More Revelations,

General A. r. Wright, of Georgia, a
delegate to, and one of the Vice-Presidents
of the Tammany Convention, makes some
rich disclosures concerning the pressure
brought to bear upon Southern members.
Among other things he says:
Especial agents, with well-hlled purses.
were sent throughout The South to urge
Southern delegates to attend the New York
Convention. 1t was deloately hinted to
these that their Democratic friends 10 New
York, in view of their pecuniary embar-
rassments, had generously provided funds
to deiray their expenses. The whole power
of the World and Wall street was brought
to bear upon the Convention in every con-
ceivable manner. They packed the galle-
ries and lobbies of Tammany Hall with
Chase adherents. They besieged delegates
in their rooms, ran them down on the
streets, followed them in the hotels and
club rooms, watched them by day and by
night, cajolled, and treated, and wheedled,
and persuaded, and threatened, and bribed
to secure the nomination of Mr.. Chase, and
failed
He furthermore asserts that the World
has, since his nomination, been doing all
in its power to defeat Governor Seynour's
election. We quote:
"Ever since the adjournment of the New
York Convent, the HOrid aud its Wall
street hackers have been iRdustriously la
boring for the defeat OF Seymour and
Blair. 1t has inaugurated and followed up
a system of personal abuse of General
| Grant which was intended to aud has
shocked the decent and respectable people
of both parties, North and South, and
caused thousands of honest men to support
him who otherwise would not have done SO.
1t has attacked his character as man, as
sailed hun as gentleman, and impotentIy
sought to tarnish his reputation as a soldi :
and great military ehieftain. The World
has added teR-fold more to the strength of
Grant than the tribune aad Times COM
biued.
"While the World was thus openly at
work for the Radical parry its chief owner,
who is leading member, and, we believe,
chairman OF the National Central Executive
Democratic Committee, has failed to take
such action for the success OF the parry as
the condition Of the CANVASS required, and
has heretofore been usual Indeed, we
have the very best authority for saying
| that he suffered more than thirty days to
elapse after Mr.. Seymour's nomination be-
1 fore he advised or consulted with hat gem
teman, although living in the same State,
and but few hours ride from him We
| have been reliably Informed, further, that
when he did open communication with our
candidate that il was doue with a damand
that Mr.. Seymour should promise TO per-
nit Wall street to name the Secretary of
the Treasury in case of bis election, This
Impertinent and disgraeeiu' demand WAS
| promptly and iorcihiy rspeQe3 ~ M.

AnecdOte OF General Grant

After the capture of Vieksburg steamers
ran in there to take furloughed troops up
the river, charging as high as thirty dollars
for a passage from Vicksburg to Cairo
Says our author:
The steamer had its decks crowded with
soldiers. Grant asked man standing on
the wheelhouse and giving orders loudly.
" Are you captain of this boat ?"
"Yes, General"
"How many soldiers have you on board"
" About l250.n
" What have you charged them for fare
From en- to twenty-five dollars each,
General"
"Ten to twenty-five dollars each Is
that all Why, that is too moderate. 1t
is pity you should have to take the boys
for SO small sum. You had better wait a
while"
Speaking to the officer on board, he
walked away. The steam whisted, the
bell rang, the wheels began to move
slowly; but. for some reason, she was not
cast Off. The men could not understand il
until, in few moments, an order came toy
the guard to keep the steamer until the
captain paid back all over seven dollarr
taken for fare from each osficer, and ali
over Eve dollars from each soldier, and the
order was obeysd. The men knew they
had been viclimiGe d, but felt helpless
When they learned what the General had
dore, they gave "thgee Ckeers for Grams

vaRnnh-FIve COlOred Men Killed
No Whites KIlied-ROw In Augusta
Sheriff KILLED Indications that the
state is Democratic.
SAVANNAH, November 3.-Negroes an.
pe4red IN large numbers when the polls
opened this morning, and took entire
possession. This continued until about
seven o'clock. Every white man who came
to vote was dubbed away from the polls.
Finally fight commenced, and tue negroes
were driven back, and the whites com
elced voting.
The negroes rallied and renewed the
fight. A negro drew his pistol aud shot a
policeman, mortaly wounding him. Firing
then became general in the crowd The
police came to preserve order. The ne
groes fought them desperately, until the
police began to use their pistols, when the
negroes dispersed. During the fight FIVE
negroes were killed and several wounded
Four policemen were wounded, one
mortally. A young man residing op-
posite the courthouse was hit by stray
ball, though not dangerously wounded.
AUGUSTA, November SIP to three
o'clock the election proceeded quietly,
when row commenced between white men
and negroes, which resulted in the killing
of Albert Ruffini, County Sheriff, and one
negro. The excitemont was intense, but
through the interference of leading citizens
and cooperation of the military both par
ties dispersed quietly and order was re-
stored. Each party accuse the other of
being responsible for the origin Of the diff
Guilty. The city at this hour is very quiet
nnd there is no apprehension OF further
Eouble.
No official returns have been received
from any counties in Georgia, but partial
returns show increased Democratic gains.
1t is believed that the State will 60 Demo
cratic by at least 10000 majority. Imper-
feet returns from seventeen counties on the
line of railroads give 1856 Democrat ma.
jority.
