THE EAGLE. OFFICIAL FAPIR of Till COCXTT. DECATUR, IVDIAAA? FRIDAY, m. is, tSGT. The Election. We have not received the official returns of the elections held • last week, but sufficient to confirm all that we stated last week. The election, in New Jersey, was principally for members of the Gen - eral Assembly. The Legislature will be strongly Democratic, only one county having been carried by the Radicals. Massachusetts has elected the Radical State ticket by 20,000, which reduces their majority over [ last year some’ 15,000. The liq- j nor prohib tion question entered > largely in to the election of members of the Legislature. The Legislature is largely Radical, but those who oppose the prohibition of the sale of liquors have elected a strong majority. In Kansas the question of negro and female sufiragc entered largely into the canvass and was rejected by a majority of some 10,000.— The Radicals carried the state by a gratly reduced majority. Detroit, a charter election was held, the Democrats electing their mayor by 300 majority. The city council will remain as it has been a tie. The election in Wisconsin shows a decided Democratic gain, but Fairchild, Radical, for Governor is probably re-elected by a small majority. Returns from thirty cities and towns in Minesota, indicate the re-election of Marshall, Radical, for Governor, by a greatly reduced majority. Negro suffrage is believed to be defeated. —, JJ3TThe Radicals it seems are making extraordinary exertions to make a military organization of the negroes for Radical purposes. Several thousand of them are already organized in the vicinity of Washington, in support of Radical re construction measures, and further organizations are reported in different portions of the South.— It is an effort to sustain the Radicals by force in case of a defeat next fall. The bond holders furnish the money and the negroes are going to do the fighting. They can well afford to foot the bills, so long as the toiling millions are striving to meet the interest on the war debt. And thcseGovernment theives and plunderers are preparing to make this tribute paid to them a permanent thing. by force, if defeated at the ballot-box. They don’t like to be paid off in the money of their own creation. Greenbacks were good enough to pay off the soldier; they are good enough to pay the pension of his. widow. They are good enough to pay off individuals, though they contract to pay in gobi, and th >re is no repudiation in any of these acts. R it, offer to pay off abon Iholder's principal and interest, in fall of his demand, in greenbacks, and lie scorns it with the cry of repudiation, and the whole Radical party join him in the hue and cry. They are the meanest of Shylocks, and we propose to pay them off according to tlieirbo.nl—no more—no less—call it repudiation or what you will—the bond Radicals, the bond—we will pay only according to the bond. If the bonds say gold in the name es fair dealing and honestly, pay in gold-; if not, pay in lawful money called ‘degal tenders,” “greenbacks,” or what you will. A pretty set of men these Radicals are to go back on their “Lincoln scabs.” XSrThe President- has issued an order suppressing the armed negroe organizations being made under the directions of the Grand Army of the republic. What a Radical howl we shall hear in a few days. Parson Jones had you not better tell “II” to toot his horn or blow his whistle for that hundred men or more.

This is a case in which Mr. Burdg was indicted for burning his note, held by a second party, Which under our statute is forgery and punished as a felony.

The says the following is a copy of the order of the President for suppressing armed organizations in the" District of Columbia. It is addressed to Grant: “I am reliably advised that there are within the District of Columbia a number of armed organizations, formed without authority of law and for purposes which have not been communicated to the Government. Being at the present time unnecessary for the preservation of order, or the protection of the civil authority, they have excited serious apprehensions as to their real design. You will, therefore, take official steps for promptly disbanding and suppressing all such illegal organizations.” This order was dated last Monday,, the 4th instant, and applies to all armed military organizations whether composed of negroes or white men. Armed Segro Organizations. The World's special says that ) numerous communications have been sent to the Executive, from various quarters of the South, stating that armed organizations of colored being formed, and in some instances are threatening the lives of tne„whites ; that negro companies are drilling near Chain Bridge, and other places in Virginia, for the purpose of supporting Congress in the enforcement of law to depose the President during impeachment. The matter has been referred to General Grant, who says that no authority for organizing sfffeh companies has been given by the War Department. The President, it is understood, has ordered General Grant to take steps to disband and surpress them. Ihe Impeachment Movement. The Judiciary Committee, both majority and minority, will have their reports ready to submit to Congress on Thursday the 21st. The majority report will be against impeachment, and be signed by some members who voted nay in committee on the Sth of June last. The minority will be- Boutwell, Lawrence, Williams and Thomas. As heretofore, both sections of committee are agreed upon one point, that this question must be immediately decided, and • it will probably be the only business ofthe few days that will remain of the first session of the Fortieth Congress. Experiments lately tried in Taris proved that a horse can live twen-ty-five days without solid food, merely drinking water.

