Mrs. Felton’s Husband, “CIUzmi” Places Him on Alie Stand Again. Hon. Wm. H. Felton—Sir: Iu my lust letter I culled the attention cl the people of thia district to the startling fact that in the congression al election of 1810 the live counties which nave you a majority of 2,8S2 cast 2,309 more votes than there were polls within their borders, while the eight Dabney oounties cast 427 votes f llre-H»ml>oi*-*tl •'•‘heiY'fwllfl,' It was shown that this enormous fraud wus committed in the counties rendered the transportation of the re peating voter easy, while the adjoin ing state of Alabama offered a fruit ful yield to the foraging patriotism of y*ur eccentric friend. It further uppeares from the table copied into that letter from the comptroller geu- ral’s report, that you owe your elec tion to the negro vote. If we take from your aggregate vote of 13,209, your 3,900 colored votes, and con- trast the remainder with Dabney’s 10,407, wo cun very readily under stand why you four to denounce Mid* dlobrooks, who is trying to con vince the negroes that you and your friends will put them in the jury box, and refuse to rebuke that other in famous negro, who slanders the vir tue of your country women. You are afraid to do it. You must hung for favor to these negro’s skirts. Now, if from this minority we take your two thousand white nidi., cal supporters, we have the resulting reason why your soul cleaves unto Hargrove, as David’s did unto .Jona than. We understand why you do not attack the radical party. You cannot afford to alienate their affec tions. Your Jeffersoniau democracy would never survive it. Have any of my countrymen thought it strange that this man, nurtured at Georgia’s breast, fails to denounce radicalism, stands silent and allows his negro orators to be lieve that he will put them . in the jury box, listens and hears his coun trywomen slandered and rebukes it not? It is not strange. Ilia elec tion hangs upon his silence. I copy below part of an editorial in the At lanta Republican of September 18th. Bear in mind that this is the leading radical paper in Georgia. I beg my countrymen to remem ber 1868 and 1870, aud then read it. Will the people of Bartow remember Goodwin as they read? Will they recollect how down our (aces ran the glad tears of patriotic joy on the day we broke his power and his rule? Will not the people of Floyd remem ber as they read How, their young men were hurried away to prison because,-forsooth, on a festive occa* eioh they raised the confederate ban ner and the satrap heard some fond words escape from loving lips for the old battle Hug, furled at lasr. without a spot, thank God, upon the virgin purity of its folds, save the smoke of the battle when our loved ones fell? Will not every freeman in the dis* - -tlmt vowr-mimt way mhUl* upurnm- “iioulrarj to biiuar u ho pe trict remember now Felton hid him- ft“lf away in his obscurity while the satraps ruled and by his minions with their bayonets around the polls, defeated our choice, defied our will, aud gave our state to the hand of the alien thief and the native renegade Ijisten and learn why Felton dares not denounce the radical party: “The republicans of tins district are mostly commit ted to Felton; they knosv his .record; they know how small 1ms been theYreturn made for their generous anppflPt which he has twice hud; they believe that if again elected that his sense of honor and gratitude and indignation at the abuse that has been heaped upon him by the violent opposition, will lead him to cut loose from them.” “They, (the republicans), will vote for bin] in spito of his record, in or der that they may split the party in (he district, aud break up its organi zation—au organization so compact aud solid that so long as it remains unbroken will utterly prevent repub lican organization, the promulgation of republican ideas, and the accom plishment of any republican work.” Read it again. Tho radicals will vote for Felton, relying upon his sense of honor to cut him loose, from the democratic party. The radicals will vote for him “tosplit the party.” The radicals will vote for him “to break up its organization.” The radicals will vote for him and break ! up the party, because as long as the ! party is solid there can be “no pro-! I mulgation of republican ideas nor thu ! accomplishment of any republican I work.” God of my country, if tho | I speeches ol Middlebrooks and Brown | are not republican enough, save me J and my children from the day ■ promulgation of republican ideas! Read it again, my country me RetuHf liryour neighum-. 