BELL, of Forsyth. J. D. WADDELL, of Cobb. Fellow-Citizens of Chatham! This day is full of evil or good to us. The one or the other will inevitably follow our own action... “Men are at some time masters of their fate. ” This is that time. IF WE WILL, we can turn the tide of evil at this hoar. But it must be by ACTION. Give one day to your country ! If you •v, * t j' i ~3S ~ feel that you have no country, give it to your families. If you have no family give it to your ■ friends—your neighbors ! Give it to HUMANITY !—TO JUSTICE AND EIGHT ! ! Let no man say I can do nothing. It is not true. '‘No man liveth unto himself.” Every citizen can influence another to do right. The benighted freedmen are this day to be led on to their own ruin and to youe own unless we throw ourselves in between them and’ their fete. And we must work. No patriot can fold his arms and take Inn ease this day. Leave yourconnting rooms, your offices, yourplaces of toil everywhere, and all men, and go to the polls early and vote, and there remairt and help to guide the ignorant and erring, Many freedmen will yds- day vote for Geant and Colfax. who, with a kind word from a white man, whom they know and confide in, would rote to preserve the Constitution and our free dom. -No citizen has any deeper interest in the result of the election to-day than any other. And it is therefore the duly of every man to work to the extent of his ability to save the country. The place to work is at the pods! If we cannot save the whole country, let us keep our own beloved State free from dis grace and ruin. We have at least the sem blance- of freedom left .in Georgia, and we must not allow her this day to be debauched. ANOTHER RADICAL FALSEHOOD. A hand-bill posted about the streets yester day addressed to the “ colored voters,” sets forth the following falsehood: “ On the elec tion to-day depends the validity of the Re construction Acts, by which you were enfran chised.’’ This is simply a carpet-bagger’s lie. Every intelligent colored mnn in Chatham cohnty knows that the Reconstruction acts did not . . i give him the privilege of voting. There is no such provision in the Reconstruction acts, nor in. the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution, the ratification of which Was forced upon the States. The Re construction acts neither gave freedom nor the right to vote. Emancipation was legal ized by the act of tho white Constitutional Legislature of Georgia. Suffrage was illegal ly- conferred upon the freedman by the Mili- tary Provisional Government, and has yet to be legalized by. act of the State. Acquies cence on the pact of the white people of Georgia is ;not likely to be induced by the colored people arraying themselves en masse on the side'of their enemies, andr using the ballot in a spirit of hostility to their rights and interests. DO NOT LOSE TOUR VOTE. If a battle were to be fought on Tuesday to decide the vital issues involved in the elec tion which takes place on that day, no true Georgian—no man true to the principles of the Constitution, true to his race, to his fam ily and his own honor—would be absent from the ranks—from the post of duty. The duty to cast his vpte is no less imperative. It may be a day of victory—then he should be known j fjg ^ ^ be the last Opportunity will ever have of voting for a Constitutional President. Then he will at least have.left the consciousness of having performed his duty. <—: — . Important Decision.—In a suit recently brought in the Adams County Court, at Nat chez, Miss., against a man named Surget, ■who was Confederate Provost Marahal in 1862’ for $120,000. tho value of certain cot— ton destroyed by his order to prevent its falling-intq the hands of the Union forces, the jury, 1 after a long deliberation, brought in a verdict for the defendant. As the question Involved in this suit is one of the most im portant growing out of the late war, the ' plaintiffs counsel have given notice of ah. ap peal tq -.the High Court of Mississippi, and intend to cany the case to the United States Supreme Court if necessary. ^A Youpg’Aetist.—We havebeen shown a book of comic sketches, drawn by Master Robert Bullock, son of Dr." Bullock, of Sa- may yet equal Crowquill or Cruikshanks. We clip - the above paragraph from the Atlanta' Constitution. The lad alluded to is a prohusing youth of fourteen years, who, at a_ very early age, manifested- a taste as well as talent for drawing. With cultivation he will make an artist of merit. AN INFAMOUS RADICAL FRAUD. A prominent white Radical was circulating in the streets yesterday a placard addressed to Irish Democrats, purporting to give an extract from a speech delivered by General Frank P. IJlair, in St. Louis, in 1856, “in the Fenian Brotherhood and to the Irish people.' ’ ... This infamous slander bears the brand of falsehood upon its face, and has been de nounced by Gen. Blair, and by the press of St. Louis, as a base forgery. In the summer of 1856, the time at which the speech is said to have been delivered, the Fenian Order was not publicly known, if it existed at all in the United States—certainly no Fenian'proces sion took place in that year in St. Louis. No such words were ever uttered by Geii. Blair as those attributed to him, before a Fenian procession or any other procession. Know-Nothingism was’rampant throughout the North and West in 1856, and Schuyler Colfax, a Grand High Priest of the Order, was holding his dark-lantern Lodges, and concocting schemes of proscription, perse- cation and disfranchisement of Irishmen and Catholics. Rising to the sublimity of Radical impudence, the perpetrators of this vile forgery against General Blair now have the audacity to urge Irishmen to vote for Schuy ler Colfax, the leader of the Know-Noth ings, for Vice-Presi-dent shall be granted by that Court By this de cision thousands of■-naturalized cif ha Amrimd. of th to'vote, to-day, on a mere technicality of law,if not by an illegal decision of a Radical Judge. This outrage upon adopted citizens is perpe trated in the interest of a party who have il legally and wantonly forced universal negro suffrage upon the South, tin violation-of law and of thejCgp^jtution of the Stsy|pand of the United States. Let foreign bom citi zens bear in mind to-day that the 'Radicals, who, in outrage of the principles of represen tative Republican Government, marshall to the polls the ignorant, half savage negroes from the rice-fields of the South, none of whom can read and write, and few of whom 1 know even