CHANGING THE TICKS fa
The reported proposal ol the N. \. World,
for a ebange of Democratic candidates on the
Presidential ticket, has elicited a storm of con
demnation from the Democratic press iti all
quarters. Indeed, while we are loth to enter
tain the thought, there is strong apparent evi
dence that the proposal originates in treason
to the Democratic cause. The nomination was
approved unanimously by tlio National Con
vention, and it is rather presuming even in
the great World to propose to discard them.
Our candidates represent our principles, and
if those selected will not command popular
support there are no other Democrats who
will. But there is really no reasou to aps
prehend the defeat of our ticket as it stands.
Let every Democrat do V* duly, and the reign
of Radicalism is at an end. Another such
victory as that on the 13th will be the ruin of
that party of destruction. Let us hear no
more whining about polic;/, but every Demo
crat work for the triumph of true priori pie. —
Then all will be well.
WHAT OF IT T
The ardor of enthusiastic Democrats received
a considerable check last week when it was
found that the oleetions of the 13th were car
ried by the Radicals in the four States which
voted on that day. What does this prove ?
Simply that too much waa expected by those
ardent friends of liberty 7 who had beard the
heavy blows inflicted on Radicalism in the late
elections there, and suffered their wishes to
mislead their judgment into hoping for the
total overthrow of that jmrty of ruin at once.
This was not an unnatural error for the suffer
ing Southern people to fall into. The mystery
to them Isas been to see the intelligent people
of the North held so long under false teaching
concerning the real sentiments of our people;
hence, when the clouds of falsehood began to
he dissipated there they expected the light to
be clear without the necessary time for re
action. The result on the I3fh is more cheer
ing than might have been anticipated. Radi
cal money was lavishly expended to control
the result, and yet, in all sections their major
ities have decreased, so that they certainly
have nothing to exult over in their victory, hut
another such victory will be their ruin.
Then, away with grumbling ! The field is
not lost. If the people are properly aroused
the victory is safe for Seymour and Blair in
November. But, if again Democracy is defeat
ed it is idle and puerile to give up in despair.
Principles do not die when crushed ; they rise
with the overwhelming force of accumulated
truth, and sweep to inevitable destruction
whatever opposes them.
Our brethren in the North are not disheart
ened, they see the situation more clearly than
wo can, jet they speak brave words of cheer
for the encouragement of the timid. Even if
the worst of our fears should be realized, we
only aggravate the evils hv anticipating them.
If the country is doomed to another term of
Radical rule, there will he satisfaction in the
consciousness of having done all in our power
to avert so dire a calamity. But the result is
as vet by no means settled. A determined ef
fort on the part of the people will yet drive the
Radicals from power in the national Capital.
This result accomplished, the beneficial results
in the form of peace and material prosperity
can scarcely be estimated ; but, even failing
to carry the election for Seymour, wc can with
out doubt, control the local affairs of Georgia,
and take our natural position as an unchange
ably Democratic State. Our cause is just;
and,however powerful the combinations against
it, in the end it must prevail. Courage and
perseverance arc invincible to all the powers
of evil.
THANKSGIVING.
Thursday, November 2f)th, is designated by
the President of the United States as a day of
National Thanksgiving. The people would
wore acceptably praise God by heeding the
Divine injunctions “ Cease to do evil; learn
to do well,’’ It looks like irony in the present
condition of our people to appoint a day of
thanksgiving. Better be clad in sack cloth
and ashes, in token of mourning for the deso
lation of our country. But, while honest men
mourn over tl»e ruins of our once favored land,
it may be well for the Radicals to give thanks,
and for their use the following litany is sub
mitted : “ Our father who art the devil, we
thank thee for the terrible works of hatred and
bloodshed which thou hast inspired in our
land 5 we praise thee for the misery and dis
tress which thy scheme of Radicalism has in
flicted on the whole jicople ; for the musical
wails of the widows and orphans with whom
our country is tilled ; for the astounding vil
lany of thy servants who rule us now ; and for
the subversion of the Republic of Washington
and the establishment of a Congressional oli
garchy, whereby the people are ground down
with unparalleled taxation that their oppressors
may riot in luxury. For these and the thous
sad other glorious results of Radicalism which
thou hast been pleased to Grant us, we would
give thee thanks, both now aud evermore, until
thou shalt receive us home to thv warm em
brace.- ’
And let all the Radicals say, Amen.
The violent deaths in New York city aver,
age one thousand |>er annum, and the deaths
