The Rome Courier says unless early frost or *ome unseen calamity befalls the cotton, there u ill be the largest crop ever grown In that sec- ti >n. There seems to be a general apprehen sion among the planters that they will not be able to gather what is grown. Mr. Thomas Green Duggan, a highiy respect ed citizen of Sandersville, died there on the evening of the 24th ult. lie was well known throughout Middle and Eastern Georgia. The Milledgeville Recorder records a markable freak of a Baldwin county man, in his crazy thirst for drink. After pawning every article of personal property he ciaild dispose of. he tore the lightning rod from the chimney of his house, and actually pawned that to get money to buy liquor. The Tribune says that Rome is making quite an enviable reputation as a stock market. The traffic for live stock has increased there steadi lv for the past year. A discussion took place at Columbus on the Gubernatorial situation between two colored men. “Dr.” L. W. West appeared for Colquitt and J. R. Treadwell for Norwood. The doctor K ,,t completely away with his opponent. The Columbus Times is of the opinion that tli • two-thirds rule is beneficial in preventing tl„- success of “a bare majority,” which is too frequently obtained through fraud. But that an , whelming" majority, such as that at At lanta, was an expression of popular sentiment which no convention could safely disregard. A correspondent, “Observer,” writes making valuable suggestions to farmers in re gard to greasing the machinery of their cotton gins. He says: “As the season for ginning cotton is now on us, it might be well to suggest to the farmers not to U3e any kind of oil about their gins. Tallow is the thing. It will not heat like oil, nor is it so liablo to combustion. Most of the fires that originate during ginning can be attributed to the use of some kind of oil. Remember, tallow ! s tho thing to grease with, and if your farming friends and readers will follow the advice given they can gin with safety.” The News says that not a mechanic in Al bany wl*o wants work i3 out of employ ment. The Dublin Gazette announces the death by •ightning of Mr. Hugh Gil (is, a very old and highly respootesl citizen of Montgomery coun ty. He was in the field with his little son pulling fodder when the disaster occurred. His shoes were torn from his feet, and one of them lias not yet been found. His little son was knocked down by a splinter from a tree which was struck at the same time. The Dublin Gazette states that a few nights since Mr. Fordham, a barkeeper at Stephens vilie, Wilkinson county, was walking iti his bleep and fell from a second story window and badly hurt himself. He dropped on an old table which was lying with its legs upwards, or the fall perhaps would have not been so in jurious and painful. Thomasville possesses in the person of Mas ter Willis Parnell a li;tle boy who, if he contin ues os he has begun, will prove an honor to his State. Be picked up two 55 bills on the streets • >f that city a few days ago, and immediately took them to the Town Marshal, who soon found the owner. It is sincerely to be hoped c hat the little fellow's strict sense of honesty will not be blunted by contact with a world which, to say the least, is not over squeamish. The Hinesville Gazette comes to us in deep mourning this week on account of the death of Mrs. Isabella Bradwell, mother of Capt. S. D. Bradwell, editor and proprietor of that paper. Eon. J. H. Polhill and Colonel James Staple- ton have been nominated by the Democrats of Jefferson county rs candidates for the Legisla ture. Thomasville Enterprise: “On Friday night last two of the chain gang made their escape. The gang had cut down the hill at the Walaeii bridge, the little one near Mr. T. J. Young’s, and were cuttiug down the one at Mr. Frank Winn's. At night they were guarded aud chained, the chain passing above the -hackles of each one and each end of the chain locked to a tree To the uninitiated it would -eem impossible for them to escape, but unless 'he chain is drawn very tight the job J.' as easily accomplished as that of putting .on and off their trousers with -it removing the shackles. Perhaps some will doubt that this can be done. We do uot know how this is accomplished, but the gang find it not at all difficult. The two that escaped were Cromartie and Andrew Jack<on. The former was serving out a seven m mth-s' term for sugar stealing, aud would have been free j.; a few more days. Andrew, however, had work ahead of him. He was one of the fellows that attempted to kill Mr. Fo'som some months ago aud made his escape. H.- was arrested lest spring in Worth county and returned to the authorities here. His original time was one year, we believe, and • sjapirg early after being sentenced, uni the escape doubling the un- expired time. his term l»ecame a long one.

