THEKK IS STILL HOPE.
If any have been discouraged Irom putting
forth their exertions to save Chatham county
from the disgrace of a Radical tiiumph un
der the belief that such efforts would be
hopeless and unavailing, let them take cour
age from I he results of yesterday, both here
and in other portions of the Slate, from
which we have telegraphic advices. Ii is
evident that the people have been thorough
ly aroused to the momentous import auce of
the crisis that is upou us, and that
they are determined to ruscue the State
from Radical thraldom and disgrace.
The nows from Augusta, Macon, Atlan
ta, Cherokee aud the Southwest sounds
no uote of despair. On the contrary.
it is .calculated to nerve our efforts and as
sure our hopes of success. All is not yet
lost. And in the two days of the election
which remains, if our Conservative citizens
of all classes, rich and poor, while uud col
ored, will but do their duty—exert every
effort, and liring.ewery means in their power
to bear, our deliverance and victory will
send a thrill of joy throughout our S uitireru
laud aud cause the hearts of good uud true
men to be glad everywhere. To the polls
again to-day!

How a Bdlloceite was Converted.—The
Atlanta Intelligeuter gives us a report of a
chicken tight which took place at Caihouu,
Georgia, when ex-Gov. Brown spoke at that
place. It appears that a Federal soldier had
a rooster of good game qualities, aud named
it Gen. Gordon. A citizen of Calhoun had
another that he wanted to see tried, and
beiug a stioug Bullock man, uamed bis Bol
lock. The chickeus was pul to fighting, and
the Gordon chicken whipped out the Bul
lock ia two miuutes and a half. This citi
zen of Calhoun is now a strong Democrat,
and ha9 been advocatiug Gordou’s election
from tnat day to this.
THS CITIZENS’ DUTY 111 THE PKK-
VENT CRISIS*
Nelson rendered a few words immortal,
when on the morning of the battle of Trafal
gar, be signalled to bis fleet—“England ex
pects every man to Jo his duty.” AH do not
realise how many noble sentiments are em
bodied in this brief sentence. “England!”
that is to say *'your country” wherever sit
uated, or called by whatever Dame, I has in
voking the spirit of loyalty and patriotism.
Next, the words “every man,” sending the
summons home to each heart and each con
science and branding as a recreant and cow
ard every one who should aspire to accept it
as a personal command to himself; finally
the phrase “his duty,” his duty meaning the
duty of the man himself, without regard to
the conduct of others, without fear of conse
quences, without reference to probabilities
or results, without calculations as to tutcess
or defeat. How many battles would have
been lost ? How many places in the world’s
history which now blaze with the
golden and crimson glories of victory, would
not be blank or else dark records of shat
tered and dejected hopes, if generals aud
soldiers instead of performing the duty be
fore them, had quailed before the supposed
superiority ia numbers of the enemy and re
fused to fight because they were not sure
to win!
This is a lesson from a man of war—Eng
land’s greatest naval hero. Hear another
from a man of peace, one of England’s great
est scholars.
Addisou says, through the impersonation
of one of the characters in the tragedy of
Cato—
••’Tla unt in mortals to coaimind nic es.
But we'll do more, SeinprouiuH, we’ll deserve it.* *
These verses impress with truth, the real
issue between conscientiousness and expe
diency, between moral courage and moral
timidity, upon a great occision like- the
present, aud we implore our citizens to pon
der them well, aud to act upon their prin
ciples. To deserve success is a higher and
nobler positiou for honoiable men than to
gain success without merit. Success cannot
Le attained in any cause, and is not deserved
without honest and faithful exertion.
What, then, is the obligation resting upon
every citizen in our preseut hour of peril ?
It is to do his duty at the call of bis
country—that country is the Slate of Georgia.
Many citizens of Savunuah are neglecting
this solemn aud sacred obligation by absenting
themselves from the polls, aud by declining
to vote at lire present election for the reason
that in their opinion, no acliou of theirs can
coulrol or change the pre-arranged result.
Are you sure that such is the case ? What
fuels in the gloomy and mysterious political
records of the times cao you find brought
clearly enough to light to euublu you to
come to any conclusion at all upon”the sub
ject ? Above all, what right have you
citizeusand property holders, and protectors
of worneu aud children to act upon your
foregone conclusions aud tamely surrender
your principles because you choose to tear
that in case you dare to as-iist them you will
be overpowered and detealeJ ! Many years
ago a Governor of Massachusetts was elected
by a majority of one vote.
It the Radical party shall succeed in this
election, what will become of your property,
ypur real estate, your railroads aud city
bonds? Where will you shelter your wives
and children? Will you have means enough
left to place them even under the mild (?)
protection of King Theodoras of Abyssinia.
In God’s name, wbat will you, wbat can you
do? Leave the past alone, and, as all brave
men do, look into the future.
Do not be influenced by the conduct of
others, but act according to the dictates of
your own consciences, aud then you will be
certain to be right.

