Individuals wbo apologise for Wbiteley,
arc ready to aeocpl a post office or a route
agenoy for their fealty to his infamous causo:
Newspapers that plaster him over with deli*
eate praise and begging recognition, simply
bid for radical patronage, and their loyalty
to Democracy depends entirely npon tbe
prioe offered for treason.
As wo are changing quarters this week,
and full of business besides, we appropriate
the following nobby and deserved notice of
tbe Buinbridge Mitreiluse, (don’t know bow
to spell it, hot Den knows lrow to sboot it,)
from Harris’ column:
"The Buinbridge Democrat comes to ns
enlarged and improved. Tbe Democrat de
serves the support of every white man in the
Second District. Its editor, .Mr. B. E. Kus-
scll, wields a fearless and vigorous pen, and
whenever he laokles a Radical be makes the
fur 8y. We most cordially commend tbe
Democrat.”
R.
L. Mott, of Columbus, the bcary infi
j ' del, blasphemer and leprous scalawag, is an
< independent Radical candidate for Codgress,
. ia tbe4lh District. The LaGrange Reporter
truthfully asys :
He is really running in the interests'of tbe
Radical party, aud is afraid 10 acknowledge
it. No matter what his social or aommeroial
standing may be; no matter what relations
he may sustain to others; no matter whalbia
past record is; he has leR the white men and
gone to the negroes for support; he has
turned traitor to his race when the question
of raoe Is the only one that dirides parties in
the South; and he deserves all the obloqny
tad all the contumely that can be heaped
, upon him. The fact that he has heretofore
1 j • • men considered a gentleman, only makes his
|i* ziithe greater, and makes him deserve the
jdeeper disgrace.

V31IID STATES.
New Orlsams, September 18.—At six
o'clock yesterday evening, in accordance
with arraugemeuts previously made. Geo. J
R. Brooke, accompanied by Lieutenants
Wallace ami Roe, went to tbs Executive Of
fice at the St. Louis Hotel.
Gov. MoEnery staled to General Brooke,
that lie gave him possession of the State
c ipitol and all other State buildings within
the limits of the oity.
Gen. Brooke merely bowed in acceptance,
sad the Governor read to him the following
address:
Gen. - Brooie—As the lawful and
Governor of this State, I surrender to you”
os the representative of tbe Government of
the United States, the oepitol and the remain
der of the property in this city belonging to
tbe State. This surrender is in response to
a formal demand of Gen. Emery forsnch sur
render, or to accept aa an alternative tho
levying of war upon our government by the
military forces of the United State under his
command.
I have already said to Goa. Emory, we
have neither tbe power nor the inclination
to resist the Government of the United Stales.
Sir, I transfer to yonr gna-diansbip the pro*
tcclioo of the rights and liberties of the peo
ple of this State, and I trust and believe that
you will give preteotion io all classes of our
citizens.
Ruled and ruined by a oorrupt usurpation
presided over by Mr. Kellogg, onr people
coold bear the wrongs, tyranny and insults
of that usurpation no longer, and they arose
in their might—swept it from existence and
installed in antbority the rightful govern*
meat, of wli.ch l am the head.
All lovers of liberty throughout the Union
must admit the patriotism that aroused onr
people to act as one man, and throw off the
yoke of this odious usurpation. I know as
soldiers you have but to obey the orders of
the Government of me United States, hut
feel that you w ill temper your military con
trol of affairs with moderation, and in all.
thid|s exhibit that integrity of purpose char
acteristic of officers of the army. 1 now
turo over Io yon, sir, the Capitol and other
properly rf the State under my command.

At the conclusion of this address, Gen
Brooke was seated in the office and required
from Lieutenant Governor Penn a statement
of all the records, etc , which were ia the
building when he took possession. Governor

Letter from illUcbt ll.
BeptlOth, 1871.
A BOOT CA3IILLA, Ga
Col Carey W. Styles.H
Dear Sib :—Thinking you and the numer
ous readers of your valuable paper might be
interested in matters in, and about Camilla,
I respectfully use of you a space in your col
umns that I may give you and them a few
dots. We arc fully alive to* the great work
of electing that good and solid man, tha Tlon.
Vm. E. Smith, to the uext Congress of the
United States, and we mean to do it,—that ia
a settled fact, as Dick Wbiteley is in the lust
agonies of death, and his party is too sick to
administer to him any relief and but little
oomfort. Poor fellow, he is dying hard but
sure, nnd there is no antidote that is power
ful enough to counteract such deadly portion
as the dose which is destroying him so rap
idly, to-wit:
"SOCIAL EQUALITY.”
And really there is but little hope for those
who have contracted the dise&ae from him,—
and ol which there are several in and about
Camilla, so let them die also. The Rads have
not yet nominated their candidate for the
Legislature in Mitchell county, but it. is
thought tljat J. M. Bum will be the nomi*
nee, but of this your correspondent is doubts
ful as they have been feeling some of our
soundest Democrats to see if i hey would not
suffer themselves to be made tools of by the
social equalitist; but I am satisfied that the
time is past, when good men will let the Bads
use them as mere tools to defeat the Demo
cratic candidates. We are determined to
work, and work mightily for the cause -of
right over might and tyranny, and that we
will be successful no one will.stop to doubt.
The rads say they have a large majority, and
that they intend to put it. up nicely for
Whitely ; and so they will “in a horn” yon
know.
There are many good men throughout t he
2d District who have heretofore voted for
Wbiteley for personal considerations, but
who are now as much determined to defeat
him as we who have always opposed him,
indeed all while men who understand the so-
called “Civil Bights Bill,” aud who are not
lost to all high and ennobling qualities, are
down on * Slippery Dick.*’
We will bury him so deep in Xovembor
that he ean never be politically resurrected.
Hon. Wm. E, Smith is no doubt the-very
best man Vhom the^ Democrats could have
nominated, as he perhaps, had fewer person
al enomies than .any public man; end his
political record is one of the brightest tha 1
any man can produce:. The only iking .nec
essary for his triumphant success is for us
to work diligently and perseveringly for him
and wdth him. If this Redone we will achieve
the grandest and most glorious victory which
has ever been achieved in this District. We
do not propose using any unfair and dishon
orable measures as the Bads do to
plish our design, but all the weapon we need,
and all we desire to fight with is that of truth,
for,
“IFitlr emitted to earth will rite again.'*
And the truth of just and Republican gov
ernment hs* been crushed to earth, nod
ground into the earth for these fourteen
years, and the time, is at hand when it is
bound to rise iu its might aud shake off tte
dust and shackles and shine forth more beau
tiful and bright because of it*long confine
ment in Radical chains.
The cotton crop ofj Mitchell is nearly a
failure. Business in Camilla is looking up
some. The health of our place and aurro in-
ding country is improving since the recent
rains.
My best wishes for your success in
your noble enterprise. “The Aew»” is the
