Thotfcamls of loyal hearts were thrilled with gladness l»y the intelligence which Hashed along the electric wires, on Thurs day night, that the gn at Republican party of the I'uion, in Convention at Chicago, had unanunoudy selortcd General Grant as our standard l>carcr in the coining Presidential campaign. This unanimous nomination affords the highest evidence that the People are about to take matters into their own hands and give anew direction to public affairs. It assures us of the bright prospect ahead, when the country will be relieved from the misrule of the demagogues and tricksters who have contributed so much to produce the present crisis in our affairs. It inspires us with uisc and higher hopes of success, and with increased energy to strike <in | strike ever for victory—to move forward, with renewed zeal, to the accomplishment of the great and good work of hurling from power and place the men who have betrayed their country and defrauded the people, the conspirators who have shown themselves capable of sacrificing the gov ernment and our glorious institutions for place and pelf. Our banner bears the honored names of Or. ant and Coi.fax. Let true Republicans go to work, determined to do their duty, their whole duty, and nothing but their duty to the country. We feel confident that a large majority of the people of Georgia prefer to see Grant elected to any other man; and all that is necessary to secure his triumph is to induce them to cast their votes for the man they prefer. Let us then resolve that this shall be done, and let every man go to work to do it, and ‘victory is certain to perch on our noble banner. It is the banner of Constitution and Union—the banner of the honest hearted American patriots, who are re solved to defeat the spoilsmen who arc “held together by the cohesive properties of the public plunder." This is our banner -the banner of the People. On the broad platform of Republicanism our Presidential nominee stands, promising equal rights to all, promising perpetuity and increasing lustre to our land. * Get a Farm and Go to Work. All over the State property holders have en deavored to compel their employees to vote a they dictated, and it is quite probable tliut similar attempts will be made in the future. Numbers of men have been dis. charged for voting, and others are living in daily fear of being discharged. Col ored people should know that so long as they are dependent upon those who do not sympathize with them, so long will they be “knocked about from pillar to post." If they would become independent, they must become their own employers. We see that quite a number have opened little “stores." and eke out a precarious living in that way, but they seldom do well. They should get farms of their own, and go to cultivating the soil. Land does not cost much, now, and everything that a man raises can be sold. Get a farm, go to work upon it, work with a will, and success is certain. Those who now order you to vote a- they say, will soon conic and rrquent you to support their candidate. The employee is dependent upon his employer; the merchant is dependent upon the public; the industrious farmer is dependent, only, upon God. Get a farm and go to work. “Colored Conservative Cutis." This is the newest wrinkle. The new convert to Democratic doctrine, up street next to the Gas office, is concerned about the welfare of the colored “man and brother.” He aaitli: “Means ought now to I e taken to give him correct inlormation and to teach him where his true interest lays. In South Caro lina and other Southern States colored Conservative Clubs have been formed, and :nnnibcrs of the negroes are joining. With a little pains and trouble similar ones may be got up here, and, before another election, Conservatives will be able to control the aiegro vote.” Yes, m'in that’s the •‘chisel.” Colored Conservative Clubs. For the fun of the thing, we would like to sec the aforesaid editor going to a Conservative Club ofcol- NT cd voters, and watch him dodging around lest some “cussed” Radical might see him and hear him unfold his “pains and trouble, to show them w here the interests «>f the Conservative “niggers” lay. Twould lie right amusing. It is currently reported, we mav add. that means have been employed, and cor rect information ha* been gi v , „ them, and the colored men have shown that, although considered beasts of burden by the “so called,” they are competent to look after their interest in that they voted to retain their freedom, and put those on guard who had, in times of trial prored to be their “best friends.” * What’h tiik .Matt Kit -In tln-Hicoml (.