Foreign Aews. Battle near Rome and Defeat of Garibaldi. Paris, Tuesday, November 5. The following intelligence has just been received from Rome:— At six this morning the Papal troops, supported by the French forces attacked Garibaldi at Monte Rotundo, and defeated him.— Some say he is a prisoner and some say he was killed half an hour after the attack commenced, Garibaldi finding the retreat was cut oft' fought his way to the town of Mente Rotundo, where he was | reinforced by some Italian troops, I but the French coming to the assistance of the Pointifical soldiers, he was beaten. The following account comes from another source: Garibaldi was attacked and defeated on Sunday ; he retreated and surrendered to the Italians. Paris. November 4-Midnight. Genera! Lamer Mora, who was ! sent to Paris by the King of Italy ■ on a mission, the nature of which j has not been divulged, has retum- ■ e l to Florence, having failed to accomplish the objects for which he ! was dispatched thither. The ultimatum of Napoleon was presented by the French Charge’d Affairs at Florence to the Italian Government, on Sunday. An instantreply was demanded. Paris, November s.—The Jfanetieur publishes the full particulars ofthe battle in Italy. The scene of the fight was near Tivola. There were 3,000 of the insurgents either killed, .wounded or taken prisoners of war. There were 4,000 Garibaldians, while on a march to reinforce the insurgents, stopped, disarmed and turned back.— The greatest agitation prevails in Italy. The ultimatum of Napoleon is to be answered on or before Thursday. Vienna, November 5.-Evening. The Vienna Debatte, a semi-offi-cial journal of this city, states that Baron Von Beust, in a note, says that the policy of the Emperor Napoleon and that of Francis Joseph is the same nominally—that of peace. Berlin, November s—Evening. —lt is thought here that the recent defeat of General Garibaldi cancels the ultimatum of Napoleon, London, November s.—Serious bread riots occured tn Exeter yes terday and to-day. All the meat and bread shops in the city have been sacked. Incendiary fires were breaking out iu< different parts of the town. The town was much excited and the local authorities had petitioned Government for the troops to quell the disorder. Florence, November 7—Evening.—The accounts of the last engagement near Rome have been received. During the battle of Sunday Garibaldi brought into action ten thousand men at one time. During the day the Papal forces were beaten, and Garibaldi was gaining ground, when the French came up and turned his victory into a defeat. It is now reported that the insergents lost eight hundred killed and wounded, and two thousand taken prisoners. Indlan Affairs. Gen. Sherman has issued a military order announcing that peace has been made' with the Kiowa Camanche, Apache, Cheyenne and ! Arapahoe Indians. The General then says the hostilities heretofore existing are past. Troops will cease to arrive. By the treaty, the right guaranteed to the Indians to hunt game in the unsettled limits of Kansas, Nebraska, snd Colorado, is to be respected. Indian hunting parties are to be treated iri‘a friendly spirit, though no precautions are omitted by the commanding officers of posts, and troops are required to insure safetp. Peace is to be kept with the Indians, and force is authorized to be used if necessary, to restrain acts of violence against the Indians trading with them without license, or doing anything calculated to disturb peace relations. Movement in Favor of Chief Justice Chase for the Presidency. A Washington correspondent or the Philadelphia Inquirer states that a movement will soon be inaugurated by the friends of Chief Justice Chase to bring him prominently before the country as a presidential candidate. Leading I Northern politicians have been in consultation with him for several days past, and it is intimated that one of the prominent Republican papers of New York city will soon hoist his standard and squarely advocate his claims against all other candidates. Petersburg, November 7.—lt is reported on good authority that the Snltanis making military preparations. Fifty thousand needle guns were recently purchased by the Turkish War Department, while large shipments of rifled guns have been made to the Turkish forces in Asia. It is also known that the Government has been restoring the citadel, completing walls, and otherwise strengthening the fortifications of Kors.
