RUFUS RHODES made a good hit
at one of his appointments last
week. His debate with Munford
was over, leaving that doughty
champion much discounted. Esq.
McFall did not think it would do to
give it up so, and asked Rufus
whether he would discuss a little
matter with him. Rufus, always
ready, said he would do so with
pleasure, though it was not a usual
thing to encounter second antag-
onist after the first was disposed of.
The Squire then challenged him to
produce an instance where the DEM
ocratic party had affirmed the val
idity of the bonds. Rhodes pro-
duced an act of last session voted
for by the whole party Though
afterwards defeated by maneuver-
ing) the preamble of which affirmed
the validity of all of them. This
was a pretty good dose for the
Squire, but Rufus next brought up
the yeas and nays on the bill, and
exhibited on the list of yeas the
name of Mr.. Wilson, of Sumner,
which elected a perfect yell from
the crowd, while the worthy magis-
trate slipped quietly from the plat
form and made his way home in
silent meditation. Score a home
run for Rufus.

INDIANA.

On Tuesday next the election in
Indiana takes place, which has been
more closely and eagerly contested
than any state election for many a
day. We hear great stories of Her
culean efforts made by republicans
to reverse the evident fact that In
diana is democratic state. We
hear, for instance, of hordes of Ken
lucky negroes transported to Evans
vile and other places to give fraud
ulent votes, and quite recently of
Mr.. Don Cameron's arrival there
with a well-filIed barrel. We have
no means of ascertaining how much
truth there is in all this Though
there evidently is good deaD.
But of this our readers may be we'll
assured, that if, by hook or crook,
the republicans should succeed in
converting the democratic majority
there into a small minority, they
can't repeat the trick in the presi-
dental election of next month.
They will then have too many
states to attend to; at present they
are able to concentrate all their
force on Indiana alone.

SENATORIAL NOMINATION OF
TIE ROLTERs.


When we recorded the proceed
ings of the low-tax convention, SO
called, we mentioned that the nom
ination of state senator was accorded
to Mr.. Garner, of Springfield, Rob
ertson county. Since then Mr.. Gar
ner has declined the candidature,
being, as we are informed, unwil-
ling to cause division in the demo-
cratic party, though dissenting
from the majority of that party in
some important points. This is no
more than we WOULD have expected
from a gentleman Of Mr.. Gamers
high character and tried democratic
feeling.
His declension, however, necessi-
tated another nomination, for which
purpose another convention had to
be called. This body met on last
Monday. Only nine districts out of
nineteen were represented in this
county, and none in the two other
counties which constitute the sena-
torial district. Col. ]. P. Rogers
obtained the nomination. Col. r.
has been so far chiefly known as a
greenback candidate, who has been
seeking one office or another for a
very long time, unsuceessfully, with
the consolitory maxim 'better luck
next time'' always ready at the
tip of his tongue. We have not
heard whether he has made any
appointments to meet Mr.. Daniel,
his democratic antagonist.

GEORGIA ELECTION.

Colquitt has carried the state for
governor by largely over 40, 700 ma
jority, a result which will be salts
factory to all true democrats. 1t
will be remembered that the demo
cratic convention in that state failed
to make nomination. Mr.. Col
quit was largely ahead of all COM
petitors before it, but could not get
the requisite two-thirds. For many
days balloting continued without
altering this result, and at last the
convention adjourned, leaving
things in Stdtat quo. The executive
committee announced that no NOM
ination had been made, but advised
the\ people to vote for Colquitt,
which they have done.
The action of Colquitt's COMPETE
tors was discredItable; they ought
to have withdrawn in favor of the
foremost candidate when they found
that a nomination was otherwise
impossible, and failing to do so they
are deservedly beaten, and ought to
receive no further consideration
from the party.

