Voters of Baldwin and of the old ^th District. Remember the special election for a member ol Congress to serve during the remainder of Tom Speer’s term, takes place on the 29th of this month. Col. E. W. Beck of Griffin, is the Dem ocratic candidate. He is a worthy gentleman and will make a good Rep resentative. We have been missrepre- sented long enough. We have a ma jority in this District, and can elect him easily if we all turn out and vote. We shall want his services next winter in Congress and it 13 our interest as well as our duty to elect him. We sincerely hope that every Democratic voter in the old 4th District will re member and turn out on the 29th inst., and vote for Col. Beck. If you stay at home and suffer another Radical to be elected, you and your children af ter you, may rue the day that you neglected your duty to your country. Again we say remember the 29th of October and be sure and turn out and vote for Col. E. W. Beck. Our Straight-out Friends. Those gentlemen calling themselves Jeffersonian Democrats seem bent on doing mischief. They Burely can’t have the least hope of getting an electoral vote in Georgia for their re luctant candidate. Why then do they put an electoral ticket in the field, if it is not to help Grant? Whether that is their intention or not, it will have that effect, if any. But we are rejoiced to believe that the true Democracy is so strong in Georgia, the combined forces of Grant and the Straight-outs can’t jostle them. — — ■ — The Political Prospect. The Democracy and Liberal Repub licans at the North do not appear to be at ail discouraged by the result of the October elections. The Execu tive Committees of both the Demo crats and Liberal Republicans in the States of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio have put forth rousing ad dresses calling upon the people to arise in their might and put down an administration that is determined to hold on to power against the wishes of a majority of the people. They have exposed the glaring acts of bri bery and corruption by which the Radicals carried the election in Penn sylvania and tried to carry it in Indi ana. They have exposed to the gaze of the civilized world an administra tion whose hired agents have employ ed thousands of ignorant negroes to go from Maryland and Virginia to vote, and by this means stifled and overcame the wishes of the citizen* of that State, and when enough ille gal voters could not be had they have employed New York roughs to stufl the ballot boxes and bribed the man agers of elections to make false counts and false returns. If these exposures do not alarm and arouse the people of these States to arise in their might and hurl these corrupt rulers from power it will be because they have themselves become too corrupt for self-government. We do not believe that a majority of the northern people have yet become so degenerate as to submit to such abuses of power. We believe that a majority of them are still honest and will put down these infamous election frauds and the men who practice them. Judge Duogherty Dead.—A pri vate dispatch received in this city an nounces ttie death in New York of Mr. Win. Dougherty, one of the most dis tinguished lawyers in Georgia. He had long been sinking, and his death created little surprise, though univer sal regret.—Atlanta Snn. We Want a Convention of the Peo ple of G-corgia to Amend our Frei- ent Constitution* It is well known by all who have examined the subject that our present State ’Constitution formed by scalawags, carpet-baggers and ne groes in 186S is in many respects ex tremely defective. Many of its pro visions are oppressive ; many things have been omitted, which the people want. One of the first things done by the new Legislature should be the passage of an act calling a Convention to amend the constitution. In calling a convention the colored people should be guaran teed .that their rights should not be disturbed. If not prohibited by the Constitution, Clews & Company, with the assistance of the Atlanta ring, will prevail upon some Legislature to pay their fraudulent bonds. There is a number of men lying around Atlan ta, who are always ready to sell their services as lobby members to those who will pay them best. Of course the bond-holders can always command their services in manipulating the Legislature. Remember. Democrats of the old Fourth Con gressional District remember that a special election to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Thomas Speer will take place on the 29th of this month. The Democratic candidate is Col. Beck of Griffin; turn out and elect him. His opponent is Jim Green, n scalawag whom Bullock appointed Judge. Be sure and turn out and vote for Col. Beck. The Speaking- last Thursday. The citizens of Baldwin county had the pleasure of listening to addresses from Col. Beck, candidate for Congress in the old 4th District for the unex pired term of Mr. Speer, and from Col. Blount, candidate for Congress in the 6th District, and from Col. Harde man. An account of the meeting will be found in another place. The turn out from the country was not so great as we could have wished ; most of the planters being very busy picking their cotton ; but there is no necessity of speaking to the democracy of Bald win, they are all right, and we trust when the time for voting comes they will be on hand and show their faith by their works. Gov. Smith’s Majority.