Editor Examiner and Patron : Deaii Sir ;—In replying to the Milam Messenger and Salado News-Letter, you say that you trust that he will not come down, as the above referred to journals advise" Ot course not, if we want cor-rupt men in Congress, 1 say send the most corrupt man in the District, and that is John Hancock. The Hon. John is using his salary grab and back pay steal to a good advantage; be can curse and damn the Texas press, and they will lick the dust from his boots and call it brains. The Fifth District is in rather a bad condition, as the Examiner infers— that lie is the only man in the District, that has brains enough to go to Congress. I think the Hon. John’s (God save the mark) gold dazzled the eyes of the Ex- AMiNEit, or he thinks the great toiling masses, are only a set of asses; he certain-ly does not recognize the fact, that the people of Texas know John Hancock to be a traitor to his country, and a betrayor of the people who have done him honor. Must have him. You may have him, boots and ail, so far as the people of this District are concerned. The honest men of this District won’t touch him with a forty foot pole. So take him and go, but not to Congress. The Patrons of this county will not vote for a man who stands convicted of stealing the peoples’ money. We send men to Huntsville, in this county, for taking other peoples’ money; but you say send them to Con-gress. Well, let us be consistent, and send those at Huntsville to Congress, and Hancock and his crowd to Huntsville. I think that the people would not be tlie loser by the exchange. They must have brain. I think a little less brain and a little more principle would bring things more on an equi-librium. \Vc have been represented, or rather misrepresented by. brain long enough. Now, let us lie represented by principle awhile. If that does no better, then we can fall back on brains again. I am rejoiced to know that there are a few journals that will not bow at the feet of John Hancock, and eat dirt. I will send for the Salado News Letter as soon as an opportunity oilers. I was on the eve of getting up a c.ub for the Examiner, but the people do not want a paper that fosters the worst demagogue and monopo-list in tlie State, so I expect it will fall through. Your Hon. John was nomi-nated by the corrupt money rings and monopolies of the District. The conven-tion was stocked, but the people will unpack it at the November election. What did Hancock do in Congress that the Examiner is so anxious for his elec tion? He voted the people’s money into his pocket, joined in with a ring of the most corrupt political thieves the world ever saw, voted twenty-five thousand dollars of the people’s money into the groaning cotters of the great American usurper, comes home and glories in it, and tells the people that they must send him back again. Why did lie not use that big brain in trying to do something to relieve poor, down-trodden Louisiana? He did nothing of the kind. If he gets back to Washington, he will do something for John Hancock, but nothing for the honest men of Texas. If, then, no better man than Hancock comes out, (which I think there will) we will nominate a man that we can vote for, though most of the newspapers are like Hon. John, they want the people to vote as they say; they must not think for themselves at all, and if the press wishes to join in with corrupt politicians, let it go, the people can do without the press about as well as the press can do without them, The couutry needs a pure, incor-ruptible press to assist them in hunting scoundrels from positions of honor; but, the majority of the press, m the present decade, seems to coincide with the cor-ruptionist in preference to sustaining troth and principle. Such, Sir, are the sentiments of an honest man and a devout Patron. Respectfully, W. C. Love, Master Salem Grange. A LA DA MA A FFAIRS—DENIAL. ^ Montgomery, Ala., Oct. 3.—The State Executive Committee of the Democratic and Conservative paity of Alabama issue au address to the people of the United States, denying the truth of the charges made by Senator Spencer and Congress-men White, Hays and Pelham, and J. J. Martin, as to outrages in this State; and submit proofs conclusively showing the untruth of these charges; and that they were made for the purpose of influencing the elections in the North and West, and to procure Federal troops to be sent to Control the election in Alabama; that the rations donated by Congrass for the suf-ferers in the overflowed districts are be-ing used as a corruption fund of Alabama, for the purpose of controlling the elec-tion .by .the Republican party, and sub-milting proof showing the corrupt char-acter and lawlessness of the leaders of that party in Alabama. Inasmuch as rumor was current