He Refutes Charge, and Declares his De votion to Organized Democracy.* Dalton, Ga., October 2B, 1876. 3rr. C. 11. C. Willingnarn, Editor Car tenville Express, Cartersville Ga. Sir: I have just been informed that parties in Cartersville are making | statements that are calculated to make the impression that lam not sincere in my support of Col. Dab ney's election. This report as I un derstand it grows out of, and is | founded upon some friendly allu sions which Gen. Wofford saw proper to make in referring to me and the the canvass of ’74 in his speech in this j (dace and charges which he made at the same time accounting for my de i feat. llis charges amounted to about this: [I do not attempt to give his language.] “That I was sacrificed by parties pretending to be my friends some of whom were candi | dates before the Calhoun convention and others who were prominent in i contreling it, who, after I was nom inated, trumped up charges against me and put them in the hands of Dr. Felton, which were used to my in jury and for the purpose of getting me out of the way of these parties who were pretending to be my friends but who were in fact traitors, seeking my overthrow to make way for themselves.” Now, sir, while I do not suppose there is a man living who knows me who would believe that I am capable of deing a traitor in anything or un true to the Democratic party under any circumstances, I ask permission to give to this foul slander the em phatic denunciation of an equalised denial. And I desire to say here, while I have never opposed the elec tion of any one more earnestly than Ihavethatof Dr. Felton. I have never supported the standard bearer of the Democracy with more unquali fied auproval than I have the election of Col. Dabney. And while these are the facts, I deem It proper to'add, that I have not engaged in any per sonal abuse of Dr. Felton. I did not do so in the canvass of’74, I do not do so now. My opposition to him is because mv conviction of duty is to support Col. Dabney. Now, as to the disclosures which Gen. Wofford is making, that is a matter which circumstances may make it proper and necessary to Le considered by me and my friends at some future time. That I was the victim of the roulest treason, I have not now nor never have had the shadow of a doubt—that I suffered much in mortification of feelings, and reputation is also true. It is also true that I was satisfied when I withdrew that these conse quences would be the natural result of my withdrawal from the canvass but 1 did not known nor realize then there was to be no end to misrep sentßtions or falsehoods against me 1 did not expect that persecution would cease. But it is further true that I did not retire from the canvass because I thougnt my election hope less, hut I did so because urged that my candidacy was causing a chism in the Democratic party, and that my withdrawal would unite the party. 1 laid myself down because I preferred then as I do now, the unity and success of the Democracy to a seat for myself in Congress. It is further and equally true that all the persecution and slander, the injustice and ingratitude which have been allotted to me to bear, have not made me a traitor. Nor has it driven me from my party or my princi ples. A man who will abandon his party because of defeat, or who will not lay himself down to promote his par ty, is unworthy, in my opinion, of its support, or for the same reasons prove false to principle, from the be ginning and unworthy the support of any one. Now, sir, notwithstanding all these persecutionsjinjustice and ingratitude towards me in the past, and the mis representations of the present, allow me to say to the Democratic party. “Whither thou goest I will go, whither thou lodgest I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people. Thy God my God,‘and where thou diest I will die and there will 1 be buried.” Very respectfully, L. N. Trammell. JEW AND CATHOLIC. The Performance of a Novel Rite in St. Louis. St. Leu is Republican, Nov. 2.] Max Gumpert, as who does not know, is a little military tailor, full of business, who has an establish ment on Clark avenue, near t he Four Courts, and who has the patronage of a large portion of the police de partment. Max is of Jewish blood —and remarkable anomoly— his wife is a Catholic. There is a little arrangement existing between the couple that all the girls in the family shall be brought up in the Romish faith, while al v _ the boys shall be at least initiated into the Jewish church. Matters at first went very unfavorable for Max under this arrangement, for the reason that his first two childen were girls. He was beginning to feel discouraged, when, one morning last week, his loving helpmeet presented him with a jolly and healthful little JeVv as realized his fondest hopes. Max was fairly wild over the young Gumpert, and his friends for a time feared he would do something rash. He gave all his acquaintances an opportunity to con gratulate him, and then made prep arations for an occasion as should be an occasion. He argued that there was no telling when he would have another chance to jubilate, and so this one must not be lost. Accord ingly he issued to his many acquain tances. most of whom are attorneys at the Four Courts, very neat little cards of invitation to attend at the administration of the rite of circum cision, yesterday being the day fixed threfoiC At four yesterday afternoon his little house was filled with a pleasant party. Rabbi Rosen blatt officiated in the performance of the religious rite, and Col. J. R. Claihome, seated on a pillow on a table, assisted in the re lation of godfather with much dig nity and a little embarrassment. The ceremony over, the health of the little fellow was drank in numerous bottles of excellent champagne, and a merry time was had while Die UC tie hero bawled most lustily, evident ly failing to realize that there was anything to be merry about. Long live the race of Grumpert, Two hundred French Canadians Pace been brought Norwich. Conn,, to work in the.mills in that vicinity. CARTERSVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY HORSING, NOVEMBER 9, 1576.

