The New Orleans Jlepublican of the 23d

pension of removals by General Mower on
orders from Washington, it uses the follow
ing language: "The day will come, nd
perhaps it may be a bloody one, when the
loyal people of Louisiana will hold the
authors of this interference in the progress
of reconstruction to a strict account. The
war of the rebellion is not yet over; the
Sfntpq nf tlipRonth nre not vet reconstructed:
the Grand Army of the Republic doubles 1
in numbers the old Urand Army of the ro
tomac ; tried soldiire with dusky faces still
love the old profession and cherish the old
muskets they carried so bravely on many a
well-fought field. The lowly and humble
have learned theirrights and know how to
fight, and, if needs be, to die for them. No
power save that of the Almighty God can
keep the loyal people, in the end, from
achieving their own liberty, and trampling
to the dust the minions of the old and still
dominant slave power." The same article
calls Andrew Johnson "Ihat arch traitor
and assassin."
The Washington correspondent of the

Republicans and time-serving Conserva
tives arc. alike alarpcd, and both arc mov
ing every possible influence to prevent the
issue being made. If the majority of that
committee hold to their pnrpoec there will
be lively trasin?ss. The President, when,
interrogated, to-day, as to what would be
his course in the event of impeachment,
replied that he would " do his duty," and
although his answer is not satisfactory and
his'inaction cannot inspircbonfidence, yet
U i professed that he will rise with the
emergency, and by intrepid action strength

enemies of the country. There is great
excitement in political and financial
circles to-day, in consequence of these re

L". THE XETUUSr Of GOV. UARRIS.
Kx-Gov. iBhuin G. Harris tailed from
J-iivcrpool on the 6th inst, ,and after a
somewhat tedious but 'tsafeJrip reached
this city at one o'clock bn Sunday morn
irig,24th, and left trie same afternoon for
the present residence of his family in
Uenry county. The announcement of
his return, after an absence of several
wost eventful years, will be received
wi th.u uu flee tedigratification , by. thousands -of
the people of Tennessee, whose confi
dence he enjoyed while in prosperity, and
whose sympathies were not withheld
from him in the day of his exile. We
believe, too, that many of those who have
been always politically opposed to him
will experience a genuine sense of satis
faction At his return, and mark it as an
other evidence of the pradual decay of
Slhe spirit of passion and hostility which
prevailed so strongly in the breasts of
men during the war, and to an undue ex
tent even sincp its close. We did not
have the pleasure of meeting and greeti
ng Gov. Harris. But we assume to say
that he returns to his native State and to
th people who have so often placed him
in their leadership, not to mingle in
public affairs, but ro resume his position
as an American citizen, in the ranks of
American society, and to pursno hiu
vocation with diligence and quietude,
with malice towards none, and with a.
sincere dedirc for the prosperity and
glory of Tennessee and of the entire
country. nisTortune shattered, but his
health good and .physical constitution
still strong, he may yet retrieve the one,
and in the continuance of the others
present the splendid example of a patri
otic, intelligent, energetic and virtuous
citizen. May" he live long, peacefully
jnnd prosperously.
" During his brief stay in the city, he
called upon Gov. Brownlow at the cap-
itol, and was receive with everymark of
courtesy. The interview vroa Bhort, and
had reference to no political topics, "but
was confined to remarks upon the coun
tries visited by the ex-Governor and other
casual matters. S8me reference haying
been made to the possible arrest of Gov.
Harris, Gov. Brownlow observed that he
was in his care, and that he would be
responsible for him until the spring, or
words to that effect The manner of his
reception by Gov. Brownlow was emi
nently gratifying to his many friends in
this city.
To the immodiato family and personal
friends of Gov. Harris we offer our
hoarty congratulations, and trust that
circumstances may never again enforce
a separation so protracted and so dis
ngreeabie. TITF. I. ATE ELECTIONS.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
The Charleston Courier of tho22d inst
has returns from thirteen districts in
South Crrolina, in which 134 whites and
9741 blacks vbted, 9779 for and 9G against
a convention. The Courier says : " This
statement is, of course, only partial, but
it represents very fairly tho sentiment of
the people of this State, as the figures arc
collated from returns of nearly one-half
of tho districts. It will be seen that the
proportion of persons who voted was one
while to seventy-two blacks, and that
more than two-thirds of the few whites
who participated at all voted against a
convention. The facts are too significant
to require comment" In Charleston five
negroes and four white men wero elected
delegates to the convention.
MISSISSIPPI.
Tho Meridian Oazette gives official re
turns from twenty counties of Mississippi,
comprising nearly one-half the total
registered vote of the State. The num
ber of registered voters in these counties
was 50,103. The number of votes polled
is 28,937, making 88 more than one-half.
It is now generally conceded that the
State has decided in favor of a conven
tion, though tho majority will be small.
