The Columbus Democrat says: Cali
of sudden the Republican press and
leaders a1rogate to themselves great
deal of credit for the new ten-dollar
bond. Well, is the new ten-dollar
bond anything else than interest bear
ing currency? And why could they
not have been issued eight or ten
years agO2 What is it but new form
at lower rate of interest of the COM
pound-interest-bearing note of 1868
which was so eagerly sought for by
the masses? Who is responsible
of the bond holders and the syndicates,
do the new ten-dollar certificates diff.
commended ten years ago by Pendle-
ton, for which he was assailed as q re-
pudiationist and demagogue What
or who can prevent person from
subscribing for million of them, or
of converting them into full bonds at
his pleasure2 What or who will be
able to prevent him from disposing of
his full bonds at par and rei-nvesting
in the certificates whenever it is his
interest to do SO? In what. then. do
they differ from the interconvertible
bond we have already mentioned 2
To what party is the credit due for
this great achievement which will
gradually make the people of the
United States the owners of its debt,
and relieve US from our subsection to
foreign bondholders, unless, Indeed,
the Republican party again obtains
possession OF Congress and commences
to do the servile work of Wall street
by restricting the issue of the four per
cent. certificates7 These are questions
which voters should answer tor them
selves, and not allow the politicians
to answer for them.'

Your brethern and friends throughout

solicitude the outrages heaped upon
you by your rebel masters, and are do.
ing all they can to alleviate your mis-
cries and provide for your future hap

Hayes, by his iniquitous Southern pol
icy, has deserted you, while the Dem
ocrats, who now have control of Con-
gress, will seek to re-enslave you If
yoa remain in the South, and, to pro-
tcct you from their designs, the Colo
nization Society has been organized
by the government TO provide land for
each head of a family, which will be
given in bodies of l6O acres gratuit-
ously. This land is located in tho
best portion of Kansas, in close prox-
unity to Topeka, and is very produc-

AS a sample of the fairness with
which the Federal Supervisor law
is enforced by the Radical politicians
read the following testimony Of Mr..
Aerns, Marshal of the Philadelphia
District, before the Wallace Commit
tee:
"Mr. Kerns, Of Philadelphia, testi-
fed that on the day prior and on the
day of election in Philadelphia, the 7th
and 9Th days of November last, he en-
ployed seven hundred and fifty Dep
uty Marshals, who were stationed in
the various polling precincts. They
were paid $40 for their two days SER
vice, were all Republicans, and they
made ty-eight arrests, some with
out warrants"
Let it be remembered that upon ex-
animation sll but two of those arrest
ed were discharged from custody as
being guiltless Of any attempt to ille-
gally exercise the franchise: and then
tell us if these election laws are not
odious and oppressive. Is it any
wonder that the Radical politicians
are 80 persistent in their efforts to re-
tain these laws ppon the statute books
by which they are able to derive such
party advantages by 'tyranuizing over
the people? 4"

Destructive Storm south.

ATLANTA, GA, April 10.-Reports
Just received here show that Thurs
days storm was disastrous in q large
part of South Georgia and Alabama.
Five persons are reported killed and
number of others wounded. There
is also q great loss of fences, and many
farm houses were damaged. Hail
fell heavily in some quarters, and
many fruit trees were stripped. The
tornado extended over many counties
and crops are injured to great ex-
tent. The largest land-wash known
for years has taken place, streams ris-
ing above the highest water-mark, and
miles of country are overflowed and
damaged.
CHARLESTON, S. c., April ia
large quantity of provisions aad con-
siderable money are being sent from
here to WATERFORD for the relief of the
sufferers by the tornado there We'd
nesday.
The hall and dwellings and every
church in that place were demolished,
and the work of destruction was ac-
complished in less than two minutes.
The killed were Mrs. DR.. Geo. Phlle-
man Sanders, Banj. White, q boy
named Scott, Mrs. Jackson Grant and
Lydia Ford, colored.
Four cOlOred men who were on q
tprpentine plantation in the track of
the storm are missing. 1t is reported
that the bodies of two colored children
are lying at the camp-ground, eight
miles above here.

ST. LOUIS, April 2O.-The negro
Hegira continues, every boat from the
South bringing fresh arrivals of delud-
ed cOlOred people. Altogether 6,4OO
plantation hands have left their cotton
fields on the way North, of whom only
2,3OO haye paid their own way to Kan
sas. There are left $50 refugees in the
city, OF whom over eighty are sick and
all ofthem homesick. The cOloredRelief
Committee, assisted by "bloOdy shirt"
Republicans, who seem to be sent on
transpianting of the Southern negro,
have collected over $1,000 for the pur-
pose. The reports from Kansss go to
show that that stronghold OF Republi-
canism does not take as kindly to the
new -comers as might be wished by
the stalwarts. CiIles into which the
tide of immigration is tending, have
already began to prOtest against being
made the recipients aud guardians OF
q pauper population. An Intelligent
colored man named Harris has arriv-

law. He contrxdicts the report of out.
RACES committed by Southern whites
upon tho negroes, and brings with
him the affidayits of prominent eiti-
zens of GreeDville, of both parties. .sus-
tanning his assertions. His mission is
undoubtedly to advise the refugees to
go home, and there is little doubt that
he will not have Q very hard job to
accomplish, as the negroes are finding
out that their escapade left of being
romantic when the upbound boat
reached this city. The Relief Com
mittee have sent q Committee to Kan
sas to investigate the way the negroes
have been received, treated and dis
posed of. AS they have not yet re.
ported, though they have been several
days there, it is believed that they
have nothing favorable to report upon
the movement.

