Th Important* to * Tow* nf Supporting ita I.oral Newspaper, We came here a year ago to build up a first-class weekly newspaper. hoped to receive such a patron age, notwithstanding the stringency of the times, as would enable us to carry out that object without too great embarrassment. Favorably circumstanced in some particulars, the expenses of the publication of The Express has been comparative ly small; but in the face of that fact, it has pressed us very severely to procure the means with which to buy paper and pay absolute expenses necessary to keep the paper going. True, our circulation has grown very rapidly, but a great deal of this is out on credit, the people not naving the means with which to pay in ad vance. In this we have been more lenient to subscribers than we are really able to be, but have been will ing to extend all the accommodation we could. OUR ADVERTISING PATRONAGE. There is hut little income to a p per from subscriptions. No paper in this section of country can live upon its subscription lists. The paying business is that of advertising. Without "that class of patronage, there could scarcely be a paper pub lished in Georgia/ With but a few exceptions the business men of Car tersville have given The Express but little advertising—far less than that given to any other paper in Georgia published in towns of equal size. The reason given is that the times are hard and business has con tinued dull and unremunerative: This we admit, because it is true. But at the same time it should be re membered that thrift will only follow the industry and enterprise of a town in its business men making them selves and what they have to sell known to the people. That begets business and trade, because of the constant attention being called to what the business men are doing. If every respectable business man or house in Cartersviile would keep live advertisements in The Expres we have no doubt that it would have the effect of increasing the trade of the town and improving its general condition, though times are hard and money scarce. We hear of other towns doing pretty well. Why should not Cartersviile improve, es pecially when she has a creditable newspaper with a splendid circula tion with which to make the business inducements of the town made known. IMPORTANCE OF A LOCAL PAPER. There are none so ignorant as to de ny the importance of a local paper to a town. Every intelligent man ad mits it, and every liberal business man practically recognizes it, though he may not agree with it in all the positions it may take on public or po litical questions. There is no paper in Georgia better known than The Express, and it gives to the town a prominence it could not possibly have without a local press. A town unknown can never prosper or pro gress on the road to growth and prosperity. None will deny these facts, except selfish and narrow m inded bigots. These statements be ing true, it is evident to the mind of every intelligent man that, to h'ave a useful local paper, it must be sus tain ?d with some degree of liberali ty, not as charity, but as an impor tant and indispensable institution of the town. A publsher should not he made to feel that he is a mendicant upon the stinted support of an un willing patronage. A WORD TO MERCHANTS AND BUSI- NESS MEN. As we have said, our advertising patronage has been limited, very limited. We have struggled to give Cartersville at least a respectable lo cal paper—one that is recognized over the State as a leading paper. We desire to continue it as such ; but it must be supported. Cartersville is able to support such a paper to the ad vantage of the town and its interests. We cannot and do not expect the lib eral advertising patronage that better I times would give us. We want to ! be relieved of the constantly harass | ing annoyancejjof not knowing from | week to week how we shall meet ab ! solute expenses. That would enable us to present *aj much better paper, still more creditable to the business ! enterprise of the town. We simply appeal to the merchants and business men of the town to sus | tain us as well as the stringency of the times will permit them. It will improve the business prospects of all, and we shall have one of the best papers in the South. Fire in Delias. We regret to learn that our old friend, Mr. G. W.

Grave questions may arise; probably w ill arise, and my hope is that a spirit of moderation and calmness may possess every pie in ber, I would deprecate excitement, and so far as lies in my power shall try to allay it.