ARKANSAS,
Tho Momphis Post has returns from
twelve counties in Arkansas, which gave
4093 for tfnd 1721 ugainst a convention.
The registered votejof these twelve coun
ties was 10,823. The Post ptates that five
other counties, from which it has reports,
gave a majority of about 700 for a con
vention, and that Saline county gave a
majority of 261 against a convention.
NEW YOP.E.
Tho Albany Argus publishes official
roturns from all thecountiesin New York,
which give tho Democratic State ticket
378,880 votes, and the Radical ticket
324,017, showing a majority for the Dem
ocratcs of 49,809. The Democratic ma
jority in New York city and Brooklyn is
7fi,2S5. The Argus says :
The afrRregate vote in the State is 097.-
908. This is much the largest vote ever
cast when the election of a Governor or
President wbh not involved.
In 1805, when Slocum and Barlow were
candidates for Secretary of State, Slocum
received 272,703 votes, and Barlow 800,254
votes ; Barlow's majority, 27,491.
The comparison of this year's vote
should be made with that of 1805, when
the election was for the same class of State
officers.
It will therefore be seen that the in
creased Democratic vote over 1805 is 101,
120 1 The increase of the Radical vote over
1805 is 24,703.
Comparing the vote of 1867 with the
vote of I860, when Hoffman add Fenton
were candidates for Governor, and we have
a Democratic gain of 21,300; Radical loss
42.29S; net Democratic gain over I860,
03,068.
The largest vote ever polled in this State
was in 1EG4, when McClellan and Lincoln
were candidates for President The aggre
gate vote that year was 730,712. McClel
lan received 301,930, and Lincoln received
305,720. This -was not only the largest
vote ever cast, but each party showed
greater strength than had ever before been
exhibited. Thus it will be seen that the
Radical vote reached its height in 1804.
The Democratic vote this year is 5103
greater than the Radical vote of 1S64, and
is the largest vote ever polled by any po
litical party in this State
These figures demonstrate the substan
tial character of the Tictory achieved by
tho Democracy I The State is Democratic
to the core. The people have spoken in
the most emphatic language, and they will
repeat the verdict for a Democratic Presi
dent in 1S031
Gek. Mower issued the following order

Bond'Holder. Good' mornings Mr, Taxi
JPayer.' I called tojsee you about the reng
for next year.
Tax Payer. Well, what about it?
B. H. What will you charge me for the
house next year?
T. P. I suppose I must let you haye it for
the same you paid this year.
BfHI am. astonished J- I-expectedoa.
reduction of at least twenty per cent. Times
are very hard, and everybody is coming
down in rents.
T. P. Times are very hard I admit, so
hard that I find it very difficult to pay my
taxes.
B. IL Why your property is valuable
and you have a large rent roll.
T. P. The house you rent from me is as
sessed to be worth $15,000, and the State,
county and corporation taxes, including
taxes for railroads, and schools, and stamp.,
and United States income tax, and insu
rance, to say nothing abont repairs, or wear
and tear, amounts to $419 80. Yon pay
me 900 rent; this leaves me 580 14:
this is 3 80-100 per cent, on the assessed
value of the house.
B. H. Yes, but there is the probable in
creased value of your property ; 8rid,
another thing, you would not take fifteen
thousand dollars for it.
T. P. Well, suppose I could get twenty
thousand dollars cash, for it, and suppose
you value it at that, the above calculation
would only make it yield me 2 90 100 per
cent.
B. H, Well, I cannot help it; renU are
coming down, and I must do the best lean
for myself.
T.P. I believe your means are invested
in United States bonds, are they not ?
B. H. Yes, I have a few of them.
T.P. Have you any other property, or
do you own anything on which yoir pay
taxes?
B. II. I pay an income tax.
T. P. Do you pay any taxes to theState,
county or. corporation, or for schools or
railroads?... - . - -.-ia.-)'
(B, H. Not one cent.
T. P. Do any of your children attend
the free schools ?
B. H. Yes, my three boys go to the pub
lic schools.
T. P.' On twenty thousand dollars of your
United States bonds you receive twelve
hundred dollars a year in gold, which, at
forty cents premium, makes $1030 interest
per annum you eet on your twenty thou'
sand dollars, on $1080 of which you pay
an income tax of $54, leaving yon with
S1C20 a year, or 8 13100 per cent.
B. H. Well, why don't you do like I do,
sell your property and invest the money
in Uncle Sam s bonds?
T. P. Suppose everybody adopts your
plan, who would own houses?
B. H. That's not my look out every1
man must take care of himself. I am not
to blame for your property being taxed
I neither made the public debt nor passed
the law exempting it from taxation.
T. P. I am not complaining that my
property is taxed ; what I do complain at
is unequal taxation. I contend that it 13
contrary to the spirit of a free gov
ernment to tax one portion of the
people for the support of the other,
and I contend that the public debt
ought to be paid off in greenbacks, which
would put a stop to tins everlasting tax
ation that is making the bond-holder
richer, and the tax-payer poorer every
day.