resulting from disease, but investigated by the
Coroner, amounted to about one thousand
more. The fees aione paid to the Coroners of
that city amount to twenty-six thousand five
hundred dollars every year.
From the.New York Express, Oet. 'J.
Peri tons precedents.
We endeavored to show, yesterday, what a
perilous experiment it would be, on the part
of the people, to intrust the aduiinisUtluH* of
the Government t»> a man like Grant, wholly
inexperienced in the details of civil govern
ment, and prone, so far as any one may judge
of his jsditical leanings, tor be precisely w hat
ever the cunning demagogues, into whose
hands ho must inevitably fall, inav see lit to
make him. In ordinary times such an expe
riment would be a thing to be deprecated—
but under the circumstance* in which mir dis
tracted country is now placed, it would be the
bight of folly—nay, madness itself. Hence,
we repeat again and again, this is no time for
such experiments, with now and untried men,
—and especially not with men whoso only re
cord is that which has coine of civil war, and
of an era in American history which no lover
of his country can ever contemplate save with
feelings of anguish and regret.
But. apart from the perilous experiment of
thus placing the administration of the Govern
ment in the hands of a man who most, from
the absolute necessity imposed upon him by
his personal and political surroundings, become
a mero military dictator, certain grave prece
dents are to ho established by his election, of
which it is well not to lose sight. Some of
these may be summarily 7 set forth as follows :
The election of Grant, with the retention in
power of the Radical party, will be n ratifica
tion by the jieojilo of all the violations of the
Constitution which have marked the conduct
of that party from the start.
It will be a precedent for establishing gov
ernments of force, in spite of the will of the
people, in pnrts of the eonn'trv where Radical
ism and Radicals are unpopular.
It will be a precedent for making this gov
ernment, thus, not a government of and for
the whole people—but only for a portion—it
may bo n mere beggarly minority even.
If substantially, a popular endorse
ment of all the audacious and shameless violas
tions of law 7 of which this Radical party have
been guilty during the last seven or eight
years including—
Arbitrary and illegal arrests.
The seizure of persons and papers without
color of lawful authority.
The substitution of military for civil law in
time of peace and in sections of country
where there is no resistance to the govern
ment.
The destruction of the liberty of the press.
The denial of freedom of elections.
The closing up of the courts, the suspension
of the habeas corpus, and the denial of justice
to the people, where justice was due.
The withholding of all parliamentary rights
and privileges from minority representatives
in the Federal Legislature.
The establishment of a financial policy
which increases the wealth of the rich and
tends to make the Door man a mendicant.
Which lays the labor and industry of the
nation under a fearful contribution, for the
benefit of wealthy manufacturing and banking
corporations.
Moreover it will be an indorsement ot
The High Tariff Swindle.
The shameful extravagance in the public
expenditures, and
An opening of the door for still heavier bur
dens of taxations, with— '
The multiplication of the army of internal
revenue collectors, who are eating up the
substance of the country, like the locusts of
Egypt. The maintenance of a groat standing
army in the Southern Statess, at an average
cost, each man, of §2,000 per annum— to come
in due proportion, out of the pockets of the
workingman, the mechanic, the salaried clerk,
and the poor sewing girl, alike.
These arc some of the precedents, financial
and economic, which the election of Grant
will be used to confirm and establish. There
are others of even a graver character, affecting
our social and political status, which must not
be overlooked. Among these are—
The enforcement of negro suffrage.
The inauguration o f a war of races, with
The conversion of ten States of the Union
into so many Yankee San Domingos, Ilaytis,
and Mexicos.
Now, be it borne in m'ud, we do not speak of
these as grievances in the future tense. They
arc things past and present —tilings which, and
the effect of which, the Democratic party ai e
solemnly pledged to redress, and to prevent
the recurrence of, but which, should Grant be
elected, will bo received as Radical precedents
warranting the repetition of them in future
when ever the interests of the demagogues in
power with him as their leader shall point that
way.
It remains for the people, then, to sav
whether they are ready to open the door to
such precedents, whether they are ready to
torn their hacks on the bitter experiences of
the past, and to give anew lease of power to
the bad men and the wicked party that have
come so near making a total wreck of popular
liberty, constitutional government, and of ev
erything, in short, for which our revolutionary
ancestors thought it worth while, at the cost
of a seven years' conflict, to throw off the
British yoke.
What Grant’s Election Means.
