THE ELECTION.
Next Tuesday, the 3d of November, is the
day which will determine whether the Repub
lic of our fathers shall be restored, or the de
struction which has been inaugurated by the
Radicals, shall be completed. Those who have
given attention'to the issues involved, cannot
fail to have decided which party should com
mand their votes. There are but two sides to
the question before our people. All who prefer
the despotism of an irresponsible sectional
party such a* has afflicted our country for the
last eight years, should vote the Radical ticket.
All who like the prosperous administration of
the government, which blessed our country
previous to 1860, should vote for Seymour and
Blair.
There is neither room nor excuse for any to
stand neutral in this contest. The point to be
determined is between the validity and per
petuity of the Constitution, to which the Dem
ocratic candidates and party are pledged, and
the avowed policy of the Radicals of aoting
outside the Constitution.
All who are not for the restoration and pre
servation of the Constitution, are against it.
The issue is between the people and the usurp
ers whose misrule has occasioned all the mis
ery and distress under which the country has
•uffered since 1860. Let every lover of liberty
not only vote for the restoration of the Consti
tutional government of our fathers, but see that
aii his neighbors do likewise. Let them all
know the importance of every vote, and let
none who claim to be patriots, fail to attend the
REMEMBER!
Every one who fails to vote for Seymour on
next Tuesday consents to the abominations of
the Radical policy.
If you • .c for Grant, you aid in the destruc
tion of * t little liberty remaining to the Amer
ican ■ ople. If you don't voto at all, you con
ee . to all the evil deeds of the Radical party.
Vote for Seymour, and record your name
among those of the hosts of liberty. Do this
and your children’s children will be proud of
your memory as we are proud of the memory
of our ancestors who contended for liberty in
fiie last century. Vote with the enemies of
your rights, and know that your memory will
be a reproach of to all who love the right, till
you sink into the cold night of oblivion 1
Think in time ! Can you afford to fail to
vote for peace, freedom, and prosperity when
this may be the last opportunity ever afforded
you tojspeak for the right?
THE PEACE PROPOSED BY GRANT.
In reference to the peace policy talked of so
much by the Radicals, the New York World
inquires:
“ llow is this peace man tolet us have peace ?
Beecher says we must ‘ have in the President
tial chair a man who knows how to drive.’—
Sherman says that in his election the ‘ carpet
baggers, scalawags, and loyal negroes will be
above the rebels of the South.’ Ben Wado says
lie will have peace ; he will ‘ fight for peace ;’
that he will ‘ desolate the South,’ but what he
will have it.
We shall have to fall back on the peace man
himself, whose idea is that, ‘ believing it to be
the province and duty of every good govern'
ment, to afford protection to the lives, liberty,
and property of her citizens, I would recom
mend the declaration of martial law * * to
secure these ends.’ [ Letter January 29,1867.]
Nice peace this is.”
Wouldn’t the country be happy with such
a peace? France had peace when Louis Na
poleon elected himself Emperor. Do you want
such a peace? If you do, vote for Grant. If
you do not, then vote for Seymour.
WORTH CONSIDERING.
The following suggestion from a Western
paper, may well command the attention of vo
ters. The records of all history warn republics
against military chieftains. Is ours to be an
exception ?* Is not Grant ambitious ? Let civil
affairs he entrusted to a statesman rather than
a warrior:
“ If Grant should be elected President of the
United States next month, the American people
have no assurance that they will ever hold an
other Presidential election. The tendency of
Radicalism is toward consolidation and the
centralization of power, and in the brief period
during which the Radicals have been in au'
thority they have advanced with fearfully rapid
strides in that direction. Grant is no Caesar,
hut as Caesar undertook to erect an imperial
throne upon the ruins of a republican fabric
that had stood for centuries, Grant might take
it into his head, by the aid of his Radical fol
lowers. to plav a similar feme.
WATCH THE POLLS.
It is highly important that active and vigil
ant Democrats should attend the polls all day,
and challenge every vote which is suspected
of being fraudulent, particularly to guard
against ignorant freedmen who may he induced
by unscrupulous Radicals to try to vote more
than once. In every such case npply the test
provided by the following section of the Code
of Georgia :
“Sec. 1307. The Suporntendcnts tnny, in
their discretion, or if demanded by a qualified
voter, compel a person offering to voto to take
this oath:
‘I swear that I have not this day voted at
any election held at any place in this State for
any of the candidates, nor for any other person
for any office to be filled. So help me God.”’
WHICH IS LAW ?
Gov. Bullock has ordered three polls to ho
opened at the court house in each county in
the State, while the Code of Georgia, which
some think is law, regulates that matter by the
following section :
“ Sec. 1312. Such elections shall he hold at
the Court House of the respective counties, and
if no Court House, at some place within the
limits of the county site, and at the several
election precincts thereof, (if any,) established
or to he established. Said precincts must not
exceed one in each militia district. Such pre
cincts are established, changed, or abolished
by the Justices of the Inferior Court at a reg'
uinr term or the Court, descriptions of which
must he entered on their minutes at the timo. v
DO YOU CONSENT TO IT t
The success of the Radicals on Tuesday next
establishes their doctrines, of taxation without
representation, of legislation by a usurping
sectional Congress in defiance of the written
Constitution, of the addition of eight hundred
or a thousand millions to the already insuffer
able national debt, by paying it in gold instead
of the legal tender currency,#>f the social and
political equality of the different races of men ;
and last, though by no means least, it endorses
the provision of the Radical Constitution of
of Arkansas, which makes it a felony for any
man to preach the gospel without first having
sworn to always be an ultra Radical. Do you
agree toall these doctrines? If not, you should
vote against them. Seymour is the represent
ative of the principles of constitutional liberty ;
Grant is the embodiment of military despotism,
nave you no choice ?
WHO MAY HOLD ELECTIONS.
Any Justice of the Peace, whose commission
is not cancelled, is authorized to act as an elec
tion manager. Or, in the absence of magis
trates, any three freeholders are authorized to
hold an election. Polls will be opened at all
the precincts in the county —none having been
abolished, nor any new ones established. Bear
this in mind, and repair to the nearest precinct
and there deposit your vote for Seymour and
Blair, Besides the different places of voting
throughout the county there will be three bal
lot boxes at the Court House.
This liveliest"of - Hve~(la7T“"papers * "which