B. H. You seem to be wandering from
the subject. I called to see you about the
rent. 1 suppose you think as houses are
scarce you will be able to maintain these
high rents.
T. P. I think I haveshown you that even
what you call high rents, property-owners
are getting a very poor rate of interest on
their investments. If houses are scarce,
why don't yon and other rich bond-hold
ers sell your bonds and build houses if I
have shown that the price you call hich
which I am charging you for my house is
nearly all taken lrom me in taxes, while
yon pay none why don't you remedy the
evil by building, thereby increasing the
number ol houses, and consequently lower
inc rents? When the bonds are nil nnld
off and the money invested in houses and
manufactories and other entepnses. stim
ulating the industry and developing the
resources of the country, you will hear no
more complaints about high rents, hard
times and scarcity ot money
B. H. Your argument proves then that
I should invest my money in something
that would yield me a less interest than I
now get. What advantage will I derive
by that course?
T. P. The oppressive load of taxation
now on the country to pay interest on the
bonds, and salaries of Revenue Collectors
will be taken off; your property will vise
in value; there will be a demand for
houses ; business' will be revived, and you
and all other bond-holders will be lm
mensely benefitted directly and indirectly
by living in a tree, happy and prosperous
country, blessed with more natural ad
vantages than any portion of the habitable
globe.
B. H. I must confess this is a very pleas
ing picture; something is wrong now
trade is dull ; agricultural pursuits are
languishing; manufactures are stopping;
money is scarce : people are disheartened.
T. P. There is but one remedy, the national
debt must be paid, and it must be paid in
greenbacks, and the taxes must be stopped
belore the substance ot the nation is con
snmed. Vindex.
A STARTLING EVENT.
Armed Negroes March Into Columbus,

nrmetl hy United States Troops.
From the Memphis Avalanche, Nor. 23.
For some time a great deal of dissatis
faction lias existed among the freedmen in
the neighborhood of Columbus. Mississinoi.
They had quit work, and left the fields
white with cotton, and would not pluck a
boll, the reason given for such action being
that their share of the crop would not pay
their expenses for the year, owing to the
tax on the staple, and the low price to
which it had lallen. As soon as they re
fused to work, as a matter of course, they
had to leave the plantations, and give up
their houses to other laborers who would
work. They then took to the woods, and
commenced a system of indiscriminate
pilfering and stock killing. About two
hundred of them have been assembled in
the neighborhood of Columbus, Mississippi.
since the beginning oi ine election, ana
had become a perfect nuisance and terror
to the neighborhood. At the request of the
citizens a company of United States troops
had been stationed at Columbia for the
protection of the lives and property of fhe
people. When this band of vagabondized
negroes had exhausted the country of every
thing which was stealable, they determined
to make a raid npon the town of Colpmbus
in full force. They were all armed, and
procuring a fife and drum, they
marched into the town, demanding
bread. Not one of them asked for work;
they did pot want that Bread was all
their cry, and they were about commencing
an indiscriminate robbery, when tbeUnited
States troops appeard on the ground and
disarmed them first, and then dispersed
them. The ringleaders were taken into
custody. What a scene of bloodshed and
robbery we would have had to relate, had
it not been for the fortunate presence of
tho troops, we shudder to think of. This
is the first attempt at a bread riot which
has eye? occurred in the South, but how
lone it will be until they become common.
it takes no far-secinc nrophct to tell. The
negroes all through the country are becom
ing most thoroughly demoralized under the
teachings of the Radical hyenas, who coun
scl and incite them at every fence corner,
m J I. ? J . rri
'u men uwu uehiruciion. xney now posi
tively, in many localities, refuse to work
will make no contracts with the planters
fully expecting the division of lands so
long promised them by their Radical lead
ers. Bands of from three to fifty are roam- i
ing through Mississippi in every direction,
a terror and a nuisance, not only to plant
ers, but to the industrious of their own
color, How long this state of afiairacan
continue without scenes of riof and blood-
shed, depends entirely upon the forbearance
of the white man. A ipark may ignite ,
the train which will redden the horizon with
the blare of burning houses, and initiate a
conflict between ilhe races blodijy and re
morseless. '
' . STAT.XEW5.,
The Jackson, Tenn., IVhig gives an ac
count of the outrages of a gangof highway
men, operating in Madison county for the
past twtjfweeks, whose deeds rival those of
"Murrell anhiaigang" many yeanfago.
They first entereo'the houslf of a colored :
man, with cocked pistols, and took every
thing of value they could find. A night or
two afterwards they made a raid on another
colored man's house with like results. A
few nights afterwards they took the road,
and a few miles from Jackson, intercepted
Jarmer who., was returning.home. .after
selling his cotton, and robbed him of all
proceeds about $000 cash.- The flame
night they visited the residence of Mr.
