The following address to the voters of the county was presented by Mr. A. F. Luckie; The “ Democratic Club of Athens,” in view of the fact that they are an organiz ed body of Democrats, deem it light and proper that they express their earnest wish that no man who claims to be a Democrat will cast his vote in the com ing electron for any man save the nomi nee of the party. Such ill advised voting has defeated the Democracy of the coun ty heretofore; and that man who, con- i trary to the wishes of the people, will insist on opposing the nominee, is a dis organize!, and no friend to the success | ot Democratic principles. There are but two panics—the Democrats and the Uadicais—and one who opposes the Democrats furthers the cause of Radical ism. It does not matter whether this be intentional or not, the disastrous result is none the less certain. We then would most respectfully beg that the Democra cy will, on the day of the elec tion, come to the polls cn masse, and by a solid VOTE FOR DURHAM, TIIE NOMINEE, elect a Representative of people's choice, and rebuke the presump tion of those who, while they call them selves Democrats, act against our every interest. On motion the address was unanimous ly approved, and 300 eopies ordered to be printed for distribution. On motion of Col. J. A. Sledge, it was made the duty of the working commit tee to confer with the Tax Collector and prepare nn alphabetical list of all defaul ters. Mr. Jester being called upon, made a few pertinent remarks, as to the import ance ot uniting in support of the regular nominee of the Democratic party. On motion, the meeting udjourned.

It would seem unnecessary tor us to ur-r upon every Democrat in Clark coun ty tiie imperative duty ol going to the ji'.lls next Friday and voting tor Dr. Durham, the regular nominee for th vacancy in the Legislature. lie is ■ known throughout the county as :c. in- ! telligent, honorable, and liberal minded gentleman, who will on all questions act conscientiously and with due regard for the rights and interests of all. lie is o';r no minee, and we mutt show to the c i intv and the world, the power of or- gir.dcd efforts to vindicate our choice. Tuc evils of the past have resulted from a want of effort—of organization—of due interest in public affairs. It is announced that the It idicals ot the county have made no nomination. It is not announced that they will not attempt to poll all their strength against the Democratic candidate. A victory now is the permanent redemption ol the county. We can,—VVe MUST achieve it. Let every Democrat leave his plough, his store, his shop and bis office, on the dayof the election, and make one earnest, united effort for Dr. Durham Crockery and Glass ware.— The largest stock of crockery, glass-ware, lumps and kerosene oil, in Athens.

We have seen a wood cut of the Lucy Cobb Institute engraved by him, which is admirably executed. Mr. Hyde has been in Atlanta for some time, but has selected Athens as a location, be lieving that it is a favorable point for his business. He lias a number ot orders in wood engraving in band, and we commend him to those wishing work of the kind. Don’t Fail to go to the Polls ext Friday, nnd vote for Durham for i he Legislature. Electrotvping.—Wo have seen a very skillful specimen of electrotyping, executed by Prof. B. T. Hunter ol the Georgia State College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts. All the appara tus was made by him without any prac- cal knowledge or observation of the art. The plate prints perfectly, nnd all that is required to do first class electro- typing is machinery for plaining and mounting the plates. Flour.—Twenty thousand lbs. of flour for sale by J. H. HUGGINS & Co. The New Postal Bill—The new postal bill, which has become a law, authorizes the use of one cent postal cards lor correspondence, similar to those introduced in Great Britain nearly two years ago. The House provided in the bill for cards with a paper flap to cover and conceal the writing; the Senate changed this to an open card. In refer ence to committee the style of card was left to tiie discretion of the Postmaster eral, who is understood to prefer the open card. The tucc of the card will lieat a one cent stamp, and will be pro vided with lines for the address, and the back will be ruled for the letter. The postage on circulars, newspapers, and other transient printed matter, which under the old law was two cents for every four ounces or less, is now one cent for every two ounces or less. Small circulars, which formerly cost two cents to mail, can now be sent for one cent. Sales of Land.