Had he st-rved out all th s, there are other offense* whicii would probably return him for a long time Why the whole force did not get away w- do not understand, as the feat of escaping from the chain was as easy to others as to those two.

By Telegraph to the Morning Nercs. Worcester, Mass., September 1.—The Democratic State Convention met in Me chanics’ Hall, and was called to order at 11:15 o’clock by Col. Jonas H. French, of Gloucester, who said he had been requested by the united committee of thirty to per form this duty. He requested the members of the State Central Committee to take seats upon the platform, and all other delegates to be seated elsewhere. Col. French said he knew he would be allowed one moment to express his con gratulatlons upon the assembly of the united Democracy of Massachusetts. [Applause.] No longer representing frag ments of the party, the Democracy of Massa chusetts pledge renewed fealty to one an other he-t*, and now they turn their backs on the past. Henceforth all dissensions shall disappear, and hereafter we shall pre sent an unbroken front. Major McCafferty, of Worcester, was ap pointed temporary Chairman. At this point General Butler entered the hall, and the convention at once sprang to Its feet and cheer upon cheer was eiveu, to which the General only bowed his acknowl edgment from the platform. Major McCafferty was received with ap plause, and the bark of a dog which joined in the greeting, made considerable laughter. He said: “The bark of a dog may be a good omen. Geese cackled when Rome was saved. I thank you for the honor conferred and congratulate the Democrats that in solid column they will move on to victory con sequent; that now has come tho day of re demption upon the blunders of tho Ilepub lican party, when they presented the name of a candidate with ’a solid character for the place Washington occupied. In conclusion, Major McCafferty con gratulated the conveution upon the selec tion of General Hancock as their candidate for the Presidency. Mr. Dyer, of Braintree, was chosen tem porary Secretary of the convention, and a committee on credentials was appointed also a committee on permanent organiza tion. Mr. Reed, of Charlestown, asked for a speech from General Butler. The Chair man merely replied : “In the sweet bye and-bye,” to which Mr. Reed replied : “Now is the accepted time.” After some further talk the subject was dropped, al though it was a great disappointment to many members. The Committee on Permanent Organiza tion recommended that Hon. P. A.Collins, of Boston, be declared permanent Chairman which was received with enthusiasm. Mr. Collins addressed the convention in a speech of twenty minutes, and was vocifer ously applauded throughout. A committee was then appointed ou resolutions. Mr. Tarbox, of Lawrence, offered the fol lowing: Jie.so!ved, That the functions of the com mittees appointed respectively by the Me chanics Hall aud Faneuil Hall conventions of last year now terminate, and a joint com mittee of thirty, hithertoselected from such committees, constitute the Democratic State Committee, to hold office until the first day ot July, 1881, with power to fill vacancies, if any shall occur. Mr. Tarbox was called to the platform and said: “We are a united Democratic party lu Massachusetts once more. This is a matter of congratulation to every Demo crat. We have no .quarrel to prosecute against any Democrat who stands loyal to the national nominees.” The question was demanded and the reso lution w*as adopted by an overwhelming majority. The Committee on Credentials reported that there were 1,345 delegates present, representing 327 cities and towns. There were no contesting delegations and the re port was accepted. At 12:30 p. m. the con vention took a recess. The convention reassembled this afternoon at 1:30. After the announcement of the names of Vice Presidents, Mr. Haggerty, of Lowell, put in Domination for Governor ei-Govemor Wm. Gaston, of Boston. This nomination w r as strongly opposed by Mr. Allen, of Holyoke, amid great confusion. Upon motion of Mr. Tarbox, of Lawrence, it was resolved to ballot for Governor. Mr. Brady, of Attleboro, offered an amend ment to Mr. Tarbox’s motion, that the con vention nominate General