"IET US HAVE PEACE. ’ Nothing is more desirable to a civilized com munity than the enjoyment of penco with the protection of individual rights, civil and reli gious. If this were the meaning of the aspi ration of the Radical candidate in his acceptance of the nominatiou for the Presidency, it would be approved by the people. But the peace proposed by that party is not the quietness of constitutional liberty secured by just laws.— acknowledge no rcstiictions to their ma licious action. The pcaco they offer to the people is the same that the wolf gives to the lamb—the peace of death. Their economical administration of the gov ernment has cost the people in the three years of profound peace since the close of the war, $1,G00,000,000, while the total expenses of the government for the seventy three years from its formation, to their accession to power was $1,400,000,000. So that Radical economy means wasting in three years $200,000,000 more than the entire expenses of the govern ment rightly administered for seventy-three years. The assassin whispers “ peace /” ns he creeps to your bedside at midnight, and Gen. Grant says “peace!” while his party arc mur dering American liberty in the form of law. They would have the people be quiet while all the rights of freemen are wrested from them by an unlawful band of conspirators, who claim to be the Congress, while they do not represent the people, and arrogate the power to overrule the Executive and Judicial branches of the government. This is the peace of des potism. They call for peace, while by their laws it is a felony in the State of Arkansas to preach the gospel of the Son of God. It is ordered by their laws that our noblo old State shall never be allowed, even by a convention ot her people, to pay the widows and orphans in her midst the money shq has borrowed from them. How these canting hypocrites yearn for peace while they require the people to declare that every man whom they have heretofore delight ed to honor, shall hereafter he forever disqual ified from holding any office in their gift. llow ardently does Grant himself desire peace, while he falsifies his word confirmed by his honor as a soldier, pledged when Gen. Lee surrendered that stainless sword, from receiving which his unworthy hand recoiled, a* conscious guilt shrinks in the presence of spotless purity. Ah! General Grant! Is conscience already visiting on you the retribution for your perfidy! That longing for peace can never be gratified while the stain of your guilt remains. If it be not casting pearls before swine, we would re mind you that the pen of Inspiration has recorded that ‘‘The wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked “Let us have peace!” So Dives prayed when tormented in endless flame, he saw Lazarus afar off in Abraham’s bosom. So doubtless prayed Preston King tormented by tho ghost of the murdered Mrs. Surratt; the same prayer has doubtless been breathed by thousands of other criminals from the first fratricide to the last criminal that has expiated his crime on the gallows or by suicide; but still the prayer of the wicked is abomination to the Lord. Can it be possible that the great Butcher is tor mented before his time? Flunking to Freedmen. In this section wo have not hoard much said by Democratic speakers .which was calculated to repel the freedmen ; hut it would be well to take the trouble to speak to them and ex plain the true unity of interest which binds them to us. Speaking on this subject the Athens Watchman expresses the sound policy as follows : Every address to the freedmen we have heard, except that of Mr. Peeples, has had a tendency to repel them. If our speakers can not say any thing to encourage them in voting the Democratic ticket, in Heaven’s name, let them say nothing at all. We cannot favor the policy of driving them ofF. The ballot !»ox lias been thrust upon them—they will vote whether we believe in it or not— their votes will count as much as anybody’s. They are interested in good government. Many of them will vote for Seymour and Blair— thousands of them would do so, if encouraged to pursue that course. In Southern Geor gia they voted with their real friends, the whites, at the last election—they will do so again. They would do so here, if they had any encouragement. They know how con temptible the Bureau and scalawag crowd are —they feel a perfect contempt for them, and would now vote with their only turn; friends if managed properly. Why, then, labor so hard to drive them off 1 ? The Democrat. By the world renowned energy of the Im mortal “Brick” Pomeroy, a new Daily under this title was issued on Saturday last, in the city of. New York. Most enterprises cf this sort arc started as experiments, this is stamped in its very incipiency as n success, because the name of its editor and proprietor is a synonym for power and ability. AVhii 1 0 it is kept up to the high standard of excellence at which it bus taken its position, it is hound to meet the public approbation. The following extract from its Salutatory, has the true ring and hears unmistahle iparks of the vigorous pen of M. M. Pomeroy : “Our aim is to publish a Democratic paper that will reflect the sentiment of the Democra cy of the United States. We