A Specimen of Democratic Fairness. The Savannah News speaks of the scalawag paper at Augusta, Bui.lock’s especial organ. We suppose it means the National Hkpubi.ican, though its editor has not the professional cour tesy to designate our paper by its right name. As a specimen of its want of fairness, it is only necessaiy to state that it quotes a recent article of ours expressing the opinion that Congress would take into consideration Geor. gia affairs, but without making any recommendation as to what Con gress ought to do. This the News falsely styles a demand, ami then pro ceeds to unjustly abuse Governor Bullock. We have expressed no opinion as to what should be the action of Congress in December, and have ' not deemed it necessary to do so. We had hoped that the wise and more conservative clement would now come forward, and, by influencing the Democracy to heartily acquiesce in the questions which were irrevocably settled by the American people on Tuesday last, and thus render unneces sary any material Congressional inter ference. When there is a necessity [ for interference to protect its policy, i which has just been endorsed at the polls by the people, this much it is , certain to do, and neither we nor the Savmmah News can prevent i|. We regret to see a disposition on the part of the News to misrepresent our lan , gunge and misconstrue our motives. The Atlanta Intelligencer The al>ovc named paper seems dis posed to do us justice. We have stated in another place that we have expressed no plan for the settlement of the affairs of Georgia by Congress. , We have only stated what the Intelii ; genceT knows as well as we do—that it is not impossible that Congress will I 1 legislate on the subject. Our policy is for the Democrats to pnnnptly accept the situation, frown down all sjiirit of . proscription, and thus let Democrats and Republicans work harmoniously together. We have eunfidently rvlic.l ' on Ihe cooperation of the Int<:lU',i< ncer ’ in this patriotic object. We have not time to pursue the I , . . * i subject this morning, but sliall resume it to-morrow. •♦ ♦♦ ■■ In a Passion. The Atlanta CunsCiliilioti sees fit to , indulge in the following language in re ply to an article which appeared in , this paper a few days ago : i Wf rare nothing for his wishes or ht-> pre i dictions as to the National Legislature ; but , one tiling is dead sure—the time has come when such creatures must lie more cautious and more respectful in the language they use towards our people; there is a point at which forliearance ceases to lie a virtue, and by the ? gods, that point has boon reached, and men 1 will no longer sulmiit to their taunts and in > suits. We make no threats, and “intimida- I firm*’ls not the weapon wc propose to use; I bill we intend to preserve our sclf-re«i>ect . and our itersonal rights; and we iicsitate not 1 to re-amiomicc as a cardinal principle, that the freedom of speech aud of press, carries witli it the freedom of the cudgel. i If the spirit of hostility to the fle- - publicans of Georgia, manifested in the ’ above paragraph, continues to lie entertauicd by the great muss, then may we indeed look for pu interference ’ on the part of the Government. The t campaign was conducted on this dis t tinct issue, and the t erdict is most - emphatic, that throughout the South, that every man of whatever party, should have ample protection in the 3 enjoyment of political principles, and J the exercise of his |M>litical principles, I with no one to molest or make him afraid. When the editor wrote his brutal reference to endgels, and made . his impotent threats against his politi ’ cal opi>onentß,he Was doubtless laboring 1 under the impression that Seymour and Blair had been elected President and Vice-President. We advise him to wake up to a realization that his fond dream is all a dream. When the above extract from his paper reaches the North, and is reproduced Di ere as an evidence of the continued lawless spirit of the Democracy, we shall then hear the Democrats brand ing the extract as a Radical forgery. As to the implied threat to this paper, we have only to state that, as hereto fore, the Rbpuuj.iuax will continue Io be published every morning during the week, except Mondays, and that it* eohunu* will contain the latest com mercial and political news, by mail anil otherwise, and that its editorials w ill criticise, fearlessly, the course of such men as conduct themselves in a manner injiMions to the welfare of the State and Union. We shall also jmb lish a Weekly, every Saturday, at the low price of $2 per annum, in advance. And ail this without the fear of any i»otjy’>s Cudgel. General Grant. Tlie New York Times hojies that with the election of Gen. Gbant we shall enter upon a new era iu politics, and that the passions of the war, which have of late been revived witli f<uch unfortunate results to Ihe Demo cratic party, will once more be laid to sleep and forever. Certainly no Southerner who has five wits can sup pose that the m.iu who accorded such wise and magnanimous terms to Lee at Appomattox, will now be led into any extravagant or migenerous action towards those whom he then treat ed with such forbearance. He is to he ft listed now, as he was trusted then, and the Southern people will do well to visit w ith their displeasure the wild and furious advocates of the Lost Cause, who, by proclaiming the con trary, have again led them into defeat and disappointment. No good can come of following any further their preposterous counsels. What the South needs is not reviling and pas sion, but respect for the authority of the Government, submission to the law, industry, and practical common sense. The worst enemies of the South to day are such misguided men as expend their