—The following record of the transfers of real estate in this county, embraces all the recent trans- Who are the Impracticables! We have earnestly sought to im press upou our readers the importance of adhering to principle ; we have be lieved, and do still believe, that the Democratic party was stronger the day the Cincinnati Convention met than it had been in twenty years— that its great mission has not yet been accomplished, and that a firm and manly adherence to its principles would wrest the government from the hands of the spoilers, as soon as the war passion had subsided, and the people could be made to take a calm i survey of the situation. We are not among those who be lieve that the election of Greeley is in any sense a remedy for the evils we endure. He is opposed to all the car dinal tenets of the Democratic fuith, and his objection to Grant is purely personal, and uot in any sense based on opposition to his centralism, or his policy toward the South, because Mr. Greeley has had much to do with shaping all the measures of Grant’s administration. We believe the endorsement of Greeley by the Democratic party will kill that grand old organization ; we have also grave apprehensions that the masses will not vote for Greeley “ to beat Grant,” but will stay away from the polls, and Grant will be re elected. With these convictions we have earnestly opposed the endorsement of Greeley by the Baltimore Convention, and have urged the importance of sending true men to our State Con vention, and of having an expression, from every county, of the popular will on this great question. Our county convention enunciates the good old doctrine of the fathers, and at the same time, like good Democrats, re cognizes Baltimore as the binding ex ponent of party action. If the action at Baltimore is regular aud fair it will be the duty of Southern Democrats to acquiesce in it. We see nothing wrong—nothing impracticable in this course, and we are deeply gratified that it has been endorsed by the Democracy of Clark, and other counties of North-East Georgia. Head the resolutions of the Madison county meeting—composed of the most sterling and true men in the county. It will be remembered wbat a howl was set up from one end of the coun try to the other when Congress, in the Spring of last year, passed the bay onet election law, giving the military the supervision and control of all elec tions in cities of twenty thousand or more. Mr. Greeley boa ted of being the father of that law in New York through the coin milt! of his despised i 1'ibune. lie was, however, dissatis fied with the law only in one particu lar, as the following extract from an article in the IrUnme, of the 31st of May, 1871, just one year ago, will show: “It is urged by>the Democratic organs that the law is to be enforced in State and municipal elections.— This is done to make it more obnox ious, if that be possible, to their party. Bui, UNFORTUNATELY, this is an error. The law applies only to Presidential and Congressional elect ions, THOUGH WE HEARTI LY WISH IT COUDD BE MADE TO APPLY TO ALL ERS.” * JHT.IIj. 23 UUJ44,—Cotton Yarn* ,1 1 70 Chtuaburn, per rd. 16 % Shirting, 4-4 14 The Toombs Tirade. Gen Toombs made one of his char acteristic little harrangues, at the con clusion of Judge Stephens’s speech in Atlanta on Thursday night of last week. He talked about bating the United States government—trampling its flag under his feet, and all that sort of bombastic foolishness, which, if it effected only himself, might be pardon able—but it comes back in barbed ar rows of Federal oppression to torment his people, and his regard for them might temper his wayward tongue with more discretion. It is to be re gretted that liis remarks have been published. They are in no sense fit for publication. They are utterly un worthy of their eloquent author—be ing irreverent, disjointed, and offensive in every respect. Gen.