here two days, that the Republican caucus in this city had resolved to have nine men in Sumpter arrested, it is the gener-al opinion that the arrests were for polit-ical effect. Sumpter county is one hun-died miles west of this place. The pris-oners are to be taken to Mobile, Monday. Deputy United States Marshals Randolph and Wellford reached this city this after-noon, with four prisoners, white men, hand-cuffed and chained together. They were arrested in Lumpter county on the charge of killing W. P. Billings, on the first of August, last. DEM OR ALT ZED IIEP UBLICA NS. THE navasota REPUBLICANS ‘ IN COUN-CIL— NO NOMINATIONS TO CONGRESS. Pursuant to a call of the chairman, Abarham W. King, a well attended meet-ing was held here to-day. Senator John S. Mills was, by acclama-tion, elected delegate to the Chattanooga Convention. The Hon. C. D. Ilarn was elected chairman of the County Executive Com* mittce and Jas. II. Teague secretary* A resolution w'as passed endorsing and approving of the resolutions passed by the tax-payers precinct meetings, and asking that all dishonest officials in this county may be hunted down and prose-cuted. (V resolution was passed disapproving the appointment of Dr. Rignon Quincy us postmaster at Navasota, Texas. Through the influence of J. W. Barnes and Flanagan & Co., it was resolved fur-tiler, that the authorities at Washington he notified that said appointment was bought for money, and that said appoint-ment is obnoxious to the Republican masses of Grimes county, and especially Navasota. Resolved, That this meeting tender the so-called Representative J. T. Smith, of Grimes county, their thanks for going hack on the Democratic pet measure, the Landlord and Tenant bill, for said vote. Great enthusiasm prevailed, everything passing off quietly. No nomination for Congress was made. jx.yl w6ra HOUSTON, TEXAS. J. E. FOSTER, OLDEST REAL ESTATE!AGENT In Houston, Texas, OCtl f)« '/VHJ R.

Ho says; “Suppose you wish to express the idea that our boy, ‘Aga-memnon is spanking.’ The difference may seem slight to you, hut it would be a matter of considerable importance to Agamemnon; and if a choice should be given him, it is probable that he would suddenly select the latter form.” J.

A large party of movers passed through Columbus, Ky., on Tuesday of last week, en route for Helton, Bell county, Texns ’I lie Ncxvs on tlie Situation 111 Souflt Carolina. The telegraph intimates the probability of a popular uprising in Charleston, South Carolina, similar to that which lately oe-curred in New Orleans. Should it occur, the South Carolina case would lack one feature to make it a companion picture to the Louisiana case. There are not two con-testing State governments in the former State. But the administration of Moses is universally conceded to be even more corrupt, rapacious and infamous than either the Kellogg or Warmoth adminis-trations. Moses failed to be nominated for re-election, but aspires to the leader* ship of the next Legislature. The mass meeting which has demanded the remov-al of the President of tlie Election Com-missioners, embraced both the Republi-can and Conservative opposition to Cham-bcrlin, the regular Republican nominee) but its chief object, perhaps, was to force a reorganization of the Election Board in furtherance of an impiovement in the next Legislature. [From the News.] Items from JPolk County. Polk Co., Tex., Sept. 30, 1874. Editors Nows: Polk county has raised a splendid crop of com. Large yield of rust-proof oats; common oats a failure. A three-fourths crop of cotton has been made. Rice looks fine, and enough has been raised to supply the county. Cane, potatoes, etc., are very promising. Everybody is buoy-ant. Some emigration is coming in, and much more is anticipated. Rape is a fashionable offense with the Africs—three of the government’s pets are in jail, so charged; one of them from Hardin county. The scholastic census just taken shows, whites, 1,059* Indians, 56; negroes,723— total, 1,837. This shows an increase in whites and a decrease in negroes. Quiz. Henrietta Bowers, a child thirteen years old, is a prisoner in the West Clies-ter, Pa., jail, on a charge of attempting to poison the family of Benjamin J. Mil-ler, of New Garden township. Miller, his wife and two other persons became very sick shortly after dinner, on the 27th ult., and the physician who attended them, pronounced it a case of poisoning; The girl Bowers, on being questioned, confessed that she had mixed arsenic with the food, from a package she had found in tlie house. Fortunately, she used* too much of the mineral, or the result might have been fatal. No cause is assigned for the extraordinary conduct of the child. Lee Howard, of Charleston, S. C., won the Augusta, Ga., cotton pool, of $810.
