^ILLEDGEVILLE:
TUESDAY, JULY i, 1371.
The fact that the friends of Greelj
are potting him forward as a candidate
for the Presidency, though not a public
ly avowed measure, is nevertheless fce»
coming daily more apparent. The grow
ing unpopularity of Grant, will necessi
tate the nomination of some man upon
wl jom the Radical paity can concentrate':
as many of his former strenuous sup
porters have become so thoroughly dis
gusted with the President’s inordinate
selfishness and littleness of soul, that
they will vote with the Democratic part}
rather than be tLe instruments of elect
ing such an imbecile. Other names are
spoken of in connection with the nomin-
] of Radicalism. All admirers of Jsffer-
son Davis—all who still cherish in their
hearts the memory of oar beloved coun
try, and guard as a priceless heritage
the glory with which our heroes were
covered, must feel deep regret that the
chieftain has not maintained a digni
fied silence since his overthrow. Many
hard thing have been said of him, and
many foul aspersions cast upon bis
honor and integrity, which could never
have been the case, had he given his
enemies no opportunity to traduce him.
We fear that this will be the fate of Mr.
Stephens, as he can scarcely, with the
utmost circumspection, escape the utter
ance of some sentiment that will be
construed into rebellion, sedition, Ac.,
by those whose business it is to misrep
resent everything Southern. Thus far
he has occupied too Ligh a stand-point
to be reached by the arrows of the ene
my, but, so soon as he descends, and
takes part in the affairs of government,
a pretext will be furnished for an at
tack upon him. It would have been a
much more fitting end to the glorious
lives of these two great Southrons, bad
they been content to rest upon the
laurels already gained, and not seek
new dangers upon the arena ef politi
cal strife. The great task which they
undertook to accomplish, the liberation
of their country, has not been successful;
their work is done; and it is left to the
future to decide whether the principles
for which they fought will ultimately
triumph. They can for the remainder

Greely 6eem at present to be the most j 0 f t heir career more successfully senre

The Trenton (N. J.) American gives
the names and weight of twenty-four
Jersey men summoned for service on the
grand jury. The tallest man measures
six feet eight inches and weigh- 2S0
pounds. The two heaviest weigh S25
pounds (one 400 and the other 425 lbs.)
The aggregate weight of the twenty-four
men is 6.491 pounds, or an average of
about 270 pounds to each man.
An ingenious German has gained a
great reputation in New York by bis
success in training coach horses to a
grand gait. He used no burr-bit or other
cruel contrivance, and people couldn’t
gee bow he did it, until it was found that
he put magnifying goggles upon his hor
ses, which made cobble stones look like
bowlders, and they acquired a grand
tread by trying to step over them.
The whole number of persons carried
by horse cars and stages daily in New
York is 382,500 ; in Brooklyn, 124,500;
total, 507,000. Amount collected in the
two cities, $31,979. The whole popula
tion of New York rides once in two and
a half days, and of Brooklyn in three and
one-6ixth days. The Third Avenue
railroad alone carried seventy thousand
passengers per day last year, or the whole
population of New York in three and 8
half days.

A Hatter that Needs Explanation.
To (he Editor of The Sun : Desiring
information upon a matter of some pub
lic importance to Georgians, I beg a
small amount of space in your popular
journal, and I’ll be brief :
In every issue of a paper printed in
this city, called the True Georgian, the
following glaring paragraph meets the
reader’s eye:
OUB MOTTO—VICTORY.
against each other. As far as ability is
concerned, Greely is undoubtedly the
superior; but it is a matter for serious
consideration whether, the condition cf
affairs will Le ameliorated by the snb-
sti tutioa of Belial for Mammon. Grte-
ly is a deep-designing, wire-working
politician, with no more conscience than
Satan himself; and he will say, act, be,
anything that in his opinion, the emer
gency demands. No reliance can be
placed in him, in cases where questions
of vital national importance are upon the
tapis. Grant is a mere pujpet in the
hacdB of skillful manipulators behind
the scenes, and is incapable of design
ing the mischief that the former would
concoct, ia conjunction with a corrupt
cabinet. Of the two, we prefer Grant,
if wc must have either, as his capacity
for doing evil is not as great as that of
his more designing rival. Under a show
of great generosity, public spirit and patri
otk-m, Greely is attempting to win favor
with the Radical party, although he pre
tends that sneh is not his intention.
