Real estate in Montgomery Is rap
idly increasing in value.
The Monroe Eagle says that the
prospect for both corn and cotton in
that section is promising.
The Advertiser thinks that the cen.
sus now being taken will show a
population Of 1900 for Montgomery.
Governor Smith is credited with
vetoing a bill passed by the Legisla-
'ture "fOr bad spelling and Id

The down passenger train on the
Selma and Rome railroad ran on the

The Gadsden Times says Mr.. Wat

fall, twenty-four and a half bushels OF
wheat on twenty acres of land, from

five hundred bushels, weighing sixty
two pounds to tho bushel.
The Chattanooga Times publishes
the following as a current rumor;
"That ON Saturday night a band o.

SOUTH OF US.
Summary Of News from the West Indies,
Central America, Etc.

In San Domingo the people are
greatly disappointed at the rejection
by the United States Senate of the
treaty of annexation. President Baez,
inahis message to the Dominican Con-
gress on the subject, says that /" the
measure will, nevertheless, succeed in
the end, for it is a necessity in the pro-
gress of humanity whose Unseen agent
is Providence itself.' The Domini-
cans coincide in this view, and the
hope of annexation is by no means
abandoned. From Havana we learn
that the insurgent General FREDERICK
CastellanOs has voluntarily surren-
dered at Puerto Principe. The latest
news from Laguayra brings the in
teIligence that Guzman Blaneo has
been elected President of Venezuela
by the Congress at Valencia. The
Moaagas party, however, are in
possession of all the seapOrts, and have
closed Laguayra by a strict blockade.
From the City of Mexico we learn
that General Negrete was arrested by
the Chief of Police on July 12th.I
Negrete asked if the object of the
arrest was to assassinate him, in
which case he would defend himself.
On receiving a negative answer he
welded and was taken first to the jail
and was shortly aiterward removed
.t0&he st. Teresa prison and turned
over to the military authorities, A.
public meeting Of Negrete's friends
was held the day after the arrest and
speeches asking for ciemency were
delivered. Attire same time an I'M
successful attempt at o. rescue of the
prisoner was made, and q committee
of citizens waited on President Juarez
to solicit the pardon Of Negrete.
The2 prisoner stiH remains In the
hands Of the military authorities, but
strong efforts are being made TO effect
his transfer 10 the civil courts, !

BEFORE the New York National
Democratic Convention, the Nash
vile Bdalner, like our Jefferson street
neighbor, used to be a robust and out
right Democrat. They went by the
name, and talked about the Demo-
cratic party by that name, out and
out, fiat. But, for some peculiar rea-
sons they have grown fastidious Of
late, their stOmachs have grown
squeamish, and they want some sort
Of handle to the name, as third party,
Wing, Independent or Conservative
Democrat. One was an old lire
Democrat, the other an old line Wing,
and thus extremes have met. The
great body Of old Wings always used
10 be Tor reform and good govern
ment; and the natural place, there-
fore, for a Wing to fall now,
is with the party which
advocates reform and good govern
ment. So the body OF Wings go with
the Democratic party, which Is now
the great and sole advocate Of good
government. And will an oid7line
Democrat, who is also for good gov
eminent, when the Wings are willing
TO take the name for q great union of
patriots, if0W refuse, under his owns
to fight for tine same good cause?
These two journals will have some
difficulty in giving am intelligent eX-
planation TO the public as to I0ldt IS
he Dlatter. Do they want 10 rule or
ruin? DO they desire 70 rank as Dem-
ocrats, and at the same time play into
the hands of the independents or the
Radicals? If 50, caf 6onoS

THE Nashville Banner is out for the
Democratic Convention for Governor
and other State offices. 1t was rather
hard to swallow, and done with many
grimaces. But /" after much delibera-
ton upon the subject, and consultation
with many of the most influential
citizens from all parts Of the State" it
has finally caved, and says ga State
Convention is not to be avoided in the
pending canvass with safety" The
Union and american receives the Ban
ner back very kindly; only saying,
{" we told you So" and "while the
lamp holds out to burn, etc." We
trust the new convert, "plucked as a
brand from the burnings," will now
hold out faithful to the end, and never
more be caught with Third party and
Independent husks and ~fooleries.

evidently did not consult his grammar

the fact OF straitened circumstances

There are none who seek to organize

they are already arrayed to all intents

population is on the Radical side.

organized in the shape of Loyal

To assume the name of Conserva-
tive in opposition to Democrat is non
ense. The names, as understood now,
are synonyms. You might as well
assume the pretentious name patriot,
as that Of Conservative, when all
pretend 10 be both patriots
and Conservatives, the Radicals
not excepted. To be a Democrat is
well understood by the whole country
to mean to be opposed to Radicalism
and all other deviItries, and'to be a
friend to the Constitution as it was.
We prefer the name Democrat to any
other. We have it, and intend to
keep it with all its past glories and
present virtues. Those who swallow
Independency will be cyphers, in the
approaching contest, or take Radical
ism, whole hog, horns, hoofs and all.

