DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1874. TOOMBS AT ATLANTA. A RINGING SPEECH. The Herald’s Report] Yesterday evening a Urge and enthusi astic crowd collected on the Parade Grounds to hear a speech from Hon. ltobt. Toombs. It beiug understood that he would not speak except by special re quest, citizens were appointed to visit him at the Kimball House, and in vite him to come out. TOOMBS SPEECH. Friends and Fellow Citizens:—I have just received your invitation, and thunk you for the compliment. I am always ready to accept any invitation from the people of Georgia. I saw something in the papers of the New Orleans troubles, and for my part I would raise my voice aud bid them God speed. He then went on to give a brief account of the causes of the troubles, and said that the last hair which broke the camel’s back was the seizure of private arms by the gov ernment. He thought that law and order were good things, but when they were dead, we must make manhood take its place. The people, he said, wanted him to make a speech which would he a greeting to the citizens of Louisiana, and he would sny that he would help to s op any troops that might pass through Atlanta. I am an outlaw, they say, and I would not beg for pardons. I have done all I could to uphold right, and only wish that my re cord with God was as good as it is with my country. The people have submitted too much, for every concession to tyranny is a new privilege, and they ought to have resisted all conservative movements. The word conservative moans a thief. Brutus says ho was no conservative, liut ho did not want to be considered as favoring war. He felt the same now as ho did when he represented the State in Congress. He then made some cutting remarks Against the newspapers, saying that he did not like them, but wanted to keep on the good side of them. He thou s,x>ko at longth on the bond question, and the im port ince of a good State and municipal government. He indulged in some south ing personalities. As regards the Civil Bights question, ho said that it was the most ridipulous thing he had ever heard. The negro would never get any rights except what was given him by the Southern white men. He said that the candidates did uot seem to remember that the Civil Bights hill would pass Congress before any of them got there—for they all proposed to go against it. He touched largely on tho Convention theory, aud thinks that it is the only salvation of the people. The peo ple, he said, were afraid to meet the issue, tbiuking they would looso the Capital. He favora compelling the railroads to study the interest of the peop’e, but wantstbem to have justice also. He whs severe on the Legislators who had been in offl e siuce the Bullock administration, but says he RUppos s they will say he was drunk when tlioy hoar of this speaking. Hillyer, he said, he considered an honest man hut did not approve of his bill. He then con cluded with some severe criticisms on certaiu candidates for the Legislature. He predicted that many of them when they got into offloe would go back on their pledges. Mr. Hillyer made an excellent speech, which was received with great applause, and vindicated him of many ctoarges which have been asserted against him. Wo rogret that our space will not allow us to give it to the public to-day. Judge Cowart was called on, but de ft clined. | Mr. Hoge was then called on, and said that he would rather hear Toombs, drunk or sober (laughter), aud his only object was to expreBH his sympathy for the peo- . pie of Louisiana, to whom he would seud three loud long cheers. * Loud calls for Waddell, Abrams and Bard, after which the following resolu tions were offered by Mr. Abrams : Resolved, That the people of Atlanta, while profoundly regretting the necessity which has forced the people of Louisiana to rise in revolution against the infamous usurpations and robberies of Kellogg, feel tho utmost sympathy with their struggling brothers of L misiana, and extend to them tho assurance that they have our heartiest wishes for their complete succors. Resolved, That the people of Atlanta, firmly believiug that the cause of Ameri can lihorty and of republican institutions is that of i he patriots of Louisiana, here by most energetically protest agaiust any interference by the FoJtr.il Goveruiueut with the people of Louisiana. Resolved, That any attempt to coerce the white people of Louisiana into a re- turn to the infamous rule of Kellogg, and into submission to tho government of an usurper, must be regarded by Georgians as a declaration of war against the eutire white race of the South, aud should be re sisted by every menus in our power. Resolved, That Atlanta sends greeting to Louisiana, and bids her stand firm in her efforts to reassert the supremacy of the white race, and in her heroic struggle to regain her rights and liberties. First Settlers of Upson County.— The first settlers of this county were Messrs. Shady Stillwell, William Jimerson, William Sockwell and Zach Boothe, who moved here iu 1821. The latter two moved off with the In dians to Arkansas after the treaty of the "United States with the Indians, about 1824. Mr. Stillwell has a son living in this county at present, Mr. John Stillwell, who is now eighty years old, enjoys splendid health, aud is a Christian gentleman. Mr. Jimerson died just before the war broke out, at tho age of 8(>, and his wife followed in May of last year, at about the same age. Ho has a son, Mr. John Jim- erson, living hero now, who is 64 years old, is a healthy, active man,, having nev er taken a dose of medicine in his life, and hasn't a gray hair in his head. Being 11 years old when he moved here with his father’s family from Kentucky, he re members well when Upson was a dense forest, with abundance of wolves, deor, turkeys and other wild beasts roaming tbo woods. He says tho lands when he first same here was the richest he ever saw.— ■ Thomaston Herald. In Bad Luck —The Houston Home journal says "a letter from Matt Keen, I colored, to a gentleman in this place, says the emigrant agents told lies to get the negroes to go to Arkansas, and take them about and hire them to the highest bidders like they used to do the ‘niggers’ in slave- 2 times. There is much sutfering yet iu e overflowed district. Bill Duncan has been driven off by his employer, Dr. Pe ters. George Ormond is working out by the day, and bis wife, Abram Thompson’s widow, is cooking for Dr. Peters. This is bad on an ex-member of the Georgia Leg islature and a prominent politician.
