The quidnuncs of to-day are, in mild de-
gree, exercised by the invention of table SO
arranged that the persons who sit to eat can,
in succession, bring round the several dishes
TO the front of each separate plate-unless,
indeed, two feasters disagree with each other.
Few people have passed middle life without
seeing SEINE such continuance. In May, 1914,
Mr. John Quincy Adams saw one at ReveL It
was the invention Of Gen. Norberg, and was
1t his house: ''He thought if he had this in
England he could make money with it;
but believe not much. He appeared to
me to have bestowed much labor and
ingenuity to produce small effect.
It is merely movable circular leaf in the
middle Of the table, which by the machinery
may be turned round SO as to bring each dish
before each person at the table. and shelf
under the table upon which plates may be
slowed away" This passage is in Mr.. Adams
diary of May Is. 1874. On the 18th he dined
at Gen. Norberg's. The party was seven in
number. 1--WE dined at his round table, with
out attendants; there was only one servant,
Who brought in the dishes and put them on
the table. But that servant might have waited
on the whole company, and would have saved
them the continual trouble Of helping them
selves This table is o mere gimcnck. -

|BEN HILL AND ALEX. STEPHENS.


Correspondence of .he Courier-Journall
AUGUSTA, Ga. Oct ~, 1874.
So dissatisfied were the people of Augusta
and Richmond county with the speech Of
Hon. A. H. Stephens, delivered here on the
18th, which was published in the Courier
Journal, that they determined to have reply
made to it. OF all men in the South pre-
eminently able to do SO, and effectualiy, Hon.
B. II. Hill stood at the head of the list. SO
the very day after its delivery formal letter
was written and passed through the commu-
nifty for signatures, cordially inviting him to
address the people here on the questions OF
the day. He accepted the invitation, and
last night Girardey's Opera House was packed
like O box of sardines with an audience in
full sympathy with what we're known in ad
vance, or at least in outline, to be his views
The great offense Nh. Stephens had given
the people of his district was his defense of
Gen. Grant in the Louisiana matter, and his
virtual Endorsement of him for . third term
but particularly the former. It is certain that
in this he does not reflect the opinions Of
bakers dozen of intelligent men in the Au-
gusta district, and if the Democratic conven-
| ton had known that he held such notions of
Grant, he never would have received the
nomination.
Mr.. Hill opened his address by saying that
it was sad to see nation die. Prior to the
elections recently in Ohio end Indiana he had
almost despaired of the Republic, but they
proved to him that the people of the North
were at last awakening to realization of the
dangers they were in. After some other in
troductory remarks, he passed to the discus
sion of the Louisiana question, and dwelt
upon it to the close of his speech. He said
that Gen. Grant was directly responsible for
the present usurpation in that State The
recent collision in the streets Of New Orleans
illustrated most powerfully to the people of
the United States the monstrous villainies
practiced upon the people Of Louisiana, and
that they were upheld III their iniquities by |
Gen. Grant and his Cabinet. To prove this |
he read the dispatches which passed between |
Kellogg, Packard and Casey and Attorney !
General Williams
IT Stephens was opposed by an Independ-
ent Democrat, he would most certainly be de-
teated. 1t is utterly impossible for any man
to shoulder Grant and carry him through
any district in Georgia from the starting of
the campaign. Stephens picked him up dur
ing the last days, and gave the Democracy no
time to call another convention or to put out
another candidate in any other way. The
vote for him will be very light.

THE ELECTION.

Although the election which took place yes
terday was one Of the most interesting, ex.
citing and important that has ever taken place
in this city, yet it was one of the most orderly,
peaceful and well conducted that we have ever
seen. Every one entitled to vote found no
obstacle and the consequence was that the
largest vote ever polled in New Orleans was
cast As matter of course the Democratic
ticket was triumphant everywhere. We do
not believe that single ward will show ma
jority for the Republicans It is estimated
that the majority Of the Democratic ticket will
range from fifteen to twenty thousand. Such
q vote will secure the triumph of our ticket in
the State, and will give quieus forever to
Radical rule in Louisiana.
The orderly and peaceful character of the
election is terrible rebuke to those Radical
agitators who have SO persistently misrepre-
sented our people. It gives the lie to the
ISLANDERS of our political enemies, who would
make it appear that our people were still in
rebellion and still unreconstructed.
The vote yesterday is full vindication of
all that has been said against the party in
power. It proves beyond doubt that it has
no hold upon the people save that given to it by
Federal bayonets. It proves that the honest
and intelligent people OF the city can at all
times protect their interests and create their
governments in way best suited to their
welfare and their prosperity.
New Orleans has done its duty nobly and
thoroughly. If other parishes will perform a
1.-THE of their part, Louisiana will be COM
oletely redeemed from carpet-bag rule, and

