to a letter lrom a p#fty fe’f gentlemen in
bolHmbtu, both piiblialied in this
ihnt hr decline* to be a candidate for
Governor, tor a third term, or a second
term to one full term and n> nnexpired
Urm of another term.
We think (.1 >vurnor Smith acted wise
ly. fir retired gracefully, and in order,
with all bis blushing honors, thick and
fart upon him. And we think with the
strongest nnd largest following fff any
man s|X)ken of us a candidate. 1 lie
warfare in the gubernatorial race was,
anil is, a personal one. It a few more
would retire, their own interest would
suffer hut little by it, nnd the Democrat
ic party, as well as the whole couutiy,
Would be hern fitted.
What effect the refusal of Gov. Smith
to be a candidate will have on the polit
ical campaign, we arc unable to say its
hut a drop in the bucket, a wee flma'l
drop, and a groat big bucket. Hut as is
Slid sometime of old ocean when its wa

We hope others will follow C!s patri
otic example and seek shelter before the
Storm King commences his destruction.
WAIVING E.Y EMI'TIONS.
We son from our exchanges that a
tfreiit deal is being said pro and con
about the late decision of *our Supreme
Court, in relation to the right and valid*
ity of parties a* IffcHtls of families waiv
for thumselVes and for their families the
fight to take n Homestead ahd exempt,

tract, debt or mortgage is concerned,
where said head of taniily has waived
his right to said exemption, in said debt,
and when waiver is made ns aforesaid,
I artie* are debarred from its privileges,
We say there is a great deal said
Some trif, “joy to the people”—we’ve
amnrpren, goneraTly’,’ will ia*ko all yoii
have and render you houseless, home
less and penniless.”
As paradoxical as it may seerfi, ive
tfilliii boili pro'pbsi.ioris are true.
lion. Jolin li. Janies can truly exclaim,
“Joy. joy, orir task is deiiej the gates
arc passed, and wealth is won !’’
K*- Gov. Joseph E. Brclwii can well
and truly warn the people of Georgia to
“ Beware how they make contracts.”
They may well heed the ddviee—(we
care not whether it be given for a pure
or selfish motive) —it is tine, neverthe
less, <•
When you make a contract now and
waive for yourself and family the right
to a homestead, rest assured that yoiir
property will be subject to the debt.
Our advice to all panics, and especial
if to our fanner friends, is to keep out of
debt; Hr, it jour necessities force you
yort to go in debt,’don't go beyond your
ability to pay ; for if you do and fail to
sat ; sly tlit? blaitn, your roof will be ta

Live within your income, and keep n
roof to sheltef yo'ur head.
BOS. ALEXANDER H. STHfIIKBS.
The Columbus Enquirer, in a reoout
article on Hon. Alex. 11. Stephana, con
cludo* : This jjentleniau, the pride of
Georgia, ha, l’or several months past,
been confined to hia bed, but wo are
glad to state that he has so far improved
aato bo able to got up and move about a
little. Mr. Stephens is oue of tho most
remarkable men of the age. lie his
been an invalid nearly all bis life, yet
his vitality has been such that, he never
gives up. Oue dity we hear that he is
dying, the next that be is hard at work
ou some literary subject. Mr. Stephens
is poor now, aud wo regret to know that
ha is burdcued to support many dead
beats, which must be a serious matter
with him at the present low ebb of his
finani>.s It is said rtt.it whenever court
assembles iu Crawfordville, tbo Judge
find most of the bar “ put up" with Mr.
Stephens, and there is a lot ol hangers
on in his establishment that get a living
out ot him. Mr. S. has been very lib
eral iu his charities, and has educated
more men and women than any man iu
Georgia, yet in a number ot instances
these people whom he reared aud edu
cated still cling to him for support.
There is another -class that must he a
serious tax to Mr. S. We mean the old
political hacks, who in these times of
Young America find their occupation
gone, and ask Mr. S. for aid. Ifu can
ou'y open Ida house to them, tor he is
unable to do more. They accept, and
the consequence is that* he is loaded
down with “ IturrUPa boarders,' those
whp never miss a meal or pay a cent.
Mr. Stephens is one of the ’best and
jmresl men Georgia ever produced, and
while he was rich none went from him
empty handed ; and we thiuk it a shame,
that now, in Ins old age, he should U
tuXcd to support a lot ot paupers, whe ■
he is almost, a pauper hilnoll. \\<