Glass, a leading merchant of Jackson, about
three and a half miles" from town, and
having secured Mr. Glass and another gen
tleman who was at the house, pillaged the
premises of everything that was Valuable
and portable. They next visited some
negro houses a short distance off, and
plundered them. These acts have intense
ly excited the communify. As to the per
petrators, the WhigBnyB:
" While operating at the cabins the out
laws seemed to have thrown off their dis
guise, and the negroes thought they, de
tected in the appearance of the robbers
their visitors of the day before, namely,
four men dressed in military, whosaid they
belonged to the troops stationed at Jack
son. Their suspicions were changed
to convictions when they heard
the robbers ask the same questions,
and several of them, that had been pro
pounded by their military visitors. We
learn that Capt. Hall, commanding the
militia in this place, proposes to assist the
civil anthoritiei in their efforts to discover
the robbers, and that he Laamnruuu)
opinion that he will.be able to find them
out."
The courthouse in the town of Ripley,
Lauderdale county, was destroyed by fire
one day last week. The loss to the county
is considerable, as several thousand dollars
had been expended since the war, in re
pairs. Fortunately, all the. valuable pub
lic documents, legal records, etc, were
saved. The fire originated from a de
'fective stove-pipe.
. A highwayman named, Frank Jones was
arrested and hung, near Wythe Depot in
Shelby county, on Sunday of last week.
The Somerville Falcon 'says: "On that day
he came to 6ome gentlemen at Union Depot,
and stated to them that he had been robbed
in the woods. Among the gentlemen to
whom he was telling his story was Mr.
Battle, the same who had been Bhot at and
wounded from the roadside. It happened
that Mr. B. had observed that a couple of
fingers were missing from the hand of the
villian who had shot at and pursued bim,
and noticing that the same was the case
with the strange individual who was telling
his story, a closer look satisfied him that he
'Was the same manj and in a moment he was
'a prisoner. He confessed that he was the
man who had shot at Mr. also that it
was he who had caused Mr. G. to' strip, and
.sent the threatening letter. A short time
thereafter he disappeared from the station,
and when next seen his lifeless body was
dangling from a tree in the swamps.-"
The Falcon gives the following sin
nular facts as to the application of the law
making rebellion a good ground for chal
lenging a juror. Ihe case was against
Clark for the murder of Jones. The ac
cused was a Confederate soldier, and the
deceased a Union man, and the case had
excited general interest. The Falcon says
" In makings up the jury the counsel on
both sides took advantage of the recent
act making the fact of a party not being
registered voter a ground for rejection. It
is understood that neither side objected to
a non-voting juror, as such, but only took
advantage of the law in order to rid them'
selves of parties otherwise objectionable to
them, the State taking the initiative in the
matter. The jury as constituted, however,
is not composed of registered voters, only
two of them, we understand, belonging to
that lavored class."
The Fayetteville Ifeics says there never
was half as much stealing as is now going
on in Lincoln county. We bear daily on
all sides, of stealing horses, mules, hogs,
bacon, corn and many other things of less"
importance.
The Tullahoma Apalachian says that
town is finished. It doesn't need any im
provement. It u in a state of buss. That
paper gives the following as a list of im
ports and exports for .the first eleven months
of 18C7 : Exports 4 bushels chestnuts ; 30
cross-ties: 9 gallons huckleberries; 3
quarts hazle-nuts ; 2 home-made brooms ;
1 barrel whisky; 2 sets country-made
chairs. Imports 2 pecks of goobers and 4
dozen peaches. Tullahoma is happy.
The McMinnville Enterprise Rays : "As
ihe corn crop is being gathered in by our
farmers, we learn it is turning out much
better than was expected. One ot our
merchants has filled a contract for 1000
bushels at fifty cents per bushel ; and we
understand a decline in price is antici
pafed.
The Cincinnati Commercial says, edito-i
rially :
" GeneralButler'spopularity in theSouth
is so great that the owner of the new steam
boat, Uovernor Allen, Uapt. John wmou-er,
intended for the Red River trade, and
which is now fitting out at the port of Lou
isville, have thought it expedient in pro
riding the ladies state rooms with an ar
ticle of furniture that formed an essential
part of the nitre bureau, of the Confederate
Ordnance Department, to have its interior
delicately embellished with a portrait of the
General in the uniform of an officer of his
rank in the army of the United States. It
must be accepted as evidence of the pro
gressive spirit of reconstruction, that South
ern ladies should evince so profound an at
tachment for a General they soundly abused
during the war, that they cannot bear to be
deprived of his portrait, even in their mo
ments of deepest seclusion."
A young fellow in Berlin made a bet the
other day that he would kiss twenty-five
women on the public promenade in the
