DEMOCRATIC
COMMIT-
EXECUTIVE
TEE.
A meeting of the Democratic Executive
Committee of Chatham county will be held
at the Committee Booms this evening at 7£
o’clock. iL D. Arnold,
President.
THE PRESIDENTIAL CAW ASS—THE
REACTION.
We give this morning sketches of Mr. Sey
mour’s great speeches at Bochester and Buf
falo, New York, on Friday last, the stirring
address of the National Democratic Commit
tee, and the outspoken and extraordinary let
ter of President Johnson to Mr. Seymour.
These will all be read with uncommon inter
est by our people who will see in them evi
dences not only of the vigorous manner in
which the canvass is being prosecuted by the
standard-bearers of the Democracy, but also
of their reassurance and renewed hopefnlness,
if not confidence in the success of the Presi
dential ticket on Tuesday a week from to
morrow.
These, with other indications to which we
might allude, assure ns that a remarkable
awakening of the people of the country to
a sense of the danger which threatens
their liberties and the existence of Constitu
tional government, has taken place through
out the North and West within the past few
days, and that those who are best informed
of the state of the public mind are not hope
less of the triumph of Democratic principles
and the overthrow of Radicalism. There is
no flinching, no backing down from their
principles or candidates indicated in the Ad
dress of the National Democratic Committee.
This is an encouraging sign that all is not
lost—that the party is at least true to its
principles, which must ultimately prevail if
the Bepublic survives. The bold and patriotic
step of Mr. Seymour in taking the field under
the circumstances, if it argues the necessity
of extraordinary effort to rescue the country
from impending ruin, also indicates that he
is not hopeless of the result if every true pa
triot will come np, like him, to the performance
of his duty. If he despaired of success, he
certainly would not assume a position which
could only make his defeat doubly mortifying
to himself He might fold his arms in the
privacy of his home, and as the unwilling
nominee of the party let the election take its
course. Every personal consideration would
prompt this course if he did not entertain
the belief that the victory may be won.
Tlio extraordinary letter of President John
son will fall upon the ears of the patriotic
masses, the true friends of Constitutional go
vernment “like an alarm bell in the night,”
arousing them to the danger which threatens
the destruction of onr Kepublican form of
Government. It settles the question as to
where the President stands in the present
conflict, and speaking as it does the sincere
convictions, the solemn warnings of one who,
rising above party, has proved himself the
fearless and unswerving champion of the Con
stitutional Union, cannot fail to exert a pow
erful influence in this crisis of the Nation's
destiny.
For the few remaining days, the canvass
throughout the North and West will be urged
with a power, zeal and earnestness on the
part of the Democracy such has never char
acterized any other similar contest since the
formation of the government. We assure our
friends that the signs are most cheering. We
have reason to believe that a most extraordi
nary reaction is going on in favor of the party
of the Constitution, which must culminate in a
glorious triumph. Let Georgia do her duty
and all may yet be well.
SHIPMENT OF ARMS SOUTHWARD.
The New York Sun makes the following
statement: “Several individuals are now in
New York engaged in purchasing and ship
ping arms to the Southern States. One of
them is from Texas, another from Georgia,
two are from South Carolina, and two or
three others are from Alabama, Louisiana
and Tennessee. The articles they are pur
chasing are mainly revolvers and repeating
or breech-loading rifles; all the models of
muzzle-loading weapons are discarded, and
the purchasers are understood to prefer short
barrels to long ones. Two thousand revolv
ers were sent South in one consignment three
weeks ago, and shipments of two, three and
five hundred revolvers are unpleasantly fre-
guent. The Charleston steamer last week
took a dozen cases of hardware, which was
really a lot of breech-loading rifles destined
for private parties in that city. One dealer
in fire-arms admits that he has more orders
than he can fill for the present, but professes
not to know where the weapons he sells are
going.” _
The Congressional Election.—Some of
our State exchanges call upon ns to know
whether the Legislature passed an act en
abling the people of Georgia to hold an elec
tion for members to Congress. We will an
swer definitely to-morrow morning. At pre
sent we are laboring under the unpleasant
apprehension that there is a “ cat in the meal
tub.” Though a certified copy of the hill
was read at the nominating convention for
the 7th district, we have np. to AW writing
failed to discover the original ‘ ‘ cat ” Search
will be made for it this evening by the Secre
tary of State. Meantime certain friends np
the road had better make arrangements to
stand from under.—Atlanta Constitution, 23d.