‘ungrcwuonal District in this State, which has it dear registered majority of colored over while voters, the Democrats have elected Nelson Tift to Congress By some two thousand majority. After all the Opposition blowing and denunciation of “nigger” suffrage, Mr. Tift must have received the suffrage of live thousand “niggers.” The fact of the negroes voting is not what really troubles the Democracy but the ticket they vote. That's what's the matter. * Premature Rejokt.no. —In some |>or tions of the country “one hundred guns' 1 were fired in honor of the vote on the Eleventh Article, bv which the President was acquitted. Hold up, gentlemen. It is by no moans certain yet that President Johnson will not he convicted. Hut if he should not be, lie is utterly powerless, lie can not prevent the return of the .States seeking admission. Once in. they will add twenty thoroughly loyal Senators, and titty thor oughly loyal members of the House, to the Republican majorities in the two bodies. Any overt act on the part of the President to prevent the return of this ■ States would lend to his re-impcnchment and immediate conviction, lie knows this, and will net with more caution and more respect for the law in future. ♦ ♦ Webster Keit di vi i.u.— The teord'Dem ocrat.’ —Noah Webster was not only the best lexicographer of the English language, but lie was a straight out, old-fashioned Connecticut Democrat. He defines—as you will sec by consulting bis Dictionary—a ‘Democrat’to be “one who favors the ex tension of the right of suffrage to all classes of men.” But some of our friends tell us that politics have changed since Webster’s time, and that he did not regard Negroes as men. By referring to his DicMouary, however, we find that he defines a Negro to be “one belonging to the black race of Men.” . * Tiie lUnkritt Lvw. It may not be known to some of our readers that what is called the fifty per cent, clause ot this act takes effect on the Ist of June next: that after that date no one can take the benefit of the act whose estate will not pay fifty per cent, to his creditors. The adjourn ment of Congress, and the present state of the impeachment question, renders it less likely that any extension of this time will be given by Congress. It therefore becomes those who intend to petition for adjudica tion of Bankruptcy to apply in aeasou. Heavv. —The over-moral conductors of the Macon Journil <(• Messmjer are “catch ieg it” all around. The last castigation, very well administered, is from tli" Savannah Republican, in consequence of the former virtuous journal declining to advertise Miss McCulloch's Parlor Opera entertainmentsou the score of “immorality.” Hid you ever! Over this way, all the newspapers, including the self-styled “respectable’’ oiks, as well a? the “obscene Northern paper published in Augusta” (as the Athenian sprig of chiv alry, who ventilates through llie ./. A M., facetiously designates «»). not only published the Opera advertisements, hut seemed to vie with each other in expressions of commend ation of the “immoral entertainments.” Our classic, liberal-minded, excessively pious Macon cotcnipnrary, lurnislies another re markable instance ol “straining at a gate and swallowing n in-" Ting house.” Then and Now. -Time works wonders. In the Chronicle of yesterday, we find an editorial endorsement of Wendell Phillips* view's, against the religious intolerance towards Roman Catholics, by a mail who, in the Know Nothing crusade, made him self famous (or infamous) by his violent harangues against foreigners and the Church of Koine. That's right. Making Mouths.-— MasterKan.-c, coutiu lies to indulge in the juvenile recreation of making mouths at the Commander of the Third Military District. Master Kansi calls General Meade a Lord Lieutenant.” and the District a “satrapy." Master Hansc is a bad boy, and stubborn as a mule. Curious. To see such “old line Whigs' and "Know Nothings" as .Sneed. Ben Hill, Hansc Wright, and Steve Walton looking to the Democratic party for promotion. Verily, men have changed i EXTRACT From the letter of the Atlanta corres pondent of the Washington Chronicle, of the 18th inst.: PKBKO.X u. iN -• t:< i it if r. There are quito a number ol Uiqiublican member* elect who have taken reitio,; here since election to the Legislature, to escape the fate of poor Ashlmrn. Those who do remain at homo in the more violent portions of the State, sic p a.i their father;-; did when the red man infested the conn try—with weapons in tiu-ir liauds. I nm aware that the Democratic press, North and South, denv this charge. However, if the intelligent readers ol the Chronicle will reflect a moment, 1 will demonstrate its truth. It. is not alleged that llie leading, influential citizens would in their own per sons commit violence It is their intoler ance and violence of minim r toward those who differ from them, which make life unsafe her . For instance, these highly respectable Dem tci-.it ; say that every man who voted lor Bullock “first obtained iti.x own consent to become n thief/* Thou there i.s u cl.Vs* ol pe *pl«: hi the South whose highest ambition is to Im the j»tcm.fsoi* of a of tobacco, a bottle of whisk 1 y, and a ‘iix shooter. With these they are ready to exterminate all outspoken Union ueoi. It is hecausc tln.Bc lawless chaiacDi art encouraged and su.st tined hy the chivalry that no prominent m n\s life is s ilc unless he bends the knee to tin* Democratic Ra il. 