THE FALL ELECTIONS. The fall cleo
tions this year are to decide not only the
character of the next House of Repre-
scntativcs, but also, to certain extent
that of the Senate. Twenty Senators
will be elected by the next State Legis-
lures. The Senators whose terms ex-
pire on the 4th of March next are Nor
riIl, of Maine; Cragin, of New Hamp-
shire; Wilson, of Massachusetts; An
thony, of Rhode Island; Cattcll, of New
Jersey Wiley, of West Virginia /;
johnson, of Vnginia; Abbott, of N. G.;
Robertson, of S. c.; Fowler of Tenn;
Grimes, of Ia; Howard of Michigan !;
Thaycr Of Ma; Ross, of Kansas Yates
of Illinois; Mcdonald of Arkansas !;
Rcvcls of Mississippi Williams of Ore
gon; Harris of Louisiana; Warner of
Alabama; Salisbury Of Delaware !;
McCrccry of Kentucky, and Norton of
Minnesota. The outgoing senators are
all Republicans, except Salisbury, Nc
Grocery and Norton. The scat Of Mr..
Fowler has already been filled by a
Democrat, and that of Mr.. Grimes by a
Republican. The Democrats will prob
ably lose one senator in Minnesota, and
gain New Jersey, Oregon, and perhaps
one or two Southern States. In many
of the States the contest will be spirited,
for political casons.-Charlest0n Ne'cS.

DARK Days.

''Horacc Greeley says that the dark
est day in any mans career is that
wherein he fancics there is some easier
way of gaining dollar than by square,
ly earning it."
Greeley ought to know as he has seen
many of these dark days. But, per-
haps, he meant to put the emphasis on
"fancics," and that, actually getting the
dollar, 'in some other way" is a very
different thing. BY hook and by crook ;
by newspaper tattlo and pandering to
vitiatcd sentiment, Greeley has accumu-
lated large fortune. Did he squarcly
earn each dollarf Is he "squarely" en-
titled to any moro than the farm boy,
who started life with him in Connect
cut and following the pillow has CLEANED
from life Of honest and persistent Ia
Dor little more than the means of sub
sistencc When he comes to count his
dollars" squarcly carncd," Greeley will
find the sum small indeed.

sHARP-w1IL RUFUS SUE ?

The Herald, of Thursday, has the fol-
lowing. We trcmble for old man Ben
nett. Rufus will certainly so at him for

The Georgia investigating committee
have made report which discloscs most
Infamous attempts on the part of Cover
nor Bullock and others interested in the
passage of the stringent Georgia bill to
influence legislation. The intention to
bride Senators Carpenter and Upton
was fairly developed, but the parties
called upon by Bullock's adhcrents to do
the dirty work refused to approach those
Senators for any such purpose. The re-
suit of the investigation puts the Senate
in high position as contrastcd with the
result Of the cadetship selling investiga-
ton in the House, and it remains to be
seen if Gen. Butler, whose committee is
trying to tack the Bullock clause to the
bill, will proceed further in that business.

A MODEL GovERNoR.-The Atlanta
Constitution publishes three columns of
charges and specification against Gov.
Bullock, emanating from Treasurer An
gier. A considerable portion of this
Indictment has already been made pub
lie. We give the concluding passages
as a specimen:
"Whilc the Governor neither gives in
nor pays any State, county, city, or rev.
enuc (income) tax, there was collected
through one house in the city in the
space of a few weeks, nearly 10000 on
the Governors drafts or "checkS" drawn
while he was in Washington in favor OF
parties there, on the bank here, where
the State railroad deposits arc kept I'M
der circumstances that indicated to those
who presented the draft, or "checks,"
that the Governors personal account
was exhausted or greatly ovcrdrawn, or
that the State railroad funds were suf-
fering. One thing is certain, if he has
these tens Of thousands to his personal
credit, he is defrauding not only the
General and State governments, but
county and city.
This is the modification the great
Empire State of the South is reduced
to, of having a Governor who pirates
loudly of elective franchise, while he
has failed to place himself in condition
to be entitled to the common privilege
of the ballot box by reason of not hav-
ing paid oven poll tax, except one or
two dollars last year, under city exccu-
ton for double poll, for failing to give in.
Whore do his tens of thousands spent in
Washington como from The tax pay
ers would like for the committee to in
vestigate this point"

Brf1OCK is out IN ten page pampH-
let against Senator Ferry and the Ju-
dietary Committee. Questions of State
and maI-administration is now transfer
red to Washington and are fought before
the Supreme government. This was
the practice of Imperial Rome in re-
spect to the pro- consulships many years
ago. The pro. consuls and farmers of
the revenue had fight before the Sen
ate every year, on the question of steal
ing and dividing, and were either con-
dCmncd and thrown to the beasts, or re-
turned to their Jurisdiction, to wiring
now plumber from the outside barbarians.
Behold, there is nothing new under the
sun.-Macon Telegraph.
Have VIC not made as much progress
to an Empire as Rome had under Au-
gustus Caesar? Our Congress is the
Roman Senate of that period; our Pres
ident the Consul, controlling the nation
al guard and laughing at and profiting
by tho debauchery of the Senate, the
dccadcncc of popular virtue and the de-
struction of old Republican landmarks'

PRESIDENTIAL INTRIGUES AND
SPECULATIONa.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Baltimore Gazette says.
A movement is on foot for reorganiz-
ing the National Republican Executive
Committee and the Congressional Cam
paign Committee for the Fall elections
and the Presidential campaign Of 1872.
This will result in serious contention be-
tween the friends of the Administration
and othor Republicans. Many Republi-
cans dcnounce the Administration as a
nullity, complete failure, and declare
that with the exception of Boutwell,,
there is not man in the Cabinet who
represents anything or anybody. And
Boutwell,, it is said, is working for the
nomination and will endeavor to flank
Grant. Sherman has no chance what
ever, and has never had. If it had been
decided to nominate q military candi-
date, Gen. Thomas, had he lived, would
havea been the man. The friends of
ChicGI Justice Chase are moving, and
look to the South in particular for sup
port. Grant, of course, expects re-
nomination. Indeed, he believes, and
has SO expressed himself, that the Re-
publican party cannot hope to succeed
without him. The probabilities are that
he will be renominatcd, although this
may cause split in the Republican
party.

