The returns from Virginia show clearly that the j *1^4. c*a*a moo o /vmfpat. hp- , so-caueu eieuuvu iu wm >tik> * . tween the native whites and the blacks, headed by a few unprincipled renegades, hailing from vari. ous quarters of the globe, who used the negroes for their own purposes. In Louisiana, Georgia and Alabama, the whites had so little to do with the elections that it can scarcely be called a contest; but in those States the negro vote was delivered in favor of Radical conventions and Radical candidates, with the precision and regularity of volleys. The negroes, it seems, have determined not to agree with their former masters, and have given themselves up to new masters, who drive them to the polls like sheep to the .shambles. This being the case, as proved in all the Southern elections, we endorse the following sentiment from the Raleigh Sentinel: "The white man, in view of such indications of a purpose to convert the ten excluded States into Hack States, who lends his aid and voice to ultra Radicalism, is an enemy to his country and a traitor to his race and color. SOUTHERN ELECTIONS.NORTH. The Radical press of the North express much dis-satisfaction at the result of the elections in Alabama, Louisiana and Virginia. They see alearly that those States were all "carried for conventions; but the means by which they were carried are not to their taste. The little tricks practised by officials have recoiled upon themselves, the fact beiug patent that high-handed fraud has accomplished all that has yet been done. Instead of gaining popularity with their party, these gentlemen find themselves much below par in the estimation of the people; for, with all its faults, the American nation loves fair play. Nothing can so injure a party in this country, as a manifest cheating at the | ballot box. I Another source of disappointment to Northern Radicals is the disovery that the whites cither took no part in the election, or voted against conventions. They had been told that the popular sentiment of the South was in favor of the Congressional plan of reconstruction, which statement conveyed to them the idea that the whites favored it Instead of this, they find the ordering of conventions to be almost exclusively the work of the negroes, over the opposition of the whites, and they don t like it. The whole programme of reconstruction, as hitherto developed, has assumed the form of negro supremacy. This unsuspected result has set Northern Radicals to thinking, and it will inevitably lead many of them to the conclusion that, if they wish to keep themselves free from this yoke, they must begin to oppose it at once. THE GEORGIA ELECTION. The election for or against a Convention was held in Georgia on the last three days in October. From the returns thus far received, it is evident that the white people kept away from the polls with remarkable unanimity. The ceremony of voting was performed almost entirely by the negroes and the few whites who favored a convention; so » that the verdict of the ballot box will certainly be for a convention, by a very heavy majority. But this will by no means settle the question; for unless the votes polled are a majority of those regis tered, there can be no convention. It is still exi tremely doubtful whether or not a majority of the registered voters have voted. The registry lists exhibit a majority of only 2000 whites, and if the negroes have voted their full strength as registered, the convention is secured; for there were probably over 2000 white votes polled. But it is charged that the negro vote is far short of the registry, many having registered two or three times, who could not vote but once, and others having failed to vote at all. Gen. Pope evidently thinks the result doubtful at least, as he has, by his own authority, ordered 1 an extension of two days for the time of voting. There can be no other reason for this extension; [ for every additional vote, whether for or against it, I adds to the probabilities of its success. The people had thirty days' notice of the election, and ii | they neglected to vote, it was because they did not choose to do so. The two days' subsequent voting I is contrary to the Reconstruction law; for General , Pope gave only one day's notice of it, and thai I only to places in telegraph or railroad communica! tion with his headquarters, as it was impossible * for the order to reach other places in time to be acted ! on. . 