Mobmonism in Great Britain.—The Eng
lish papers have of late repeatedly refereed
to the great number and rapid increase of
Mormons in that country. In London, Liv
erpool and other large cities, the Mormons
have congregations, or branches, numbering
hundreds and even thousands of persons.
Bnt in Wales this delusion flourishes more
than in any part of the kingdom. . Contribu
tions to a very considerable amount are taken,
up from time to time-to cany on home work
and to aid emigration, and ship-loads of Mor
mon emigrants are frequently soiling from
English ports for the land of promise.
.The Louisville papers say that Indianians
who have visited that city since the election
declare tha the Democracy can carry TrirUttYin
in November. They were beaten, at the re
cent election, by importation of thousands of
T? ra from Michigan mid Illinois. The De-
cracy made enormous gains in the south-
i part of the State.
NEW PUBLICATIONS.
AN Address to the Colored People of Georgia.
By Ftjak Yolk, a member of the Bar. Savannah
Republican print. - -
The. above is the title of a neat pamphlet
of some thirty odd pages, in which the writer
considers the history and present condition
of the colored race -in Georgia, the relation
in which they stand to the whites, and the
policy which' should guide them in their fu
ture pursuit of “life, liberty and happiness.”
The subject is divided and discussed under
the following heads:
. First.—Whence were yon ?
Second. —"What were you in your natal homes
in Africa?
Third.—Who brought yon here, and how
long ago? ,
Fifth.—Whence was your emancipation,
from the accidents of war, or from design ?
Sixth.—What is your present condition !
Seventh.—What is civilization, and what are
inexorable decrees?
Eighth.—What are your present duties in
view of the past and future ?
Ninth.—Who are they who are urging on
you a departure from your life-long course as
waiters on Providence? ...
Tenth.—The dangers you arem by attempt
ing to mould your future by force, instead of
moving on as heretofore, under obedience
and future tutelage to those who have always
had you in charge.
The address, as the writer remarks in his
preface, “though mnde to the colored people
of Georgia, is nevertheless intended for gen
eral reading,” and furnishes facts and argu
ments that “may be useful in the hands of
intelligent whites to present to the colored
people.” The writer has evidently given the
subject much thought, and addresses himself
to his task in a spirit of kindliness, frankness
and candor, which should command the con
fidence of the people whom he desires to en
lighten and advise for their good. He
evidently imagines that the tacts which he
presents, may have the effect to disabuse to
some extent the inindB of Northern men of
the prejudice and misapprehension in which
they have been so long and thoroughly edu
cated, in reference to the feelings and policy
of the Southern people towards the descend
ants of that stock, which was originally in
troduced among them by New England cu
pidity. In this direction we fear his labors
are wasted. Wliat was once the anti-slavery
pretense, but now the anti-Southern senti
ment and passion of the great mass of the
Northern people, is too chrystalized and
crusted over with prejudice, hatred, envy and
all uncharitableness, to be penetrated or im
pressed by truth and reason. Unfortunately,
on the other hand, the understanding and
convictions of the colored people; when not
biased by the teachings of malignant emis
saries, are shrouded in ignorance, which, we
fear, will only be taught wisdom by sad expo-
LETTER PROM HON. JOHN C.
NICHOLAS.
• 11i.aokshf.ai:. October 22, 18G8.
Elitors Morning Xeics:
Deab Sirs:—I have been repeatedlyjasked to
talk to the people in your part of the Dis
trict.
It would afford me much pleasure to meet
my {fellow-citizens of Chatham and the sur
rounding counties, to mingle my voice with
that of those who ici/l not despair of the Be
public—those who have sworn in their hearts
that, come weal or woe—success or defeat—
loyalty to equal rights, to justice and to the
Constitution is their reasonable service. I am
satisfied that I do my duty more effectually bj-
going to places off the line of railroads, where
explanation and argument may be necessary.
