The Blaok.and-Tan Convention
Organised and az Work.

ATLANTA, December 1.-THE organi
cation of the Convention was perfected
to day. A white man was elected
Sergeant alarms, and two negroes
doorkeepers and messengers. Mr.
Bradley, colored, from Boston, moved
to adopt the rules Of order Of the Mas
sachusetts House Of Representatives in
1858. Motion lost, amid applause.
A resolution was introduced to inform
General Pope that in obedience to
General Order No. 50 the Convention
was assembled and organized, and invite
his presence. 1t was amended to read
compliance, instead of obedience, and
adopted.
A resolution was adopted that bona
6de reporters of the press be allowed
seats in the convention, provided they
do not misrepresent the members or
action of the convention.
A resolution TO request repeal of the
cotton tax was tabled.
The Secretary was then instructed
to telegraph to Governor Jenkins for
two hundred copies of the proceedings
of the Georgia Convention.

WASHINGTON, December l0-There 1.
spirited contest between Cincinnati
and Chicago to secure all honors "a
accrue by holding Republican Radical
convention. Chicago offers titeen
thousand dollars toward the expenses
and Cincinnati bids literally.
The speech Of Mr.. Eldridge, OF Wis
oousin. 10 day, against the coniiscation
bill, was the ablest OF the session. ne
thought Thad. Stevens had better spend
the few moments of life remaining TO
him to make his peace with his God,
instead of trying TO wreak vengeance on
the widows and orphans Of the South.
This portion Of his speech created q
decided sensation.
There was an interesting conversation
in Ben. Buffers room to-day among the
Radicals, in which Wilson expressed
the opinion substantially that conhsca'
ton is dead. Wade is reported to have
said il was damned now, but Il could
have been carried a year ago. The dritt
of conversation indicated that Burbridge
and Forney will be selected by caucus
tomorrow.
There are rumors that secret caucus
of Republicans was held last night
Various. questions were discussed that
ofthe confirmation of Cooper as Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury caused much
discussion, and enough was indicated to
demonstrate that he will not be con-
frmed. Stevens confscation bill did
not meet with favor, and but few sup
ported it, as shown by the result in the
House to day. 1t is virtually killed.
The Whisky Distillers' Convention, in
session here, is not likely TO produce any
beneficial influence. The private views
of representatives can hardly be harmo
nized. The West wants low taxation,
so that the taxes may be collected. The
East desires high taxation, under diff
ferent system Of collection. Louisville
is represented by Capt, Sherley, j. B.
McIlvaine and Jules Dorm and Cincin-
natl by S. NJ. Murphy, Jas. Colville, &.
Dexter, Oliver Pervin and d. Gibson.
Mr. Theaker, of the Patent Office, to-
day received a notification from the
President that his resignation would be
accepted if rendered. 1t is understood
a difference of opinion between him and
Secretary Browning regarding the dis
tributon of the patronage of the Office
was the occasion of the notification,
which was written by the President him
self.

VERMONT.
Frightful Railroad Disaster near
Montpelier.

MoNTPELIEB, December ll.-One of
the most fearful accidents known in the
annals of Vermonttranspired to day at
Harlow bridge, near Mortified, on the
Vermont Central railroad. The bridge
was burned Sunday morning, and during
the week about a hundred men were
engaged in rearing a trestle work for
temporary use. Most of the employees
having dined at Mortified, they were
returning to work, about eleven and a
half miles from that town, in passenger
car, which was backed up to the trestle
works. By some uncomfortable forget
fulness, the engineer proceeded with them
at rapid rate and did not check
the speed until too late, and the whole
car, with its freight of ninety to a hun
dred men, was backed off the abutment
into the river below, a distance of sixty
feet the tender and engine following.
Fifteen men were killed instantly thirty
or forty have since died. Many were
injured-some seriously, and others, it
is feared fatally.

pA- Governor Humphreys, of Missis-
sippi, has received information from
gentlemen of high official and social
position, in different portions ofthe State,
expressing serious apprehensions that
combinations and conspiracies are being
formed among the blacks to seize the
lands and establish farms, expecting and
hoping that Congress will arrange plan
of division and distribution but unless
this is done by January next, they VIII
proceed to help themselves, and are
determined to go to war, being confident
that they will be yictors in any conflict
with the whites; aud furnish names OF
persons and places"
At the military headquarters OF the
4th military district similar information
has been received and referred 10 the
Governor for cooperation of the civil
with the military authorities. He has
accordingly, and with the full concur
renee and appreciation of Gen, Ord
issued his proclamation warning the
negroes that their expectations and
hopes are delusive and vain, and cannot
succeed. He further says to the blacks,
"wtat is not known of your plans and
conspiracies, will be discovered and
anticipated and the first outbreak
against the quiet and peace of society,
that assumes the form Of instruction,
will signalize the destruction Of your
cherished hopes and the ruin of your
race"
Gen. Gillem has authority TO arrest all
incendiaries who are stimulating the ne
groes to crime aud violence. All white
persons are warned carefully to keep the
peace and do no injustice to the black
population, and the blacks are told that
"the price of your lberty-in your pow
eriy and indigence-is toll, or starvation.
You cannot reap the rewards Of toll
unless you maintain peaceful relations
with the white race, and unite your
energies and your lAbors in an earnest
and peaceful effort to restore the waste
places and exhausted gamers OF our
impoverished land.
"You will now know that the United
States military authorities of this Dis
triot are not in sympathy with any
omissaries-Whiie or black-that urge
you to violence and wrong-doing. That
while you remain in peaceful pursuit OF
industry, and strictly observe and respect
the rights Of others, you will be protected
IN ell your rights, privileges, liberty and
property; but your only security and
hope Of prosperity is in honest labor and
virtuous peace"
We trust the prompt measures taken
by the Governor and the military will
prevent al disturbance, and that the
blacks may have the sense TO 20 to work
and endeavor to make an honest living
while the white misoreants who have in
cited them io violence may meet their
lust reward. Msy the lesson prove o
service 10 both blacks and whites

