Governor Smith left Atlanta on Thors- day, on a visit of a faw dsya to ilaeon, to see al>ont the affairs of the Macon A Brunswick Railroad, now nnder the man agement of the State. The Rome Commercial gives a timely admonition tersely thus : “Look out for the political bargain. The party of the first part—Independents. The party of the aecond part—Radicals.” The Augusta Chronicle, in an editorial on the subject of tha late nomination in the Egbth Congressional District, says catoe the Federal edict to control the Southern e»t«te* by the rule of the bayo- did think that a little delay a large ahsre of the land by outrageous taxation ; and, with the a*«i-'unce of the authorities at Washington, they have turned the elections into farce.

Common decency required that the white people of the Bonth, when accused of toch wide-spread Uwleaeneae, should have had a chance to be heard in reply to lbs chargee made ageinet them. Out the Adminiatration haa baetily judged first, on erpnrte statementa, and if the people of the South ere to have a hearing at all, it ia to lie after punishment I The Northern papers received yesterday anfflae to show exactly how it was done. There haa been a preconcerted rush to Washington and I-ong Branch by the that though Mr. Stephens bad publicly office-seeking carpet-baggers from nearly declined a re-election, he "had written to every Southern State—ell tailing the same some of hia friends that he would accept , pre arranged tale of outrage and intimi- the nomination of the party if tendered to dation. All of them had reports of a him." So we mey look for hia accept, j general nprieing of “tha rebels" of the South to defy the liwi. Home of them The Montgom**/ Adrertuer make* this dolef*° import of the value of 'he currency inane 1 by ita city aod State : “Warrant*, i^ned aod payable by the city, are worth 75 rente, in trade. Htate money brioga 75 eenta ami the horae aboo atuff ia not negotiable or in circulation. Hpeenlatora have absorbed it all at about CO centa on the dollar. County warrants are laughed at." Large quautitiea of bacon for the “ovorfl >wed" continue to arrive at dia- fribu'ing poiti’a in the aeveral Congres sional Dihtrio'H of Alabama, but it ia said that ordera have been received not to din- tribute it yet. What does this mean ? If that bacon was intended to relieve the real sufferers by the oveiflow, it ought to have been distributed long ago. If it ia intended as a bribe to the negroes to come out and vote tho Radical ticket, the money has been squandered in buying old bacon at high prices, when it would have been time enough to buy tho new fall curiDg in October, ao as to have it ready for dis tribution at the polls on the days of the November oSection. HULL PKLHAI,N t’Otk A Nil HTORY. We find in the New York TivuJt (strong Radical paper; the following specimen story of the outrages committed by the white people of the South, carried to Washington by Congressman Pelham and hia confederates: Keprcsaii'ative Charles Pelhaiu, of one of too mountain districts in that Htate, who recently arrived there from tho North, was compelled to leave, under the cov* r of night, the county seat of one of tho counties of Ins own district to e-icspe from a contemplated attack upon hia life, of which he was secretly warned by a faithful negro. Home of the while peo ple of tho town, ii appears, had asaembled inuuediati ly aftor the arrival of Mr. Pel- ham, and mutually swore that there should ha one le-s It -dioal mcmheT of Congress there, and before morning. This intelli gence a as secretly convoyed to Mr. Pel- haiu, who left the hotel uiiobaerved in the early evening, and walked with a ne gro guide ten miica through the wo4>ds to a railroad station. 'the postinaater of ono of the towns of Mr. Pelham's district subsequently in formed biin that he did not dare, for hia life, to lodge him for tho night, because hia (Pe ham’s) vote for the civil rights bill bad so incensed the whites of tho country, that if ho did they would kill tho post master and Pelham both before morn ing. s ill be aeou that no time or place is given in thm statement. Pelham evident ly did not want too cloao an inquiry into the matter. We have no in ex- preening our belief there ia not one woid of truih •« ,l * The people of hia “moun»*-'*» district" (which he represents Mt ono of the “overflowed" when he wants to obtain some of that bacon for it) ought to compel him to toll when and where thin affair took place, and tlion investigate the matter to see how much truth thero is in it. This course ought, imb ed, to bo pur sued in reference to overy Radical report of outrage by the whites. Let a thorough iuquiiy be instituted by the Democratic Executive Committee, or the county offi cials, and let the people of the whole country see how greatly the whites of the South have houn slandered by tho office- Keeping crowds who have been to Wash ington to report “outrages." BAPll.R’M PI.CPUK. The Montgomery Ilepublican publishes the wnttuu pledge which Rapier gave to the ltust* od aud Robinson faction at Union Springs, in consideration of their permitt ng his nomination for Congress. Tho Republican an 1 the Robinson party are now tuuking wurujon him, because they say he is not keeping the pledge-lie is not supporting the ticket of their fac tion as tho “regularly nominated one," but ia declaring that he will not under take to decido which is the regular tioket. He duos this to avoid offending tho H:ro- bach faction. The following is the pledge: State op Ai.aiiama, > County of Bullock, August 'll, 1874.) I do hereby pledge myaelf to do uo h- ing detriiuoi.tal to the success of the UobitiHou and lluckley faction m the com ing election, and will use such means ss 1 can houorah y do to promote their suc cess, believing that their ticket ia the reg ularly nominated tioket for that couuty.

