THE RECORD. IVY F. THOMPSON, AsIocutk Km CEDARTOWN, GA.. NOV. II, 1874. On lohl Monday night, imvcml of our citizcUH, feeling mjoicud over tho election of Dr. Foltou in this district, nnd tho grout Democratic victories all over tho Unitod States, m* t ou tho square and fired off o number of big gun*, nnd gave othor deinouilmlioiut of their ghid 11 cub at tho general roniilt. One or two little ntmiaing iucidonta occurred during tho domonutration. A Bnpportor of Dabney, who hud ro- tirod to his "little bod," having board that evening that I) buoy wan eluded by three votes, on bearing Die firing jumped out of bed and rushed dowu town to tuko part in the rejoicings. Ou being informed that bin turn wait difonted, hl» patriotism cooled down instantly, and eb slipped off and went home. JuTtbo ganio night about forty of our colored clttaiDS formed in lino, torch in hund, and marched through tho btrools, some shouting hurrah for Fulton, some for Dabney, others for the Hock mutt Reporter, and tbo man who had no loin ou Ilia crop, ole. One or two lug guna wore fired off about tbo time tho procosftion got down town, and not knowing what tho firing meant, two of them brok > ranks and run for life, thinking tho whiten wore firing ou them. Wo lmvo just punted through a lioutod political canvass, and now that it has past wo can enjoy tho quiet nnd pcaco that follows tho storm. Excite ment ran high, and tho contest was very spirited. Uudor such e xcitement opinions and sent!wonts are often ex pressed iu too strong language, there by giving offence. Men diffur in their opinion of mou and measures, and they should do so with a kindness of heart and a forgiving spirit. A good and true man lias been chosen. Let tho hoartburuings of tho pnst bo buried, and let us cherish ono for another kind and fraternal foeliuga Ou lust Monday night soino of our cili'Aons had a jubilee over the election of Dr. Felton and the great Dumo emtio victory all over tho country. It wan not done to taunt our Dabney, friends. Wo think tho EsproBB, no doubt unintentionally, did llioso gaged n groat wrong hi characterizing it as "joining in tho chorus of a rabble in their exultations over u Democrat ic defeat 1” Wobstor defines a "rabble” us "u tumultuous crowd of vulgar, noisy, people ; a mob; a confused disorderly crowd. Tbo lowest class of people, without reforenoo to an assem bly; tho dregs of tho people.” Wo will give the names of some of tho "rabble” referred to : 0. Philpot, A Huntington, J. H. Noyes, J. O. Allen, W. F. Turner, J. K. Earlier, W. Ed. Wood, John Vann, W. P. Lumpkin nnd many others of our best citizens. Wo do not think such denunciatory language should be applied to ouch good and true won—-men who are high-tonod and honorable, nnd over into to their country nud tho wolfuro of tho Democratic party. The Next ( oiixro*. 1 the general complaint last Thursday Tho lower Hotise of the next (km- I night was tlmt it burned badly, was gross having a Democratic majority "f : tqo smokey and reflected but little from fifty to fixty does not, by any j ligut. and tho pooplo cruelly Said it moans, enable tbo Democracy to simps ; was because it was Joseph’s yino, nnd iho comno of legislation. Tho most consequently could not have enough they can do is to stop injurious and . Democracy in it to give th« brilliant repressive inonaurns so fur as tho ! light commensurate with tho victory South is concerned, nnd pass bills do- | gained over tho late friends and allies signed to restore tho country to' * * ~~ ~~ cotiiiuorcial and mnnufactnring pros perity. The Senate, howovor, remains iu the hands of the Radicals, although by a greatly reduced majority, and until 187(1 tlioro is no possibility of a change, Of tho seventy-four mouthers com posing tho Senate tho Democrat* will have at Jonat thirty, and, perhaps, thiily-four in the next Congress. Giv ing them.thirty members, loaves the Radicals in majority of fourteen, which with tlm aid of the president, will virt ually controll legislation, and will, wo fear, reject all bills which clash with tho interestii of tho moucycd aristocra cy of tho country. It in, thcroforo, scarcely possible for tho Democracy to effect any roul re forms untill after tbo next Prudential election, Aii most, ull they can do is to throw upon the Radical Bonato the responsibility of rejecting such meas ures as may bn beneficial to tho people, and thus make tho Radical party ac countable for Whatever injurious re sults may follow. In Rut one respect will the Democracy lmvo absolute pow er. All appropriations of money must puss tlin house, and as that body will bo decidedly Democratic, tho I)i eratic party will lo u M u rally held re sponsible for every dollar of tho public money expended or appropriated. One of the most important causes of the recent Radical over-throw is tho extravagance of Radical office-holders. Tho Democracy must look well to it that they cut down the exponana of tho govornmout several inillionH during tho next two years, for upon their economy depends, to a certain extent, tho fido of their party |iu tho next Presidential election. * — Atlanta New*.