B. F. Butlen of Lowell, for Governor by acclamation. The motion was made amid loud cheers and con fusion. Mr. Allen, of Holyoke, moved to recon sider the motion, whereby the convention voted to proceed to ballot, At this point the Chairman presented General Butler to the convention. General Butler said: “I rise to speak on the sub ject of the reconsideration cf an altei native, being the use of my name by acclamation. A fair and free ballot is the pic Ige of De mocracy to the country. Then there Is ar- other consideration. When I say a thing I mean it, and when I mean thing I say it. I have declared that under no consideration would I be a subject for an elective office under the in coming administration, for reasons which I have deemed sufficient. This is my position before the country. First., I have come out from the Republican party, and I have stated my reasons for it. If these reasons would have any weight with the republic—they should have been the result of careful thought an 1 not a bid for office. Second, if I diu stand as a candidate, men would talk about my ahanging ideas, and the result would be injurious to the united party. Let me fight one year in the ranks, or three, or four, or five years, if necessary. One other reason I will state to you. For a year or two I have sought by the aid of the Demo cratic party to reform abuses in the State. A portion of the Democrats for honest reasons have opposed this u=e of the Demo cratic party, but I trust they have done so with no considerable bitterness. I have learned that it is impossible to accomplish the object ia view without a united Democracy, until the party, moved by the principle* of Jefferson and Hancock, presents a 6olid front to the opposition. There were some hard feelings in these contests. They have passed away from my mind, and I hope they will pass away from the minds of others. I will never do anything which can bring them up again. You have many good men. Select one to go with tbe name of Hancock. Gentlemen, I thank you for your kindly weLuogie, and you, Mr. Presi dent, for the warm words in which you in troduced me. I 6hall not be yojjr candi date.” After some further discussion Mr. Burke, of Boston, put in nomination Charles P. Thompson, of Gloucester. Voting at once began and Mr. Thompson had a majority of tbe votes cast on the first ballot. His nomi nation was thereupon made unanimous, with much enthusiasm. The ticket was then completed by the nocUnetjon of Alpha E. Ihompsop for Lieutenant Governor, Michael F. Donohue for Secretary of State, and Francis J. Parker for Treasurer. Upon the report of the Committee on ffesolutioDS a platform was adopted en dorsing the Cincinnati platform and candi dates. asserting that the Republican party is sectional £ ml not national, and that its fanning of the embers of sectional strife retards the prosperity of tbe coun try ; favoring manhood euifnjge and demanding the removal of unreasonable restrictions upon the franchise; protesting against the law, which nukes the payment of a paltry tax a condition of the exercise of a citizen’s ri B Ut to vote ; demanding re- foims in State taxation aad congratulating the Democratic party of tho common we? 1th upon the honorable settlement of the differ ences heretofore existing within it. The convention then adjourned. Trenton, N. J., September — The Democratic 8tate Convention for the nomi nation of a candidate for Governor and Presidential electors was called to order at noon to day by the Chairman of the 8tate Executive Cornjnittee. Hon. Leon Abbott was made teipppraiT Chairman. Upon taking the chair rn^de an ad dress in which be s^ia that the Democratic party occupied an aggressive position, not being placed under the neces sity of defending its candidates against a party that, from the start, is on the defen sive in regard to its candidate. The impor tance of the contest ip the wtate was dwelt upon at length, and he showed that tfce most important State question Is the elec tion of a Governer and State Legislature. After tbe appointment of the usual com mittees, the convention took a recess. The Democratic 8tate Convention effected a permanent organization this afternoon by the election of Hon. Leon Abbott as perma nent Chairman.

