Radical ;Misrepresentations.
The proclivity of Southern Radicals
to lie is proverbial. We say “Southern
Radicals,” because we have never jei
disbelieved that there were honest Re
publicans in the North ; men who were
educated in Republican schools by Re
publican teachers, and who, without
knowing the real sentiments and condi
tion of the Southern people, were and
are conscientious in their political faith.
But we cannot say this of the average
Southern Radical. The renegades from
Northern States who came South at
the close of the v/ar for the pur
pose of making money, laid the
question of honesty aside, and it is
notorious that their acquisitions have
been great; while their poor dupes, the
negrces—the vehicle which carried them
into positions of honor and trust —are
as poor as ever, no matter whether they
were more to be trusted —as was and is
true in most cases—or whether they
were kept in poverty by the system
atic robberies of the Freedman’s Sav
ings Banks, or like institutions of Radi
cal shrewdness and chicanery, by which
tba savings of honest toil were swept
away. We have not in the past been
surprised that these tricksters and
bummers succeeded in'£,deluding an
ignorant and uneducated race into fol
lowing their advice and submitting to
their leadership. Their very ignorance
was the capital for speculation, and it
has been used with unsparing hand.
The condition of the negro raco in
Georgia is a defiant refutation of any
charge of wrong which Radical diabol
ism may bring. In no Radical Southern
State is that race as well provided for
in means of education or accumulating
property; in no such State is their mor
al and religious condition as good. We
say this with pride, because it is an
indubitable argument, however ungrate
fully the true friends of the negro were
thrust aside for political adventurers,
that they worked with un waver in g fidelity
for the elevation of that race, and the
result obtained can bo traced to no
other source.
These reflections are called forth by a
communication in an unknown and char
acterless publication inAtlanta, to which
our attention has been called, which
communication purports to have been
written at Elberton, on the 28th Decem
ber, 1876, undesigned “T. A. F.” if (“fy”
had been added, it would have given the
color of the writer), in which the writer
gives publicity to several assertions, and
each one an unqualified falsehood, which
we propose to give in their order.
Lie No. I.—“ Republican tickets were
sent here before the October election,
but the postmaster would not deliver
them to us until three days after the
election.”
The term “us” is too general, the
writer is cautious in not mentioning who
“us” wore. We have colled on both the
postmaster and ms assistant to find out
the truth of this charge, and he unhesi
tatingly declares it a wilful misrepresen
tation. Whether tickets came or not ho
does not know, as he has not yet acquired
that species of knavery which Radical,
“honesty” has made so popular with the
party of great moral ideas, of prying into
letters or packages—this being prohibited
by the law he has sworn to obey; but
in no case has any letter or package been
called for by parties to whom they were
addressed, or by persons having orders
for such letters or packages, but they
were promptly delivered. This he will
declare on oath, and perhaps that will be
as good as the simple assertion of “T. A.
F.”
Lie No. 2—“As we could not get any
tickets, of course! there were no votes
cast for Hayes and Wheeler, and so hun
dreds of men were deprived of all the
right that the Constitution gives them.”
Why “we” could not get any tickets,
he does not deign to say; but the reason
given why “hundreds of colored men
were deprived of all the right that the
Constitution gives them,” bears false
hood on its face. If “we” were very ar
dent supporters of Hayes and Wheeler,
tickets Could have been written by the
same glib hand that pens a communica
tion “from Elbertor “we” could have
had tickets printed in Elberton on the
day of the election, if they were needed.
“T. A. F.” shows his hand very plainly
in another paragraph, when he says, “No
man should be allowed to take charge of
a post-office who will commit such illegal
acts, and we ask for a man who will deal
justly with the mail.”
The “man who will deal justly with the
mail,” can be no other than “T. A. F.”
An order from the President of “the
party I represent” would bring “T. A.
