THE soUrHERN SITUATION.


WASHINGTON, D. G, Sept. 26-Mr. E.
Y. Saalley of the New York Tribune re-
turned to-day from an extended tour
through the South, in the course of which
be visited every Southern State except
Florida and Texas. BE found the white
people who are not Office holders every
where solid for Greeley, excepS in Georgia,
where there is a small Bourbon element
working indirectly for Grant, under the
leadership of Alex Il. Stevens; not large
enough. however, to throw the State into
the hands of the Radicals. The ne
groes, Mr.. Smalley thinks, will 90 almost
en- rnasse for Grant, except in Arkansas,
where there is a strong, well organize d
colored Greeley element. He found,
however, in all parts Of the South few
intelligent blacks supporting the Liberal
movement, but under great difficulties, on
account of the persecution of the Grant ne
proes, whose hatred towards these traitors,
as they STYLE them, has in many instances
eliminated in brutal assaults, and in few
cases in unprovoked murder. He thinks
that South Carolina is the only certain
State for Grant in the South, and that Mis-
sissippi is the only o,her Southern State
which will probably 90 for him. Florida,
Alabama and North Carolina he regards SIS
doubtful, with the chances however, In
Greeley's favor. Louisiana is very close,
Lut the influence and political power OF
Gov. Warmoth make it. almost certain Tor
Greeley. All the other States, he believes,
are sure to go for the Liberal ticket. In all
the close States he found the federal office
holders diligently at work for Grant, and
abundantly supplied with money and docu-
ments. They are flooding the country
with gross libeis upon Mr.. Greeley, intended
TO inaame the Southern mind against him.
These they send TO the white people,
Among the negroes they distribute Grant
medals, telling them they viii let them
wear them until election, and that they will
give them the medals if they vote right
In some places the postmssters and reve'
nue. officers have been supplied with money
to pay the negroes poll-tsx, and the UnioI
league and other secret organizations have
been recognized among the blacks through
out the South, and are exercising power
full influence il keeping the negro vote soli'
for Grant.

ELEOTORAL SPEAKING.


Oox and Hnghes-Lewie All Right.
10 the Editor Of the Union and American.
NEwBURG, LEWIS COUNTY, Sept. "a
70 g. esterday being the first day OF
Circnlt Court, quite a large crowd for Lew
Is county, which is small, was in attend
ance. A lively interest in the politics of
the country and the candidates before the
people vas manifested. Political speaking
having been previously announced, every
one was on tip-toe to hear the discussion.
Col. N. n. Cox, Of Franklin, the Demo
cratic Elector for this district, was present
and ready to enlist in the interest of Gree
ley and Brown. The Republican Elector,
Mr. Frierscn, was not present, but was rep
resented BY Judge A. M. Hughes, of Co.
lumbia. a s-s
At about 10 o'clock Col. Cox assembled
the stand, and for an hour addressed the
people, making one of the most powerful,
eloquent, effective and pointed speeches it
has ever been our fortune to hear. The
Colonel, TO use bis own expression, dealt
with the present and future, ignoring the
past as though the war had ended bun
dred years ago, as was also the question
that was instrumental in bringing 1t about,
and grappled with the issues Of the day that
are now demanding public attention. He
insisted that in Greeley was embodied the
necessary requisites and qualifications to
make model President, viz: honesty and
capacity; that he was humane, and since
the surrender had been the friend of the
South, etc, and was willing to-day to stand
upon the Cincinnati platform and admin
lister the government honestly and i'm.
oil ha (l1loy1nI ii ko
question Of tariff, the present banking sys-
TEN, civil service reform, etc, then arrsign-
ed President Grant and his administration
upon most fearful indictment, charging
frauds, corruption, nepotism, present
taking, incapacity, disgrsceful lobbying and
a total squanderiDg OF the public money,
official stealing, etc.
After Col. Cox concluded Judge Hughes
undertook TO answer him, hounderiDg con-
sidersbly and asserting wildly, showing an
utter want of information. This thing of
making political speeches is not Judge
Hughes forte. He couldn't answer Cox.
but built up his own man of straw, and
then knocked that down, but couldn't
knock Col. Cox's arguments down. He
thought Grant good man, honest, etc.
That he didn't blame Grant for remember
ing bis poor kin and giving them offices
that he was magDanimous to the South
and prevented the President, Andrew John
son, from having Gems. Lee, johnson and
others, arraigned, tried, ETC., for treason.
That Grant had received no presents
since he was inaugursted President.
His speech was just such statements as
these, endorsing in a measure Grants ad
ministration, etc.
Col. Cox's reply was crushing and with
ering, and we undertake to say that the
Judge in future, from this experience, vii
let Bunyan Frierson do his own speaking
Ny prediction is a good heavy vote for the
cause in this district in November.

