Wc consider the postponement of the Congressional election until February as vacating all the nominations macle, either by the Republican or Democratic parties. These nominations were macle under the impression that the election would take place in November, and while the political circumstances of the State remained un changed. Now, no one who is at all acquainted with those circumstances can pretend to deny that the political atmos phere indicates a total change to take place at an early clay. After the election of Grant in November, many qf those who are now halting between two opinions will have decided upon their course—many who are violently opposed to Republican ism will let their better reason operate, and will take sides for peace and a stable Government. Representatives nominated now and elected in February, will repre sent quite a different condition of affairs from that which prevails now. The opinions of those in nomination now, may not and most likely will not be the opinions of the majority of the people then. It is better, therefore, to consider ail the nominations made here tofore as null and void—to call conven tions, after the election of Grant, to select new candidates, who shall represent the feelings of the people as they exist at that time. The present nominations, Republican or Democratic, in all probability, will not be such as will suit either party, after the Presidential election, even if, after that time, parties, a,s they are at present con structed, exist. Who can doubt that, after the election of Gkant—an event that is as certain to happen as the sun sets on the third of November—the Republican party will be all-powerful in Georgia? The scoundrels who are now persecuting, proscribing and murdering will quail before the tremen dous demonstrations of the popular will. i The weak-kneed and anxious—those who would be patriots if they dared to—will gain strength to speak with louder voices, ! and each will say to the other: “If you have whispered truths, Whisper no longer, But apeak as the thunder speaks - ‘ Sterner and stronger." “ OH, LORD, HOW LONG?"' We have no heart to comment on the multitude of sickening atrocities perpe trated throughout Georgia by the Demo cratic party. Every mail brings us the i mournful intelligence of some fresh out > rage on the person of some defenceless ’ supporter of Grant and Colfax. No voice of rebuke of these assassinations and. outrages comes from any Democratic or Conservative source. The whole party is ; responsible for this fiendish state of affairs. The so-called conservative element are the guiltiest, because they bad the power to have frowned down this jay-hawking mode of electioneering. With cunning duplicity, Judge Cabiniss is flooding the North with his specious falsehoods about the peaceable disposition of his party. Yet he knows his statements are grossly and wickedly untrue. lie is not, cannot, be ignorant of the bloody spirit of the Democracy in Baker, Mitchell, Columbia, Elbert, Warren, Wilkes—in fact, everywhere, except in the large cities. Then, Judge Cabiniss, speak out! If you are a Christian, have this murdering cease. It cannot benefit the Democracy. But it will ruin Georgia. We have before us a string of resolutions adopted by a Democratic Club in Warren «>unty. They are published in the War renton Clipper, a Democratic paper, and therefore their authenticity cannot be ques tioned. That paper says that the Club consists of sixty-nine white and seventeen colored Democrats. Here is one of the resolutions which was unanimously adop ted: 4th. Resolved, That we propose to give our assiitance to the Democrats of Warren county, I to prevent any eealawag or Radical from making I epeeckee and trying to create strife between thy white and black. There it is in black and white. Read it Union men, read it Northern men, read it Christian men. How does that resolution tally with Cabiniss' address ? Is there any free discussion about this ? If that resolu tion don’t mean mob law what docs it mean ? Will the day of deliverance never come? “How long? Oh Lord! How long ?” < GORDON GRANGER SENT TO TENNESSEE. The President has ordered “Old Pap’’ Thomas from his command of Kentucky and Tennessee, and has designated Gen. Gordon G banger to temporarily discharge Gen. Thomas’ duties. This is to give the Tennessee Ku-Klux full swing in Novem ber. But it won’t win. Those maurauders had better look sharp ui BROWNLOW will give some of the guiltier ones a swing they don’t like. Gordon Granger is one of the few Federal officers who support Seymour.— His head is sore because Gen. Gkant, during the war, did not entertain as high opinions of Gordon Granger’s soldierly qualities as the latter entertained of him self. That he is a conceited blusterer will, readily be seen when wc repeat a scrap of war history which has not yet been made public. In thq winter of 1803, when Gen. Gkant was at Chattanooga, he telegraphed to Gen. Foster-or Burnside, at Knoxville, asking how long that city could be held, or, whether it could be held ? Granger was present, and replied to the*dispatch, substantially as follows: “Wc can hold Knoxville until hell freezes over.” In less than a month afterward, General Gordon Granger was relieved- from his command by General Grant, and exiled, wc bclieve*to Louisiana. At any rate, he never served another day under General Grant's immediate command. In striking contrast to Granger's was the response of George 11. Thomas as to. whether he could hold Chattanooga : “Wo will hold it till we starve.” And his army was actually starving then. But he held Chattanooga. A MUCH NEEDED REFORM. It is now an almost universal habit in our State Legislature for the defeated party on every question to move a reconsidera tion. This leads to interminable discus sion. We are sure wc are not wide of the mark in stating that the two Houses have averaged an expenditure of live hundred dollars per day of the State’s funds in the discussion of motions to reconsider. As the rules now stand, one obstinate member can move to reconsider, and discuss the merits of reconsideration, although