A Large Audience Meets Him In the Unurt House.
He H(N|iieMt* the Reporter Who Came to Take
Down His Speech to Introduce Him- Uur-
mir Intel's Wit -Unusual Seenes—The Janitor's
Comment.
The court house was comfortably crowded last
night to hear Mr. James Y. Carmichael, of Cow
eta county, who is said to be running as au inde
pendent candidate for congress in this district.
Mr. Carmichael came in with the audience and
took his s at among them. lie is a plain, re-
spcctablclookingfarmcr of perhaps seventy years
of age, but still retains much of the vitality and
vivacity of youth. The crowd soon all came in
side, and the silence wns becoming oppressivi
but still no movement was made toward the
platform which the speaker was to occupy. It
transpired that Mr. Carmichael had forgotten to
nsk anybody to introduce him. On being
reminded that it wns time to be
gin his speech, Mr. Carmichael requested
the reporter of the Enquirer-Son who had come
to report his speech, to introduce him. The re
porter, who was impatient for the exercises to
open, readily consented. The reporter informed
the audience that he was a democrat “after the
straitest sect,” but that he understood that it
was Mr. Carmichael’s intention to have three
car loads of silver dollars appropriated for dis
tribution iu each congressional district, and that
if such was the case he was afraid that he would
have to support him in spite of his conscientious
scruples against independents. Here Mr. Car
michael interrupted the reporter by pulling a
crumpled circular from his pantaloons pocket,
and requesting him to read it to the audience,
as it stated his platform exactly.
The circular was rend but it contained the
identical statement about tho silver dollars
which tlie reporter had made, and declared in
addition that Mr. Carmichael was willing to pay
the freight on the silver to this particular dis
trict. At the conclusion of the reading of the
circular, Mr. Carmichael was presented to the
audience. He spoke for an hour, and his wit en
tertained the crowd with unilagging interest to
the test. A considerable portion of the speech
was taken clown verbatim, and is reproduced be
low. Mr. Carmichael said : “Fellow citizens: I
am an old man. bufcl ain the youngest candidate
in the United States. [Laughter.] I am only
three weeks old as a candidate, though [ nra part
my three score years and ten. It is the Saturday
evening of life with me now; and
I see much that needs doing whether it is ever
done or not. I want to try to right these things
in tho short time that is left to me. I am an old
man and recollect a long ways back. I remem
ber when I was a you/ig man that I tried living
a bacheloi’s life, and I was miserable. Icon-
eluded that ladies who were living a single life
must be as miserable as I was. T love to make
everybody happy. 8o that I thought I’d make
somebody hnppy. [Laughter.] Forty-nine years
ago I made a contract, with a lady to share my
house, and we have beeu tolerably happy ever
since. I advise all the bachelors present to do
as I have done. It’s good for you. I want to make
the whole human race happy. I want it remem
bered that I have nothing against my friend
Grimes. I am opposed to the government giving
certain privileges to certain people that it don’t
give to others. I have been raised in a family.
Iu the Bible I see that one brother killed an
other because God preferred his offering. I have
seen the same thing in Coweta county. 1 Laugh
ter ] Partiality in a family or anywhere else is a
bad thing. Old .Jacob, who had trouble with
Esau, still he gave Joe a little spotted coat.
[Laughter.] Thht was partiailty again. Fami
lies ought to live well together. All of you re
member that. But let us turn to politics now. I
have heard my grandmother tell with brinv tears
about the troubles of the revolutionary war.
My father came very near going into that war,
hut he didn’t go. [Laughter,| He was a little
sick aud couldn’t go. [Renewed laughter.] J
lmd a little brother born nbout that time and I
think that, had something to do with his getting
sick. | Laughter.] I am a died-in-the-wool dem
ocrat. I love the memory of Jefferson and old
Hickory Jackson and all those old fellows. I
believe in equal rights and the divine right of
habeas corpus. In old times men had their
rights under their owe vine and fig tree, and
there was none to molest or to make them
afraid. They could cat their potatoes and
bread; they could eat their buttermilk | In lighter]
and that was sixty years ago. llo v hard it would
bo for a man to step off on to any other platform
now. In them times we had state’s rights. The
union didn’t make the states. The stales made
the union. Yes, we had state rights and county
rights and militia district rights. And no state
dared to interfere with county rights or militia
district rights. No, they dareu’t do it. [Ap
plause.] Them rights were fought for. Oh! they
were fought nobly for. How many dear, noble
boys arc to-day lying in the cold clay contending
for them rights. That was a bad war. My fam
ily was in it. I was not in it. myself,
but I come mighty nigh it. [Laughter |
My son kept me from going. [Laughter.] 11c*
was born just after the first battle of Manassas.