F.” from Atlanta to Elberton as fast
as the cars and stage could travel
“to deal justly with the mail/'
and perhaps this would boas good a
course as could be adopted for “God to
revenge such cruelty’Vand put an end to
our oppression ; this being the way the
writer “from Elbert” rounds off his pe
riods. This, of course, is gammon and is
intended to show that the writer “from
Elbert” knows a thing or two about writ
ing for publication, by which means he
nails his assertions, as it were. His
policy in calling on the Deity, however,
is not praiseworthy, as the same just
power that revenges cruelty deals out
justice unsparingly to the liar. We be
lieve that a little reflection would have
caused the writer “from Elbert” to agree
with the Irishman in saying that “the
last thing he wanted was justice.”
Connecticut this year joins the States
that inaugurate their governments with
the beginning of the year. Maine, New
York, Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania
are among the other States that begin
their governmental year with the calen
dar year.
When a boy was asked, “Where was
the text this morning ?” He replied, “It
was somewhere in hatchets.” “In
hatchets ? No, it was Acts.” “Well, I
knew it was something that would cut,"
said the boy, triumphantly.
Gov. Nicholls.
Of all men brought to the front by the
recent political troubles, no man suits the
occasion better than Gov. Nicholls, of Lou
isiana. Inaugurated as the Democratic
Governor at the same time that Return
ing Board Packard was installed as the
Radical executive, he seized the reins of
government with an unflinching determ
ination to oust the usurpers if Grant
would keep off his always-threatened
troops. Packard had made his threats
that he would call out ;and arm an over
whelming force of militia. Nicholls made
no threats, but calmly took his seat,
■when he called n sufficient force of militia
to keep down all disorder and to prevent
Packard’s crew from overriding the
courts of justice. The first act of the
Radical legislature was to abolish a court
of their own creation, but which had re
fused to connive at party frauds, and to
create another court which would do
party bidding. Nicholls’ first act was„to
take charge of the courthouse, oust the
illegal court and reinstate the old body.
He next quietly took charge of all pub
lic property in New Orleans, except the
State house which he left undisturbed.
The situation was quiet at last accounts
with the odds largely in favor of Nich
oils. So mote it be.
General Longstreet.
However erratic this old war horse’s
course may have been since the war up to
two years ago, he has of late been gross
ly misrepresented by a portion of the
press. It was positively stated that he
had consented to take command of Pack
ard’s Radical militia in Louisiana. So
far from this being true, General Long
street has unhesitatingly declared that
the State had gone Democratic, and
that the returning board had counted in
the Hayes electors and Packard by will
ful fraud. If he commands any militia
in,Louisiana)it will be that of Governor
Nicholls.
The Slip ’Twixt Cup and Lip.
J. G. Herald, of the N. Y. Bennett
was to have been married recently to a
young lady of the city, but ’his bad con
duct caused an estrangement, and to add
to the unpleasantness of the affair a broth
er of the young lady met Mr. Bennett at
the club rooms and cowhided him. The
result was an affair of honor, whjch took
place in Maryland or Delaware, and one
or both of the principals came off with
out a scratch—at least such is the defi
nite character of the information we ob
tain from the dispatches. Definite or
indefinite, however, it is bad enough for
Bennett, and we expect he wishes he was
well married and out of it.
A Capital Daily.
The high position the Savannah News
occupies in the estimation of the people
of Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina,
and wherever its merits are known, make
its commendation a useless work. Its
every department is under the control
gtiniiouien oi peculiar mness, wniie'tne
character of its gentlemanly proprietor
is known wherever works of charity and
deeds of kindness have been known. The
News has few equals as a live newspa
per, and is of interest to people of any
section of the State or country.
Death of Commodore Vanderbilt.
Commodore Vanderbilt died recently
in New York at an advanced age. He
was a self made man, and well made, too,
if we judge him by the money he accu
mulated, which, his biographers state,
amounted to eighty-five millions of dol
lars. He used his means largely for
doing good and his death, though long
expected, was greatly regretted.