Submission to wrong is the cOWdruf
plea tits an . accomplished FACT
that under Radical rule, religion is a
mOckery, Christianity is scoffed, muir
der, rapine and villainy is triumph
ant, and that the devil Is as irresisti-
BILE as the legions Of Federal soldiers
whostrampled the few but brave Con-
federates down; ergo according TO the
policy Of the Apdiasche, the preactier
should vacate the pulpit, throw his
bible TO the dogs, and accept the sit
uation.S There is no compromise
between truth and error; between
tyranny and liberty. II wrong Is ever
to be righted, some n must lead In
the van of the battle against it, III
these views be extreme, we are con
soled by the reflection that they are
the principles which carried our faith
lers through the war of l776; which
animated thousands in France who
refused to e acceptthe situation" I'M
der Robespeirre; which instigated
generations of Irishmen to resistance
10 English oppression; nay, principles
which upheld John Huss, In his
fiery trial and which sustained LeOni-
das and his little band when they fell
almost TO a man, in front of the Per
sian hosts. The AuG6Glehe may crawl
on IFS belly, eat dirt, and lick the feet
Of the tyrants; but as to the APPEAL,
it will give no assent TO usurpaton,
make no compromise with fraud, and
refuse to join in the work of humili-
ating the Southern people; believing
As it does, that the Radical despots
have committed a stupendous crime
against God and nature, and that their
villainy ought no more TO be submit
ted to than the acts of the midnight
rObber and assassin. The whole sys-
TEN OF Congressional legislation, for
the last nine years, has been illegal,
unconstitutional and revolutionary,
aud the adoption of the sew
eral constitutional amendments ac-
compIished by force, fraud, perjury
and wrong, and they should not be
binding on the people any longer
than they have the power to repeal
the infamous usurpations. Shame on
those who are advising the people TO
accept the situation"-a Situation
forced by unconstitutional exercise of
power. Nearly every paper in the
South, ..and the AUGldnche among the
number, have denounced the adop-
ton of the Fifteenth Amendment IS a
horrible outrage, perpetrated by fraud
and Usurpation, and now some of
them are crying out it is an ''accom-
plished fact" "accept the situa-
ton" No work, no wrong
and outrage, and no despotism
has ever yet been so firmly fixed that
time, pluck and endurance could not
undo it, and we shall ever war upon a
situation" fastened upon the people
by trampling upon the Constitution
and forcing the people and the re-
spective States to do what they would
scorn to do if lett free to exercise the
rights purchased by the blood Of our
fathers, and ~bequeathed TO us as the
richest inheritance which a noble an
cestry could possibly transmit to the
cowardly and degenerate posterity
which the AUatonche would make US.

In last Sundays issues of the
Nashville Bonner and of the Union
and american a call for a State Con
vention appeared purporting to come
from the same hand, yet differing
materially in phraseolOgy. Is this
accidental, or has it a meaning, a de
sign? The UJli0n and american de-
clares that its copy is verbatim from
fhe manuscript furnished by the
Chairman of the Committee, and that
it was addressed "TO the Democratic
and Conservative voters of the State
Of Tennessee" which caption was
omitted 10y the BdHAer. The follow
ing are the copies in parallel lines as
we find them in the Union and amer
lean, with words italicised to which
it invites attention:
From the Union and From the Banner.

CoUNTERFEITING AS POLITICAL MACHINE
A gentleman named Houston King an ex-rebel
colonel, who, 1t seems, has been trying for the
last six months to obtain the ear of the gov
ernment, found his chance yesterday and made
affidavit before Commissioner Shields Of the
following apparently Munchausenish facts:--
There has long been huge conspiracy on
hand to bring the country to repudiation and
Insolvency by flooding il with counterfeit
money, and the principal leaders Of the con-
spiracy are Frank Blair, Governor Hoffman,
Ex-Governor Morgan and ex-President john
son. The principal meeting Of the conspra-
tors was held in the Tammany wiGwam. Com
missioner Shields patiently heard Kings state-
ment, and at his own request sent him to
Ludlow Street Jail, privately directing the sur
geon Of that institution to examine carefully
ilto bis mental condition.

A PoNTIFIcAL SHOT AT RUssIA.-The
Papal power, the Jesuit wing Of it at least, has
delivered a red hot shot against the Czar OF Rus
sia. The Jesuit newspaper organ In Rome COM
pliments the great Powers Of Europe on their
attitude towards the Council, excepting, how
ever, ''the Russia schismatic, which prevented
the only bishop Of Poland not killed or exiled
to Siberia from being present to relate the
misfortunes Of that martyred country" This
is pretty severe, coming as it does from the
fountain source of charity, but what follows is,
if possible, still more so, thus :-''Only one
nation, France, has given proof of her solicit
tude in keeping garrison" in the Holy City.
Napoleon is evidently being gradually reac-
cepted to the fold, as this endorsement is
almost equal to the USvas which saluted the
tri-color on the Malakof.
