HON. HENRY R. HARRIS
The prolonged contest at, West
Point on Thursday resulted in the
nomination of Hon. Henry H. Harris
for re-election ns Representative of
our District in Congress. Though
we opposed the nominal ion of Mr.
Harris, supporting the claims of our
section of the District and of our
personal friends, we shall now sup
port. the nomine# heartily. Wo have
never denied his personal worth, or
that ho has heretofore represented
the District acceptably and faithful
ly, and we therefore have no objec
tions that can stand against the
pronounced choice of the jmrty. Let
us ail forget or overcome the differ
ences as to sectional or personal pref
ereneesthat have heretofore divided
us, and sustain Mr. Harris as the
only man who can now make a claim
to Democratic support. There can
be little doubt of his re-election if the
Democrats nil over the District will
do their duty to their party and their
principles,

Servia from tho beglnniug, and has
by this means strengthened the sym
pathies springing from a common
religious creed. Bho has convinced
the Servians that she is their sole
political fjfiend—tha only povyer that
desires their independence of Turkey,
The other powers go so far as to de
sire for Servia freedom of religion
and a local government freo to a
great esteut of Turkish authority;
but they do not wish tho indepen
dence of Servia or any other Turkish
principality—they want to preserve
the integrity of Turkey as a bur to
Russian encroachment ami advance
towards the Mediterranean. Their
mediation contemplates the preven
tion of the deprivation of any of the
political and religious rights hereto
fore enjoyed by Servia, but at the
same time the maintenance of Turk
ish authority.
The question Is whether Turkish
bride and passion will, on the one
side, mako Turkey insist on depriv
ing Servia of rights which the West
ern powers wish her to retain; or
whether, on the other baud, Russia
will influence Servia to demand more
than tho Western powers are willing
for her to require. Out of these con
flicting purposes arid interests may
arise the long apprehended involve
ment of other European powers in
the difficulty. The coullict between
Turkey and Seivia now ftppeurs to
have reached a stage that must af
ford on early solution of these prob
lems. Either England and the other
Western powers must now restrain
Turkey to the requirement only of
such conditions as Russia will per
mit Servia to accept, or Russian In
fluence will constrain Servia to con
tinue the war to an extremity that
the Western powers will resist. We
will probably be quickly informed
of the next important movement.
In this connection tho ‘’Will of Pe
ter the Great,” which wo re-publlsh
od tho other day, becomes interest
log, as showing the traditional pol
icy and designs of Russia. Whether
It was really written by the great Pe
ter, or was the production of some
later ambitious Russian who desired
to give the sanction of sogreata name
to n paper really representing the
feeling of far-seeing Russian states
men, it cannot be denied that Russia
has adhered to its programme; and
that the present occasion is one on
which she may manifest in a most
notable manner the continued adher
ence to it.

LATEST BE TOM'S FBOM SAVANNAH.
From the Macon Telegraph of Friday.)
Additional refugees have arrived
from Savannah since our lust issue,
aud all bring the burrowing intelli
gence that tlie contagion is still
spreading. The number of uew eases
is variously given, uiso tIA) deaths
far Wednesday night and Thursday
morning, up to tho departure of the
Central train, As our iuformantsdis
agree in their iigures, we will not
state them, but refer our readers to
the telegraphic report, which is more
apt to be correct.
Among tlm deaths from yellow fe
ver we notice the names of Frank G.
Ash and Wm. 0. Ferrill, both pro
mising young men. The former had
just completed his eighteenth yoar
lost month, and the latter was but a
few weeks from college. He was a
son of the late JotiuC. Ferrill, a gen
tlemau well known in Unuuuial cir
cles throughout the South.
The mortuary reports for Wednes
day show that there were twenty-live
interments, of which twenty-two were
yellow fever pases, being a decrease
of eight in the total number of inter
ments, and an incrouse of one in the
deaths from yellow fever, as compar
ed with the previous day’s report.
The News of yesterday, speaking of
assistance received from abroad,
buys ; "In this hour of sad affliction,
in the midst of suffering, desponden
cy and gloom, the manifestations of
heartfelt sympathy and generosity
which reach us from far and near—
from our sister cities and towns of
tho South, and from tho great cities
of the North—coll for our deepest
gratitude. Wherever the cry of dis
tress has reached, it has been re
sponded to not only iu words of earn
est sympathy, but by material aid for
our suffering and destitute people.”
