What a terrible quantity of brag ia l oing
used by tbe Tories in Georgia. They'd tell
you more consummate untruths in a single
column than one could digest in a month.

If Ben. Hill can’t give the people a

man in Georgia qualified for the position.
The PoelMaeterstlGrlffiU'tta.,

Some of you had better mind your ‘‘P's’)
and “Q’s. We have an eye on you, and
the first thing you know, one of “ those

Col. Mullock’* Addresi.
The address ot Col. R. B. Bullock, the
Constitutional Candidate for Governor wil
be found in this issue of our paper. Read
it citizens of Georgia, and see how teisely
written each paragraph is, how manly its
sentiments, and how clearly defined is his
position. There is uo verbiage, no multi
plication of words, no attempt to evade the
truth by the subterfuges so often resorted to.
We say again, read and ponder it—read it
every day until you will know it by heart:
“ Bully Bottom.”

learned, Shakespeare's “Bottom” was again
personified, and oh, my! how some folks
got chawed up!
“K. K- K.”
These Kabalistic Karacters have arrived
in town at last. A wonderful combination
of hieroglyphics are upon the posters. A
friend suggests that, without a reference to
the Sanscrit or Chaldee, he has come to
the conclusion that these letters only mean
Kill Kenny Rats, and that if th'ey are
severely left alone, like the famous Kat
story of our childhood, there will soon be
nothing lelt but talcs.
“White man's Paper.”
Somewhere away down in lower Georgia,
a Tory is publishing a paper under the above
head. If he is a white man, then we think
he needs no such evidence to prove it, nor
the exhibition of such bad taste in selecting
a name. If he is a painted sepulchre, then
the people ought to know it.
Good Sense-
Vote for .the Constitution and for Bullock,
read your bibles and say your prayers regu
larly, and above all things don’t forget to
take a reliable Republican paper—ours of
course—pay for it, and tlieu your consciences
will be clear, your sleep sweet, your diges
ton good, and your State saved from ruin.
Advertise.
With a daily increasing circulation, ad
vertisers may rest assured that the National
Republican is the best medium for adver
tising that is issued in this city. And as the
Republicans who trade in Augusta have a
good deal ot money to spend, it will proba
bly be only necessary to say “a word to tbe
wise,” etc.
PliWforra.
Has tbe Georgia Obstructionist Party a
platform? Where is it? We should like to
see it? They remind us of an old tellow in
ante helium days—ask kirn what he was
was advocating—what principle of liberty
had been violated by the general Govern
ment ? His parrot cry was, “ ’Sistance, ’sis
tance 1”
Ei«Korcrnor Brown at Kingiton.
Passionate demonstrations, such as that
exhibited at Kingston, on the 20th instant,
in relation to this gentleman, are only the
outcroppings of the mean, proscriptive
spirit which animates the body of the Tory
party of Georgia. Night-owls are dirty
fowls, every one knows.
Circulation of this Paper.
The circulation of the National Repub
lican has increased upward of 1,000 copies
since the campaign commenced. It goes
everywhere, and all who want to get their
money’s worth had better take heed and send
in their advertisements. We take Republi
can greenbacks for all dues—never refused
them.

Correspondence.
Wo are permitted to extract the following
from a private letter received from Talbot
ton, March 23:
“As to Col. Bullock, whose words and
acts I deemed it my duty to scrutiuize during
the three months’ session of the Convention,
under very peculiar circumstances, allow
me to say that 1 heard from him no unkind
or superfluous words There was the same
mauly bearing, the same rare equanimity of
mind I so much admire, and of which I
shall love to speak.”
Soluble Pacific Guano.
We neglected, on yesterday, to call atten
tion to the advertisement of Messrs. J. O.
Mathewson & Cos., Selling Agents, Augusta,
Ga., of the above valuable Guano. From
numerous letters we have seen, and from
the endorsement of Soluble Manures of such
men as Dickson, of Hancock county, whose
experience with such manures is extensive,
we should say that the public would do well
to secure their supplies, and we guarantee,
from the well known responsibility of the
Agents here, that a genuine article will be
obtained. There can be no doubt of the
value of Soluble over Insoluble Guanos or
manures of any kind ; for in the one case
the return of 100 per cent, is made in
the year; and in the other, by instalments
of a very small per cent, per year for ten or
twenty years.
SrAnTA, January 16th, ISOS.
Nears. J. O. Matheivson <fc Cos.:
Gent# —ln my experiment plat for cotton
during the last season, I put at tbo rate of 150
lbs. por acre of your Pacific Guano, which cost
$5.00. It producod 821 lbs. of seed cotton more
than the natural soil, being 1,472 lbs.—natural
soil 651. The cloftr profit, at 11 cents per pound,
was $24.11 per acre, or 402 per cent, on the
money invested. A compound of Pacific with
Peruvian Guano gave 433 per cent., being ahead
of any of the combinations used in my plat.
Respectfully, etc.,

