THE SPEAKING LAST NIGHT.
Ben Hill and Bob Toombs were sere
naded last night, Toombs played “second
fiddle" to Bex. Our reporter was on the
ground, and took copious notes of both
speeches. To-morrciw we will comment on
the warlike utterances of these eminent
bomb-proofs as we think they deserve.
Hill said, that if the- election was to
come off to-morrow, Grant would not
receive five hundred white votes in Georgia,
and not more than one-half of the colored
vote. In November, he did not think there
would be five white votes for the Republi -
cans. He declared that Charles J.
and that the Democracy would reinstate
him.
Toombs was even more violent than
Hill. He gloried in his past record, and
said he had nothing to take back. He
denounced the people of Richmond county
for having permitted Gov. Bullock 'to
live here, and declared that Hon. Foster
Blodgett was a dirty dog, and more
infamous than the Governor. He said
that if the Democrats submitted to Re
publican rule, they were more infamous
than Gov. Brown had said they were.
If there were doubts before that H.ll
and Toombs contemplate another war, last
night’s work must have convinced all
sceptics. +
JUDGE GIBSON CONFIRMED.
Our dispatches announce the nomination
and confirmation of Hon. Wm. Gibson, of
this city, as Judge of the Middle Circuit.
Judge Gibson is a talented lawyer and an
upright Judge. No better selection could
have been made. Indeed, all of Governor
Bullock’s Judicial appointees are men of
the highest character. They are too, as
they should be, all advocates of peace and
against Nullification. f
“Horrible Stench.” The Chronicle
of yesterday contains a cordial invitation
to “colored Democrats” *to attend a
meeting of a Democratic Club on Ellis
street The same paper, in its issue of the
day previous, referring to a heavy shower
of rain at Atlanta, on the 18th instant, and
to the fact that there was a large number
of colored Republicans in attendance on
the Grant and Colfax mass meeting,
says:
hensions were euiei caurcu Cu ax'-rnt’i.
stench arising from this vast mass of black
humanity would cause an influx of fevers
and probably the cholera.
It appears that a “colored Democrat"
don't smell bad, but that colored Republi-.
cans create a “horrible stench. - The
Chronicle now is fearful of the cholera.
That disease is said to be intensely painful
in the stomach. We rather think that the
colored Republicans will give the Nulli
fiers a fatal pain in their stomachs on the
3d of November, and after that wc shall
have the “horrible stench” of the dead and
rotten Democratic yarty of Georgia. f
Bad Made iVorse.—The Chronicle of
yesterday corrects itj “yrror” (a new name
for falsehtod) of the day previous, in regard
to the tliriy-scven little white girls who
personaed the thirty-seven States in the
Union. *t Atlanta, on the 18lh ; but, in its
corree'on, it makes bad worse by publishing
a viicslander on the little innocents. Men

JOHNSON MENRKPUDtATE
SEYMOUR
A citizen of Indiana, writing to the
Now Fork ZVmw, aaya:
Very mhny influential gentleman who,
for tha JaM two or three years, have boon
acting with the Democratic party, now
come out in favor of Grant and Colfax.
There it in the whole State of Indiana not a
Republican who supported l\fs:dent Johnson
in 1866, awl who ww riot now turned hi*
back in the most emphatic manner on the
Democratic party. Gen. Thos. N. Stillwell,
Hon. David Kilgore, Hon. Alfred Kilgore,
Garland D. Rose of Indianapolis, Col. R.
H. Hudson of Torre Haute, Gen. Grose,
Hon. John Purdue, W. IL Ellis, Esq., Col.
Gavin, and hundreds of other leading
men, who, two years ago, aroted against
the Radical ticket, are now battling with
the utmost energy for the candidates
nominated at Chicago. If the Republi
cans without their aid carried Indiana two
years ago by 14,000 majority, how can the
Democrats, now that the Conservative ami
Radical Republicans are thoroughly united
and fighting the common foe with the
utmost enthusiasm, expect anything but
au overwhelming defeat iff this State ?
The Johnson Republicans throughout
the North are repudiating Seymour and
Blair with as great unanimity as are those
of Indiana. Until the Congressional plan
of reconstruction became an accomplished
fact, they earnestly opposed it; but now
that most of the States have becuufning
structed. thev are •'••»? lorce. The De.
inocracy being pledged to violence, these
Johnsonites are now the most earnest
advocates of- Grant and Peace. Not
withstanding these significant facts, there
are enthusiastic individuals that seem
to believe that Seymour will be elected
President. They all live South, however,
and most of them had faith in the success
of the Confederacy, until the surrender of
Lee and Johnston and the capture of
Jeff. Davis. f
STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
The Republican Convention at Atlanta,
re organized the Republican State Central
Committee. lion. Foster Blodgett was
unanimously elected its Chairman, and Mr.
Watson, of Fulton, Secretary. No better
selection could have been made. Mr.
Blodgett was chairman during the Con
vention and Gubernatorial campaigns, and
won golden opinions for the energy and
sagaeityof his management. Hisselection
for the Chairmanship of the Committee for
the ensuing canvass is a sufficient guarantee
that the party will be thoroughly organized,
that our full strength will be polled, and
that the State will go for Grant and Col
fax by a large majority. Mr. BlodCett
has the wisdom to do the right thing at the
right time, and the patriotism and un -
conquerable energy to defeat all the artful
schemes and reckless machinations of
those who hope to secure the vote of Geor.
gia for Seymour and Blair. f
Model Friends.- —The Democracy are
incessantly whispering soft words in the
ears of the colored people, and protesting
the earnestness, of their friendship for the
black race. They expatiate on the ncccs
the races. They “bill and coo’’ most
lovingly with the sable sons of Ham, and
claim that the Democracy are. the most
reasonable creatures in the world. a The
conduct of these wire-workers reminds us
very forcibly of the expression of a brute
of a husband to a kind and affectionate
wife: “Wife, I am a model of good nature
and meekness; all I claim is for you to do
just as I d—d please." So with the De
mocracy. All they ask of the colored man
is to admit that he ought not to be allowed
to vote, and that being allowed, he should
vote the Democratic ticket. But when a
colored man even hints that the right of
the ballot is necessary for the protection of
white and black alike, and that, by voting
the Democratic ticket he would do violence
to his conscience and his judgment,
liecause the Democracy believe that he
shonld have no vote, and are pledged to
take away from him the right to do so, the
aforesaid “best friends” at once threaten a
war of races anil the ex term in ntien of tlic
entire race. That “model husband” must
have been a Southern Democrat. +
A Democratic Wish. —An Augusta Dem
ocrat, in conversation with a Republican, a
few days since, remarked that he “would
rejoice to see the Savannah river filled with
dead negroes.” The same man paid over
fifty thousand dollars to keep out of the
Southern army. He would, doubtless, lib
erally patronize a colored Democratic club.
Congressional Convention. —General
Marion Betuaaie has called a Convention
of the Republican party of the Third Con
gressional District, to assemble at La-
Grange, on the 3d of September, to nomi-
JU XiongrfAS. t
. Rats Deserting Sinking Ships.—The
Raleigh (N. C.) Standard says that lion.
Nat Boyden, Democratic Congressman
from that State will not support Seymour
and Blair. Wise old rats know when a
ship is sinking. f
Still Another.—There was no more
gallant soldier in the Federal army than
General Walter Whitaker, of Kentucky.
Since the war he has supported the Demo
cratic party. He now supports Ghani and
Colfax. . f
REPUBLICAN EXECUTIVE COM

