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. .

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.
