The oitiseav' ticket is selested with no refer
ence to party alliances, or party obligations ;
bat with the sole view of getting a Mayor and
Board of Aldermen who ooold manage the city
government wise and well The questions
asked are, is the man a safe one ? Is he in fa
vor ef a system of Public Schools ? Is he iu
favor of railroads oonoentering at this point ?
Does he favor an economical management of
the city affairs ? Ia he in favor of water
works f These end s few other questions are
the important ones, and no matter what else
a man may think, if he carry out these points
he is the man for Mayor or Alderman.
We ask every voter to examine this ticket,
and, if it meets their approval, vote for it
The Democrats are in a muddle. Neither
wing can promise anything. All they seek is
to eleet their man, even though the oity go to
the dogs. During tho whole campaign they
have discussed men not measures. Persons!
favoritism has irretrievably split the party.—
It has promised nothing. It has not even
canvassed the great questions affecting our
local interests. They do not even i
know that momentous obligations will rest
upon the next Mayor and Council They
seom to know only, that the party is divided
as far as tha East is from the West, and eaoh
faction is intent on running in its man.
We, as an advocate of the citizens' ticket,
have uo such trivial matter to bias us.
sopport only such men os wo know are in foil
sympathy with the great onward movements of
the age, and not only are they in sympathy
with them, but they have the vim and ability
to carry them out.
This is the ticket to vote for.
It is your ticket, merchant, and yours, law
yer, aud yours, doctor, and yours, mechanio,
and yours, laborer, and yours, rich and poor
man. It is everybody’s ticket.
Vote for it.
The Intelligencer
Does not interfere with the business of other
people, and will not allow others any longer to
attend to the business of tho Intelligencer.
We are able and competent to attend to ogr
own business, and wo expect to do so Those
who think different had better let ns alone.
We hare been raised in the school where
the doctrine of non-intervention was taught,
and we believe it to be a good and wholesome
dootrinc, and will stand by it—remembering
that it works both ways. Let us alone and we
will let "you” alone, otherwise, we will defend,
if necessary, unto death.^-Intelligencer, 30th.

great deal to move old Jo veto wrath aud in

beloved brethren of the Democratic press.—
The fact is, our love embraces the entire con
tinent ; bat we must have a little fuu, uow and
then, particularly while such a war is ragiDg
between the puro and undefiled Demooraoy.
Do, dear brethren, do let us have peace!
pm Go to the polls early this morning,
cast your vote for the citizens’ ticket, headed
by Mr. Markham, aud then spend a little time
in telling your friends what you have done.
Tho watchword of both wings of the
united Democracy is "no compromise.” 8o
much the better for the citizens’ ticket, and
the future of Atlanta.
entitled to a vote oar
Baotioft 1903 of the Cod# of Georgia contains
an oath which must be taken, if the
of an election require it, and which fully ex
pounds the qualification of • voter in this
«. We quote Ike oath vauns :
l swear that I have attained to the ege of
twenty-one years; that I am a citizen of the
United States, snd have resided for the last
two years in this State, and for the last six
months in this county, and have considered
and claimed It sa my home, and paid all legal
Uxos which have been required c# me and
whioh I have had an opportunity of paying,
agreeable to law, for the year preceding this
election."
On page II of tha Oity Oode, in the acts of
incorporation, we find it stated
person shall be entitled to vote at said (oity)
electlou, except be be duly qualified to vote
for members of the Legislature, and shall be
citizens residing iu the corporation limits of
said city. ”
Here we have all the qualifications ei an alee-
tor clearly laid down. To vote at this election,
a raau, if required to do so, most swear that ha
ie a ciiir.en of the United State*, has been a
citizen of this State two years, of this county
six months, reside within the corporation
limits of this city, and that he has paid his
taxes for 1808. There ie no law that requires
him to have paid his taxes for the present
year. The law says /or ike year preceding the
election, and the law means what it aays.
A careful understanding of this matter will
admit many legal votes whioh otherwise will
be exoluded. We have oited the whole law
regulating the qualifications of eleotors. If
anything else is produoed, no attention should
bo paid to it.

