FOR VICE-PRESIDENT : HON. LEVI P. MORTON,. Os New York. Petitions are being sent ta Wash '': ington asking the advancement on the calendar and the immediate . passage by the House of the Fre* d* man’s bill recently passed by the Senate. The average politician is the greatest fraud living. There love for the dear people—ab >ut elect ion time —is so very pathetic that it would bring tears to the eyes of a brass monkey. The colored laborers of Ogeechee have sent a < volunmioua petition to the U. 8. Senate protesting against the proposed reduction of duty on rice. They state in their petition * that they will be unable to make a living for themselves and familes if the duty on rice is cut. The names of Col. W. L. Scruggs and Hou. Jonathan Norcross is men ' tioned in connection with the gub ernatorial candidacy of the Repub • ’licans of this State. Judge J. S. Bigby is also mentioned as the probable candidate tor Attorney * General. The committee to whom ’ the selection is entrusted will meet on some date before the first ol # September. LET US HA VE PEACE. The Wrighffaction of the Repub lican party of the tenth Congress ional district Held a convention at Augusta ou Saturday last and no ni nated J. W. Lyons E-q. for Con gross and Prof. R R. Wright as Elector. The Chronicle of that city • prints the proceedings which is about two columns in length and beads it with the following faceti ous head lines: “A Chapter From the Lime Kiln Club-” The White faction held their meeting a few days before at Crawfordsville and also nominated a Congressman and Elector. We exceedingly regret to see this continued wrangling among our Augusta friends, and had hoped without interfering with the in ternal affairs of the tenth district— that at the ;last State convention Eeace was established among our rethren, but it seems not, and the cry still continues “lay on McDuff, damned be he, who first cries bold, enough.” THE COLORED VOTER. The Democratic wolf is piteously whimpering after the coloredjvote. Colored voters will have little diffi culty in recalling that it was not many years ugo when the Demo cratic party held the colored man as a slave and kept bis wife, or his sister, or his daughter, or all of them, puppets to a slave trader’s passions and greed, and would hold them in chains to-dav but for* the Republican party. Now that Re publican forceps have pulled the fangs of the Democratic beast, and its shears have clipped its claws, it is amusing to watch the animal’s eff »rt- to play patron to the colored voter. By the by, who made the colored man a voter, anyhow? And, by the by, who is it who bulldozes him and counts him out and makes the bal lot a farce where t.ie colored man is in the majority? Oh, no, beloved Democi at of the wolverine breed, the colored man is not a fool, and i he ha* a good memory for fangs •nd fetters.—N. Y. Press. CORRESPONDENCE. Bailey Mills. August 29, 1888. Editor Tribune: Dear Sir.—We me aw.re that (he R-publicans of the F ist Cony es>ion ■ 1 District pro po»e to assemble Hl a C >i Veiition on the 22nd day <>t August to nominate Elector and a Congressman to wliich we say God spejd. Let the good work'go on. Now as to the ."tate election, we earnestly appeal to the voters of every ward and district in Georgia to pay up their taxes, and register their names aud prepare for the conflict. We need some body or men in ti e Georgia Leg-i --lature that will legislate for the good of Georgia; nut men that robs the Negroes of their money given by Congress fur educational purpos es; men that says the penitentiary system is good enough for the class that is therein. This is what they call ’good enough when men are whipped to death, woik to death, starve to death, burn to death, shot to death and some times drowned; also the women are imide prosti- Utd* by the officials of the prisons, giving unlawful births to children that must ere long be let loose on society to practice teaching of that diabolical cave. Georgia has oeen outraged last summer by her Leg islature that, took away SBUt)U.OO from the Atlanta University with out authority. That same Legisla ture refused te establish a pri.-oii of reformation for convicts. Will the voters olGeoigia stand & allow such men to be elected? In .-pe .king of cruelty in the penitentiary, I have not ihe slightest allusion lo that punishment perscribed by law, but in the strongest teitns 1 condemn.' the unlawful punishment of a con victed i uiunn being. The 1 .si Leg islature has shown t> at barbaritle of the gravest kind is practiced in Georgia's prisons. We beiieve that ev< ry offender of the I w, should be punished to the iu I ex tent of the law, aud any punishment beyond that is a crime and needs correction. Elect humane men o the Legislature and the r* medy will be applied. I> the Negroes never voted before in G<oigia, let him come prepared and vote now, He is needed as the balance of power in ibis S ate. Y<«U van du a great deal politically. L-t no one s-«y it is tolly to vote. In this Stale there are sixty-three counties that b is a majority of Negro population. Ou oi the six y-tbree counties foriy five of them has paid a . aj.Tity ui poll taxes. The umber of iepre-e:i tatives from the forb five c.>uiitn to the Legislature are sixty. 1 » highest number ot com red iep e.-en tatives that eVer attended sii c -1874 were five that was iu the \c.i 1880 and!881. The next two wars three attended, the year IKB61 K B6 only two attend, elected from the coun ties of Camden and ALiubish. L-i the colored men of Georgia show that they are interested in the we 1 fare of the government, electing good jmen to office. Men of acii m come to the front with determined purpose. A. WILSON. Lumber City, Ga.. Aug. 17. ’BB Mr. Edit r: Dear Sii: —I dn hope you will excuse my coimpiciousness in writing to your paper so often. I now wish to ma-e mention of the proceedings of the colored ci' Zens of Telfair and Montgomery counties The citizens of Telfair save one of the dusky sons of flam’s decent must go to the Legislature. Mont, goinery says the same great word, and they must also have one ot Ham’s sons for sheriff ami tax col lector. The colored citizens of these two counties are hard at work and I honestly believe the result will be victory in the end. The masons connected wi'h the Baptist brethren are const meting a very tine church with a masonic hail over bead. The masons are getting there with both firms stretched, Hon, John Campbell connected himself with the masons on the last meeting, which was grand. The masons of Lumber city are g< t ing there with both eves open. I remain respectfully yours. E. T. Sheftall, Ware Co. Ga.
