The storm in Brooklyn.

The first snowy covering OF the season was spread
over the City OF Churches and its suburbs Friday
night, when the tiny flakes began to descend about
eleven O'Clock, and by midnight were coming down
with such rapdity that those who were out at that
time gave frequent expression TO the BELIEF "tha we
would have seighing in the morning." Snow
changed to sleet, which beat against the window
panes with considerable force as the night advanced
and again changed to snow before daybreak.
so the parachuteike little fakes accumu-
lated on the streets, housetops and door
steps to the depth OF about four inches,
and gave work to the careful h0usekeepers
In removing the accumulation from In front OF their
doors. The snow shovelers, men and boys. were
about early and late yesterday, making the best OF
their time In the pursuance OF their precariouS
patton. 'Tne fall' was not OF the durable nature
suitable for sleghing purposes, and indeed, IL might
be said that 1t thawed almost as fast as II fell. This
was source or disappointment TO many who are
impatient for the enjoyment OF the pleasures OF a
sleighride The largest share OF sympathy is
due, however, to the poor car horses, the
tracks being In q shocking condition and
the travel on the city cars throughout the day very
great. Ii was found necessary on most OF the rail
lines to attach horses the I'm order
to keep them going. The streets are In shock
ing condition. and 1t Is most probable that from this
date until next spring we may expect nothing but
sloppy dirty locomotion. The streets OF Brooklyn
are in very bad condition, generally speaking the
position OF the street cleaning contractors being little
more than nominal; for though they are prompt with
their bills the LIST OF each month they are very
sparng with the shovel and broom.

The Storm I'm New Jersey.

Considering the violence OF the snow storm which
prevailed ON Friday night there was very little
damage to property in Hudson county. Those who
reside in the swampy districts will sufrer much In
convenience In getting to from their residences.
The horse car lines were kept open IN every direc-
ton yesterday but just ut twilight the snow began
to fail heavily and continued thus for hours, so that
travel will be seriously impeded for q few days at
least. The trains on the New Jersey Railroad ran
with the usual regularity, except in few
cases. The washington train was only half
an hour behind time In the afternoon. The Cincin-
natl express train, running TO the Central Railroad
depot, was detained west OF Harrisburg and arrived
three hours late Several other trains on this rail-
road fell behind time In consequences OF the snow
drifts on portions OF the line, but all came In safely.
There were but few delays on the Erie Railroad. IL
Is feared that the drifts in the Bergen cut viii
block up trains on the New jersey Railroad today,
SO that snow ploughs are In readiness
The plank road between Hoboken and Hudson
City was entirely covered. and those who usually
travel thereon were obliged to resort to the horse
cars.

GEORGIA..
The Reign Of violence Not Ended

A Georgia correspondent says that the reign
OF violence continues in many portions of the
State. The expelled members of the Legisa-
ture (many of them) are afraid to go home,
and one of them, the Representative from JEFF
feIson county, who ventured home. was visited
by Ku-KluX gang who searched his house for
him and failed to 6nd HIM, as he was hidden
between two beds. The Republican candidates
for elector and member of Congress in the
Second district were turned out of the tavern
at Americus, whittier they had gone in the
course of their canvass, and were obliged to
leave the town at night and on foot, TO escape a
mob. A few days after, at Camilla, in the same
district, Republican meeting, peaceably sssem.

were killed and many wounded, but if I should
attempt to enumerste all the outrages which are
continually being made public, should occupy
too much of your space. Those which are only
known in this immediate neighborh hood far sur
pass in number those which become public. In
the meantime Governor Bullock can only Gre
procamati at the wrong-doers, which neither
the KuKlux nor the civil officers, to whom they
are addressed, regard any more than the comet
did the Pope's bull. Nothing will put stop TO
this bloody lawlessness but show of force. The
patience with which the colored people submit
to these wrongs ia wonderful. 1 heard of but

The soldiers for Seymour, absurd as 1t may
show how false and slanderous is the charge
that the men who fought for the Union have

REBEL PRISONS.
Andersonville and Libby Remembere


A private letter from lady in Utica contains
the following otf-hand account of a recent con.
veTsation In railroad car, in the course of
which some good reasons we're given to show
why votes should not be cast for Heratlo
Seymour
"a gentleman, formerly Democrat, with a
cleaI smooth, telling voice, gAXe his views to
some gentle men with him, nSch a way as to
interest all the passengers in the crowded car.
The first part that attracted me was the follow
ing:-'My county, which is Erie county. gave In
the first Lincoln election something over 900
majority for the Republican candidate; In the
second 100, and now am prepared to say that
she will give at least 5000 for Graut.' There
was a sensation. Some one said he had no
grounds to go upon, and asked him how he
counted? Thus wise,' he replied; mot one
blood. or his cRildren's, in the
late war on the Northern side would vote for
Seymour. Not one man who rejoiced when our
army gained victory would vote for Seymour.
Not one man who had sons or relatives who died
from starvation in the Andersonvlle and Libby
prisons will vote for Seymour. They will vote
for Grant, At this moment the lady next to me
said:-'You may be sure of that. Ny brother
died from starvation at Andersonville; no
Democratic friend of his would vote for Sey-
mour. My brother.in-law likewise died IN the
service; and no friend of his would vote for
Seymour. They were laid in their graves
skeletons. They had no flesh to decay; they
were staryed.'n

The IrrepressibIe George Francis Noui-
mated for Congress.