'1 hey have made such hor rible use of their unrentra ne J power that Houth Carolina has become a melancholy and disgusting spectacle to all the world, and many of the best friends of the col ored race have come to doubt their capa city for self government ; at least, until they have parsed through some genera tion* of totebge. If anything cau be done to save th*-in from them elves, and banish the villainous a Iven i nrer < to w hum they have given their confidence, in Heav en's name let im do it. But insolent car- pet-baggers like Patterson, clamoring for more troops, more Fe lersl interference, more buying and aeliing of vo er< and legislator*, more bayonet taws to support awiudling nol -clerks and ruscaliy iagis ters, are public enemies who ought t hunted out of the State.

Others hod hair breadth escapes of their own to tell with effected horror and affright; while others de clared that they were afraid to return an- Itas under the protection of bayonets! Falsehoods enough to overtask the puni tory resources of the “bottomless pit" were invented for the emergency aud poured into too willing ears. The plot, concocted in seoreoy, was pushed to iu consummation at onoe, and the conspira tor* are now either laughing in their sleeves at the dupes whom they so easily deceived, or rejoicing with confederates over the anticipated fruits of their scheme. We hope that there ia at ill spirit and resolution enough in the white people of the South to make thia outrage upon their liberties and rights recoil upon the heals of its perpetrators. Thia oan be done by fcuoh a rally in aupport of their Congres sional and other candidates at was never before known in our history. Let not a white vote be lost. Let no labor, expense, influence or power be sperel to vindicate the right of local home government and free elections. A rebuke, such as a peo ple thoroughly aroused can give to this indignity through the ballot-box, will free us from its repetition for all time. We believe that (len. Grant will find that enemies in disguise intended to “head off" him, as well as the white people of the South, by this proceeding. Whether he seeks a third term or not, this cruel rebuff of an intelligent people, who were beginning to cultivate a confidence in his growing friendliness towards them, re presses any rising disposition to acquiesce, iu a third term as a means of securing peace aud equality in the Union. The nomination may bo obtained for General Grant by the support of the office-held- ers and negroes of the South, but this party cannot possibly carry moro than two of the Houthoru Htates for him after nomination, and the Northern Htates which he could carry would be very few. But with tho support of the whites of the Houth, the result in this part of the Union at least would have beeu very different. Ho the imposition of militsry rale takes from our Houthern politics one disturbing eleuiont that might have broten old party organixations, and put* an etd to all dis tracting speculation whether we might nob by making an alliance with General Grant, soonest secure a deliverance from tho evils and wrongs that have so long oppressed otir seotion. From the New York Tribune (honest Republi can), let Instant. Fstlereea's Feeeeee. Senator Patterson has returned from Houth Carolina in a terrible fright. He has uo luaauer of doubt that the War of Usees is coming off immediately. All over the Htate there are murders aud rob- buries without a moment's pause. Thore is a netwoik of “rifle clubs," under the control of one secret leader, who has only to whistle and immediately 25,000 armed Democrats will spring from the hiding- pianos where they have been drilling in profound sileuce all summer, aud will proceed to repo it the uiaaaacre of Ht. Bartholomew's Day. It ia true there is a negro mill ia; the Htate administration ia outirely in the hands of the Republicans; and thoro arc Federal troops at York, Co lumbia and Newberry, who in*y be relied upon in case of necessity. But all these considerations give Mr. Patterson no com fort. If the m gro militia were called out, he believes it would be attacked aud cut to pieces; and ho is confident that the next election will be fraudulently carried by the Douiocrats, although their oppo nents have a great majority of the popu lation and control the entire election ma chinery. We can understand how Mr Patterson must moan, and wring his bauds, and shed salt tears by the bucket, at the bare thought of anything like dishouest elec tions. After he was chosen to the Sen ate three members of the South Carolina Legislature made affidavit that he had agreed to pay them various sums, from to g>l,<MK), to vote for him, and on this charge he was arrested and held for trial. The frieudly Legislature thereupon deposed from offioo the magistrate who had committed him, and also removed the ConunitMoncr of Jurors, appointing m his place a negro who immediately pro- ocedud to summon the Grand Jury in a manner contrary to law, thus invalidating all ita proceedings—very much of course WHAT HE SAID AT THE MEMPHIS