Einard, Newberry C. H.;]Jae. fl rant, Union; Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. Thc Sew Outcry Against th? South. The Washington Chronicle and other of the more ultra of the radical press, are try? ing to find exouses for Executive and Con? gressional interference in the affairs of the Southern States. The Tribune, insists that "the situation in Georgia is grave enough to warrant prompt investigation;" and its co-laborer at Washington will have it that there is still "no more important question than that of the future oondition of the late rebellious States." What these journals de? sire the Government to do, they do not clearly explain. The Tribune wants "inves? tigation," but into what, concerning what, under what authority, or with what object, it does not specifically tell. So, again, the Chronicle domands that "the ascendancy of the loyal people" shall be preserved, and the machinations of "a re-act io nary party" frustrated, but the means to be employed, or the authority under whioh the Executive should interfere, it fails to indicate. The object of the Tribune, in directing the volume of radical wrath to Georgia, may be conjectured. It is on the lookout for causes of quarrel with that State, with the view of re-opening the status of its recon? struction when Congress re-assembles. The steady progress of the State toward regular and prosperous industry is not denied. The efforts it ia making to attract foroign popu? lation, and the cordial reception given to all who go there in an honest search for homes, are facts not to be gainsaid. But the Bul? lock party want a monopoly of all tho offices and of the Legislature into tho bar? gain, and they know that their only chance lies in a forcible upsetting of the present order of things, and their installation by Federal order and under Federal manipula? tion. They caused the fifteenth amend? ment to bc rejected, ira order that Northern indignation might be oxcited against thu State. And having failed to win the sym? pathy of Congress, they aro concocting bugaboo stories of outrage and persecution and danger to "loyal" interests, in defiance alike of fact and probability. Tho Tribune seems to be enlisted in thoir service. The Washington oracle takes a wider aim. It objects, not to Georgia particularly, but to the wlaole South; and it urges a policy which would end in re-opening reconstruc? tion-undoing what has been done, and multiplying obstacles to tho completion of what remains unfinished. It assumes that the authority which forced through recon? struction in the first instance is at liberty to do as it pleases with tho entire South. To prevent "re-action" and to seoure "loyal ascendancy" tho Government may-accord? ing to the Chronicle-throw the South back into anarchy, and enact whatever frosh con? ditions it deems necessary for the further ance of n "loyal policy." The proposition is too monstrous to be entitled to serious discussion. Its promulgation, however, is worthy of mention, as au illustration of tho madness of partisanship, and a key to the invention of Southern outrages. There are Southern newspapers whick suggest that much of this new-born ferocity is traceable to a ?er/r-game in real estate speculation, with which a recent traveling party is said to bo identified; but before accepting this con? struction of the new outburst of violence, we await further evidence. [New York Times. -o A FOREIGNER'S ACCOUNT OF AN ELECTION IN SOUTH CAROLINA.-The Washington cor? respondent of the Baltimore Gazette, writiug to that journal under date of the 14th inst., says: I met to-day, at Willard's, two Nova Scotian?, who have been spending the winter at Aiken, South Carolina, which is becom? ing (juice a resort for persons afflicted with pulmonary disoases. They came North, vi<t Richmond, and report the crops generally .doug the route ns in a flourishing condi? tion. They were full of sympathy for tho Southern people, whose unhappy condition strikes thom the more forcibly from tho freedom they enjoy at home under the Bri? tish flag. They spoke of au election they witnessed, whero day aftor day the conserv? atives had a majority, and tho polls wero kept open for Ihreo days, until negroes could be brought from tho country around for a distance of twenty miles, to obtain a rv.dical majority. What is the use of suf? frage to thc Southern people, they asked, if elections aro to be conducted iu this way? -o Works of art -Modem fashionable ladies. I ENGLAND AND THE UNITED STATES.-The j London correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer writes: When it was known that Mr. Reverdy Johnson's Alabama treaty had boon so unnui ? mously rejected, it "was felt that some fur ! thor demand was likely to be made upon I the Government, but I am suro no ono dreamed for a moment how extensive that I demand would be. The enormous charac? ter it has now assumed has taken nearly every one's breath away, and tho whole community is still poudcriug over tho mag? nificent combinations of figures contained in Mr. Sumner's speech. This speech is, under all the circumstances, accepted as representing tho views and intentions of tho United States Government, and it is fully expected that Mr. Motley will come hero instructed to make in form the demands im? plied by its language. The immediate effect upou the publio mind has been, of course, exactly what might have beeu ex? pected. The view taken of the subjeot is this: That the new demand is to be, first, a pub? lic humble apology on the part of this coun? try, through its government, for its errone? ous course- during tho recent war; and, se? condly, tho payment of something like 400, 000,000 sterling in the sh apo of damages. To this tho unanimous voice of the people gives but ono reply, viz: That neither pro? position can or shall bo entertained for a moment. I have before me at this moment the articles on the subject from all the lead? ing British journals, friendly and unfriendly to the United States, and numerous private letters from English friends of both those characters, and they all breathe the same spirit. They are oouohed in various tones of indignation, regret and resentment; but they all evince the same determination ta retint both of these demands, if need be, tc the very death. -o "THE RADICAL PARTY THE MOST CORRUPT THAT EVER CURSED THE LAND."