Culmination of a Feud Commenced Over Twenty Year* Ago—Shot Dead From a Window. By Telegraph to the Morning News. Louisville, Ky., September L—A special from Shelby City to the Courier-Journal says: “Samuel Johnson was shot and in stantly killed by James Wheeler last even ing, at Danville Junction. This is the cul mination of an old feud, which commenced in 1859 at Liberty, between Samuel Johnson’s father, Biel Owsley, James Wheeler and several other parties, in which Johnson was killed by Owsley. Young Sam, then a boy only four years old, as he grew older swore he would kill Owsley and Wheeler at the first opportunity. Owsley- died nine years ago. Johnson met Wheeler for the first time last fall, aud at once as saulted him. Bystanders interfered and prevented Johuson from accomplishing his purpose. Nothing more was thought of the matter until two months ago, when John son appeared at Danville Junction, where Wheeler was at work, and fired three shots at him, without warning. None of the shots took effect, and Wheeler made his escape. Since then Wheeler armed Limself and has been on the lookout for Lis enemy. To-day Johnson, accompa nied by three other men, came to the junc tion looking for Wheeler, under the pretext of wanting to compromise the matter. Wheeler, not believing in their sin cerity, kept out of their sight, and finally went to his room and from the window watched their movements, and just as Johnson stepped from the rail road upon the platform leading to the hotel he fired one barrel of his gun loaded with buckshot into Johnson’s right side. John son sank upon the platform and died in a few moments. Wheeler was arrested and taken to Danville jail.” THE PANAMA CANAL. THE COMMERCIAL ASPECT THE ENTERPRISE. OF The Chief of the Bureau ot Statistics Views the Project in an Unfavora ble Light. By Telegraph to the Morning News. Washington, September L—A report on the commercial aspect of the proposed interoceanic canal, by Joa. Nimmo, Chief of the Bureau of Statistics, has just been issued. In his summary of facts ascer tained, and the conclusion reached in his report, Mr. Nimmo sajs that the shipping which would annually pass through the canal would amount to but 1,500 vessels, or 1,622,000 tons, Instead of 6.000,000, as estimated by De Lesseps; that the traffic of the canal would probably be confined almost exclusively to steam ves sels: that in the event of the construction of the canal the commerce between the Pacific ports of the United States and Europe would probably seek pas sage through the proposed’ canal in steam vessels; that the shipment of guano and nitrate of soda, amounting to eight hundred and ten thousand tons annually, would continue to follow the route via Cape Horn; that the trade of Chili with the Atlantic ports of the United States and with Europe via Cape Horn, amounting to three hundred and eighty-five thousand tons of shipping annually, would probably continue to pur sue that route, and that the entire tea sup ply of the Atlantic seaboard States will eventually be brought from the country where produced to San Francisco and thence overland by rail. Mr. Nimmo’s report is, therefore, on the whole, unfavorable to the construction of the proposed canal, or at least the anticipa tions of its projectors as to its fiuaneiul sue cess. _ ENTRY OF GEN.

Bald* and murders Near El Paso Victoria Wishes to make a Condi tional Surrender. By Telegraph to the Morning News. Denver, September 1.—A Tribune 1 s Santa Fe special says: “Advices have been re ceived from the south that a few scattered bands of Apaches are raiding the ranches about sixty miles from El Paso and murdering is reported. Victoria’s main body is still in the Candelaria Mountains. Advices from Mexico are to the effect that Victoria has requested of the Mexican Government a meeting for treaty purposes, with a conditional surrender in view. The Mexican Government would not grant the request without consulting the United States Government. This move of Victoria’s indicates that the forces of New Mexico and Texas combined are too much for him, and knowing that the United States will accept nothing but an unconditional surrender, which would likely result in his death, he wishes to make a conditional surrender to the Mexicans, which can hardly be accomplished, as Gov ernor Tereasius, who will have much influ ence in the matter, is a heavy loser by Victoria’s raids.” THE GENEVA REGATTA.

London, September 1.—In the Honse of Commons last night the bill to permit the burial of Dissenters in all church-yards and cemeteries without Church of England ser vices, passed its third reading. In consequence of the rejection by the House of Lords of the bill for tbe registra tion of voters in Ireland, the {rish members of the House of Commons will resist a sec- ond reading of the appropriation bill, which was fixed for to-day. Mr. Parnell will in sist that the essential clauses of the regis tration bill shall be tacked on to the appro priation bill. To Mr. Parnell’s proposition, Mr. Foster, Chief Secretary for Ireland, replied that he was willing to make the registration bill a government measure next year; that he can not adopt Mr. Parnell’s suggestion, which could ouly be resorted to in extreme cases. Mr. Parnell, therefore, objected to the second reading of tfie appropriation bill, which objection, according to the forms of procedure, postpones the bill until to-mor row, thus adding a day to the session.