INDIGNA TION MEETING. From tbe Avalanche's Report.] Mr. Davis said : Friends aod country- eti, you have assembled to night, n t r tbe bare pnrp«me of g ving that ex pression which humanity demands, but you have assembled fra ho ier duty. It is what you owe to yourselves ; what you owe to your posterity ; whst you owe to the living; what you owo to the gallant dead, who died fighting lor the sacred cause of Houthern independence. And you men of Polk, of Grundy, of Gd son, beware that you do not dishonor the dead nor tarnish tho living You are not here to express your horror of a particu lar crime It is a crime to be puui-hci and to be punished as it deserve**, a crime that appeals to the officers of the law that th* y will do their d. ly \ou have come here to say to the country abroad that you are Hot a race of assansina, that yon don't wear mask-, and that in asserting your rights you will go forward to the end of your lives never wearing a mask nor ever blackening your face. (Applause.; I was the other day particularly struck at reading the teatimo- uy of a negro before one of the investigat ing committee* in Houth Carolina. He was asked if he knew Wade Hampton. Oh, yes, they hail been raised together from childhood. D*d he believe lua* he was engaged in auy of those Ku ktux out rages? No, he did not. Why? “Be cause," s*id the negro, “if Masse Wudo Hampton had had anything to do with those men, it would have beeu the iehite men that he icouUl hare been after and xot the n eg roe*." (Applause.; The Houthern men are the only friends the negro has in any part of the world. It becomes us to be their friends. Ev ery Southern man's memory runs hack to tbe good old black woman who nursad him in his infancy, and thou to the boy who hunted aud fished with him, uurf the man who learned him to ride. All remember with what joy and manifes tations of lovo the nurse welcomed him back home after he had reached manhood. While these memories cluster around him he can never forget them when they stood iu those relations which I believe God in tended that they should occupy. It these relations have been disturbed it has been by those incendiaries who havo couie in among us only to stir up strife. It now rests with you to show to tho world ti nt yon are incapable of secret crime ; that yon hate tho men who wear tbe mask or black the face: and that whatever is necessary for the public peace, that yon will do in au open manner, with the visor raised and tho helmet open. [Applause.] Ihe oolored people require tbe white man to pro vide for and look after them now as much aa they ever did. Now, there are men who think that in the event of a war of races tbe blacks would be extermiu .ted and that wo would theu havo a happy and roseate future. I have no sympathy with those men. The negroes were my friends in the olden time, and took earo of our wives and children and homos in the time of war. They brought this grand Missis sippi Valley iuto cultivation, und are the only ones I think that can or will be < able to cultivate it. [ Appl.use.J But I don't intand to touch upon a questioi upon which every man has already formed an opinion. I have no feeling against the oo’oicd men. The only in.bg .ation which I feel is nga : nst those white men who have carried them into the position which they now occupy. to Mr. Pstterson'a disappointment. Tbe i legal i The mode for extorting the pledge was, according to Rspier's stateiuout, the most flagnnt act of political violenoe yet com- mi ted anywhere in the Booth. It denied and interfered with the political rights of the people of a whole Congressional District, ltap er says that be had to give it to prevent bloodshed and to obtain for ths delegst-.s of tbe Convention tha privi- leg* of nominating the man whom they weva instructed to nominate. And yet wa hast of oo proceeding* under the Ku- Xlnx law against the perpetrators of thia •spiralled polities! outrage! prime agent in this legs! operation was the same ex-Attornev General Chamber lain whom Heuator Patterson ia now sup portiug for Governor. There caq be no doubt, therefore, that if there is any ono thing John J. Patterson does despise more than another it ia fraud in the elec tions. Nevertheless he believes “the fu ture of tbe party in Houth Carolina ia bright," under certain conditions. He nmht have more troops and a third term for General Grant. As for the troops, hia constituents “cannot get along without them." There are soldiers enough, he confesses, “to preserve order;" but he wi<.ho« them to be distributed all over the Htate at election time, and on ter their protection aud influence he would have uo doubt of the result. We should not have muoh ourselves. Mr. Patterson seems to have inoculated Attorney-General Williams with some of hia own terrors, and tbe two statesmen are going to Long Brenoh to urge upon Gen. Gr.nt immediate Interference. It will seem to uioat reasonable men that if there it auy pan of the United Btatew where the colored people enjoy a pretty liberel exercise of their righta, that State ia Booth Carolina.
