SUNDAY MORNING...Nov. 22, 1868
Union—Liberty—J n Miro.
This is a Republic where the Will of
the People is the Law of the Land..
[U. 8. Graxt.
“ Watch over the preservation of the Union
with zealous eye, and indignantly frown upon
the first dawning of every attempt to alienate
any portion of the Country from the rest, or
to enfeeble the sacred ties, which now link
together the various parts."— Washington's
Farbwei.l Address.
■ Immigration and Kindred Subjects.
The question of immigration seems
just now to be attracting a good deal
of attention. A committee of gentle
men have published an address to the
people, recommending that each
county send one or more delegates to
a meeting, or convention, to be held
at Macon, 011 the 9th proximo.
It is the object of these gentlemen
to obtain immigrants, to be employed
as mere laborers ip the cotton and
corn fields, by the month or year.
We arc inclined to the opinion that
they will be disappointed. Our peo
ple have not, us yet, sufficiently recov
ered from the old way of doing things
to render the employment of white
laborers on an extensive scale practi
cal, at present. Besides, the colored
man can and will work cheaper, and
can perform the work more satisfac
torily, than can newly arrived white
laborers. The habits of the black
man enables him to live cheaper than
white men can, or, at least, tlum they
will We believe all that is necessary
to get nearly the entire colored popu
lation (save in the towns and cities,
whore white and black loafers will
alike congregate) to lal>or industri,
ously, is for all the whites, in good
faith, to recognize them as citizens,
entitled to all the rights of other citi
zens, and cease attempting to conqud
him to vote any particular ticket.
If rrt» Msrxmi when
it assembles, will take this matter dfa
passionately into consideration, and
not attempt to make political capital
out of their deliberations, we think
they will bestow much of their
thought to devising plans to induce
the laborers we already have in Geor
gia to engage in profitable employment.
There are thousands of white men in
the State who scarcely earn their salt.
The more ambitious of them are look
ing out for clerkships, or longing to
attach themselves to some one of the
professions, where, as drones, they
will eke out a miserable existence.—
But the great mass do absolutely noth
; ing, except to indulge in complaints at
! what they are pleased to term their
bad luck. Now, this class could be
’ righteously visited with social ostra
cism. Yet, the old men—the monos
character and industrious habits—
bluntly inform all such that they are a
disgrace to the State, and at the same
time encourage them to go to work.
There are many reasons why immi
grants will not be disposed to come to
■ the State in groat numbers to hire out
as laborers ou farms. Those that do
come—and they are of a better class—
will prefer to purchase a little farm
and go it ou their “own hook” in their
own way. This latter class will add
materially to tlxe intelligence and
wealth of the State.
But it is idle to talk of immigration
while there exists iu the State such an
intense hatred of everything and every
body that does not support the Demo
cratic party. There has existed ir
this State, for the past twelve months,
a well-undenttood conspiracy to
break down every man who favored
the Republican party. If he was a
butcher, the word was circulated from
family to family, “that man is a Re
publican—do not patronize him.” So
with every other business. This dis
honorable and unchristian species of
warfare is now being carried on in
Augusta and throughout Georgia, and
not one prominent Democrat has con
demned it. They rather encourage
and lead on in the damnable crusade.
There isnot-a minister in AugustuChris
tian enough to rebuke it, although they
cannot be ignorant of its existence.
Instead of teaching a Christian spirit,
some of the ministers have openly en
couraged such proscription. The
Church ia prostituted to serve tl»e base
ends of unscrupulous demagogues and
Government-hating rebels.
We supjtose there wijl be an c?td t*«

The Fate of Georgia.
Seymour received a little over one (
hundred thousand votes in the State, ,
while Gen. Grant receives considera ,
bly under sixty thousand. In the
Spring, under the Reconstruction acts,
there were registered nearly one hun
dred and ninety-five thousand, and ac
cording to Ben Bilk’s estimate twen
ty-nine 1 thousand were denied the
privilege of registration, making the
voting population of Georgia about
two hundred and fifteen thousand.—
There were less than one hundrixl aud
sixty thousand votes polled on the
third of November, which clearly
proves the allegation of intimidation
which we have repeatedly preferred
against the Democracy. Add the num
bers kept from the polls to those com
pelled to vote for Seymouk against
their will, and the majority for Grant
would have been decisive.
