opponents who haYe been desPoilcd Of

GEORGE G.. MEADE,


The riot at Augusta was rather Sc
rious affair, resulting in the death Of the
Sheriff and the dangerous wounding Of
several white men and negroes. 1t was,
however, brought on by negroes who be-
lOnged TO the Radical party. The riot at
Savannah, which Gen. Meade terms
simply rencountre, was very bloody
affair, resulting in the death of three or
four negroes and the wounding of several
whites and blacks, including a white
lady. This riot grew out Of an armed
band Of negroes marching to the polls and
taking forcible possession Of the ballot
box. But for the prompt and energetic
action Of the police, aided by number OF
citizens, this riot would have proved ter
rible affair. Asst is, several negroes were
killed, and one of the wounded police
men has since died and another was not
expected to recover. Now see how Gen.
Meade CLOSES over these disturbances
which were clearly brought on by Radi.
Gals. Irwhite men had been the aggros,
sors, he would have heralied it as ar
evidence Of the rebellious spirit Of the
people, and the Northern Radical press
would have taken up the refrain and
raised a terrible howl over the outrage:
Of tho Ku-Klux. Hero were two case;
of riOting, the only ones that occurred il
Gen. Meade's department on the day o
the election, in which the negroes. were
clearly the aggressOrs, and he not only
has not the candor to say so, but seeks
to convey the impression that they were
but trifing disturbances. This conduct
of Gen Meade furnishes fair illustration
OF the manner in which the Southern
people have been misrcpresented by
these military SatrapS

A special Washington dispatch to the
Cincinnati Enquirer is as follows:
WASHINGTON, Nov. s, 1868.
A singular movement has been orig
mated 10y certain politicians, having in
view The casting Of the Democratic electO-
raj votes for Grant. 1t is urged It would
influence Grant to a conservative course,
to which he is undoubtedly inclined. a
circular letter on this subject has been
addressed to Mr.. Pendleton, Governor
Stevenson and General Preston, Of Ken
tseIsy,-A. II. Stsphans, and prominent
Democrats of the North. The following
is the text Of the letter:
WAsHINGToY, D. c., November s,
lSGS.-General In my judgment the
wisest thing the Democracy could now do
would be to throw their entire electoral
vote for General Grant, as an indication
Of the fact that, should he pursue libe-
raj, generous and magnanimous course,
| they will sustain him. 1t would also have
| the effect Of not leaving him altogether in
| the hands Of the adverse faction, and
would doubtless strengthen any purpose
he may entertain toward the conserva-
tive sentiment Of the country. This vote
cannot possibly 10 Seymour any good,
and thrown in the manner suggested
would, at least, produce a conciliatory
impression. .
Very truly, yours, &c.
If it were possible at this juncLurc, to
subdue the spirit of partnership, and III
augurate an era Of good feeling, like that
Of the Monroe administration commenced
in 1917, it would be well. For lis sake,
lift could be assured, the whole people
might agree to accept as President man
whom, perhaps, no one competent TO
Judge, thinks qualified for the position
one who has no political antecedents, and
has disclaimed having any political prin-
ciples, but who has been elected after the
fashion that elections arc held at this
| time.
1t is not possible, or probable at least,
that this can occur, and therefore the
above is nothing more than Washing
! ton city crochet.
