Tub Philadelphia Bulletin slanders the South in the following editorial: " The intention of the Southerners who 0 re attempting, by committing outrages upon the blscts, to stir them npto resis tance, is to manufacture some ground for talk about a war of races and to cause a general political movement among the whites for the purpose of ob taining the supremacy, and of deterring Congress frem passing the civil rights bill. But from the character of some of the stories that come from the South the most likely result of these infamies is the re enactment of the Eu-Elux laws. There appears to be throughout the South a common purpose to begin again the crimes which made those laws neces sary in the first place; and the organiza tion of the White League is one of the indications of the existence of the pur pose." The Bulletin is one of those Northern fanatical journals which, ow ing to its hatred of the South, gives cir cnlation to such falsehoods as are con tained in every line of the above. Thk Vicksburg Herald theatrical critic gets up the following: An old play with a new cast: ."Othel lo," Theodore Tilton; "Iaeo," Frank Moulton; " Cassio," Henry Ward Beech er; "Desdemona," Elizabeth Tilton; guards, citizens, supernumeraries, etc., Ben Butler, Victoria Woodhull and mem bers el the compary.

Goverkob Baowv has been requested by the Executive Committee of the Na tional Convention, held in Cincinnati October, lfcTO, to appoint a delegation of thirty-three citizens of Tennessee to attend a convention to be held in Louis ville on the 22d of October next, for the purpose of considering the expediency of removing the Federal Capital to the West. This, it will be remembered, is the pet project of one L, U. Reav is, who is knows as the "capital mover," and fancies that St. Louis will boast of a population of fifty millions, more or leas, within the next half century. If the capital i3 to be removed we vote for Memphis as the site. I" all the legitimate demands of the Democratic and Conservative party, or of the great interests of the' general public, or of Memphis in particular, the Lidgik will not fail to do its duty, but where mere individual schemes or inter ests are to be promoted, it will be done as advertising, and at the regular rates.

Thi statement of "Bessie" that sh discovered that antiquated vestal, Susan B. Anthony, sitting on Tilton's lap, is mot believed by those who know Susan's ace and style. Were the positions of the parties reversed the old lady might take the boy Theodore on her lap, and bit could eoaeole himself with the poeti cal idea that be was sitting in the "lap cf ages.'-' The Daily Blue Grass Derringer, al lodia to the reeent election in Ken tacky, says: "There were but ten men killed through the entire State, and the election passed off wilhont any disturb ance." IIiLf the counties of Arkansas have 'Instructed for Baxter" for Governor. This do Lot look as though there is mmj coolness between the Governor and Conservative friends. . i RIOT IN GIBSON COUNTY.

HaKd Men Enter the Town tula Morning and Carry Oft (be l'rlao nrri-l'onr Killed and Two Mor tally Wounded Before Leaving The Olbers Snppoaed to have been Hilled The Whiles Taking I)e tensive Steps. Nashville, August 26. The negroes at Pickettville, Gibson county, six miles from Humboldt, last Saturday or Sunday threatened' a riot on account of some supposed wrong done them, and mani fested a strong desire to kill two or three citizens and fire and sack the town. Yesterday sixteen of the ring leaders were arrested, taken to Trenton and placed in jail for safe keeping. About one o'clock this morning be tween fifty and one hundred masked men entered the town, rode up to the jail, demanded and compelled the Sheriff to deliver up the keys. They then took the sixteen negroes from the jail, and four were killed .and two mortally wounded at the edge of town. They then rode off with the other ten and are supposed to have killed them. Nothing has been heard from them since they left. There is considerable excitement among the negroes there, and the whites are taking defensive steps in case of any outbreak. KEW YORK. Death of John Oavllt Meeting of she Beecber Investigating torn- ml t tee. New York, August 2C John E. Gavitt, President of the American Bank Note Company, died yesterday at Stock bridge, Mass. A meeticg of the Beecber investigat ing committee was held last night. Two witnesses were examined, whose testi mony it was deemed advisable to take before closing. The committee meets Bgain tomorrow night, when, it is ex pected, their labors will close. No ar rangement was made during the session last evening to invite Moulton to come before the committee, nor is it likely that he will be requested to do so before the investigation concludes. A letter from Frank Carpenter characterizes the charges in Beecher's statement about him as utterly false. It is stated that Beecber goes on a lecturing tour in the fall. Indian Tumble. Fort Sill, August 25. Intelligence having been received at this post that Big Bed Foot, one of the principal hos tile Comancbe chiefs, is now absent from the reservation and on the war-path, and was at Wichita agency, where he had taken refuge with fifty of his band, Gen eral Davidson left here on Friday night with four companies of the Tenth cav alry, numbering about 200 men, to arrest the chief and his warriors. Big Red Foot and his band were found at the agency, as had been reported, and after some parley General Davidson ordered that they should be deprived of their arms While the disarming was going on, the Kiowas, nnder Lone Wolf and Woman's Heart, turned on the troops and fired on them. Immediately npon the discharge of their gens the Kiowas ran. The troops pursued, and a lively running fight began between the soldier and In dians. In the skirmish three soldiers were shot and many of the Indians were killed; how many is not known. Dur ing the fight the Comanche lodges and camp were burned. It also appears that further troubles are expected at the agency, as more troops have gone for ward from here. Since the receipt of news the Indians killed four citizens near the agency. LOUISIANA.

