It i* a pleasant ride the traveler gets
now on the Western Railroad from West
Poiat to Montgomery. And it is not
only in repairing his road that Superin
tendent Foreac^e has shown the qualities
of a good offloer, bat in the selecting of
his conductors be seems to have had an
eye to the welfare end oomfort of his
passengers, for who does not feel happy
on looking at Crowder, and assured ol
being well eared for on eeeing Webster 7
And then there is McOooL Everybody
knows MeCool, end it’s no use to say
Anything more about him. The conduc
tors on the Western Railroad are good
fellows, all; and we ere proud of their
Superintended aa a representative in
Alabama of our own Gate City.
The first town we see in Alabama after
leaving Weat Point is Opelika. This
plaoe is still driving ahead and its citi-
&>ns proudly call it the young Atlanta.
We did not get off the ears here and so
did not have a chance to pick up any
items, but we stopped long enough to see
the genial face and grasp the manly
band of our clever friend, Will
Fraser. The sight of him re
vived pleasant memories, and we were
sorry we oould not accept his cordial in
vitation to Htop in his thriving little eity.
Long may he live and love and be loved
in turn’. From Opelika we came to sweet
Aubnrn, looking as lovely as ever in its
beautiful repoSe ’heath the bright sum
mer sunlight
We were glad to learn that the Male
College here is more than usually flour
ishing thie year. As we passed through
we could nol holp thinking of the bright
eyes we had seep here ih the summer
<htvs gone by, and it determined ns to go
on till we got (o where we Conld see those
same eyes again, and we Went, and we
saw ’em, and ae’re oonquered.
After Auburn came Loaehapoka. This
is where WV-m k Bailey lives. Whack’s a
whale. We also saw here Dr. Wiloy
Bloodworth. You would know, without
being told of it, that he was the son of
our old friend and Georgia’s model
farmer, 8*>lomod W. Bloodworth, Esq.,
of Griffin, Ga., and the brotherof Frank,
and Jeff, and Jim, and Litt, and all the
balanoe of that innumerable family.
From Loaehapoka we came to Tn.skc-
gee. This is the place where the Atlanta
boys have been going of late years to get
their wives. ll is certainly a beautiful
place and lias beautiful girl*. During
our stay there J. M. Boroughs, ol At
lanta, was iparried to Miss Mary E.
Graham, daughter of Col. W. 8. Graham.
The attendants were Mr. J. D. Wing, of
Atlanta, aud Mias Ada Stevens, of Griffin,
Ga.; Mr T. K. Oglesby, of Atlanta, and
Miss Fannie Graham, of Tuskegee; Mr.
D. M. Bain, of Atlanta, and Miss Lena
McQucvu, of futkagee; Mr. Bichard
.Stubbs, of Savannah, and Miss Nonie
Graham, of Montgomery. The cere
mony was performed by the Bov. Mr.
Nall, of Griffin, Ga, and the happy
couple lqft immediately for the Gate City
accompauicd by the attendants. Thus
again lias Atlanta enterprise taken from
Tuskegee one of the brightest jewels in
its ooronet of beauty.

For warm weather, mosquitoes, and
pretty ladies, commend us to Montgom
y. We have been several times “exorn-
_.nted in a liquidity of sweat" sinoe being
here. We fight mosquitoes all night and
flirt a fari t all day. Great complaint
among the fariners throughout this sec
tion. Crops are in very tied condition,
and the negroes are too busy t>ion1iking
to clean them ont
The political affairs of this State are
assuming a much more hopeful shape
than formerly. Alabama has a Demo
cratic Governor, Lieutenant-Governor,
and Legislature. Governor Lindsay la
now in wuahingtou before the Kn-Klnx
Committee.
Montgomery has some eminent lawyeis
and Hue orators. Here is Bi-Governor
Watts and Hon. David Clopton, than
wbom there are perhaps few better ora
tors in the South; Judge and Elmore,
and the inimitable Sam ltioe, one of the
shrewdest lawyers in America, and a man
altogether suignirrts. This too,is the home
oi that Hotspur of the South, Gen. James
H. Clanton. He is the ohairman of the
State Democratic Executive Committee,'
and has rendered In the State most in
valuable service in that position. His
name has been the slogan of the Democ
racy since the war, and a terror to the
carpet-baggers, m-allawags and Radicals
rally. The boys mill him “ Old
’—his hair being of that now
fashionable oolor. Toe General is an
old Clay Whig. The Ku-Klnx Com
mittee bis summoned him to Washing
ton, and he is UnW in that city. He will
be oertain to “speak right on," and tell
them what he knows in a “round, unvar-
niahed tale.*
Wherever I go I find some live repre-
■sDtativeof the Gate City, illustrating its
go-ahead and energetic spirit. Walking
down Main street, I came to the St.
Nicholas Bar and Restaurant. Its glit
ter and glare attracted my attention, and
made me think for a moment that I was
in Atlanta, ao I just stepped in to Bee
what manner of man this was who was
naming this live concern in llimstaidold
city, when, who should I find preudiug
over the magnificent establishment in a
right royal manner, but pur old friend

