rHr xuKIux AID THE prnocRAcY.

The immense ground-swell of popular
indignation which has released the old
Empire State from democratic thraldom
is the commencement OF political reac-
ton, which must inevitably result in the
disintegration of the Democratic party
We also have the most fattering news
from the West. The "Sucker State" has
lected q Republican for Congress from
the State at large, by greatly increased
majority, which still leaves Illinois
among the undoubted Republican States.
Democracy, it seems, has gained but little
by having organized the Kuklux Khan in
the late rebellious States, who In their
mid night sallies have overawed and MUIR
dered the unoffending loyalists of the
South until the chief Magistrate of the
nation was compelled to extend to their
aid, and in suppression of the Khan the
strong arm of military law. This the De-
mocracy foresaw could be brought about
by means of the Khan, and they have la
bored assduously to accomplish their pur-
pose, and many have been the innocent
victims of this pet scheme of Democracy.
The dark and bloody record of this infa-
NOUS Khan is before the American people.
SO, also the action of President Grant in
his efforts to suppress them. The record
ofthe Khan, as well as the action of Grant,
has been passed upon by the people of sew
eral of the States, and the result is also be-
fore the country.
The Democracy having so signally fail
ed in their efforts to create q diversion in
their favor by means of the khan, although
they did succeed in bringing the military
into some sections of the South and by q
well drilled, unprincipled press, have sent
up a concerted howl all over the country
over the action of the President, brought
about by their own conduct, but they have
not succeeded rs they expected, and we
hope they will now abandon the khan and
that they will not again attempt to accom-
plish their purposes by means of crime
and bloodshed. The Democracy being
aware of the distaste of the people of this
country for military rule, expected large
results from this murderous organization ;
but as 1t has recoiled upon their own heads
we confidently expect to hear but little
hereafter of their operations and that the
necessity of keeping the military in these
kuklux strongholds will have soon been
passed. The object of the khan was two
fold, First, to inaugurate reign of terror
in the South, and COMPEL Southern 10y
alists, particularly the negro, to vote ac-
cording to their dictation, and secondly, to
force the government to send troops into
the South to protect her citizens, and thus
create diversion in their favor in theNorth
ern States. The first has been only par
TALLY successful. The second is an entire
failure hence we say the Democracy have
no further use for the khan.

Athens Items.

The first half of the first collegiate term of the
East Tennessee Wesleyan University closed
yesterday and the last half begins to-day. About
one hundred and twenty students have been in
attendance, and a considerable increase is now
hoped and expected. A course of lectures and
a concert is spoken of, to come off during the
coming winter, for the purpose of procuring a
better supply of apparatus.
At a recent meeting of the Athenian Literary
Society of the University, the following roll of
officers was elected
5 " Hunt, President; T G Carter Vice Pres
ident; l. + Smith, Recording Secretary; A NJ
Presnell, Corresponding Secretary; } NJ Car
ter Treasurer; ID A Bolton, Critic w IL jew
-el, Sergeant alarms NJ NJ Callen, Editor; j

The Philomathean Society have also elected
their officers as follows:

The unhappy controversy in regard to the
possession of the Methodist Church property al
this place has been settled by compromise. The
NJ. f. Church, South will hereafter occupy the
church, and the members of the NJ. Il. Church
worship in the chapel of the East Tennessee
Wesleyan University, which is very convenient
and well adapted for such purpose. 1t is to be
hoped that this compromise, satisfactory to al
concerned, will bring about better state o.
feeling between the two churches. c. nj. M.

AFRICAN GRAND TOILETTE.

A writer in the CornhiU Magazine
escribes a visit which he once made with
DR.. Livingstone to the harlem Of q prince
of one of the Comoro Islands. He
says:
"a curtain was Withdrawn, ard, stand
ing in a row or either side Of the pas
sage, we saw q number of little slave
girls, some of whom were very gaily
dressed. Then there came from a room
at the end of a passage q stout lady about
twenty five years of age, whose face was
only saved from being commonplace By
her large and really beautiful eyes. Her
appearance as she entered the room was
dazzling. The bodice of her dress was of
cloth of gold; the short skirt was of Indian
muslin deliberately worked with gold and
silver thread; her drawers were Of the
same material and similarly ornsmented.
Her naked feet were slipped into richly
adorned sandals, and on her hair she wore
purple velvet fez shaped cap that was
refulgent with gold lace and jewels.
Round her waist she had q jeweled zone,
and round her neck 'jewels Of silver and
Jewels of gold" were multiplied in bsr-
barous profusioG; she had rings on al
her fingers; she wore bracelets, srmlets
and anklets of gold; and her ears were
strangely decorated, for not only were
the lower lobes perforated, but the rim of
each ear was pierced in several places,
and instead of one jeweled drop, each
ear sustained four or five."