shall speak the sentiments of the people. The Democrat will ho unmistakably Democratic at all times and under all circumstances. It will follow the star of principle, no matter how many meteors of patronage flash athwart the sky. It will bo no society, or ring, fir clique organ, but a defender of the interest of the peoplo—the working men of the land—of the rights of States, regardless of consequences. Ours is a war against despotism, usurpation of power, official inconi potency, administrative extrava gance, official and political corruption in our own or other party, and from this position, threats, promises, nor inducements shall ever drive us.” Dignity. The Honorable (?) assemblage convened by order of (Jen. Meade, at the instigation of the indescribably despicable Joe. Brown, seems disposed to render itself ridiculous by putting on airs and claiming the dignity w hich at taches to real representatives of the people. On the 17th inst., one Mr. Adkins misrep resenting the 10th District, recommended to expel from his place the Reporter of the Con stitution because that paper had published a paragraph relative to his persuading the ne groes to prepare for war, and arm them, solves. The Senate failing to feel the impor tance of protecting his dignity by punishing one of the Tiblest papers in the State for re porting him truthfully, rejected his resolution, whereupon the Constitution compliments his lofty dignity after the following style: Dignity The “Dirty Dogs.”— When it is known that the wife and daughters of the “dirty dog” Ad kins, recently broke up their dining-room chairs over his filthy carcass, for attempting to force social equality with Boh Cromly, (ne gro), at their table, there will be no surprise at his puny effort to exelude us from the Sen ate Chamber, and less, that he was not cow hided on leaving the capitol. Nor is it surprising, that a self-acknowledged seducer and boastful instigator of negro insur rection, should fancy the ghost of Ashburn beckoning him downward to the hungry jaws of perdition. 0 Rough but Graphic. Col. E. 11. Townley, late of the Federal army, and a prominent convert from Radical ism, made a facetious speech beforo the Demo cratic Club at Baltimore, a few nights since. Ilis experience of army life is edifying, and we extract a leaf from it for public delectation. Read this: “I will bet that they will not got a Jew vote. I was there when that order was issued. It was just before the Yazoo Pass expedition at Helena. Every. Jew was put ashore. A Jew friend of mine was placed at night on the banks of the river with $7,000 worth of goods. In the morning there was not a remnant of his property left. Why did they send them baek? Was it because they feared their honesty and patriotism? No; because some generals were fearful that somebody would get more cotton than they did. I have seen officers buy whole steamboat loads at twenty-five cents a a bale. I once bought thirty-six bales from a negro for $2,50, and thought I was paying a high price. [Laughter.] It was worth sixty five cents a pound. The war was for plunder ana to dissolve the Union. I tell you so because I was in it. I never took a red-hot stove, but I waited one day four hours for one to cool. [Laughter.] I happened to turn my back tor a minute and" somo one had taken it away," O, Union! O, Constitution! 0, old flag!— What crimes were committed in your name! Aug. Con. Grant. —Our wide awake Chicago corres pondent tells a good story about Grant’s visit to Chicago. He says : General Grant, as you know, has been to Chicago, and Chicago did not turn out “muchly” to meet him. Chicago was the place where he received his nomina tion ; it was the place where Radical delegates met to do him honor, by selecting him as the candidate of their party ; but when he came there for the first time after his nomination, the great city was as “mum” as Grant him self. The great city did not change its usual gait There was no ecstasy, no noise, and “not a drum was heard,” and the enthusiasm was confined to one small boy who shouted “That’s General Grant. Have a paper sir?”— N. Y. Democrat. A Fact for Farmers. —lt may not be gen erally known that the seed of the sunflower is the most infallible remedy yet discovered for the speedy cure of founder in horses. The directions, which we glean from a brief article upon the subject in the Essex Danner, are: “Immediately on discovering that your horse is foundered, mix about a pint of the whole seed in his food, and it will perfect a cure.