[Laughter.] Ilis name is Joseph E. Bartow. I
had a son-in-law there, lie was shot through the
clotlica fourteen times. 1 didn’t fight; [laughter]
but I came as near doing my duty as any man
could, i took things to them that did fight.
I Laughter.] Them was the happiest days of my
life when l was taking boxes and trunks loaded
with good things to the boys in Virginia. I used
to get on one of the boxes and make speeches to
tho boys and make ’em cry and make ’em
happy. But what has that got to do with the
subject? | Loud laughter.] I am in favor of con
stitutional government. But talkin’ about the
war, there was a boy .born at my house every
year during the war. [Laughter.] 1 was try in’
to whip the yanlcees that way. [Laughter.] 1
was in Virginia awhile and in Georgia awli n e. I
kept going backwards and forwards, and them
boys kept being born. I Laughter.] I was
always around when it happened—seem like 1
couldn’t help it. [Laughter.] I came very
near being sent to the lunatic asylum
ouco. [Loud laughter and applause.J My father-
in-law, who was in his dotage, gim my wife a
uigger woman that was so mean uobody couldn’t
mange her. Well, 1 sold her aud some other
niggers to get money to help along my hoys in
the war. Well, there was an old preacher in our
neighborhood. He had sons in the war. But
he got to clinging to his nigger property and
loving ’em. He said I was crazy for selling my
niggers. He got up a petition for everybody to
sign that 1 was crazy und was selling all
my niggers. Well, they couldn’t got me in the
asylum unless my wife signed it, and
she would’t. She said she thought more
of me than all the niggers in the southern con
federacy. She said I said if our boys got whipped
the niggers wouldn’t be worth ten cents a
thousand. Gentlemen, you know you may love
anybody till you think you can’t love 'em any
more. But they’ll do something that will make
you love ’em more still. Well, that’s the way I
am by my wife for keeping me out of the asylum.
[Laughter]. I love her more aud more for it yet,
and old as I nra I can’t hardly stay
away from her now. [Laughter.] But that’s not
on the subject in hand, (Laughter.I Talk about
politics. The beardless boys now say you ain’t a
dimocrat if you don’t vote fertile diinocrat nom
inee. 1 asked some of them what is a dimocrat. - {
They said the democracy is the white man’s gov
ernment. That’s what I call a one-plank plat
form. The bondholders are the only very white
men. They are white as they can bo. Is the
democracy a bondholder’s government. I ain’t
down on the bondholder. J want to protect him.
I want to protect them from dynamite and
every other niite that might bite. [Laughter.]
This government can’t stand five years longer
unless there’s a change. Mark it; oh, mark it,
you men of the white one plank platform! It
there ain’t a change this country won’t stand
five years longer. For the Scripture says: “A
house divided against itself cannot stand.” The
dynamiters arc in session to-night, getting ready
to throw dynamite or any other kind
of inite. I tell you capital and
labor is the Siamese twins who, if you cut the
ligament, you kill both, who were cheek by jowl.
Let the bondholders invest their money in en
terprise, and we’ll get some of it. The bond
holders ought to be made to pay the taxes of
the government for the next quarter of a century,
as they have been without taxation for a quarter
of a century. I tell you my forefathers fought
for these principles. Several of them fell and one
who was fighting iugtms got scalped. [Laughter.]
Poor old fellow, he wSb a sight. [Laughter.] 1
never want to see another such a sight. (Laugh
ter.]