Enlargement of Business.— We are
glad to note that that genial young gen
tleman and accomplished jeweler, Mr. F.
P. Talmadge, has purchased the stock
of Messrs. Childs & Moss and L. Scheve
nell & Cos., which lie will consolidate with
his old stock at No. 3 Broad street,
Athens, Georgia. This will make his
establishment one of the most attractive
to be found anywhere and presided over
by one of the most pleasant gentleman
in the State. We advise all who want
the best goods to give Mr. Talmadge a
call.
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 13, 1877.
Bro. McCarty : I arrived here on
Monday evening last; wentßo the Mark
hum House, found it packed like a box
of sardines : went to Kirnbal House, got
lodging there by being taken high up in
Georgia on the steam elevator. Hotels,
boarding houses, and all out doors was
filled with candidates. I made a calcu
lation, and there are just acres of
them by putting one in a hill, 3 feet
apart.
I met ono old man on the train who
said he was going to run for door-keeper,
and thought he ought to have it, as he
was 62 years old and never “expired”
for an office before; but he did not get
it.
Norwood stock is advancing rapidly
in this market, and if I had not signed a
half scholar to the Methodist about 30
years ago would bet something on his
election.
There are lots of pretty ladies in At
lanta, but you can bet your bottom dol
lar I won’t look at any more of them.
The streets are awful slick and slop
py, and just as a nice gang of them were
paddling across the street, I having
on anew pair of shoes, the heels went
back on me and seated me in Atlanta
slosh. The ladies did not laugh, but
the fool boys had no more manners than
to laugh right out. I have not looked
at one since.
I met your gentlemanly and efficient
representative, who wanted me to room
with him, and which I would gladly have
done but had written and engaged board
before coming on.
Old B says if you mention goobers
any more he will challenge you.
Yours truly,

Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic,
and Mandrake Pills. —These deservedly cele
brated and popular medicines have effected a
revolution in the healing art, and proved the
fallacy of several maxims which have for many
years obstructed the progress of medical science.
The false supposition that “Consumption is in
curable” deterred physicians from attempting to
find remedies for that disease, and patients af
flicted with it reconciled themselves to death
without making an effort to escape from a doom
which they supposed to be unavoidable. It is
now proved, however, that Consumption can be
cured, that it has been cured in a very great
number of cases, (some of them apparently des
perate ones) by Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup alone;
and in other cases by the same medicine in con
nection with Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to the
requirements of the case.
Dr. Schcnck himself who enjoyed uninter
rupted good health for more than forty years,
was supposed at one timetobe at the very gateof
death, bis physicians having pronounced the
case hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate.
He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and,
since bis recovery, many thousands similarly af
fected ha\e used Dr. Schenck’s preparations with
the same remarkable success.
Full direction* accompany each, making it
not absolutely necessity to personally see
Dr. Schenck unless patients wish their lungs
examined, and for this purpose he is profession
ally at his principal office, Corner Sixth and
Arch Sts., Philadelphia, every Monday, where
all letters tor advice must be addressed.
Schenck’s medicines are sold by all druggists.
PUBLIC^EPORT
—OF A—
POLICEMAN.
I have not enjoyed good health ter several
years past, yet have not allowed it to interfere
with my labor. Every one belonging to the la
boring class knows the inconvenience of being
obliged to labor when the body, from debility
almost refuses to perform its daily task. I never
was a believer in dosing with medicines ; but
having heard the Vegetink spoken of so highly,
was deiermined to try it, and shall never regret
that determination. Asa tonic (which every one
needs at some time) it surpasses anything I ever
heard of. It invigorates the whole system; it is
a great cleanser and purifier of the blood. There
are many of my acquaintances who have taken
it, and all unite iu praise of its satisfactory effect
Especial among the aged class of people, it
imparts to them the odc thing most needful in
old age—nights of calm, sweet repose, thereby
strengthening the mind as well as the body. One
aged lady, who has been suffering through life
from Scrofula, and has become blind from its
effects, having tried many remedies with no fa
vorable result, was induced by friends to try the
Vegetine. After taking a few bottles, she ob
tained such great relief that she expressed a
wish for her sight, that she might be able to
look upon the man who sent her such a blessing.
