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*« tlyasp diings souH-dfty. * J.,..-.,'‘ 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. President Grant's CaMnjit.—Pe troleum V.

All right. The editor saya. he will go the otbor way. Let hint go. . 1 (ifominuniratiflns. 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. November 19, 1000. S. W. 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. — Thanksgiving. Office Civil and Political i Bights Association, Macon, Ga., November 18,1868. } Whereas, The Convention of colored men recently held in this city authorized the President of the C. and P. 11. Association to set apart a day, and recommend our people to it. as a day of thanksgiving for past blessings and favors, and also to invoke the great Disposer of human destinies to provide some scheme, in His infinite wisdom, to save our people from the brutal murders and fiendish outrages tliat have hurried hundreds to unnatural and premature graves; Therefore, I most heartily recommend tliat we observe Thursday, the 26th of tills month—that being the day set apart for a similar object by the President of the United States, and by the Governor of this State. We have need to be grateful for many things, but for nothing more than the over throw of Democracy and all its retinue of evils and curses upon God, our country, and humanity. lam sorry that lam not able to recommend the same for protection of life and person, but for this we must especially invoke Divine aid. We should ask God to restore our State! order and rospcct for law and civil rule, to inspire the National Congress, both with a knowledge of our condition and a will to properly legislate for our protection and happiness, to purge the rulers of our State, and forever crush out the organized band of murderers, who have created a reign of ter ror in the land. Also, to provide a system for the general education of our people, so that the lowering clouds of ignorance caused by the servile condition of our people, should no longer be permitted to frown contempt upon a mighty race. For these and other necessary favors let our people meet in their respective places of worship, and implore the assistance of Al mighty God, before whose breath the nations of the earth are as but chaff. 11.
