The Late Elections,
Which occurred on Tuesday of last week, and
the result of which we publish elsewhere, will
inspire the friends of constitutional liberty with
renewed hope. The result has exceeded the
anticipations of the most sanguine, and now
encourages the hope that the coming Novem
ber elections will add"*largely’ to~tbe Demo
cratic strength in the House of Reptesentatives.
The New York lForW, in a jubilant article
in reference to the splendid triumphs in Indi
ana, Ohio, &c., says:
The uews of this magnificent Democratic
triumph, presagiug the wider and still more
complete victories of the Democracy in Novem
ber, will send joy to the hearts of millions in
every part of our land. It will breathe new
life into the disordered industries and the sink
ing commerce of the Atlantic States; it will
inspire with fresh courage the despairing ag
riculture of tbo mighty West, robbed so long
by rag money and a ruinous tarifl of all tbe
rewards of steady labor under benignant sea
sons upon a teeming soil; it will staunch the
bleeding wounds and bind up the shattered
limbs and pour measureless joy into tho bro
ken heart of the prostrate South, now at length
ere long to be restored to the Union of States,
and restored to the just equality of their self-
government, the libortics and laws."
Tiie Chattanooga Convention,
Which every body knows was instituted for
the purposo of manufacturing “ cock and ball
stories,” concerning alleged “ outragos,” met
according to appointment, and, from tho re
ports of its proceedings which have conio to
hand, wo aro satisfied entered faithfully upon
the discharge of its duties.
It is stated that tho reading of documents
in regard to reported outrages was finally dis
pensed with—the conspirators themselves hav
ing become disgusted with tho extravagancy
of tho reports. They will nil be printed, how
ever, and industriously circulated, as election
eering documents.
Lot the people of tho South, in tho mean
time “ keep the noiseless tenor ot their way,”
obeying thb laws and attending to their own
business, and tho time will come when even
Fanaticism itself will be compelled to admiro
their noble bearing.

Athens Represented iu the Chattanooga Con
volition.
It would seem by the following that our city
had a representative, in tho •• pow-wow ” at
Chattanooga. We aro sorry that Mat Davis,
who has heretofore been regarded as a very
rcapoctablo colored man, suffered himself to be
caught in such a crowd, llcro is what ho is
reported to have done :
“ Mr. Davis, a yonag man from Athens, Ga.,
introduced tbe following resolutions, which
were roforred:
[Verbatim,]
*' Where as now a bill pending Congress
known as tho Civil Rights bill, and whero as
tbe Hon. A. H. Stephens, Representative from
Georgia has seen fit to say in a speech in thar
Honorable body that tho Colored Citizens of
Georgia were not in favor of tho Civil Rights
bill, and where as that Hon. Gentleman has
failed to speak tho sentiments or desires of tho
Colored Citizens of Georgia.
“ Therefore bo it resolved. That wo, the
Colored Citizens of tho reconstructed States in
convention assembled do endorse the Civil
Rights kill believing that it win give protec
tion to our wives and daughters on the public
carriers from insults by smoking with “ Tobac
co and other indecent treatments, wo implore
Congress of the Unitod States to pass tbo Civil
Rights bill.”
Now, so far as the matter complainod of is
concerned, wo have just this to say. It may
be remedied without any action on tho part
of Congress ; and it is due to tho colored peo
plo, if they are charged tho sarao prico, that
they should havo as comfortable accommoda
tions on tbo railway trains as the whites; but
it does not follow that they should be indis
criminately mixed. Tho railroad authorities
can arrange that matter very easily. As to
tbo complaint about being excluded from cer
tain cars, that was very successfully answered
by Senator Hill, who showed that ho a.id all
other whito men who had til misfortune to
travel without a lady under bis protection,
had been excluded by most railroad authori
ties from tbo lady’s car. Hi is has been tbe
experience of all travellers, from the bumblost
to tbo highest in office, and yet wo have never
hoard of an effort to bring the matter before
Congress. These distinctions among whites
create no uneasiness among tho fanatics. It
is all right, so far as tho whites aro concerned
—but, tako caro, if they operate upon “ tho
nation's wards,” who aro as sacred in tho oyes
of Radicalism as crocodiles wore to the an
cient Egyptians! If a colored person is in
convenienced by railroad, church, theatrical
or scholastic, regulations, tho aid of the courts
nau3t bo invoked, and if they are powerless.
Congress must intervene and remedy tho mat
ter by “adequuto legislation!” Was such
tomfoolery ever heard of outsido of a mad-
houso f
The Elections.
Indianapolis, Oct 16.—From the host cs
timates made to night tho Legislature will
stand : Senators holding over. Republicans
16, Democrats 8 ; elected Republicans 8, Dem
ocrats 12. Independents 3, doubtful 3. House
—Democrats 51, Republicans 49, Independ
ents 9.
Later and official returns change tbe result
in the First, Eighth and Ninth Districts. In
tbo First, B. C. Fuller, Democrat, is elected
by 400 majority, lu tbo Eighth District M.
C. Hunter, Republican, is re-elected by 1!»3
majority. In the Ninth F. ,1. Cason, Repub
lican, lias 361 majority. In the .Seventh (Indi
anapolis) District Frank Sauders. Democrat,
has a majority of 565. The delegation will
stand eight Democrats to five Republicans :
Democratic gain, five members. The official
vote in twenty-seven counties gives tbe Dem
ocrats a net gain in tbo State ticket, as com
pared with tbo vote for Governor in 1872, of
4.753. The majority in tho State will reach
15,000.
Terra Haute Ot. 16.—Iluntei, the Re
publican candidate, was elected to Congress.
THE OHIO VICTORY.
Columbus, Oct. 16.—At the Democratic
headquarters up to 11, p. m., official and un
official returns have been received fiom 78
counsies, which show a net Democratic gaiu
over last year of 17,012. This leaves 10 coun
ties yet to hear from. Granting these coun
ties to have given tho samo majorities as last
year the Democratic majority iu the State wilt
be about 18,000. It is thought, however, that
the official returns will swell the majority to
20,000.