Atlanta, April 21.—There w
tnrbance at the election. -Much enthusiasm
prevailing in both parties. U is supposed
that 2,GOO votes were polled in two days,
and it is believt d that Gordon is 500 votes
ahead.
The Falton County Democratic Club have
issued the following circular:
“Democrats of Fulton County send greet
ing to the pe pie of Georgia that Gordon is
carrying i.ll before him here, and will roll
up 1,000 majority in the county.
(Higued,) J. F. Adexandeb,
Cnaiiman Democratic Committee.”
Columbus, April 21 —Everything quiet.
The Radicals are desperate and tricky. 798
votes were pollid to-day, mostly negroes,
many of them for the Democratic ticket.
The Democrats are in high spirits.
Couriers from the Counties of Chattahoo
chee, Murielta, Stewart, and Randolph
bring in the most cheering news.
Augusta, April 21.—Tne election is pro
gressing without any serious disturbance.
The blacks »b >ui the polls are electioneering

the polls to preserve order.
Macon, April 21.—The total vote to the
close of the polls to-day was 3 000. The
Democrats gained largely in to-day’s voting.
Acconuts from 8ombwestern Georgia,
"where the negroes are largely in.tbe ascend

ere sowing at
; told them thi
that they wei . _ _
South. We told them that the measures they
were adopting would inevitably result in a con-
fliet between the two races. Heedli as of the
solemn lessons which history teaches, and ut
terly regardless of the laws of nature, our Rad
ical rulers forced their policy upon the Sooth,
aud already are we beginning to see what the
coneeduences will be. From all appearances a
war of races in that .unhappy section of the
Union is rapidly approaching. The first seeds
of distrust were sown by the Freedmen’s Bu
reau, which, although under the patronage of
the general government, was most shamefully
used by the Radical party to poison the minds
of the ignorant blacks against their former
blasters. At a later day, the Bureau not beiug
as secret a concern as was desirable, Loyal
League clubs were formed from the Potomac to
the Rio Grande. These organizations were
composed almost entirely of negroes; they
became so powerful in numbers and political
importance, that eventually their members
assumed to be the rulers and masters of the
whites. So long as they were permitted to
display their arrogance and assert their usurped
power, so long was the danger averted. But
the logical result of two years of despotism lies
now before us in the fact of a counter action
on the part of the whites. From one end of the
South to the other a new secret society, known
as the “ Ku-Klux Klan ” has been organized in
opposition to universal negro suffrage and
negro rule. The aims and purposes of the
association are not concealed from the world.
The Southern whites have declared that they
will no longer tolerate a policy which sinto
them into servitude, and makes a semi-barbar
ous race their masters. Ihu9-we now have two
intensely hostile elements organized and organ
izing, and facing each other— the Ku-Klux-Klan,
or secret society of white men, on the one hand,
and the Loyal League Association, or secret
society ol negroes, on the other, each strug
gling for supremacy, and each of a race alien in
civilization and ideas to the other. How long
will it be before such antagonistic elements pass
the bounds of political warfare and engage in a
contest of bloodshed and desolation ?