he may be aware that every one of his fellow members arc unalterably opposed to recon, sideration. The rule in Congress, and in most of the State Legislatures, is, that only such as vote with the majority can move a reconsideration, and he must do so within a specified time. This should be the rule in the Georgia Legislature. After the first two sessions of the present General Assem bly, the sessions will be limited to forty days, except they are extended by concur rent resolution of two-thirds of both Houses. By changing the rule, so that only a member voting with the majority shall move a reconsideration, much time and money will be saved. Then we shall not hear of so many motions to recon sider. The majority is generally satisfied with the result, and the minority is ever ready to reconsider. What Senator or Representative will take the lead in this all-important reform? He that will, be he Republican or Democrat, will find his conduct approved by the people. Advised to “ Stick.’’—The Atlanta CW stitution advises the Legislature not to ad journ. He warns them to “stick." The editor knows that those twenty odd usurpers of seats belonging to other men, and those thirty-nine there in open defiance of the Constitutional Amendment, will not get a smell of that nine dollars per day after the election of Grant. Then they will have to surrender their seats to their lawful pos sessors, and will no longer draw nine dollars , a day and mileage. “ Sticking” now is like I making hay when the sun shines. _ 1 Black Mailing.—Some of the Democracy in his District are making a great show of opposition to the nomination of John Mor rissey, prize-fighter and gambler, for Con gress. This is only a shrewd way of black mailing John, who has money, and the cor rupt bar-room and other pensioners simply intend to make him shell out; he will shell out. The Democratic loafers will have'high old drunks, and John will go to Congress. The Difference.—The Democracy are sending colored men all over the State in order to induce the colored people to vote for Seymour aud Blair. -They are not molested. When the Reptiblieans send out a colored man he is assassinated. That is the kind of freedom meted out to Repub licans in Georgia. What was the Matter i— lt seems that the Great Blusterer wans’t«We recent Blair gathering in Wilkes county. No cause is assigned for his indisj.vsitivn_ Wonder if it ain’t the old complaint ? Senator Wilson’s Opinion.—Senator Wilson, on his return from a campaign tour through Pennsylvania, expressed the opinion that that State was-as sure tor the Republi cans as was Maine. He estimates the ma jority at from 15,000 to 20,000. Court Scene in New Orleans.—The New Orleans Picayune is responsible for the following : The Judge ot one of our municipal courts sat gloomy and grand on his bench of ermine. The prisoner occupied the dock apparently meek and downcast. She had a merry twinkle in her eye, however, that promised mischief, and had the magnate but perceived it, he would have been more careful in his questions. “ How many times are you coming up here ?” “ What, yer honor?” “ How many times are you coining before me? This is the third time the present week." “Oh, no, yer honor." “Didn’t I sec you here yesterday ?’’ “Why, no, yer honor ; it was last night yer seed me in the concert saloon. It was a bit ot drink we bad together, and yflr honor did talk beautifully, wid yer cunning ways and saucy jokes. Aye, yer honor’s the man : for the gals.

September 30, 1868. Wonders never will cease. President Johnson hqs received another Republican delegation from the South, and granted all that was asked. The Alabama delegation have fully accomplished all they came here for, and, as a consequence, are much elated. Mr. Johnson has some good points- Let him have his own way, and 'he is as easily guided as a child: oppose him, and he is like a mule. At firs’, the delegation was received rather coldly by the President, he being on the defensive. Finding no one to make an attack, he lowered his quills aud opened his mind to conviction. The result you know. Thoro is a cause for this change of feel ing toward Southern Republicans on the part of the President. He has been badger ed at almost every turn by Democratic poli ticians until his patience is exhausted.— Vallandighain, Pendleton, Seymour, the Blairs, Belmont, and a score of lesser lights, have plead and scolded tor a more out-and out Democratic policy and hungry office seekers have importuned for place, but all in vain. Mr. Johpson stood these attacks un til patience ceased to be a virtue, and then struck back by asking the suggestive ques tion, “What has the Democratic party done for me that I .should serve it ?” Were it not for the'old feud with Grant I firmly be. lieve the President would do everything in his power to defeat Seymour and Blair- lie feels that he gave them all the capital they have had during the three last years to maintain their organization, and fully expected a recognition of his services by being selected as the party standard bearer. As it is, the President to-day oc cupies the position of the man when lie saw his wife and a bear taking a hug—he don’t care much who is elected. There has been another conversion in the Navy Department. Since the Maine elec tion, Father Welles has become conscious of the fact that the Republican cause is sure to triumph in November, and ho bitterly regrets the aid he extended to the Maine Democracy. Randall, member of Congress, of Pennsylvania, called at the Navy Depart ment, , immediately after the election, to carry out a previously arranged programme as to the Philadelphia Navy Yard, when he was summarily snubbed and sent about his business. The Cabinet now stands three Republicans—Seward, Welles and Evarts— to five Democrats. The Postmaster-General is only‘awaiting ‘a favorable opportunity to declare for Grant; be probably will do so by the 14th of October, for he likes to be on the winning side. An Alabama gentleman, a native of the Stat”, and before the war a large slave holder, but now an active Republican, a few days ago bad an