Wendell Phillips, the great Radical loader,
says that “Grant's election melts the millions
into one indivisible whole, calling us to stamp
on it what legend we will.” In other words.
Grant's election makes negro equality univer
sal throughout the United States,abolishes nil
distinction on account of color, opens to whites
and blacks alike, without discrimination, the
common schools, hotels, restaurants, places of
amusement, and establishes the negroes as a
part of the law making and governing element
of the country. We may stamp on that fusion
of the millions of whites, ami blacks into one
indivisible whole, “Amalgamation,” “JVlon
grelism,” or whatever legend wc will, so the
fact of fusion is made imperishable. And that
is really the philosophy of the Radical recon
struction policy. Wendell Phillips under
stands it thoroughly.
An Extra ot diunry Exhibition-—A Patent
Safety I'offlu—A Mail Buried Alive aud
Resurrects Himself.
A German gentleman named Tester, a resi
dent of Newark, recently obtained a patent for
a Safety Coffin, designed to provide a way of
escape to those who might be burled (Hiring
suspended animation. This invention consists
of a coffin constructed similar to those now in
use, except that it is a little higher, to allow
of the free movement of the body ; the top lid
is movable from bead to breast, and iri case of
interment is left open, with a spring attached
for closing tie- same, lower tiit> bead is a re
ceptacle for refreshments and restoratives. The
important part of the invention is a box two
feet square, resembling very much a chimney,
with a cover and ornamental grave work on
the top. Tills box is of siitlieient length to
extend from the lieiad of the coffin to about one
foot above ground. The cover is fastened down
by a catch, an 1 cannot ho unfastened from
the outside. Just below the cover is a hell
with a cord appended, which, upon being
pulled, sounds an alarm, mid at the same time
a spring throws the cover from the “ chimney
box." Then, if the person on the Inside have
sufficient strength, be or she can take bold of
a rope suspended from the top of the chimney
box, and with the assistance of cleets, ascend
to the outer world ; or otherwise the individual
Can ring tlio bell for the sexton to conic and
assist him out. Mr. Vestcrgave an exhibition
of the working of this invention by being bu
ried, and, after more than an hour's interment,
resurrecting himself. The gravediggers hav
ing excavated a hole six feet deep, a black
coffin with silver trimmings was placed upon
two supports over it-
Mr. Vaster came forward and took his posi
tion in the coffin, tlio lid of which was placed
over him, at which time he was greet-d with
many an anxious and jocular “good-bye..’’ The
coffin was lowered to the bottom of the grave.
The “chimney box” was then set down over
the coffin, over which wnncrivreatLis ‘of flow
ers had been strewn. The grave diggers set
to work with a will, and, in fifteen minutes,
Mr. Vester was effectually buried, with at least
four feet of earth between him and daylight.
After a lapse of an hour and a quarter, a gen
tleman stated that Mr. Tester was to remain
down below for two hours : but some of the
spectators were anxious to return home, and,
consequently, if agreeable, Mr. Tester would
appear at once, or remain the specified time.
Ali present being satisfied, a signal was given,
and a minute after Mr. Tester, unaided, step
ped out of his grave with no more perceptible
exhaustion than would have been caused by
walking two or three blocks under the hot sun.
His exit was received with enthusiasm and
applause, and hundreds rushed to congratulate
Mr. Tester upon the success of his novel in
vention.—A". 3". Express.
Close Hanks ! -Shoulder to Shoulder ! SJaad
Firm !
All true Democrats are sworn brothers, and
bound to stand by cacti other, and by the
cause. Now, more than ever, should this be
our rule when treason is doing its vile and
hateful work to divide and defeat ns. Me
are a great and powerful party, and are des
tined, at no distant day. to take possession of,
and long thereafter to hold, the political power
of this country. For the maintenance of the
strength and efficiency of our organization,
and the preservation of its morale , we hud
need to “close ranks," and make one grand
charge for victory in the October contest,
and possibly win, where defeat was probable.
Whatever the result, we had it in our power
to sb iw our strength, our spirit, ami
foreshadow our future success. This was
necessary to make that success speedy and
certain, and to teach the enemy our power,
ox tori, from him respect, and compel him t>
caution. Still mute is it necessary now, to
“close up," and "stand firm,'’ when the same
elements of disaffection which sought to sell
out the party at the July Convention, are do
ing what they can to destroy the candidates
and the cause.
Then let all true Democrats cling closer
than ever to each other, arid be more earnest,
brave, and devoted. Rise superior to treason
and defeat, and go on with the great work
which is to redeem the land, and establish upon
it firm and enduring basis constitutional liber
ty the rights of labor, and white supremacy.

