THE GAZETTE. i —i Wednesday, July 5, 1870. Tilden and Hendricks This is the ticket which the St. Loins Convention presents to the Democrats of the nation for President and Vice- President. Though Tildep was not our first choice for the head of ticket, yet, in view of the fact that the convention by a two-third vote declared his nomination necessary for the success of the party, We will cheerfully accord him our feeble support, with the earnest hope that ho may prove the champion to overcome the South’s most bitter enemy—the Radical party. The candidate for Vice-President is a host in himself, and, Mr. Hendricks adds no little to the strength of the ticket. The Democratic ticket, unliko that of the Radicals, is composed of able and well known politicians, men who go before the country with records, and with records clear of spot or blemish. Their opponents are comparatively ob scure, with no records of or bad. There is nothing to prevent the warm est support of the ticket by the Demo cratic party, and there is much to invite the support of those, not of the party, who desire reform in the administration of the government and to redeem it from the corruption and dishonor which the party in power has brought upon it. Bound to Beat Him. All the clap-traps of desperate politi cians is being used by the opponents of Gen. Colquitt to defeat his nomination. No man that has done all ho is charged with ought to live, much loss to aspire to one of the highest offices in tho gift of the people of Georgia. We have known men hung who deserved such a fate less than Colquitt, if ho has done all tho things charged against him. With tho motto, “The end justifies the means,” his enemies have entered the field to defeat him, and defeat him they will if within their power to do so. With a noble 10 cord as a tried soldier in the war, and a hearty worker to build up our wasto places ever since, bis friends aro not ashamed to support him, and they will support him cordially until ho triumphs over the rings and cliques arrayed against him. Three or Four. When that little faction who wroto to Gov. Johnson to solicit him to become a candidate for Governor, stated that there woro but three or four pre eminent men in tho State, did they—after Gov. Johnson—find the remaining pre emi nents among the bona lido signers of that letter, or aro they only to be found among that littlo band which they term “And many others Georgia’s chances are small indeed to rocovor from tho ef fects of war <iu<l panic, stringent money and low prices for cotton, if sho has only threo or four men worthy to do battle in her behalf. Such disgusting sycophancy will make moro enemies for Gov. Johnson than friends. Elbert County for Colquitt. Wojdeem it perfectly safe to say that Elbert will send to the Gubernatorial Convention n delegation plodged to the support of Colquitt. No one in the county has anything against Gov. John son—he has the respect and esteem of all—but our people are resolved that no faction or cliquo shall dictate to them how or for whom they shall voto or sup port for position. If Gov. Johnson wishes to retain his good character, it would be well for him to yield not too readily to those whose only aim is to gratify personal spleen or ambition. The St. Louis Convention. Tlio Convention nominated Tilden on the second ballot, the first ballot giving Tilden 403£ votes, and Hendricks, liis principal opponent, 133.}. On the first ballot the Georgia delegation voted 16 for Bayard, 5 for Tilden, and 1 for Han cock. On the second ballot Tilden made such gains that before the announcement of the vote changes were made so as to make his nomination certain. Georgia, On this ballot voted fifteen for Tilden and ssven for Bayard. The nomination was received with the rapturous applause. .“The Spontaneous, Unsolicited Movement." The following counties have selected delegates and declared their preference for Governor; For Colquitt —Columbia, Ware, Dough erty, Lee, Clarke, Mitchell, Muscogee, Echols (1), Morgan. Total, 19 votes. For Hardeman—Echols (1), Fierce, Spalding, Irwin. Total, 7 votes. For James—Fulton. Total, 6 votes. For Johnson—McDuffie. Total, 2 votes. All of which shows unanimity and spontanicty in a remarkable dogreo. Not Against Johnson. One of Elbert county’s most popular Citizens declares he will support Gen. Colquitt, although he preferred Gov. Johnson over all others. He does this, he says, because of the character of the letter addressed to Johnson inviting him to become a candidate for Governor. He thinks Gov. Johnson should not have noticed such a letter, or if he did, only to rebuke the writers. We feel no hesitation in denying the Statement that Gen. Colquitt, when asked who was to pay for the free car riages and drinks Used in Atlanta, hung bis head and gave Ho reply. Colquitt has already stated that these means were resorted to by his friends in opposition to his known wishes. This is only an other trick resorted to by his enemies to defeat him, and shows the desperate fctraits to which they resort- OUR WASHINGTON IHETTEIR. FROM OUK EEGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Washington, D. C., June 2G, 1876. There was little ot interest transacted in either House of Congress on Saturday excepting the passage of a bill to repair Pennsylvania Avenve. And that indeed is only interesting to the tax payers of the city and the Railroad that travers es that street. To them it is very interesting in a pecuniary point of view, as it will cost them heavily to pay their allotted proportion. Mr. Sayler of Ohio on Saturday was elected Speak er pro tem. of the House, vice Mr. Cox, who was absent, having gone to St. Louis. This will make Mr. Sayler Speaker until Mr. Kerr resumes his duties, and should he die or resign (neither of which it is to be hoped will take place) it will go a long way towards making Mi. Sayler Speaker for the next session. The city ,is full of strangers and the streets look lively. The most prominent topic is the anticipated