THE GAZETTE. c— — - Wednesday, July 26, 1876. The Convention. At tlie call of the Democratic Execu tive Committee of Elbert county, a Con vention was held in Elbcrton on the 22d inst., for “the purpose of electing dele gates to the gubernatorial, congressional and senatorial conventions, and to de cido whether nominations should be made for either representative or county officers.” The convention had the power to nom inate candidates for representative or county officers on that day or fix a lime for such nominations, as they thought proper. The nomination of a candidate for representative was determined for that day, and after prolonged balloting the choice of the convention was given to Capt. James J. Burch a very worthy gentleman, and one who w.ll fill the po siti >n very creditably to the county. So much for the nomination. A part of the proceedings of the con vention has been objected to by some of the people—the extent of which we cannot determined—and even some of the delegates to that convention. On the eighth ballot, when the vote stood, Clark 18, Oglesby 17, a numbered bal lot without any name upon it was found in the hat. The friends of Clark con tended that he was elected. Some of the more prudentjof his supporters, how ever, proposed to waive the question and take another ballot. This was acquiesced in without an objection in the conven tion. Had this same prudence been •practiced at the close of the conven tion, the result would have been the same •without the objection to its action that we hear of. The convention having determined to vote for representative by ballot it should havo continued to do so ; but the action by which the nomination was finally made looked like an effort to choke off any further candidates. We say it could bear such;a construction, although we acquit *the leader of tbe move ment of any such intention. With the fact before the leaders in that convention that there are a large number of citizens of Elbert opposed to nominations except when it is necessary, it behooved them to See tb it that nothing was done which c ould be prevented on which to hang a single objection. The way the nomin atiou was finally made—by acclamation —is open to objection it seems to some, whereas a little more prudence would have prodilced the same results, with no ground for complaint. The candidate chosen is unobjectiona ble, and as an individual we shall sup port him. However the nomination was brought about, it is the action of a con vention of the people, and until that ac tion is repudiated by the party, all good members of the Democratic party are bound by it. It will not do for dele gates to that convention to say now that it did wrong unless he fought that wrong within the body. Objections should have been made promptly at the time; it is too late now to make them. —As a resu ; we <lqq=- fidently b hat no more nomina tions will be made by conventions in this county unless in case of absolute necessity. Does a Blank Ballot Count? Will some of our friends or exchanges more versed in parliamentary law than wo are answer this question for us. Thirty-six names are polled, a like num ber of ballots are numbered; one party receives 18 votes, another 17 votes, and one ticket is a blank—without a name upon it. It takes a majority of the votes cast to elect. We contend there was no election; that it required 19 voles to elect. General Grant has tnade up his mind. He means to have his own way now. He has placated' public sentiment long enough, and he now says down if I don’t do as I please. Didn’t he sit still and let a vile conspiracy carry his best be loved Babcock to tlie verge of the peni tentiary? Didn’t he let this vile thing be done and raise no voice? Didn’t he let Bristow and the rest of the family prove the White House collusion with the whiskey conspiracy and suffer them to eat the president’s bread and butter? Now anew leaf is turning. He has but a few months to serve, and during those months he proposes to run the machine himself.—Chicago Times, (Ind.) Fred Grant has been nominated to be first lieutenant cf the fourth cavalry, stepping over, if the nomination be confirmed, thirty two second lieutenants commissioned long before he graduated, and twelve lieutenants who graduated with him and have since been serving on the plains of the Mexican frontier. Norwich Bulletin: It seems that the only body in Custer’s command that was not stripped of his clothing was that of a newspaper man. Judging by what we see at the east. It is probable that his garments were so rich and costly that they at once inspired the Indians with awe. The Congressional Committee on Ex penditures in the Naval Department have discovered such strong evidence of Secretary Robeson’s complicity in frauds that .they will report a resolution in structing the Judicialy Committee to prepare articles of impeachment against him. The Turks have massacred several hundred woman and children in Bosnia. They threw them in the air, catch them on their bayonets afid cut their arms and hands off. The recent trout les in Hamburg came tip in the House. Mr. Lamar, of Mis sissippi, made a speech vigorously denouncing the killing of the prison ers, but attributing the affair to the mis goverment that has so long prevailed in South Carolina. HART COUNTY DEPARTMENT. BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. HARTWELirrrrrr^^ THE GAZETTE has now the largest CIRCULATION IN HART COUNTY OF ANY OTHER PAPER. Notice to the Democrats of Hart County. At the last meeting of our Democratic Society, held on last saleday, members were appointed to call meetings in their various districts on the 4th Saturday in July, 1876, for the purpose of electing five delegates to meet in Hartwell tbe first Tuesda}' in August next, who will form a Convention for the purpose of nominating a candidate to the Legis lature from this county. With all earn estness I call upon you to attend these primary meetings, and let them be well represented. It is the right and duty of every citi zen to have a voice in the selection of the next member to the Legislature from this county, and by a full turnout, and hearty co-operation at these district meetings there will be no such word as fail to the success of our party. John G. McCurry, President. July 10th, 1876—td. Rainfall for the past week* 0 57 inches; average temperature for the past week, 91 degrees. Married, Yesterday at the residence of Joseph P. Glover, Esq., by that gentleman, Mr. Frank Holland to Miss Cheek, daughter of Yiolette Cheek. Hog Stealing. Henry Turner, colored, a negro work ing at Hon. Allen Turner’s, was brought here last Monday and put in jail for the above offence. Rain, Oii'iast Saturday evening this town was blessed with a refreshing shower. It was badly- needed, as no rain had fallen here in three weeks. District Meeting. Notwithstanding the hard times we are authorized to state, that there will be a fair representation at the district meet ing from this town and county. The delegates are F.