Let as Rare Peace. We regret to sec indications of a determination in certain quarters to vindicate Democratic principles by running a “ straight-out ticket,” if Greeley is adopted at Baltimore.— With the lights before us, we do not see how any practical good can result from such a movement, and much mischief may grow out of it. A straight ticket will not only make doubly sure Grant’s election ; hut pro duce such bitterness as to destroy har monious action in our State and coun ty organizations, which must be pre served if the National party is lost in the Greeley folly. If Greeley is nominated at Baltimore and defeated, those Democrats who have sought to prevent the Greeley muddle must not place themselves in a position after the nomination, to be held in any sense responsible for the election of Grant, or the more woful calamity of State disorganization.— With State unity we can endure the election of a Radical President, wheth er it be Grant or £ireele>\ “ Our Impracticable People.” great Georgia Orator is fast becoming a first class scold, aud the newspapers ought to quit giving importance to his tirades by excluding them from the dignity of print. Badly Posted.—The IFafc/immt says: “ So far as this county is concerned, we know of but four men who arc op posed to endorsing Greeley, and they are all in town.” The editor is evidently a Know Nothing of the blindest sort, and he is, whether intentionally or not, convey ing a false impressiou in thus suerring at the insignificance of the anti-Gree ley feeling in Clark. We know scores of the most intelligent and patriotic Democrats, in town and country, who oppose and deplore the Greeley move ment. Public Sentiment. We have no disposition to make captions issues with our neighbor of the Watchman, but we deem it due to the intelligent gentlemen and sound Democrats, who composed the recent Clark county meeting to correct a few of the mistakes and erroneous impressions which that paper, week alter week, sees proper to convey to its readers concerning that meeting.

Democratic Meeting in Madison. ‘'Danielsville June 15th, 1872. A meeting of the Democratic party of Madison Counry was held in the Court House iu Dauicisville ou the 15th, J une, 1872. The meeting was organized by calling Judge K. E. Hitchcock to the Chair and John F. Kirk to act as Secretary. On motion, the chair appointed a Committee of five to prepare business for the meeting; consisting of I. J. Meadcrs, Gabriel Nash, G. C. Daniel, R. H. Bullock and K. M. Strickland. On motion the Committee retired for a short time, when they returned and introduced the following resolu tions. ' Resolved, 1st. That the democratic party of Madisou county stands to day upon its past record, aud for preserv ing party existence and constitutional Government, we desire the nomina tion ol a straight-out Democrat upou a democratic Platform for the next Pres ident. Resolved, 2d. That we are oppo-ed to a coalition with a Republican can didate for the presidency, believing as we do, that their success would he no remedy tor the wrongs which h ivc been heaped upon us by .-aid [tarty. Resolved, 3d. We have lull faith | iu the integrity, ability, and patriotism j of his Excellency Governor James M. ! Smith, asevinc.il in his administration | of our State affairs, and we cordially 1 recommend him fi.r re-election. Resolved, 4lh. That K. P. E'rerhert and J. F.

Resolved, 5th. That the sense of this meeting is that we claim that we areunited tothe30th Senatorial District of Georgia, and should this not meet the apptohalion of the Counties of Elbert and Oglethorpe, we would like to hear front them tqion the subject, and we take this method of notifying them of the fact. On motion of Col. Nash, the Sec retary was directed to lurnishacopy of the proceedings of this meeting to the Southern Banner and Watch ing in Athens, and the Atlanto Sun for publication.

Very few per sons attend them, and not a half a dozen vote yea or nay, as a general rule.” Our information is, that not only in Clark, but, in all the counties where meetings have been held, the purest and best citizens have taken part in them. That they have not been more largely attended has been due mainly, we believe, to the fact that the planters are busy with their crops. In the Clark meeting, the commit tee on resolutions consisted of Col. W. L. Mitchell, Dr. Price, Dr. H. H. Carlton, A. L. Mitchell Esq., and Emory Speer Esq. These gentlemen are each perhaps quite as familiar with the public sentiment of the county as the editor of the Watchman, and are in no sense “ impracticables.” We learn that four sets of resolutions were before them, including a set on the Greeley to beat Grant” line, from the editor of the Watchman. The committee agreed unanimously upon the resolution reported, and they were unanimously adopted. Possibly if the resolutions reported by the editor had been adopted, the meeting would not have appeared to him so insignificant. It is necessary to add, in reply to the assertion of the Watchman that the meeting allowed “ one anti-Greeley delegate to represent the very small faction of impracticables,” that the sentiments of the delegates in refer ence to Greeley were not known, sought to lie known by the meeting.