Wo were not aware, until now, tlmt bad men aro the sort host titled for positions of rospon- mi'.l (»*imwc, <t«lW ttn/fff'io that tho prncticaf oudorsotnout of this ideu is tho reason why the govern men t has so long boen in tho hands of those who "neither fear God nor regard man.” Indeed, there socuih to bo a premium on wickedness ; nud to car ry out tlioidon, tbo worse tbo man the bettor tho statesman I Ambitious nud expiring young men should make a nolo of this fact, and bo caroful to avoid tho pallia of truth, honesty and sobriety lost they peril their politirnl prospects, and endanger their ohancos for political preferment. Wo know of many whonro on tho highway to fame, uoeordiug to this idea, and have only to oonliuuo their evil practices in or der to bo successful, llut to bo seri ous, was there ever before such an absurd argument used as tho one quoted at the head of this article, us a reason why u man should noi be elected to ofllcc. Dr. Felton being proverbially a good man, is one of tbo very best reasons why ho should re ceive tho support of ell who have the welfaio of tho country at heart. For- tunnto would it bo it CongiVHH wore full of such men as tho gallant nnd pious Gun. Gordon and tho eloquent and christum-hcartcd Dr. Fo.lon.

Our ('uiKliUiitrs for C ongress. Tho Cartelsvillo Standard and Ex press furnishes tho follow ii g pou''pic tures of tho prosotit aspirants for the nomination for Congress at tho com ing Callumn convention : Tho good people of tho 7th district aro b’ossed with gentlemen willing to servo them in tbo council of tho nation. First, is tbo present nUo and efli- cienfc ropiestntativo, tho Hon. 1\ M. B. Young : ho has made his mark i n two pages of our history, tho military and Iho civil. If rt-elected his con duct in tho past is a safe huh x of his future. In him tho pooplo have all they want, nud that is all that cun bo said of any one. Floyd furnishes us Col. Daniel S. Priutup. Cel. P. is well know’ll to the pooplo of this section, and known fivorably. Ho is a good lawyer, an enterpiiiing citizen, eminently public spirited, and if elected will make an able member of Congress. Cobb hands us over Col. Waddell nnd Debtor. Both can’t go at once, nnd which ono will bo tho winning man wc aro unable to Bay just yet. Tlioy nro both able men, both tine speakers, botli of fine information, well informed upon current questions nnd if either is elected, tho 7tb District will have reason to bo proud of hor represent at ive. Whitfield furnishes tho Hon. L. N. Trammell, Into President of the Geor gia Semite, who. if elected, will make an able aud dlicicut member of Con gress. Dee Cullurr. Mr. Editor:—Feeling desirous that all tbo legitimate financial resources of our county shall bo developed, and believing that tho culturo of toes is both lucrative and pleasant, I wish to say a word or two tliroutli your col umns, about a visit I recently made to the Apiary of Major 8. M. IL Byrd, hoping to awaken interest in tho mat ter. Tho hivo used by the Major is of tl.o Thomas patent. Tho body of tho hivo is tilled with open, movable frames, reaching from top to bottom, which are loaded by tbo boos, and may bo removed, ono or two, or all at once, without interfering with tho woll-boingof tho hivo, nnd without injury to Iho opofator. Major B. very kindly removed them from ono box, ono by ono, showing mo tho modun ojxrtmdi of honey-making and tbo dif ferent ordors of boos. Above tbo body of tho hivo is a second apart ment, coot lining Movoral run ill boxes, partly of glass, into which tho boos store honey also. Ono of theio may bo removed at a moments notice, tho bees bring driven into tho body be low, and uo barm done to them or tho operator. I have novor soon a more convenient, simple, easily nmimgod hive. Mr. Ii. Whitehead aud Mr. J. A. Wynn huvo similar ones, aud aro well pleasod with tlioin. I commend those hives, nnd boo culturo to our farmers throughout tho country. L.‘ A CARD. To I Ik* People of I lie 71 Ii Con gressional District. Follow Citizens : It is by no moans a pleasant task to apeak or writo of one’s st If, but thoro has be on so much said and pub lished relative to my candidacy for Congress in this District, tlmt justice to myself and friunds demands that my position nnd views oil tho subject should bo made known, over my own signature. It lias been said and published that I would bo a candidate in any event, n gardloss of tho action of conven tion. This assertion iH not only with out foundation, but docs mo groat in justice. I nui no disorganize!’, it is well known to most of you, that from tho very inception of the lmlod scheme of Reconstruction up to this hour I have industriously exorcizod whatever of talent or intluonco I possessed in opposing Radicalism in all its forms, and in aiding others to obtain oflloo. In overy political camp aign sinco tho war, l uiivo influentiidly allied myself with tho fastest friends of good gov ernment, and did what wan in my power to maintain Democratic princi ples and give success to Democratic candidates. This was not done to advance my own personal interests, for most of tho time 1 was disabled by law from holding any ofllco nnd u portion of Iho lima I was not oven al lowed to voto. This lino of conduct on my part ought to have shielded mo from the imputation of being a disor ganize^ and it ought to have boon something of a guaranty that I was still ready to work for 1 ho legitimate nominees of tbo party. If you ho will it, I stand ready to do this, though I may bo put ahIJo, and younger mou who huvo certainly done no more than 1 have, should bo clouted us your ntaiubird bearers. I shall bo found opposing party conventions only whon their value and fairness aro destroyed by tho tuanngemout, trioliory and in trigue of unworthy men who souk ofllco through t ho iustrumoutulity of a paeked convention, whon tlioy ouunot obtain it by fair and legitimate moans. Borne men seem to think tlmt all the machinery and arrangement of these conventions wore devised for tho special honelit of aspirants for ofllco, and honoo they go industriously to work upon tho idea that if they can ho inunipuluto tho selection of dele gates on to obtain tHo nomination, it is all right,, whether tho pooplo want thorn or not. Such, fellow citizens, is not iny view of tho subjeot. 1 have always thought Unit conventions wore originally designed for tho benefit of tho people, and tlmt they ought to be organized and conducted for tho pur pose of ascertaining nnd carrying out tho popular wi!\ t have always thought that they t-hcfuld bo composed of good, true and worthy men, who ouinu together unslmeklod by obliga tions or pledges, and who aro deter mined to survey tho entire Hold with fairness aud candor, and put forth hb candidates, tho worthiest, best quali fied, and most acceptable mou. Whon tlioy fail to do this, thoro is but ono lomedy loft, nnd that is for tho poo- do to repudiate their action, and ho- oct officers for themselves. It has also been said aud published that 1 would not bo a candidate at all. If by this assort ion ii. is moaut that 1 huvo not visited tho various couutios in tho dibtriot for tho purpose nf “tix- ing up" delegates who will support uro in tho convention, whether the pooplo want mo or not, then it is truo that 1 am not ami will not bo a can didate. But if it is mount tlmt 1 do not desire the position and would not accept it if fairly conferred, then tho i.tso t on is not true. 1 v ould bo proud of a seat in Con gress if obtained in accordance with tho popular will and by manly and fair ih tiling towards other aspirants for tho place ; but if I luivo to obtain it by manipulation, wire-working, trickery and intrigue, aud at tho ex- pom oof my manhood and Bolf-rcr- pect, 1 do not desire it. \\ ith this frank expression of my views and feelings upon tho sul-jeot, 1 submit my claims, if indeed 1 have any, and ask for them yo. r favorable consideration.