New Orleans, September 1.—The labor ers In all the cotton presses here are on a strike for an advance in wages. The cotton press proprietors say the strike is the result of efforts on the part of certain agitators to force extreme prices, materially In excess of those which have heretofore been paid. It is stated that some of these laborers have been paid as high as $50 per week, though the normal wages have been $50 to $60 per month, and the proprietors would willingly pay $60 per month for competent laborers and guarantee steady employment.

New Orleans, September 1.—Statistics published by tbe Price Current show that there has been a material increase in §11 branches of trade at this port during the past year. By Telegraph to the Morning Betas. Richmond, Va., September 1.—The case of Capt. John 8. Wise, charged with being about to engage in a duel with Geo. Ben. Johnson, came up in the Police Court to day. Capt. W'ise, who had kept out of the way of arrest since the 1st of last month, sur rendered yesterday and was present In court to-day. 8everal witnesses were examined in relation to the apprehended hostile meet ing, after which Capt. Wise, after stating that as it was now certain he would be placed under bonds, said he desired to give a full statement of the whole matter, as he thought it was time the public should know about it. He then recited the story of his being black balled last wiuter by the Westmoreland Club, when he was Honored with fifteen black balls for being a Readjuster and friend of Gen. Mabone. That he had on the stump and iu a public letter denounced the fifteen as eowards and assassins, and had insulted two of them who had come in his way. That recently he had been Informed of a conver sation in connection with the blackballing which reflected on him, and that a corre spondence had been commenced. Capt. Wise then read the whole corres pondence, which Is quite voluminous, and in the course of which he denounced all who had blackballed him as cowards and dastards, who bad stabbed him in the dark. Dr. Johnson, In a letter to Capt- Wise, stated his connection with the affair, and demanded a full retraction of the insulting language used by Capt. W'lse, to which the latter replied, declining to retract the in sult and reaffirming it with full force and effect. . Captain Wise stated that he had remained out of the city In order to give any of the aggrieved parties an opportunity to com municate with him, as his whereabouts were sufficiently well known for that pur pose, but that now he consi4ered the mat ter as a farce and at an end. The Folic i Justice placed him under bonds in the same amount ($5,000) as he had Dr. Johnson.

A Paris dispatch to the Manchester Guardian says: “Premier de Freycinet is losing ground rapidly. His silence under the attacks and his protracted absence in crease the dissatisfaction. Unless he pub licly expresses his determination to dissolve all non-authorised congregation^ his ielgn will soon end. There is no doubt that for the present M. Gambetta, President of the Chamber of Deputies, has forsaken him.” Paris, September 1.—The police found the Jesuit schools In Paris, Lille, Toulouse, Montpelier and elsewhere evacuated, except by civil representatives.