A Mr. Glenn has been actually driven out
of the State Assembly of New York, for
having repeated an offer of money, made to
him on behalf of a fellow member, for bis
vote. After being badgered and bullied tor
n fortnight by those whom his action threat
ened to implicate, he has acinuliy resigned
his seat Not content with his departure,
another member moved that he be expelled.
This is the Assembly’s way n( vindicating
its character. A more shameless exhibition,
says the Times, never was seen in any legis
lative body. They will now enforce, with
redoubled rigor, the law they s ill keep on
the statute book, to send to the State prison
any witness who shall testify against a mem
ber accused of bribery.
Cardinal Culllen, in a recent pastoral ad
dress upon Ireland, says “that her popula
tion has been lessened by millions; her trade
is bad; aDd within a short period four hun
dred thousand houses have disappeared ”
He continues: “While the most abject pov
erty abound, we have beeo obliged to pay
to other countries about thirty millions of
money in the five years ending in 1866, for
the necessaries of life which formerly were
abundantly supplied by our fruitful soil.”
Ths Future.—The future of our country
under Rudical rule is ably discussed in on ar
ticle in the New York Herald, which con
eludes as follows: “That our next Presi
dent, if Mr. J >hnsOn be removed, must be
either a mere tool of Congress, recording its
will and depending on its pleasure for his
continuance in power, or a tyrant who will
seize the helm himself and dominate both
Congress and the country, is the clearest
fact of the present hour. He must be either
tool or tyraot.—there can be no alternative;
for the constitutional authority of Abe Presi
dent will be stricken down with a mortal
blow if the present Jac »biu plot for Mr.
Johnson’s removal shall prove successful.—
It will be no ignominious place in history
that Andrew Johnson will occupy as the last
constitutional President of the United States
—one who fought the good fight, but was de
feated in it; oue who had tl»e misfortuue to
be Chief Magistrate at a time when the
American people were resolved op >n chang
ing their foirn of government.”
Things in Tennessee.—The Knoxville
Whig, speaking of the “Klan” and other
“rebel” demonstrations in that Slate, says
‘‘oo soon as Johnson vacates the While
House, the Governor expecte to have regu
lars stationed in various counties of Middle
and West Tennessee, where be proposes to
keep them until the disloyal, bush-whack

THE ELECllUN.
We are rejoiced to be able to report a
much belter leeliug in our community as to
the progress and result of the election, than
existed at the close of tbe polls on yester
day. “Hope elevates and joy brightens our
crest.” (to Monday the Radicals had every
thing their own way. Not more than
twenty-five c.n-ervative whites attended
and worked for the country. But during the
whole of yesterday the whites turned out
and rtmaiued at the Court House, aud many
assisted by some colored conservatives, “did
yeoman’s service.’’ On Monday the colored
Conservatives weie driveu from the polls
with threats and blows whenever they dared
to 6peak or vote, as they chose. But ou
yesterday the darkness of the picture beiug
relieved by the large white element, comfort
and countenance were given to our colored
friende, aud tbe result wa9 very different.
Some of the violent Radical negroes u -
derlook to intimidate and abu«e their
own color of conservative views, but
the game was in every iustauce short lived.
Those who were present will remember that
these outrages were attempted in the morn-
iug, but tbe rebuke by both the military aud
our own police was so instantaneous and ef
fectual that the afteruoou passed off without
any disturbance.
But while there is much improvement on
the result of the first day, there is yet a
Herculean labor before us. The Augean
•table is yet to be cleaned, aud. there is no
remedy but to pour tbe whole white male
population io one unbroken stream through
its ooisome portals.
Every man, young aud old, owes to his
family aud kiudred and neighbors a solemn
duty. It is to make the work of the next
two days (to day and to-morrow) one of
self-sacrifice. Lay ati lathe ordinary voca
tions of life—leave your counting rooms,
your offices, your counters, your anvilt|/
your plaoea, your gardens, and give your-
arms your energy and work to your cjuqtry,
God aud truth, aud if fall you must, you’ll
fall a blessed martyr. ■’
Be not discouraged by the suggestion that
it is impossible to carry Cuathaiu* county—
that the odds are against you. Remember
that we are sot struggling alone fox Chat-
Georgia is in the scale, aud it is a
matter of small moment should Chatham be
lost if Georgia can be redeemed. Even
though we may not get a majority in Chat
ham, we may, by reducing that majority,
achieve a triumph in the general result.
The encouragement given on yesterday by
the mere presence of the white citizens at tbe
polls was wonderful. Let there be no falling
off to day or to-morrow. The occasiou is too
aolemu lor trifling—too perilous for neglect
too momentous for comparison with our
usual duties. This is the duty of the day and
hour, and NO MAN. rich or poor, high or
low, bond or free, dare neglect it with iyipunity !
Work, work! white it is day; for, if we
neglect so great an opportunity, REMEM
BER, the night cometb, when in chains sind
slavery, and in helpless despair no man can
work.