Gathering Crops.
Onr planting friends have been blessed with
fine weather for picking cotton and gathering
other antnmnal crops, with the exception of a
few days. Upland corn, potatoes and peaa
have dono well, and turnips give promise of
doing well. It is a great pity that onr farmers
do not pay more attention to these crops and
to catting and caring crab grass, which has
grown luxuriantly the past season, and thou
sands of acres of which have been suffered to
go to destruction, when onr planters will pay
82.25 per cwt. for inferior bay next Spring.

Colonization.
The favorite hobby of Judge O'Neal, tho
Radical candidate for Congress in this Dls-
trict, (tvho opposes tho civil rights bill and
still acts with tho Radical party !) is tho colo
nization of tho negroes in some of the Territo
ries, Liberia, or soniowhere else. In short, he
wants to get rid of them.
Did it ever occur to the honorable gont.
that, being made citizens of the United States
by the constitutional amendments, there is no
power in the land which can undertake to col
onize them any whero without their consent f
Does not Judge O'Neal know that they have
just as much right to remain in Georgia as be
has ?
Suppose his colonization scheme were car
ried into effect, and all the negroes removed
from Georgia, how many votes would Judge
O'Neal gett
And, by the way, will the colored people be
very keen to vote for tho man who proposes
to expel them from tho country f They are
not like tho Indians—subject to removal by
the Government; but, being citizens, have tho
right to stay as long as they pleaso, or go
when and where they may see fit. Tho Judge
was surely reckoning without his host when
ho sprung this now issue.

Who Is He 5 IVhere does He Live I
A New York Radical paper publishes a let
ter from “ a prominent, colored man of the
Ninth Congressional District of Georgia,”
which begins as follows :
“ I sit this cloudy and rainy night and ex-
pect tho band of midnight assassins at any mo
ment. Tho colored people generally have
been warned not to take part in the forthcom-
iug.eiection of this Stato by the Democrats.
They state as their reasons that ‘ there will
be fighting on that day,' and if they are there
they will bo killed.’ I am teaching a coun
try school and could inform you of many facts.
I can say to you that no colored man breathes
tbe air of his Divine maker without feeling
himsolf a debtor to tho Ku-Klux for life long
enough so to do.”
Now, the above, which is as false as any
story over concocted by diabolical wickedness,
was either written hv a negro school teacher
or some lying white man. Who is the author!
What negro teacher has been conducting him
self in such manner its to reasonably fear per-
sonal violence 1 Who ever heard of any Ku-
klux in the Ninth Congressional district, with
tho exception of a crowd which, it is alleged,
visited Alf Richardson one night f We think
the epistle is probably from some sneaking,
cowardly whito man, who attempts to shun re-
sponsibility by packing off his lies on a negro
school teacher. Wo are sure there is no teach-
er or negro of any sort in this District who has
any fear of Ku-klux.
Mortuary.
Among the recent deaths announced are two
noted Georgia politicians—Col. James Gard
ner, of Augusta, and Hon. Marshall J. Well
born, of Colambns. Tho former camo near
being nominated for Govornor some years ago,
and the latter gentleman was a member of
Congress before the war, a Judge of the Supc
rior Court, &c.

