THE KU-KLUG--EHLDENcE OF GENE
RAJ GORDON.
WASHINGTON, July 81.

NASHlNGTON, 6ulE u.
General Gordon was examined, and his tes-
timony was generally corroborative of that of
other Conservative witnesses. He knew of no
Ku.Klux as described In the papers. he had
been Invited by the best people to join an Or
ganization, the object Of which was purely
self-protection, with no DISCUSSES. Under the
lead OF bad whites rising Of the negroes was
apprehended, which, without some organiza-
tion on the part of the whites, must,be dis
astrous. The organization alluded to was
not political, and was never used for political
purposes. The negroe, did not essentially
sy@pathize with the p Republican tsS party; they
government. The alienation of a part Of the
people of the; South from the government had
been Increased since the war by radical meas.
ures, which were regarded as great wrongs, as
well as by military arrests without warrant or
charges; also by the trial and imprisonment OF
innocent men. He did not feel that he or any
OF the Southern people had committed
treason.
The President has recognized Waldemer Bo-
disco as Russian consul al New York.

rs OUR MOON INHABITED /:

But here the question is naturally suggested
whether our own moon, which Is but quar-.
ter of a million of miles from US, ought not
frat TO be examined for signs OF life, or, at
least, of being fitted for the support of life.
Whea the telescope wns hrst invented, IL IS
certain that astronomers were more hopeful
of recognizing such signs In the moon than ID
any other celestial body. AS telescopes OF
greater and greater power were CON
structed, our satellite was searched with
more and more eager scrutiny. And many o
long wear elapsed before astronomers would
accent the conclusion that the moons
surface is wholly untitled for the sup
port of any of those forms OF life with winch
we are familiar upon earlh. Inat tne oeiieI
q lunar men prevailed IN tne popular mino ~ -
long after astronomers had abandoned 1t Is
shown by the eager creduity with which the
story ofSir John Herschel's supposed observa-
tions of the customs and manners OF the Luna.

men. Who can forget the gravity with
which that most amazing hoax was repeated
in all quarters 1t was, indeed, ingeniously
contrived. The anxiety OF Sir John Herschel
TO secure the assistance OF King William, and

.Ed,oin J. Scott, Esq, Chairman Of Committee
Appotnted by Taxpayers Conreatton
DEAR SIR-Your favor of the 18th instant
was duly received, also your note Of this date
In reply, will say, the committee of which 1
have the honor to be chairman has been, for
the last six weeks, examining the books,
papers and vouchers of the financial depart
ments ofthe State, and the work is 30 for ad-
vanced tlfat no person or persons could at this
time, without going over the whole field OF In.
vestlgation again, practically act with the said
committee. The mass Of information and ev-
idence already gained Is being compiled by the
authorized clerks of the committee, and could
not be taken from their hands without great
ly retarding the laborious duties imposed
upon them. We are holding two sessions per
day, which we find positively necessary, In
order to complete the work before US.
We should be glad to have the committee
appointed by the late Taxpayers Convention
90 over the ground We have gone, and hope
they will do so, for the result OF the investisa-
tioa made by the two separate examining par
ties would prove the falthfulDess OF both.
We presume, on application to the different
financial officers of the State, the same facill-
ties for full and complete investigation of the
monetary affairs OF the State will be accorded
your committee as has been the legislative
committee. I am, yours truly,
(Slsned) JOHN 3. DENNIS,

mer. According 10 the best lnformatlon we
have been able to obtain, the difhculty grew
out of an old grudge. Only few words had
passed between tue parties, When Me0nags
caused his death In few minutes. An inquest
was held on Sunday morning, and the verdict
was to the effect that the deceased came to
his death from knife in the hands OF Nc
Ouage, and that the killing was wilful anu
felonious. After the killing McQuage made
his escape, but was captured early on: SUNDAY
morning, in the woods near the residence OF
Mr. J. B. McLaurin, by some of the citizens OF
that neighborhood, and was brought and lodg-
ed in jail, on Sunday afternoon, by Deputy
Sheriff knight. McQuage had recently been
released from the penitentiary, and has the
reputation of being a lawless character: so
far as we hayetbeen able to ascertain, bree-
den, up to the time of his death, has always
borne the reputation OF quiet anu peaeeaose