—One hun dred and twenty-nine counties have given a majority of *57,361 for the re- election of Gov. Smith. Eight more counties are to hear from, which will run the majority, perhaps, to 60,000. About 150,000 votes were polled, 10,- 000 less than was cast in the Presi dential election four years ago, when the Democratic majority was 45,688, an increase of nearly 15,000 for the Democracy. Thousands of the color ed people voted for Governor Smith, and they will find that lie is a better friend to them than their pretended friends of the Radical party. Hurrah for Smith!—La Grange Jiei>orter. Jurors for the United States Court.—The Savannah Republican of Saturday says: “Jurors for the United States Court, which holds an August adjourned term at an early date in this city for the Southern District of Georgia, have been drawn, and are as follows : A. L. Woodward, Monroe county; W. T. Morgan, Bibb county; O. II. P. Rawls, Wilkinson county; Joshua F. Ussery, Glasscock county; W H Fickling, Taylor county ; Green Watson, Leo county ; Ruben Cord, Jones county ; Win H Lawson, Washington county ; Jat W Mikell, Bulloch county; S H Singleton, Bibb county ; John D, Sav- j'lge, Chatham county; James D. Fred erick, Macon county ; T. T. Windsor, Baldwin county; Samuel Mayer, Dougherty county; W S Spears, Rich mond county; Thos J Atkins, Hous ton county ; Chas Spaeth, Richmond county; V A Clagg, Lee county; John C Pittman, Quitman county; D G Adams. Clay county; Chas Ster ling, Camden county; R J Bruce, Thomas county ; David Arnett, Mus cogee county ; W P Daniels, Dooly county ; F L Grace, Bibb county.” The Harvest in Europe.—The harvest in France is considered, on the whole, very good; that in England not so good; in Italy decidedly bad, both as to quantity and quality; Russia makes a fair return, especially in Od essa, where the wheat harvest is look ed upon as better than usual ; Germa ny also gives a tolerably good account; in Switzerland, Spain and Belgium the harvests have been very successful, especially in cereals. Cost of the Maine Election.— Speaker Blaine says only $12,000 were spent by the Grantites in Maine. A correspondent of the Tribune shows that they spent over $200,000 in that little enterprise. But the investment paid them. Walton County.—A private note from a friend says Walton county is making more cotton than any of the adjoining counties. It is believed the crop will reach 10,000 bales. The corn crop, also is very fine. No man can avoid his own compa ny, so he bad better make it as good as possible. Robert Bonner, of the New York Ledger, will erect a monument to the memory of Fanny Fern. I WRITE yon to certify that I have used DR. SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR in my family with complete success. J. W. D. BIRD,. Chattanooga, Fla. The Democracy Fnrtnnnled nod Hopeful. DEMOCRATIC ADDRESS. Columbus, O., October 13.—The Democratic State Executive Commit tee will to-morrow morning issue the following address to the Democracy of Ohio: “ To the Democracy of Ohio: “The result of last Tuesday’s elec tion shows that Ohio was lost by the failure to poll the uusal Democratic votes. Mortifying as is the fact, jus tice to the Liberal Republicans, and an earnest desire to retrive the misfor tune, require us to declare it. In our chief towns, the Liberal strength ex ceed our most sanguine estimate In the country, it fell short; but the ag gregate of the Liberals in the city and country who voted our State ticket, added to the Democratic vote of 1S68, would have overcome the Re publican majority at that election and the negro vote combined and given us victory. Can we repair the mischief ? We can. Four fifths of the Democrats who stayed at home last Tuesday can be induced to vote for Greeley in No vember. Those who will absolutely refuse to go to the polls will be coun terbalanced by those Republicans who went against us last Tuesday but will vote for Greeley. We have only to poll our usual Democratic vo:e to snatch from defeat a glorious victory The liberals stretch forth the hand: shall we refuse to take it? The pros trate and plundered South cries for help : shall we be deaf to tbeir appeal ? “By Greeley’s election we can res tore prosperity and good governrxkent to the South, kind feelings to the now hostile sections, honesty and honor to the civil service, respect for the Consti tution and laws to the National Admin istration. Could we