DALLY TIMES. ColumbUKi Hit.. gATPRDAY UNT.UiV ai. 1878. |[. WILLIAMS. - - - Kdllor. The TiMci Oflee I. In OnnljT'a Building (iii>-Ulh), on Ht. Clnlr •treet. HRCONNTBVCriON. The leaders of the Radical party have assembled In Washington to try to rosurroct their dying party. They have finally concluded that its life is fast ebbing away, and that it can only bo resuscitated by a vigorous prose cution of the war of hate against the South. The proposition now flashed over the wires is to place the South under military rule, overthrow State gov ernments, and place provisional Gov ernors at the head of each State. They look in every direction for a pretext, but as yet have been unable to definitely fix upon a sufficient one. The most feasible pretext for seizing the State governments is found in the slanders upon the South, told by un scrupulous men, and fanned into a blazo by the invectives of Logan, Pease & Cos. The dispatch of Sheridan relating that Louisiana is in a state of rebellion, and that the atmosphere is impregnated with crime, is used by Logan as sufficient provocation for the Government to establish drum head courts in that State. Pease, the carpet-bagger from Mississippi, tells the liarty that from statistics gather ed on the Georgia and Alabama bor der, there is uo safety among us, and that murderers throng our country. He read an article written from this section by a correspond ent of the New York Times in sub stantiation of tits position. To per petuate their party in power they will stoop to any sort of dinning and meanness. They only await the op portunity to place us under military rule, and trusting that our manhood will resent the outrage, and then they can cry out “rebellion in the South,” and thus bring back to their colors the unthinking masses at the North. Everything that is said or written from hero, that is at all slanderous or untrue, Is taken up by those men and used against us. Already they linvo special correspondents s“rit South to work tip the outrages and villify the i>eoplo. Wo should indeed bo cautious and on the alert, to guard against the class of men who visit us, and profess friendship, and then leave with n slander upon their lips, rea<ly to revive it in any style to their vile and unprincipled masters. If tlie Administration attempts such a thing, they must do it in the face of a complete exposure of the villiany of Sheridan, Logan and others, whose only object in life is to keep alive and glowing the hated persecu tion against the South. Some think that it will culminate in a general seizure of the State gov ernments at the South. There is some reason for suehagraveopinion, for already has Grant asked for an appropriation to the army for two years, while it Is a fact that never be fore In the history of the government has such an appropriation been asked for more than one year. With an ar my fully equipped and an appropria tion in hand to maintain that army for two years, there is no telling what Grant would not aspire to. We feel confident that Congress will not plaoo so much power in the hands of the Administration with such a threatening aspect before them, and then the West will not submit to such a course, for it might come their turn next. We believe in the South and her people speaking their honest senti ments, lot the result be what it may, but we think they should take care they are not misrepresented or mis understood, and all theories of blood, murder, and insufficiency of our laws only serves to outrage us, and strengthen our enemies in Washing ton. .—•— . A New Yoiik paper notices the in troduction into Wall street of a now method of gambling in stocks, spe cially adapted to the use of persons of small means and less wisdom. One per cent, is now the modest sum on the par value of a stock that is re quired to be deposited with a broker, as a guarantee of margin, instead of at least ton per cent., which was for merly demanded. On the old plan the gambler risked the entire value of tho stock involved in his opera tions, but on the new one he can lose only the little sum he pays down. The system Is simple and easy to learn, the editor says, and promises to become as popular as faro or keno. Several brokers have issued little pamphlets describing tlie nature and advantages of this new invention. The possibility of loss in doing busi ness with them is strenuously denied, while the certainty of immense profits is portrayed iu glowing colors. - - New York Herald thus remarks on tho good Gou. Grant can do the country: “Since the day when Fort Donelson surrendered General Grant has done the country much good ser vice ; but it is not an exaggeration to say that in all his remarkable career he never had an opportunity to bene fit it so greatly as lie could do now by resigning tho Presidential office; and probably it would be impossible for him to do any other act or take any other step whatever, which would meet with sueli almost universal ac ceptance and favor from I lie public.'’ An Inoksious Compilation op Jobs. —The little tariff bill, which was rush ed through the House iu spite of the earnest opposition of tho Democrats, is drawn entirely in the interest of the manufacturers and the money power. It provides for no increase of tlie revenue; but the tax on gold sales bv brokers, which would have yield ed $8,000,000 i>er annum, was knocked out so as to save rich men and spec ulators from taxation, while addition al burdens was heai>ed upon the con sumers of hops and other consumers. The relief to the smaller growers, of tobacco, by allowing them to retail SIOO of their own production, was stricken out. Ot n ATLANTA I.KTTKH. Special Oorreipondenee Daily Tune*.) Atlanta, Jan. 28,1875. Up to date t ho Legislature lias done nohting of importance. The various committees are engaged upon the different bills referred to them. They are daily reporting, and by next week both branches will enter fully upon tho duty of finally disposing of bills. In the Senate to-day, Mr. Hudson, of Harris, Introduced a bill to allow the Governor to employ the convict force In constructing tho North and South Road from Columbus to Ham ilton. In the House of Representatives to-day, nothing of general interest was considered, oxeept the repeal of tlie act of tho last Legislature ex empting from taxation cotton and woollen manufactories. Messrs. Turnbull and Warner were in favor of tlie repeal, and Messrs. Walsh, Magill, Livingston and Calhoun, of Fulton, were opposed to it. The question was not taken when the House adjourned. The House of Representatives to day treated one of your citizens, Pe terson Thwcatt, former Comptroller General, very unjustly. They re fused to pay him, or allow him to sue the State. Mr. Grimes, in Introducing Mr. Thweatt’s claim yesterday, supported it In such a clear, sucefnt, able and forcible manner, as at once to attract the notico arid admiration of the House. The House then adjourned. Had the discussion continued, I doubt not but that Mr. Williams would have participated in the de bate, for ho was near Mr. Grimes, and seemed to feel considerable interest for the fato of his friend and coun ty man, Mr. Thwcatt. Although the newspapers hero and in other parts of the State seem quite unanimous for the jieople of the 9th District to send 11. 11. Hill to Con gress, yet the impression here with the “knowing ones” is that he stands no chance of a nomination. The chances are decidedly for Mr. Hell, t in; present member. Mr. James Norcross delivered an interesting lecture at James Hall, on the subject of free school instruction. A large crowd was in attendance, and his remarks and views were novel, but convinced many that such was tho plan that should be adopted to give general enlightenment. Senator It'esc may justly be termed tlie guardian of the treasury. Any measure looking to tlie appropriation of money from the State Treasury, unless It lie one of practical necessi ty, always meets his condemnation. He never yields to the allurements or fascinations that are held out iu sup port of unnocessar y measures of this class. SenatorPeavy insistson legislating from a high standpoint. Tlie conse quence is that lie is seen, at. least once a day, in the gallery, where the committee on “matrimonial eligibili ty ami attractions” meet. The pros pects aro now that his petition will be favorably oondstderod at least by one of the committee. Tho committee appointed by the Senate to examine the bonds of the Macon and Brunswick railroad, met at tlie Capitol last evening. The convention question is exciting considerable interest among the members of the Legislature. It is difficult to decide how the Assembly stands on this question, though it is considered that a majority of both brunches are preparing themselves for the coming contest. Several bills have been introduced looking to an early adjournment of the Legislature. The Legislature thus far has done nothing of import ance, but we presume they will go to work in earnest next week, and clean out the innumerable local bills, and pass some wholesome laws, that look to the general good ot the entire State. Occasional. CUPPINti*. —lt has boon discovered that Gen. Grant will have an extra day in the Presidency, since March 4th, 1877, falls on Sunday, and no inauguration can take place till the following day. A beef, weighing 2,07(1 pounds, measuring 5 feet 11 inches in height, was led about the streets of Augusta ou Monday. He was to lie slaugh tered yesterday, pro hotto publico. Another Brooklyn heart is bro ken. It’s owner is a widow of forty, and the person who broke it is a youth of eighteen. Suit for breach of prom ise; damages claimed, ten thousand dollars. Mr. Richard A. Proctor, the emi nent astronomer, in a letter to the London Times, speaks in high terms of our weather probabilities system, and urges the adoption of a similar system in Europe. It is understood that -the Pope’s golden rose will be bestowed, this year, on Queen Marie, tho mother of king Louise 11., of Bavaria, whose recent conversion to the Homan Cath olic faith created so much excitement in tho religious world. —Mr. W. J. Mi'Kio, who lived in Ourrytown section of Edgefield coun ty, 8. t'„ committed suicide last Sat