Hon. W. E. Smith.
On our first |>age to-iUy wc pre
sent the remarks of lion. Win. E.
Smith, made in the House of Repre
sentatives for the improvement of
Flint river.
The speech is sound, practical and
convincing- Some statistics are fur
nished therewith, which will he read
with interest by onr subscribers. The
importance and wealth of onr section
is not fully realized by onr own peo
ple: and it is sometimes refreshing
to recount onr advantages, and let
ourselves, as well as the world, know
that wc arc still in the land of tin*
living, an active, progressive people.
I'apt. Smith, during each session of
Congress, since he was first elected,
lias labored zealously for appropria
tions for Flint river, and in spite of
the heavy and persistent opposition
of Northern Republicans to Southern
appropriations, has succeeded in pro
curing a sufficient sum to insure nit
early completion of the work. The
most difficult obstacles to navigation
between Bainbridgc and Albany will
1m* removed l>v tliis last appropria
tion, and then the work will move on
rapidly.
Our Representative has been em
phatically a working one. He lias
established a record of earnestness iu
behalf of his constituents, and politi
cal purity; and passes through three
terms of ofiice without a Idol or stain
upon his escutcheon. Whether re
nominated or not on thc23lh of this
month, to him it can be of little con
cern. He removed the yoke of radi
calism from the necks of his people,
when others tenred to attempt the
task; harmonized discordant ele
ments, created peace and good will
between the two races in this District;
served in Congress impartially, and
stands to-day where no man dare
point the finger of disapproval at any
one feature of liis career.

BERRIEN COUNTYJ
HER ACTION YESTERDAY —ONE
ANI> ONE !
Ai-ataih, Ga., July 7tli—Berrien
county elects W. S. Walker and W
H. Lvitinger delegates to the Guber
natorial Convention. They arc un
instructed, but Lastingcr is for Col
quilt and Walker against him.
Tlios. Faulk and II. II. Knight go
to the Congressional Convention, also
un instructed.
Let’s See :
Dougherty, Mitchell, Raker, Lee
and Miller and part of Calhoun al
ready for Colquitt. Worth, Colquitt
Early, Clay, Randolph, and probably
Thomas, Decatur, Brooks, Terrell
and Quitman will speak in a few
days lor Colquitt, and when these
are added to the column, it giyes
Colquitt a clean sweep of Southwest
Georgia.
And here comes Berrien,—one for
Colquitt.
The Atlanta Poet, the rabbid ma
ligner of Gov. Colquitt, dares insin
qate that the Conventions which have
selected Colquitt delegates have been
alyly manipulated. All of them, wc
believe, elected by ballot, and the
people spoke positively. Tbe Post
seems to be getting ready to bolt Col
quilt's nomination. It may ns well
put out its Independent banner at
once, for Colquitt will be nominated
on the 4lh of August.
The people of Dougherty are grat
ified to tec the hearty endorsement
given Attorney .General Ely iu all
parls of the Stale. Major “Jlob” has
made a good, able and i-llh-lrut off)
cor, and will go in again.
How to Harmonize tlic Party.?
Make the choice ol its members the
nominee of the party ?
There's the whole secret of har
monizing. Several weeks ago we
were told by leading men and news
papers that a kicking out of Gov.
Colquitt would he necessary to har
monize the Democracy of Georgia,
and that we should bury personal
preferences and take a man who the
people wanted. This cry for this sort
of harmony came from men opposed
to Governor Colquitt. The absurdi
ty of the proposition is now plainly
evident. County after county - is
rolling up Colquitt delegates, and
the attendance of the people, nml in
terest manifested by them iu the
*® • meetings, is something unprecedent
ed in the political history of Georgia.
The people want him re-elected, and
they are harmonizing on him as rap
idly as the days pass.
All the other candidates have local
support. Colquitt's is State-wide.—
He will be nominated, and his ma
jority on election day will far exceed
the 80,000 he received four years ago.
Let ’er roll.
The Tenth Senatorial District.
Some misunderstanding seems to
exist in regard to the status of affairs
in this, the Tenth Senatorial District,
and our readers should refresh their
memories in regard to the matter.
The counties composing the Dis
trict—Dougherty, Lee and Wortli
have been accustomed to rotating on
the Senator. Since the District was
taken from the hands of the Republi
cans, the following gentlemen have
represented us: Col. Carey W.
Styles, of Dougherty, finished the un
expired term of Mr. F. O. Welch,
(Republican,) resigned. Col. W- A.
Harris, of Worth, succeeded Col.
Styles, serving four years. Then of
right it would seem that Lee county
was entitled to the nomination, but
there was no regular Democrat nom
inated. lion. Charles Wessolowsky,
Republican, of Dougherty county,
made the race, without Democratic
opposition, and succeeded Col. liar-
ris in the Senate. Two years ago the
counties met in convention at Al-
bany, through delegates. Delegates
from Lee presented the name of Dr.
J. P. Stevens, of that county, having
been, we believe, instructed to vote
for him as the choice of I-cc. Mr. J.
J. Ilali, a delegate tl.cn from Worth,
placed in nomination Hon, I. I'. Ti-
son, of Lee; Dougherty seconded
the nomination, ami lie was declared
the choice of the convention.
The whole matter is terribly con
glomerated, and it is now difficult to
tell which county is entitled to the
honor. A Dougherty county candi
date claims that this county is entitled
to it. Several candidates in Wortli
claim that site is, from the fact that
Dougherty overlooked her rights in
allowing Mr. Wessolowsky to run in
without opposition. It is difficult to
solve the problem. As for our own
part, wc care nothing for sectional
ism or formalities. We desire that
tlic delegates meet in convention and
unite upon the safest and best man,
ami one who will well anil truly rep
resent tlic views of our people. This
wo believe they will <lo, and no mat
ter who that man is lie shall have our
best and most earnest support.