“ We shall behold, earnest, persistent—Dem

to punish enemies, so far as in our power is the
ability.
In a short time the Democrat will be enlarged

GOV. SEYMOUR AT CLEVELAND.
Being unable to publish the entire speech
delivered by Gov. Seymour at Cleveland, Ohio,
a few days since, we give only a short extract
which should ho read by every voter. Let
every true lover of constitutional liberty rally
at the polls on Tuesday next and give Sey
mour and Blair such an overwhelming majori
ty as will crush out Radical tyranny and usur
tion for all time to come. Governor Seymour
says :
“My friends, we arc engaged in an election
which most deeply concerns the people of this
whole nation. Labor is oppressed with taxa
tion, and business in all its branches is embar
rassed to such a degree as to excite anxiety
for the future. They say that labor is not tlio
keenest sufferer ; but, my laboring friends, do
you not know that when you provide for your
family, when you buy food and clothing and
the necessaries of life, they cost more than
they used to? Dovou not know that it is the
tax that causes this ? There is waste anil
official extravagance in every department of
the Government, and you of foreign birth,
when we invited you to become citizens of our
glorious country, to its liberties and Heaven
bestowed privileges, did we not tell you that
there were no tax gatherers to chase you down ?
But how is it now ? There is no reason why
every thing should not be as free as ever ; but
there is a tax-gatherer at every corner, and
Govgrnmentofficials swarm through the land?”
*********
“Is it not right and prudent, and for the
interest of all sections of the country, that
the extreme policy of the Republican party
should he modified? If we succeed in this
great contest we cannot gain the power to
make the laws. The Senate and the House
of Representatives are Republican and we
cannot control them ; hut with a Democratic
Executive wo could check the extreme meas
ures which even the moderate and candid
members of their own party denounce. They
say that we are revolutionary candidates ; but
how can that be when they have control of
Congress, the army and the navy, and all that
makes our national strength? Can myself
and Mr. Blair trample on their power? You
know that we cannot. I beg of you my
fellow-citizens, to give careful thought to
these matters. I implore you to follow them
out for yourselves. If your iudginent tells
J tern to vote against me. do so.
GOV. SEYMOUR AT CHICAGO.
On the night of the 24th inst., Gov. Seymour
addressed an immense concourse of people at
the court house, and from his speech the fol
lowing extract is given, to show the crtlih and
rational views entertained hy him, as Vtell as
the forcible manner in which he presents the
truth to the people who have been misled by I
the false issues raised by the Radicals to pre
judice them against the South. After alluding
to the responsibility of the Republican party
for tiie wicked policy pursued towards the
South since war, and referring to the efforts of
that party to make this contest on false and
dead issues of the past, the Governor shows the
importance of the South, and the efforts which
have been made to crush our section. This
portion of his speech should be read by every
voter in the South, therefore wc give it in his
own language, as follows :
“At this moment wc arc confronted by im
minent dangers and serious difficulties. We
owe it to our business men, to our mechanics,
and to our laborers, in a thoughtful way to
I find out, that wc may relieve them from
these perplexities and burdens. I will
speak to-night with regard to some of
them, especially the Northwestern and
Southern States, and through them the jntercst
of the whole country. Before the )nte .rebel
lion, as the great cotton producing country of
the world, we had the advantage over all rival
nations. This product stimulated our com
merce, gave the material needed by our man
ufacturers, brought in return for its prices in
other lands the merchandise needed for our
people, or turned the balance of trade in our
favor, and filled the vaults of our banks and
the pockets of onr people with gold and silver.
All the labor of the South was engaged in this