Radical Ncoundreliant as Exhibited in Three Free States. The Hell-Born Infamies of a Defeated Party. We give below the latest news from the three throttled States ot the South, as we gather the most of it from the Atlanta Constitution, to which the people of this State are greatly indebted for most of their information of the doings of Radical ism iu Florida, Louisiana and South Carolina. FLORIDA. Tallahassee. Nov. 28.—T0-day has been the field day of the cam paign. It was ascertained this morn ing that the Republicans were claim ing a certain majority for Hayes. The Democrats were unable to sus pect where the fraud by which they were going to reverse the Tilden majority with would be procured. examined all re turns carefully and figured up a ma jority of 129 for Tilden, after giving the Radicals every contested vote. When the board met it was discover ed that the returns of the very second county called (Baker) had been doctored. The duplicate of the official returns in the,Democrats hands showd that it was Democratic by 95 majority. When it was read out from the re turn it gave 51 Republican majority. Then the Democrats rose up and .alked out in the meeting. They protested against the count and ad journed for dinner. The bogus re turn from Baker made a change of 136 votes and gave the State to Hayes by 36 votes. The excitement ran high at dinner, and in the evening Mr. Pasco, for the Democrats, arose and charged that the chairman of the board had received a return from Baker differ ent from the one he had read, and that he had illegally suppressed it. After a short but bitter discussion, in which Pasco pressed him merci lessly, he confessed that he had re ceived such a return. Pasco then demanded that it be read to the board. After another sharp spat this was done, under much confus sion. The original return gives Tilden 97 majority and elects his electors by about 135 majority. The victory is a splendid one, and will stand, and now when you want to write a bright and brightening name write “Pasco.” H. W. G. Tallahassee, Fla., Nov. 28. The board met at 10 o’clock. Present the gentlemen heretofore reported. The face of the returns shows Hayes 7,460. Tilden 7,418, a republican ma jority of 43. The Republicans give notice of a contest in 19 counties, the Democfats in 9. Dade county not in and will not go 25 majority The Democrats clainj 23 votes in Dade county which was evidently omitted and conceded, leaving a Republican majority of 10. There are two re turns from Baker county, the first giving 94 Democratic'majority; the second 41 republican majority. The last and latest are signed by the judge and sheriff, but not by the clerk, and the difference is made by throwing out several Democratic precincts. Adjourned to four o’clock. Tallahassee, Nov. .28.—The-fol lowing gentlemen were present at the count fur the Republicans: Gen. Barlow of New York, Messrs. Ampt and Noyes, 6i Ohio, Lew Wallace aim Mr. Brady, of Indiana, W. E. Chandler, of New Hampshire and several local politicians; lor the Dem ocrats appeared Messrs. Manton Mar ble and Paris’ of New York, G. W. Biddle, D. W. Sellers, J. R. Read, Sam G. Thompson, Malcom Hay and G. W. Guthrie, of Pennsylvania; C. W. Wooley, of Ohio; L, Salton stall, of Massachusetts; John T. Coyle of Washington, Charles Gibson, of Missbnri; Perry Smith, of Illinois; Gov. J. E. Browoi and P. M. B. Young, of Georgia,, with several local politicians, and Gen. Brannon, of the United. States army, had seats inside the railing with the Board. Tallahassee, Nov. 13.—Mr. Pasco for the Democrats, insisted that the return from Baker connty predating the one read, had been sent to the board, and demanded to know by whom. The secretary then read returns presented by the clerk and jussice, and properly attested, which gave Democratic ■majority. . With these returns, ad mitted, Tilden electors have 135 ma jority. With both returns held sub ject to a future decision, the Demo crats have two electors by five ma jority. one by three and the Eepubli cans have one elector by one major ity. LOUISIANA. New Orleans, Nov. 28.— Usual attendance. General Anderson made another personal explanation. Judge Spofford suggested that the beard should issue peremptory oiders to the supervisors to return certain parishes that are largely Democratic, Wells said the supervisors were entirely in dependent of the board, if they are not here they cannot be counted. Mr. Gauthriaux asked if certified copies in district courts could not be produced, as the law provided for the use of these copies when the original returns were lost or could not be pie pared. Gov. Wells said he had already ruled on point and thought it was unnecessary to say more about it, the copies would not be received. Mr. Gathriaux and Judge Spofford urged the necessity of o> dering su pervisors to. make their returns. Gov. Wells said he would give an order if the returns were not pro duced by Wednesday.., “Ouachita parish was taken up to the surprise oj the Democrats, East Baton Rouge being fixed for to-day. Four negroes were introduced aud examined orally. After a discussion in which the visiting committees participated, the Democrats were al lowed to cross examine. The wit nesses testimony was as to intimida tion and outrages and they were very diffuse in their statements. The democrats will introduce rebutting testimony to-morrow, when the con sideration of the Ouachita case will be resumed. SOUTH CAROLINA. BURNING OK WADE HAMPTON’S HOUSE. Columbia Nov. 28. —Wade Hamp ton’s house, near Columbia, was burned, two young children aud his sisters escaping in their nightclothes. Incendiary. THELEGTSLATURE IN THE HANDS OF THE Xy LIT ARY. Columbia, Nov. 28,—Senator Gor don has just sent a long telegram to Hon. Wm. Evarts, Wm. Cullen Bryant and Whitelaw Reid, inform ing them of the occupation of the State House by soldiers with order from Dennis Chamberlain’s partisan, to admit no One except with passes, from Tones aud Dennis. 'The Democrats have gone to the State House with a solemn protest against the outrage. The Republi cans admit their partisans, but- must back down from such proceedings. MILITARY VILLI ANY. Columbia, Nov. 28.—The Demo cratic members were rejected upon their certificates from the Supreme court, by the sentinels under arms at the door of the H ill. The Dein< o ats thereupon withdrew, and are now in session in another hall. The interference of Gen, Ruger here is incomparably more defensible than that by uen. Sheridan iu New Orleans. He says his orders were exceeded. Some of the Republicans are aban doning the revolutionists in disgust. G. | Columbia, Nov. 28.