Rate* of Advertising.
The following Rates of Advertising
will hereafter be observed at the Blade Of
fice :
For nil transient advertising, 80 cents per
square, for tlie first insertion, or 40 cents per
square for each subsequent insertion. Ten lines
or less is a square.
tine square, one month, £2 00
Two •• ‘ “ 300
Three “ “ “ 4 00
One square three months, 4 00 i
Two “ “ 700 j
Three •* “ “ 9 00
©be square one year, 11 00
Two “ “ “ 19 00
Three “ •* 25 00
The above terms will be strictly adhered
to, except in cases of special con-
Prast. . ,In no instance will patrons at the
North and, from a distance, be charged
less than home customers. Our space for
advertising is limited, and unless we can
get it -At a fair, remunerating price, we shall
do w ithout it and furnish our readers other
mattes i,n its place. Our subscription list
already exceeds that of nine-tenths of the
country- papers of Georgia, and is increasing
every day. It is, therefore, an excellent
advertising medium. As we are a “ public
institution, ” if the people pay our rates we
are obliged to advertise for them. Os one
thing they may rest satisfied, onr columns
shall not be filled with long advertisements
of Patent Medicines , from New York, Bos
ton and elsewhere, under any circumstances.
When our present contracts expire, we shall
not suffer ourselves, or our readers imposed
n aoy more.
We’believe the outrageous slanders ful
minated by Akin and his party press have
recoiled upon the heads of the slanderers,
and consequently the majority vote for
Brown,. .Gartrell aud the Democratic candi
dates will bo rather an increased vote in
this county over that cast for Brown two
years ago, when lie was elected Governor
by such a decided majority.
BW We do not wish to be too personal
in attempting to point out the present psi
tion of a certain poiyonomous combination,
~tivv in active formation in this county, to
defeat the roiling of a certain Iron Wheel,
or any part or parcel of said machinery,
let Consequences be what they may. Reli
gionist has a Roman nose, and is always
readmit)'raise a low with Iron Wheel, be
cause the nose of Iron Wheel is too sharp
and straight to please the fancy of Reli
gionist, and therefore he tells Iron Wheel
if he will not associale with him in church ,
neither shall lie participate with him in
State, and directs his bull to shove Iron
Wheel off the track when and wherever he
is caught on his platform, and when lie
crowds in upon one of Religionist’s political
planks to seek promotion thereon. Now
Religionist may think he knows some things,
but we can inform him that he does not
know every thing, else he would not attempt
to shove Iron Wheel off a plank which, if
well understood, he would slide off of with
out pushing, and that, too, as quick as a
terrapin would drop off of a log. But our
iiiuendoes may be more intelligible to some
when the votes from the precincts are re
turned on next Tuesday, and as a wink is as
good as a nod to a blind horse, we shall
come to a close.
llickorv Level, Carroll county, )
September 24th, 1859. j
Mr. Editor of the Blade —Slit: I ret my
self down to inform you that the Americans
and Know Nothings in this section of Car
roll are so d —d hostile against Governor
Brown that I do not know what to do with
them but to let them to their
idols. But as for myself I say hurrah for
Joe Brown and the Railroad. Some have
been telling lies on Governor Brown, such
as that he has been getting drunk at the
grogshops along the State Load and daring
any man on the ground “to fight him, and
swearing worse than thtfy did in F/anders,
and ail tht. But T have this much to say
about it, the man that says Joe Brown gets
drunk and swears telis a lie, and I care not
who die is—l wilt tell him so to his face. —
Yes, they think that their lies will beat old
Joe, but they are badly mistaken for such
bare faced liars never can make the trip, I
will be d—d if they can, for Carroll will give
Brown an increased majority on Monday
next. So mote it be.
A Carroll Democrat. .
Jt9? 0 call the attention of out readers
to the communication of a Carroll Demo
crat, and ask all who have the right kind of
eand in their gizzards (lot them be Ameri
cans or Democrats) to frown on that man
or that party who will descend to barefaced
lies and slanderous misrepresentations for
the purpose of getting a vote for any inan
or any party. Every .body that has sense
enough to- find the way to mill’ knows that
•Governor Brown is an honorable, high-,
minded gentleman, or he never could Lave
been Governor of Georgia, and that Col.
Akin is a man of some distinction or the
Americans would not have nominated him
as their candidate, with n dead majority
against tlietn of some ten or twelve
awd, Then- fellow-eitijens, if anv man or
* |
set es men come to you on the day of the
election (which is next Monday) with their
noses turned rap with a sneer, and tell yon
to vote against Brown because lie happens
to be-a baptist, or in like manner against
Col. Akin because he happens to be a Meth
odist, do you set all such contracted fellows
down as either fools or knaves, and vote for
the man you think the best qualified, not
only to fill the Gubinatorial office, but your
county representatives and your member
for Congress, for if you go to mix up relig
ious denominations with political parties, as
some are trying to do, you will soon kick the
fat into the fire rnd an inteinal war is the
inevitable consequence. Now to support
this, our most earnest advice to you, let me
tell you what Solomon in one of his best
Proverbs says : “ be that hideth hatred with
lying lips; and he that uttereth a slander,
is a fool.” We have heard it said that a
wink is as good as a nod to a blind horse. —
We hope you will all come up to the poles
on Monday next seeing and acting like wise
honest men and vote accordingly, and then
let the elections go as it may you will have
cleared your consciences, and that will com.
fort you in your feelings and be a curb ou
your wrath.