Auctions in different countries are curious subjects of study. In an auc tion in Spain, for instance, everything accords with the national temper. There is no noise. Conversation is prohibited The auctioneer is held to his description of goods. A bid is made; he of the hammer repeats it: silence follows 'another bid, another announcement of j .i i -ii : it, ana anoiuer snence an as senuuo and solemn as a prayer meeting, until the mallet falls. An auction room in France is, on the contrary, a perfect Babel. In ell noisy Paris there is nothing so noisy and boisterous as a St. Autoine vendor where earning and ch'ffoniers and ' old clo Jews contend for cheap bargains. There can be no ereater contrast to this hub bub than that which is presented by the dull decorum of an auction sale in Amsterdam or Rotterdam. There Mvnheer auctioneer sits behind a table smoking his pipe. He Btates terms of sale, waits for a bid, makes no baste, creates no excitement, watches no coun tenances, takes no nods or winks. Be fore him stands a box filled with tapers, If there is too long delay he lights one of these in silence, and thrusts it on a spindle fixed in the table. When it goes out the last Didder taues tne article. There is a curious old custom at Bil lingsgate the great and well known fish market in London of selling fish from the boats as they arrive every morning. bv an auction " of reduction," as it is called. Every boat load is sold alto gether. Twenty-five or thirty safes are " ... " ti. . ii .,). .,: " gOlflf; UII ttb UUUB. XUO IDUU1.UUN auction always occurs in the early morning, sometimes before light. Men end women indiscriminately act as auc tioneers and buyers, also men and wo men walk np and down the docks scruti nizing the cargoes. A bell rings and the sales commence. In a large, flat eondola are bloaters, owned by the strapping fisbwoman, who now begins to brawl to the buyers on shore as she stands on the bow, " Here's your blott ers, fine, large iarmouth bloaters; hve shillings a cattle! Five shillings I Well, four and tenpence be it then! Four and ten Four, and ten! tour and nine, then! Four and eieht!" " I'll take 'em, old woman, at four and eight," crjes a buyer from the landing place, and forthwith the boat load is bis. And so it goes for an hour, amid chafing and scolding, screaming and sweancg: " Mackerel, allibute. sole, salmon, cod, addock," shouted a hundred times all together; the boats nnlonded; porters struggling, boys and girls cnunling the "hunders" by themselves; fishmongers frnm the West Jind selecting: errana bovs running: fishwomen flouting each other, and everybody blowing up every body e se. until the great oen rings, which ends the auction hour and opens the morning market. A Ulster's Love. ' There is something inexpressibly touching in a sister's love. Her heart is a realm of pure and earthly affection, and happy Bhould that brother be to whom she clings through the changing scenes of the blighting world. She has been bis companion in childhood; she has watched the development of his mind and Derson: she bus admonished him when wrong and smiled upon his triumphs; she has peopled his mind with beautiful treasures ot ner own; sue has taucht him thoBe virtues which will render him a useful member of society, nrenare bim for death, and embalm his memory when he has passed away. Sooner can yon bind the free wind than seal up the springs of such mysterious affections. They will Jlow'on and the desert cave forget their progress-. And as sorrow and misfortunes strip from life its charms and dreams, there is one recollection that will come like music to brother s heart that will thrill upon its darkened and troubled depths with a atrance, vet sweet melodv. and bring up scenes of borne and childhood long un remembered. It is the recollection of a sister's love. A lady writer it is only ladies who ave the courage to do such things bva l.DLn .nmnnrincr thft New York and Boston belles at Saratoga.