PARIS, Sep. 5.-French dupliclty is curl
ously exemplifed by an allegation made,
and not rebutted, about ID. Gsmbetta's
life. He has two lodgings. One in Rue
Montaigne, where he receives the public
generally, and especially his constituency
and party friends. These lodgings are
small, poorly furnished; some of the furni-
ture is rickety. III. Gambetta dresses
shabbily here. In Rue Roquepine he has
a comfortable first floor, luxuriously fuTn-
ished; here he lives, but only his most in
innate personal friends are received here.
1t speaks lily for their delicacy to have be-
srayed his secret, as the revelation Of this
double life could have come only from one
Of them. Two households are kept by q
great many men. In one their wife and
family live; in the other their mistress and
sometimes the children by her. stumble
almost every day upon these double house
holds. How the men find money to sup
port them is a mystery of Paris, whose Sc
cret | am unable to discover. Henri
Kocbefort has no less than six lodgings, but
the reason of several Of them was to ena

highly desirable for the brains sake, as well as

MIR. REID,s SPEECH.

To the Editor Of the Union and American.
listened attentively to the greater por-
ton of Mr.. Reds speech on Saturday
night. He is an eloquent and forcible
speaker; and but for his peculiar Uietss,
might do the State some service.
From all could gather from his speech
he is for Greeley as second choice. In
this respect he is identical with the Demo-
cratic party, and yet he is mad with the
Democrats because they are not original
Greeleyites. He said the people of Ten
nessee made great mistake in not placing
themselves in accord with the majority of
Congress during Johnson's administration.
In this respect he is identified with the
Radicals. He was Mortified with the view
of Southern society and civilization, and
went into ectacies over the light and liber-
ty, the prosperity and glory of the North,
attributing the former to the Democratic
party, and the latter to the ruling party of
the North. think he would have US all
turn Republicans at once. Liberals if we
can, Radicals, if we must. But turn Re-
publicans. In this step, according to him,
lies our only hope of lite and salvation.
He warned the young men of the South
that the Demo cratic party was leading them
"into the valley Of death and into the gates
of hell"
But Mr.. Reid's fercest dsnunciation
were leveled against the precipitstors and
leaders, 'the conscr:pt officers and drill SER
geants, ''as he calls them, of the Lost Cause,
Now l remember when Mr.. Reid arose
before an immense concourse of citizens
at the Courthouse, and with his great heart
filed with love for the people of Tennes
see, and his breast heaving with patriotic
devotion for the whole South, exclaimed
in words that burned: IT IS TINE Fol
TENNESsE E TO DRAW TIE SWORD. Wa
he preci pitator Of the rebellion? vii
Mr.. Reid sully the name and fame of ont

dead while bis mouth is flied with tht
praises Of Abraham Lincoln? He is free t.
think, and act, and speak for himself, and
shall not object. But l also am free Il

A Glorious Day for Cheatham.
To the Editor of the Union and American:
MORRISTOwN, Tenn, Sep. p, 1S72.-
The candidates for Congress from the
State at large addressed large crowd at
this place tO-day-estimated to number not
less than 1900 people. Mr.. Maynard
opened the discussion in q two hours,
speech, and was followed By Gen. Cheat
ham, who was greeted with the most en-
thusiastic applause when he made his ap-
pearance on the stand. Cheer after cheer
went up from hundreds of voices for the
old war horse. He addressed his audience
in forcible language and style. He reviewed
the late State Convention at length, and the
circumstances of his being a candidate.
He defended the convention from the
charge of being packed convention in
clear and telling manner. He was APP
plauded throughout his speech, and the
greatest enthusiasm was displayed by his
many friends Of this section.
Gen. johnson occupied the
greater part of bis two hours time in bitter
TRADE against the late Convention and
those who now oppose him. He is in q
bad humor, and uses some violent language
which think he will regret when he ''cools
off," He gained nothing here to-day. His
political star has set, and it seems that he
knows it. This county is fully alive tc the
work of thorough organization, and will
give Gen. Cheatham rousing good vote.
He will carry over two thirds of the Demo
cratic vote of both this and Cooke county
We only ask Middle and West Tennessee
to do but half their duty, and all will be
well. East Tennessee will be no laggard in
sending up handsome vote for Gen

DIABOLISM.

Attempt 20 Throw from the Track
Train ON Which MIR. Greeley Was q
Passenger.
Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
LOUISVILLE, Sept. 27.-It is rumored
that an attempt was made Saturd sy even
ing last TO throw the express train from
Cincinnati, on the Short Line Railroad,
with the Greeley party on board, from the
track, near Anchorage, a station eleven
miles from here. Ties, rails and brush bad
been piled upon the track.
The train from ShelbyVille, which had
waited twenty-four minutes at Anchorage
for the express to pass, proceeded to the
town, and while getting under headway
struck the obstruction, and the pilot of the
engine was broken. The obstruction was
removed, and in a short time after the
Shelbyville train had passed the express
came laundering by at the rate of fort y
miles per hour.