The only hope of the Democracy is that
the Radical party will divide oa tliAse
two men, and thus leave the field open
to those who desire peace and order un
der a good government.
The Daily True Georgian will fght
their country by preserving profound it out on the Acccpt-the-Situation Plat
silence, than by any fresh attempt to
bring order out of the chaotic mass of
the present government of the United
States.
Agricultural College Lands-
A mistake lately published in the
Fa rm Home needs correction. Mr.
G. W. Iliuklo, Assistant, Sec’y., Ga.,
Ag ricultural Society, there states that
Gov. Bullock is daily expecting to get
the Georgia Land Scrip. If Gov. Bul
lock thought so, he was greatly mista
ken. He has no right to get it, at present.
It cannot be obtained at all, until the
State establishes an Agricultural Cok
leg -;—cue at least, and has it “at work”
with a corps of teachers, and after that,
reports the fact to Congress. The said
scrip cannot Le is=6ued at all, except on
this condition, and will be lost forever
unless the Legislature at its very next
sesfion attends to the business; for the
right of Georgia to get a share of the
public lands will expire by terms of
the last act of Congress on the first day
of July 1872. BALDWIN.
Mew Method cf Aerial Navigation.
It is said that when Shropshire of the
Telegraph, first heard that his mortal en
emy, John Black, of the Eufaula News,
bad been put in jail, bis soul was so
overwhelmed with a torrent of celestial
rapture that he imagined himself a little
angel, procured two bundles of fodder,
tied one to each arm, mounted a wood
shed, and attempted to soar away to the
region where the wicked cease from
troubling. It is not positively known
that bis wings boro him in the direction
indicated by the point of hi? nasal orna
ment: the inference is that such is not
the case ; since in answer to some eaves
dropping witness of the scene who ex
claimed, “Why, hello, Shropshire!” the
venerable aeronaut, brushing the dust
from Lis back, waspishly replied, ‘‘It’s
a lie, Ididn’t get the right flop !”
A Georgia Heroine.—The Louisville
“Courier-Journal” in noticing the arrk
val of Georgia’s gallant son, Gen Gor
don, and his wife, in that city, says :
“General Gordon rose rapidly and
high in Confederate confidence, but bis
wife is as remarkable in military annals
as many a heroine of olden story. She,
with her two boys, in a barouche, fol
lowed the army of her husband, and
she was never a hindrance cr an embar
rassment to bi3 movements. At Win*
Chester, in the Valley of Virginia, when,
for the first time, his troops fell back be
fore vastly superior numbers, she, who
was supposed by her Lusbaud to be many
miles iu the rear, happened to bo in the
town and saw the critical condition oi
the Confederate cause. She des-ended
from her carriage, and amidst the rush
of retreating men, the bursting of shells
and the whiz of bullets, seized bold of
the very person of soldiers and turned
them back to the fight, Her resolution,
coolness and heroic spirit rallied hun
dreds and returned them to her husband
in the front. The iucident was kuowu
all over Virginia at the time and in the
army.”
The Atlanta Constitution, in response
to a request from the Savannah News,
gives some statistics of Bullock’s exer
cise of the pardoning power. It says:
The Governor has acted on 426 appli
cations for pardon since August 29,1868.
Of these, 321 cases, involving 346 offend
ers were pardoned ; 72 applications were
refused aud 33 puuisRments commuted.
At this time 1C8 applications for pardons
are before the Governor. The follow
ing is the classification : Murder, par
doned, 48 ; murder, commuted, 18; sim
ple larccDy, pardoned, 76 ; other larce
ny, 14; assault to murder, 20; burglary
in the night, IS; burglary in the day,
15; manslaughter: 15; assault, 20; as
sault to rape, 5 ; homicide, 1 ; cheating
and swindling, 3 ; stabbing, 3 ; horse
stealing, 7 , bigamy, G ; forgery, 4 ; per
jury, 3; robbery, 8 ; fornication and a-
dultery, 7 ; seduction, 1 ; incestuous a-
duhery, 1 ; arson, 5 ; misdemeanor, 9 ;
bastardy, 1 ; rape, 1 ; compounding fel
ony, 1. The other cases making the
34G are minor offences.
