RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION
Military Rule In GeOrgia-Suspen-
sion Of the Writ Of Habeas Cor

WASHINGTON, May 4-The fact that
General Terry, commanding in Georgia,
had virtually suspended the writ of ha-
beas corpus and instituted a military
commission TO try civil offenders while
the civil courts were in session, was not
generally known here till to-day Mr..
Beck, OF Kentucky, attempted to get a
resolution through the House calling
upon the President for all information
in the premises, and to know if this
extraordinary proceeding received his
official sanction, but a single objection
prevented its consideration The infOr-
nation at hand shows that a citizen OF
Warrenton, Georgia, was arrested al
midnight without knowledge of the
charge, and at once imprisoned.
Counsel sued out writ OF
habeas corpus before the civil court
having jurisdiction, but General Terry
gave orders that the writ should not be
Obeyed. 1t seems that the Senate even
did not intend to authorize such suspen,
sion under the Georgia bill, now pend,
ing in the House, and most of the Sen
at0rs thought that the writ could not
be suspended under present circum.
stances, but General Terry has not only
suspended the writ, but virtually declar.
ed martial law. Further information
saws that the pretext for this is an in,
tention TO develop the Ku-Klux. Fol-
four days the examination of this cit
izen has been going on under bsyonets
and the whole community thrown into
terror lest suborned testimony may touch
the unoffending. \ letter says that this
is a part Of Bullock's scheme to make i
appear that there's trouble in Georgia
and if the fear Of being involved

Fith the military did not deter, the
scheme would be exposed, and would
startle the country even in these times
The crime charged in this particular
case. is the murder of q citizen more
than a year ago. The friends Of the
murdered man are numerous, and de-
cline to prosecute the man under mill
tary arrest for the crime. It's believed
IN Georgia that other arrests are to
follow this. though there are no incul-
pating facts, andl the impression is Gre
ating general alarm. The following are
the official orders which show General
'Terry's virtual suspension Of the writ of
habeas corpus and the trial Of n citizen
by military order:

DEMOCR ATTIC.

The foregoing represents the vote of thirty
five States. The two remaining States not in
Guided are Mississippi. with seven electoral
votes-which, by reason OF the preponderapce
ofthe negroes. will probably be carried by the
radicals--and Texas, with six clectors! votes,
which will certainly be given to the democracy.
Thus, with the States that are now democratic,
and Texas added, the democrats have 100 cleo
toral votes, and the republicans, with Missis.
sippi added, have ]55, giving to the democrats
clear majority Of five throughout the country.
In the list of States in the democratic list
which the republicans are likely to carry in a
presidential election Connecticut is the only
one but the loss Of her six votes would be
more than counter-balanced By the loss to the
republicans of the seven votes OF New jersey,
which would certainly be cast for the demo-
cratic candidate.
The above We find in the New York Herald
We give it's predictions for what they are worth
leaving the reader to draw bis own conclusions.
