TILDEin, OF NEW YORK. FOR VICE PRESIDENT. THOS. A. HENDRICKS OF INDIANA. State Ticket. FOR GOVERNOR. ALFRED H. COLQUITT, OF DEKALB. FOR CONGRESS, 7TII DISTRICT. W. H. PELTON. OF BARTOW. —— . Hill and Felton, We do really think that the people of Chcrok°e county are under obligations to these two distinguished gentlemen for the interest they have taken in t!io<e enterpris e's which, if sucoesslul, will increase, in a short time, the taxable property of the conn- ! tv at least two-fold. We refer to the .Mari etta and Murphy Railroad, and the naviga tion of the Etowah river. They have each taken stock in the railroad, and are doing all they can to have it completed ; and the navigation of our river is a pet scheme of Dr. Felton. What Georgian is not proud of such representatives in Congress? —c M. S. Pad* n. - We intended to notice last week the with drawal of Mr. Paden from the nee for rep resentative, but failed to do so for the want I of fip-tce. We take this occasion to say ) Ilia* Mr. Paden has many warm friends in 1 the county, who would have supported him gladly, and who regret that he thought it best to retire from the unpleisrint contest. The time will soon come we fear, when men of modesty and sensibili'y like Mr- Paden. Will be hard to indue to either seek ox to accept office. He is a good man and a useful citizen, and we thick his repug nance to politic.J strife is an cvi fence of lioth good sense and good taste. There are still other good men in the ti Id, and we hope the u isf.-t uid the best, will be our rep- ( sentative in the legi-lature Tf’* “Youi'g '*p’»m< ra!" Vs. the “Young ’J’os-uim.” i Dr Felton and Col. Dabney mid in debate nt Calhoun the other day. Fidton spoke i first, and in his speech r- felled to his nine ; —mouths service in Ocngress to prove th t he was a true Democrat. Col Dabney in i plying, said that a nine months Democrat t as 100 yopng, and Felton should >e rocked in the cradle and wear baby clothes awhile logger. Dr. Fel on r joined.by saying that he hail never cast any but a Democratic V'’fo, and asked Go! D. if he could say as much. He said h had gone ’possum hunt* i g when u boy, and h id discovered that the old female’pessi’in had a pocket in h r side where she can ied hei tender offspring. < ol Dabney i lain.i d he “organized De mocracy” as his ‘in tinniy,’ had hold on one of/Uie teals, and dung toil with tin yielding tenacity, a.id ..iway» when expos ed todan-’-or leaps inte hi- “nvernn peck el for safety. A big laugh, il is .- till, came in at two p <».. lae occ si >n. •“ 0- Another M<nh>fd story Spoiled! The Ail mln pa; ers, the Cuter vide Ex prens, and even the Albany .Vi a's have been making a gie.'t ado cone ruing Dr Fell n’s prop >td'ion to lay Ids claims before the people ot the l)i*tri- t ala primary ehelion. They have drclar- d that the proposi’ion was suggested to Dr F< lion by Maj.

Editor Georgian: As there is a misun derstanding resting upon the minds of some of the people as regards my being a dele gate to the Congressional convention which met at Calhoun two years ago, I wish to say that I was not a delegate to said con vention, but only went as an alternate, and did m>t nor could not participate, as Dr. J. 11. Speir and.l. _M. McAfee, the regular del egates, were both present. Respectfully, J. B. Richards. it f million wanted. What gentleman in Cartersville is mak ing himself conspicuous in opposing Dr. Felton, and notorious in adyoeating “or gan’zition and harmony” who a little more lhar.ftwo years ago, wrote several letters to his friend in deff rent p rtsofthe dis'rict, I ci cpi ting what thev thought Ids chance I . . i would be as an indepeiulcnt c<irnlulnte tor | congress against C.>l.

This is 1 rgelv dm* to the fact that the busim ss ol emigre ss is re ally done most'y in co nmittees, and tradi tion, stronger than law, regulates p>s - (tons on committee s m .inly by li-ngln of ser vice But in addi ion to ti is cause, the training of even one ses--ton of actu.at work is. f great advantage, and no district ought lightly '<> Rs sc it from tiny wnim as to the “claims” of loc dity or | ersons. —At.