-Tho above caption is from an article of the New York Herald, from which we copy the following condensed paragraph: "The fact has becomo patent that the Republican party is tho most corrupt that ever cursed our land. During the war, it leaders fell upon the National Treasury ant tho public credit like so many ravenoui wolves. Their jobs and jobberies in tin way of army contracts, in the sale of rottet old hulks for transports, in the building o new war vessels that proved shells or abor tiona, aud in everything connected witl supplies, including provisions, clothing forage, hospital stores, and so on to tho eu< of tho catalogue, for the use of tho arm; and navy, were enough to appal any ollie than tho American people. These deprave? and hungry leaders, with appetites for th< spoils of office still lingering in their insn tiable maws, hnvo now fastened upon th Senate of tho United States, and, with a avariciousness that spurns all compromise reason and control, demand that no n\ pointmcnt shall be made without their hav ing a finger in the selection. In thohomel phrase of a Western Senator, they aro pei sistently 'dingdongiug* every member o that body; and, it is mortifying to acknovi l?dge, they have in that body friends au? confreres os corrupt as themselves, who ar ready aud are employed to do their biddin in making Indian treaties, allowing enoi mons grants of laud for private purpose) aud engaging in other scandalous practices besides encouraging fraudulent appoinl men ts to office. " -o THE MURDER OF DR. AYER.-Tho Gran Jury of Jefferson County found a true bi for murder on Tuesday last against Wilso Flournoy, a freedman, for the killing < Dr. Ayer, radical member of tho Legish ture from that County. Tho case was calle for trial on Tuesday evening, and a motioi was made by Wilson's couusel for a coi tinuance, on the ground that the bill ha just been returned against him, and that h had had no time for preparation for h trial, and because of tho great exciteraei in the County growing out of tho rocot homicide The Court granted the cont nuance, and ordered the prisoner to 1 taken from tho Louisville jail and brougl to the jail in this city, which was done o Thursday evening. There was much foe ing among tbe negroes in Jefferson again the accused, and the jail had beeu guarde by tho whites to prevent a threatened lynd ing of Wildon by tho colored people. Wilson denies tho homicide, but tho nv .lenee, we learn, is of thc most eouvincin character as to his guilt. [Augusta Chronicle awl Sentinel. A party of wealthy Germans, residents Memphis, while enjoying au excursion < the Mississippi ia a miniature steamboat, < Sunday evening last, wore thrown in ti water by tho upsotttng of tho boat, and fi of tho number wore drowned. The ba was a n o .Iel, of about half tho size of common tug or tow-boat, and was built 1 th? owner to illustrate a different kind wheel from that in general uso. A bill for the annexation to Boston Dorchester, its largest suburb, passed t Massachusetts Senate yesterday. The p: ject of enlarging tho city still more by nd ing to it the city of Charlestown and t town of Summerville, ia under considcrati in the Legislature. Special Moticos. TABLE TALK WITH A VICTIM OP IN? DIGESTION.-Reader, wo will suppose yon a martyr to dyspepsia. If you aro not, so much tho bettor for you. If you are, perhaps you may pro? fit by this paragraph. You have just finished your dinner, we will say, and foci as if you had swallowed lead, inetcal of wholesome food. You have a sensation nf tightness round tho upper part of tho diaphragm, as if some enako of tho constrictor tribo held you in ita embrace, and had knotted its coila over tho pit of your stomach. You feel supremely miserable; and auch ia tho pe? nalty which your complaint exacta after every moah What do you desire? Ease, of courao. An exemption from the incubus that roba you of all enjoyment during tho day, and disturbs your rest at night. Take, then, thia piece of information ; You suffer needlessly. HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS will as certainly cure all your agonizing symtoma as tho day on which you road this article will bo succeeded by another. Perhaps you aro incredulous; but if you havo read tho testimony of tho eminent citizens, in every walk of life, who have teated the preparation, and submitted the results of their experience to the public through tho press, you ought at loaat to have sufficient faith to make a trial of it in your own caso. It is a pure vegetable tonic and alterativo-tho only medicino in the world entirely adapted to your complaint. If you aro in the habit of taking any alcoholic excitant aa a palliative, abandon it, and try thia wholesome medicated stimulant. If it does you no good, aay so; but you will not do that, for it baa never yet failed, in a Bingle instance, to cure dyspepsia, biliousness, and their various comitants._May 16 t6 M&- PHILOSOPHY OF MAIIKIAGK_A NEW COUBSE OF LECTUBES, as delivered at the Now York Museum of Anatomy, embracing tho subjects: How to Livo and What to Live for; Yonth, Maturity and Old Age; Manhood Generally Reviewed; The Caneo of Indigestion; Flatulence and Nervous Diseases accounted for; Marriage Philosophically Conaidered, Ac.