Last evening the Irishmen of the Fifth district
OF New Y ork met TO nominate George Francis
Train for Congress. Although the "unterr1ded"
OF the CITY were supposed TO be assembled at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, 10 do reverence to
General Mcclellan, still the hall was Gro gded
Senator Brad ey, with crowd OF Trains oppo-
nente, was early on the ground, led by the
martial notes of o epare-drum. The meeting
was called 10 order at o'clock and Pa,ricf
Grove was elected chairman. He said It was
''auspicious for the country to put forward such
a man as TraiD.r (Cheers.) Under such a
leader the Irish will soon throw off the hated
English rule. Three cheers were then
given for General Nagle, whose presence was
announced. General Nagle was then introduced
and said he would have been ungrateful If he
bad not come forth to support his old friend
Train. He gave description of his imprson.
ment In Ireland, and of his acquittal through
Trains influence. He addressed them not as
Democrats, not as partisans, but as citizens in
want OF man representing the whole people;
not such stick, stone, or dummy as would be
q dead weight. (Great cheers.) Train Is a man
ahead OF the times (cheers) s)-ahead Of all
politicians. (''Hear. hear.r) Train first con-
celyed the idea of Pacific Railroad. Here he
grew very eloquent, picturlng Venice and India
in vain grasping alter the world's trade, "but
getting none of it at all, while we are ready to
have 1t poured upon our Shores"
Train was the ssiety-valve adjusted to the
great boiler OF Irish patriotism. He wanted a
new political party which would advocate green
backs for money; open doors to workmen; Wall

The resolutions were then read and adopted.

McCLELLAN.
A Formal ReceptIOn-rhe Views OF the
General on the Campaign.


General on the Campaign.
The admirers of General George B. Mcclellan,
says the New York Tribune OF this morning,
assembled last evening In the nelghborhood OF
Masonic Hall, In Thirteenth street, where they
formed procession, and marched to the Filth
Avenue Hotel, The various Mcclellan Legion
organizations were early on the ground, few
of which we're supplied with muslin banners
and torches. section of police headed the
procession, followed by solitary horseman,
whose name could not be ascertained. Several
officers of the Mcclellan Legion were in
baroucbes, and in their rear followed eight or
nine Zouaves, who were repeatedly told by one
of the officers to spread themselves out so as to
take up the entire width of the street. The
gentleman on horseback frequently halted the
procession, for some reason only known to
himself.
Arriving at the hotel, the procession halted
to await the appearance of the General. At this
time there were probably $1,000 persons in front
of the Hotel, wild with enthusiasm. Calcium
lights were located on the various corners, which
illuminated the entire square. The Com nittee,
consisting of General j. Hobart Ward, Colonel
Charles PiersoD, Major Donaldson, Captain
George III. Curtis, and Lieutenants McClenacsn,
Jones, and Israels, waited on the General and
escorted him TO the balcony. His appearance
was greeted with deafening cheers, and it was
seyeral moments before tne crowd could be
ouieted, at which time General J. Hobart
Ward, in introducing General Mcclellan, said:--
Soldiers and ellow-citizeus:-Permt me 10
introduce to you General George B. Mcclellan,
the great commander of the Army of the Poto-
mac. (Cheers.)
General Mcclellan responded as follows:-
know, my friends, you will not expect a
speech from me. am sure you will be content
with the expression of my most sincere aud
heartfelt thanks for this kind and cordial well
come on my return home-more. a thousand
times, than had any right to expect. You will,
know, excuse me from making any speech.
(Cheers.)
II was some time before the crowd would
make way tor the procession, and even then it
made very slow progress. While passing they
gave three cheers for the hero of the Antietam
and three cheers for Seymour. Seymour's name
was received with many hlsses which occasoned
considerable merriment. Alter the procession
had about half passed, they commenced to
hotel the head of the lire tried to perform a
flank movement by crossing their own column,
which occasloned considerable confusion.

"The Unkindest Cut"
AN Ex-CoSFEDEhATE DENoUNCEs THE DEMooR ATTIC
PROGRAMME.

PROGRAMME.
The Raleigh IN. c. Standard publishes long
letter from General Rufus Darrlnger, formerly
au officer of the Confederate army, accepting
the nomination of Republican Elector of North
Carolina. He says:-
Il can. under no circumstances, vote the
present Democratic programme. l have no
special fondness for Republicans; but they never
deceived us, and can at least respect and trust
them. This / cannot do with the Northern
Democracy. They encouraged our secession
leaders into war and then deserted us-many
of them leading the Union armies against us.
The Republicans warned us against secession,
and did only what they said they would. On
some accounts prefer q military man. As a
class they have few prejudices. The soldiers of
the two armies will be the first to forget the un.
happy past. and rejoice together in the hopes
OF The future. General Grant was masnanimous
TO us in the surrender. He has uttered no
unkind words 10 US. He has commended the
noble qualities of the Southern army. de Is
neither a negro hater or q negro worshipper.
II can now only be his ambition to restore the
Union he mas saved Ito restore 1t in all its parts,
it's interests, it's sympathes, and its spiratlons
He will not only give us peace and prosperity,
but Union we can love and government we
can hOnor.n