Governor Brownlow and Detective Baker.
NASHVILLE, December 3.


To tho Editors of the Union and Dispatch
In your issue of to-day, in commenting
upon the testimony before the committee
on impeachment, / find the following in
reference to the testimony of Detective
L. G. Baker:
"This fellow Baker testified before the
Impeachment Committee that he had
seen letter from Andrew johnson to
JEFF. Davis, written while the former was
Military Governor of Tennessee, in which
he communicated valuable information
to Davis, such as would have subjected
any man to hanging as spy; that this
had been taken off Andrew Johnson
table in Nashville that John W. Adam
son, No. 80 Myrtle street, Nashville,
Tenn, had given it to him; that Adam
son did not take the letter himself, but
that Governor Brownlow had employed
colored man to take it. This testi-
mony was published week or ten days
ago, but Gov Brownlow has remained
silent in regard to it. U
at is not probable that if Governor
Brownlow had come in possession of
such a letter as Baker processes to have
seen, he would have parted with it, or
that he could have kept the matter a
secret SO long. 1t is perhaps uncharita-
BILE to attribute Gov. Brownlow's silence
TO feeling of partisan vindictiveness
toward President Johnson, that an air of
probability might thereby be given to
the story of the perjured Baker. Why
this silence on the part of the Gov
ernor p
By Governor Brownlow / am directed
to state that he had not seen an account
of Bakers testimony until he read it in
your issue of to-day. Further, that if
Baker made such statement as is attri-
buted to him, it is wholly false and with
out foundation. The Governor says he
has no knowledge of such letter as is
referred to, and does not believe that
President johnson ever wrote letter to
JEFF Davis or any one else, giving aid
and comfort to the rebellion. He does
not believe that Andrew Johnson's
treacbery to the republic antedates his
accession to the Presidency.
The testimony of Baker, as published
in several papers, attributes the state
ment Governor Brownlow is alleged to
have made, to one of his sons. AS Gov.
B. he's but two sons, the reference is
made to myself or my brother, Captain
James P. Brownlow, of the regular army.
So far as / am concerned, the statement
is an unmitigated and unfounded false
hood. For my brother, who is in Arr
zona territory, feel authorized to make
the same statement
Finally, l would express the opinion
that any honest jury would convict Baker
of perjury upon his own testimony.
By publishing the above you will oblige
yours, very respectfully,
john BRoWYLow,
Editor of the Knoxville WhiG.

important Admission.

Horace Greedy, in late article in the
New York Independent, makes the fol-
lowing rather important admission he
says:
The two thousand FIVE hundred mill
lions of national debt, supplemented by
at least five hundred millions Of State
and local debts, form an aggregate nearly
equivalent to one.tenth of the property
of our whole people. In other words, he
who has property worth in all 500, 900,
may consider it mortgaged to the extent
of ten per cent by public debts; and,
including the current expenses Of gov
eminent, he must expect to pay twenty
per cent of his earnings in taxes. ="
The class who live by day labor almost
uniformly vote against US. Two thirds
of them work for Republicans whom they
respect"
1t is we'll to remember that one fifth
of all every man earns he gives to the
Government for taxes. 1t did not use
TO be so in Democratic days. But now
the people doat on the Government "
But the Government owns them, and has
mortgage on all they have. Paying
the debt in greenbacks would lift this
mortgage, aud it is one of the reasons
why we favor it We are gratifed to
know that fully two-thirds Of those who
live by their days labor are Democrats.
We have the hard handed sons Of toll.
The Republicans have the great majority
Of those who live by their wits, and exc
out by dishonesty and stealing what their
wits don tsupply.- Cincinnati Enquirer

neA. Illinois is redeemed from Radical
thraldom, and another State added to
the Democratic pyramid. The Cairo
Democrat, of the 9th inst, says: 1.-The
immense majority of 55,9s7 obtained by
Logan over Dickey in 1866 has been
overcome, and Illinois to-day stands
among the Democratic States of the
Republic.
The returns of the recent election
show, in sixty.eight counties, Demo
cratic gain of 50, 400. Extend the same
ratio to the thirty-four counties not yet
heard from, and we have further gain
of 1909 votes, or an aggregate gain in
the State of 6O,4Sl votes Among the
last named counties are embraced some
Of the staunchest Democratic counties Of
the State, such as Union, Clay, etc,
leaving no doubt that the vote has been
such as to preserve, if not increase the
ratio. Thus the Radical majority OF
1866 is wiped out, and a clear Democratic
majority ascertained of 4494."