'Fhe country is already familiar with the cruel and cowardly assassination of Gtdouxd G. W. Ashburn. I believe that man would have been alive to day had it. not been for the action of the landlord of the Derry House at Columbus. Ashhurn was a quiet, orderly, sober, intelligent, cleanly man, who always paid his bills. Vet lor hi > radical ism he was turned out ol the hotel. When the rowdies saw the lending citizens ap pluuding this kind o! proscription, they naturally supposed they could kill Colonel A - with impunity, and they did it. A DKMOCRATK' (IAMB THAI' DIDN'T PAY- Immediately after the election iho Dem ocrats inaugurated die policy of discharging all their colored employees licit voted the Republican ticket. No sooner did Hon, Foster Blodgett, Mayor of Aligned, hocumo aware of the fact than he boldly announced his determination to feed nil such prescribed persons at the public expense, mid raise the means for so doing by luvying a special tax on the properly of the wealthier citizens. Il was also given out that Iho Legislature, when it assembled, would adopt Blodgett’s policy. General Can by at onite adopted the same policy for North and South Carolina. The result is, the Democrats have abandon ed this species of proscription. For his sngseity, courage, and promptness on all occasions, the Rcnuhlicnns delight Pi call Mr. Blodgett the "Napoleon of the purty” in Georgia. There is no doubt about his election, and that of lion. Joseph K. Brown, to the United States .Senate, when Iho Leg islnture assemble*. Kkiimonii. [ Communicated. THAT COSVENTI ON. Mr. Editor: They aro marshaling their host*—the “rulo or ruin” Ku K Invites. It seems to be a foregone conclusion that they aro to have n Convention of somo sort. The object is avowed : To intimidate and influence the Legislature. The plan is laid u la the "blowhnrd’s” tactics; but tbo result: ah 1 what'll it be ? Similar to the “all respectable preaent” open ticket game, sought to ho practiced at the Constitutional election. Verily, one is reminded of an order impe riously given to a regiment Oil dress parade at an “order arms: close order—march I” Wonder il any tree in Virginia heard that soldierly command —and was it obeyed ? eh ? Selali 1 The Convention must be permitted to assemble, and Dr, Bard’s suggestion adopted. The President must como from this county ; the accustomed speech may relieve the gent. The Convention's influence upon Legislators elect, need not he feared ; uu n who faced the music, in the recent contest, will not be intimidated, hut they will work openly and bravely and unitedly lor the good of the people. Advocates of truth and peace, good government and prosperity, have no reason to entertain fears. Men, unprim iplod, selfish, designing men —office seekers they have always been—will deride, hut Irulli will prevail. Legislators have but to stand, as 1 believe they will, firmly by the right, and the victory will be more glorious than at first anticipated. When the Legislature is convened to act on the XlVtli Article, il can not do more wisely than to proceed to adopt it without debate. The adoption of that article is a ,u'nr ijn r non, up to speak, ol Georgia's ad mission into the Union. He appreciate the necessity of it. Silent, unanimous action, will speak in golden language lor ns. It was Hon. Foster Blodgett, in his speech before the Georgia Constitutional Conven tion, who, in referring to a particular .subject, said : “Devise liberally, gentlemen.” Men should be liberal in their views, and their general policy should he non-dcscriptive ; but circumstances alter eases. The XlVtli Article disfranchises many good nu n in this State, to obtain the removal of whose disa bilities an honest effort should he made. There are others—llio rancid blow-hards— who, for the good of the State, should forever remain under the ban. So mote it be- May '22, 1808. Oldham. THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH. A hill was introduced in Congress, on the 17 1 h instant, by Mr. Wi. lihurae, of Illinois, for tiio construction of a Government tele graph line, under the direction o! the Post Office Depart men*, between New York and Washington, providing that the Postmaster General, within thirty days, advertise in two newspapers in Washington, Baltimore, Phila delphia and New York, for proposals for eonstrui ting a telegraph line from the Post Office in Washington to the Post Office in New York, via Philadelphia au<l Baltimore, and strelr intermediate stations as he may designate.