profitable culture. They bought their provis
ions mainly from this and adjoining States-
Thus the corn, the wheat, the beef and pork
of this region were turned into cotton and in
that form reached the markets which they
could not do in tneir original conditions.—
When civil war broke out and this process
was stopped, corn fell so low that in some
parts of the West i' was used for fuel, and
great distress prevailed. The demand for our
armies and the markets of the East ’and of
Europe restored its value, but experience has
taught you that you cannot with safety eount
upon being able to send at all times your pro
ducts to distant markets. Your interests de
mand that the prosperity of the South should
be restored at the earliest moment. We want
them to help us pay our taxes. The interest
of our country demands that the culture of
cotton should be revived. Our foreign and
internal commerce languishes for the want of
this. The negro of the South cannot he ad
vanced in civilization and make a good and
orderly citizen unless he is profitably employ
ed.- The planter cannot pay him his wages
unless ho gets money for his crops. What
was the first step taken by those in power?
The South, prostrated, poor and disorganized
at the end of the war, tried to carry on the
ffiffiVlnsevT‘A'mer'Tcan’negret "'lie had in many
repects a deeper interest in the success of this
trial than the white man had. Ilis very exis
tence as a race, the judgment of the whole
world as to his capacity to do the duty of an
American citizen, hangs upon the success of
tlio trial which we are now making at the
South.
In our efforts to give all races in that section
peace an I prosperity, did these rulers stretch
out a helping hand? No, they said to the
white man and negro alike, we will not let jou
get the full value of your products in the mar
kets of the world ; we will put a heavy tax on
the cotton you send out of the eountrv -, you
shall sell it to the Eastern manufacturer for
less than its value in European markets. This
act was not only cruel, but it was unwise. It
crushed the first efforts of reviving industry ;
it pushed back an impoverished and disorgan
ized people in their efforts to build up their
social system ; it was one of the first and great
est causes of the disorder which exists at the
South. The unpaid African could not see why
his ruined employer was unable to pay him
his wages, ami he was tilled with rage and hate
towards him. The employer found his slender
and slow credit still further weakened. In
whose interest was this wrong done if not that
of the cotton manufacturer of the East, whose
profits have been enormous, and who was pro
tected by the highest tariffs? llow did this
i measure tell upon the farmers of the West and
| the planters of the South ? The latter could
j not buy your pork and corn, and he was com
pelled by starvation to raise these things for
himself. Aon lost the markets you should have
gained. The export duty on cotton proved to
] be an export duty on corn. If you wish to
! know why the South is still disordered, you
will find the reason in acts like this, and in
such purposes and vindictive passions which
prompted their enactment. It is true that the
measure is repealed, but the evil it has done
cannot be recalled.
Shipment of Arms Southward.
The New York Sun makes the following
statement: “Several individuals are now in
New York engaged in purchasing and ship
ping arms to the Southern Status. One of
them is from Texas, another from Georgia,
two aro from South Carolina, and two or threo
others are from Alabama, Louisiana and Ten
nessee. The articles they are purchasing are
mainly revolvers and repeating or breech-load
ing rifles ; all the models of muzzle-loading
weapons are discarded, and the purchasers aro
understood to prefer short barrels to long ones.
Two thousand revolvers were sent South in
one consignment three weeks ago, and ship
ments of two, three and five hundred revolvers
are unpleasantly frequent. The Charleston
steamer last week took a dozen cases of hard
ware, which was really a lot of breech loading
rifles destined for private parties in that city,
One dealer in fire-arms admits that he has
more orders than he can fill for the present, |