— Sunflowers are easily grown alongside of fences and in out-of-the-way places, where they take up but little room. The seed when fed in small quantities to the horse is very healthy, giving to the hair a peculiar gloss. It is a diuretic in its tendency. Fowls like it much, and thrive on it. The enthusiasm for Grant is very strong in St. Louis. Upon his arrival there recently, ho was dunned by an enthusiastic bar-keeper for $8.50, and interest for about ten years. The . -1: !i in u Nutshe'J. A Wilmington, (N. C.) paper says the fol lowing reply was made by an intelligent ne gro to a oarget-bagger who had lectured him on his Democratic proclivities, as he had become a member of the Democratic party. “Under your teaching (said the nejjp’O to the carpet-bagger) we have alienated from us the mass of the white peoplo North, us well as South ; you huve got tho offices and emolu ments, while we have done tho work and stand out in the eohl.. For one, lam done with you." There spoke a sensible African/ It was the whole truth in a nutshell; and there arc many, very many such who entertain the same opin ion of the Radical carpet baggers, and who, if they have not already, will soon come out from, and refuse any longer to be controlled by the pestiferous set who have dono so much harm to the negro by stirring up strife between him and his best friend, the white man, and all for the sake of the spoils of office. Color ed men of Georgia profit by tho example of your colored North Carolina brother. Tell the carpet-baggers, as be did, “For one, I am done with vou.”— At. Intel. What a Freedman can Do.—We commend the following from tho Galveston (Texas) News of the sth instant, to the attentive perusal of freedmen : The first hale of new cotton, shipped di rect to this place, came by railroad last evening consigned to A. Sessums & Cos. We under stand that is was from Bastrop county, and was part of the crop of Abe Gilmore, (colored.) Judging from the sample laid on our desk, the cotton would he classed as strict middling. We think Abe is entitles! to the silver pitcher, anil wo believe the enterprising firm to whom the cotton was consigned in this city will so decide. The same journal of the following day, says: As wo had anticipated, Abe Gilmore (color ed,) who sent the first bale of new cotton of the present crop direct to this city, was the recipient this morning of a handsome pitcher and two silver goblets, presented by A. Sea sums & Cos. The articles were purchased at M. W. Shaw’s, on Tremont street. It gives us pleasure to chronicle this evidence of liber ality on the part of one of our largest cotton firms, and we are not at all sorry that a wor thy and industrious freednian was the fortu nate individual to reap the benefit. What Abe Gilmore has done other freedmen can do by attending to their legitimate busi ness, and not leaving their work every week to go to cities and towns to engage in torch light processions and other demonstrations, for the purpose of elevating to office unscru' pulous carpet-baggers. Changes. —We are rejoiced to learn that hundreds and thousands in Northeast Georgia, who voted with the. Radical party on account of “Relief” falsely so-called, but' who. as we then insisted, had no sympathy whatever with Radicalism—are now wheeling into line, and will zealously support Seymour and Blair. This is nothing more than wo expected.— Its not usual for men who have been cheated and swindled, to sustain those who have abused their confidence. When we warned our readers that tho Brad ley Convention were wilfully and knowingly perpetrating a fraud upon the people, because they knew as well as wc did that the Radical Congress would strike out the so-called relief clause in the Constitution, the Radical leader told the people that we were trying to deceive them—that we spoke without authority. Tho peoplo have had an opportunity of testing tho matter, they now know who lied, and not only despise those who cheated them by inserting the relief clause, but feel, equal contempt fur those who deceived them after they had been faithfully warned. It is no wonder that those thus deceived should turn with loathing and disgust from the party for which they felt no affinity at first. We expect to see the Radical party of N. E. Georgia “grow small by degrees and beauti fully less.”— Athens Watchman. Death of the Largest Man in Kentucky. —A correspondent of the Louisville Courier says: 1 will give you a small sketch of the life and death of the largest man, perhaps, that ever lived in the State of Kentucky. William G. Willis died at a small village in Boone county by the name of Bullittsville, on Wednesday, the 20th of July, of apoplexy, lie was sick but a few hours, lie was without doubt tho largest man in the State, weighing five hun dred pounds on the day he died. His average weight varied during the last few years from five hundred and twenty down as low as four hundred and ninety poutfds, hut hewas weigh ing even five hundred pounds at the time of his death. Ilis height was about six feet.— He was keeping a toll-gate at the time of his death, and the passers-by had to go to him to pay their toll in the place of him going to them. Ileof late years has been in Barnum’s Museum, in New York, but left there about the time tho museum was burned last fall. New Phase or the War of Races. —ln the Chattanooga Republican, a journal black enough in Radicalism to do no injustice to the colored race, we find the following item, which may be set down as one of the “signs of the times Wheat Bi rni.vg. —We learned yesterday that two colored men in Rhea county, after procuring matches, lately went to the wheat stacks of three different citizens, fired them and burned them up. No cause for this strange lawless conduct is known by the citi zens in the community. They were arrested and lodged in jail to await trial. We have all heard of gold and silver wed dings, but the latest thing in this lino is a molasses