Speaker Colfax’s Successor. —
We see the name of Representative
Blaixe, of Maine, mentioned as the
probable successor of Speaker Colfax,
as the presiding officer of the House
of Representatives. Mr. Blaine is a
most excellent and accomplished mem
ber, and would preside with dignity;
but we take the liberty of recom
mending Hon. Hobace Maynard, of
Tennessee, as well worthy the high
position. He is able, experienced,
patriotic, and every way deserving.
No Sympathy.—There is no sym
pathy for the working man among
the candidates of the Democratic
party for Mayor and Aldermen. T.ct
the working men reflect on tlie misera
ble wages which some of the members
of the ticket pay their employees for
the most exhausting labor. Now, in
addition to the work they perform,
they demaud the votes of their em
ployees. Perhaps they will find that
if the latter are poor they will have
the independence to vote as they
please.
~i-- ■ -ft.
Preaching vs. Practice.—The
editor of the Griffin IRrald persists
in the advocacy of the foolish idea
that absolute non-intcrcoursc with the
North in business is the groat panacea
for the ills which some people imagine
the South is laboring under. Tlie
paper that contains this absurd argu
ment is printed on entirely new type.
Now, will the editor inform its readers,
and the public, where he obtained his
type ? Let. him answer this question.
“Forty Acres ano a. Mulr.’’—-The Au
gustu National Rebubllcan, organ of tlie
Radical party in Georgia, says that “the Re
publican party Iravc never promised Uie color
ed people forty acres and a mule.” What do
the negroes hereabouts say to this assertion ?
Wc wonder if any of them have those little
sucks on nana yet’’— (kHumbus Engyircr.
Does not the editor of the Enquirer
know tliat the Republican party of
Georgia has never promised the colored
population, or any jtortion of it, “forty
■eves and a mule ?” Come, tote fair.
-
Bi YiNtr Voters.—The Democrats
boast that they can purchase a suffi
cient number of colored voters to de
feat the Repul Jican ticket for Mayor
and Aldermen. Many of these voters
, have been so unfortunate as to have
, been bought and sold iu days past and
. gone. We rather guess they will
think twice before they consent to sei
themselves.
• • -
The Old Way of Ji dgino.—The
LaGrange Bepurter says the Republi
-1 cans are for sale The editor is only
, judging others by himself. Who be
lieves tliat he is sincere in his pre
tended earnest advocacy of a party
tliat ho has so often denounced when
it was a much better party than it is
to-day?
Anotheh Outrage.—The Grifiin
American Vuiou, of the 20th, says:
“Only yesterday Tillman Fkeeny
came, faint and bleeding, from Jones
county, to escape his murderous pur
suers.” Tlie Union gives the names
of the “ pursuers.”
Small Change First.—The La-
Grange Reporter offers to bet fifty
thousand ‘dollars that we lie. Hear
the fellow bray. Ten to one that he
has not enough to stand treats all
round. . _-j-
- • •
" Bon’t Want Your Votes.—The
LaGrange Reporter is terribly exer
cised lest the Georgia Electors should
cast their votes for Grant. Nobody
wants their votes, and if tliey did, the
Geoigia Electors have none to give.

The Municipal Election-
Mr. Editor—The municipal cam
paign has not yet fully begun. W®
have no formal announcement (except
on one side) of candidates for the
Mayoralty ftitd Aldennanic honors,
hut, notwithstanding this, a deep inter
est is felt by all classes of citizens in
the prospective result es the election.
Tho general determination is clearly
foreshadowed of electing to the Chief
Magistracy a gentleman who will
bring to the discharge of its various
and arduous duties first class adminis
trative ability and set purpose to ad
vance, all and singular, thetnterests of
ourOTOwing city.
The election of Mayor ami Alder
men is not to-day what it was years
ago. The interests of Augusta have
increased rapidly, and she must now
enter the race for the prize which
industry and thrift promise to a pro
gressive people. Her beautiful streets
will not compensate for tlie want of
manufacluring establishments; her
beautiful iron fronts will be of poor
consequence if her sister cities distance
her in railroad enterprises; her mer
chants will have to close their stores
if cormorants —men who live, and fat
ten, and grow rich on the earnings of
Avidows’ mites—are elevated to office.
Wc want no cormorants ; wc want
uo retrograding boobies ; we want no
narrow-minded sectarians; ave want
no men to whom office has no other
signification but the salary attached to
it, or to be made out of it; we want
no man in office who will, because of
color, or one’s being ill-favored by for
tune, disturb the well adjusted balance
of Justice; but we do want men, and
we will have men who will guard the
rich and poor alike—the white and
colored without distinction—men
whose management will increase the
beautiful attractions of our city, ex
tend her borders, increase and rein
vigorate her trade, induce capital
hither by establishing the city’s credit,
make healthy her finances, which,
under the Blatheristic advice of evil
minded men and officious busy-bodies,
arc, just at this time, sickly, because
taxes have not been paid.
