AUUUKNS TO l'Ulfi CULOHBO PBUPLB.
We invite the attention of our colored
citizens to the address from a committee of
the South Caroliua Democratic Convention,
which we pablish in another oolumn, and
which is not leas applicable to the col
ored people of Georgia and the entire South
Ihan to those of South Carolina. This docu
ment, in a plain and concise manner, sp
important truths.that cannot fail to impress
the minds of all sensible, reflecting colored
men, —who should reflect that though in
some sections of the country, by tending
themselves to the selfish purposes of base
white men, aliens and traitors to their own
race, they may enjoy a temporary but fruit
less triumph, the day ia not far distant when
they will need the sympathy and protection
of the white men of the South, with whom
their lot has been cast, and with whom they
must live in harmony and concord or in an
tagonism and strife, which can only lead to
mutual mislortun* and their final ruin.
By their votes in the coming election the
colored men of the Sontb may aid to place
unprincipled men, who are at heart ene
mies both to them and us, temporarily in
power—they may thus aid to inflict lasting
disgrace and present misfortune upon the
State, to bring still greater calamity upon
our already impoverished people—they may
thus alienate themselves from the lrue white
’ -a’is ri.yo^ulry, whose interest it is to
■tut* *» r u r j,. But when they have served
‘>j B „i their begniiers—when their
pret^Ma friends have reaped the fr aits of
their lalsehood and perfidy, they .will heart
lessly abandon the colored matt to his fate;
and should collision come, will be the first
to crush him.
We wish that this address could be read to
every honest colored man aud woman in
Georgia.
rsBNKttAL ORDBRS, No. Ȥ.
Our readers are referred - *to another order
from Gen. Meade, which we publish this morn
iug. It will be seen by ibis order that the
municipal officers are not to be elected at the
election which commences on. the 20th inst.
The order forbids the using of improper
means to compel laborers to leav* their work
to attend political meetings, also the assemblage
of armed bodies, and the carrying of arms,
either co ;ealed or otherwise, at or in the
vicinity of the polls on election days.
These are wholesome regulations, and we
trust for the security of the public peace, they
will be rigidly enforced.
Remember.—That -challenges at the polls
will be permitted for only two causes—identity
• And non-residenee. If a voter who Is known
to be under age presents himself there, it
too late then to challenge. If you know such
an one, black or white, who has registered, go
to the registrar and - make oath to that fact,
and have his name stricken from ihe lists,
will be too late when he comes to vote. Gen.
Meade has so decided.

the premises that morning by Mr. Stanton.
They were there ready to note evtry word,
material or immaterial, even to the morning

Bat the sequel Thomas tells. After Staulou
and Thomas left the select company, rn
whose presence tho former had maiutaiuc-d a
grand dignity, they went into an adjoining
room, where Ihe great War Secretary
changed bis demeanor and assumed a fain it
iarily with which he would not be credited.
He took the General cordially by the arui,-
and passed his bands through his thin grey
locks and said, •* General, let us take a

he had the power to remove Stautou, t ul
that they also advised his removal. It will

tee here, but it has no weight. Justice Davis
of the Supreme Court was held to have
some pretensions; but as he concurred
io the cowardly postponement of the
McCardle case, be is entirely ignored,
as be ought to be. Of the “live” candi
dates Mr. Pendletoo is-ertaiuly the most
prominent, but bis chances are actually the
woibi. Hi* friends have worked like bea
vers and secured the end< trseoient ol Severn!

first vote will be his largest, ior bis is posi
tive and not contingent strength. Pt-rso
hilly he is the most popular, politically, not
one in the land is sounder, and he is a pa
triot, unfortunately the impression grows
that be cannot win the race. 'It cannot be
denied that bis affiliation with the “peace
Democrats” daring the war renders him ob
OQXtous to the soldiers, and as several bun-
dphd thousand of this class will deposit the
ballots, it is clearly inexpedient to select as
the Democratic standard bearer any one
who weald alienate that vote, or cause a
risk of it* alienation. The perils of the
country will not allow the Democracy to bo
beaten, and hence those who conceive there
is danger in choosing Pendleton, are cast iug
about for a suitable person, one who cau
combine popularity with principle. These
qualities Gen. Dix is thought not to pos
sess, although Governor Seymour is said
io indorse him. Mr. Heudriuks is h

Thk Ko Klux Klan and the Loval
Leagues.—The New York Herald, in com
tueuting upon General Meade’s recent order
for the suppression of the Ka Klux Klan^
thinks the General ought not to exercise bis
power upon that organization alone. “He
must vigorously suppress the secret ‘Loyal
Leagues’ ol negroes; tor they are equally, if
not more pernicious iu tbeir influences than
the white men’s society. The arrogance of
the negroes and their attempts to reduce the
whites of the South to political vassalage by
means i.f their ‘Loy»l Leagues,’ aud the
many outrages that have been committed by
these same Leagues, are equally as danger
ous to the peace aud safety of society as are
the retaliatory actions of the *Ku Klux
Klau.’ There should be no discrimination
or impartiality between the two races In the
South. Any attempt to suppress the *Ku
Klux Klan,’ without attempting the same
with the ‘Loyal Leagues,’ will be a positive
step towards placing the unhappy whites of
the South yet further in the power of their
negro antagonists; and the exasperatioo
which will necessarily follow such a one
sided policy will nfrt fail to precipitate a
conflict. Suppress secret organizations by
all means, hut let tbs suppression apply to
all classes and races.”

THK NKUfttO CONSTITUTION.
To ado[>t or reject tbis-compdnpd of vil-
tiioy and stupidity, will t>e the business of
the people of Georgia, at the approaching
election. The true meaning of this Negro
Constitution, its ultimate aualysis, is the dis
solution of all the bands of society, and to
place in the hands ol black barbarism the
whole property of the State, private and
public. It provides against the collectioqfof
illl debts contracted before 1865, and secures
the whole property of the State against all
private claims iu the future. The Stale taxes
however, were very cunningly excepted from
bis general exemption. To exempt taxes
from payment would deprive r.tguea ot all
the motives of thieving. And so, taxes
must be paid, to form a fund for tbieviog.
Bui private debts need not be paid, for in
tii,-it case, no possible benefit could accrue to
the rogues.
That the Negro Constitution has exempt-
jd the whole property ot the State from the
claims of creditors, is apparent from the
following statement:
The wh'de taxable properly of the State
is about $200,000,000 (two hundred 4&illioa
of dollars.) ,.
Tee whole number of persons, 'oisck sod
white, owning property. Is About one ban-
dre-d tbousar-d,?-
Tbit gives $20,000 as the amount ot each
person’s propel ty.
But the proposed C>institution exempts
three thousand dollars from attACbWAfit
trotn debts due individuals. In the words of
the Homestead law, two thousand dollars of
real estate, and one thousand dollars of
personal property are not subject to attach
ment, for private debts.
It tha* appears, that there are to be, ac
cording to this Constitution, three hundred
millions dollars of property in the State of
Georgia, secure from all liability for debt;
whilst all the taxable property of the JM*t#
on the Comptroller's books, only amoont to
two huudred millions of dollar*, This liberal
legislation, like “vaulting- ambition” leaps
on the other side of the saddle. It Is true,
there are not three hundred millions dollars
of property in the Btate, just now; bot
there may be, you know, and thus the Cotl-
veuiion will have a claim on the gratitude of
future gonetntioua.^ 3 UiviiLdfi.ll lIKc f,
it may be objeoted that all imUrigual
property will be uot exempt from actions