party that advocates le reverse of what is

I protest in lhe name of enlightened
Judaism against this dngooniug system and
continual harping q the “ old ancient
grudge. , . i
We are not Jews a any political sense.
We are, what is of far no«e value, American
citizens, and a>- saehjean and will vote for
the candidal' of ou f be that Grnnt or
Seymour. We are nt living in England,

lessons taught as the air we breathe,
know that hsnip God according to lhe
we can of conscience; that we owe no
distance to class, and that the fostering of
prejudice and the accursed spirit Os ex
clusiveness that have marked our race
should cease and forever, being detrimental
to the progress of free thought and true
progress.
Accursed will be the day when Jews, as a
class,' commit the uspardonable crime of
becoming sectarian in their politics, Know-
Nothings among Americans. If such things
should come to pass I wish to place ray
protest on record, for no matter how much
of an error General Grant or any one else
may have committed, I will not forget what
I owe the country that has fostered and
protected me in the exercise of free thought.
I will not forget that, if oppression and
prejudice have overtaken us, they were
mainly attributable- to the very sectarian
spirit that is here sought to be perpetuated.
You, Mr. Max, or any other Israelite, can
in your individual capacity as American
citizens vote and speak against Gen. Grant
as much as you please —that is one of your
inalienable rights and privileges ; but forbear
to use it iu a religious sense.
I know General Grant and his motives ;
Save corresponded with hitn on this very
subject, and assert unhesitatingly that he
never intended to insult any honorable Jew;
that he never thought of their religion ; that
the order was simply directed against certain
evil-designing persons, who respected neither
law nor order, and who were endangering the
morale of the army. General Grant is not
the only man who, daring the war, commit
ted wrongs agaihst the holiest rights. Fre
mont, Burnside, even the lamented Lincoln,
were not free from them, and Congress had
to legalize, subsequently, acts performed
against Hie plainest rules of law and justice;
bnl the emergencies of the time made them
necessary, and an Anglo-Saxon race, ever
ready to defend their principles, suffered
these wrongs, because they were necessary
to the preservation of the republic.
Having lived in Washington for the last
six years, I know how many of our people
were indifferent to the cause, and how many
.only cared for the spoils. This they had,
howevri-, iu coifitnoii with other persons, and
I took every occasion to defend my race
against cruel aspersion and uncalled-for
prejudice, but yet I can not shut nly eyes to
owing no allegiance to the Government,
having ever a passport near, endangered the
army, laughed at army regulations and
orders, and when caught, attempted to bribe
their way to freedom. This was a state of
things highly demoralizing, and the General,
in a moment of just indignation, and in an
hour of great peril, issued this order, never
contemplating any wrong against honest,
patriotic Jewish-American citizens.
The order never harmed me never
harmed any one, not even in thought, except
those whom we, as Jews, despise and hold in
contempt.
It would be perfect folly to suppose for a
moment that the Jews<have found in Grant
another Titus, for he is fully aware of the
noble deeds performed by thousands of
Jewish privates and hundreds of Jewish
officers during the late war; and 1 know
that some of his warmest friends, even in
Washington, are Jews. The bugbear of
what he may do when he becomes President
is childish. He will do his nuty as the law
and the will of the people, through their
chosen representatives, prescribe: no more
—no less.
This great love, all at once exhibited by
the Democratic party, or, any other party,
this great tolerance prated about by Christ
ians for Jews, is simply absurd. We are not
Jews except to God ; we are to the country
what Mr. Smith, Jones, or Brown are—
citizens. We seek no tolferauca- from any
one in this age of progress and ennobling
humanity. Tolerauce is ftr slaves, not for
Americans. 8. Wolf.