1 But if it shall turn out that this extension has , enabled the election managers to manufacture votes enough to secure a convention, its illegality will j. probably be disregarded. Other violations of the law were practised. In Augusta, the managers . received votes without looking at their lists to se( 1 whether the would be voters had been registered, * and the Chronicle and Sentinel asserts that manj negroes were brought from this State expessly to * vote, who could not have voted if the registry lisfc 2 had been examined. , The result of the election cannot be known foi some days. One thing, however, has been do 2 inonstratcd. The white people of Georgia, wlic - constitute the majority of its voters, are opposed to * a convention. If a convention be held it will b( 3 in response to the will of a minority, aud that mi nority the most ignorant population of the State SECESSION TO BE TRIED, i. The New York 2'imes (Radical) appears to b< e conscience-stricken on contemplating the approach K ing trial of Ex-President Davis. It comes out ir 3 a long article, regretting that the government ha; not been able to devise some means of preventini £ if The frijil of Mr Davts. in the oninion of this ' Radical organ, will be the trial of the rebellion : and the very act of giving it a trial, implies tha . that "horrible crime" may not be a crime after all r In all cases that come before courts of justice, th< e law presumes the prisoner to be innocent, until hi is convicted. Mr.'Davis and all other rebels must r therefore, be presumed innocent until proved guil 0 ty before a court of justice. That they waged wa !- against the United States, is not denied. Bu that this war was wrong, is the charge that mus ,t be decided by the court which tries Mr. Davis i- The Times, in common with all its party and man; K others in the North, have decided this question ii their own minds, and they are unwilling to have i g disputed, much less discussed before the law. T< 3 deny or doubt the guilt of "rebels" is itself a crime d with them. r On the other hand, the South has ever challen I. ged this trial. Her people have always been wil ling to have their action in seceding brought be 1 fore a national court and decided by the constitu tion. They believe they had the right to secede , that right was discussed for years before they a . vailed themselVes of it, and it had never been de nied by a constitutional authority. Yet in the fact of all this, the Northern people took it upon themselves, without a trial or the form of one, to pronounce secession rebellion and the greatest oi crimes. The appeal to arms decided that the South was not strong enough to maintain the right, and it has consequently become void. It did not fix upon the South any crime in seceding, for the reason that neither the constitution nor the Supreme Court had pronounced Secession a crime before the war. The Timet, however, says that the war decided the criminality of Secession, and that the trial o! Mr. Davis will detract from, and not confirm , that decision. It says: "The forthcoming trial is veiy likely to do ui damage and discredit We see no way in whict it can possibly do us good. If Davis should b< convicted, he will not be punished: no one believe.' for a moment that he will be either executed oi imprisoned. His conviction would not deepen the impression of the guilt of the rebellion on the pub lie mind in the least degree; indeed, the fact thai '< its guilt is allowed to be solemnly called in ques' tion will infallibly weaken the public sense of it enormity, and cause it to be regarded as a subject on which opinions may justly differ. If he shoulc be acquitted, as he may bet the conseauenoee, es pccially on public sentiment in the Southern States would be still more injurious. And consideri ng th< onrl milibrA of the nreaidinar Districi Judge, (Underwood), the mode of constituting the i'uiy and the prevailing temper of the parties who lave control of the whole prooeeding, there is rea son to fear that steps may be taken to procure i conviction, which will reflect more lasting disgrace and inflict deeper injury on our whole poutical sys tern than even an aoquital would involve." There is another point which shakes the nerve.* of the TWsraan. Mr. Davis may, and probeblj will, be acquitted, and what then ? His goading conscience urges him to the following oonfesfion : "If Davis has not been guilty of treason.if secession was a right.whatlias been the history oi this nation for the last six years, but the most awful and tremendous reveliy of crime the Bun evei shone upon ? If he is tried, he may be acquitted. Unless the trial becomes itself a greater crime thar the alleged offence.unless what pretends to be £ solemn appeal to absolute and supreme abstracl justice, is turned into a paltry ana contemptible trick.we are bound to admit that this man mat, go forth from the bar relieved of all stain of guilt, carrying the sanction of the judical tribunals oi the nation, for the whole tremendous transaction ol which he was the