The “Philistines up the street” in n notice
yesterday, speaks of “V. M. Bars**,’ Esq.,
(supposed whit*”) oa a speaker. Now ia'nt
that nice to come from such a source ? Mr.
Barnes was once thoodilor of the Chronicle
iff Sentinel, and in thoso days there was
some decency and good sense In its columns,
as every one knows who read the pajicr: as
Mrs. Partington would say—“comparisons
are odorous,” but tho stench all comes from
the “native Georgians 4 ' who claim to be so
pure.
“Native Georgians.”
Some gcutleman sent a “few words” to
the Philistines up the street for publication,
where it was declined for the reason that
they could not support the claims “of either
ot the Radical candidates,” etc.-even if
one of them was "a native Georgian.” Now;
it is very well known that these Philistines
bad upon all their bills and business cards,
the words:
“ THE EDITORS ARE NATIVE UIORGIAXS,”
(Query—What are the Local and Associate
Editors?) ns a claptrap to catch gome peo
ple; and surely, if they mean what they say
and print it —why not publish their own
emanations and stick to their own colors,
especially as they have such an enormous
(?) circulation.
Kii-Ii iiix Klan.
The name of this organization is taken
from the “click” in cocking a gun or pistol.
It means blood. It means that rebel des
peradoes are organizing against thu govern
ment. It means that honest unsuspecting
people are to be deceived into allowing their
names to be enrolled against the govern
ment, nnder the name of a white man’s party'.
We are expecting that some of this murder
grace the gallows. They

The Macon Clique.
Macon, Oa, March 17.—The Democratic
Central Executive Committee adjourned
this morning.
The following regtiUitkm# comprise the
material part of actiou:
Resolved, That for reasons founded alike
on tho illegitimacy of its origin, and it*
odious character, we urge upon onr friends
throughout the State, sternly to oppose, fey
all lawful means, 911 the Hustihgs and at
the Polls, a ratification of the in6truuugit
recently promulgated at Atlanta as a Coni
stitutiou lor Georgia. But,
Whereas, The Atlanta Constitution may
be imposed upon us, notwithstanding “our
opposition thereto, and, in that Cvent, ?t will
be of vital importance to all the people of
Georgia to have good and sound men to ad
minister the State Government under it; and
Whereas, The Hon. Augustus Reese has
declined the candidacy for Governor of
Georgia, tendered him by th)3 Committee,
and it is deemed impracticable, from want of
time, to hold a nominating Convention, in
which all parts of the State shall be fully:
and fairly represented ; and
Whereas, Owing to disfranchisements
and other causes, numerous and serious
embarrassments surround the question yf
a strict party nomination for Governor at
the present time, for theso reasons.
Resolved, That the State Central Com
mittee of the Democratic* party deem it
unadvisablfl to make any nomination for
Governor at the approaching election, and
advise and urge the Democrats and Con
servatives of the State to oast their votes as
a unit for the independent candidate now
in the field, the [Hon, David Irwin.
We are satisfied that he holds no views
inimical to the honor and welfare of Georgia.
We confide in his ability, integrity, and
devotiou to his State, and iu these have a
guarantee, that if elected, ho will admiuister
the Government solely in the interests of the
white people.
Resolved, That our friends throughout the
State are urged to bring into the field, in
every County and Senatorial District, good
and true men for the legislature, in every
candidates who are registered
we are advised that none others
will btr&Hcwed to take their seats.

Washington, dS&, March 27th,—Mr.
Stevens’ universal suffngkeameudmentcovers
all the States, but the peSdty for Infringe
ment applies only to defeat is
regarded as certain, as it wouluWiye Ala
bama to the Democrats ; but the postage of
the bill, as reported, which
Constitution and inaugurates State officiafca
recently voted for, is apprehended. Violent
cross purposes exist, however, and this after
noon’s proceedings aro speculated upon at
every corner.
Impeachment speculations are rife, but
the actors in the play are reticent, Nothing
reliably indicative or suggestive has trans
pired.
Washington, March 27. —There was a
prolonged Cabinet meeting to day—all

Black moved to take up the preliminary
injunction in the Georgia case, but the

A further hearing of the case this term is
regarded as improbable.

The Conference Committee on the tax bill