A Cettes Factory.
Mr. Thompson, an energotic Northern gen
tlcman, is now ia the city, and ia in tha interest
of the Cotton Factory, the establishment of
which is contemplated by Mr. W®. Markham.
We hope to see this great enterprise succeed,
for it will be of greater benefit, ospeoially to the
working classes, than any other enterprise that
we oaa imagine. It will give steady and profita
ble employment to men, women, boys and girls,
and be a vast help to the entire oity, adding to
its population as wall as to its general revenue.
With the proceeds of Mr. Markham’s splendid
city property invested in sueh a factory, the
publie can scarcely estimate the good that will
be derived therefrom. It will be but a con
tinuation of his efforts to build up Atlanta and
contribute to its prosperity and wealth, and he
is eertain of sucoesa commensurate with his
moat ardent expectations. Whatever ha con
tributes to the growth of the oity is solid and
substantial, adds to its wealth, and gives it
dignity and importance abroad.

DEMOCRATIC U1TITY.
How HrsstlfrU Thlsg It 1st
The following correspondence was circulat
ed upon the streets yesterday morning:
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 22, I860.
Hon. William Jtzzard ;
Dear Sib—You claim to be the Demooratio
nominee for next Mayor of Atlanta. I think I
have been fairly nominated for the same office,
and iu accordance with the usages of the Dem
ocratic party. I desire harmony in the Dem
ocratic party. I therefor* propose that yon
select three of your friends and I select three
of my friends, aud the six thus chosen choose
three more, sad the niue chosen as above
named say who shall withdraw from tite race
for Mayor and support the other—yon or my
self. Yours truly, Jae. F. Axjkxandkk.
Atlanta, 29th November, 1869.
Dr. J. b. Alexander:
Dzab Sib—Yonr communication of this
date has been received, and I hastei^to re
ply. I um now and ever have been dis
posed to do auything iu my power for the
sake of harmony, but os things uow stand, I
do not fsel prepared to give you an answer
upon a matter involving such important
salts without a little time for reflection,
will answer your proposition early in the day
to-morrow. Yours, very respectfully,
William Ezzabp.
Atlanta, November 29, 1869.
lion. William Ezzard:
Dzab Sib—I addressed you a note this after
noon, proposing the appointment of friends to
decide whioh one of us should withdraw from
the canvass for Mayor of the oity.
You agreed when my letter was delivered, to
give an answer by six o clock t. u.
At six and a half o’clock p. m., I received a
note from you, stating that you would answer
my proposition early in the day to-morrow.
Wednesday being the day of election, (and
therefore one day only intervening.) I had
hoped and expected that you would have
promptly answered my communication.
I now respectfully request that you notify
me, without any farther delay, whether you
accept or reject my proposition.
Yours very truly,
Jamzs F. Alexander.
You shall have my reply by 10 o’clook to
morrow. William Ezzard.
10 O’Clocx, Tuxsdat, Nor. 30, 1869.
By a note, just received from Judge Ezzard,
he rejects my proposition. De moor ate of At
lanta, I submit the above correspondence,
and ask if I have not done all that any Demo
crat can do to harmonize the parly?
Jas. F. Alexander.
From tho above it will be seen that the
split iu the Demooratio ranks is irrecoueilable.
There mutt be two candidates, and the people
will embrace the exigency of party aspirants
to elevate the citizens’ ticket to the offices of
Mayor and Aldermen. Be sharp now, all you
who want a good and safe man for Mayor aud
a good board of Aldermen for next year. Vote
the citizens’ ticket. Every man on it is a
good and safe one.
Letter from Mr. Markham.
To the Citizens of Atlanta:
Having been solicited by many of my friends
of both politioal parties to become a candidate
for the office of Mayor for the ensuing year,
have consented to do so. I am not insensible
to the wants of the city and of the arduous du
ties that will devolve upon the Mayor and
Council in the coming year, but I assure you
if elected, I will do all in my power to
promote the interest and future prosperity of
the city. Very Respectfully,
Wm. Markham.
