BAD THING OF Winch THE K. X. L. is
INNocENT.-The Gadsden Times says that, on
Monday last, we were in Jacksonville, and
witnessed sight sickering and revolving in
the extreme. After the arrest of Judge Pope,
who was SO feeble from i'll health that lie could
scarcely walk, ard as the guards were con-
ducting him to Jail, an aged, grey haired man
so afflicted with paralysis. that he had not
walked for years without the aid OF crutches,
too outraged to contain himself, cried out,
" Judge, are they taking you TO Jail? Well,
d-n me If I'd 90 with them p For this
monstrous utterance, soldier made tilt at
him with fixed bayone,. The cholcrlc old
man bestowed shower Of oaths ON the SOL
der, who turned away and left him. His
friends now coming up, got ii old gentleman
into his buggy, and started ont of town with
him. Lieut.. johnson, commands g the post,
came up about this time, and ordered the
buggy stopped, and arrested him. As he was
being conducted 10 jail, lic again cursed the
Lieutenant and guard, and for this was beaten
with his own crutch until it was broken over
him.

The Election in Georgia.

The election in our sister State began on Mon
day last. Shall tho proud old Commonwealth of
Geosia still remain under the government Of the
white race-shall its government bc administered
in moderation by the Anglo saxon-or shall it
be surrendered to the ignorance, tspacity and lust
of the negro and adventurer2 Weoshall soon see.
In our own State tho white people bad scarcely
the ghost of chance; b.. an Georgia it is NOT so.
We earnestly pray for her deliVeranco. The issue
presented is nightly ono, and. should arouse
every energy of tho mind, and enlist the active
cooperation of ai men who arc not lost to reason
and devoid Of honor, to the end Of over throwing
party that would blight the happiness of mill
ions and change the relative position of the races

An Incident of the Times.

Colonel r. A. Rouse, the magistrate of this
place, acting on this occasion rs the sherifs depu.

NUNS the word, save that EXPLANATIONS mightbe
heard like the above Of "Who'd sell a man OCT in
these kind of times? Who'd buy him out"
Finding no bid, Colonel Rouse passed from one
thing to another, in about the sams routine as
above. While dischnrging duty, hc did not np-
pear angry that no ono would buy man out in
such times. Some Of the crowd jokingly and
pleasantly, after the sale was over, told him to

Give Them the Preference by All
Maauc

We mean those freedmen who, in the late eloc-
tion, manifested conservative principles. Itis
undoubtedly the duty of whito men to give the
preference of employment to I'll colored men who
voted the Democratic ticket Fewer perhaps
voted wishtthc whites in Edgeheld than in any
other part of The State. The fewer, however,
the more easily reme We do not Imagine
that any argument is needed to prove to the white
people that they should do as we have said above.
Let those freedmen who have exhibited both good
sense and good feeling, be particularly remem-
bered and paronized by the whites. Under ex-
isting circumstances, their voting with the whites
was brave thing. They deservs to be rewarded.
Meat and bread to the freedmen are involved
in these elections. White men are not going to
feed their enemies. They will not nurse vipers
in their bosoms to sting them. The cclored man
is now choosing between carpet-bag spectators,
unknown strangers, and their own Southern white
people. As they choose, there will be peace and
mutual support, or antagonism and separation.
The colored men certainly know that nm election
is not thing done in corner or in the secrecy OF
league meeting, but in open day and before the
eyes of all men. Every vote cast is known and
noted down on paper. The watchful eyes of tho
white people have been upon the election as it
transpired; and every colored voter has made his
mark By his ballot whether no is friend or an
enemy of his white neighbors.
We greatly fear that vast amount of suffering
and misery (far greater than they have already
expcrieneed) is in store for the unhappy and dc.
luded blacks, the victims Of Radical ambition,
and Of the white scoundrels who arc deceiying
them to their ruin. If they could but be made to
understand that it is the sway of the party irl
power-the Radicals who profess to be their
friends and bcnefactors-which has brought tho
planting interests to such condition that they
can get comparatively little work, and, that tn.
perpetuation Of this rule is to perpetuate and ir.
crease the evil, they would spurn the white mis-.
creants who have cheated them with false hopes
and at the ballot b. would crush their ambitious
schemes based ION negro credulity and igno-
rnce.
But enough. We fear we but dart strawu
against the wind.

From the Columbia Phenir.
The Right Kind of Talk.

MR.EDIToR: Asa citizen heartily approx.
inp ofstie course which Col. Thomas has TAX
en- in his political role, wesworid recall to our
people the very appropriate language used by
him on Saturday evening last Reminding
the coloFed people Of the fair terms the whites
had held OUT them, in order TO preserve
the peace and harmony of the community,
1he told 5themrthat, if however,, ,they should
turn atteaf ear 70 their propositions, this they
must bear in mind That the colored man
need not expect to pass la,us for the ,chite men,
That to;u stand. To negro domination, said
10, the whites of the South. will never submit.
We will give what is fair and just. to the
black man; we will concede to him all that
reason and an enlightened christian view of
the matter may demand. But We will con-
cede no more. Remember, said be-. las sarne
jeering on the part of some black man was
heard that beneath the velvet glove of con-
ciliation, is tho mailed hand Of az unaltersble
resolve. And then going on, in tone that
thrilled the crowd, be added, this resolve
see in the dauntless brow and spirit-speakiDg
ewes of those around me. rread it in the
quiverirg lips I feel it in the recesses of MY
own swelling emotions. Bad, men may pre-
vail. The pride of the. South may have TO
pass with bowed head beneath the ignomirli.
ous yoke that radicalism North, and base
treason South, seek to fssten upon it. But
let us possess our souls in patience, There ia
God in Heaven. There is Democratic
host North, witha a flaming standard that is
waving in victory. ~ nm
"Trah crushed 10 earth will rise again;
The eternal years Of God are hers;
But error wounded writhes In pain,
And dies among its worshippers."

Towards the Equator7 Or Towards
the Poles?

the POlesf
It is very evident to our mind that wonderful
climactic changes ars taking place on the EARTH
how different are the scasors nowadays from
what they used TO be when we were school boy !
And it is dificult to tell exactly which way theie
changes are tending. Sometimes we think the
temperate regions in which we live, are veeriug
gradually towards the equator and then again,
as during the present cold and rainy spell, we
incline to The belief that We are gradually ap-
proachiug the North pole. How is it? Who can
throw light on the subject7 God forbid however
that We should be travelling N"rthward; that is,
unless we have already swung around the equator
and are going up on the other side. For in this
lntter case we should give the Yankees the go-by ;
and in course Of timo they would occupy our
country, and wo theirs. A very good country is
the latter if cleared of lis vipers. But then the
niggers are going along with us. That is.a hor-
rihle idea. We should prefer TO leave them here
to be ready when their friends come along. How
shall We arrange il? BAH it is hopeless casc
We shall never be rid either Of niggcrs or Yam
KEGS ce: tainly not of Yankees. For should we
leave cf travelling on the surface Of the globe,
aud pierce through the bowels Of tho earth, even
into shell or Chiun," there we should find them.
Both places would be full of them! In profound
desperation We give up the subject, aud proceed
to speak of the late terrible rains; which indeed
WAS our original intention.

believe, in running ordor, but unless q favorable