Speaking at Carnesrille.
Capt. McMillan having failed to fill his ap
pointment at Carnesville, owing to sickness in
hit family, Col. Emory Speer addressed tbe
people when tbe court adjourned at noon on
Tuesday. We did not have the pleasure of
bearing his speech, bat beard it highly spoken
of by nnmbers who were present. We learn
that he completely skinned Jadge O'Neal, tbe
Radical candidate. Mr. Speer is a very able
aod forcible speaker, and generally does full
Jostloe to tbe occasion.
On Wednesday, Col. J. J. Tnrnbnll. of Banks,
addressed tbe people at noon in tbe court
house. We beard only tbe latter part of bis
speech. He is a very fluent speaker and is
rarely equalled by men of his age. He too
gave tbe Radical candidate a gentle robbing
down.
We learn that recently at Homer be ever
lastingly lifted O’Neal “out.of his boots” In
rofaronco to his pet colonization scheme,
large numbor or tho colored people were pres
ent, and became thoroughly disgusted* with
O’Neal, niter bearing him, and Turnbull’s dis-
section of his pluu to get rid of the negroes,
Mr. Stephens and Mr. Grant.
No matter where Alexander Stophens speaks
nor when, whether on tbe stump or io private,
there comes to tbe public that inevitable apol
ogy for, and defense of, President Grant.
Tbo people are becoming quite tired of this.
Grant is an enemy to tbe people of tbe South.
He is a willing and vicious tool of tbe domi
nant party. If there is.ono trace of tolerance
or of pity, in tho whole course of his recon
struction policy, wo do not now recall it. A
uniform brutality has characterized its action,
from the beginning to tbe end. And tbe peo
ple of tbe South, especially the people of tbe
Eighth District, are filled with a just resent
ment, and an unconquerable aversion to this
tyrant and his administration.
If Mr. Stephons represents the unanimous
opinion of his people, ho will present a sharp
and determined opposition to this Administra
tion which has dealt out nothing but degrada
tion to his people. It will not do for him to
content himself with able, but > discursive argu
meats on tbe departure that is made from Con
stitutional government, and at the same time
apologize for tbe very instrument tbrongh
which it is made. Wbat the people need is a
severe arraignment of the present Executive;
continuous attacks upon tbe present Adminis
tration ; stern protests against its infamies;
eternal opposition to its existence.
If Mr. Stephens can not give them tbis, we
suggest, in all deference, that it might bo well
for him to say so at once, and plainly.—At

HAVE YOU TRIED
JURUBEBA?
ARE YOU
Weak, Nervous, or Debilitated?
Are you so Languid that any exertion requires more
of an effort than yon feel capable of making?
Then try JURUBEBA. the wonderful touio and in.
vigorator, which aots so beneficially on tho secretive
otgans as to impart vigor to ail tbe vital forces.
It is no alcobolie appetizer, which stimulates for a
short time, only to let the sufferer fell to a lower depth
of misery, but it is n vegetable tonic, acting directly
on tbe liverand spleen.
It regulates the Bowels, quiets the nerves, and gives
such a healthy tone to the whole system as to soon
make tbe invalid feel like a new person.
Its operation is not violent, bnt is characterized by
great gentleness: the patient experiences no sudden
eliange, no marked results, bnt gradually his troubles
“Fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And sileutly steal away.”
This is no new and untried discovery, but has been
long used with wonderfal remedial results, and is pro
nounced by the highest medieal authorities, “the most
powerful tonic and alterative known.’’
Ask yonr druggist for it.