The Atlanta Times says that the Georgia Railroad is doing a rushing business and is hauling thousands of freight. Rev. W. M. Hayes, Presiding El der of the Brunswick district, is rap idly recovering from an attack of yel low fever. United States Deputy Findlay brought down to Atlanta, Saturday morning,twenty-two prisoners charg ed W’ith illicit distilling. The son of Mr. “Fin” Williams, of Jackson county, was accidently killed last week by being run over by a wagon loaded with lumber. Mr. Cliff B.

One of our exchanges says that Mr. Wessalowski, the only Republican in the Georgia Senate, is also the only Jew that ever sat in that body, but we know better. The Columbus Times is responsi ble for the statement that verbena cordial is the finest in the vvor'd. The Times evidently has a n<?w name for mint juleps. United States Marshal Smythe tells the Atlanta Sunday Herald reporter that the Remington rexolvers recent ly consigned to him are merely pre cautionary measures. How many official majorities has Colquitt received and is the true ma jority, the sum or difference, of the reported majorities? Conundrums for the Secretary of State.

Easly, who committed suicide by shooting himself with a gun, in Wal ton county, so placed his weapon as to be able to pull the trigger with his t*>es. It was a very deliberate affair and when he was found the entire top part of his head was olown off. The Athens Watchman learns that Mr, Dallas Moore, of Banks county, who was acting as Deputy Sheriff, went to arrest Charles Jordan, color ed, who made an attempt to escape, when Moore shot at and wounded him, of which wound lie died.

The Brunswick Appeal says: “The fever lias abated to a great ex tent, but we s’iU hear of new cases being reported daily by the Health Officer.

Patter son, of Sun ay Side, says the Griffin News , bore up three prizes at tlie Newnan Fair. One for the best acre of corn, one for the best bushel of corn in the year , and one for the best half acre crop of potatoes, the latter measuring 157 bushels. We have oniy to add that Mr. Patterson is a regular paid up subscriber to the Griffin Weekly News. The Griffin News says: “All of Wednesday was occupied with the case of Mrs. Sears vs. the Central Railroad. Mr. H. Johnston and Ben Hill for the plaintiff; Gen, Law ton and Judge Speer lor the rail road. The evidence was somewhat conflicting. Mr. Hill closed the con cluding argument late yesterday evening. The result up to this writ ing is unknown, but the generous seemed to he that Mrs. Sears would gain a verdict.” We learn from the Standard that Mr. Alphebs Fuller, one of the best and most successful farmers, in Tal bot county, had his gin house burned one night last week. The fire origi nated in tiie lint room and occurred but a few minutes after Mr. Fuller had left it and gone home. AH the circumstances point to it as the work of an incendiary, There were four teen bales Of cotton burned besides a fine gin, etc. Madison Home Journal: We spent last Sunday at Liberty Hall witn Mr. Stephens. His health is now quite as good as it has been at any time within the past three or four years. He has wholly discontinued the use of morphine, which was a sort of dernier resort during his dreadful sickness last winter and spring, and now enjovs the sleep that brings true repose and health He informed us that on Saturday last he walked in all not less than three or four miles. The Augusta Constitutionalist of last Wednesday reports: Between nine and ten o’clock last night a most beautiful and magnificent me teoric shower was observable on the face of the moon, A humber of peo ple were out on the streets and wit nessed this display. At times a per fect shower of meteors would shoot across the moon’s light, all going from north toward the south. At intervals of a minute or two another shower would follow, presenting to the view a pretty sight, very much resembling a snow storm. It was seen for hours afterwards. The Atlanta Constitution learns “from a prominent stockholder in the Central road that a movement against Mr. Wadley has been started inside of the Central Camp that will make itself felt by the next annual meeting. It is complained that Mr. Wadley, by his eccentric and illiberal management, has driven business away from the road, reduced its earnings, and run down its stock. Its stock, which one sold for 117, is now, we believe, at 40 cents. It is claimed that much of this decline is due to Mr. Wadley’s bad manage ment. One thing is certain, Mr. Wadley succeeds in making more enemies to the road than is necessary. What the result of the movement will be it is hard to tell. Avery en ergetic and prominent stockholder heads it, and feels confident that it will eventuate in Mr. Wadley’s over throw.” Closing the Big Show.—Phila delphia, Nov. 3.—Though the Exhi bition will close on Friday, the United States Centennial Commission have resolved to continue the usual fee of fifty cents for admission until Saturday evening, thelkth inst. The committee having in charge the cere monies of closing day, to-day agreed upon the principal features of the ex ercises. They provide for salute to be fired at sunrise and noon of the 10th instant, by a battery stationed on George’s Hill ; the first of thir teen guns, in honor of the original thirteen States, and the later of forty seven guns, one for pitch Htate and Territory Of the present day.