recognized and responsible bead." AGRICULTURAL NEWS. . The use of lime as a fertilizer is on the increase in the South. A correspondent of the Raleigh Sentinel states that a lime kiln is in operation in Catawba county, N. C., which bums twc hundred tons of lime per month, the greater part of which is sold, and the demand is increasing. There is an almost inexhaustible suppy of limestone in that county. . Letters from Florida, to merchants in Charleston, predict that there will not be more then five thousand bales of long cotton shipped from that State this year; also that there will not be a third of a crop made in the State. x . The Arkansas Gazette of the 19th ultimo says: "This year's experience will be sufficient to convince the firmest friends of cotton culture that it must be abandoned at once, or our planting com ' t i xL.j munity will be bankrupted, vv e unuersianu mai planters in this vicinity are now paying one dollai per hundred, for picking cotton. This is equivalent to three and a half cents a pound for lint cotton, and to this add the tax, and one half the value of a pound of cotton in this market is consumed. Now is the time for sowing wheat, and we trust a large crop will be put in this year. Planters are under no obligations to ruin themselves by planting cotton, merely to furnish employment to lazy, capricious negroes. Wheat is worth $250 pei bushel in the Western markets. At this price it£ production would be profitable on any soil in the State." . A correspondent of the Charleston Mercury proposes the formation of one or more joint stock companies, for the purpose of cultivating the rice lands on the Ashepoo river. He estimates the lands at five thousand acres, worth on an average. $50 per acre. The plan proposed is to form e company with $500,000 capital, with shares a1 $100, one half payable in money, and half in land. The crop produced by the company, it if estimated, will be 150,000 bushels ; which, wit! the diminished expenses of cultivation caused bj working on a large scale, will yield a profit of tor per cent on the capital of the company. . It is estimated that 600,000 pounds of beet sugar will be made in Illinois the present season, from the product of 600 acres. MERE-MENTION.

He occupied r the same position in Louisiana, but swindled the 3 negroes to such an extent as to cause them to pe; tition for his removal. In personal appearance he t is represented as hideously ugly.theoretically, praotically, decidedly ugly. We are told that he 3 looks like a cross between a gorilla and a Spanish t pack saddle. His head looms up like a pyramid 1 of jeDy, or a sugar loaft and is so sharp on top that - it serves as a horn, with which he can bore his , way into his neighbor's corn crib or ben roost.. 3 His face looks like a shriveled pumpkin or a "green t gourd Under the place where the Forehead ought 3 to be, he has two little foxy eyes, which twinkle > and dance till they rest upon a greenback, when they become as fixed and rigid as the eyes of an i Egyptian mummy. In the centre of the face. 3 there sticks out a something that looks like a foul - India-rubber pipe stem, dripping with ambier. which some peopte;call a nose. The mouth would ) do credit to a cat-fish, ''flakes of flesh hang down , around it, like thosfc on the jole of a fat mastiff".. r The chin comes down like the little end of an egg, ' and is fortunately covered with hair.

C., who recently came out against a convention, in a letter which ; was extensively published by the North Carolina [ press, has written a second letter on this question, which we think too good to keep from our readers. Hillsboro', Oct 25, 1867. J. A. Engelhard, Esq., Hear Sir: Yours of ; the 21st inst, found me from home. I have now read the editorial it contains, and am of opinion you givo the proper interpretation to the act of [ Congress in regard to the call of a Convention, and concur in your suggestion, that opposition to the call may be as well, and perhaps more effectually expressed, by not voting on that question, than by a ballot in the negative: provided there is a general concurrence in .action of those opposed to extending tho right of "suffrage indiscriminately to the colored people. This being the only specific ! Object to be provided for by the proposed Conven tion, there arc two questions presented to the electors, namely: 1st. Whether the State of North Carolina shall retain the right to regulate the exercise of suffrage among her own population, as is the case in Ohio and all the States of the North, or shall have it regulated for her by these latter States, and in a ' manner different from the rules they adopt for themselves? 