San Flurter.
We clip the following communiication of
“ San Flurter ” from the Intelligencer of the
20th i list., as we think it too good to be
withheld from the people at this particular
crisis. From our long personal acquaint
ance and the many published communica-.
tiens we have seen over the signature of
Niggerfoot, African District, Tar River,
San Fluter, Arc. we hare learned his true ini
tials just as certain as we learned to say G.
i G. to oret-horse when-we were a plow boy—
•‘San Flurter ” is one of the most astute and
clear headed writers in his section of coun
try, and though an underground Knownoth
ing, he is a true Southern Rights man and
a first rate judge of human nature and well
posted in matters and things in general, and
if he has smote his own party hip and
thigh, it is because he is indignant at their
folly in attempting to traduce the well earn
ed character of Governor Brown, for no
other reason than because ho happened to be
a Baptist. This act of “San Flurter,” we
look upon as magnanimous in him, and I
recommend all Americans to read his letter
as set forth below and hope they may profit
thereby.

SAN FLURTER.
The last Athens Banner corrects the state
mentrecently madein the Atlanta American,
that Hod. Hull and Mr.llope Hull, of
that city, had “ abandoned Governor Brown
and’declared for Akin.” The Banner Says if
the American is as much mistaken in regard
to tfie other gentlemen mentioned, as it is
in regard to the Messrs Hull, it will be
hard for the editors to substantiate tlieir as
sertion. It says that there is not one word
of truth in the assertion that either of these
men have “abandoned Brown and declared
for Akin.”

[FOR THE INDEPENDENT lILADK.J
-J’ J\idge Bolton : I seo an article in the last
Banner, over the signature j>f “Junius,”
which takes you to task for an editorial in
lue Blade of the 16th inst., in which you
mentioned some things that had taken pface
in Newnan. -I he article reminds mo of
some schools I have known, where some
poor unfortunate devil had to take not only
liis own but the punishment due other
scholars who the teacher wished to favor,
or whose parents it was his interest not. tq
offend. “Junius” magnifies your article
into a great offence, and then proceeds to
lash you most unmercifully, without one
word of censure on other parties who, if
any offence has been committed, are more
gniltv than you are. It is singular that ho
should select ail “old dotard,” as he styles
you, on whom to empty the vials of liis
wrath, while the others are allowed to pass
without even being mentioned. He calls
you a “ two legged hyena” “ for attempting
to defile the fair fame and reputation ” of
Newnan, and says, “it should be resented
by every good citizen, in a way that will
make the slanderer quail beneath the frown
of an indignant community.” Indeed, “Ju
nius,” that is very modest in you. If others
do not choose to follow in your lead, they
will not be regarded by yon as good citizens.
There is a good deal more gas of the same
kind, which the friends of “Junius” ought,
to he glad he got rid of, as too much of if
would prove fatal to any man on the “ face
of this broad green earth.”
lie does not deny tiie statement yon
made, however, but tries to ridicule and
make light of it by summing up as follows:
“Some boys help themselves to a few
j wateruiellons lying in some rich old gentle
man’s patch, rotting—or grabble a few po
tatoes for a roast —or dress up a bull-year
ling in fantastic apparel for a little sporty
or hang up a stuffed pair of pants and cost
—or perhaps a plank upon a side-walk tum
bles into the ditch from decay or some other
cause as not yet determined by the Courts—
or a paling falls off for the want of a nail in
a sure place—or a sign-board takes to itself
legs and walks oft’—-or some of the Dutch
have been stirred up with a “ sharp stick,”
and told to keep their “ eyes skinned" — or
some fellow, feeling liis keeping in this lapd.
of plenty, has gone about crowing like a
shanghai rooster —or some man bound Tor
Texas takes a pop with his pistol at some
one from the Fourth District.”
Notice, Mr. Editor, liow lightly lie men
tions the fact that some of the business men
Hlad been ordered to leave Newnan bv a cer
tain time, or abide the consequences. Then
with what sang froid he speaks of that
shooting scrape, which created such excite
ment in the community, and caused Judge
Hammond to declare that Greer, one of the
parties, must be arrested if it cost the conn
ty ten thousand dollars. I begin to think it I
was quite a small affair. |
Judge Hammond, in his charge to the!
Grand Jury, took an entire different view of;
matters. He thought midnight marauders, j
violators of the law and disturbers of the ■
peace and quiet of the community should i
be turned over to the tender mercies of the :
law, and so charged the Jury. Now suppose
the conclusion which will naturally be drawn
from the above extract, by those unacquain
ted with the circumstances, was corroct, j
would not Judge Hammond bo pronounced 1
the most consummate blockhead that ever j
presided over a Court for making the charge j
lie did to the Jury. The Judge and “Juni
us ” differ widely’, but there is nothing:
strango in that—great men often do. Ah ,
though Judge Hammond is a Preacher as I
well as a Judge, I do not pretend that he is !
entirely free from liability to err—the appeal
cases in his Courts prevent such a belief;
indeed, so frequent are they that some think
it would be a hazardous experiment to rely
on a conversion under his prayers and
preaching, as the devil might appeal and
get anew trial. While I admit that,Jr?J
commits errors—some of them grave ones,
too
too severely. It is a law of Nature that
where there is an excess of one thing, there
is always a deficiency in another, and we all
know a house may be well furnished below,
and very meagerly supplied in the garret.