EVERYBODY TIRED OF BULLOCK
His Extinction Demanded.-The New
York Commercial Advertiser, Radical
journal, thus notices our troublesome
Governor
The people of the United States are
Just about sick of the name of Bullock.
One can't read anything from Georgia
which is not coupled with Bullock
washington has had such dose of Bull
lock that if somebody would only ex-
tinguish Bullock, we dare say the capi-
tai would cheerfuIIy take up a subscrip-
ton for that Somebody" as a national
benefactor. A Senator remarked last
week that Congress had Bullock on the
brain, and that Bullock had Congress
in his brccches' pockets" The idea is
little mixed, but twill do to express
the general feeling upon the subject of
Bullock. 1t is said that Bullock has
gone to Georgia and will break out
afrcsh in that State. This makes us
wish that there were no such things as
newspapers, post offices, or telegraph
stations in Georgia. What candidate
for a glorious Immortality will take this
Bullock by the horns and give him his
quictus? The people are ycarni1g to
erect national monument 10 somebody,
and the man who will expunge Bullock
is the man they want.

THAT Is JUST RIGHT.

The Savannah Republican comment
ing on the heated discussions in Ala
bama arising from the Congressional
overthrow of Constitutional government
very wisely says-"In our judgment,
the true wisdom of the case is for us
Of the South to be quiet for the present,
giving all due attention to our local af-
fairs, build up, las best VIC can) honest
governments at home, in which white
and black are alike interested, and leave
it to the North to fight out the battles Of
the Constitution with Congress-" OF

dispatch to General w. T. Sherman,

If my rank will not cntitle mo to a

bic, l would prefer this (St. LOUISE sta

The next day tho following telegram
was sent in reply:
Your dispatch from St. Louis has been
received and | will answer you by mail.
In the contemplated change your post
will not be altered.
(Signcd) w. 7. SHERMAN, Gen.
The same day (April ~ Gen. Sher-
man addressed the following letter to
General Hancock:
General: l have laid your dispatch
of the 18th, from St. Louis, before the
President, who authorized me to say
that your wishes and claims for the sue
cession to tho command of the Military
Division of the Pacific, made vacant by
General Thomas death, were fairly con-
and also your preference for
the Department of the Mississippi, in
case of change in its commander, was
made known to him, but he has ordered
otherwise.
The President authorizes me to say
to you that it belongs TO his Office to
select the commanding generals of
divisions and departments, and, that
the relations you choose to assume to-
wards him officially and privately, alb
solve him from regarding personal pref
erenccs.
The order announcing these charges
will be made public in a very few
days, and they will not touch the De-
partmont of Dakota or Military Diyis-
ion of the Missouri.

W. I. SAERMAN, General.
To this General Hancock replied, I'M

General: Your letter has been re-
ccved, detailing tho reasons the Presi-
dent gives why my claims to more i'm
portant command should not be regard
ed. intended by my dispatch, to ask
for division, if the existing divisions
were all continued; otherwise, if changes
made it practicable, not as a favor, but
as claim, to command to which l
thought my rank entitled me.
AS the President leads me. to believe
that, because / have not his personal
sympathy, my preference for command
will not be regarded, Notwithstanding
my rank, l shall not again open the sub
ject, but will add, in conclusion, that l
think it is an unfortunate precedent to
establish that military rank in time OF
peace, especially in the assignment Of
general officers to commands of divisions
and departments, shall not have the con-
siderntion hitherto conceded to it. ]

CHEROKEE INDIAN RITrERS
THE GREAT VEGETABLE BLOOD
MEDICINE.

MEDICINE.
Cherokee Indian Bitters possess an
energy which seems to communicate
new life to the system, and renovate
the feeble, fainting powers OF nature
Its operation upon the tissues of the
body, does not consist in affecting the
irritability of the living fiber, but in i'm
parting a sound and healthy stimulus to
the vital organs. 1t strengthens sub
stantially and durably, the living power
of the animal machine; is entirely in
nocent and harmless; may be admins
tered with impunity to both sexes, and
all ages and conditions of life. There
is no disease of any name or nature,
whether of young or old, male or female,
but that it is proper to administer it,
and if it be done seasonably and perse-
veringly, it will have good effect. 1t
is perfectly incredible to those unac-
quainted with the Cherokee Indian Bit
lers, the facility with which a healthy
action is often in the worst cases restor-
ed to the exhausted organs of the sys-
tenn with degree of animation and
desire for food, which is perfectly as
tonishing to all who perceive it. This
medicine purities the Blood restores the
tonic powers of the fbers, and of the
stomach and digestive organs rouses
the animal spirits, and substantially for
tifes and terminates the broken down
constitutions of mankind.