A new Baptist Church at Stono Mountain was dedicated last Sunday. Rev. A. T. Spaulding, of tho second Baptist Church, Atlanta, preached tho dedicating sermon. A Warrant county farmer was ro- contly hoard apostrophizing his cot ton in tho following strain; Well! my God! You aro n hardy plant! You must hivo Iho fahelcd nine lives ot tho cat to live in tho faco of such treatment ns that which you receive from these frcodinon; f< r I II ho d d if any other plant on tho foots!' ol could live through tho afflictions under which you labor. Great God! it is surprising, astonishing, mirraeulous, wondorfnl, that wo make even a half of n crop, and yet tho people com plain. It should bo a matter of con gratulation. A correspondent of tho Atlanta Nows has this to say about Col. Ja«. O. Waddoll, an aspirant for Congro - sional honors : "Ho is a truo and I riod .Democrat.

As an orator ho has fmv equals. Wore he Hont to Congress, I predict that ho would at tho outset take a high stiiud ns an orator and statesman.'’ A Noble Old Southern l.ndy. A remarkable case of energy in an old lady of seventy years bus recently boon exhibited, which is worthy of moution. Thoro has boon cofined with chains for tho last two years in Washington county, Alabama, near St. Sti plums, a raving maniac in the person of a young woman of about twenty years. Her old mother 1ms watched over her strickon and chained child for two long years. At hud hu man natnro gnvo out in povorty nnd continual attention to tho manioc. Hor physical strength gave way, and cupelled hor to cull on tho county to scud her child to tho insane asylum at Tuscaloosa. The county did nothing for her. She then appealed to her neighbors, aud of Iho gallant moil of Washington county, after she hud ob tained letters from the Judge of Pro bate that hor child was a lit subject for tbo insane asylum, not one would go to tho asylum with her except for largo pay. At this hour, tho widow of a late prominent member of tho Mobilo bar »B< e BuvHitj-ynu-p, st. ppul foiwnnt and offered her servio s. Reduced in money matters horself, she took from tho idllotod mother her pittance, aud wont on board tho steamer llalo with her charge, for Tuscaloosa, getting iu- sU tance ns sho could by hiring it and by tho kindness of parties haponing to bo prison t. The boat, uppou got ting to Finohc’a Ferry, could go uo further. Sho to.'ogmplied for a hand cart, which wao promptly sent, nnd under tho protection of tho oouduobor she landed safely with hor chargo and dilivored hor to tho asylum.