Telegrams were received Wednes
day from Jacksonville, Fla., from
Hon. G. R. Jones, Mayor, stating that
collections had been made in that
city for the relief of the destitute of
Savannah, and supplies Shipped.
Messrs. A. S. Bell & Cos,, or Albany,
Ga., telegraphed stating that they
had collected a considerable amount,
and asking what disposition they
should make of the funds, in their
bauds. A reply was returned re
questing them to purchase poultry
and ship by express.
From Atlanta, 00l 8. M. Inman,
Chairman of the Atlanta Benevolent
Association, telegraphs that $1,500
had been raised for tlm relief of Sa
vannah, also gave notice of a ship
ment of flour.
The Macon Benevolent Association
sent, one coop of ducks, two coops of
pigoous, one coop of chickens, and
one box of cordials, jellies, etc.
The several absent physicians have
returned, among them wo notice Drs,
Waring and Thomas. Tho corps of
nurses has been reinforced somewhat,
arrangements have been made for
keeping the drug stores open through
tho night, nnd indeed everything
within human power is being done to
arrest tho plague.
Several additional stores have been
taken tu Macon by Savannah firms,
and their opening’may bo daily look
ed for.
Mr. 8. L. Brown states, through
theHandefsville Herald, in answer to
a query, that in moving a house, if
the house rests directly on rollers
three feet in circumference, tho
building moves six feet with every
revolution of tlie rollers; but if the
house rests on axles in the rollers, it
will move only three feet with each
revolution.
Farmers living below Abbeville, in
Henry county, complain that they
qave suffered considerably from the
long dry spells. Several tell us that
the trees in theif neighborhoods, in
some instances, had been killed by
the drought.. Not more than half
crop* will bo made in Ithe localities
referred to.— Eufaula Times.
I : ftwnruiml<tn<l.|
jhliknjof the Times:
Up clearer illustration of the truth
of, any statenfcent, as to the temj>er of
tliocc who iUNHUne the right to con
trol the people by party machinery,
could be afforded, than that which is
to be found in tho fire that has been
directed against Bio, ffinoc I ad
dressed myself through your column!
to the gentlemen who have expressed
a wish that 1 should become a can
didate for Congress. My litter was
respectful in its tone; there was no!
a personal allusion in it; it presented
views respecting tho stato of the
country, entitled, us it seemed to me,
to consideration; and it expressed
my willingness to submit my name
to tlie people, without first asking
leave of a Convention, It is not my
purpose to reply to the censures of
those who seek to perpetuate the
ascendancy of tho seif-constituted
bodies which have so long controlled
the people. They are as baseless as
they are ungenerous.
But it is proper to state distinctly
the ground upon which I stand, and
to vindicate the great principle which
I have asserted : the right of the peo
plo to act for themselves, indepen
dently of the dictation of rings,
cliques, concusses, or any other con
trivance to control their free action.
Never was there a better time to
try this great issue, tho supremacy
of rings against the supremacy of
the people, than tho present. The
State of Georgia will give u great ma
jority for the candidate of the Demo
cratic party for the Presidency, and
its candidate for the Gubernatorial
chair; there is no candidate of tlie
Republican party for Congress; the
field is clear. It is the right of the
people to choose between those who
stund before them as candidates for
Congress, both upholding the policy,
the measures, the great national is
sues of the Democratic party. They
are to decide who slmll represent
them. lam ready to übido the re
sult.
Tho attempt to make it appear
that my course is hostile to tlie inter
ests of the Democratic party, is at
once unjust, ungenerous, and un
worthy of a great cause.
Having stated that my political
opinlohs, early formed and freely ex
pressed in Congress, urul before t lie j
people, have undergone no change, 1
I am charged with a purpose to de
coy tho members of the Democratic
party into my support, while it is
well known that I have always is en
a Whig. It is true, that I was a
Whig; I followed the banner of that
greut party from tho day when it
was first displayed, until it wont
down in tho conflict of 18(10. I may
borrow Grattan's expression in re
gard to|the brief existence of Irish in
dependence: “I stood by its cradle;
I followed its hearse.” I canvassed
tho State of New York in tho event
ful year that saw Mr. Lincoln borne
into tlie Presidency by tho triumph
of a powerful sectional party. The
day before that overwhelming defeat
of the South, I wus the guest of Mr.