EON. A, S. STEPHENS.
This distinguished Georgian, who af
ter the fall of the Confederacy retired
from the stage of active political life,
and engaged in the work of writing a
history of the struggle, has again made
his appearance before the public iu the
capacity of Editor in-ebief of the At
lanta Sun, V bile this move will be a
most fortunate one for the Sun, we doubt
seriously whether Mr. Stephens will be
equally benefited. After the unfortu
nate results consequent upon Mr. Davis’
reappearance in only a brief speech, on
account of the malice of political ene
mies, it is rather surprising that Mr. S.
should have followed his example, and
grasped the weapons of editorial war-
fare for a fresh conflict with the minion*
What an intense delight it must have
been to the Jupiter Tonans of Georgia,
to thunder his mind out while bedeviling
the Tribune correspondent, who lately
interviewed him! What mingled emo
tions of rapture and affright mnst have
played at roly-boly in that correspond
ent’s breast during the interview—rap
ture at getting such rich material for a
letter, aud affright at the portentous pol
ysyllables of the big Georgian ! The
interview as printed is a treat; bat to
have seen Toombs, and to have heard
him as he towered above tbe Tribune
man and avalanched himself upon him,
that must have been a feast indeed. We
commend the scene to some of those
gents who make pictures for the comic
newspapers.
Gen. Toombs’ tirade will be nuts for
the Radical journals, large aud small.
They will make tbe most of it, torn it,
twist it, torture it, garble it, and lie a-
bout it from this moment until the elec
tion is over. Let them do bo. If no
material is furnished them they will be
sure to manufacture it for themselves,
aud it is hardly worth while to say that
home-made Southern goods are, in all
respects, preferable to Northern shoddy,
and bogus shoddy at that.
A number of timid papers in General
Toombs’ own section will get white-
lipped and throw up trembling hands o-
ver this conversation. “It will damage
the prospects of our party, be a handle to
the Republicans, play hob with us all,”
and so on. Pooh! We give the North
ern people credit for some sense—not
mote than tbe law allows—but some.
Asses they must be not to see that the
General wag “selling” the Yankee scrib
bler. Nothing is plainer than that. A
blind man might smell the fact.
Let tbe Radicals do their utmost; they
cannot defeat the Democracy if tbe latter
displays only a little common sense. It
would be no bad idea if every Southern
man, when interviewed, would blow just
•uoh a blast as Toombs has done. The
thing would be reduced to an absurdity
then, and the interviewers would get
mighty sick at the stomach.

The editor of that paper is also bla-
taut about bis Democracy, and tries to The MOORE COTTON GIN.
make superficial readers believe that be j
is a very chevalier Bayard in the cause—
tans puer et sans reprocke—and that to
the especial keeping of him and his so
called “True Georgian,” has been con
fided all that the Democratic party of
Georgia bold sacred now, or hope for in
tbe future!
Now, some of us in Georgia who did
not act with the Radical party in its
palmy days, as well as some of us who
did not nominate Grant for President, or
play the extreme partisan in aid of Bul
lock’s election, do not altogether appre
ciate this new fledged Democracy which
has just sprung up in our bailiwick ; and
it is upon this point I seek information.
If I am correctly informed, this great
Ajax of the “True Georgian,” but recent
ly coming here from the far-off Territory
of Idaho, was formerly the editor of tbe
New Era newspaper, and as such aided
as largely as any other man (Hulburt
and Varney Gaskill excepted) in de
claring our present Chief Magistrate to
be elected ; was in full fellowship with
the Radical party in all its actings and
doiDgs in unlawfully amending the Na
tional Constitution, and placing tbe
whole civil establishment of Georgia un
der tbe control of ignorant negroes, car
pet-baggers and corrupt political adven
turers, who have bankrupted the Treas
ury, made a mockery of the Judiciary,
demoralized labor, aud damaged our ev
ery material interest.