2d. Whether the vote of a white man in North , Carolina shall have the same weight hereafter as that of a white man in Ohio, Pennsylvania and oth1 er Northern States, or shall be neutralized and 1 made of no effect by that of the black man here, ; who is forbidden this privilege in other States ? * 1 The representatives of civilized England gained i an immortality for themselves by a negative answer l "Nolumus miLlare"1 (we are unwilling to adopt , the change proposed) on a question of far less gravity; nor do I read that it subjected their coun1 try to any additional penalties or inflictions. Congress has provided none except the continuance of t military government in our case, and the individ, uals who brandish threats over our heads in the event of non-compliance, have given no assurance of restoration of equality with themselves, if we nhmdnn our own iudements and conform to theirs. In such a condition, while we would gladly receive ' light and instruction from any source, we would act at last in theconclusions of our own understandings. While far removed from any temper of levity or . defiance, I cannot better illustrate my idea of the ! final consequences of a negative course in this great crisis than by this anecaote, with which, among many othera of English life, Mr. Webster used to entertain his friends after his visit to Europe. An 5 old member of the Commons was descanting to a > younger upon Parliamentary law, saj'ing "that in 5 the occurrence of any disturbance in the House it . was the duty of the Speaker to call to order, and if it continued, to repeat the call in louder and more 1 emphatic tones; but lfthis failed of effect and the dis order was persisted in, the Sneaker should direct the f Sergeant-at-Arms to take tne mace, the emblem of the authority and dignity of the House, wliich is 1 always placed on the right of the chair when the House is in session, and holding it in both his } hands, to go down upon the floor and display it among the unrulv-meihbers." And here he paused. - .But, inquired tne jtmior, "suppose they do not 1 come to order then, what is to be done?" "Well," j replied the senior, "well, the Lord knows, there is nothing said about it in the Law of Parliament" To the same omniscient source, within whose knowledge is the final sanction for disorderly Parliaments, 2 let us refer for those pains and penalties that, in the - imagination of many, await a long suffering and - loyal people, struggling for State existence by the j only means in their power.the ballot.giving theii votes according to their convictions of duty. With much respect, 3 I am your obedient servant, a W. A. Graham. 1 a EUROPE DONE UP IN BRIEF.

FUBBITUEE AT AUOTIOH. An opportunity will be offered at Limestone Springs, on Thursday, the 21st of November, to persons in need of furniture and other family effects, of supplying their wants without the expense and risk of Qrdering from a distance. The furniture has been well kept, and embraces some fine articles of rosewood, mahogany and walnut, besides the plainer materials, thus offering an excellent opportunity for making selections. We call attention to the advertisement in another column. A50THEB LARGE POTATO. Mr. Thomas Koach, of Blairsville, has come up to the soratch in the potato line, and left with us a sweet potato weighing four and a half pounds. Can't some person bring as a larger one?

We are reliably informed that a meeting of the Union Republican party of York District, without regard to color or previous condition, was held in the Zion Church in this place, on Tuesday evening last, for the purpose of nominating candidates to represent the interests of the party in the Constitutional Convention. The following nominations were made: W. E. ROSE, Esq., Dr. J. L. NEAGLE, JOHN W. MEADE, (colored,) J. H. WHITE, (colored). ^ » SHERIFF'S SALES. "" Our readers are greeted this week with an unu-1 sually long list of Sheriff's Sales. All of the property offered Ls for the non-payment of taxes, and the startling length of the advertisements now published, is due to the leniency of the Sheriff, who has given the delinquents all the indulgenoe allowed him by the law. Now, however, the time of this indulgence is nearly at an end. He has been required, by the Comptroller General of the State, to collect all taxes due the State by the 30th of this month. If the taxes are not paid by that time, the lands levied on must be sold on the first Monday in next month. Parties interested will, therefore, find it to their advantage to pay their taxes during this month, as they will, by so doing, save themselves some costs. ^ PUBLIC MEETING. A meeting of a portion of the white citizens of York District, was held at the Court House, in Vni-lrvillft. nnMnndav last. Col. R. G. McCaW Was called to the Chair, and J.