Editor Sum:—There has been so much
rain in this seotion that the lowlands are
frequently overflowed, and many faimem
say that their bottom corn is drowned
out, or choked to doath by weeds and
grass. The uplands promise an abra
dant yield. Fruit grows luxoriantly.
Flowers have failed to bloom, and the
bnsy bees are bankrupts. Several rob
beries have been Ktempted upon their
hives, but no honey was fonnd, not even
enough to mix with distilled juices of
the delicious peach.
The niggers have what they call a “sin
ner meetin’ ” It is largely attended.—
This is their great reason for baptism.
Apjiropos, I heard a “hardshell" say of
baptism, that the Minister ol their
Church, if culled upon, would not baptise
a man who had voted for Grant; that
such a vote is not destined to be saved.
There was soother railroad meeting
here on the 17th. Col Glenn, oi your
aity, was the invited speaker for the oc-
ouaion, but did not put in an appeantnoe.
Many of the oldest citixens and land own
ers of this vicinity, and some from the
State of Paulding, were in “
The excitement increases, and the only
way to abate it is for the Georgia West
ern to hurry up and be certain to have a
depot at Powder Springs. They will give
the right of way, and I think a tew cross
ties. That is not all they will do; they
will spend their money free, improve
those mineral springs, aad provide a
traveling patronage, whioh will load the
locomotive annually with health end
pleasure hunters, encourage every benefit
to the road, take stock according to their
panes, had oo-operete willingly and con
tinually with the oompany.
£Tbe wheat harvest is over and the old
barn floor is scarcely covered. Oats ere

threw off all. subjection to the British
crown, the privilege and trust of suffrage
have belonged to the several States, and
have been granted, regulated, and con

whatever, to, deprive any State of this
right, or interfere with its exercise, is a
flagrant usurpation of power, wl

if sanctioned by the people wfll subvert

end in a single, centralized, and consoli

A Resolved, That we oordially approve

WEOTMOKELAKP’S REVOLTS.
The Greeusburg Argus, the organ of
the Democracy of Westmoreland county,
repudiates the platform adopted at the
reeant Democratic State Convention. It
aaye: “Beyond the nomination oi can
didates, they (the Convention) had no
authority to act for the party,” aud also,
that
The Democratic platform is a legacy
from the fathers of the Revolution—
the Constitution adopted by the people
yithout the aid of bayonets or negro
voters. Wo never can make the ninth
resolution an article of our faith. The
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments
are fraudulent appendages to the Consti
tution. The Democratic party was or-
ranized to protect the Constitution anil
be people against all fraudulent devices
of the enemies of a free white man's gov
ernment The Democratic party cannot
gulp these fraudulent amendments and
preserve their integrity.
A DKHOORATIC WATCHMAN SPEAKS.
In the article which we published
from the Pittsburg Post in our last issue,
we overlooked the laot that it included
in its oommendation of our platform the
odioua and infamous “ninth resolution,”
to which we cannot and will not sub
scribe.” We am nner accept the “Fi/-
IsmA Amendment" and tne illegal and
unoonatitational legislation that has fol
lowed it aa the act of a constitutionally
appointed authority, in the face of the
feet that the negroes and scalawags, who
obtained their seats in Congress by force
■ad fraud, were allowed to participate in
each legislation. The Fifteenth Amend
ment was foroed upon the people by the
ltend of power, ana was never ratified by
the Slates in a constitutional way. Hence,
we caanot aocept it, and we say it should
and of right ought to be repealed. And
we hold that it will be the duty of the
Democracy to repeal it whenever they
get the power to do so. If we thought
they would not do so at the proper time,
our faith in the integrity and purity of
oar party would be greatly shaken.
No issue is dead or can ever be doad
that involves a principle. Hence, can-
not agree to forget the past aud overlook
aU|the^one by iniquity and treachery of
Greeley and the Carpet-flaggers.
Mr. Greeley was in high feather at
his grand reception. After belabor
ing the stupid Southern aristoeracx
who Blight the Northern school
nutrms and whaling the Ku Klux
with a OTOwbar, he fell might and
main on the carpet-baggers, first in
the way of heavy malediction, aud
then assailing them with ridicule and
buffoonery. Greeley is developing
high dramatic powers. He says:
Borne of these thieves u(fecit to be
honest men. They go about with
long faces, aud with their eyes rolled
up and their hands clusjied over their
stomachs—[great laughter]—a n d
profess to lie greatly concerned for ill
education of the blacks, anil still
more concerned for the salvation of
their souls.
Here Mr. Greeley imitated the hyp
ocritical carpet-bagger, clasping his
hand over his abdomen, rolling up
his eyes, and whining out with nasal
twang. “Let us pray. [Great laugh
ter and cheers.] Yes, said Mr. Gree
ley, these rten are heavy on praying,
but they spell pray with an ‘ii,’ aud
in that sense they fulfill the apostoli
cal injunction to pray without oeus-
ing.