Editor* Gone.litutirm:—As fmjuoitl efforts have been made, in the news papers supporting tho Radical p uty in tho Seventh Congressional district, to drug my name into the canvass; and as I see tlmt Dr. FoltoiV has boon cluctod over Col. Dubnov, one of the purest and bout mon of Georgia, who was tho regular nominated standard bearer of tlir. Democratic party, l ask space iu your paper for a short com ment. Agsiust Dr. Felton, as a goullomnn I lmvo no remarks to muko. It can not bo denied, however, that lie was elected by the almost solid vutoof the Radical parly, including the unitod negro vote of his district, with the help of u wing of tho Democratic par ty that refused to stand by its organi zation and support its nominee, iu tho person of either Col. Trammell or Col. Dabnoy. I make no assault on motives, but J predict tlmt the Democratic party has Mot oucti tlm last of (lie trouble thut will grow out of tins' disorganization, as the success of the combination be tween tbo Democrats who bolted the nomination nnd the Radicals will lead toother like experiments, about which there may have beeu iu advance a pitul understanding In.tween tho ntrnoting parties. I see iu a newspaper of ibis city which supported the candidate of the Radical party of tho Seventh district, ,nd there is great rejoicing iu Cartels- ille over the result; and t.lmt there is to bo a grand torch procession there to-night; and tlmt 1 am requested to furnish a ear to bring the pino down from Dalton to bo Used in the proces sion. Thanking the correspondent who makes the loqueat, nnd tho ed itor who puhlishud it, for tho kind in vitation, 1 lmvo to remark that, fore seeing tho gouur.d result, 1 lmd pro vided au exoullont ear load of torch pino for the uso of tho Democracy last night, on tho occasion of the brilliant procession which came off iu tho city. Part of it waB loft, and as tho Radicals have triumphed iu but a single dis trict in Georgia, 1 fool that they are entitle J to be jubilant over that and celebrate thoir victory, by a torchlight procession. And as the Democrats will not uood it, 1 most cordially ten der it to tho Radicals of tho Suvouth district tho torch pine that was left by tho Democracy last night, to bo used iu tho celebration of thoir victory; re serving only a stick or two, which a Radical friend bogs mo to allow him to uso in tho cob brut ion of tho grout a Turri- Deinocratic party that characterizes it; (Joseph tried to stranglo tho Democ racy in Georgia.) Woll, really, ov-Govcrnor Brown "fatigues tho indignation,” as General Toombs would say. The host ovidonco of Dr. Felton’s pure, unadulterated Democracy, was tno fact tlmt his elec tion was opposed by Joseph E. Brown. Quito probable Col. Dabney would have been elected bad not Joseph supported him. Col. Dabney is a good man, able and true; blit when Joseph E. Brown got upon his back the load was too heavy a ono to carry. And as for Joseph B. Brown’s fling at Dr. Felton, why, it is just certain to make him more popular than ovor; for if there is any man in Georgia who is as vile odors in the nostrils of tho pooplo, it is to be assailed by Jo seph E. Brown, and it is tho *e*aine to public favor. To bo regarded as an enemy, is to give tho world assurance llml you are uu honorable man. —Atlanta New*. in the State!

How They I'luyil It on Dough erty. One day list week four or five Do* traitors wont into Macomb county to shoot Hqnirrells and kick thoir shins against logs and fenso rails. They lmd just oaten a cold lunch in tho woods ono noon, when one of the par ty, a young man nntnod Dougherty, Htreached out ou his hack, pulled his hat ovor his eyes, and gave his mind up to tho work of assisting his body to catch a little rest. Tho remainder of tho party having au understanding beforehand, quietly withdrew, one by one. Ono of them pasflod around n bush, near Doughorty’s foot, und took a tin rattle-box from his pocket. An- orhor stood close to tho young man’s legs, and, in a supprossod voice, when the signal was given, whispered: For lh nvon’a sake 1 Dougherty, don't movo so much as a linger! A big ratllosnako is right under your leg 1” Dougherty was tl.it ou his back, uyott ovoied, arms sprawled out, and his Goico Lromblod as he replied: "My God ! what shall I do .” "Keep perfectly quiet. It is your ily hope! If you oven raise a fiugor ho will dart ids fangs into you 1 ’ Tho man with tho rattle-box gave it a shake, and reached out aud laid a club across Dougherty’s legs, while tho other mail mo\od off about twenty foot and exclaimed: IIuuvoiiH ! what can wo do ? If wo shoot wo may kill Dougherty 1” Tho club was rolled off on tho ground aud tho victim whispered: “For mercy suko kill it 1” Tho club was rolled ovor Ids legs again, tho box shaken, aud the man whispered buck: “Bo quiet or it is instant death ! I think the tuko wants to go to slue; and if you will keep still you will bo all right." Tho box was shaken, tho club moved around, and finally tho “auako” Bucmed to Doughorty to eottlo down on his broast. 1 lo darod not whisper for tear of rousing it, but ono of tho mou called out: "Tlioro, it is asleep 1 We’ll move away und wait for it to glide oft’!" Tho whole crowd moved ovor be hind a biu.k and laughed and rolled and tore up the dirt until they wore exhausted, while poor Doughorty lay there like u 1« g, not oven daring to lo draw an ordinary broth. Tlu* sweat rau down his face, aud started from his body until bis shirt w wriging wet. The fjllows took tbior gnus and trampled away, leaving him thus, aud were gone an hour aud a half. Wlion they returned Dougherty was sitting up, having diocovorod tho joke about live, minutes previously. ITo didn’t lmvo a word to say, but there was a whole unabridged diction ary in his eye. They spoke to him, but for an answer be rose up, shoul dered his gun, nud tuado a heo-liuo for tho highway, nnd uono of tho par- tv has mot him eince. the CKDABTOWN FURNITURE WARE-ROOM nov 7—ly Dissolution Notice. rpilK Firm of Peathorston k Phillips liMoWed the lit «<f February, for pesos oVenpt lo wind up nil olliei . business of die old • must pay up right pi lled to h Thu win G, t FEATHERSTOH Continues to deal in DRY GOODS, Boots and Shoes, Hardware, flats, Groceries v 'Art., Ac., &c., I»0 V On hIl Ho also buys i Iwro ho will soil i lowest, for Itu rtcr. 1 tells Cotton.