Fillmore at Buffalo, and leaving his
table, I went to a large hall and ad
dressed a great concourse of people,
iu behalf of tho Bell and Everett
ticket.
From that day to this, I have stood
in tlie ranks of the Democratic party,
where thousands of old Whigs stuud
with me. It is idle to attempt to
show, that I antagonize tlie Demo
cratic party, because J decline to up
hold a system of party machinery,
that lias alroady lasted too long;
that haa repeatedly thwarted tho will
of the people; and that is for the last
time striving to control the great,
powerful, free masses, who will
henceforth assert thoir independence
of such dictation,as Samson burst the
withs that bound his limbs.
lam right, dome what may, I shall
stand up for the great principles that
I have asserted. No misrepresenta
tions can move me; no opi>osition
can intimidate me. I look with un
shaken confidence to the rosult.
Of course, I desire to succeed in the
caurass upon which I am about to
enter ; but if I had no personal inter
est in it, I should contribute what I
could to give a complete triumph
to the principle that the people are
supreme. The best service that any
one can render at this time to the
Democratic party, is to deliver it
from the power of the rings that have
too long dominated over it. No freo
government can iong maintain the
spirit of liberty, that submits to the
domination of a few men who con
trol the people for tho advancement
of thoir own ends.
As I have already said, I have
steadily endeavored to advance the
policy, the measures and the candi
dates of the Democratic party
since the war. My relations
to that party have undergone no
change, but I resolutely refuse to
acknowledge my allegiauee to the
rings that undertake to control its
action. I have expressed my willing
ness to submit my name to the peo
ple ; I shall adhere to that position,
and I am confident that the people
will vindicate their right to act for
themselves.
One great recommendation of Mr.
Tilden is, that he proposes to reform
the Government; to restore it to its
former simplicity and purity, nnd to
give the country an economical ad
ministration. He has broken more
rings than any man who has yet un
dertaken to control public affairs.
I cannot expect to escape the oppo
sition of those who live in the suu
shine of party favor; who tolerate
no independence of thought or ac
tion, and whose power would perish
in the very hour that tlie people rise
to an active control of their own
Government. 1 may be misunder
stood by some, aud misrepresented
by others; but I hope to advance the
cause of free government, whatever
opposition I may encounter. It may
be an unjust and uugenerons opposi
tion ; but I shall appeal directly to
the people.
All that I ask is| that they shall
hoar me. I shall hope to meet the
nominee of the convention in the
presence of tho people, and I am (gjn
lldeut that we shall bo able to con
duct tho canvass in the spirit that
ought to characterize the discussion
of great public questions, that affect,
not only the success of the party, but
the nobler and moro important inter
ests of the Republic.

The Russian Galon, tho most influ
ential and heat informed paper iu the
empire, writes iu astrain highly indi
cative of the latent animosity always
existing between the Russian and
the German people, however close
may be the .alliance between the two
courts. The Golds says that it is in
possession of proof that Germany is
secretly perfecting her means ot tak
ing tho field ut u moment’s notice,
and bitterly accuses her of desertion
iu the matter of tlie Berlin note and
the tendency she manifests to
support a settlement in the East upon
terms to which Russia is hostile.
Zeilung vigorously
replies that the alliance of the two
powers is not an essential to Europe,
and it sees no reason why it should
not be exchanged for another. Of
the war that will close the last act of
the great drama of the Eastern ques
tion, it says; "Russia, of course,
will endeavor to gather round her all
the Sclavonic races, and, with the as
sistance of this confederacy, attempt
to Impose her will upon t,lie world.
This cannot bo permitted; such an
effort cau easily be frustrated by an
alliance between Austria, England
and Germany, and tlifs union be
tween the greatest naval power and
the greatest military power on the
earth, thus seconded by Austria, can
easily teach the disturber of Eu
ropean peace that her overweening
ambition must bo restrained within
proper limits. Russia,” it adds, "may
possibly rely upon the aid of France,
but in everything she Ims said or
done upon this subject has proved
that the Duo Do Gazes, supported by
the general wish of the country, will
never willingly be dragged into the
Eastern complication. Even with the
aid of France, the Russian people,
semi-barbarous, and with their mil
lions scattered over a wide and thin
ly-populated area, could never hope
of withstanding tho might of the
coalition that would thus be arrayed
against her.”