The above cx'racts contains much good sense and sound logic, and the argument furnishi s one of the s’rongest of reasons) why Dr Felton should be returned to Con i gr. ss, the opposition of the Albiuta prt»x \ to the contrary, not withstanding.

A Wool Un. > Our Fosltimi. As some of Dr. Felton’s opponents com plain because of our umompiumisiug sup port of that gentleman, since Cols. Sharp and Dowpla our late associates are opposed lo his re-election, we hopethe eg utleimm who are both high-min led and uonciaUile, will do us the justice to s’atc in tlies cbl unm, the substance < t a conversation we had upon this subject last spring, when we entered into our copartnership. We think a s atement from llu-m will show that we were then an ar lent supporter of Dr F-1- ton, and that ourc-iurse now is neither ar bitrary nor inconsistent Backed Out. The proportion for a primary election ■ in October, was wall received by tie At i I lanta Constitution and other pap- rs frics<d ,J ly to democra i.: harmony al fl -I, but we believe they have all be- • came suddenly frightened at the proposi tion and have open d th ir fire upon Dr. i Felton all along the Lnc. We can’t imag ine what they could 10-e by accepting the . proposition, for it is reasonable to presume .h it tho e who would end >rse F- 1 on at the primary election, will vote for him any how at ’.he November election, nod the lov ers of harmony, by n fusing to go into a ' primary election can on y hope to delay a knowledge oflhe final res- 11. Editorial Notes. Ex-Gov. Seymour of New York utterly refuses to accept the nomination lor Gov ernor again. Friends fn-m Bartow inform us that that county will give as large a majority for Felton as before. Felton’s majoiity in Cherokee county at the approachmg eLction, is estimated, at fiom 1,000 to 1,500. M E hear cheering new s from Haral-on. It is said that a large maj rity ot the peo ple ol that county arc for Felton. Dr Paul Favor has been nominated for reprasentalive in Fayette county. 1 In most oflhe counties hsk favor* ot the lag:,, laturc, but Fayette it seem propo-.es to st. ' it one. “Slii’ery Dick” Whitely is the Ruli ;e.l candidate for congress in the 2nd dis trict, Billy Goodwin in the 7th. Their names should be changed to li’acldy and loadicin. The Con-litution siys: “A large num- I her of Mud-lrug associations tor Hit promo tion of everything are now in sesrion.’ I We suppose those associations will accom ' phsh as much good, at lea>t, as certain packed conventions that have bcin held o! late. Beast Butler is a candidate for Con gress ag in. We think it would suit him b< tt< r to engage in the Indian war, as many helpless women ami childr. n arc otten loiiml amongst the imliuns, and tin y \eji r uly have a good many trinkets of one son and another. The colord people of Cartersville met ’ the other day to organize a R< publican 1 club. Quite a crowd gathered at Hie place ippointed tor the meeting and some curi ms observer noti ing that each one was armed with a large club, a-kvd what il meant.. “Why,” replied one of the party “it’s a club meet'no !” The Cartersville Express thinks that if the radical party in this di.-trict has any "manhood’’ about them ih-it they will kiep a candidate I r congress i;> the field 1 * “A fvliow feeling inakxs one wonder.>ll“ kind." P< riiaps you would do wa ll to consol d.te : your op|x>sition, and take down either C>-1. Dabney or Goodwin. What violent enemies of Dr. Felton w< re caught in a room with Biily Goolwinin Cartersville the other day, j i*t laforedie latter gentleman announced hims II a can ! didate f>r congress ? Who encouraged Irin ■ ito come out? And whose candi late is he? i Truly “a drowning man will cilch at a -Daw .” That’s “organiz..ti<Hi” with a ven ,genccl The 4ih day of October next will lie I election day tor Governor and tnem in> to the Legi-lature.

Dowda. replied “No, but then was no “< xcitemcnt created over the mat tci.” We bought Col Dow as int> nst n the paper and published a synopsis of Di Felton’s speech.