In the counties that are regularly reached by
the mails, the issues involved in this canvass
are understood—they may not be fully appre
ciated.
In my judgment, the result of the recent
elections at the North is cause for redoubled
effort on the part of those who would avoid a
military despotism. It should renew the
manhood of every faltering patriot. We have
all slumbered in the assurance of success—we
have become careless in the certainty imme
diately surrounding us. Our public speakers,
the press, and opr neighbors, have folded
their arms for a little more slumber. Let us
awake to the startling reality of our condi
tion. Let us impress all within our reach,
that not only the substance, but that the very
forms of Bepublican government are at
stake.
Many, it may be, have settled into the be
lief that tho waters will be divided to allow
our passage into the promised land—that our
political Jordan can be crossed dry shod. It
is a delusion, and it may prove fatal. Every
man, of every condition, should be up and
doing. We have an active, disciplined enemy
to fight. Tho country is flooded with the
falsehoods their money has purchased. Every
mail is freighted with suborned testimony
against those who are engaged in the defence
of the Constitution as our fathers gave it to
us. Every Badical tongue reiterates the
falsehoods uttered by Mr. Coltkx—that the
Democratic party are now engaged in a cru
sade to re-establish slavery, and to inaugurate
another civil war.
If these influences are not counteracted,
much harm may result. Such unblushing
falsehood, coupled with the depression that
temporary disaster always imposes on the
lukewarm and the easily discouraged, may
control thousands. Is it not the bounden
duty of ever}' true man to work with a will ?
Until the polls are closed all should be active
and vigilant.
•* Strike for the green graves of your sires—
For God and your native land.”
The arm that falls nerveless now was never
strung to strike tyrants—the tongue that is
paralyzed was never attuned to the utterances
of freedom—the. heart that fails to give the
free, strong, Boman beat, can animate alone
tbe body fitted for chains and servitude.
Very respectfully,
John C. Nicholls.
The Effect of “Stump Speeches.”—A
striking illustration of the value of stump
speeches, remarks the New York Sun, may be
found in the election to Congress of General
Strader, the new Democratic member from
Cincinnati. He made but one speech during
the whole canvass, and here it is: “ Never
mind the weather, boys, so the wind don’t
blow ! ” His opponent, Mr. Eggleston, made
a hundred speeches; more or less, all elabo
rate and eloquent, hat Strader was too much
for him.
A Washington letter says:—“Efforts are
being made by young law students in the
Confederate service during the war for admis
sion to the bar of the Supreme Court of the
District. The Court in general term intends
to abolish the test oath qualification' as appli
cable to such, and admit them on making a
renunciation of the States’ rights doctrine.”
Tho “ renunciation ” is a singular require
ment, especially when it is remembered that
Chief Justice Chase stands on the record ns
among the leading advocates of the doctrine
of State rights.
Test of Population.—In Philadelphia, at
the late election, more votes were counted by
nearly five thousand than were ever polled in
New York city. This would seem very clearly
to indicate that Philadelphia has a larger
population than New York city.
Or what is much more probable, that the
Badical system of colonizing voters was prac
tised on a very large scale.
M. Thiers is said to have lost $190,000
within the last two years by bad speculations
in newspapers.
(From the Charleston' Courier.]
To the People of South Carolina.
Edlow-Citizens:—As members of your Execu
tive State Committee, a body which represents
nearly every white citizen of South Carotin
we feel it our duty to invoke your e “rnes
forts in the cause of peace and the presei
tion of order. We beg you to unite w*B»
in reprobating those recent acte of
resulting in the death of Martin, Randolph
and Nance, by which a few lawless men have
■brought'discredit on the character of onr
neople, though provocation in these cases
may have been given. No cause can prof—
which calls murder to its' assistance,
which looks'to assassination for success.
“The idea of assassination,” said George Mc
Duffie, “is so absolutely abhorrent to all the
feelings, the Christian feelings of modem
times, and of such pernicious tendency, that
I feel it to be my duty thus unequivocally
to express my utter abhorrence of any pro
ceeding that may have the remotest tendency
to suggest it. Such a course is not only ob
noxious to the abhorrence of a very honor
able man, from its moral atrocity, but from
its political tendency.”