do more with a Democrat in the Presidency ? Could he expect that co-operation in Congress which Mr. Greeley would command? Are patriotic Democrats willing to lose all beneficial results of victory out of personal hostility to Greeley, or disgraceful lethargy ? Are Ohio Dem ocrats ready to let our yet pure and proud State become debauched and hopelessly subjugated, like Pennsyva- nia, by hordes of mercenaries paid by public plunder ? “Fellow Democrats, our Union with the Liberals in Ohio has not been fruitless. It has given us Hamilton county by near 6.000 majority, which secures the Constitutional Convention and the Legislature and a United States senator next year, if we make a brave fight this fall. Should both Ohio and Pennsylvania go for Grant, the chauces are still in favor of Gree ley’s election. Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and Indiana, added to those border and Southern States which are certain for Greeley, will give him a clear majority. Wo have already, by a vigorous and aggressive fight, forced the Grant party to its knees, and can conquer it in Novem ber. Fellow Democrats, work till No vember heartily and hopefully. The Liberals will take care of themselves. Let every Democratic county commit tee get a list of those Democrats in each township who failed to vote last Tuesday, and direct its effort to them. Bring out this laggard vote, and the fight is won in Ohio and the republic RETIETIBER ’. That the election for a Congressman from the old Fourth District, to fill Speer’s vacancy, comes off on Tuesday, the 29th day of this month, and that the candidates are Col- E. W. Beck, of Griffin, Democrat, and Judge Jas Greene of Upson, Radical. Col. Beck is aD able, honest and thoroughly trust worthy man, who deserves the hearty support of every respectable man in tf e district, and who will be over whelmingly elected if the Democrats will only turn out. If a full vote is polled he will beat Greene three thou sand voces at the very lowest calcula tion. We urge our friends to remem ber the day, and go to the polls. As to who Greene is and how he stands, now, we refer the reader to an article found in the “Georgia Press” column. He pretends to be “an old line Whig,” when the facts show that he was nominated by a full blooded Radi cal Convention, and that he is, to all practical intents and purposes, a mem ber of that party, and in full sympathy with all its vile schemes against the liberties of the people. He may sing this “eld line Whig” song until he is hoarse, but he will fool no man three degrees removed from an idiot. He is a Republican, and if elected must and will—or be a traitor to those who supported him—act with that party in Congress. He knows there is no “old line Whig” party in Congress or the country, and that he must either vote with or against the Grant despotism. Such political hypocrites deserve even more signal reprobation by the people than open unblushing Radicals, and we invoke the vote r s of the old Fourth District, on the 29th inst., to bury “Geems” G. out of sight under a rousing majority for Col. Beck. It can be easily done if the Democrats will on ly turn out. Will they do it?.— Tele graph and Messenger. F0X.WA1UD I Address «f (hr Nmior.il Democratic Com mitter to Ike People of tbr Ceiled Slate*. The following address to the people of the United States has been issued by the National Democratic Commit tee : The October elections are over. They enable us to form a tolerably accurate idea of the true political situ ation of the country. In Georgia we have to recount a victory for the Liberal ticket so un exampled as to take her out of the list of doubtful States, and practically to pronounce in advance the decision of at least 125 votes in the Electoral Col lege. To this number it is only necessa ry to add sixty votes to elect Greeley and Brown. In Pennsylvania the distinguished Chairman of the Liberal Committee has eloquently characterized the meth ods by which the result of the election there was accomplished. We com mend his statement to the thoughtful attention of the country. In Ohio, despite most unprecedent ed gains for the Liberal Democratic ticket, the Grant managers have car ried the election by a reduced major ity, having brought to the polls their entire reserve vote. Had our Demo cratic friends in certain localities of that great Commonwealth shown the same earnestness and activity, and en abled us like our enemies to record our entire strength, they would now be exulting over a brilliant victory. In Indiana the Democratic and Liber al forces have achieved a most impor tant success over Pennsylvania tactics most unscrupulously employed by the Administration and its allies, showing thus that a free people when aroused know their rights and dare maintain them. Indiana has fairly demonstra ted that she can neiiher be “bought nor bullied.” The moral of these re sults is that victory is