Now about the Mormon question. I’ll tell you
how to fix that. You know there’s something
about a man, and a woman, too, that you can t
explain. [Laughter.] .A man wants one woman
for a wife and a woman wants one man for a
husband. But people who c.in’t get a whole
loaf are willing to take a half. [Laughter.] In
old times men were allowed to have more than
one wife because tho men killed up their fool
selves fighting, and there weren’t men enough
to go ’round. Wlmt I want to do
is to distribute the surplus silver dollars
in the United State) treasury so as to give men
enough and keep ’em., from fighting and killing
each other, anrl then every woman can have her
man. [Applause.] But when men are scarce we
have to huve Mormoniffm to equalize things. If
there is ever another \var in the United States I
think we’ll have to have Mormonism in every
state in ttye union. [Loud and prolonged ap
plause.] Yes, let’s, distribute that surplus
in the treasury. We need $5(0,000 of it
in Coweta county . to fix up our lands
with. [Laughter.] W<? can’t afford to feed
our hands that we hire there, but about seven
months in the year. [Laughter.] The rest of the
time they have.to root hog or die—which is to
say, steal. | Laughter] Let the surplus in the
treasury bo distributed aud invested, ft will give
the people work, aiul t.he more they work the
more children they’ll have [loud laughter] and
the country will become populous and prosper
ous. 1 am growing hoarse, so I’ll say I have put
myself before the people, and my feelings
won’t be hurt 'whether you vote
for me or nctij The other night
my opponent and friofrt-Grimes said he indorsed
my platform. There was a crowd, of my friends
and his there, and tlitf friends of both of us told
me that, as Grimes had indorsed my platform
and there was no issue Between us, that they had
decided that 1 had better go home and stay there
[laughter], as Mr. Griiues was the regular nomi
nee and had been brought out first. [Laughter. I
But I told ’em no; that l was going around and
cast my bread on the waters. [Laughter.]
Jefferson said every man was en
titled to life, [liberty and the
persuit of happiness. Borne, if a Roman was
poor he had to be respected. That’s the kind of
u republican platform I stand on. I believe iu
givin* no striped jackets to favorite Josephs.
[Laughter.] I’ll now JBool*, and if any many
representing the one-plank white platform wants
to reply I’ll rest till he gels through.”
(Here Mr. Carmichael sat down, and the
silence became so awkward, and dense and
thick, that you could cut ir, with a
knife like cheese. No representative of the
white one plank platform was present. Or
if he was lie was afraid to show his head.
•Seeing that no oue dared to reply, Mr. Car
michael arose and continued:]
“I’ll never see you all again [laughter], though
I’ll be back through here in a day or two.
[Laughter.| I want you all to pray for this
country. ] Here every man in the crowd seemed
to think he was in imminent danger of being
culled on to pray in public; suid there was a gen
eral stampede for the door. The speaker gazed
at his vani h ng audience in mingled amaze
ment and disgurt v 'jj and au the last
platoon of stampeders were crowding and
wedging through the *loqr he exclaimed:] “1
say good night.” This 1 ended tho performance;
and a moment later the reporter and a friend
who was waiting for him, and the colored court
house janitor were left alone in the room. The
reporter told the janitor to keep the lights burn
ing live minutes until fie could finish his notes.
The negro janitor said he would, and came over
to the tublo where the reporter was writing.
Looking the reporter straight in the eye, the
janitor said:
“Boss, is dat man rumriu’?”
“Yes.”
The janitor’s porcelain eyes rolled heavenward;
his ivories were unveiled like a row of tomb
stones, and he said with slow aud solemn em
phasis, 4 *gra! ega n d lem Ity! ”

It will be remembered by the readers of the
Enquirer-Sun that about three weeks ago the
gin house of Mr. William Byrd, a faimerofLee
county, Ala., was burned. It was thought at the
time that it was the work of an incendiary, but
not until Tuesday and Wednesday of this week
were the guilty parties apprehended. Bill Grant,
a negro, was caught on Tuesday, and on Wed
nesday morning Jesse Bryant and “Cindy” Hol-
laman, a negro man and woman, were captured.
Mr. William Jones, the live, energetic and effi
cient constable of beat 10, was the officer who
captured all three of these black-skinned and
blacker-hearted criminals. They confess to the
crime, and give as their reason that they wanted
money and stole about a bade of cotton from the
house before setting fire to it. They had a pre
liminary trial before Judge McElvy, in Browne
ville, yesterday and were committed to jail at
Opeljka.