Democracy Ahead.
Gov. Colqhitt In Itainhrldge.
Bainbriihik, Ga., July 5,1880.
Editors Albany News :
Responsive to an invitation of our
citizens Governor Colquitt arrived
Imre .Saturday. Ho was met at the
depot by several citizens and taken to
the Sharon House.
At half past cloven the silver cor
net bund took position in the court
house square, and with delightful
strains of music, called together the
large number of citizens assembled
to hoar his Excellency. The court
house was tilled to its utmost capaci
ty by both Mark nml while. Hon.
W. <>. Fleming, iu a brief, pertinent
speech, introduced him. As lie arose
the multitude greeted liitn witli round
after round of applause.
Throughout his entire address lie
was enthusiastically cheered. His
vindication of himself from tho re
cent foul aspersions upon himself,
Gordon ami Brown, was entirely sat
isfactory to his hearers. It wns truly
astonishing to seo the number of
Brown and Colquitt men present.
Tint latter is stronger now iu this
oiinty than he lias ever been. Tlic
causeless attacks upon him have
strengthened instead of weakened
him, ns his enemies hoped. I am
confident, if there is a fair expression
of opinion had on the 17th of this
month, a Colquitt delegation will go
from this county.
The colored population arc solid
for him and no mistake.
Have had plenty of rain ami crops
arc doing finely. No caterpillars
have put in an appearance as yet.