still in plain view for our national ticket, and that energy and courage will assure it. That victory must ho won. If we mean to preserve free institutions on this continent wo must assure it. The event in Pennsylvania on Tues day last, when considered in its causes, is the most appalling political catas trophe that has ever taken place in this country. Should the system through which this catastrophe was brought about be condoned by the people and foisted on the other States it seals the doom of freedom in Ameri ca. A sad contrast it is surely that the city in which our Republio was born amid the anthems of a free people should now bo the first to toll the knell of its liberties. It is for the free, unbought people of all the States to calmly review the fearful crime against suffrage in Pennsylvania, aud to decide whether it shall be repeated withm their own borders. For the first time the system of free government and the sanctity of the ballot are really on trial in the United States. From this hour forward the preservation of the franchise in its integrity dwarfs all other issues. Let our friends in each of the States catch inspiration from the he roic conduct of our fellow-citizens in Georgia and Indiana; and from now till November let their struggle be manful and uuceasing for liberty and an untainted ballot-box, for reform and an honest administration of the Government. Augustus Schell. Chairman National Democratic Com mittee. Beautiful Women.—The hair is the crowning glory of woman. There are few moderate defects which cannot he remedied by the proper disposi tion of the tresses. But when the hair begins to to fall out, or turn gray, in young people, or with those in the prime of life, there is caase for real regret, V^hen this is the case. Hall’s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer will be found to be a first- class remedy, far superior, aa a sound medical medium, to any thing else before the public. It actually restores gray hiar to its original color, and in the great majority of cases, causes it to grow again when it is becoming thin. It is not like many popular preparations, a mere wash, but a scientific discovery, indorsed and used by physia cians of character. Address R. P. Hall & Co., Nashua, N. H.—Forney’s Weekly Press, Feb* 1 1868. i The Missing Congressman.—The Hon. John V. Creeley is the member of Congress from the second district of Philadelphia, Pa., who is reported as missing, and his absence attributed to professional defalcations. The Philadel phia Ledger says a suit was entered in August last, in which Mrs. Mary Fear- on charges that John V. Creeley ob tained from her certain bonds acquired from the estate of her deceased hus band, and that those bonds have been illegally transferred to other partios lor the use and benefit of Mr. Creeley. The bill further prays that Creeley be compelled to give her these bonds. He was required, on special injunc tions, on September 25th to answer in eight days, but as yet no answer has been made. The local papers in this connection, do not state that Mr. Cree ley has absconded. Most of the shadows that cross our path through life are caused by stand ing in our own light. If Grant is elected we may look out for military interference in the affairs of the South. From the Courier Journal. Tho Vote in TTovcmber. The recent elections prove that Gen. GraDt and his, friends are capable of doing anything to perpetuate their power. With them the wishes of the people are nothing, and their own re tention in office everything. Notwith standing the very considerable majori ty by which Hartranft is apparently elected, there is little reason to doubt that a majority of the qualified voters of Pennsylvania aro on the Liberal side. In Philadelphia, the records show that the impossible number of one hundred and sixty-five thousand voters were registered, and a like fraud was practiced throughout the State To make this good, Cameron and his agents imported thousands of repeat ers from New York, and tens of thou sands of negroes from Maryland, Vir ginia and the District of Columbia. In Indiana the frauds upon the franchise were equally glaring under the man agement of Morton & Co. Money was used Wherever it could be used to ad vantage, and for weeks before the election, Kentucky negroes were con stantly passing over into Indiana at every ferry to vote the Radical ticket. That these gigantic frauds failed to defeat Hendricks is the strongest possi ble proof that the Liberal majority in our neighboring States is overwhelm ing. We call upon the people to arise in their might and crush the unprinci pled demagognes who in their lust for office have been guilty of such heinous crime against the right of suffrage and the liberties of the people. Let the Liberal majority in November be so overwhelming that it will be impossi ble for the tricksters to count our can didates out. Georgia News. Col.

