We would like to see a Bank Intureneeljom-
peny started. Such An Institution la a long-felt
During the late canvas, in a speech
at Clarkesville, Mr. Speer made the
surprising and ridiculous statement
that “these miserable and wretched
party conventions brought on the late
war and delluged our land with blood.”
Ah he is a polished and moat beautiful
talker, and no one was present to an*
Htrcr ids statement, the effect upon
tlie audience was telling—many of his
hearers being soldiers, while others
had lost relatives during the unnatural
strife.
But if the people had only taken an
instant to consider for themselves
they would have discovered that this
assertion was as groundless as it was
boldly made.
Every person acquainted with the
causes of Jlie late war well knows that
so far from strife being hastened by a
convention, it was a secession or “in-
Uepevdeiit” movement in the Charles-1
ton convention that lirst divided and
then overthrew the Democratic party
and caused the election of President
Lincoln, which every school hov
knows hastened hostilities between
the North and South. Had that con*
vent ion remained in tact, nnd division
prevented in the party ranks, an over
whelming success would have crown
ed the Democracy nnd there would
have been no cause for secession or
war. Then, so far from a party con
vention being responsible for that
bloodshed, it was that same Independ
ent movement that Mr. Speer Is now-
trying to organize in Georgia.
Not only the safety, but the prosper
ity of a country depends upon its best
element standing finely together and
battling for their rights and section.
Take the history of the world, and you
will sec that so long os a nation is
united they are impregnable against
the foe; when they split into factions
they soon become the prey of a united
enemy. Dome was the mistress of the
world so long as iter people worked
and acted together. Once divided she
soon fell. Likewise you can trace the
history of every country and party
since the world was young.
It is the same with the Democratic
party of the South. So long as we
stand together we arc invincible. The
day we listeu to the syren song of some
greedy oflice-seekerand allow abrcach
to lie made in our ranks, then indeed
are we annihilated and Georgia and
the South will find themselves at the
tender mercies of tho Itepubliean par
ty. And we all know what can be
expected in that event. Bullock’s
administration is yet freslt in the
.minds of our people. They know that
Dadieal government to them means a
robbed treasury, usurious taxation,
negro rule ami party tyranny.
Therefore we say to our readers In
the Mb district, do not desert your col
ors in this hour when your vote is
most needed to avert the new Radical
raid to be made upon us. So long as
we are united there is nought to fear;
divided, our overthrow is easy. If there
be wrongs perpetrated by nmbitiou s
men in our ranks let us regulate them
within our own household, and not
call in the aid of on avowed onemy to
Democracy ,as mediator.
When we sec our national political
enemy, the Republican party, split
asunder, then we enn look with some
countenance upon a movement look-
ng to the dismemberment of Democ
racy and the organization of a new
party upon a more liberal and advanc
ed platform; but so long as the party
of the North remains in tact nnd as
impregnable as the Rock of Gilfraltar,
we shall advocate n solid South and a
solid Democracy to combat it, and
avert the blows thrust at our liberties
and institutions; and we trust to God
nnd tlie justice of the American peo.
pie for its eventual overthrow. To
day tl.e Organized Democracy is the
only thing thnt stands between tho
South and a degrading despotism
The Mississippi river, below Memphis, Is thir

the consequence.

OUR SOUTHERN FARMERS.
Ill every Southern newspaper the
Southern farmer is basted front and
rear, as being tho cause of the hard
times—especially of being the direct
cause of the scarcity and high price of
provisions. Perhaps no one will deny
thnt they make enough bread to sup
ply them eight months out of the
twelve, but they are spoken of os If
they were absolutely “broadless.”
During the many years this tirade of
abuse lias been lieaped upon tho
Southern farmers, not one line has
been written about the New England
States for failure to make a support.
Let us look and see how they are off
for bread. Vermont makes enough
grain per annum to bread her popula
tion 58 days—this is tho best of all of
them; Rhode Island, New Hampshire
mid-Maine each comes in with enough
to do 3 weuks—21 days; Connecticut
stances up with only two days rations
and a breakfast over, while Massor
chuHctts, poverty stricken as she is,
has only n breakfast yearly, with i
dust over to make gruel for dinner.
Here is a field for Southern editorial
missionary labor, and we hope to see
these noble ink-slingers come down
to business.

Lawshe denies that God had any hand in onr
manufacture. Well, perhaps not; bqtcan the
Southron editor deny that Mr. Speer and the
Radical party bavo been the making of the po
litical monstrosity that turns tho crank of the
Independent hand-organ at Gainesville?
Perhaps iris not generally known that the
Independent party was first brought into promi
nence by Col. Thornton breakfasting on par
tridges for 30 consecutive days. We suggest tha t
this organisation place a qnall aa the device on
their campaign banner next fall.

“MR. SPEER AND THE COALITION-
'The Washington correspondent or
the Atlanta Constitution says: What
is called tlie Syndicate, formed to dis
pose of Georgia offices os will best ad
vance tiie interests of the coalition,
consists of General Lougstreet, James
Atkins, A. N. Wilson, C. W. Arnold,
H. P. Farrow and Walter Johnson. ^
These gentlemen claim to repre
sent the liberal movement in Geor
gia. Mr. Speer and Dr. Felton are
heartily co-operating. It is reported
on good authority that Dr. Felton has
written to the President, asking the
removal of Clark, and that before he
made ills Augusta speech he had some
assurance thnt his advice on tlilsques-
tlon would be heeded. Sonio of the
Republicans in tlie Seventh district,
Rearing of tho Doctor's activity in
this aff’air, have written the President
'that he does not speak their senti
ments and that they want CJsrk re