11 ,*4-i to your wife and children around the hearth-stone. Liberty and an un chained stute is all that Felton’s se cession war has left us. Liberty is the only heritage which we, au im poverished people, can transmit to our children. You freed Georgia from radical rule once more. Behold how they expect to rule you again! See how they expect yon to give them another representative. In the name of our country, 1 ap peal to you. Will you aid your rad ical enemifs by supporting Felton? Think of our past. For the sake of our children, look to the future. Think of the coming fight in 1880. What will become of us all if we lose the bailie then? All over the union anxious eyes are turned to Georgia. Our friends are discouraged. Tho hearts of our enemies leap within them for joy. They cry, “the, entering wedge is in — it is a solid south no more.” Geor gians, where entered the wedge in Georgia? Shall we divide now? Shall we make glad the hearts of our enemies and vote for Felton because tho rad icals say it will “split the party”— our party—the party that stood like a Stonewall between us and the op pressor for loug, long years; the par ty who buried hate upon the battle., field and stretched out a brother’s arms to welcome us back to our “fa ther’s bouse.” Shall we break up the party on the eve of victory? Shall we give up the ship? Nol no! Rather let us cry, “When man after man sinks down, let the last patriot left to walk the decks ‘nail the flag to the mast, and give tlio ship and the flag to the god of the winds, the lightning and the gale.” My countrymen, let there be no discord between us. God forbid, my brother, that I should wound your honest heart with bitter words. We love onr country. Deep as the seas that circle her, high as the heavens that bind thoir eternal blue above, unfettered as the winds that sweep from the wave washed shore of Maine, to tho sunlit lagoons of Lou isiana—from the snow peaks of Alas ka, to the snow blooms of the or ange groves of Florida; deathless as liberty—is our love. Here is the temple; here is the flag; here is the altar. We have cast out the radical thief and money changer. Listen to them crying, “Vote for Felton! vote for Felton! split the party! split the party! and we shall enter aud do our work and more. What shall we reply? Let it be to Felton, “Your -iotory would he our shame.” Let it be to the ene my, “Away with your entering wedge. Rock-ribbed,democracy nev er splits!” Dr. Felton, you shall not escape. In my last letter I entreated you to unite with your oppoj unt and secure a peaceable election. Passion and excitement, run lugh.‘ You will do nothing to allay it. You do not want then, a peaceable elect i >n. I begged with you to unite widi your oppo nent to protect the po's. You are silt'iit. We are left t^the mercy of 'he repeating and imported voter. I ask you if you didn’t say to one of your warmest supp rtera in Whit field that you had .Spent so much money in the two campaigns you could save nothing from ^our salary, and was forced to dri.w upon your private resources to defray the ex pe,use8 of this canvass. , I called your attention to the suspicion which this, taken in connection with the frnrtls of 1876, excited even in unwilling minds. I invited you to clear your self Irom so dishonoring a suspicion. You are silent. All your organs are silent. Do you imagine, sir, that you can give this matter the silent slijt ? Think you ,‘the name of Cas sius honors this oomi'ttion ?” Stand aud auswer. Did yao Dot toll the Rot. W. 0. Richardsju, of Whitfield county, that after you; first election you hoped you would have been elected the second time without much opposition, but the opposition had pressed you so hard, and you Ln^l sulle been compelled to apeud a good deal of money, aud that, polluting your whole expeuses, you htAl made noth ing, but had been compelled to draw on yo-: private resources? Aud again with the hope that y*m might hu able to get some or whole ; and that you would be satisfied if elected without much opposition the third tiiuo ? Sir, did you say it? I am inform ed that Richardson has said you did. Your constituents wait for your THE POUTER. Who is thi pouter? He is to be found in almost every household, we are well acquainted with him, but cannot for the life of us, love his ways, lie is one who fumes inward ly; who broodsover imaginary troub les till mole-hills becomes mountains; who thinks he is constantly insult ed; whoso self-love is always being wqtiuded—because he is ho thin skinned. He may be a clever enough fellow till a fit of the blues comes on, and theu a bear with a sore nose, or a cat with a sort* tail cannot be more irritable, and dear me, how disagree able is home then. Jlis lip hangs down till he almost stepson it. Ilis brow gathers in frowns, and his eyes seem to retreat into his head enly to cast withering glances on all. He sdlkf he is spiteful; he is sefish; he takes delight in pouting long; wraps ihimsef, as it were, in u mantle of gloom, and stalks about like a dead head at a feast. Tho genuine pouter is an egotist of a peculiar kind. It is not tho sparkling, volatile kind that amuses us in spite of ourselves. .That tells its funny tales, with self for the he ro, iu ouch a charming style that wo forgive the egotism that prompted it. Not the