—The United States troops have poaession of the State House, and refused admission to the Edgtield and Laurens delega tions, they being Democratic. FROM WELL’S FIRST MOVE. Columbia, Nov, 28. Atmiduight j last night the Stale House wasoecupied by UniP-d States troops No one was allowed to enter without a pass from Mr. Jones, clerk of the late House, or Mr. Dennis, one of Chamberlain’s men. About 9 o’clock General Gordon. United States Sen- j ator from Georgia, and General Johnsou, United States Senator of; Virginia, Messrs. Peck and Jefferies, members of the Legislature, demand ed admittance. The rotunda was filled with troops and arms were stacked arouud the I Washington statue. The members of ! the Legislature ex limited their, certi ficates from the Supreme court of their election, and the eoporal of the guards ; refused them admittance under the orders of Denuis, who was standing by. The Democratic mem bers then met in caucus, ami abouj 11:15 proceeded in a body to demand admittance. In the meantime Gen. Hampton had an interview with Gen, Huger who then changed orders so as to allow any one to pass the sentinels who claimed to be elected members of the Legislature. Under this change of orders all the members are being admitted slowly, as the corporal of the guard examines their identials. The members are thusad mitted to the State House but not to the hall of the Senate or that of the House of Representatives. GOING UP THE STEPS. Columbia, Nov. 28.—The dele gates proceeded to the door of the door of the hall, headed by the Edgefield and Laurens delegates. Six soldiers on either side guarded the entrance, and in which tw'o of ficers stood. The certificates of the Edgfield ane Laurens members were presented and were decided to be in valid by the door-keepers, when the Democrats all retired and assembled in front of the State House, from the steps of w’hich the following was read in the presence of the military and citizens: THE LEGISLATURE PROTECT. Columbia, S. C. November 23. We, a majority of the members| of the House of Representatives protest against the military power of the United Stotes barring the passage into the State House of members elect of the Legislature. We protest against the legality of this proceed ings, and especially against the army of the United States being placed for the purpose of this prevention, under command of one John B. Dennis, a partisan of Gov. Chamberlain. We protest against the said Dennis’ in struction to the guard to admit ho one to the state-house except upon his own pass of A. O. Jones, former clerk of the house who may thus exclude all except his own partisans and . who by the republi can programme is to organize the said house. We have presented ourseLves with the judgment of the highest court of South Carolina, cei tified to by its clerk, with the great seal pf the court attached, as to our right to participate in the organiza tion of the said house. We are re fused by order of said Dennis, admis sion to said hail except upon his pass or tbp pass of said Jones, or the cer tificate of Hayne, Secretary of State, who Is now under condemnation of said Court for refusal to issue certift catesin accordance with its judg ment and mandate.] On protesting against this bare faced usurpation, this trampling on the laws and constitutian of the State it is our purpose to offer no re sistance to this armed intervention, but to make our solemn appeal to the American people without dis tinction of party. Our veneration of law, pur respect for the Supreme Court, and theusage of Jail legislative assemblies forbid our participation in such unprecedented and revolution ary proceedings. Signed by all the Democratic mem bers, 61 in number. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 28. —The Democratic members elect to the House of Representatives met at 7 p. m. in Carolina Hall. Sixty-four democrats and two republicans par ticipated and were sworn in by Judge Cook. The house organized and will claim recognition to-morrow. This leaves fifty-eight in the Republican house one less than a quorum claimed by them, and five less than the nuin cer which the Democrats claim is necessary for a quorum. Each House will demand of ;the Secretary ot the State the returns of the vote for Gov ernor. All quiet to-night. The supreme court has not yet de cided the question of counting the doctoral vote. Columbia, S. C. Nov. 28.—The Democratic members, before being allowed to enter the State House, were required to surrender their pri vate arms, which were promptly given up; but were again stopped at the hall door. The Republican mem bers were not questioned regarding arms. The Federal officer asked General Hampton, who was in the State House to prevent the crowd from passing in. Hampton appeared at the ‘front steps and addressed the crowd: “My friends, I am truly doing what I have been earnestly doing dui ing this whole ex citing contest, “pouring oil on tue troubled waters” It is of the greatest importance to us all as citizens of South Carolina, that peaee should be preserved. I appeal to you all, white nit n and colored, vb Carolinians to ue every effort to keep down violence and dis turbance. Oue act of violence may precipi tate bloodshed aud desolation. I implore you then to preserve the pence. I beg all of my friends to disperse, to leave the grounds of the capital, aud I advise all the colored meu to do the same. Keep perfectly quiet, leave the streets, and do nothing to provoke a liot. We trust to the law aud the Constitution, aud we have perfect faith iu the justice of our cause. The whites immediately dispersed, followed by a great many colored people. Charleston, Nov. 28. Jones, clerk of the House, called the roll and fifty-nine answered, which he declared a quorum. E. W. M. Macky took the chair. In explanation of these proceedings, it may be stated that a full House consists of 124 and 63 is a quorum. The Democrats, in cluding disputed members are (14 Rejzui>lleans, when all are present 6T). The Republicans claim that a majority of those to whom certifi cates have been issued make a quo lum. The House went to work with fifty-nine and members sworn in. Jones, the former clerk sworn in. BUSINESS PARALYZED. Charleston, Nov. 28.