— It was enough that the delegates are good Democrats, and that they assent ed to the resolutions adopted, one of which declares that— “ In our opinion it would be3t se cure our rights to nominate candidates of our own for President, even i£ as a matter of policy, it become necessary to leave the electoral colleges free to decide befweep Grant and Greeley, as a choice of evils, etc.” But Trbatevpr m*y be done at Balti more, if Democratic principles are maintained, and the Democratic or- endorsement of Greeley at Wahington says: “But Georgia will endorse the ticket aud her people will vote it. They are not willing to have four years more like the past four, just to gratify the whims of a few impracticable gentle men who have long since determined to “ rule or ruin,* and whose insatiable lust for power brought upon us all our woes.” We have had afti idea that the un constitutional aggressions of the aboli tionists, with Greeley at their head, had a little something to do with caus ing “ all our woes.” According to the Watchman, they were “ all’ brought about "bythelust for power of our own impracticable people." That is what Greeley has been charging, and all who have that estimate of the Confed erate cause can vote for Greeley per se —not merely to beat Grant—and might have done '-it any time iu the last ten or twelve years. If we thought such sentiments animated the Georgians who “ endorse the Greeley ticket,” we would not touch the un clean thing with a rod pole. “Come Back Racket—the Varmint’s Gone.” Mr. Hill in his Atlanta speech said that “ the Cincinnati movement has brought about the passage of the am nesty bill, the modification of the bay onet bill, and the restoration of the writ of habeas corpus^” The chief reason that has been urged, for the support of Greeley by the Democratic party, is to get rid of these oppressive measures of the Grant administration. As we are so happily rid of them in advance, about the entire stock in trade of the Greeley alliance is exhausted. It “ the varmint is gone” we might as well call back the *' Rackett,” Demo crats, who have gone off in a state of demoralized despair and see if we cant get them to follow the old trail of con stitutional princioles. Not Greeley, bnt Honesty. Mr. Hill, in his Atlanta speech, al luding to what Greeleyism has done for us said: “ Thank God, this Marshal law cm no longer be. Grant has no more porver to take away the liberties of the people by the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, than you and I have, aud that glorious result is attributable to the combination of the Democrats and the Greeley Republicans.” If Mr. Hill had said that jresult was due to the co-operation of honest reform We need make no apology for filling so much of our space with the speech of Hon. Linton Stephens. We do not. quite keep up with him in his advanced ideas ot insisting that the repeal of the oppressive measures under which 3ve suffer be made a Democratic test ques tion. We must take the best we can get, and await the verdict of a calm public opinion on the usurpations com plained of. But we rvould see the political faith of the people kept strong and pure and uncoutaminated, aud hence advise everybody to read the speech. Colonel F. Schaller. Both the letter of Colonel Schaller to the Sparta Times and Planter and his paper on “ Immigration of Capi tal aud Population to the South” are documents worthy of attentive consid eration by the people of Georgia, aud, indeed, by the people of the South gen erally. They are worthy of it from their source. Colonel Schaller, al though a foreigner, is no adventurer. A resident ef the South when the rvar began, he took up arms in our defense, and commanded, with great credit to himself, a regiment of artillery.— Since that time his attention has been largely devoted to the subject of tbe introduction of capital and labor into the South. He was chie% the author of the first immigration bill which was introduced into and rejected by the Republican Legislature of Georgia.— Afterwards the same bill was recon sidered, emasculated by cutting out its most valuable features, and passed. The State Agricultural Society, under whose auspices the original bill was introduced, disavowed it. The com missioners accomplished nothing.— The bill was repealed by the succeed ing Legislature. It is to bo feared that the bluuder of the Legislature which passed the deformed bill has affected the public mind unfavorably towards a subject of vital importance to the people of the whole South. Colooel Schuller's views in regard to it are worthy of attention, both from the man himself and the thor oughness of his acquaintance with the whole subject of immigration—a thoroughness, perhaps, not equalled in any person in the South, certainly in Georgia. ~ * * * * * * The State Agricultural.