Force As the people ar« generally acquainted with the facts as stated in that card, we will not reiterate them. Yesterday evening, the towu was startled by the ru mor that a duel had been fought by Mr. Houston Force with Mr J. Harvey Townsend, near the ceme tery, with shot guns. The rumor p-oved lo be too true. The parties 'eft from in front of the National Hotel yesterday evening and proceed to a little grove in front of the main en trance to the city cemetery on Fair street. Here the duel occurred with shot-guns at forty yards, between sunset and dark. It is rumored that Mr. Force tired a few seconds alter the word was given, and before Mr. Towmend had turned. Mr. Townsend did not fire in the direction of Mr. Force. Two buckshot took effect in the left elbow and one shot in the hack under fhe shoulder blade. Dts W. F. Wesmoreland, E. S. Ray, J. P. Logan and J. T. Johnson attended the un fortunate man. Two shot and a number of pieces of bone were extracted from the shattered arm, and the arm resected. Tho wound in the back was probed to the depth of four or fivo inches without detecting the ball. It is uncertain whether the bail entered the chest or lodged under the shoulder blade. Mr. Town send is in a critical condition. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Mr. Force, but up to twelve o’clock he had not been found. The doe! seems to have grown ont of a previous difficulty betweenMr. Force and Mr. Haskell, which culminated in the former s caning the latter who chal lenged Mr. F., Mr. Townsend bearing the challenge. Mr. Force refused to recognize Mr. Haskell as a gen tleman, and thn* Mr. Townsend became involved. The Atlanta Sun, of Sunday morning, says: It is stated, upon good authority, that the warrant for Mr. Force’s arrest was not issued at the instance of Mr. Townsend or any of his family. The family in deed regret it. At a late honr last evening Mr. Townsend was still improving, with a fair prospeetof recovery. M r. Force was still at large, all eflorta to arrest him having proved fntile. Old Thing* Hare F*»«»d Awsy.

In a great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been cured by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health. It is, however, prudent, and in every ease more certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more es pecially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will pot require any aid to keep the bow els in good order. Should the patient, however, re quire a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or tour doses of the tonic, a single dose of Bull's Vegc table Family Pills will be sufficient. buxjIj’s Read the following extract of a letter from Mrs. Rivers, wile of Reverend Dr. Rivers, one of tho most learned, eloquent and popular Ministers of the Method ist Episcopal Church, and who is at present eiatioued at Broadway Church, Louisville, Ky. Louisville, Kr., Oct. 8,1SC9. Dr. John Bull—Dear Str: M any thanks to you for the medicine you have so kindly given me. I have .been a great sufferer for years, and had the advice of various physicians. Some pronounced my spine, s'»no my lungs, and some my heart to bo the scat of my - ease. I have been burnt, blistered and cupped until I had become disheartened. Several very eminent physicians who exaimned my spine informed me that I was threatened with paralyses or appoplexy any day aud that nothing but a setou would relieve me. I ha i a perfect horror of that, and was hesitating about having one inserted, when you kindly sent me your Sarsaparilla which I immediately begun to take three times a day. I had suffered terribly with a most acute pain in the right side of my head, especially when 1 would road or write for any Icngtn - •! time, and on rising to my feel I would be perlectiy blind for several minutes, aud would have to hold to something to prevent falling. I am most happy to inform you that the pain in my head is entirely relieved ; I surfer but seld mi with my spine and then not so acutely- My appetite is good ; iudoed for the first time iu my lite I enjoy my dinner more than any meal during the day. You kindly sent