THE GUBERNATORIAL CANVASS A Liberty County Farmer’s Reason for Supporting Gov. Colquitt Liberty County, August 30. — Editor Morning News : As a citizen of Georgia, con cerned for her welfare, allow me a little space in your paper to express my views on the present phase of our State politics, was in favor of Governor Colquitt before the convention met, and he is my choice still. Yet I had no antipathy to Mr. Lester, who was his competitor, for the nomina tion; nor have I any antipathy to Mr. Nor wood, who competes with him for the elec tion. I do not design to disparage them, but I hope Colquitt will be elected. I could hardly have been reckoned among the Gov ernor’s most enthusiastic admirers so late as about te|i months ago, but I thought him a man of more than average integrity among our public men, and when, as the time drew nigh for a new election, I discovered disposition to blacken his character and to cast odium upon him, my indignation was excited, and the assaults upon him drove me to his standard. Not that I think any official ought to be exempted from criti cism. That is the right o{ freemen and s bulwark of freedom. But let the criticism be sincere and fair. It seemed to me that certain parties had conceived a desire to oust the Governor from his station without any regard to his merits or demerits, and then, as an afterthought, hit upon certain charges against him as pretexts for an oppo sition which they had predetermined to make, rather than as reasons conducting them to such a course. This 1 thought in sincere, and it disposed me to receive all their accusations cumgrano sal it. Then I offset their abuse with what I thought the general good character the Governor had sustained. When a man is accused of crime, his char acter can go to the jury as evidence. I know some whom I might be willing to convict on comparatively scanty direct testimony, be cause general bad character proclaims them capable of crime ; but I know others whose general good character creates such a strong presumption of innocence that, in order to convict, the proof must be overwhelming. I thought Colquitt’s character such a barrier as required something more than the pas sionate assertions of professional politicians to surmount. Again, the animus of some—1 say not all —of his accusers made me chary of credit ing their charges. What the animus was, may be inferred from the fact that they went so far as to taunt the Governor with being a Sunday school lecturer, etc. Now, T thinlr the duty of a Governor is to give his atten tion faithfully to the duties of his office. This is not only a patriotic, but a Christian duty. And if the Governor allowed the in terests of the State to go to ruin, in order that he might look after Sunday schools, etc., it seems to me, he was, in so far, dere lict In Christian duty. But I am not aware that such is the fact. And if, in addition to a faithful discharge of his public trust, he could also do good work in connection with Sunday £choois, it i£ so v^uch njore !n his favor, and the effort to prejudice him Id the minds of the people.for it revealed an ani mus which made me suspect the opposition. It is, indeed contemptible for men to seek to ride into office on a religious reputa tion gotten up for the purpose. But it will be a dark day for tfie country when Christian character 6hall be a bar to pro motion. The Good Book says, “When the righteous are in authority the people re joice ; but when the wicked beareth rule the people mourn.” 1 nave giv^n some of the reasons which In fluence me to prefer Governor Colquitt, i have not finished, but the article grows long, aud I must desist. Possibly, at a fu ture time, I may resume the subject. I hope the Ego has not been thrust offensively for ward, though I fear it will seem so. I have not meant it to be. I have given, somewhat in detail, tho operations of my own mind. Others can canvass tnera aDd decide for themselves whether and wherein they are faulty. Civis. Flashes From the Wires. Anthony Barbarie, of New Orleans, aged ten years, was crushed to death on a switch by a train on the Morgan Railroad yesterday. Henry Betterman was knocked overboard from a derrick at Port Eads yesterday and drowned. The steamship Herder, which arrived at New York yesterday, brought $1,765,600 in foreign coin from Rurope, New York Solid for Hancock. The following is a copy of a letter re ceived from a well known citizen of New York by General Trimble of Baltimore Binghamton, N. Y., August 2G.- Gen. I. R. Trimble—Dear ; General Your letter of June 30 is before me. Our Hancock clubs were not organized when your letter reached me, and I could not answer definitely your inquiries as to General Hancock’s prospects in our State. Sjnce then we huve effected in this State a complete organization, and our numerous Hancock clubs arc under ood discipline and full of enthusiasm, lany Republicans, particularly soldiers of the Union army, are coming forward and enrolling themselves for the noble hero and soldier, and I can assure you that New YorR will give a splendid ma jority for Hancock and English. Your speech I have read a dozen times and with increasing pleasure. I can assure you that the sentiments expressed in speeches of the Union Generals that I have listened to are in every respect stronger as regards the wrongs of the Souih, and the Northern carpetbaggers