Already political tricksters and in
triguers, calling themselves Demo
crats, are at work to weaken the
democracy preparatory to auother
Waterloo defeat in 1^70. A recent
tiuniber of the New York Herald,
which is about as reliable, politically,
•s “Old Probabilities” is when he
misses in his calculations as to the
weather, contained a long editorial to
the effect tnat Gov. Hendricks, of
Indiana, had made a visit to U ash
ington for the purpose of a reconnois-
Bance in reference to the future
Course of the Democratic party, his
programme being the abandonment
end dissolution of the Democratic
organization name and all, and the
Substitution of a new Liberal party,
With a new name, “on the living is
sues of the day.”
The same paper states tl at the
argument said to be advanced by Mr.
Hendricks in favor of the proposed
new departure is that a new party,
Which shall have for its platform
such conservative and conciliatory
declarations of principles as will at
tract to its support all classes who
*re opposed to the dominant party
may easily secure a victory in the
next Congress, the elections for
which will occur in that low-water
interval of “public excitement when
the opposents of the party in power
arc always more or less successful.
In support of this movem> nt, as it
is called, the Chicago Tribune, a
leading Liberal Republican supporter
Ot the Cincinnati and Baltimore
Coalition in the late Presidential
campaign, contends that the Demo
cratic party is defunct—that it no
longer otTers auy inducements to the
people; that they have no confidence
in it; that its record is bad; that it is
in that stage of dry rot which crum
bles at every blow; that with every
advantage in its favor it can do noth
ing; that they who are attempting to
revive this party, which is incapable
of motion or effort of any kind, “are
only galvanizing a dead body into an
artificial show of life.”
We have four points to make in
' regard to the information given
above, and then we will conclude this
article, viz:
1. Subsequent information is to
the effect that Gov. Hendricks did
not visit Washington for the purpose
stated by the Herald. At least a half
dozen Senators who conversed freely
with him state that he made no such
proposition while in Washington
2. We do not believe that Gov,
Hendricks, or any true Democrat
desires anything like a dissolution or
reconstruction of the Democratic
party, for the reason that the attempt
at Baltimore last year to force the
Democracy on a line of policy similar
to the one above indicated, was liter
ally and scornfuLy repudiated by the
Democracy everywhere, though many
of them voted for Greeley as the
“lesser evil” as between him and
Grant
3. The Chicago Tribune, which is
no less a Republican paper than it
ever was, is not to be taken as au
thority in regard to the existence of
the Democratic party; nor can it in
any way represent the true Democ
racy as to its vitality or its future
course.
fersouiun Democracy can we hope to
build up and sustain a party suffi
ciently strong to hurl from pober
the Centralists who are making slow
but certain approaches to the citadel
of Public Liberty, sapping and
mining Democratic opinions as they
advance.
Sl’IRlT Ot THE GEORGIA HR ESS.
Ill an article on the condition of
South Carolina under Radical rule,
as depicted in a description of the
Legislature of that State, by S. J.
Pike in a letter to the New York
Tribune, and in reply to an editorial
comment on Pike s letter by that
paper, iu which the question is asked,
How much of this is retribution and
how much purely accidental,” the
Macon Telegraph says it is neither
retribution nor accident, but that—
It is the coldest, crueDst, basest
design that w as ever forged in hearts
aflame with the fires of hate and ven
geance, and put in shape by brains
sharpened to a devilish ingenuity by
We have come to the conclusion, as
have most men, even the ultra Radi
cals, that our “colored brethren,” as
legislators, are not much of a success.
In the Louisiana Legislature scenes
occurred daily, which were toaridicu
lous to be called a farce, and was bur
lesqued and caricatured in Republi
can prints. To think that such men
are forced upon the people to make
laws for the regulation and well being
of society; places in other and better
days filled by our most intelligent
citizens, is too serious and palpable a
humbug to think of. In the Ar
kansas House of Representatives late
ly, two colored members, named
Adam Johnson and W. H. Forbush,
had a fight over the ownership of a
pistol, fortunately without any one
being injured, and two days later, the
aforesaid Forbush—