strength in useless im precations upon the Northern Radicals, like the following, whigh we copy from a Southern journal: •Eternal tortures rack their bones, Cramps gnarl their writhing joints, Mountains crush their hearts of stone, Their feet tread needles’ points. Lightnings blast their demon vision, Jarring thunders rend their brain; Mocking fiends, in fell derision, Chant their acts in choral strain. '■'This the rebel patriot's prayer, The soldier of the past; That man who lives to do ' id dare. Defiant to the last.” This sort of folly and fustian had now better be laid aside, and we do not doubt that the mass of .Southern men will agree with us iu this opinion. The soldier of the past can best serve, his country and his pcojile by becom ing the efficient laborer of the present; and the best prayer for the rebel pat riot, as for all of us, is honest work and fidelity to our duties. -. Foolish’ Uai.culations. -borne of the Democrats foolishly imagine that the first step that will be taken by Gen. Grant, after his inauguration, will be to raise a rumpus in his own party. What sort of peace would be that that gladdened the Democrats, and maddened the Republiciuis ? Tliat is Andrew Johnson’s idea of pacifica tion; but it is not Gen. Gba.nt’s, as it was not Mr. Lincoln's. The Right Spirit.—The Macon Telegraph contains the following : Wc s;q , then, let. us wait until it Is proved that General Grant docs not mean fairly bv the Southern whiles, before wc denounce his Administnition. Some of the Georgia Radi cal papers say we arc to have an era of pence and good will, aud it is time it should come. It may be that we .shall have a revival of the good old days of Monroe, and cry, “Wc arc all Fcderafists—we »uo all Republicans 1” Who knows 't Let ns pray for it. We shake hands with our cotempo rary on that. Wo c/m have a revival of good feeling, if all hands will only try. But the work must commence right here at homo, among our own people. The country is panting for peace. AU parties desire it. We all belong to the same country. We must all obey the same laws. When we cannot agree, let’s “agree to disa gree,” and cease all uncharitable de nunciation and uncivilized proscription of those who may not lie able to reach the same conclusions and support the saine party with ourselves. c .... —. Register.—Let every citizen quali fied to vote, who desires the l»est interest of the city, who loves peace and ipiiet, and wishes to see the gov ernment of the city of Augusta in accord and harmony with the govern ment of the United States and the State of Georgia, go and register; thus placing himself iu a position to vote for a Mayor and Council that con <tml will prutect all citizens alike—the poor as well as the rich, the black as well as the white. - - I . Worthy or Imitation.—On the night of the 4th inst., the Republicans had a torch-light procession at New Haven, Connecticut, in honor of their great victory. A telegram stales that the Democrats, in an organized body, joined the procession, bearing a banner with the inscription: “Let us be friends.” I’liis conduct was noble and patriotic, and is well worthy of muta tion. Why cannot the Democracy of Georgia follow the example of their Northern allies ? We have hopes that the more sensible and reasonable will do so. Fi iendship at home between Republicans and Democrats is the nigh-cut to peace. -*-Young ladies, says the’Washing ton Star, who arc given to indulging in the latest styles should be on the look out for a plainly dressed benev olent faced elderly gentleman from the country who is just now frequenting our popular street* arimsl witli a vial of peppermint, which he insists on offering to passers-by who display the Grecian liend.

F. J. Robinson. Silent Men.—Washington never made a speech. In the zenith of his fame he once attempted it, failed, and gave it up confused and abashed. In inching the Constitution of the United States, the labor was wholly perform ed in committee oi the whole,of which George Washington w as day after day, the chairman, but lie made but two speeches during the convention, of a ven few words each. The conven tion, however, acknowledged the mas ter spirit, and historians affirm that had it not been for his personal popularity and the thirty words of his first speech, pronouncing 5t the best that could be united upon, the Constitution would have been Rejected by the people. Thomas Jeffui'son never made a speech. He couldn’t 3o it. Married Without Gloves.—A few days since a young gentleman and young lady appeared at the parsonage of an eminciit clergyman of this city, for the purpose of having their respec tive destinies united in the holy bonds of matrimony. Everything being ready, the clergyman aforesaid was about to proceed with the ceremony, when the young lady discovered that she was minus the kid gloves so neces sary on such occasions; whereupon she requested her affianced to hasten to a store and procure the indispensa ble kids, telling him to be “in a burry or she might change her mind.” The clergyman, witnesses and in tended bride w aited some time for the return of the youth with the gloves; he didn’t come. They waited longer, awl -trH bewailed to put in Ills appear ance. The matter at last becoming really serious and alarming, the clergy man took his hat and proceeded, post haste, in search of the truant lover, whom he found, after a diligent search and many in<piiries, quietly seated on the veranda of the Park House, with his feet elevated on the back of a chair and very deliberatUy puffing a cigar. On being asked to explain his singular conduct, he carelessly remarked that he “was waiting to see if she was go ing to change her mind.” They w ere married however, at last, after two hours delay.— Ottawa {111.)