are denounced in stronger terms than you or any Sputherper eyey denounced thorn. Tnere is one foolish idea promi nent here, generated by the Radical Re publicans, and believ'ed by their party almost unanimously, and also by some Democrats, and that is that if Hancock is elected President the Southern war debt will be paid. Can’t you and some other of our prominent Southern men set that question at rest fully in speeches, anff let it be for issue in the North? It would do us a great amount of good. If you could induce General Hampton to explain and declare the voice of the South in this matter—or Senator Bayard •it would help us wonderfully, for all the North admire these gentlemen and look on them as the mouthpiece of the South. Truly and respectfully yours, A. J. L Cq^'IvUnp on the Conduct ov tiie Campaign.—A New York letter says: “Senator G'oukling is credited with having remarked Tuesday that the Republican National Committee is mak ing a great mistake in scattering its fire in other States, instead of concentrating upon New York. He thinks the Qther States may ?afejy be left to take care of themselves, but that there is imminent peril in losing New Y'ork. The issues, he says, pertain to principles,‘and not to candidates. He is also of opinion that the National and State Committees ought to make direct appeals to the mer cantile and industrial classes with a view of convincing them that Democratic suc cess means Southern ascendency, and that Southern ascendency means the de pletion of the Federal Treasury, a de rangement of the national finances, the imperiling of the public credit, and an inevitable increase of taxation. If the city general committee will pall a mass meeting o? the merchants and working men in New 'York city any time within the next thirty days, he will gladly ad dress it on these topics. ” Mistakes will happen. A servant in a hotel was directed to carry a glass of medicine to a sick man and a cocktail to tbe man in the next room. He put bo,th glasses on one tr^y, apd visiting the eick man first, the latter somehow took the cocktail for his medicine, and then the waiter took the medicine, which tasted like the very mischief to the other man, who took a big swallow of it, and then ;ot up and blasphemed frightfully and Licked the waiter down four flights of stairs. The Secretary of the Hancock Club of Flatbush, L. L, having written General Hancock a letter promising him one thousand majority in Flatbush, the Gen eral responded: “In this campaign the ; people are the leaders. They know what hey want, and through a fair and free vote they are evidently determined to have it. That the result will be a purer and better administration of public affairs, X have not the least doubt. ” White, soft and velvety hands follow the use of Cutlcura Medicinal Soap. A Sinister Document. Atlanta Constitution. As a matter of course, we have been under the impression that the leadtrs of the Norwood movement would take due advantage of their expertnes9 in the arts and artifices of demagogery, but we have never one moment believed that their opposition to Governor Colauitt would lead them to make an attack; upon the Democratic party. We have before us a document issued under the auspices of the Norwood campaigners which, as an appeal to the passions of the ignorant, and as a slander against Governor Col quitt, is without a parallel in the political literature of Georgia. This circular is embellished with the cut of a negro con vict, loaded down with a ball and chain, and its title i3 “Convict Catechism We could wish that a copy of this document might fall into the hands of every thoughtful voter in the State: we could wish that every citizen interest* d in maintaining good order and in pre serving and perpetuating kindly feelings between the races might have an oppor tunity of reflecting over the effect of this firebrand to be cast by reckless dema gogues among a class whose prejudices are easily aroused, and whose passions are readily inflamed. A more sinister document was never conceived by dema gogues, and its whole tenor is such that even the casual reader must be convinced that wc have those among us who would not hesitate to make incendiary appeais to a class of our population if thereby they could win votes. We take it for granted that Mr. Nor wood knows nothing of this document; nevertheless, it is based upon his candi dacy; it is intended to secure for him the support of the colored people, and he Cannot escape a certain degree of respon sibility for the circulation of such a docu ment. The danger of the circular L not in the direction intended by Mr. Norwood’s campaigners. The danger is not that the colored people will be in duced to hold Governor Colquitt respon sible for the existence or the abuses c f the convict system; for while the negroes may be comparatively, ignorant there are none so ignorant as not to know that the system was in operation before Gover nor Colquitt came into office, and that under his administration the miseries and abuses of the chain gang have been greatly mitigated. In other words, Gov ernor Colquitt has ipado the best of a bad law, and greatly improved its effect. These are facts that the sinister misrepre sentations of the circular will not suc ceed in rubbing out. This new style of campaign document, however, goes much further than an at tack upon