Nevertheless, I am bound to believe what
he says in open Court, as a sworn officer in
the discharge of liis official duties, in prefer
ence to mere assertions made in tlie columns
of a newspaper, over a fictitious signature.
If the article in the Blade makes you a
“ two legged hyena ” and a “ slanderer ” of
the town of Newnan, the Judged charge to j
the Jury puts him on the same list, and
“ every good citizen should frown ” upon
him. Would it not be well to get up a
petition requesting hitn to resign 1 Sup
pose you undertake it, “Junius.” If you-
a briefless lawyer or a doctor without
a patient, it would give you something to!
do, and time wont hang so heavy on your |
hands. If you have not sufficient business
of your own to employ your time, why give
your attention to tho business of others—
a man ought to be employed at something,
you know. If you are a lawyer, who knows
but you may get the vacancy yourself—
lawyers of mighty small calibree get to be
Judges some times.
Let “’Junius” take the list of the Grand
Jury and see who composed it. lie will
find on it some of the best men of the
comity —men who stand higher in the esti-.
mation of their fellow-citizens than ho ever
did or ever will, and who can beat him for
ai>y office in the county for which ho may
offer. ’I hey were sworn to discharge their
duty faithfully, and were charged by the
Judge to do it without fear or favor. What
do they say:
“In attempting faithfully to perform the
solemn duties imposed on us by tlie Grand
Juryman’s oath, and in accordance with the
clear and pointed charge delivered to us by
his Honor, we have found our labors onerous
and the path of doty strewn with thorns.—
But, like the old Roman who sat in jlulg-’
ment, and unhesitatingly condemned to
death his own son when proven guilty, we’
have been equally deaf to the promptings
of friendship, that would at times well up
from the depths of our hearts, as well as to
the outside threats and execrations of those
who would pervert justice by striking terror
to the officers of the law. Shall law and
order, or riot and rowdyism prevail in this
community ? Shall Courts of Justice or
concealed weapons be the tribunal by which
offences shall be tried ? Shall the sober
and aged citizen or the drunken and rowdy
youths, who have, Minerva-like,sprung into
existence full fiedged and armed to the teeth,
have the ascendency T These grave ques
tions have been forced upon us for decision.
We have attempted the Herculean task of
cleansing the Augean stables. Time has
failed us to complete the work,and we leave
to our more able successors the unpleasant
duty of finishing ‘the labor.’”
What do you think of that “Junius”?—
Twenty-four more “two legged hyenas”
and “slanders”! who actually speak of
“ outside threats and execrations ” to deter
them from doing their duty. Rather far
ther than you went, Mr. Editor. Judge
Hammond in his charge may speak of
midnight marauders, violators of law, ami
disturbers of the peace and quiet of the
community, and the. Grand Jury in their
Presentments may tell of “ outside threats
and execrations ” to prevent them doing
their duly, and “Junius” has not a word
to say in condemnation; but when you,
Mr. Editor, mention Plug Uglyism in con
nection with the same affair, you aro de
nounced as a “ two legged hyena ” and a
“ slanderer.” What is a midnight marauder
but a Plug Ugly ? and what is the effort to
strike terror in the officers of the law but
the worst feature of Plug Uglyism ?
I always thought that in this country an
editor had as much right to give his views
and opinions upon any subject as a Judge
or a Jury, but it seems “Junius” thinks
different, Equality. ..
Railroad Meeting.

is not a stockholder, when the amount bid
by each for said work is equal.
Col. J. D. Stewart, of Spalding, made a
zealous and telling speech. Also, Capt.
Iloln.an, a Railroad man, addressed the
meeting, showing the importance of the
project, as well as the many advantages to
be derived from its construction to the
stockholders and the country generally.—
Short but appropriate addresses w’ere also
made by Col. \V. L. Ligon, Hugh E. Buch

Horrible. —On last Thursday night, a
j few minutes after the ten o’clock” train had
| passed down, the body of a man was discov
| ered lying on the track of the W. & A. R.
li., about half a mile below this place, who
had been run over and killed. Tho bodv
was most horribly mutilated and had the
appearance of having been carried by the
cars about 30 yards and repeatedly run over
by the wheels. The bead was cleft asunder,
the trunk severed, one or both arms cut off,
both legs cut in two, one of them twice,
and scarcely any portion of the body was
left untouched. The heart, and a portion
of the skull and brain, were picked up at
some distance from the rest of tho body,
and brought to this place in a pocket hand
kerchief. The remains were identified as
those of a man named Hiram Davis, and it
is supposed that lie had got drunk and laid
down on the track for a snooze.— Ringgold
