ATLANTA, Aug. 3.-Last Friday an
affray took place between some whites
and negroes at Galra School House,
Gwinett county, which was caused by
some negroes selling whisky at the
school exhibition. The students were
indignant at the sale. In the melee
four negroes were seriously and one
mortally wounded.
wAsHINGroN, Aug. 3.-Geu. Meade
has issued a general order dated At
lanta, July 30th, announcing that as
civil governments have been inaugura-
ted in the States of Georgia and Flori-
da, in conformity with the acts of Con
gress, the military power vested in this
district commander ceases to exist, and
orders issuing from his headquarters
bearing upon the rights of persons and
property, will have only such force as
may be given to them by the Courts
and Legislatures of those States to con-
firm the changed condition of affairs.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2.-Accounts by eye
witnesses belonging to both parties,
contradict the statements as telegraph

TIE last falsehood invented by the
Copperhead organs Is that Mr.. orville
L. Grant, of Chicago. brother OF Gen
eral Grant, refuses to support the Gem
eral for the Presidency because he
"don't consider him fit for of11ce," and
that he has contributed 81, 200 to a Dem
ocratic club for the purpose OF helping
to defeat his election. That gentleman
prououLces the statement an unfound-
ed lie; asserts that he has always been
a Republican; believes in the princi-
pies and policy of that party, and is not
going to desert it now, because his
brother; in whose capacity he has the
most implicit confidence, is the party's
standard bearer.
