TUESDAY DECEMBER 3rd 187b,
The Democratic Party ancl the
lteeent Election!*.
Less than six months ago the
Democratic party, flushed with
success, ami enthused with what
appeared to he weli-touuded hope,
was eager looking forward to the
next presidential election as the
time when the cohorts ot radical
ism and corruption would, not on
ly bo defeated, but would be so
overwhelmed with the scorn and
indignation of an outraged people
that they would never again be
able to rally under the old party
flag.
All this has been changed as by
touch of the magician's wand :—
to-day the Democratic party is des
pondent, and has not recovered
from astonishment at the results
ot the recent elections in the north-
Klection >t »l mitres
The following is the result, of
the election for Judges by the Gen
eral Assembly on the 21st u't :
Augusta Circuit—Hon,Claiborn
Snead 139, 0. C. Jones, Jr., 23
and Gibson 52.
Brunswick Circuit—Hon. John
L, Harris, 190 and Mershon 14.
Flint Circuit—A. M. Speer and
J. S. Boynton ran neck and neck
until the home stretch,when Speer
ran ahead and won. The 11 mil
vote s»o id Speer 112, Boynton 88
and John L. Floyd,(withdrawn)!).
Macon Circuit—T. J. Simmons
178, W. L. Grice 29.
Middle Circuit—Hon, Herschel
V. Johnson was re-elected with
out opposition by 202 votes.
Ocmulgee Circuit—George T.
Bartlett 52, Augustus Reese 40,
T, J. Lawson 121. This was the
final result after several changes.
Pataula Circuit—Arthur Hood
was re-elected by a vote of 121 to
S. C. Hoyle's 89.
Rome Circuit—Hnti. J, t J. W.
II. Underwood was also re-elect
ed, the final vote after changes
being, Underwood 127, W, H
ern and northwestern Stutes. In.
the Stales last named, the lenders Dabney 31 J. W. beatheratone
of the party had assured us they
were ceitain of success; but alas!
alas ! “the plaus of men and
mice oft gang aglee,” and so it
turned out in this case; for had it
not been for a “solid South,” our
party would have lost control
of the House of Representatives in
38, Alexander 16
Southern Circuit—Hon. A. H.
Hansell was re-elected, after thir
ty-five years’ service, without op
position. He received 2UU votes,
some members being absent.
Western circuit — After the
changes the vote stood : Alexan-
the next Congress, and with it all 1^ S Erw ‘ n ,' 12,i: B EhUw > 4;
d-1 Winn (withdrawn), 19.
The closest contest was in the
I Flint. There were no secoud bal-
*
hope of electing the m xt Brest
dent.
If we are to judge the future of ] J
the party trom the results of the
recent Congression elections, it
will we think, be obvious to all,
that if the Democratic party is to
succeed in 1880, no more blunders
must be made and dissensions
must cease in our ranks.
The position of the party in
some of the States with reference
to the financial question was, to
put it mildly, a great. bluuder,und
must therefore be abandon td. It.
was a blunder because it was direct
ly the reverse of common honesty,
and it therefore arrayed the party
against the virtue, intelligence
and wealth of the country; and,
any party that does this, cannot
succeed.
Again, the great State of New
York was lost to us because of
dissensions in the party; it is
therefore uncertain which party
will carry it iu 1880. This being
true, we will need every electoral
vote to which the South is enti
tled, to elect the next President.
Can the entire South he carried
by the Democrats in 1:280? We
unhts tatingly answer that it can,
and will if our people are not as
blind as owls to their own well-
fare and the mighty interest in
volved, To do this however, there
must he no more dissensions
amongst us; office seekers must
not he permitted to dely the laws
of the patty with impunity; “in-
dependentism" must be frowned
down, and “independent” candid
ates considered as enemies to the
party aud the welfme of the coun
t»y.
This course, and this course
only will give us success. Wt
know of no better time than nov
to start out upon it. Let. the p«o-•
pleall over our state tesolve to sup-' tlui l*.ft.-
port none hut the regular nominees;
of the party even lor county offi
cers. If this is done, harmony will
pervade our ranks, and our a?ms
will be nerved to strike a blow
that will kill radicalism so dead
it will never more arise to vex the
land. ^__
The Fori\-Filth Congress, Sec
ond Sesoion, assembled on yester
day in Washington. The session
will doubtless give most of its
time to the discussion of the cur
rency question. With this Con
gress expires the Republican ma
jority in the Senate.