Gen. Blair’s Alleged Threat oi Assassin- j
ation.
The Associated Press report of Gen. Blair’s
speech at St. Louis on Friday represents him
as saying “that Gen. Grant, if elected Presi
dent, would never leave the \\ hite House
alive.” But the St. Louis Republican of Sat
urday, in its full report of the speech, shows
that lie mode quite a different statement. The
following is an extract of that portion which
has been erroneously telegraphed :
‘‘The point to which l desire to bring you
is this : that in this struggle wo have every
thing at stake ; that it is the final and last
struggle for the preservation of frde consti
tutional government in America—that if we
fail in it the republic fails with us. It becomes
the mere appendage of tho military chieftain
who is elevated to power in the name of the
Presidency. Bui he never will leave the Presi
dential Mansion as long as he lives. I have
nothing to say against him personally ; I have
no intention of derogating from his great mer
its as a soldier, and I have no desire to tarnish
any of the laurels which he won in the ser
vices that be gave to the country during the
late war. But t have just ns little design of
surrendering absolute power into tho hands
of any man, no matter how illustrious he may
have mado his name in the great war.”
Startling Figures.
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS A MINUTE.
Brick Pomeroy’s new paper, the New York
Democrat, says of the public debt and expend
itures :
Week in and week out, month after month,
and year after year ; through the busy hours
of the day and the silent watches of the night;
observing the sacred rest of no Christian Sab
bath, relieved by the joyous welcome and jo
cund shouts of no social, religious, or national
holiday ; steady as the measured, unceasing,
beating of the chronometer —
One Thousand Dollars a Minute!
For three consecutive years, which have
elapsed since the cessation of all armed hostil
ities between the States and sections of our
country, have been wrung from the industry
of the people to carry forward the chimeras of
the humanitarian “ party of great moral
ideas—
One thousand dollars a minutes !
No rest ! No intermission !
It is truly appalling! And this only for
current expenses and interest on the public
debt.
Interest did we say ? It does not pay the
interest! The debt goes on increasing.
And such a debt! Its magnitude is almost
beyond the power of human comprehension !