The Franklin (St. Marv) Planters' Banner,
of Qoti her 3d. relates the following :
Last Saturday a colored man who was for
merly a servant of .Mr. G. 1). Fuselicr, but who
purchased his freedom before the war, mingled
with the crowd of white and colored Democrats
and Radicals on our streets, during the speech
es and the movement of the procession, w ith
the following card written distinctly, and placed
on the front, of his hat:
“ mv PRixcin.ES.”
“ I owe no thanks to any man for my free
dom.
1 earned it, during the time of slavery,
through honest toil, and with the protection of
God.
Believing the North the home of freedom,
I visited Boston, New Fork, Philadelphia, and
other Northern cities in search of liberty and
equal rights.
There I met. no friends of my race. I re
t ::r. 1 to th 3 sunny South, and hero I live,
and feel that I can live free and happy among
the Southern people, the true friends of the

best country, and the Southern whites are the
best friends of the black race.
Therefore, I am a staunch and fearless Dem

Blair.

A Common Sense View. —The New York
Ilcrahl , referring to the tinaneial condition of
the Government, says:
“ i'lie whole matter is plain enough, and
can be summed up in a few words. The in
come from revenue is falling off, and likely to
fall off more, from the disorganization of the
executive department of the Governient, from
the stupendous frauds, and from the reduction
of taxes on manufactures. The expenditures
continue to be enormous, especially in the War
Department, and are exceeding the income,
Mr. McCulloch’ s large money reserve is rap
idly wastingfiwav, and there is likely to he an
empty 7 treasury before the end of many
months.”
A End.cal speaker, at Lowell,- Massachu
setts, the other evening, spoke of the public
debt as a “inormm t.t of girry, the base of
which lasts on the shoulders of the common
people." There is no doubt as to where the
base rests, and with crushing effect. Fn, han
enormous structure requires a Broad resting
place. As to tlio ‘-fHivvv" then: Is UouLtlin .1
difference of opinion. Tlat-e who, like J.ty
Cooke, regard it a public blessing, can see the
“glory But those who have to Bear its bur

More than fifteen thousand Democratic voters
of foreign Birth, and who bad Been regularly
natutalized were refused the tight of suffrage
in Pennsylvania at the late election by tlie
Know Nothing Judges. The admission of
their votes alone without reference to the nu
merous frauds practiced bv the Radicals would
have given the State to the Democracy by a
handsome majority. Talk of a Radical victo
ry in Pennsylvania, indeed ! — Louisri'le Couri

A dispatch from New Orleans, dated Octo
ber 18th, says:
“The .Sheriff and parish Judge of St. Ma
ry's Parish were assassinated at Franklin,
Louisiana, last night, by parties who escaped
without being recognized. The Sheriff was
killed in his hotel. The parish Judge's body
was found on the street by the patrol, which
was organized Jsoon after the discovery of
the Sheriff"s assassination. The Ccroner’s
inquest is progressing but has elicited nothing
toward the discovery of the perpetrators.—
Several men were engaged in the transaction,
but being mounted on horses escaped in the
dark ness.
Jasper Blackburn, Radical M. C. from Lou

says :
Treason lias failed in its object 1
The Old Guam stands firm !

Now that treason is detected and rebuked,
mir gnllnnt legions, truer and more determined
than ever, have set their array in order, and

“Yet freedom ! yet, thy banner torn but flying,
(Streams like a tbunder-storm against the

Thy trumpet voice, though broken now and

Thy tree Wth lost its blossoms, aud the rind,
Chopp'd by the axe, looks rough and little
worth,
But tin- sap lasts— and still the seed we find
Sown deep, even in the bosom of the North :
So shall a better spring less bitter fruit bring
forth.”
It is certain that the most stupendous frauds
were perpetuated in Indiana, Ohio and Penn
sylvania, and yet, even with 'tins, they have
only been able to carry those States by greatly
reduced majorities. Nothiug could be more
significant. The unerasing energy and vigi
lance manifested )>y -thq Democracy, continued
