THE EXPRESS. Cedartown, May; 0th. JNO. W. RADLEY Editor. The Express has a larger circu lation than any other newspaper published In the 38th Senatorial District The Fall Elections. The fall elections of 1878 promise to be tho most holly contested for many years past. They will forever decide the fate for weal or for woo of of tho Republican party. Tho Sen ate will bo Democratic in ’80, and if tho Democrats can just hold tho House the iinal victory will be assu red. But there is tho rub. Will the House bo Democratic? (treat fears are entertained by the lenders of our party that unless tho Democracy are united tho Republicans will gain tho day. Any one can tell you how closely tho Republicans stick together. They mny differ about the means but they all as a unit seek the same ond and they vote fora man advocating that end. Like a certain church we could name—there are no splits, no divisions when it comes to church government. Ho it is with the Re publican party The Democrats on the other hand are careless and unconcerned. They had better bo concerned and that at once. While our party is lazing and listlessly wandering about, the Re publicans are ut work. As at the outset, we say the next elections will be of all the most important. It will bo for supremacy. If wc fail to carry the House, then ■might we ns well give np the ghost. « What, then, is the next question ■that suggests itself. It is that we look around ns and as apart//, as tho Democratic party; select our enndi- -dale and vote for him. Don’t lot us have a split umongst ourselves. Let tthe Democrats be united. We know the feeling in this dis ci. Wp kuowitbat Dr. Felton has on elected over the regulujr nomi nee. We know that many Demo crats good and true voted for Dr. Fel- toif. The Doctor lias had a fair chanca. He has Berved ns now for two terms; cannot some one else be found in the district upon whom Democrats can unite, equally as good as he? Rotation in office proves ben eficial. Let a Democrat from some ether county besides Bartow run the race. Bartow has run tho thing long enough. Hlie has enjoyed the spoils of the monopoly loug enough. We venture to say that, leaving Dr. Feltoif out, she still would want to foist a Bartow man upon us. We write this with no special unfriend liness to Bartow county. That Dr. Felton has made a good congressman, no one will deny. That there are other men in the dist rict as good as he none can deny. But further: Cun not there be something brought about to re-unite the Democrats? Has there been anything wrong in our mode of nominations? Then let us correct it. Has there been any trickery shown ? Then let us abandon it. Concession is tho thing. We are striving for the same end, or should be so doing. Our aim is to wipe out Radicalism and its counterpart, Orantism, from the land. Then let 08 meet and oonsider. This should not resolve itself into a Felton fight, or who-ever-he-may-be fight. We should organize, re-unite, clasp hands, lot by-gones be by-gonos, and the dead past bury its dead, and re solve anew our journey to pursue to vote squarely on the Democratic tioket. We all must make conces sions. This is intended for the or ganized and the independents—most all of whom are Democrats. Now, as to the mode. If there be a con vention, let it be one of the people— of the Democrats. Leteaoh militia district be represented. Let the ptopile instruct their delegates. Let •aoh delegate know the wishes of .his constituents, and let him go to the convention and vote their senti ments. If a majority of the instruct ed delegates vote for Dr. Felton, then Felton is the man. If they vote Job Blaxck, then Blance will be the man, and so on. We will then bo a re-united party and will go forward, hand in hand, to a full realization of the joys and pleasures of a saved country in the near at hand future. We give these random thoughts for what they are worth. Wo would that our friends could fully realize the importance of the situation and the grave condition our country is What Does it Mean ?—Is the Constitution going the way of tho News and Commonwealth and Trib une ? It says: Wo never expect to see tho day when another Georgia district is car ried by an independent candidate.” If it is alive and kicking next No vember, tho probability is it will see three or four Congressmen of that ilk; and if it survives a brief period longer it iB quite possible it will see POLK COUNTY.

As in the past, so in the future, ths Express will support the nomi nee of the Democratic party. We shall, in a quiet way, do what we can in his behalf. We have friends who honestly differ with us. With these we have no quarrel. Wo ac cord every man the right to enter tain any opinions ho may see proper We do not propose to tear our but tons off during the campaign, for there aro other matters that should he treated of along from week to week. We state here that our col umns are open to any and every body. We will us readily admit con trary opinions to ours as favorable At the same time tho Ex press is an organized Democratic sheet, and will support the Demo cratic nominee, whoever he may be. The Ga. Press Association. We shall be absent for a few days in attendance upon the Georgia Press Association. The Doctors have had their fun; the Sunday Schools them j i nd the Churches theirs, and now it remains for weary and care worn knights of the quill to throw away care and feast upon the fat of tho land. Tho Convention met in Gaiii8ville yesterday. Excursions have been arranged to Greenvillo, S* C., Richmond, Va., perhaps Wash ington, D. C. and on their return, Gov. Brown “sets up” an excursion to Lookout mountain. Wo hope to have a jolly time and of the events along tho line we shall have more to say hereafter. «3T A nominee for Congress can b(; elected in November if the Dem ocrats of tho district will rally to bis support.