4. The New York Herald, a quasi
Republican paper, and the Chicago
Tribune, auother paper decidedly
Republican, but sailing under the
piratical flag of so-called Liberalism,
auu under which the Democracy
Were so egregiously deceived ana be
trayed last year, seem to be, the one
the expounder and the other the
champion of this new movement.
What we desire to say now is that
the Democracy should be well upon
their guard. These intriguers and
schemers are soon at work for the
purpose ot preparing another defeat
for us in 1876. The front of the
whole thing has the air of trickery
and delusion. It is solely auu wholly
iu the interest of Radicalism, and is
really Radicalism in disguise. No
prominent Democrat has made a
proposition of the sort, because they
would not dare to do so in the face
of the history of last year’s defeat.
Tne Democratic party must be
preserved in its entire integrity—in
its principles and its organization;
and the trading politicians, claiming
to be Democratic leaders, must go to
the rear, as their gene/alship iu the
last Presidential campaign proved
most conclusively iliat they are
neitner safe counselors or leaders to
he trusted. It is alone upon the
uishable desire to first
egrade, and then exter
minate, under form of law, a whole
people. Radical reconstruction meant
just this and nothing more, and it is
too late for the Tribune to ask such
questions. Its founder and conduc
tor i6 gone, but history has made up
his record, and that record puts a
burden of responsibility for this aw
ful crime upon his shoulders which
can never be shifted.
The Savannah News commenting
on the same subject, says:
Retribution! The infamous au
dacitv of such a pharasaical surmise
“fatigues llie indignation. 75 These
saintly hypocrites, of the higher law
school, who assume to direct the re
tributive punishments of Heaven,
should learn not to insult Almighty
justice. Retribution indeed! As
well might the red handed assassin,
or the midnight incendiary seek jus
tification for his crime on the plea of
retribution. Such language comes
well from the mouths ot those who
first betrayed, then devastated with
fire and sword the once noble State
of South Carolina, and, finally, after
plundering her unarmed and de
fenceless people of their substance,
turned them over to the tender mer
cies of an ignorant, besotted, semi
barbarian race, made more savage by
their own evil and malignant teach
ings and example.
Iu an article on the probable effect
of guano upon the coming crop, the
Savannah Advertiser thinks that—
In making calculations as to re
sults, admitting good seasons and
throwing out of the calculation all
disasters, it may be considered a full
estimate to allow to the lands upon
which fertilizers are used, a ba e to
two acres. A man must be a cotton
maniac of the most morbid Kind who
will buy high-priced manures
spread upon land that will produce
a bale of cotton to two acres without
their use.
The Savannah Republican in an
article in regard to Gov. Smith’s call
for a Convention of Governors, ex
presses the
—hope that the call of Gov. Smith
may meet with a cordial and ready
response from the distinguished gen
tlemen he has summoned to confer
ence, and with the coming month of
May stricter and closer bonds
amity and interest may reunite those
sisters, whom God and Nature have
joined, but w T ho have been kept asun
der by cunning contrivances of in
terested speculators.
The Albany News has not only en
deavored to demonstrate that tne
security offered in the uew Georgia
bonds is perfect, and the investment
the best ever ofiered by any State, but
has publicly and privately urged
monied men to step forward and take
up the loan. Continues the News:
We thought and still think that
the successful negotiation of the en
tire issue of $1,200,000 at par, will en
hance the equities involved in the
Bullock bond muddle; ana upon this
hypothesis suggested to—and urged _
—one having influence with the hold
ers of the condemned securities, to

chase oi t j..' new bonds, by the hold
ers of the invalidated bonds, at the
top figure paid by otnei persons, in
the event it became necessary io se