Yours respectfully,
C. P. H. HODGE, Police Officer, Station 6.

H R. Stevens, Esq. : Dear Sir—l should be
wanting in gratitude, if I tailed to Acknowledge
what the Veoetine has done for me. I was at
tacked about eleven months since with Bron
chitis, which settled into Consumption. I had
night sweats and fever chills ; was distressed for
breath and frequently spit blood ; was all ema
ciated, very weak, and sc low that my friends
thought ray case hopeless.
I was advised to make a trial of the Vegetine,
which, under the providence of God, has cured
me. That he may bless the use of your medi
cine te others as he has to me, and that his di
vine grace may attend you, is the heartfelt
prayer of your admiring, humble servant,
BENJ AMIN PETTINGILL.
P. S.—Mine is but one among the many cures
vour medicine has effected in this place. B. P.

South Boston, Feb, 9,18 A"
H. R. Stevens : Dear Sir—l have beard from
very many sources of the great success of Vegk
tins in case of Scrofula, Rheumatism, Kidney
Complaint, Catarrh, and other diseases of kin
dred nature. I make no hesitation in saying
that I know Vegetine to be the most reliable
remedy for Catarrh and General Debility.
My wife has been troubled with Catarrh for
many years, and at times very badly. She has
thoioughly tiied every supposed remedy that we
could hear of and with all this has for several
j-ears been gradually growing worse, and the
discharge from the head wss excessivo and very
offensive.
She was in this condition when she comenced
to take Vevetink ; I could see that she was im
proving on the second bottle. She continued
taking the Vegetine until she had used from
twelve to fifteen bottles. I am now happy in
informing you and the public (if you choose to
make it public) that she is entirely cured, and
Vegetine accomplished the cure after nothing
else would. Hence I leel justified in saying that
Vegetine is the most reliable remedy,and wonld
advise all suffering humanity to try it, for I be
lieve it to be a good, honest, vegetable medicine,
and I shall not hesitate to recommend it.
I am, &c , respectfully, L. C. CAIIDELL,
Store 451 Broadway.
Vegetine acts directly upon the causes of
these complaints. It invigorates and strengthens
the whole system, acts upon the secretive organs,
allays inflammation, cleanses and cures ulcera
tion, cures constipation, and regulates the bow
els.
Mas Entirely Csared Me.
Boston, October. 1870.
11. R. Stevens, Esq. : Dear Sir—My daugh
ter, after ha <ing a severe attack of whooping
cough, was left iu a feeble state ot health. Be
ing advised by a friend, sha tried the Vegetine,
and after using a few bottles was |fully restored
to health.
I have been a great sufferer from Rhematism.
I have taken several bottles of the Vegetine for
this complaint, and am happy to say that it has
entirely cured me. I have recommended the
Vegetine to others with the same good results. It
is a great cleanser and purifier of the blood; it is
pleasant to take ; and I can cheerfully recom
mend it.

Tub Sub will continue to he the strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the
substitution of statesmanshin, wisdom, and in
tegrity for hollow pretence, imbecility, and fraud
in the administration of public affairs. It will
contend for the government ol the people by the
people and for the people, ns opposed to govern
ment by frauds in the ballot-box and in the
counting of votes, enforced by military-wiolence.
It will endeavor to supply its readers—a body
now not far from a million of souls—with tho
mostcareful, complete,and trustworthy accouuts
of currentevents, and will employ for this pur
pose a numerous and carefully selected staff of
reporters and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate,
and tearless; and it will doubtless counfinue to
deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive
by plundering the Treasury or by usurping what
the law does not give them, while it will endeavor
to merit the confidence ol the public by defend
ing the rights of the people against the cucroch
ments of unjjistified power.