dignified, bombastic egotism which awes even while it. amuses us. Not the egotism that laughs at his own witty sayings, and no one else, that struts aud parades and flourishes. But the egotitm of the pouter is ppculiar to li is kind; i: is silent and He thinks himself wiser than his associates, and : .f the whole world does not agree with him he is aulleuly aggrieved. He thinks his judgment superior to that of any one else, and if one advances an opinion 'u4.it, He watches for opportunities to pout When he speaks it is with a spiteful iling. He is like an assassin, who lurks in dark places, and comes out to thrust ami wound and stab; while a bravo man would give a weak one a ohanoo—a choice of weapons—and reply. Clear yourself speedily lest! come out iu open daylight. supicion strengthen into belief. Y have already forfeited all claim to our support. Add uot disgrace to your inevitable defeat. Citizen. YE (JUAIL HUNTED. 'I'lto foolish cow friskoth her tail and cheweth her cud aud goeth forth with joy to browse in the thicket the whole day long. But the wise cow knoweth that quail shooting hath begun, and she harkeucth unto the voice of wisdom, wich suith, Lo, the hunter is come anon, girt about with the shot pouch and the powder-horu, and in his hand he carrioth a weapon, the bar rel of which be doubted. And he goeth about seeking the birds that, do run upon the ground with exceeding swiftness, that he may ensnare them and slay them with the weapon and devour them, even upon toast. And the weapon goeth bang and ye hearetli the sound thereof, and ye smelleth the powder, but ye knoweth not, nor doth any man knoweth whereunto the discharge appertained. For it flyeth with haste into the thicket and into the region located thereby, even into the whole terri* tory thereunto adjacent. And it falieth upon the cow and it siniteth her sore, so that sho lif ted up her tail and 'flyeth, being sftrely and grievously displeased. But the bird escaped the wrath and from a rail in a remote corner of the land laughed he the. hunter to scorn. Therefore has tho wise cow said iu her heart, 1 will lay me dowu in the home pasture and will not go into tho thicket, nay, uot for the hunter or any udder man.

OcllO-2t He is a torment to himself—an eating canker in his own home, while th ise who. l ive him best, grieve over that blot upon his character. If the baby cries, or the cat squalls, or the dogs light, he is certain that it is all done to fret him. He is generally dyspeptic, and looks at life with a jaundiced eye—he is devoured with a “green aud yellow melancholy,” but utterly refuses to “smile at grief;” iu fact ho refuses to smile for days at a time, then perhaps company comes in aud we lay the “flattering unction to our souls” that he will get better now; blit no, a wintry ;leain flits fora moment over his face, and is gone—he has discovered that it is a preconcerted arrangement, an attack upon him in his own stronghold, and he will not give in. We feel so cramped and miserable aud hurt with feverish hate for some thing—anything to talk about that will relieve the dull, dead silence, but we can think of nothing to say, our mind is a blank, and the poor friend goes away feeling unwelcome, and vaguely suspicious of a skoleton iu our closet, whose grinning bones can scarce be hid. Many a household is cursed with the pouting demon, which, like the terrible old man of the sea, when it once getB fairly seated, is so hard to be got rid of. Then, oil! ye miserable pouting friends, lift that dark frown, como out of your crusty shell, and look up at the bright sky, look around at the glad sunshine, how it blesses and beautifies all things. What right have you to mope and mourn, and turn tho milk of human kinduess to the sourest of vinegar, and your blood to bile. The crabb who came out of his shell was surprised to find how large the world was, and what a multitude were in it, each one as good as him self. And if you will lay aside ycur crusty shell and begin to count up your blessings instead of your woes, you will get hastilylasbamed of your- Belf for pouting, when there are oth ers in the world-beside yourself that have opinions, wishes and rights, and over that oliarmed circled called .Horae, how baneful aud baleful is the pouters influence.

The committee, after due deliberation, concluded not to give tho prize to the “best” com position, but. to the “least bud.” For the purpose of showing to the people the penalty of illegal voting, so that they may avoid trouble at the coming election, we give the law as laid down in tho Code of Georgia: “If any person shall hereafter vote more than once at any election which may be held in any county of this State, he shall be punished by imprisonment aud labor in the peni tentiary for a term not less than one year nor more than two years.” Votiug by a minor under twonty- one years and above fourteen is also made a misdemeanor, and is punish able us such.