Beecher and Mrs. Tilton and her confession run so fust that it left her a whole length behind. It is astonishing how*theso scanduls do lly. We’ve bud enough of them. (Comtnuuicated.) Honor to Whom Honor Is Dno. The outside world usually know nothing c paratlvoly of what la going on and Is being accom plished In tho medical profession, Tho “busy man” of tho nineteenth century hasn't the time nor inclination to examine oven suporflclally its llterrture. Then It is not surpris ing that members of tho profession occasionally become famous while tho general public remain In almost perfect Ignorance of thnlr world-wide co- lebrlty. These truths apply to pome extent to a distinguished physician of our own section, Dr. Robert Unttoy. The European world 1ms enrolled his name among the great of his professlon-a profession which he loves with the forvor and warmth of a mother’s lovo for her offspring. Wo trust, then, thai the charge of invidious distinction will not bo alleged against ns of his own Immedi ate section for nddlng our feeble meed ol praise in this hasty notice of one who so eminently deserves tho plaudits of his countrymen. We^challcngo contradiction whf n wo assert that Dr. Battoy has made more reputation sinco the close of our late war than any rnembsr of tho Amer ican profession; and we, with equal confidence, declare that no member of tho medical profession across tho Atlantic has deue so much to advance tho science of medicine and ameliorate the suffer ings which flesh is heir to during tho past few years, aB has Dr. Battey. We have .recently read with great pleasure an exceedingly interesting bi ographical sketch of the “Life and Labors” of Dr. Battoy, .written by our beloved teacher, the vonera- blo Prof. Joseph A. Evo, of Augusta, Ga., and pub lished In tho Virginia Medical Monthly. Prof. Eve,the purest and V^blesl Roman of them all,” and the oldest teacher on this continent In his specialty—has faithfully collated and chronicled the labors or Dr. Battey. It might be Interesting, Instructive, to traco Dr. Battoy through his early career, as revolved In this article, from tho friendless and orphaned boy to tho “dry goods clerk” through his apprenticeship as a "drug clerk' to hie final triumph over all obstacles and difficul ties, emerging the eminent and distinguished pli sysian, hut space forbids. Dr, Battey’s discoveries, inventions and im provements In mcdiclue and surgery have been submitted to the criticism of tho Bavanin or tho medical world, and they have been pronounced “good.” Dr. Marion Sims, of New York, in the British Mpdlcal Journal for December, 1877, says: "Dr. Battey has own the honors, let him wear them.” While Dr. Battey has been a general practitioner of medicine during his entire profes sional life, we believe his great forte Is surgery. He has roost happily combined the judgment and erudition of a Gross, the steady nerve and artistic skill of a Pancoast, coupled with the boldness and fearloss intrepidity of a Valeutino Mott. Dr. Battey’s private and social.Ilfo Is os beauti ful as his public careor is great and brilliant. As gentle and modest In manners as a woman, he is easily approached by the younger members of his profession, and la ever happy to impart his knowl edge and lend bis experience for their advance ment. By his teal, indefatigable labor and earnest love for his profession ho has placed his name alongside of the greatost benefactors of tho med ical profession, where It can never fade nor die. The following graceful tribute we quote from Dr. Eve: "Dr. Battey fondly asseverates that tho science of medicine Is Indebted not so mnch to himself as to bis good wife who, by relieving him of all domestic care and anxieties, as well ashy her wise counsol, her loving help and hsrapprOvIng smiles, has constantly stimila(ed him to bis best endeavors.” ’‘ Manicys.

All doubts us to what this district will do may as well be uispellcd. All speculation as to tho defeat of our representa tive is so much idle talk. All at tempts to organize against him is like pitching straws against Un wind. Who will consent to ho sac rificed against him ?—Carter sville Express. The Rome Courier, the represent ative of tho rock-ribbed democracy, takes issue with the Express, affirm ing that any “regular,” wisely nomi nated man can carry the district against Felton or any other man. Wo are inclined to believe that the Express is right, and that the organ ization of the bulldozing regulars of the Seventh is lorever gone. Re publicans who supported Felton have this, at least, to comfort them. [Ocorqia Republican. Pianos. Organs. Nnw. 7 Oct. $137 I Nkw, 9 stops, 7. Nbw, 7,V Oct. $146 [ Nnw, 18 Stops, $78.