candy wedding. This occurs when the first baby gets old enough to lick. The young lady who sang, “I wish some body would come !” has bad her desire grat ified. Eleven city cousins have arrived, and intend to stay all summer. Important to Distillers. The following letter from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, to Edgar Needham, of Ky., will ho of interest to all distillers : TKE.ls'v DEFT, OFFICE OF INT'i. REV., ) Washington, Aug. 1, 1868. J Sir: In order that the survey of distilleries requiod to ho made by section 10 of the act of-July 20, 1868, may he corroctly made, I dad re ttTcal! vouif attention, especially to tho provisions of tncsection referred to, in con riemon with the provision of section 13 and of section 20. Section 10 calls for an estimate and determination of the true producing ca pacity of each distillery; section 20 provides for an assessment in case the returns of the distiller show the production of a less quantity than eighty per centum of such producing ca pacity. Section 13 imposes a tax of two (2) dollars per day upon each distiller whose dis tiller) - has an aggregate capacity for mashing and fermenting twenty bushels of grain or less, or sixty gallons of molasses or less in twenty four hours. 3'hat several provisions may be properly teamed into effect, you will in making your survey' determine, separately, first the true produellij Apacity of tbe distil lery, or in other words, the quantity of spirits stated in proof gallons that can ho produced in twenty-fbur hours in such distillery, and next the number of bushels of grain or gallons of molasses which can be mashed and fermen ted in twenty-four hours. Very Respectfully. THOMAS HART.AND, Deputy Com'r. -» *■ - President Johnson. The rumor that President Johnson is con stantly under the influence of liquor is a base falsehood, gotten up by disappointed office seekers. We learn from tbe very highest private au thority, that the President seldom indulges even in a glass of wine, and that the use of whisky is entirely ignored by him at the “White House.” While we disagree with the President, in many respects, we cannot allow him to ho slandered in this way, without en tering our solemn protest. It is all wrong, and the people who fail to respect authority are in the broad road to bankruptcy and ruin. — Era. What Industry will Do.—“ There is a boy seventeen years old living in a county below Macon, who has twenty-one acres planted in cotton, lie hired one man early in the spring, prepared the land, bought about. SIOO worth of guano and put upon it. After getting it planted he started to school, which he has regularly attended during the summer, with the exception of about two weeks, which his crop required. He works an hour or two-ev ery morning, in the afternoon, and every Sat urday. His cotton is looking very fine, and he expects to get at least fifteen bales off the the twenty-one acres. Estimating each hale at 500 pounds, and that he get twenty five cents per pound, tho gross receipts will be $1,875. Ilis entire expense including gu ano will not be over SSO0 —which will leave $1,375 ns the net earning" of tins school boy. Give him the benefit of every doubt, and be will surely make Si, ooo clear. We commend this to young men mouuning over their fate, complaining that they can get nothing to do, and can make no money.”— Journal ib Mes senger. Montana, following in the wake of Oregon and Kentucky, has given a largely increased Democratic majority. Everywhere—in every direction whence comes the news of an elec tion, important or unimportant—the channels of public information are laden with the re ports of tho Democratic victories and Demo cratic gains. Over fifteen hundred gain in Oregon, in one year, in a voting population of only twenty thousand. Over forty thousand Democratic gain in the single State of Ken tucky. As alast resort for getting husbands during leap year, the young ladies (we mean those anywhere between twenty-five and thirty) of London originated a moonlight picnic, which came off at the Fair Grounds on Thursday evening. The night was a lovely one, the crowd in attendance large, and the whole af fair a decided success. Refreshments were taken to the grounds by the girls, and a fine cotillon hand furnished music at one of the halls, where dancing was kept up until the small hours. Whether the moonlight walks, talks and drives had the effect to bring matters to “business,” remains to be seen.— London (O.) Democrat. A dispatch from the Democratic Congres sional Resident Committee at Washington, says the advices received by them from every portion of the country, are of the most cheer ing character. In Boston tho Democrats ex pect to carry the two city Congressional Dis tricts, and the city for Seymour and Blair. From lowa a correspondent writes that during the thirteen years he has resided there he never knew the Democracy to start upon a campaign with more general good feeling and sanguine expectations, In Michi gan the Democrats report that they are thor oughly organized and are certain to carry the State against Radicalism negro suffrage, and prohibition laws. The reports from Nebraska and Wisconsin are equally encouraging. Butler. —The death of Tliad.