COOL IMPUDENCE.
Those who are acquainted with
Ben Butler, of New Orleans noto
riety, either personally or by reputa
tion, know him to be a man of un
bounded impudence.
One of his constituents away down
in Massachusetts lately wrote him a
letter calling on him to account for
his vote on the salary grabbing bill
and his pocketing five thousand dol
lars additional salary by virtue of that
bill which he was not entitled to‘
thereby defrauding the people out of
so much money. Ben with his usual
effrontery and impudence wrote his
constituent in reply, treating the
matter as a mere joke—a bagatelle,
that the whole sum required to pay
every member of Congress, and the
President too, their additional pay,
did not amount to over three cents
to each tax payer in the United
States, and enclosed in his letter three
cents, his correspondent’s share, prom
ising to do so each year as lone as he
lived. For cool impudence and
effrontery Ben Butler has uo equal.

ers from a point ot view far above the laflueuue o*
passion or prejudice, and in the statement 01 lacta.tu
which hb mainly confines his work, there is au el
hibitiou oi impartiality that toroids the question
whether this man who thus summarizes the histur*
of his country is from the North, Sotnh, Eastoi
West.

GENERAL FREMONT.
By a Jate cable dispatch we are ad
vised that Gen. Fremont has been
found guilty in Paris of swindling in
connection with the Ell Paso Rail
road, and also of wilful contempt of
Court, lor which he is sentenced to
five years imprisonment. Before the
finding of the Court, the gallant
General took French leave, and the
last we heard of him he was snugly
domiciled in New York. We sup
pose that the General does not think
that Paris is a healthy place for him
iust now. Fremont is shrewd.
General Willard Warner, be
fore the war, an ultra radical and
leader in the ranks of Ohio Radicals,
is now President of a new incorpora
tion, the Tecumseh iron Company,
in Cherokee county, Alabama.—
Among the incorporators is another
Ohioan, Judge William B. oods,
formerly Speaker of the Ohio House
ot Representatives. Some men now-
a-days turn tne.’r politics to profitable
account. Warner is one cf Miem.

A Contemplated Strike.
For some days past a contmplated
“strike” among some of the employees
of the Western & Atlantic Railroad,
working at the shop’s in this city, has
been talked of. It was underarood that
the strike was to have been made yester
day. The officials of the road get-ing
wind of the matter, prevented it by in
creasing the waees o' the men, end l^o
by relea-ing them from effects of siguiDg
the contract releasing the road of all re
sponsibility for damages or suit, m the
event auy injury was sustained by the
signer, while in the employ of the
company. We are glad that the matter
terminated so satisfactory to all inter-
esed.
Tile Healer.
That “the pioof of the pu ’dine is in
the eating,” is an adage applying to phy
sicians ;is well i;,- to cooks. Success is
the final touchstone of merit, aud by this
test, rather than by diplomas nr gradnate
certilicates, though of these he has
abundance,) is that Dr. Jones desires
to be judged. He who renovates the sick,
heals the diseased, and restores to vigor
ous health the ailing invalid, can afford
to point to his cures, as the Roman mat
ron did to her children, and say, the: e
are my best and proudest diplomas.
Medicine is the most stagnant of all pro
fessions, save, perhaps, the clerical, and
a debt of gratitude is due to the fearless
•:nd skilled physician who dares to step
ouiaide the deeply worn tract of dull,
feeble routine, and use all the elastic and
marvelous resources of the new age, in
the gr-md combat with human disease.
As the soldier eschews the stone ax and
sling in fwor of the sword and bayonet
au. 1 breech-loader, so should the live
physiciau pursue an analagous course.
This is the method pursued by Dr.
Jones, and hence his gr at and growing
success.
LT. Jones has been persuaded .< re
main at the Kimball House, in this city,
until the tenth of May, wh:ch closes his
practice m Georgia. Ou Ins way to New
York, he will practice at be Stanton
House, Chattanooga, Ttnnessee, from
the 10th to the 13th of May.

book commencing with the chapter containing an 1

chapters tnrough to the beginning of the current I

unvarnished, lively picture of the tremendous agi-1

two decades of her history.
All the prominent occurrences, civil an rnili. ”, I
of the war between tue States, are sketches in rap:., |

terse, pure, gntceiul and strong He makes nu see' in