urday night, by placing a pistol in his mouth and shooting himself in the head. Mr. McKie was said to be an opium eater. —A Connecticut publishing firm has entered suit against several members of Congress, for work and materials furnished In publishing their lives. Tho defendants claim that no charge was to have been made for publishing the biographical sketches in question. Mr. T. Lowtliia Bell, tlie great English iron-master,at a recent dinner given him at Pittsburg, said; “I have seen most of the mountains of iron ore in different sections of tlie world, but those greatest in quantity and richest in quality known to me, are in Alabama. —Two strangers walked into the German bank at Alexandria, Ya., a few days ago, and endeavored to in duce the cashier to come from behind the counter in order to tell him some thing very confidential. Their sus picious appearance led the cashier to decline, and ht> at the same time put his hand on a pistol in his desk, whereupon the strangers departed. The cashier and a messenger were tho only persons in the bank, and it is supposed foul play and robbery were the objects of the visitors. , EOIIGIA NT.W*. —Rome is at present almost crazy about gas. Gainesville is improving rapidly. Several fine residences and stores are going up. Red Bone Is said to boa clever little place, if it, hasn’t got a pretty name. —There ore twenty-iliree eases of small pox in one neighborhood in Clark county. -Miss Mary Elizabeth Sterling, aged elghty-one years, one of Urn old est residents of Augusta, is dead. --Capt. W. A. Kelley, who lately killed William Reilly in Augusta, has boon released on an enormous bail of $20,000. —A dog was recently found in a well at Talbot ton. It, is not known whether he fell in by accident or grew there. —An enterprising young clerk in Savaunuh pocketed SSO of his em ployer’s money, on left for New York. Harris says: It hasn’t been more than two hours and a half since Ma con had a masquerade hall, and now she’s advertising a domino party. —The Savannah Jockey Club are going to have five days of races about the Ist of February, A large crowd is expected. -For the past twenty years Savan nah has hail seven Mayors. Mr. Ed ward C. Anderson has been specially honored, having filled ten terms. Casey, tho man who was knocked in the head by two negroes in the cellar of his store, in Atlanta, has died of his injuries. The steamer Mary Carter lately broke some of her machinery. We are sorry to hear this, as Rome places great dependence In the little craft. Repairs will be made immediately. The freight depot at Kingsboro was broken open last Saturday night, and a box of potash, one of candies, undone of tobacco taken out. and the i trunk of Mr. M M. Join s broken open and all his clothing stolen. From the same paper we learn that I a negro boy, son of Matilda Findley, i fell in the fire and was burned to death, a few days since, at the Glade j mine, in that county. He was severe ly injured by falling in the fire some time ago. —The Gainesville Etude says; A stabbing affray occurred in our coun ty last week, in which Worth Barrett was severely injured. We are unable to get the 'particulars, or even the assailant’s name. Barrett is improv ing rapidly. It is rumored that a cotton facto ry is to be erected in Sweetwater, Teiin. Chattanooga is moving in the same direction. Rome is after an ar senal, and Dalton is waiting for the cotton factory that was appointed last summer to bring in its report. The passenger train on the Cen tral road was fired into twice last week each time about dark. One ball passed through the window, and the other lodged in the side of tlie ear. Fortunately, no one was hit. The fiend who would commit such an act is bail enough for anything. Mr. John Bonneau, the engineer of the Savannahund Charleston railroad who was so badly injured by tlie ex plosion of tlie boiler of bis engine on j Friday, is still alive, but the physi cians say his sight will lie got von should he recover. Mr. It. was to have been married the coming Thurs day. A serious difficulty occurred at Millstone, Oglethorpe county, on lust Saturday, it seems that Sir. John Eberhart, a citizen of Athens, while visiting bis country store, had an al tercation with Dr. Btribilling, in which tho former was knocked down. This drew It is two sons and Dick Ward into the difficulty. The result was the se rious stabbing of Ward and Wtribbling. The surving soldiers and sailors of the army and navy of the Confed erate States, residing in Bibb county, j have organized “the Bibb county as sooiation of Confederate soldiers.” 15.

From the Augusta Constitutiiiiiid isf of the 28tl\; The Coroner, Mr. T. A. Kunze, was yesterday afternoon informed that the body of a young child had been found some distance from the city, between the canal and river, and buried. Further informa tion could not be had then, and on account of the late hour at which he hoard of it, and the difficulty in teaching the scene before nightfall, Mr. Kunze decided to hold the in quest this morning, when all the fuets in the ease will be developed. * ♦ • ALA RAN A MttV>.