From a National stand point, it may be
said, that the mighty man of the “True
Georgian” (so-called) was in zealous co
operation with a party whose record is
even more injurious and damaging to
the whole people. Suffice it, that none
of the old landmarks have escaped its
sacreligious touch ; and the end is not
yet. A centralized despotism is what it
further seeks!
This is the situation briefly summed
up ; this is what Radicalism has accom
plisbed, and what the editor of the “True
Georgian” helped to accomplish. There
has been no concession by that party, it
adheres to its past record—proposes to
undo nothing—but continues to press
foiward on its mission of ruin.
And now, claiming to wear the habili
ments of Democracy, and before an in
telligent community, with unblushing
effrontery, the editor of the “True (so-
called) Georgian” absolutely reiterates
and endorses, in effect, all that bo has
said in tbe past, and not only proposes
himself to stick to all the devilment he
has done as a partisan in the Radical
ranks, but is counselling Democrats to
do the same.
If his “accept thc-3ituation” platform
and the “new departure” do not mean
just that, then I desire to be enlighten
ed. We all understand the “situation”—
there is but one. It has hung over us
like a blighting shadow for more than
five years. It costs a Radical nothing
to “accept the situation,” therefore he
does so at small expense; but I protest
that it is a sacrifice of principle which
no Democrat can afford to make.
And one other point: In glittering
capitals, at the head of the same column
in which we find the “acccpt-the-situa-
tion” creed of the “True Georgian” ap
pears the name of a gallant gentleman
in nomination for Governor iu 1872. I
am bis friend. J sought to have him el
evated to that high position, whilst the
editor of the “True Georgian” was at
tempting to drag him dowu, and befoul
ing his fair fame with allusions of disloy
alty. I failed, while the editor of the
“True Georgian” and his party, through
their “sharp and quick” tactics, suc
ceeded, but the means resorted to, to se
cure their success was believed to have
been unusual; and very many good peo
ple tbink it not altogether certain that
in these days of sharp and quick Radical
practice that the man who gets the most
votes will every time be declared elected.
What right the * True Georgian” has
to associate the name of the gallant Gor
don with such a creed, and place him
upon such a platform for the suffrages of
true Georgians in 1S72, I do not know.
He has not told the thousands of his
friends in this State that be “accepts the
situation,” as the editor of tbe “True
Georgian” has, or is a convert of the
“new departure;” nor has any friend
said it for him! For one, I shall believe
that Gen. Gordon’s name stands in an
unauthorized attitude in the columns of
the “True Georgian” until otherwise in
formed ; and for his sake let me hope
that it will prove so, if in 1872 he hopes
to get the vote of A Democrat,
ESTABLISHED 1852.
FORMERLY AT DOUBLE WELLS-
-:o:-
AIjSO A GENUINE PATTERN OF
The Griswold Gin.
T HE UNDESIGNED, having resumed the manutactnre cf the above Gin propose to make
it what it was before the war—“The favorite of the South.” Our work stands upon its
merits, and we think this sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the
best mechanical talent in the Northern shops, iu addition to some of the best workmen from
the hop of the late Samuel Griswold.
In calling the attention of planters to onr Cotton Gins, we desire that they should notice
the improvements that we offer which are substantial as follows:
A PORTABLE ROLL BOX
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate is used, the object of which is to
improve in the quantity ginned, or lessen the quantity and improve the quality of lint. Also
to gin damp or wet cotton; to alter the picking or separating the lint from the seed—either
to take more lint off, or less lint from the seed, as circumstances require. We use both the
common Roll Box and a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let ont all the seeds and
hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
We make, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all drawn by a cord
and the timber is all selected from the best lumber, well seasoned; and every brush is made
perfect fire and rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES
Are both oscilliating and plain. Can furnish either, as may be ordered. We line them with
the best babbit metal.
GIN SAWS.