Among the gifts to a newly married pair recently, was a broom sent to the lady, ac companied with the following sentiment: “This trilling gift accept from me, Tt.s use I would commend ; In sunshine use the brushy part, In storms the other end.” A gentleman who recently visited the north ern section of Carroll county, Georgia, reports the crojis very line, lie says both corn and cotton* prom rue an abundant yield. Now and Then. The following quotations from speeches and writings of iho leading supporters of Grant, show tho opinions they have entertained of him withip a year past : Tilton—“Grant is a drunkard.” Phillips—“ Grant is as brainless as bis sad dle.” Sumner—Says that Grant is not an "irrever sible guarantee,” an J made a white washing report to fortify Andrew Johnson. Chase—“ Grant is a man of vile habits and of no ideas.” Anna Dickinson —“l am going to Europe to get out of advocating .this bungler. Mrs. Stanton —“Grant says nothing, and knows less than nothing." Wilson —“l will never, so help me God, sup port any but temperance men for office.” Greeley—“ The Presidency requires a man of ideas and a statesman.” Colfax—“l declare in advance that nodoubt lul man shall have my vote for President ” Kelley—“l will die in my tracks beforo 1 will subscribe to the white-washing report of this man (Grant), who has joined his testimo ny and he will join his fate to that public ene my,” (A. Johnson.) Curtis—“ Only a man in favor of negro suffrage can command my vote.” Grant de clares “negro suffrage means a war of races.” Old Thad.—“ Never ask mo to support a •twaddler and trimmer for office.” Geary—“ Drunkards, like pirates are public enemies.” Frclinghuysen—“The nation owes it. to its self-respect to tolerate imbecility in politics no longer.” Wade—“ Grant knows nothing about politic.-. * * * Jle can talk nothing but horse.” Yates—l own 1 have been a drunkard : and 1 will be one 110 longer, nor will I cast my lot with such men. A novel pedestrian feat was recently per formed in England. A man ran, walked, wheeled a harrow, and trundled a hoop and hopped on one leg, a distance of five miles, in separate feats of a mile each, within one hour, for £2O, and won. with two minutes to spare. Mr. Seth lJovden, the strawberry culturist of Newark, believes that in the course oftwen tv years he could raise strawberries as large as pineapples, and of equal delicacy with those now grown. Scoundrels Around. —A correspondent in forms us that on Saturday evening last, Mr. Fullhight, a few miles from Thomson, Colum bia county, was shot at by some unknown party or parties. On the same night Mr. Brown was also shot at. And as the up-freight train was passing over the switch, near Thom son, it was fired into and a colore 1 man shot in tho face. A couple of colored men, fugi tives from justice, are suspected of being the perpetrators of these outrages, and efforts will doubtless he made at once to s. cure their arrest. — Chronicle <(.' Sentinel, Aug 18. Wife Shooting.— The Carmel, N. s'. Courier gives us anew method of obtaining divorces, in that section, in this style: “Still another gentlemitn (the fourth within five weeks,) ha mistaken his wife in the night for a burglar, and shut her. This last valiant and shrewd individual lives in Troy. It strikes n« that this method of getting a divorce is getting to he rather too common. Somebody will play tho little game once too often. It is ingenious: but age will he apt to—’ •‘Stale its infinite variety.” The Girls.— Encourage your girls to exer cise. Let them race round tho garden till il.ey are married, and then race round after their own children. Let them jump rope and play battledore on tho piazza. Praise them for quick and graceful motions. Let them rest when tired, but don’t allow listless movements about their work. Iflreuse work is in their vvny, it is better for them to labor bard tor one hour and rest oro, then to take tip the two by slow performance. There is a great deal of strength and spirit saved by knowing how to work. I know that to go slowly about dus ting, sweeping, ironing a whole forenoon, is tiresome as well as dull, hut to do either of these things brisklv, turns it into a good exer cise. Quick work is not so fatiguing as slow. —Exchange The Negro Poful.vtion. - M e are informed by a gentleman upon whoso veracity wo de pend that in the Missionary Kcei*id (a negro paper of this city), published on Saturday, it is assorted that the white people seem bent on a collision, and that the blacks arc prepared for them ; that every plantation has its cap tain, and that fifty thousand negroes arc arm ed and prepared at a moment's notice to de fend their rights and liberties. This assertion regarding the negroes being armed is confirm ed by the statements of delegates from all quarters of the State in the Democratic con vention of Columbia.— Ch. Mer. +«»«■- — Grant wants peace. Seymour will give it, to him after March 4th, 1800. There was almost money enough spent for liquor in the United States last year to pay the national debt. Shame on Ulysses ! Fred. Douglas declines to take the stump for Grant. The New York Herald says : “The filet is, tho people have nearly forgotten that Grant is a candidate. Why is a married man like a candle?