IT claimed the fact that there were
only 1924 failures in this country
for the first three months of 1879
against 1856 for the same period in
1873 Indicates vast improvement In
the financial condition of the country.
Well, it would not be strange if put
ting a stop to the destruction of green
backs, and the remonetization of sil-
yer and the backset the destructive
financial policy of the Republicans has
met at the hands of Democratic
House has inspired the business and
producing people with some little
hope tor the future.

THE silly CRY of revolution raised by
the Radical politicians because the
Democratic Congress determine to
wipe out the edious Election laws and
restore to the people their ancient
rights of conducting their ewn esiec-
tions unawed by Federal bay onets, has
lost its terrors. Tho people prefer
more solid argument and less sophlstry
and denunciation to convince them
that . return to the policy and prac-
tices of the government during three
quarters Of . century of its history is
revolutionary and unsafe. They be-
lieve themselves to be capable of self
government, and want no glittering
federal bayonets to prevent them from
committing hari-kari.

Is GRANT INSANEs
A Curious story Coming All she
Way From Europe.
Washington Cor. Atlanta constitutional

Washington Cor. Atlanta constitutional
For three months there have been
curious stories told about Gen. Grant
which excited the astOnishment, to say
the least, of the punctilious courts of
Europe. Some scandal was OCCASION
ed by the reproduction Of part of q
paragraph from q Spanish journal, at
which specifically asserted that he was
intoxicated while at the Escurial, and
in such a way as to make it noticeable
to every one present. Other things
have occurred which the most lenient
charity could not condone, and very
much scandal has occurred in Euro.
pean courts in consequence.
An officer of very high rank in one
of the services of the United States,
who has just returned from one of the
countries visited by Grant, furnishes
an explanation which entities the ex-
President to the respectful pity of the
country rather than to its sneers. The
story, substantially, is that Grants
mind is seriously impaired; that it has
been threatening for long time, which
was one cause for his going abroad.
While in Germany a most noted sur
geon was consulted, whose opinion
was that the disease threatened insan-
ity. 1t was hoped that change, free
dom from excitement and anxiety
would work cure, but this has not
been the result; and while the attacks
are intermittent and irregular, they
are the cause of great anxiety to his
family and friends.
The officer added that these facts
very few of the eeX-Presidept's friends,
and only those whose discretional re-
gard will impel the prOfundest secrecy.
This information was verified in rath-
er unexpected way by some inquiries
in regard to the subject addressed to 9
mast particular friend of Grants, and
one who benefited quite as much by
the late administration, In both terms,
as any single individual. His reply
to a direct question was such as to
make it certain that the story told
above had been talked of in the inner
circle. Even now, what will be done
if 1t is true Is matter Of grave consid-
Grafton to the very few intimates who
have been advised of what has occur
red abroad. The fear seems to be that
in case of an "ovation across the con-
tinent" as has been intimated, he might
do or say something under the pecu-
liar excitement that would result,
which would make the truth known
to the public, aud thereby allow the
affecting story to be subject of popu-
lar gossip, to the infinite pain of his
family and friends,

Threatened Rev ol luti0n In R US sia.
The Nihilist conspiracies have caused
q state of terror and CONSERVATION
throughout the Russian Empire and q
proclamation has been issued virtually
placing the whole country under mer-
cuess martial law. The Daily News,
(pro-Russian) says:
eve can not attempt to forecast the
result of the duel between Nihilism
and Militarism, to which this procla-
nation seems to be the challenge. 1t
is an attempt to meet the disturbers
with something like their own
weapons, and to put down lawlessness
by the suspension of law. The mere
confession that such an attempt is nec-
essary must seem a very serious step
for Government which for some years
has arrived at being considered civ
ilized government. For the time dur
ing which this ukase lasts, and in the
wide and important districts to which
it applies, Russia ceases to be what
she has recently been, and relapses
into a condition ofpractical barbarisAl
at once, and without even the form of
anything that. can be called trial.
Any mans life or his fortune may be
taken from him in these six great cities
and their dependencies. All the in
conveniences of such state Of things
must be borne by the millions in order
that but small but determined band
of evil doers' may be suppressed. Per-
haps this evil state of things would
not be too much to bear if it were like
ly to relieve the country of the malig-
nant political disease from which it
appears to be suffering. But if such a
relief were to result from such meas
ures, it would be for the first time in
in history. The military tribunals OF
the six Governments may punish
swiftly and savagely, but they will
neither prevent nor cure"
