A MistakC.

We do not think there is any ground Tor
the apprehensions which some of the Re
publican papers seem to have Ill regard to
the effect which the Connecticut election
will have on the business of reconstruction
Ill the South. They say they fear that this
election will mislead the South into the be
lief that greater reaction has taken place
III northern sentiment than is really the
case, and might induce q change of pur
pose on our part This patriotic anxiety,
We repeat, is not well-fOundod, The pur-
pose of the Southern people to make the
best of bad bargain will not be affected
by the Connecticut election. They will go
along as they are going-they will proceed
under tho military bill to reconstruct, I'M
less the Injunction prayed for by MISSISSIPPI
pi and Alabama is granted ; and, III that
case, it would not do for them to disregard
the law as expounded by the Supreme
Court Of the United States. If that in
junction is granted, and the military ma
chinery bill is declared null and 'oid, the
prob bility is that they would proceed I'M
der their present organizations until Con
gress forced them to different course,
against the decision Of the Supreme Court,
in which event they would have to yield to
force, as heretofore. The course to be ia
ken by the Southern States in any event is
not half SO uncertain as the effect which
would be produced upon the country at
large. It would be for others to determine
how much Of that sort of legislation the
country could stand

YVES engaged in constructing O fence between the
lot Of the deceased and that of the prisoner. On
the 18th of November, the day previous TO the
death of tho deceased, having constructed about
half the fence, ho went to the prisoner anG asked
him if he not going to have tho other half put
up. The prisoner replied that he would put up his
half when he got ready, and remarked that if no
(the witness) or any one else came upon his lot
trespaasins, he would shoot them.
The evidence FOR the prosecution here closed
and that Of the defence was proceeded with
Hon. Geo. Davis one of the counsel for the de-
fence, here arose and explained that it was the in
tentlon Of the counsel for the defence TO mpeach
the witness. Israel F. Koith, and prove that he
had sworn falsely-that no testified diff rently as
TO material points of the case at the previous
examination before tho Magistrate. To this end
the written testimony on that occasion was then
produced and read which JAS. Shadkelford ESQ,
the Magistrate before whom the case was fret ex-
amined, deposed that the paper which had Just
been read, contained the substance of the testi-
mony Of the witness, Keith, as given before him.
According to the writing, the testimony then given
by Keith mentioned that he saw the prisoner stag
ger, and felt something like blow given over his
shoulder, but did not see the blow passed. The
witness was then examined as regarding his Der.
sonal recollection of tho testimony of Keith at
that time. His statements were rather confused
and conflicting, Except concerning the blow, in
regard to which ne was positive-apparently pro-
ceeding from an imperfect recollection of the re-
mainder of the facts.
Several other witnesses who were present at the
first examination were called, and corroDorated
the statement of Mr.. Shackelford regarding
the blow. Another fact was brought out on their
examination, that Keith said nothing of the ap-
pearance of Mrs. Carr, the wife of the prisoner,
On her piazza on the morning of the homicide
when examined before the Magistrate; and that
during the anair the pistol Was snapped but once.

account of $l5 for articles purchased in the
store, and another store bill, were allowed, and
that a small cash balance was paid to A. P.
Turner. Again, he has carried the paper for
this city and adjoining camps, and protested to
collect the accounts for subscription, since Oct
LIST of last year. Out of nearly $4,000 due,
from this source alone, he returns total cash
receipt of less than $500.
In his card above Mr.. Turner claims to own
one third of the establishment. We are Will
ling to admit that if he had been permitted to
manage the business affairs and keep the books
of the concern, for few months longer, in the
way he has managed and kept them, he would
not only have made it appear that he owned
the whole concern, but also that the real own
ers were heavily in his debt. The material In
the present WORLD Office was bOughtby Mr..
O'Meara alone, for himself and Mr.. l. II. Bow
man, and for no one else. Mr.. Turner is the
agent of Mr. FL. G. Street; he knows that Mr..
Street sold fVe-twelfths of the ofice-the share
represented by Mr.. o. Meara; and he also knows
that Mr.. ]. FL. Bowman's share in the old es-
tabIishment was equal to that sold by Mr.. IL.
G.. Street. He also knows that Mr.. Street new
er had dimes worth in the type, presses and
material which Mr.. O'Meara purchased from
Mr.. Thos. Foye, in Dec. 1866. Nor had any
other member of the old firm of /. II. Bow
man & Co., as it was constituted prior to Oct.
1st 1866, an interest in that purchase, except
Mr.. l. H. Bowman. Mr.. Turner has never
given to us any other evidence of claim to
one-third of the WORLD than his own word,
and that he has, to our heavy cost, too often
proven utterly worthless. We should like to
know when and by what process he became the
owner of zone undivided third" In April last
he stated to a gentleman, i'll confidential con-
versation, that Mr. L HI. Bowman owned five
twelfths of the WORLD establishment We
have above shown that, as the agent of Mr..
Street, he was aware of the fact that that gen.
tleman had sold other fve-twelfths, and, until
he can show that there are ffteen-twelfths IN
the WORLD establishment, he but cOnvicts
himself of both fraud and falsehOod in claim
ing to own lone undivided third"
The ledger kept by Mr.. Turner is in our pos
session. Several prominent business gentle
men of this city, to whom we have shown it,
declare that never have they seen accounts SO
wretchedly kept, or which bore stronger proofs
of deliberate fraud There is not one account
properly stated in the book.
Mr.. Turner has raised this issue with us.
We now offer to show his own ledger to any
person who cares to call and see it, and we
challenge any friend of Mr. Turner's to exam
inc it and then say, in candor, that he CFurner)
is an honest or correct business man. This
very ledger is full of damning proofs against
him. We rest here for the present.

GERRrTT SMITH AND HORACE GREELEY.
These two notorious men are now coupled to-
gether in most abusive articles, and, strange
to say, Il Radical newspapers. They were
both present in Richmond at the hearing and
release of Jefferson Davis, and both made
speeches in that city to a mixed assemblage OF
blacks and whites. To their honor be it said,
their addresses were vastly different from the
inhammatory harangues of the political noun
tebanks Wilson and Kelley. Gerritt Smith did
not hesitate to admit that the North was partly
To blame for the rebellion. He said boldly that
the North had been equally guilty with the
South in establishing and maintaining the ex-
istence of slavery, and added: " We of the
North reaped far more gain from it than you
did-you but held the coW-we MIXED it." He
took fhesposition that when the strife had ad.
yanced to great civil war, with de .fiactO
government carrying on war as an independ-
emit power, the people of the States in revolt
were no longer traitors. He declared that he
was "averse to having his cOuntrymen (SOuth-
erners) go down to posterity branded as trait
ors." He wanted to lift them up from their
supposed degradation, because he regarded
"the North as under common responsibility
with the South for the late war" He de-
nounced the proposition of Thad. Stevens for
coniscating the property of. the Southern peo-
pie, and said Congress ought to relieve the
South from direct Federal taxes for some
years, in order that they might re-establish IN
dustry and recover that prosperity upon which
depended so much of the future material pow
er of the nation. Philadelphia dye.

and in this they were right. The South very
properly commended that the States were the
cole arbiters of the question whether slavery
should or should not exist in them, each State
for itself They never sought to enforce slave
ny upon States where it was not. Only the
Abolitionists interfered with the rights Of the