action of the St. Louis Convention. It is a recognized fact, that while the citizens of Washington have no voice in the selection of a President, they are perhaps, more immediately concerned than the people of any other city, hence the excitement that obtains here during every campaign among local politicians. From present appearances there does not appear that self-denial on the party of prominent aspirants at St. nouis, which should characterize those who have the success of party principles at heart, and feel that in disseminating those prin ciples they will be serving the best interests of their country. This one, that one, or the other must take the second place on the ticket. Oh ! yes, so and so, and so and so, wound be certain of election ; but we must change the order of their names. Oh no, cur man|first or not at all. Now talk like this wont do. Let it be known at St. Louis that the onice seeks the man and not the man the office, and when the representatives of the Democratic party there assembled, shall declare or_intimate its preference for one to fill a certain position, let us hope that all personal or local considerations will be at once thrown aside, and that the party designated will at once avow himself ready to serve his party and thus benefit his country. There will bo other elec tions to-take placs in coming years, which will afford ample opportunity for such scif-abnega tion to find its reward. The ‘‘Morning News,” argues very conclusive, ly that the recent order issued from the War Department discontinuing the military division of the South has a far deeper significance than appears on its face. It, is understood to be the initiation of a plan designed to secure the elec toral votes of Albania, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi for the Republican candidates These four States will now be under the direct military control of Lieutenant-General Sheridan, who can be depended upon to carry out any design conceived at this point The recent in terview of Louisiana Radical politicians with the President was in connection with this plot. Such of the Marshals and District Attorneys in the States named as cannot be depended on to carry out their share of the undertaking will be removed and their places filled by more pliant tools. The Secretary will stretch his powers to the utmost verge, and troops will bo posted where they can best serve party purposes. Del aware Republicans are not at all pleased with the President’s choice of anew District Attor ney for them. Their principal organ the Wil mington Commercial calls the appointment of Fisher scandalous, and adds, “What influence could have brought it about can only be con jectured. It the appointment is to stand, then Babcock should resume his former place, and Belknap go into the War Department again.” Fisher has not tho support of the Republican party of this State, nor the respect and confi dence of the people, ami after his well known career in Washington, his appointment is an insult. I>km. Dove’s Cree, July 2d, 187 G. Dear Me.: Having attended the re view of the pupils of Dove’s Creek Academy, which took place on Friday, the 22d of Juno. I deem it nothing amiss to send you a short report of the educational interest and progress of Prof. It. H. Glenn’s school. Ho anticipated having a public exam ination during the latter part of the present month, but owing to the recent unprecedented heavy floods that proved so fatal to tho growing crops, a number of his pupils were necessitated to remain at homo, and enter the farm to again plant the crops. Being thus situated, at his special request a sufficient number of his pupils remained in school a few days in 01 der that ho might call in the patrons and have a review. The classes, most of whom were small, were examined most thoroughly during tho day, and the manner in which they acquitted themsolvos would have done credit to pupils far more advanced in age and of schools of much higher grade. We will make special mention of some of the smaller pupils, though omiting names, that acquitted themselves with great credit indeed, both to themselves and the Professor. They had only been to school about sixty days in all, and could read intelligibly in the Bible, could refidily add in simple addition, which was fully demonstrated on the blackboard, besides exhibiting an equal amount of proficiency in speling and writing, in fact fhero was no exception to a first-class examination during the day. Prof. Glenn has fully demonstrat ed to all who has given him an oppor tunity by their presence not at this re view, but at his former examinations, that he not only knows what to teach, but has a very efficient method of im parting what he knows to the rising youtii, lyhich aro two very important re quisites in Summing np tho proficiency of a teacher. He has, when all aro in attendance, about twenty-five scholars, some few from the counties of Madis in and Ogle thorpe. Upon the whole I must say that the day passed off very pleasantly, as the manner in whicli the pupils underwent their examination tended greatly to whilo away the dull feelings of the spec tator otherwise incident on such occas ions. Yours gratefully, Visitor. Tin! Grand’ Skchet op Beauty is Health. The secret of health is tbe proper quantity of wholesome, nutritious food* This can never be done when the liver docs not act its part. It is the great driving wheel in the mechanism of men, and when it is out of order, the whole or ganization become deranged, and fever, dyspep sia, sick headache, constipation, jaundice, bili ous colic, kidney disease and general debility ensues. To restore the normal functions of the liver and impart that beauty, which always at tends a healthy, robust constitution. Dr.Tutt’s Vegetable Liver Pills are conscicntnously rec ommended. They are designed -solely for the disordered liver and the disease which it pro duces. They are not a cure-all, but iu the cases mentioned they rarely t'ver fail to effect a cure.