Lftten to tho words of that patriot, which
soem to come from his grave, to warn the
people whom he loved so devotedly. We can
add nothing to the weight of this gTeat au
thority. We can only appeal to you, to suj
port the laws, to preserve the peace and 1
denounce those crimes which have so recently
been committed in some portions of our State.
We speak in behalf of the conservative and
law-abiding portion of the people, who con
stitute, we feel assured, nearly piir entire
white population, and in their name WO ex
press emphatically our abhorrence of snoh
acts ; and we pledge ourselves to give all the
assistance in our power to suppress them.
We adjure all who love their State, of all
classes, white and black, to be peaceable and
quiet, to lend their efforts to promote harmo
ny and to quell dissension. We a@)t those
who are opposed to ns, politically, to unite
with us to check and discountenance all in
cendiary language, whether uttered in public
or private, and to join ns in the efforts we are
making for the preservation of peace, the su
premacy of law and the maintenance of order.
Lawlessness will endanger the peace of the
whole State, and will surely bring disaster to
all classes. Let us all then, however we ma y
differ in polities, devote all o»r energies to
maintain the good character of onr Sfette and
to promote u better feeling among our whole
people. . Wade Hampton, Chairman.

TUe Tlioiim. County Fair.
The Agricultural Fair on Thursday last was
a success, although the first ever held in
Thomas county and gotten up in haste. The
people of both sexes turned out generally,
and we were pleased to notice, made the best
of the occasion, enjoying the proceedings
and entering into a spirited competition for
the prizes, They listened with interest to ad
dresses by CoL A. T. McIntyre and Ho»- Jas.
L. Seward on the subject ot agriculture, and
the various industrial pursuits, in which those
gentlemen eloquently discussed the advan
tages, and established the propriety, respecta
bility, dignity, and necessity of labor, and
eloquently appealed to the young of both
sexes to show themselves true men and wo
men by entering cheerfully and wifb alacrity
upon the duties of life, and preparing them
selves to fill with honor tbe high positions
now occupied by their parents.
The articles on exhibition were not as nu
merous as the wealth, energy and enterprize
of the county would warrant, but this was
owing, in a great manner, to the novelty of
the enterprise, many persons hesitating to
place the result of their labors in a not well
understood competition. We are glad to re
port, however, that many did understand and
appeciate the importance of the Fair, and
patronized it with all their energy. Some of
the adjoining counties also entered the lie's,
and Decatur bore off the prijjo for the best
home manufactured buggy, while Lowndes,
through tho industry of our highly respected
coteinporary of the Valdosta Tones, threw
everything in the shade in tbe fowl depart
ment. Lowndes also bore off the palm for
confectioneries and triumphed with a mam
moth cake, from the bakery of Mr. Hardee at
Valdosta.
We could not undertake to comment npon
the various productions of the numerous com
petitors of Thomas, for the want of room,
but they were interesting in the highest de
gree, and reflected great credit upon her in
dustrious farmers and mechanics. The cot
ton and woolen goods entered by the ladies
were admirable, lor home manufacture, while
some of the finer fabrics, and especially
specimens of needlework by the ladies would
surprise even a fastidious Broadway belle.
The stock department was small, but we no
ticed some fine horses, hogs and cows. Our
farmers are beginning to appreciate the ad
vantages of fine stock, however, and we have
no doubt that the next Fair will show great
improvement in this department os well as in
every other.
The fine arts were also represented to some
extent; but we hope our artists of both sexes
will prove less timid when another opportu
nity is presented to exhibit specimens of their
skill.
For the reports of the several committees
and the awarding of premiums or diplomas,
we refer our readers to the proceedings to be
published next week.—Enterprise.
It is not generally known that the leaves of
a geranium are an excellent application for
cuts, where the skin is rubbed off, and other
wounds of that kind. One or two leaves
must be braised and applied to the part, and
the wound will be cicatrized in a short time.