From Bir mingham sho came to Montgomery, aud from Montgomery sho cauio to Mobile, where sho arrived Friday eve ning at iivo o’clock, a little tired; but after resting nil uight sho awoko in the morning as bright as over, and left Saturday evening for her homo in Washington county, thoro to report to tho gallant men there that at tho ago of seventy she had douo what none of them would do .—Mobile Graphic.

Letter from Texas. Dam.au, Texas, July 20, 1874. Editor Record:—Through the kind ness of some friend I have, in this fur off land, received several issues of your well conducted paper ; and coming from the "home of my boyhood,’’ it Hoc-ms a visit from an old acquaiu tancc. I trust tho good pooplo of Cedar Valley may extond to your en terprise such co-opcration and sup port as will insuro success. You will pleat o soud ino tho Record for tho time for which Che dosed amount demands; and from among tbo many Georgians living here who have friends iu your vicinity, I hope to add other names to your subscription list. I. had not thought to write you at any length, but I am in receipt of so many letters of inquiry, I will, for tho perusal of those who may contemplate seeking a homo in the Lone Star State, givo briefly some notes of our city and county. The growing importance of Dallas as a business umt Railroad centre, added to its enviable position in the vory heart of the fumed wheat and cotton region of North Texas, togeth er with tho manifest pluck, public Hjiii it and energetic enterprise of her citizons, havo gained for her the name of tho " Atlanta” of tho South West. The unpretentious village of two years ago, has with monstrous strides and rcmarkublo progressivenesr, matured Into a magnificent city, composed of elegant buildings built principally-of brick and stem*. Two yours ago the village was principally confined to tho tquuro, then a vacant lot where once a so-called Court Ib.uuu jju<i been; but no sooner wore the gates to the Noithwcst, East and South opened by railways, than a Niagara of immi gration began to pour in boro, ami as if by magic a thousand bouses have gouo up. An iron bridge, a stono Court House, rows of brick stores, pretty cottages aud elegant residences, gas works, street railways, hotels, halls, theatres, aud all the appliances and conveniences of an inland city, with a population of, siy 12,000. Tho prevailing elements of society is South ern. The best of feeling prevails be tween! tho people from every section. D. II u is the most cosmopolitan place in tho South. Tho tnnn who means honest work is encouraged, and a lib eral spirit prevails generally. Loafers are not tolerated, and the dangerous classes RIO warned periodically, which vastly improves the moral atmosphere. Our Agricultural surroundings aro unsurpassed iu richness of soil and variety of products. Tho •surround ing country presents a lovely patic- I'ama of inairio and woodbind, undu lating, rich, picturesque, with farm houses, cattle, and id most every vari ety of crops. Tho number of acres in miltiviiLiop has been qiiudniph .l aiua« 1870, and neat country rosidancos with barns and out houses*, havo taken the place of cabins and sheds. Tho farms are generally cultivated by wbito la bor. Tho almighty "nigger” don’t amount to n row of pins hero, politi cally or otherwise. Africa is hope lessly in tho minority, amt carpef-bag- gery impossible. It is tho white man’s country, and tho people stand firmer politically, agriculturally and finan cially, than they do any whore South. -Society in Dallas wi 1 comparo favora bly with society anywhere. 1 venture to say that thero is as much culturo, refinement, stylo and bounty boro, as in any town of its size North, South, E ist. or \V< st. A largo number of tho best typo of Southcanors have como in within tho past two years, bringing with them that polish of manner and ease of society peculiar to tho well bred. From tbo West havo como sumo of tho solid mon, whoso social qualities aro only equalled by their admirable business qualifications. In Dallas nino churches aro crowded ouch Lord’s day, and our schools nro of tho first grade. A lively interest is mauifostod iu tho ouuso of ednoutiou, and wo aro emphatic illy no longer a frontier pooplo. Tltrco weekly and two daily newspapers aro published hero. Tho grangers aro well organ ized in our county, nnd together with tho Good Templars, have ahoady erected several commodious hills Tho two organizations mo making preparations for a rousing big bar becue on tho 31st inst. Our mortuary list shows tho salubri ty < f o«r climuto to bo remarkably good. Tho constant exhilerating broezo of our prnirio renders sum mer pleasant, nnd tho experience of last fall, wlnn case after ease of yel low fever dodged tho quarantine against Shreveport, and fled to Dallas without spreading tho disease, proves our city safe from tho prevalence of this turiblo epidemic, these advan tages, together with cheap lands, a hearty wi Icoino and kind oncourago- mont to honest efforts aro tho induce ments wo i tier to tho now comer.