usurpation, together with their wasteful profli

Not Discouraged bv Traitors. —There
is no good reason to despair of the Democratic
party achieving Presidential election. The
ratio of increase which it has maintained since
its reorganization, will, if continued, crown it
next month with victory. The good work goes
bravely on, and with wondrous rapidity.—
Rarely before was there revolution in popular
sentiment so complete that gained ground so
fast. If Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana have
gone against us, their votes, as compared with
those of former years, where there was a fair
trial of party strength, have shown vast Demo
cratic gains, and such a growing Democratic
sentiment as may give ns not only those States
next month, but such as may bring us actual
triumph in the Presidential contest. Under
the circumstances, these gains, and not the
general rosult of the election are to be regard
ed as the correct indication of what is to be
the issue of the Presidential election. As we
have said, the old rules fur foretelling the issuo
of a national contest, which, indeed, were nev
er infallible, most give avrny before the extra
ordinary and abnormal political situation of
the country.— Buffalo Courier, Oct. 16th.

Disturbance at New Orlearts.
A Dispatch from New Orleans, dated Oct. j
25th, gives the following account of a difficulty
in that city. “A number of clubs, both negro
and Democratic, wero parading the streets in
various parts of the city. A number of negro
clubs passed down St. Charles street, out to
Canal, very noisy nnd disorderly. The J ica
tjune states that the negro clubs abused and
insulted the white Democratic club, marching
in their rear, and that the first shot firsd eaine
lrom the colored club, wounding slightly one
white named Richardson. At all events a
general fight began on Canal street, hetweei
Carondelet and Baronne, in which a number of
shots were fired. The fight continued for three
blocks, when the negroes fled. Two negroes
were killed between Baronne and Dryade
streets, on Canal, one dangerously wounded ;
one negro bov was crushed to death under foot;
another negro killed on the Corner of Canal
and Basin streets ; one or two farther out on
Canal. About midnight scattered firing was
heard in all directions. No white men were
killed on Canal street, though several were
wounded and taken home hy tDeir friends. A
white man was shot and kilied while standing
quietly neat' a HCgro club room, on the corner
of Camp and Thalia streets. Another white
man was killed and horribly butchered with
an axe or hatchet on Melpomine street, hy
negroes. Oue white man was accidentally killed
by his own friends on St. Charles street;
Coroner Roach of the first District held eight
inquests this morning, three white and five
black. Another dead negro reported in the
2d District making nine fatal casualties.
Each of the white men kilied were over a
mile from the disturbance.
The disturbance began about 10 o’clock. At
11, Canal street was crowded with exeifed
whites who dispersed quietly when a squadron
of cavalry appeared on the scone.
The Unterrified Democracy.— The Lock
port Union says that since treachery has been
disposed of in the Democratic ranks, a general
feeling of confidence has been restored. We
can assure our friends in the country that all
is well. Democrats in the city were never in
better heart, or of sounder faith. The Demo
cratic party is purified of a hateful disease, and
stands to-day more firm and confident than
ever. The people are with u« without party
distinction. Let the watchword be justice—
equal rights.

Henry Clay's Cane.— Thin interesting re
lic of the great Commoner, now sacredly
treasured, is one of the rarest combinations of
artistic skill and historic association that we
have ever seen. The stuff is of live oak, cut
from a tree that overshadowed the tomb of the
immortal Cicero; the head is made of verd-an
tique, obtained from the house of the great
Columbus at Genoa; it i3 octagon-shaped, and
ornamented with exquisite medallions of those
two famous orators of ancient and modern
times—Rome's Cicero and America’s C!av.
The medallion of Cicero is modeled after the
celebrated bust in the gallery at Florence; that
of Clay after the bust by the sculptor, Joel T.
Hart, who presented the cane to Mr. Clay
through Col. Warren Grigsby, who brought j
it from Europe. It subsequently came into the j

A persin was picturing to an old sinner J|
j upon his death bed the glory's (bat awaited j
j him if he would repent. He promised him, j

said the dying man, “if there is anything I ]
i have a horror of, ‘tis of being an angel, siting 1
| on a damp cloud, picking a harp in the mot®- q