Governor Colquitt. In en deavoring to fix upon him the responsi bility of the convict system, it over shoots the mark and makes a violently bitter attack upon the Democratic party in the State, for while the system origi nated with the Republicans, the action of the last General Assembly has fixed the responsibility upon the Democratic party. We have the best reasons for be lieving that Governor Colquitt was in sympathy with the reforms which the lamented Alston was anxious to see made in the convict system of Georgia. The most intimate personal relation ex isted between Governor Colquitt and Colonei Alston, aud it is hardly necessary to state that the crusade of the latter was not undertaken witiiout due and deliber ate consultation. It is only necessary to point to the record of Governor Colquitt since he has been in office to demonstrate the fact that he has been in favor of every suggestion and every movement looking to the amelioration and improve ment of the colored people. fact stands out prominently, and we are not afraid that colored men will be deceived by the circular. TV hat we object to—what we protest against—is that there can be found men calling themselves Democrats who are willing to befoul their own nests for the purpose of defeating the will of a ma jority of Georgia Democrats. The circu lar is an insidious attack upon the Demo cratic party. When Colonel Alston’s re port was brought to the attention of the Legislature, the Constitution urged that body to take some definite action in the way of reforming the system, warning the members at the same time that the question was a very large one, involving vast moral interests, and necessitating careful and deliberate action. The Legislature took no action, and the Democratic party of Georgia, as It exists to day, became responsiMe for the sys tem YVhen, therefore, Mr. Norwood’s campaigners issue fifty thousand docu ments of the character of the one now before us, they simply attack the party to which they profess to belong, and make possible, in the near future, the prosecution of incendiary campaigns, tbe effect of which no thoughtful man can contemplate with composure. They are welcome—doubly welcome to all the political capital they can make by such sinister publications. Apart from considerations of this sort, the question arises—and it is one to which we beg to call the attention of in telligent colored men—is Mr. Norwood the proper person to engineer a reform in the convict system of the State ? His record shows that his recent proclamation to that effect is a mere piece of political claptrap for the purpose of catching votes. While Governor Colquitt, in the administration of the affairs of the State, has been using all his influence in behalf of the improvement of the colored peo pie—while the Constitution, in connec tion with tho most thoughtful citizens, has iiecn endeavoring in season and out of season to build up a public sentiment that will secure to the humblest colored man justice under the law, protection in his life, liberty aDd property, and el im partial division of all the advantages of citizenship, what has Mr. Norwood been doing ? His record is consistent in this, that he has persistently belittled all the efforts made by the colored people for their self-improvement; he has used all his powers of invective a^d suicasm to ridicule the 73^e, and his final verdict is: Cut the negro down; “why cumbereth he the ground ?” Previous to his present candidacy, he has lost no effort to level his keen sarcasm at the colored man. Wherever he has had an opportunity to deliver one of his cold blooded liar- angues, he has almost invariably given epigrammatic expression of his con tempt for the race and all its possibili ties. Even during the proceedings of the recent convention, he took occasion to display his animus. What, then, ar^ we to say of the efforts of his campaigners to attack the Democratic party for the purpose of securing the votes of the colored people ? What guarantee have the colored people that his sudden con version will be productive of results ’ Taking the position, the attitude, the animus of the two mep—comparing their records with reference to the negro question—i§ it lively that S|r. Norwood will by as active in behalf of the negro 3s Governor Colquitt? These are ques tions that intelligent colored men must decide for themselves. But no emergency of prejudice or personal feeling can ex cuse or explain the sinister purposes of the Norwood circular which is to be circulated among the colord people of Georgia. £iw Sills.

Chicago now exacts $250 for every circus performance given in that city, $50 a day for each side show and $25 for the concert in the tent after the reg ular entertainment. Thus a circus open afternoon and evening, with say five side shows, must pay $673 daily into the city treasury. Two men rode up on harnessed horses to a circus ticket wagon at Leadville, hitched the beasts to it, and dashed off with the vehicle, in which were the treasurer and $1,300. The showmen gave quick chase, and regained the treasure, but the robbers escaped. Mr. Hayes this year evidently cares nothing for agricultural fairs, while agricultural fairs evidently care nothing for him. There is a strong contrast in this respect between the first summer and the last summer of the fraudulent administration. PINAFORE!