interview with the Presi-' dent, and opened the eyes of that functionary by relating to him a plain, unvarnished tale, as to the condition of affairs in that State, i he gentleman referred to told the President that be had been warned a score of times within the last month by leading Democrats residing in his neighborhood, who had known him from boyhood, that if Seymour aud Blair should be elected, every carpet bagger and scalawag in the State would be hanged, aud he was selected as the first vic tim. These cowardly threats to Union men, he told th _■ President, were of daily occur rence, and made publicly. This, and an array of similar fact::, seemed to open a new chapter of the rebellion to the President, as though he had never heard of such outrages before, or believed them now for the first time. The next rebel delegation that comes along will probably dispel his fears by a glossary ot lies. Writing of “carpet baggers” reminds me of thp tact that three-fourths of the members ot the present Congress, from the old free States, represent States in which they were not born. In a word, according to the rebel chroniclers, they are carpet-baggers. 1 observe that the rebel editors are trying to quality this term by confining its application to Northerners who go South solely to seek office, and, failing in this, return to the North again—but that men who go there to locate and engage in some legitimate busi ness are respected, and their rights protected. The falsity of thi;j statement is apparent in every Southern Democratic newspaper issued. I venture the assertion, that nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thou sand office-holders in the Southern States had, at the time of their election or appoint ment, some legitimate business where they resided. (Officers of the Army and the Freedmen’s Bureau, of course, are not in cluded in this category ; they are sent South for a special purpose, and have as much right to reside in one State as another.) Take the members of Congress as an exam ple, and, with one single exception, they ail would come under the modified form of carpet-baggers. And which one, in the whole seven States, of these members has not been slandered aud abused by the fiends in human shape who eon trol tha rebel or Democratic press of the South ? There is not a single exception, One of the best abused men of the lot is Senator Abbott, oi North Culo’iiia. He fought his way into the State over Fort Fisher, at the head of a division, and has remained there ever ;i:icc. Directly and indirectly, through bis agency, he has brought into the State during the last three years more than one million dollars, and hundreds of able-bodied men ; he has a large capital of his own invested, aud gives constant employment to more than two hun dred aud fifty person-. He has built up a village on one of his plantations, containing one hundred and fifty houses, and is con stantly exerting his influence to bring Northern capital and muscle into the State. He has done more during the last few years for Ihe good of his adopted State than a thousand of your Grahams aud Vances could do in a life time. And yet every rebel paper, from one end of the State to the other, has endcawred to heap obloquy upon his name. Such is a leading carpet-bagger of North Carolina. A private letter from Texas, to an officer of the Government, asserts that the butcher Quantrel, who suddenly disappeared during the latter part of the war, and was supposed to have been killed, is alive in Texas, and at the head of a band of robbers, murdering and harrassing Union people. Efforts will be made doubtless to capture him. Quan trtf! and Forrest would make excellent Dem ocratic Congressmen. Ihe people of your neighboring State of Alabama should be' on the lookout for a dangerous set of carpet-baggers who have recently visited that State from Boston, Massachusetts. They have obtained control and will complete, at an early day if Grant is elected, the Chattanooga and Meridian ; Railroad, which will materially shorten the 1 distance tartween New York and New Orleans. The agent of this Company, while | there a few weeks ago, left word that if the Solorcd men were discharged for voting the • Republican ticket, he would furnish em ployment for ten thousand of them on the Railroad. These Boston carpet-baggers should be looked after forthwith by the K. K.’s. It is a matter of official record hero that the K. K.’s can raise four hundred men, masked, armed and mounted in half a day in every county o( Alabama. Anther dangerous institution for the K. K.’s is the National Freedmen's Savings Trust Company. By the official report for the last month it appears that the total deposits in the several branches !<n- the month amounted to $233,014.40. During the same period of time there was drawn out $220,103.17, making an excess of de posits over drafts of $12,851.28. The total amobnt now on deposit—sß3s,s2l.47 —a handsome sum when it is considered these people don't know how to take care of them selves. « Within the next two weeks the turning point in the campaign will be reached— that is if Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana go Republican on the 13th of October, then the Democrats agsec to give up the contest for President. You might as well get your big gun ready to announce the victory, for these States will astonish all rebeldom by their Republican majorities. Blair, jr, is here on another Hying visit to consult with his Pa, at Silver Springs. He is morose and sour, and will leave for the west to-night. The pluck is all out of him. The dead lock in the Board of Aldermen has been broken and a Republic in Presi dent has been elected. This places the whole city government in Republican hands. The Army is to be weeded again—Gen. Grant having issued an order which will result in the removal of all incompetents whether that incompetency comes from whisky or gambling. The meeting of the “Boys in Blue - ’ at Philadelphia, to-morrow, bids fair to eclipse any previous meeting of these veterans. The “loyal Governors'' will also be present. The ball is rolling.