The above extract, from
Herald, says the Charleston Mercury, is full erf
truth, although we think it is too fast in its
conclusion, that a war of races in the South is
inevitable. It is in error, also, in supposing
that the secret organization of the Ku-Klux-
Klan is generally prevalent in the S *uth. It is
unknown, we are satisfied, in South Carolma;
and excepting in Tennessee, where it origina
ted, can scarcely be said to be an organization
at all. The proper time for such organizations
has not yet arrived. The white race of the
South are now earnestly striving to prevent the
necessity of any such organizations by. defeating
the negro constitutions by which negro rule is
to be put over them. Until it is tested, whether
they will have this rule put over them, they
will endeavor to avoid all organizations looking
to its defeat by violence. But should they fail
in their efforts, and negro governments be put
over them, we doubt not but that every city,
town, village and neighborhood in the South
will have combinations of the white population
io protect themselves against negro rule. Our
owu impression, however, has ever been, that
Congressional reconstruction (or rather de
struction) for the Southern States will fail—
that is, that so many States will tail adopting
it as practically to defeat the object for which
it was put iqU> operation—the perpetuation of
the Radicals in power. Should it tail in Vir
ginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Texas and
Alabama, the people of the other Southern
States may well await the development of
events, through the next Presidential election.
But if the Radical policy is successful through
out the South, the Herald is perfectly right in
its inference—that a war of races is inevitable,
and we do not suppose that any intelligent
white man in the South or the North—Radioal
or Democrat—has now, or ever had any doubt
that this would be, and must be, the result of
such a policy. The idea that the white race ia
the South, v.i9tly superior in numbers to the
negroes, would allow the Southern States to be
ruled by them, is so silly and absurd, that no
sensible man could entertain it. The Radicals
Congress knew when they passed these
measures of reconstruction, that they would
institute by them, if successful, a war of races
in the South. They knew it, and they intended
it. The Southern people will strive to avoid it;
but when it becomes inevitable, they will accept
their fate, and meet it ’as becomes them. They
have no more fear of the rule of negroes than
of a herd of wild buffaloes from the prairies of
the West.

Terrific Storm at Macon.—The Macon
papers tell us of a very destructive thunder
storm which passed over that city on Thursday
morning la9t. We copy a paragraph relating
to it from th2 Telegraph :
‘ The Storm.—The rain storm yesterday
morning exceeded in violence anything known
to that venerable individual, ‘the oldest inhab
itant.’ The clouds appeared to open and pour
out their contents in sheets, and for hours to
gether, completely deluging this entire section.
Immense damage has been done to property In
the eity. We have heard it estimated at from
twenty-five to thirty thousand dollars. The
gardens and farms in this city are a complete
wreck. The streets are washed into gullies,
the sewers torn to pieces, brick walls and fenc
ing broken down, and other serious damage
done all over the city. All tbe railroads have
suffered seriously, except the Macon and West
ern, which escaped with the loss of a culvert in
the city. This is now our only rail communi
cation with the rest of mankind.”
Brick Pomebwt oh Garibaldi.—The fol
lowing letter from Garibaldi, says tbe La
Grume Democrat, dated Oaprera, March 16,
addressed to tbe American Minister to Fior
euce, has been published:
“ I hear frt.m my friends that Mr. Seward
has done me tbe honor to include toy name
among the agents of the government of the
f reat Republic. As I never bad tbe honor,
beg yon to request him to cause my name
to be removed. G. Garibaldi.”
Good for yon, Garibaldi. Goiseppe, thou
gay old itoman in red shirt and horse bfde
b >ots, thou bast doubtless done many mean
things daring thy varied experience in
soap boiling and Republic building, bat
thou wen not mean enough to be the paid

Guiseppe, old boy, we salute thee* Mty
thy jag of salad oil never run out, nor thy
supply of maooaroni never fail.
May revolutions bn plentier nor blackber