me four bottles again last night, aud I began agaiu this morning, and I hope to be en tirely relieved- Please accept my heartfelt thanks aud best wishes. Very truly your most grateful friend, M. B. C, Rivers. My journal abounds with similar letters, all of which 1 guarantee to be genuine and vvr.tten by the persons whose names they bear. Do not suffer yourself to be imposed on. Don’t be drawn away after now and doubtful experiments. Don’t risk your health by letting novices experiment upon you with their trash. My Sarsaparilla has -toed the test for twenty five years i it is still the Sarsaparilla of the day, and of the age, towering over all others in popularity and its curative qualities. Avoid all those who are trying to palm off on you other extracts of Sarsaparilla, so-called. Remember it is Dr J,.ha Bull’s Sarsaparilla, of Louisville, Ky-, that i.- the oi l and reliable remedy lor impurities of the bleed aui scrofulous affections. Always bear that in mind. Another Testimony. Beston Barrack?. Mo. "j ASTHMA. VoORHEES RlSE8 TO EXPLAIN. NewYoric, October 17.—The Tri bune's Washington special says, a letter has been received from Voorhees, dated Terre Haute, the 14th, conceding his defeat and attributing it to apathy. He says it was simply the stay-at-home vote in his party, that beat him and hurt the cause everywhere. Nobody thought there was a possibility of his defeat,and overconfidence led hundreds to stay away from the polls. He is glad to be able to resume his law prac tice and closes by saying: “Mr. Gree ley has personally raised himself in this canvass a thousand fold in my es timation.” The Georgia State Fair.-—The Atlanta Constitution, of Friday, says that Thursday was a great day for the Georgia State Fair. It was estimated that between 15,000 and 18,000 peo ple were on the grounds at one time. All trains coming into the city during the day were literally packed with passengers, General News* The Cenneeticnt news gets better. The Dem ocrats gained eighteen towns. The Democrats and Liberals of North Carotins have resolved to thoroughly investigate the frauds of the last election. Voorhees wss defeated for Congress in Indiana through the gerrymandering of his District by the last Legislsture so as to give a Radical major- ily. Indiana.—Remember that Morton soid that the Radicals would carry Indiana by 14,000 majority, whereas Heudrick\is elected by a majority that is said by official count to run over 1,200- This is cheering. How we Gained in Cincinnati.—The Demo cratic pain in Cincinnati, Ohio, is very encourag ing. Hamilton connty, in which it is, two years ago gave a Radical majority of 2,797'; last year of 1,564. It reversed the engine this year wiped ont the 1,564 Radical majority and gave a Demo cratic and Libera! majority of 5,646 for Secretary of State and 8,876 for Supreme Court Jndge. Good for Cincinnati. T*e Virginia Tobacco Crop Ruined.—A gentleman from Richmond informs ns thst much of the growing crop of tobscco between that place and Lynchbnrg has been bitten by frost and hope lessly mined. In some localities entire crops have been destroyed, and not a plant will be saved-— This being the case in the eastern portion of the State, we may conelnde that thousands of pound* of tobacco in the monntains and in the southwest ern countries have been rained by the frost.

Johnson .- Dr John Bull—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C. S. Johnson, was a skillful surgeon and physician in Cen tral New York, where he died, leaving the above C. P. Johnson to my care. At thirteen years of age he had a chronic diarrhea and scrofula, tor which I gave your Sarsaparilla. It cured him. I have for ten years recommended it to many in New York, Ohio and Iowa, for scrofula, fever soies, and general debili ty. Perfect success has attended it. The cures ef fected in some cases of scrofula and ferer sores were almost miraculous. I am very anxious for my son to again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla. He is fearfnl of getting a spurious article, hence hie writing to yon font. His wounds were terrible, but I believe he will recover.
