GAINESVILLE LEAF TOBACCO
MARKET.
THE BEST SALE EVER MADE IN
THE UNITED STATES.

We give below the figures of sale
of 30i hhds. of selections made by
Harrison & Shelby, of the Gracey
Warehouse, ON the 10th and 18th
inst, which perhaps, surpasses any
sale ever made in the United States,
in the average price for so large a
number of hhds. The highest price
obtained was s26 80, and the lowest
So 80, the average for the entire 3O4
hhds. being SIS 80 5-13, which is the
best average we have ever known for
anything like SO large a sale. The
weight of the hhds. averaged about
LOGO pounds, which makes the aggre-
gate amount for which they sold
ST ,344 90.
The owners of the tobacco sold gave
a dinner at the salesroom on Friday,
to which we were invited, but which,
unfortunately for us, we were unable
to attend

RABID, fanatical Iowa, for the first
time in twenty-five years. has furnish
ed one Democratic member of Con-
gress. The triumph is greater for that
reason, and is an additional induce
ment to every true southern man to
lend his vote and influence to the
revolution so auspiciously begun. We
do not claim that sympathy with the
South had any agency in the results.
The North is just beginning to learn that
free South is inseperable from a free
North whatever the motive it is our
oppOrtunity-let us not throw it away
at the bidding of selfish demagogues.

o. NJ. BLACKMAN is a most worthy
citizen and deservedly a social favorite ;
but that does not remedy his grave mis-
take in arrying his individual wishes
against the interests of the people. He
not told us how he proposes to pro-
has mote the welfare of the country and
all We can infer is, that he will vote for
Andy johnson, which we are satisfied,
is contrary to the wishes of majority
of the white voters whom he will claim
to represent if elected.

WEST Virginia elects a full demo-

by Radicals for Radical use, that ad-
opted daughter of New England, re-
solved not to disgrace the mother
from which she was forcibly abducted,
and has nobly thrown off her allegi-
ance to corrupt and usurping Radical
ism. Unity was the secret of her sue
ccess, and the only independent who
reared his head, was decapitated.

THE STRIKE.-The miners who
struck for higher wages at Darlington
about two weeks ago are still holding
out. The Coal Company manifests no
disposition to yield to the demand for
increased wages and it is likely there
will be no early settlement of existing
differences. Negroes have been put to
work in the mines and seem to be
working acceptably. A car load OF
negroes from GAINESVILLE passed
through this city Tuesday evening en-
route to Earlington.-HopkiinsriH

ARKANSAS has carried the new con-
stitution by majority of 10000, and
her State ticket by the same. This is
the result of united action based upon
the doings of a properly constituted
convention. The reason why there is
unity in Arkansas, is, perhaps, because
the pricks of the bayonets are still
fostering. In Tennessee, the wounds
are cicatrized, and with the smart the
lesson is lost, as are ali the teachir gs
of experience, not enforced and per-
petuated by wisdom and integrity.

FORT WAYNE, IND, Oct. 2l.-The
fire which has been burning FIVE miles
west and southwest of this city, on the
prairie in the woods, now assumes a
serious aspect. 1t is estimated that
nearly 10000 acres of prairie and tim
bered land are burning on the Fort
WAYNE and Wabash railway. which
causes dense smoke to settle over the
city and surrounding country, making
il nearly as dark as night in the mid
die of the day. 1t is feared the fire
will reach the city if it does not rain
soon

