are before onr readers. They lay open to
their observation, the condition of the North

ITTEE, V
ier 8,1868. j
THE REPUBLICAN EMPIRE IS PEACE.
The burthen of the Radical song nt the
Sonth is “Peace; Peace !” Gen. Grant says
“let us have peace !” and his supporters, or
rather the advocates of Radicalism, from one
end of the Union to the other echo his sweet
sounding invocation: Biit what is the peace
to which the Radical party invite us to? Let
Mr. Colfax—who it is generally conceded
is to be the acting President in the vory
.probable event of the .triomph of the Radi
cal party in November—tell us what he knows
from Gen. Grant’s “own declarations” is the
peace which he will inaugurate in this once
free, peaceful and happy land. In a late
speech Mr. Colfax says: » '
Now, in the language of onr leader, let us
have peace. We want no more taxes; no
more drafts; no more carnage, and blood
shed; and desolation. No; no. When we
reflect that this rebellion is only to be re r
membered in broken hearts, numberless
graves, and enormous debt, we can only snyf
weWant no more war, but we want loyalty
to be triumphant, and we want peace
through justice, liberty, nationality, and se
curity to all. [Great applause.] Are we go-
0 to iin.vo mem r vmeu we elect
Grant and Colfax.”] Yes; there is one man
paroled pris
oners of war. When < lie becomes President,
whenever treason dares to raise its head he toili
strike it down. Every man wlio dares to raise,
his'hanid against his fellow-man will be met
with the stern power of the Government. Grant
will give protection to all, through the nation’s
strength. £ Tijis is what Grant Mends to do,
and wfyai.he believes ■ the duly\ if the Execu
tive, jus T know from : his mart declarations.
[Grfeat applause.] * These Ku-Klux outrages -
must cease. You remember in 1860, eight
years ago, there were’ threatenings in the
South. They said, they were going to re-,
beI;you did hot believe it then, but it’was
a stem reality. Do you know that they are
better prepared toftpy than they were then?
They didn’t then have this organized Ku-
KlnXrKlan,. the existence of which has been.
denied,iHut-ho man* can deny it ’now. • No
man who rises up to deny what Forrest has
acknowledged, that this is a powerfhl and
armed organization ready to do its.work..
In i860, you lenme, men dared to stand up in the
South and denounce Secession, and dedare their
devotion to the Union; now no man can do so
without.being-in danger of his life. .Speakers in'
the Sirath teach people to ostracise thoso who
speak in defence of {he' "Union.” "This you
Imowis toe case mow,‘.and that it was not
eight years ago, before toe rebellion was or
ganized.
The above extract, while it informs ns that
toe peace policy of General Grant is to be
maintained by force—that the order which
reigned in Warsaw is to be enforced in the
Sonth through the same cruel and despotic
agency—the bayonet—also discloses toe
fact that Mr. Colfax is entirely ignorant of
the true temper of pnblic opinion in the
Sonth, or is in his utterances careless of the
truth. If he wilfully misrepresents toe
South, he proves himself unworthy toe trust
of a free people; if he ignorantly believes
what he asserts in regard to the South, he is
unworthy to rank with American statesmen.
In either case; his mendacity or his ignorance
should -disqualify him for the position he
seeks.
If Mir. Colfax does not he ought to know
that he. or any other mas can stand np in toe
Sduth and declare his devotion to.toe Union
and toe Constitution without being in danger
of his life. He ought to know, and we be
lieve does know that there is in toe South to-
ubhean gov
ernment in Georgia than can be" found in his 1
entire party. It is not to toe Union, nor the
Government that the people ofthe Sonth are
disloyal, butto the Jqcobinical revolutionists
and innovators who have usurped and per
verted the Government, and are daily ymlcitig
it, in their hands, more odious in the minds of
freemen than toe most absolute despotism in
the world. If in the peaceful mi llenium
which he and Gen. Grant are about to inau
gurate, it becomes necessary .to knock down
or bayonet.every man who dares to raise his
voice against Radical corruption, misrule and
oppression, we shall not be surprised if there
should he some work for toe “stem power of
toe Government,’’, aq be calls toe peace
making authority, outside’ toe, limits of toe
late rebellions States. j .
It is evident that Mr. Colfax, while he
prates of peace, feels that his party haying