lHtut Sis:—The undersigned, your
former neighbors, and stilt yottr friends,
have, with great surprise and indigna
vion; read the ttfi wrfrrrtnted assaults upon
you nnd vonr ndininistiation, and
through your itdmlnistration upon the
Democratic party of Georgia, by corres
pondents through the public press, the
most notable of which appeared in a re
cent issue of the New York Herald, and
through such means have obtained a
wide circulation in the States of the
Union, calculated to prejudice not only
tho high standing of our Stale, hut the
good name of the Democratic party of
Georgia. We do not know from whom
these aftactrs have proceeded, whether
from the holders of diseiedited bonds,
par isans or personal enemies. We be
lieve, however, that they do both you
and the party which placed you in power
gross injustice, and place you in a posi
tion where the good name of the State,
ihe weffafe of the party which placed
you ill off fee; as well as your own digni
ty, require that the truth or falsity of
11 ho assaults shall he brought tor decision
before the people of Georgia. And to
that end we very respectfully urge upon
you the great proprie'y of meeting these
assaults iiy again permitting your name
io be placed before the people of Geor
gia as a candidate for fe-ndftiir.alion to
the office of Governor by the Demo
cratic party of Georgia. Should you
consent to do so *ve feel assured that
you will be sustained by a majority at
least equal to that given you at ihe last
election.

My Hi-.ar Sirs: —T have the honor to
acknowledge the receipt of your favor of
the lttth ultimo, asking me to allow my
numb to be presented to the people for
re-nomination for the office of Governor
of UeOfgia. The gravity of the (pies',
lion; tbits presented, will T trust, be ac
cepted as a sufficient reason for any delay
in replying to’ yo l lr esteemed cwumuni*
• nw-ro (Auer li'UmiTs ni diTFerorit parts of
the State, that, 1 have Hot desired n re
election to the office I now hold; So far
as my own personal feelings are coriectn
ed, 1 hate made ill detiret of my iiiten
tion tb hit lie at tlie expiration of my
present term. If fora little while nnst.
I liavfe appeared to occupy a different
position from that, originally taken and
irequetilly announced, :i was in conse
quence of assaults made on my adminis
t rat ion, and, indirectly through me, upon
the Legislature and tfic Deinocf-atie party
in the State.
It is riot necessary to discuss the mo
tive's \<-hieh inspired these attacks, further
than to say, that they were of such a
ehai acter as; in my judgment, made it
proper for the to suspend iriy first inten
tion, and hold nfyself in a position to
answer any dennnd which the party
might thiitk fit to lay upon the. It is
now manifest, however, that any injury
resulting from theffe assaults lias fallen
alone upon those whose interests they
were designed to subserve, whether the
assailants lie, as you suppose, “the hold
ers of discredited bonds, partis,ms, or
personal enemies.’’
This consideration leaves me free to
return to.my original purpose and desire,
and to decline, as 1 now do, with great
respent, to have my name presented to
the approaching gubernatorial oonven
tion for renoutination.
I cannot conclude this communication
without loturning thanks to yon for the
flattering terms in which you arc pleased
to express your friendly regards for mo.
I desire, also, to make my grateful ac
knowledgments to the people of GeO”gia,
tor the unmerited honor they ‘nave con
ferred upon me, aid for the generous
support they have accorded my efforts
to administer the great trust confided to
my hands. When we recall the chaotic
state In which we found every depart
ment Af tlie government in 1872. and
contrast it with our present peaceful and
happy condition, I feel that we all have
cause lor congratulation. Onr public
debt has been ascertained, and the inter'
est oil it is now regularly paid ; while
our bonds are to-day rated tar above par
ill the great centres ot trade. Qur edu
cational system has been established on
a solid foundation; our varied resources
are being rapidly and systematically do
veloped ; anil our judiciary, lor integrity
and ability, is second to none in the eu
tiro Union. I can only wish that the
prqsperousaus career upon which we
have entered may suffer no check ; and
that both in our State aud Federal rela
tions, we may enjoy for many genera
tions to come, the blessings of peace aud
liberty. I am, gentlemen,
Your frieud and obediept servant.

use (after boiling about a week.) Price by
mail, postage paid, 15c a package, 30c a pint,
50c a quart, By express, $3 per pack, $lO
per bushel. These seeds are so scarce and
costly that we cannot make any discount to
wholesale dealers or granges.
When Southern planters grow their own
stock-feed and fatten their own hogs we 6hall
hear no more of hard times and “middlemen”
for this will put an end to both. If you fear
to invest largely it will cost but a trifle to try
these seeds, aud unless your experience differs
from all others yon will be forever thankful for
the trial. Address,