The business of politics is brightening up and that smartly, of late. j The Radical or Negro Party have nominated their candidates for the Constitutional Conven- | . . ttt -r» i \Ti.i n r tion. Idese candidates are vv. ueveny nasn, sj. q M. Wilder, T. J. Robertson, and S. B. Thompson. C We have made frequent mention of Nash. He is a negro, intelligent, partially educated, ambitious, c and a demagogue. He has been in favor and out & of favor several times within the last two years; and has been on both sides of nearly every great | question before our people. C. M. Wilder is a e mulatto, of fine features, intelligent, and eminently £ gentlemanly in his bearing, and as well educated as £ any of his race. He is a carpenter by trade, and c stands well in the community. T. J. Robertson is * a . white man. S. B. Thompson is a mulatto carpenter of the better class, and bore a good character before he entered the arena of politics; and it is to , be hoped that he will not suffer as much as usual i from that contamination. All four of these. and : they make a good team.are thoroughly radical, and will doubtless be true to their party or c league oaths, which made them tools in the hands of the Radical Leaders in the 'North. These delegates we assume will be elected, and will assist in A making a new Constitution for South Carolina. £ We have already expressed our opinion of that f constitution . that it will be an agent of destruction £ U>t\xe negro raoe. They are no doubt willing to ^ make the experiment; and so, in their day of sorrow, they can point bloody fingers at none other £ than themselves. A counter movement is on foot however. The £ Conservatives have taken steps.rather late in the I day, it strikes us.to have a Convention in the * interests of the white citizens of South Carolina, c to be held on the 6th instant It is to be not a C Convention proper,' but a meeting of delegates ^ from all parts of the State, to do all that can be i done in the premises: . to write an address to our people; to memorialize Congress; and to organize to prevent, if possible, the negro-ocracy that is a- c bout to be forced upon us. This movement ema- \ nates from men of position, ability, and character; and good may oome of it It is the part of true < philosophy at least to hope. . nil Trr n/MTTAlr ^ AAAAVAAO UX XLUXIVXXVJI.

House on Thurs- c day, before nis Honor Judge Dawk ins. The State ° was represented by the Solicitor, Horn J. P. Reed; <3 the prisoners by Generals McGowan and Easely, Messrs. Norton and Adams. The evidence ana 8 arguments occupied two days, and the jury, after c an absence of half an hour, brought in a verdict t of guilty with referenoe to December Gadsden, 3 Nat. Frazier, John Keith, Jack Walker, Green 1 Cleveland, Jr., and Jackson Henderson.all col- , ored. Not guilty with reference to Alexander 8 Bryce, .white man, and Captain Deane, Bob Breck- j inndge and Mark Adams, colored. r The testimony of the President of the Union F League proved that all of the parties named constituted the guard sent out to arrest Bob Smith, ? the white man who had fired a pistol in the neigh- ^ borhood of the League; that a portion of this I guard were armed with guns and pistols, and un- d aer.the direction of Jackson Hendereon as Sergeant; that December Gadsden, the Vice Presi- f dent of the League, from the description of his £ size and his beanng on the occasion, was the one t who fired the fatal shot which took the life of ^ young Hunnicutt, the others being accessory to c the crime. It also appeared in eviaenoe given by both white and black, that the negroes used the c most violent threats and language, imprisoned the 1 white men present, in the Aoademy, and evinced a jj desire to prolong the disturbance and resort to a arms. t The ease was ably presented to the jury on the \ Sart of the State, and Generals Easley and Mc- * owan defended the prisoners with more than usual eloquence and power. The judge charged * the jury on the law cfearly, and both law and fact [ were then submitted to their consideration, with s the result above stated. ; i The sentence of the court was that the parties 1 convicted should be executed at Pickens on the I 6th .of December next ^ 7 , * On Saturday the negroes indicted for riot on j the 13th of October, the dav following the murder, \ together with Alexander Bryce, white man, were ] tried.the same counsel, with the addition of Jas. ] H; Whitner, Esq., representing the parties.