attained power by the war, can only retain
that power bv keeping alive the spirit of dis-.
trust, hatred and strife between t£ie sections.
This has proved a * most expensive and ruin
ous policy for toe country, .especially for the
South, and must in time react with fearful
consequences upon those by whom it was in
augurated, and who are seeking to perpetu-
ate it. Till then it is idle to reason with onr
persecutors and oppressors.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.
Rooms Democratic Central
Executive Committee,
Atlanta, Ga., October
To the Democratic Party of Georgia: |
It is important in toe approaching election
for Electors of President and Vice-President
of toe United States, to exclude illegal votes
from the ballot-box. For the purpose of
guarding as effectually as possible against
such votes, toe Democratic Clubs in toe sev
eral counties of this State ore reqnested to
appoint two or more challengers for each pre
cinct and place of voting.
It is desired that challengers be appointed
who know personally toe voters residing in
, toe vicinity of toe precincts to which they
may be assigned for duty, and that all strang
ers and persons not known to be entitled to
vote, be challenged upon offering to vote,
and required to take the oaths prescribed by
the Constitution and election laws. It is not
intended or expected that captions challenges
should be made—challenges should be made
only in cases of doubt, or when it . is well
known that the persons offering to vote are
not entitled.
It is earnestly reqnested that no freedman
who ie entitled to tod. right of suffrage be
obstructed in toe exercise of that right.
According to toe election laws of this State
toe managers most be justices of the peace,
and freeholders. From the necessity of the
case tire management of the election will be
in toe hands of white men. Bnt one day is
allowed for the election, and in many of the
counties the number of voters will be largely
increased over previous elections, so much so
as to give room for doubts whether all will
hare an opportunity to vote, and this may
cause toe polls to be crowded to the exclusion
of some of toe voters. Under snch circum
stances there may he danger of conflicts be
tween the two races, and riot may he the con
sequences. To avoid collisions and riots,
and in order that the election may be conduct
ed fairly, the managers are especially request
ed to moke arrangements, so that all who are
entitled to vote shall have an opportunity of
voting without being jostled«from the polls.
This ivill be necessary in order to preserve
toe pnblic peace.. Let all have an opportuni
ty to vote without hindrance or obstruction,
who possess the requisite qualifications. In
giving these instructions, toe Central Execu
tive Committee do not assume to dictate to
the managers of toe election, bnt make these
suggestions, that the public peace may be
preserved and riots avoided.
E. G. Cabaniss,
Chairman Cen. Ex. Committee.
— *
When the Republican party was first form
ed it incorporated in its platform a resolution
rebuking Congress and the Federal Govern
ment for its interference with toe people of
Kansas. The managers and organs of the
party endeavored to secure their prominence
by charging that the Government was trying
to force upon toe people of that Territory a
ooucriiimiiou agwiii at tLoIw will, oad
eling outside of its jurisdiction by interfering
with the local aflairs of the people. Since
that time that party has a thousand times
over eaten its own words, and is now resort
ing to toe use of the military to enforce the
same principle on the South that it repudiat
ed in its early organization.

tobar, inatant, that the dead body of a negro man was
found one-and-a-half miles from Blakely, in this State,
near the road leading from Blakely to Fort Gaines,
apd that, from marks on the body, the man must
have come to his death by-violence at the hands of
some person or persons unknown, and tU^t the said
body was identified as that of William T. Walker, Of
Atlanta, Georgia:
And whebeas, the said Sheriff further roports that
- the said Walker stopped at the house of Charles Fryer
• on the Friday night previous to the finding of the dead
-»—» *■-»« 4»vi’*g ik- PsiAajr night,

came to his house and called for said Walker, stating
in his hearing, “ that they had been foUowing him

came up with him.” The said Walker was then taken
away by the said unknown person or persons;
And, whebeas, it is further reported to this De