.atiOns for third term.

THE NEGRO VOTE,

The result of the voting yesterday demon
strates the fact, beyond doubt, that the Radi
Gals have lost their power and control over the
negroes. Hundreds of colored men stepped
up to the polls, and, with open Democratic
tickets in their hands. proclaimed their inten-
ton to vote for the white men who were their
friends and who gave them employment and
paid them their wages. The result was that
the Democratic ticket was carried by ma
jority beyond the most extravagant anticipa-
tons of the most sanguine.

THE FEDERAL GLASSES.

1.-The policy of the Federal Government il
viewing the bad element of Louisiana whit
men through q magnifying glass, and tn
frauds and co1uptions of the carpet-bagger
through diminishing glass, is SO exasperat
ing to just men that it goes far to make then
forget the real danger Of the colored man"
Special Correspondent N. 7. Times.
The above extract from the last letter o
"Gar" to the New York Times is so exceed
ingly suggestive and truthful that we almos
hope somebody will have it printed in yer!
large golden letters, and send it to Grant fol-
his special edifcation.
It would be difficult task to frame an in
dictment against the General Government fol
sins committed against the South in more
terse or torcible language than that employed
in this brief sentence.
The whole difficulty is summed up therein
in most lucid and admirable manner, and
Senator Morton, Mr.. Conklin, Mr.. Williams
and President Grant can, if they will take
that sentence as their guide, cure all the
troubles in the South in q few short weeks.
All that will be requisite is for them to throw
away both the magnifying and diminishing
glass, and look at the condition of the white
and colored people with calm and unpreju-
diced eyes.
This, we are aware, would not be pleasant
task for the men who are responsible not
only for the gross wrongs inflicted upon the
Southern whites, but for the great scandal
which has been created and which weighs
upon the Administration and the Radical
party like hideous nightmare.
It has become a sort of second nature for
Williams and Morton to regard everything
that the white people Of the South do as very
wicked and deserving of the severest punish
ment; whereas negroes may commit the most
heinous outrages and crimes, and they not
only 60 UNPUBLISHED, but are frequently re-
warded therefor by advancement to Office.
An ordinary alteration between two white
rowdies in the streets of a Southern city is
sufficient to cause Williams to bring to bear
upon the matter his magnifying glass, and is
'ue orders for troops to quell the threatening
against the loyal carpet-bag-
gers and their negro dupes.
Moses or Kellogg may commit the most pal
Fable outages, may violate every law State
md national, and rob the people ad Hbitum,
md the diminishing glass has the effect Of
making their most monstrous sins and often
enses as very pardonable piccadilloes. Scar"
S right, the reflection by just men upon these
continuous and systematic wrongs are enough |
o exasperate them, and will be fortunate in
Iced if their sympathies and affections be not
holly estranged from government under
7hich they have suffered so grievously.

THE POLICY.

