of town on the street leading to the jail, hoping to avoid meeting tlie Bagleys; but Im agine his horror on nearing the jail to see the Bagley boys just about to enter the jail with the quilts and blankets; he says he was so scared he tiled to holler and he could not even hear himself, so he quit trying and watched to see what was up, and after awhile lie saw the Bag ley boys come out ami ride rapidly away, without the quilt and blankets. About this time John sorter hurried towards home. Tho old mare is dead; don’t know whether she was soared or colicked. Don’t let anybody know it eras me that spread the excitement. Write soon and let me know all the news. Yours affectionately, Polly . a Hitt limiifrer'M Foes. The following is found in the Chica go Tones: “A Grange Master in good standing recently informed a Times missionary that, iii his opinion, Kelly &Cos the kid-gloved and silk-stoekinged Gran gel’s who farm in Washington, 1). had accumulated at least #250,000 cash for dispensations, at sls each, during the last three years.” Commenting upon which, a Palmy ra (Wisconsinl correspondent of the Times remarks as follows: If your "missionary” would consult a Grange map, he would find the above figures to be much less than those given by the Grangers them selves. They' say, up to last July, "there were 22,000 Granges, embra cing a membership of over 2,000.000, with an increase of organizations about 2,500 tier month." Now, taking these figures, we find instead of #250,000 for "dispensa tions,” we have $330,000 to July last. The initiation fees at the moderate estimate of #3 per head amount to $0,000,000, the ten cent monthly dues per annum, amount to $2,400,000, tie six cent quarterly dues to the State Granges annually amount to #480,000, besides the fifty cents for females, and the dollar tor males. The ten cent annual dues to the National Grange amounts to $200,000. in addi tion to what they get for “charters.” It is not to be wondered at that the bowels of the Grangers begin to be in pain, as indicated by the resolutions they are passing. CiKOIMHA NEWS.

The death of Dr. Linoecum is an nounced as having occurred at Bren- j ham, Washington county, Texas, a few days ago. We think he was a native of Richmond county, from whence he emigrated to Columbus, ! Mississippi, in 1818, and from thence to Texas In 1838. He was u man of | powerful mind, though often eccen- j trie. Hays a Texas paper: Among i their studies he spent his idle hours for fourteen years, in Washington county, in studying the habits of the | large red ant, common all over the State, and then wrote u pamphlet j giving the results. It possesses the j interest of a novel. For this produo-1 tion ho was awarded costly gold medals by the Academies of Science i both in Philadelphia and Paris. His writing on the grasses of Texas - its minerals and its agriculture have been numerous and valuable. For years he petitioned the Legislature to abolish punishment in penitentia ries, ami substitute ennerehism as more efficacious. In Mexico, ho stated to Hon. John H. Brown thut for fifty-eight, years, at daylight each j Christmas morning lie stood in the [ door barefoot, in his night clothes,; and played lhe Scottish air of Killy Krankv, and that on forty-eight of those occasions he had used the vio lin then in his possession, made to ! order for him in Paris in 1820, where- j upon he repeated the piece in tiis own hospitable Home, opposite the city of Tuxpan. He was then seventy-five, and on his birth night, a few nights before, hud been tire hunting, killed a deer and carried it home on his shoulders, a distance of two of three miles. He at the same time said he had reared ten children to he married and settled. Protection of the I'rrnrh Theatre. To an American one of the striking features of the playing is that the subordinate parts are as well done as the leading ones. The servant bauds a letter or announces dinner as natu rally as in real life. The discipline is excellent, and the playeraceepts with a good grace the part assigned to him, although it may not be commensu rate with his talents. In one or two of Moilove’s comedies all the mem bers of the company appear on the stage ils sujiernumeraries. With the kind of religion with which Moliere is regarded, it is considered an honor to be east in any of his works. The Moliere worship is, in tine, the creed of the establishment. It is probably the only theatre in the world where there is no music. The sound of the violin and the flute, however agreeable, is something ex traneous to the drama pure, und cal culated to interfere with its legitimate effects, und it is excluded. It is a sanctuary devoted to a special art, and the strains of even Mozart are out of plaoe; the harp is an instru ment of levity, and the trombone is profanity. 'There Is no hooting or eating of ls-anuts in fact the jiea nut is unknown no thumping of sticks. There is a discreet silence in the audience while waiting for the play to begin which reminds one of Ia church. • • j A Child Goes to Bed in Good | Health, anp Becomes Blind in an Hour. Frank, a son of John Me- Donell, residing on the east side of First street, below Monroe, who is about fourteen years of age. went to j lied in apparently good health on ! Fridav night. In about an hour, he called his father and told him he could not see. The parents sent for Rev. Father Nash, and for Dr. Coop er. Saturday morning, the lad was no better, biit during the afternoon, he was aule to see for a short time, but lias since been blind. His condi tion is rearlly pitiful. This morning he was sitting up in bed, and every few minutes, a sharp spasm would seize him. lie desires constant watching, for fear he will harm him self. He puts his fingers in his mouth, and attempts to bite them off. His hands have been bandaged, to prevent him injuring himself. Dr. W. 8. Cooper savs the ease U a most singular one.— Troy Times. The population of London, inclu ding that of the four counties in which it stands, is as large of that of the whole State of New York, and larger than the population of Penn sylvania, namely, over 4,000,000. In 1801 the population was 874,845; in 1871, 3,400,000; but adding the four counties referred to, it must be now nearly five millions. In an area of 12-2 square miles its inhabitants oc cupy 400,078 houses, forming upwards of 20,500 streets, squares, terraces, lanes, etc. The average density of population is 40 persons to an acre, or 25,665 to a square mile. Two thou sand children are born every week, and 1,400 to 1,500 persons die within the same period. —A little girl living near Newcas tle, Pa., mistook the nature of some concentrated lye which was careless lessly left in a tin cup where she was playing the other day, and drank it. The lye so inflamed the (esophagus that that organ became too contract ed to allow of the introduction of even the smallest-sized catheter. She now subsists entirely upon beef tea, which is introduced into the stomach by a very difficult and painful pro cess. —The Detroit Press says a Chicago alderman tried for three hours to think of George Washington’s last name, but ho couldn’t do it. He said he knew it was George, and that the matt had something to do with the Mexican war, but he couldn’t remem ber further. —This world would be a sandy des ert of lonesomeness if the women were not privileged to attend auction ! sales and pay more for an old bureau or chair than anew chamber set would cost. \v\oi v unuvTs.