their.own names orages or, what government or ballot mean, disfranchise and rejectee white,free-born naturalized citizen, because in obedience to his • convictions of right he voles the Democratic ticket Irish men were good enough to fight for the Union and the flag of their adopted, country, but are unworthy to vote for a - constitutional President. The Oath that Colfax has Taken. Mr. Colfax has denied that he was ever a Know Nothing. We now charge that he was a member of that proscriptive order, and that as such he has taken upon himself the follow ing oath: L Schuyler Colfax, of South Bend, in the State of Indiana, a native bom citizen of the United States, and of Protestant faith, in the presence of Almighty God, and these wit nesses, do solemnly promise and swear that I will not vote, nor give my influence for any man, for any office in the gift of the people, unless he be an American born citizen, in favor of Americans ruling America, nor if he be a Roman Catholic. In the presence of Almighty God and these witnesses, I do sol emnly swear that I will when elected or ap pointed to any official station conferring on me the power to do so, remove all foreigners, aliens, or Roman Catholics from office or place, and that I will in no case appoint such to any office or place in my gift Not only was Colfax a Know Nothing but a leading one, and as such took a leading part in the celebrated Philadelphia Know Nothing National Convention. We are not advised as to whether Gen. Grant is a Know Nothing— that is, we mean, in the party sense of the term—but citizens who are of foreign birth or the Catholic faith can be at no loss to under stand what they have to expect from Schuyler Colfax. Can any foreigner, can any Catholic, give his snpport to snch a candidate and snch a party?—Louisville Courier. GIVE ONE DAY TO YOUR COUNTRY. We observe that in other cities of the State the citizens are preparing to close then- places of business on Tuesday and devote the entire day to the election. The Execu tive Committee of Chatham have adopted a resolution requesting our merchants to close their stores and offices on that day in order that their employees may devote the day to the interests of the State and country. We sincerely hope that this suggestion will be unanimously adopted, and that ; the people of Savannah and Chatham county will prove by their exertions in behalf of Democratic prin ciples and Constitutional government on that day that they are in cordial sympathy with the Democracy of the State, who in every city, 'town and county, with an earnestness and zeal unprecedented in the history of bur State, are exerting themselves in the employ ment of every proper means in their power to swell the majority for Seymour and Blair. -:-aa young democrats, Many of you will to-day cast your first vote for President. The future of the country is peculiarly yours. All your hopes are staked upon the issues of this day. Each of you can influence one or more votes. You should feel yourselves responsible for every vote that yon can control. Let no one be content with casting his single vote. Work ! Work one whole day for your country. Two Months Free.—The publishers of Burke’s Weekly for Boys and Girls propose to send it two months free to all those whose subscriptions reach them before the 15th of November—that is, they will receive the pa per fourteen months for S2 00. This paper should have a welcome in every Southern home. The little folks approve it highly, and watch eagerly for its appearance every week. It will be sent either weekly, or in monthly parts,—the price of either being $2 a year. Specimen numbers will he sent on applica tion to the publishers, -J.

New York, October 29.—The steamer Ea gle, from Havana, brings a copy of a procla mation issued by the republican revolution ary committee. It breathes the most intense revolutionary spirit. The document recites acts of despotism of the government of Queen Isabella, and concludes with a strong appeal to Cubans to pronounce for’ a federal repub lic. “We pronounce for liberty, equality, fraternity—Cubans and Spaniards. We de mand popular suffrage without coercion—a dissolution of the permanent army—estab lishment of- a national militia—justice far all classes—municipal; indg>&dence—lfl^tj’ of., the press—liberty "of discussion—freedom of commerce—freedom of industry—freedom to emigrate, and abolition of the monopoly of slavery. Let ns defend our liberty with dig nity and respect all opinions; let us embrace the" opportunity to secure the freedom of Cu ba. We greet the victors of Spain. Viva Spanish liberty—viva liberty of Cuba—viva a federal republic.” { Pevved Churches Denounced.—In the Epis copal General Convention, on Wednesday, Mr. Walsh said: ■ -.u “I understand the Oriental Church is look ing at some things in this Church with great distrust. It is allowing an auctioneer to come into the house of God and sell the pews year by year. They look upon that with horror. I should not care if an earthquake were to come and knock all these ehurenes down that are only private chapels.” s _ . ; The next day the Committee on Canons re ported an amended canon making it unlaw ful to hold public sale of pews in any conse crated church or chapel. This, in the form of a resolution condemning snch sales, was, after some debate, adopted. ’ The Radical City Councils of Phtladel- phla Attempt to take away the Patronage of the Mayor.—Philadelphia, October 29.— The present City Councils, being opposite in politics to the Mayor elect, to-day passed a bill through one branch, taking from the Mayor a portion of his official patronage, viz: the appointment of operators, &c., on the city telegraph. A bill will be introduced next week asking the Legislature to take the whole control of the police force from the Mayor and vest it in the Commissioners. As the Legislature will be Republican the bill will probably pass. Within four hours’ ride of Montreal by rail there is a colony of from 20,000 to 25,000 Highlanders. The county of Glengarry, on the eastern frontier of Upper Canada, is full of them. In the back settlements they retain their ancient language, sing-the Gaelic songs and have their Gaelic preaching. About half of them are Catholic and him Protestant. The Glengarry men are renowed for their size and strength. It is said that the townships of Kenyon and Lochiel alone could turn out a thousand Highlanders—not a man of them under six feet in his stockings. - 3— - - -WILLETT.—OR tho 28th of Octo- | G. V. N.