Editors Albany News:
The citizens of this counly gather
ed at tlic court-house to-day to hear
Gov. A. II. Colquitt’s address. Tlic
house was crowded, notwithstnndiii;
there were several picnics in the
country.
The Governor made no attempt tit
display, but entered into a calm
quiet examination of tlic charges pre-
fered against him, and only occasion
ally would his feelings gain the as
cendancy and thou wild bursts of el
oqiieucc would startle his audience
ami awake plaudits troni many who
had been violently opposed to him
Speaking of Joseph E. Brown, lie
asked tlic irrepressible editor of the
Democrat why the Democracy at
Cincinnati did not say in their plat
form how long a man must act with
the party before he was one of them
An anonymous pamphlet, attacking
his administration and his personal
character, was placed in his hands
The pamphlet stated that lie (Col
quitt) had been asked at Athens
while speaking “if lie would run in
dependent, and that he refused to an
swer.” lie denounced the assertion
as false, and defied his enemies to
point to any act of his in the past that
would warrant a suspicion that such
was liis intention; said that lie “scorn
cd to answer a question that was
based on an assumption of liis dis
loyalty to the Democratic party.”
The impression made was good
and the contest between him and
Hardeman will be close in this coun
ty, which instructed for Hardeman
four years ago. A. L. T.
The Hancock boom is the grandest
political movement ever known in
the history of this country. The Re
publicans are breaking ranks in every
State: there is no bloody shirt to
wave. The .Veterans’ Associations
and tlic oilier soldier-political socie
ties are rapidly disorganizing, and
when the “boys who wore the blue”
and the “boys who wore the grny”
coine together there is very
little left. The following is & sample
of the effect General Hancock’s nom
ination is having:
Pitts bubo, July 4.—General A. D.
Pearson, who has long been recog
nized as one of tlic Republican lead
ers in this neighborhood, and who
wns a warm supporter of Grant at
tlic Chicago convention, has declared
himself in favor of Hancock for Pres
ident. To the interrogatory to-day,
“Are you for Hancock, General ?”
He responded, “Undoubtedly, I am.
I trill in a day or two send a letter to
U. S. Grant, chairman of the national
committee of the Veterans’ Union
(Boys in Blue) withdrawing from
that organization I am a member
from this Stale, anil have been for
seven years. I shall set forth in that
letter that I expect to support Hnn-
cock, and as the Veterans’ Union is a
Republican organization, I cannot
consistently hold the position longer
of representative from Pennsylva
nia.”
General Pearson went into tlic wai
ns a captain in tlic one hundred and
fifty-fifth regiment, nnd for bravery
nml ability wns promoted to tic colo
nel, a brigadier-general and finally a
major-general. He served in War
ren’s Fiftli corps, participated in ten
battles and was ns brave a soldier ns
Alleglmiicy county sent into the field
of battle.
A great meeting of Democrats was
held to-night at Grccnsburg, West
moreland comity, to latity the nomi
nations. A sensation wns created by
tlic appearance of Gencrhl Pearson,
who made it rousing speech in favor
of Hancock. He felt confident that
Hancock would he elected, nnd
would also carry Pennsylvania. Hu
was satisfied that all the old soldiers
of tlic Keystone state would vole for
a man who was both a soldier and a
statesman, and who had never dirtied
liis hands wxlli any pavement job or
credit mobilicr scandal.

Thomas county meets on Saturday
to select delegates to the Gubernato
rial and Congressional Conventions.
Our friend Captain Hansel), of tlic
Thomasville Enterprise; is lighting
Colquitt with all Ids might, but nl
most concedes to him the county, in
the following article:
Friday morning lust some gentle
men here were notified that Gov.
Colquitt would be here that night
and desired to mnkc a speech to our
people. The fact that he would speak
at the City Hall at p. in., wns
soon made public. Committees from
tlic City Council and from tiie citi
zuns were appointed to meet him at
the depot and all necessary arrange
incuts made for his reception. The
Hall was comfortably filled, some
two hundred persons, including
many ladies, being present. Hon.
Win. M. Hammond, in a short speech
introduced the speaker who for
something like an hour and a half
addressed the crowd. His speech
was in substance the same as lie made
in Atlnnta, Albany, and other places,
and which lias been published two
or tlircc times. Ilis manner is calcu
lated to win him friends wherever he
goes nnd he can entertain his au
dicnccs very well, indeed. We can
not sny that he gained any new
friends here by the address, blit we
have no doubt he strengthened the
fnith of those who were already of
his way of tliiukiiig. He was fre
quently npplaudcd during the speech
anil tlic mere mention of Joe Brown’s
name called for loud applause. The
chances arc pretty good forColq uitt'i
carrying this county.
Hon. Daniel Dougherty, the great
Philadelphia orator, who placed in
nomination General Ilnncock, in such
nu eloquent way, is a late convert to
Democratic faith, having nt one time
been nil active Republican. Judge
Hoadlcy, of Ohio, tlic temporary
chairman of Ilic Democratic conren
lion, is a lain convert to Democratic
faith. These two gentlemen arc
leading Northern Democrats, and
did as much towards controlling that
convention ns any two men in it.—
Hon. Jos.E. Brown lias not voted any
other than a Democratic ticket in
twelve years, anil still he is nerused
of being a Republican. Where’s the
consistency ?

follows: In these counties—as in
many others—each county precinct
elects ten delegates, nnd these dele

Colquitt delegates to the state con