gentleman to be admitted to the
lady's society instead Of giving to
the latter the power of admitting
them to public amusements or ex-
Guiding them therefrom.
But the letter of tsTI. r.. e. gives
us curious piece of information.
It appears that the new custom is
limited to the very exclusive circle
which consists of military gentle
men quartered at Washington and
their families, who adopt it as a
mark of distinction separating them
from circles less distislgue. We here
beg leave to record our profound
contempt for the military circle
quartered at Washington. Nine
tenths ofthem haveno business there
atall. They ought either to be with
the army in line, or, if there is no
use for them there, they should
cease to exist. We have not space
here to discuss the topic at length,
but refer our readers to Gen. Ha-
zen's excellent book, "The School of
the Army" that they may learn
how shoals of West Pointers make
interest with the powers that be to
be appointed on staff duty at Wash
ington, where they are of no use
whatever to the nation, but consti-
tute military lobby greedily solic-
iting for themselves all sorts of priv
ileges, emoluments and immuni-
ties which are carefully Withheld
from those who are doing the real
work of the army on the frontier.
And these, forsooth, these carpet
warriors, skulking from real mill
tary duty that they may parade
their epaulets and brass buttons be-
fore silly women, these army ex-
quisites are considered competent
to dictate what is de rigeur to the
first circles Of Washington society.
Let them be sent to the front or put
to making their own living in some
respectable occupation.

WIN. M. Daniel, Esq.

We have lost sight of Mr.. Daniel
for some time, during which he has
been making, as we learn, canvass
of Stewart county. He commences
now on Montgomery and Robert
son, Or Monday next, the 18th, he
is to speak at Springfield, We hope
to visit the metropolis of Robertson
on that occasion and get acquainted
there while we listen to what we do
not doubt will be a thoroughly able
exposition of state politics. We
are fortunate in our champions;
Daniel against Rogers, Bagwell
against Ledbetter and Rhodes
against Munford is esae-sided fight
all through as regards ability. 1t is
true that our champions will have
to encounter inveterate prejudices
fostered by clamorous invective on
one side, while, alas, the other has
so longremained silent, butwe repose
invincible faith in the final preva-
lence of truth if asserted with abili-
ty and conviction, and those condi-
lions are now beyond question full
filled at this time in our local polit-
ical contests.

WE insert with pride the follow
ing recognition of the merits of our
young fellow-townsman in Nash
Vile, every word of which we freely
endorse:
Mr.. Rufus Rhodes, who has been
nominated for representative in
Montgomery county, is making
brilliant and effective canvass
against an opponent who is young
enough to repent hereafter having
gone into a wild-goose chase. Mr..
Rhodes is young man of brilliant
promise, a sort of Stalwart young
Bismarck in his way. He is one of
those young men who was fitted by
nature for stormy times, and whose
tastes, inclinations and adventure
Gus spirit fit him well for the politi-
cal arena, while conservative and
cautions vein, along with dashing
style, will make him q SUCCESS as a
legislator. We long ago predicted
for him some day brilliant politi-
cal career, and we are glad to see
him, almost by accident, cast into
the political arena, where he will do
himself and the people of Montgom-
ery honor and serve them well.-

A Card from Mr.. Louis IIunfOrd.
Mr.. Louis MunfOrd considers his
expressions relating to civil rights
to have been misrepresented in this
journal. Whenever this is the case
we have but one answer; we give
the complainant the privilege of eX-
pressing in his own words what he
said, or what he meant to say, or
what he now desires to be under
stood as saying. The following,
therefore, is printed from his own
words in his own handwriting.
We are not going to enter into an
argument with him on the subject,
believing, as we do, that the agita-
ton of it is the most unfortunate of
the many unfortunate things which
Mr.. Munford has recently done:
Social matters regulate them
selves. l don't want to force the
colOred man to sleep with the white
man, or the white man with the
colOred man. Whenever the rail-
roads sell first-class tickets to the
white people they give them first
class cars whenever the railroads
sell first-class tickets to the cOlOred
people l want them to provide first
class cars for them also, and not
force them into the smoking cars
with their wives and children.
Whenever the white man is on trial
he has a white jury to try him
whenever the colored man is on
trial / want him to have a colOred
jury to try him. want to see the
eyes of the cOlored man of the south
opened to perfect liberty. | want
to see the old prejudices of the col
ored man against the white man
and the white man against the col
ored man disappear and be buried
forever under the tree of liberty.
l want to see the two races live to-
gether in the south in peace, plenty
and prOSperitV.

We gladly correct an important
error we made in our report of the
low-tax convention held in this
place. We there stated that the
secretary of the meeting was Mr..

we understand, is firm for the regu-
