General Gordon ana "Carpct Bag''
Spenccr--A True .Acco,unt of the DitH.
From the Atlanta Herald. !

AS various accounts Of the difficulty
between General Gordon, the senator
from Georgia, and Spencer, the carpet
bagger, who, through fraud and vii
liany, enjoys the right to misrepresent
our sister state of Alabama in the SEN
ate, have been going the rounds of the
newspaper press, u Herald reporter,
learning that General Gordon had re-
turned to bis home, called upon him
and gathered the following statement
of facts in reference to IL. -
General Gordon received n letter
from Hon. John Forsyth, of Mobile,
requesting him to see that. the bill for
the removal of his political disabilities
be taken up and passed. The bill had
been reported on favorably by the COM
mittee, but under the rules of the SEN
ate could not DO taken up except by
unanimous consent. General Gordon
called it up, not supposing that there
could be any one who would object. He
was mistaken, however, for when it
was called Spencer said, ~ object"
General Gordon, who was sitting
near Spencer, said to him:
spencer, why is this; what obiec-
ton can you havew sst 4t
DIN him, | hate him. He has
abused me in the columns of his paper,
calling me acarpet Dagger, thief, black
guard, ETC., and ! intend to give him
something to hate me for"
The general replied: Spencer, L am
astonished at you; you certainly do not
intend to bring personal grievance
into the senate OF the United States and
allow your hatred of an individual TO
control yo,Tl vote. IF had a personal
enemy similarly situated, would take
pleasure in being the first to rise and
show him that was above such paltry
vindictiveness.n
Spencer said "that may suit Won.
but 1t is not my way of dealing with
an enemy.n
The general replied: "Well, Spen-
Ger, we will notdiscuss the matter. You
aud have different views, but give
You fair notice thatI intend to pass
this bill teiore the day is over"
In less than an half an hour after
wards, amid the confusion and push
ing and hurry to get bills through, the
general gotCarpenter to recognize him,
and Spencer who was either absent or
not paying attention, failed to hear the
bill called. II was read, and Carpenter,
who was president pro. tenn, said, "if
there is no objection, the bill will be
considered read third time and
passed. The general then took it,
carried tito the house, had IL enrolled
and brought back and signed; and
when 1t was announced, Spencer
jumped to his feet and moved to have
It reconsidered. General Gordon at
once offered to allow him tobe heard
u he would state publicly his reasons
for objecting; but Carpenter cut off
further debate by announcing that IL
was "too late, as the bill had been en-
rolled and signed, and had already
gone to the president for his sigma