HART COUNTY DEPARTMENT. | BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. HARTWELL, 7TT7TT7T77 July 3, IS7G. THE GAZETTE has now the largest CIRCULATION IN HaRT COUNTY OF ANY OTHER PAPER. Rainfall for the past week was 1.63 inches. Average temperaturo 77 de grees. Crops are in a fine condition where they have been properly worked. Rain for tbe last week we think has been general all over tho county. Cotton looks well, and healthy but is generally small, and from all appearances now is fully two weeks behind last year. We have not heard of any blooms as yet. McCurry’s Thresher. This mammoth concern, which is out threshing all the threshers in this coun ty, is doing a fine business. Last week in threo days it threshed 700 bushels of grain, and in that time moved about 20 timos. We think this yield speaks well for tho grain crop of this county, and shows that it is turning out finely in spite of the bad weather we have had. Died, On tho 29th ult., at his residence in this county, Mr. W. L. Cornog, after an ill ness of over a month. He was one of the first citizens of this county and was beloved by all who knew him ; he leaves a large number of friends who deeply and sicerely mourn his loss. He was buried at Providence church on Friday evening. His funeral was preached by Rev. W. T. Norman, a large congregation being in attendance. Tho Fic-Nio. The festivity advertised to come eff here last Saturday was a failuro and did not come off. We - are hardly able to give a reason for the same; but suppose there was something wanting in the or ganization of the concern. Wc have been blamed for inserting the notice, but say this in extenuation, that whon ever a respectable party furnishes us with a notice we shall certainly publish the same, and if his notice fails it is no fault of ours. Funeral Sermon. The funeral sermon of Hiram Brown, M. D., who died several months ago in Hall county, will be preached at Holly Springs church next Sunday, by Rev. Asa Duncan. Dr. Browuwas born in Elbert county, and was about 80 years old at the time of his death. He at one time, it is said, had the largest and most lucrative practice in Jail this country. He removed from this to Hall county a number of years ago, where he leaves a family and large number of relatives. How to Amuse the Children.— Patents are often at a loss to find amusement for the young people, which will at the same time, instruct their minds, cultivate tho taste, and give them an appreciation for the beautiful. Anew and interesting art has recently been introduced to the public called “Decalconmnie,” or Transfer Pictures. These Pictures are printed on prepared paper, in many colors and sizes, of almost every variety of subject, such as Heads, Landscapes, Flowers, Autumn Leaves, Insects, Comic Figures, &c., which can be instantly and permanently transferred to almost any article one may wish to ornament, such as fans, Work Boxes, Vases, Flower Pots, Furniture and vari ous articles of household use. When transfer red these pictures, in beauty of color and ar tistic design, rival the most beautiful painting. The art is easi.y acquired and children even soon become experts ; the process of decorating articles with these pictures? is novel, ingenious and highly interesting to young and old. The manufacturers, of these pictures, Messrs. J. L. Patten k Cos., 162 William Street, New York, offer to send, by mail postpaid, ten selected samples of these pictures, full instructions for transfeiring the same, with 24 page catalogue, for ten cents, or for fifty cents they will send one hundred attractive pictures. ’ [m!7,’76.tf IIART COUNTY ADVERTISE MTS C.
