-s8s1 Troops fer Georgia.
The 6th regiment of infantry has been
ordered 70 return South, and viii be dis
tributed among its former rendezvous,
with view to enforcing the election laws
of Congress. A large proportion of the
men viii be sent 10 Atlanta and other
points In Georgia.
The adyices to the Republicans from
Georgia are very confident in their tone,
and claim the Legislature and all but one
Congressman in the delegations of the
, Forty first and Forty second Congress.
AS the voting precincts are few and far
between, and the election Is to be held
for three days, and the ballot boxes are
TO be carried away from the polls for
three nights, TO remain in the custody OF
Gov. Bullock's Commissioners, this conf
dence appears 10 be well founded. The
registration in 1869 was 102, All whites
and SO, 307 colored. The election COM
mences on the 21stof December and lasts
till the close of the Esd day. 1t may be
added here that the President, in his an

is good time to grant general amnesty.
LATRF-Gen. Halleck has been ordered
to make such disposition of the troops In
Georgia as NAV be necessary for the pre-
servation of peace at the approaching
election. The Governor of Georgia, now
here, has no knowledge of any additional
troops having been ordered to Georgia,
and is of the opinion that the State au
thorities will not need them.
The English Mission.
A statement all the way from st. Louis,
but which has not been authenticated here,
saws that Hon. II. T. Blow, of that city,
now Minister to Brazil, has been rendered
the mission 10 England, and is now on his
way from Rio de Janeiro TO this country
to accept it. From the outgiving of po-
Iitical circles, il is more probable that the
rumor is true that Gen. Sickles is TO be
transferred from Madrid to London.
q South Carolina,
A letter received from South Carolina
says the people there are well nigh on the
verge of another civil war. 1t states that
the white people of that section are be-
ginning seriously to think of organizing
themselves into solid body of military to

Every night band of them are to be
seen proving about the suburbs of our
town, along the fences and in the woods,
with loaded guns given to them by the
State authorities, and from dark until day
light in the morning the quiet of our citi-
zens is disturbed, and the women and
children kept under excitement, by the
sounds of firing from these guns. Scarcely
an hour in the night passes that we do not

by the fact that the white people quietly
submit to this, they have commenced
overt acts of violence, disregarding age,

Senator Sawyer, of South Carolina,

thanksgiving. He says that Bowen,
counted out IN the second congressional
district of that State, has collected mass
of evidence TO prove corruption on the
part of the friends of DeLsrge, and that
the contest cannot fail TO be successful.
Senator Sawyer estimates Bowen's ma