We arc sure to have an energetic
Maj or and wide-awake Councilmen.
Citizens, mind uot the appeals and
threats of the partizan press of this
city. They told you that Grant was a
bad man, etc., etc., but after his elec
tion do you see how they are making
him out a Democrat, and all that’s
good? Well, he is good, and he in
tends, as alt good Republicans do, to
do the country good.
Watch the Democratic papers, and
determine not to believe their foul
misrepresentations. Be sure and vote
for Peace—that’s tho issue still, and
good, modern men; for modern men
are alive and up to honest snuff.

Letter from Dalton.
Dalton, Ga., Nov. 18, 1868.
Editor National Republican ;
Continued ill health, since my arri
val here, has alone prevented me from
writing you a friendly letter. To-day
the “Mountain City” was enlivened
by the visit of the Joint Committee of
the Legislature, accompanied by the
accomplished Superintendent of the
W. & A. R. R., Colonel E. Hulbert,
and the amiable host of the National
Hotel, in Atlanta, E. B. Pond, Esq.,
as caterer. Among the honorable gen
tlemen of the party, I noticed your
I distinguished fellow citizens, Senator
Conley and Hon. Ephraim Tweedy,
who appeal ed to be in excellent spirits.
All of die gentlemen seemed to be
well pleased with the manner in which
the Road is managed, and I have no
doubt that but both parties will end
their tour of inspection by an emphatic
endorsement of Colonel Hulbert.
Everything is quiet in Northern
Georgia since the 3d instant, the peo
ple being apparently satisfied with
the verdict in favor of General Grant.
I believe, from what I have seen of
the people in this section, that they
will cordially support General Grant,
unless Democratic orders and red hot
journals of the Constitution stripe,
continue in the future, as they have in
the past, to stir up sedition and advo
cate wholesale proscription and a reign
of terror, as a means of repressing Re
publican principles.
Nothin" can be expected from a
people who tolerate such infamous
sheets as the Warrenton Clipper and
Early County News. Murder is
openly advocated, and it is thought
by the barbarous editors that the
kdiing of a Radical or a “nigger” is
the beat sui tof a juke. How long,
oh, God, how long! “Truth Is
mighty and wiH prevail,” and the day
is not far distant when murderers and
outlaws will have meted out to them
retributive justice. Let the midnight
assassins beware I Tp oppress a peo
ple beyond all endurance will ulti
mately" provoke a madness such as
they have no conception of. Brave,
chivalrous Georgians ! so much civil
ized that you refuse a distinguished
citizen bread to satisfy his hunger,
and a place to lay Ins head! and
sirnjdy, too, because he does not
choose to place himself on the same
footing with the bloated traitor,
Toombs, whom every honest man in
Georgia despises.
Brethcren, the •lection of General
Grant has given us a new lease of
life. Let us stand -firmly by our
colors now, as we have in the past.
The cowardly erpw that hale suc
ceeded, by assassination and every
sort of outrage, in obtaining control
the Blate, while they have been con
stantly whining about oppression, do
not intend that those who differ with
them in opinion shall ever have peace.
Congress if about to assemble. Di
the Legislature he purged ofdhc thirty
or forty Democrats who arc not enti
tled to seats, and the colored men who
were legally .elected resume their
posts. wet both Houses, then, take
wise conn sei from «x]>erienoe, and
hasten to undo all the evil done by a I
dissolute, illegal majority. Let the
Courts of the State be organized as
intended by the Constitution. Con
gress will repeal the acts against the
organization of the militia. Four
thousand regular troops, in conjunc
tion with twenty or thirty thousand
militia, well officered and armed, with
martialdaw in any section that wonld
harbor a murderer, or resist the exe
cution of the law, would do the busi
ness. A military commission, organ
ized from the officers of the militia
under the rules of war, would make
signal examples of the Ku-Klux, and
forever put an end to their horrible
work. Congress must give us relief,
or we never can have peace, unless wo
sacrifice ottr principles. The orators
of the Republican party, headed by
our distinguished Vice President,hare
promised us peace, and we keep them
to their promise.
We watch the opening session of
December with the most intense in
terest.
A marked improvement has lieeii
noticed in the National Republi
can, aud I hope that its circulation
among Republicans in every part of
the State will be largely increased.
Your friend and well wisher,
Junius.