“B. Hodges, from this circuit, and Mr. Chesly Scott, from the Hartwell church. Our Tailor. Mr. H. D. Schmidt has fully establish ed himself here in his business. He is a fine tailor and is giving general satisfac tion to his numerous customers. Par ties wanting work done had better bring in their orders as soon as possible. Honey. Quantities of boney have been brought to town for sale recently, and the quality is very fine ; some of it looks as though it might have been extracted from the flowers of Canaan, from its sweetness and clearness. Baptist Church, Yesterday there were services held in this church by the Rev’d Mr. Barton the pastor. Ho preached a fine sermon to a large congregation. His text was “Come unto me all ye that are heavy laden and I will give you rest.”—Matt xi., 28. Mr. Barton announced that the regular Bap tist Union meeting of this District would commence at Hendry's church next Fri day . Bridges. W r o notice that on account of the freshet, a good many bridges in the county have been washed away, and have not yet been replaced. There is a bridge near E. R. White’s, on the direct public road from here to Elberton, which is gone and causing great inconvenience to the traveling public. We hope some efforts will be made at an early day to replace this and other bridges in the county that are gone, as the commis sioners in various districts will stand a good chance of a fine from His'Honor E. H. Pottle at the next term of our court Justices Court 1113th District, Was held last Saturday in this district, Justices Williams and Cunningham pre siding. Theie were several cases tried ; the one however of most interest was that of Weatherly & Cos. vs. Milledge Haynes. In this case the plaintiff re covered a judgment againtMr. Hodges. Col. J. T. Osborn was in attendance and represented the defendant. There was a considerable crowd in attendance. Primary Election?. Lust Saturday being the 4th, the va rious districts in the county held pri mary meetings, and elected five delegates from the various districts to attend the Convention to beheld here next saleda} 7 , for the purpose of nominating a candi date for the Legislature from this coun ty. From all accounts these meetings were well attended, and tUe delegates were selected with all fairness, proving conclusively that the people are inter ested, and intend this year to have a voice in the selection of their candidate to the Legislature Radical Preacher in Jail—Another Account. On last Wednesday evening Dan Bur ris a copper colored Baptist preacher, was lodged in Hartwell jail for breaking open Hodges and McMullen’s mill and stealing the toll corn. Said Daniel, it is hoped, will come to judgment this time, as he is a notorious rogue, and was run off it is said, from “New Africa” (alias South Carolina) for stealing corn from a mill there. Two of the best niggers in the county came to town to go on his bond, but were not worth the amount required by law. The negro preachers are a great curse to the country ; the best of them will lie, steal, swindle, and take things that don’t belong to them, and teach their children and followers to do the same. Be a:' Killing. On last Saturday night Mr. Wyatt Collins was aroused from his slumbers by some noise in his yard. Ho arose and armed and equipped himself with his double-barreled shot gun and went out, and'Jsure enough there was what he supposed to be the bear, crouched be hind his smokehouse. He took aim and fired at him, when all the result of the fire was a heavy rattling of chains. He continued firing three times in rapid succession, and at each fire he would hear the rattling of chains. After the third fire, supposing him good dead, he advanced on the enemy in good order and with great care, and on arriving at the ;spot, great Heavens wlmt a sight met his igaze: nothing more nor less than the best new wash pot ha owned, which cost $6.50 in clean cash at Ben son’s a short time siuce was shot and riddled all to atoms. We mourn with him in his loss, and hope a subscription may be soon started in his behalf. Burglary in the Night Tims. Last Friday morning Mr. Thos. Vick ery, the miller at Hodges and McMullen’s mill, 2 miles from town, on opening the mill discovered that someone had broken open the same the night previous and taken off some corn. He at once began to look for evidences, and on searching found a track near the entrance, which was made by tearing off some plank, which track he followed very easily, as there had been a slight sprinkle of rain that night, and tracked it to the house of Rev. Daniel Bnrroghs, a colored Bap tist preacher, living some 2 miles from the mill. He returned to town and got a warrant and had the negro arrested, a few minutes afterwards, as he was going to town. Mr. Vickery again went over the same ground with some other par ties, who followed the tracks to the house of Bnrroghs, and on further search found the bag of corn containing about two bushels in the vicinity of his house. On being brought before Esquire Cleave iand, the commitiug J. P., his lawyer waived a committing trail, and on failure to give bond of S3OO he was committed to jail. Burroghs is a noted character amongst the negroes of this county, and is said to be a preacher of some ability. He is supposed to be the ringleader of all the disturbance last year, j caused by“ find ing an incendiary letter. He should be carefully seemed in jail until the next term of our court, when no doubt he will at last receive his just deserts. IIART. €Ol ! fST¥ ADVERTISEMTS (.W .

It is also guaranteed under a.penalty of fifty dollars not to injure the clothes or hands, and as one trial will enable any person to ascertain the truth of these statements, it would never pay the proprietor to engage in an extensive sys tem of ndvertiting and claim such decided merit for his Soap unless he knew from positive expe rience that it would prove to be in every respect what is claimed for it.