. LET Us HAVE PEaCs.y

We assume it to be fact that the
first and highest duty of every patri-
otto opponent of Radicalism is to labor
earnestly for that harmony and united
effort which, alone, can successfully re-
sits the progress of consolidated tyran-
ny, with. its headquarters at Washing
ton. With every suchearnest friend of
freeand honest government, it must be
matter of deep regret to mark the eff
forts of those-perhaps equally honest
in their convictions-who, yielding to
prejudice, personal preference, or mis-
guided as to the stern duties ofthe hour,
separate frorl their natural allies, and
create division the only effect of
which is to give aid and comfort to a
mutual enemy and promote discord
without effecting the slightest reform.
We impeach not the intentions nor
the patriotism of such men, but sincere
ly regret the mental idiosyncrasies
which view all party movements as
corruptand, in spirit f hypercriticism,
reject the good that party may do be-
cause the manner of doing it comprtos
not with their ideas of a perfect integ
rity unattainable until men and parties
are remodelled by full restoration of
public virtue. Nor should they: CON-
plain of harsh judgments upon the
course they pursue, when they remem-
Der that, in times SO out of joint when
false pretences are the rule, man $
vote is the measure of his patriotism
and the only practical test of his
party afiinities. He that is not for us
is against us, is the only reliable polit-
zeal test, and itavails man nothing to
profess the warmest Conservatism, or
Democracy so long as he rejects the
candidates of either and votes for as
pirants who. hope to build up their sell
fish political fortunes upon the ruins
of the party they have betrayed whilst
protesting devotion to its doctrines.
And especially is this mock heroic
independent movement to be regretted,
now that a sense of danger is
awakening the North to its duty, and
thus opening the way of salvation for
the South and the whole country. 1t
has long been the feeling of many of
our citizens that the North alone
could shape the character of the gov
ernment, and that any effort on the
part of the South was labor in vain,
hence the political chaos that marks
our political opinions and actions.
But that time, we believe has passed.
The late effort in the North appeals
for the sympathy and cooperation of
of every true man in the South. We
therefore invoke all such to look alone
to the redemption ofthe government, to
leave minor issues of conventions and
party discipline to be adjusted, when
Radicalism the great cause of evil
shall have been buried out of sight.

THE Chattanooga outrage Conven-
ton committed its greatest outrage
upon its own party by proving con-
temptible farce and, if possible, a dis
grace to all connected with it. The re-
cent northern elections are a whitening
rebuke to party sunk so low in the
scale of responsibility, as to have to
rely, for its very existence, upon a sys-
tenn of lying and slandering, which
however, effective heretofore, in infu-
incing the votes of credulous fools and
ood-thirsty fanatics, is now worn so
threadbare that an idiot can see through
it, and sensible knaves dare not feign
blindness to the monstrous iniquity.
The chief business done was the ap-
pointment of an outrage committee
selected from the southern States, and
if they are smart, they will go to the
outrage department, in Washington,
where Williams can furnish them more
outrages there than they can hunt up
in year, and give to them an official
authority which even Grant will recog-
nize as of binding force. But, who
ever heard of a party that was forced to
call a convention of thieves and liars
to manufacture material for that
party's support-a party Boosting of
its christian civilization and claiming to
possess every virtue that adorns and
enobles human character.

JUDGE PORTER,

whose appearance on the stand drew
forth loud burst of welcome. He
wasted no time with studied exordi-
um, but rushed liz medias res and in a
tone and manner suggestive of patri-
otism and manly integrity, boldly and
without evasion, clearly and convinc-
ingly refuted every point raised by his
ingenious opponent. He satisfied
every Conservative and Democrat that
we are to have, in him a wise, efficient
and sternly honest Governor. Judge
Porter looked the victcr,-Maynard
seemed to experience in advance the
feelings of the vanquished-such were
the observations of many of the Con-
sentative Democrats all of whom went
home more than satisfied with their
able and gallant leader.

tiptoe, with the conservative element,
many Of whom feared that the wiley
Narragansett, whom they had previous
ly heard. might prove an over match
for their own gallant standard bearer.
Mr.. Maynard led off, atl2 o'clock,
and though hoarse, defended himself
and party with an ability and ingenuity
worthy of better cause. We have
no space for an analysis of his argu-
ments, so often heard and read as not
to need farther repetition. He was re-
peatedly applauded by those in sympa-
thy with him, but he knew too we'll the

it, or to become unmindful of the cas-
tigation in store for him, at the hands