We make all the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, and of any size that
may be desired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture our saws, one of the best saw
makers iu the South; aud our machinery for the manufacture of Gin-Saws cannot be excelled
COTTON-SEED CRUSHING MILL,
We are ahe only successful manufacturers of this important and useful inventicn, the Cot
ton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necessary hereto
allude to the immense saving and economical use of the crushed cottonseed, as a ma
nure. We received a gold medal as a premium, from the Fair of the Cotton Planter’s
Convention, held in Macon, Ga., 1360 for the best Cotton Seed Crushers attached to the Gin
Stand, to crush the seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the many
certificates that we have on the subject.
TRIAL OF GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves the shop,
old or new ones.
REPAIRING OLD GINS.
We have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in the country, and
make repairing of old Gius a speciality. Planters will do well to send in their old Gins, and
have them made as good as new, at a much less cost than a new Gin can be bought for.
Send on your orders and old Gins early.
We are also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders for Findlay & Craig’s
Screw Cotton Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse Power, and Casting generally.
For further particulars send for Circulars and Price List.

The Great Eclipse Screw Cotton Press!
- , ~rSO(\ I'.et
Patented February 27th. 1-71. by FINDLAY <5c CRAIG. An ANTI FRICTION SCREW—
A MECHANICAL WONDER. This wond-rful mechanical ach: vement in point of RA
PIDITY and LIGHTNESS of DRAUGHT. STANDS WITHOUT A RIVAL, and is des
tined at an early cay to supercede .ALL OTHER Cotton Screws, be they fabricated of Wrough:
or Cast Iron.
Since last fall, and before accepting Patent, we added improvements and labor-saving con
veniences, rendering it PERFECT in every particular. The screw, or pin, has a pitch, cr
fall, of C] inches ; that is, at every turn of the screw, follower block descends (or ascends, as
the case may be) 6] inches. The device of the tube or nnt in which the screw work*.,
is such as to materially reduce the friction, so great in the common screw; thereby ren
dering it an easy task for three hands to pack a bale of cotton in HALF THE TIME
of ANY’ OTHER Iron Screw Press by horse power. When desirable, an ordinary
mule can be substituted for three men without change of fixtures. (Screw Presses also
arranged for water and steam power.) We claim for the “ECLIPSE'’ SIMPLICITY,
STRENGTH, DURABILITY, RAPIDITY. LIGHT DRAUGHT, and STANDING ROOM
at top of box, etc., etc.; tcc pronounce it the BEST Screw Press IN THE WORLD, ami res
pectfully invite a public test with any and all other Screw Presses- To purchasers, we GUAR •
ANTEE SATISFACTION or REFUND PRICE MONEY. Orders daily received from dif
ferent States attest its popularity even in infancy. To parties who may not desire such ra
pidity in packing, we can supply them with the COMMON WROUGHT IRON SCREW ef
fine (slow) pitch, and warrant them equal to any other Wrought Screw manufactured. But
above all others, we recommend tbe strong, rapid, light draught “ECLIPSE.”

FOR DRIVING COTTON GINS-
For Ginning Cotton, CRAIG’S IIORSE POWER is as far in advance of the ordinary Gin
Gear as the ordinary Gin Gear is in advance of ALL THE OTHER IIORSE POWER now ad
vertised and manufactured in the State,
We are WILLING and ANXIOUS to PROVE this, if allowed an opportunity of a PUBLIC
TEST.
The above Horse Power lias proven, by actual test, to be the most simple, durable, econom
ical and of ligh est draught, of any Horse Power yet introduced to the public. REQUIRES
NO MECHANIC TO ADJUST IT. Any farmer can put in position and operation iu several
hours, as it sits upon the ground. The Gin may be located at either end of the Gin house,or
directly over the machine, as preferred.
WE GUARANTEE WORKMANSHIP, MATERIAL AND PERFORMANCE
And further, we will legally obligate ourselves to REFUND PRICE MONEY’ where ma
chine fails to perform satisfactorily.
We challenge any and all Inventors and Makers of Horso Powers, to meet ns in an actual
test, and produce the equal ot this Machine for driving a Cotton GiD.
We manufactnre two sizes—No. 1 for driving50 and 60 Saw- Gin ; No. 2 for 40 and 45 Saw
Gin. This Power will speed a Gin, having an 8 inch pulley, (standard size) THREE HUN