| A well devised plan of intimidating white
men is distinctly discernible in the arrests
that have been made by United States deputy
marshals, supported BY the United States
work was begun at Coushatta, because the
killing of the Red River carpet-baggers had
created great outcry throughout the North,
and Major Merrill and the power that sent
him there knew that the country would justify
almost any outrage petpetrated there, believ-
ing it was to bring to justice those who had
committed murder. The next arrests were
made in outlying parishes, strongly anti-radi-
cal, and which are remote from telegraphic
communication with the country-such as
Claiborne, Natchitoches, Grant and Rapides.
The object evidently has not been to bring
offenders to justice, nor has it been, to any
great extent, to infict hardships upon the ar
rested parties; the creatures engaged in this
vile business know that all honest men in
Louisiana have terror of Federal Justice;
they know that our people know that arrests,
trials and convictions to penitentiaries under
Federal authorities and by Federal Courts in
Louisiana, are confined to those who oppose
the Kellogg usurpation, Radical rule and ras-
cality, and who, inspired by the spirit OF free
dom and desire to advance the Interests of
the State, oppose the Republican ticket; and
that, knowing this, and being honest men,
when the U. S. marshals, surrounded by the
Federal troops appear among them, they
abandon their hom,s and fly to the woods.
Indeed these creatures know that our people
have come to regard the Federal authorities
and the Federal army in the South not as mi
nisters of justice and protection, but as thieves,
robbers and oppressors and, that from them,
defenseless as we are, our people fee
This explains the whole thing of the arrests
in North Louisiana. The parishes in which
the arrests have been made with tho excep-
ton of Red River, where Merrill & Co. think
the country will sustain any outrage they may
perpetrate) are largely anti Radical and the
purpose is through the terms, not of the JUS
tice of the Federal Government, but of its
yindictiveness and brutality, to drive our peo-
pie to the woods
In DeSoto. Natchitoches and Claiborne we
learn that to a partial extent this infamous
policy has been successful but fortunately it
has not accomplished much our people, as a
general thing, have not been scared and those
who fled at first have returned, and there are
very few who will not be on hand to vote Mon
day. To all We say, be not intimidated by
these scandalous proceedings. We are citizens
OF the United States nay, more than this,
we are freemen, and we must and will stand |
BY our rights.
We are not and cannot be inundated nor
made to relinquish our efforts to redeem this |
State from Radical misrule. Shreveport Times.

Coon ORDER.-A great many elections have
taken place in New Orleans, but none, we ven-
ture to say, has ever been marked by such
perfect order and peaceful conduct as attended
the election yesterday. Although excitement
ran very high yet there seemed to prevail q
determination, on the part of every one, to
maintain quiet and suppress every attempt at
disturbance. The consequence was the most
peaceful and orderly election ever seen in this

"SERVES HIM RIGHT"

The Pittsburg Dispatch, of the 3Oth ult.
one of the strongest Radical papers in tn
country, and one which has been most violen
against the course of our people in this city,
says, under the above heading:
We are free to confess to a feeling of gratii
cation that the Conservative leaders of New
Orleans have decided to commence proceed
ings against William Pitt Kellogg, Gen. Long
street, Police Superintendent Badger and
others belonging to the administration party
for murder.
The allegation Of ofense is connected with
the rotous proceedings on the day of the revo
luton. 1t is set forth that the several persons
named conspired against the lives Of citizens
while the latter we're engaged in exercising
rights guaranteed them under the Constitu-
ton. Briefly stated, those rights had refer
ence to the removal and protection of arms
that were shipped to the White Leaguers OF
the South, and whose seizure were ordered by
Kellogg
Had such proceeding as is above set forth
been proposed any time within ten or fifteen
days after the eneute, we would have regarded
it as the most impudent upon record. The
idea of these breakers of the peace suing the
officers of the Government for REFRESHING
their riotous disturbance would have been so
absurd, that one could only nave laughed at
it. But Kellogg has proved himself such q
temporizer and coward since, that the present
course of the Conservatives helps at least to
show up his cowardice in vivid colors, and
therein does good service.
When Kellogg was reinstated he should
have at once begun a prosecution OF the
rioters, and if justice is to be had in Louisi-
ana Courts, punished them to the last man,
and to the extreme limit of the law. But, no.
On getting back he was only too glad to hold
parley and make compromises with them.
By so doing he virtually admitted weakness
that entitled him to universal contempt.
Nor can we in any sense blame the Con-
servatives for doing now something like that
which Kellogg ought to have done, but re-
fused to do. Whoever was rightful Governor
should have prosecuted. Kelloggs failure TO
prosecute was in itself sort Of confession
that he was not the rightful Governor. What
wonder, then, that the Conservatives take adj
vantage of his want of courage and propose
to hold him and his associates as the offenders
on the 14th of September? If he be indicted
and found guilty, many of those who formerly
supported him will be the first to say, ''served
him right