What Ut* Paper* Say fr Colquitt, ami What he Saye* for Hlmelf. Our new made Governor is cutting ; quite a notable figure abroad. It L hardly necessary to say that he ILLUSTRATES GEORGIA NOBLY. “Gath,” the famous correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer says o' him: Governor Colquitt, of Georgia, is in town— statesman and lawyer—tall, straight and Indian like in features, straight black hair and piercing eyes—a fine type he is of the farmer statesman. “Governor,” we asked him, ‘ ‘how i did you come to get 80,000 majority in your State?” “We in Georgia.” he replied “are (►our and struggling for business life prosperity. Oar people are sick of politics and voted without regard to party for peace and good-will. Our election was held without any vitu peraiion or hard feeling, and there was hardly a quarrel in the whole State on election day.” “Does Georgia show any signs of recuperation ?” “Yes” replied the Governor. “We are building a number of factories in Atlanta, and our people have anew life and courage, with political tran quillity and lighter taxation, and we are getting, too, a class of people from the North who bring to us brains and capi al. We expect large numbers from your over crowded citieL” The New York Hon’d has the fol lowing: To gel information about to attitude of the Southern people in relation to the so-called “rebel claims,” a re porter of the World yesterday visited a number of the most prominent Southern publie men now stopping in the city. Governor A. 11. Colqu tt, of Geor gia,! n answer to inquires, said : “The Southern people have no desire] that these claims be paid, and are very certain to abstain from bringing any pressure to bear upon a Democratic administration or Congress to have them allowed. 1 believe that I am fairly acquainted with the? entiments and doings of the leadingjmen of the South, and I am free to say that neither on the stump nor in private gathering where people unbosom themselves and say, not what they consider judicious, but what they really think, has there ever, to my knowledge, BEEN THE SLIGHTEST HINT OR WINK. given that in the event of Tilden’s election there would be any gieater chance for these claims than in the event of his defeat. I think it is a fact that no voter in any Southern Southern State has ever been urged to cast his ballot for the Democratic nominees because those were more favorable than the Republican nomi nees to reimbursing anybody for losses sustained during the rebellion. In fact, the subject has hardly ever suggested itself to our people. They do not want to make money out of Democratic victory : but what they want to preserve such rights of self government as are still left them. The people of the North may rest assured that their Southern brethren have too much intelligence, too much patriotism, too mucli saUVruspbot to harbor such selfish designs as are ascribed to them by Republican rob bers.” Gen. Lo king’s Fate in Doubt.— The London Times' account of the second disastrous Egyptaln expedi tion into Abyssinia mentions that Loring Pasha, an American officer and several others of the satne na tionality, formed part of the staff of Prince Has an, its commander, but their individual fate is not recorded The first expedition, was slaughter the second went to avenge, was to tally extermined, from the humblest soldier to the general-in-chief, the only exception being tho Count de Lichy, who was left for dead and came to, and lived for a fortnight in the midst of indiscrible suffering, crawling from place to place, sup porting himself on herbs and roots, drinking the water remaining in the flaiks of his dead companions. He was subsequently carried off as a pris oner. Tne Loring Pasha above 'referred to is Gen. W. W. Loring, formerly an officer of the United States army, and afterwards a major-general Fin the service of the Confederate States. At the close of the last civil war Gen. Loring accepted service in the army of the Khedive of Egypt, and enjoyed the reputation of being a brave and energetic officer. The reason why*the most influenti al part of the Viena press take the Turk’s part is said to he because two thirds of the leading articles are written by Jews, who also own most of the papers.
