THE ELEtTIOX.
In this supreme hour of the pending
'crisis—the struggle between liberty and
'■oppression, hone-ty and rascality—is
there a man who will hesitate about
* devoting one day to the service of his
' county ? Let every citizen of Georgia who
is able by possibility to get to the polls,
turn out next Tue-duy, and not only turn
'■ out in person, but see that all his Dem
ocratic neighbors go and vote the Demo
* cratic electoral ticket and for the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress in his Dis
-1 trict.

COrXTIXti THE EEEITORAE VOTE.
Electors of President and Vice-Presi
dent meet in their respective State capi
tals on the first Wednesday in December
after they are elected, and vote by ballot
for President, afterwards sending the re
cord of such vote to theTrcsidcnt of the
' Federal Senate. The next step will be, as
provided by a law of Congress, the count
ing of the electoral vote by the two
Houses of Congress, in joint session, on
the second Wednesday in February. By
the twenty-second joint rule of the two
Houses it is provided that they shall as
semble in the hall of the House of Rep
resentatives at one o’clock p. m. on that
day, and that the President of the Senate
shall preside. No vote objected to by
either House shall be counted, and in
case of a disagreement the Senate retires,
and both bodies deliberate on the admis
sion or rejection of the vote of any State.
In ease they agree, on reassembling, the
vote is counted, but if they do not, the
vote is not counted.— Tel. and Me**.
PUUTH'At XOTLS.
Intimidation arrests have commenc
ed in Louisiana.
Troops will be sent to Beaufort to
protect colored Democrats.
All the indie,itiotis now point to the
election of Tilden and Hendricks on
next Tuesday.
The Colorado State Senate stands:
Republicans, 19; Democrats, 7. House:
Republicans 32; Democrats, 17.
The Washington pools give 100 to 80
on the general result, 100 to 50 in Indi
ana, with 25 to 25 in Ohio, in favor of
Tilden.
W isconsin, Illinois and Ohio are all
•aid to be very wohly for Hayes, insomuch
that there is no satisfaetion iu. betting on
them for fear of loss.
Hon\ Ale xandkr 11. Stephens, who
claims that lie lias never been mistaken
in his predictions as to the result of a
Presidential election, gives it as hisopin
f'lon that Governor Tilden is certain to be
'elected President.
Ex-Gov. Brown lias been interviewed
by a Constitution reporter. He thinks
that the race for President will be very
close; with the chances decidedly favor
ing Tilden. The Ex-Governor is con
ceded to be a man of judgment.
The Dovlestown (Penn.) Democrat
thus pithily explains the appearance of
the President’s war proclamation : “ The
only excuse wo have heard given for
Grant’s proclamation is, that he was
drunk when he wrote it.” That’s suffi
cient.
At the depot in Richmond, Va., one
of the soldiers destined for South Caroli
na, standing on the platform, drew his
canteen with an air of independence, and
•aid: ‘‘Here’s to Uncle Sammy Tilden.
Hayes men stand no chance.” This was
received with cheering
Hox. Matt. H. Carpenter has fol
lowed Conkling’s example, and with
- drawn from the Haves campaign by can
celling all bis engagements to speak. It
really does look as if most of the larger
Republican rats were leaving the sink
ing ship. Carpenter’s abandonment of
the stump strengthens the already strong
probability that Wisconsin will go Dem
ocratic.
The joint gubernatorial contests in
■North Carolina closed Saturday. At the
close of the debate, Judge Settle and
Governor Vance eloquently congratula
ted each other and all the people of North
Carolina upon the uniform courtesy, fair
ness, good feeling and good order which
bad characterized the fifty-eighth contests
of the grand joint campaign. They then
•book hands amid loud applause. *
The citizens of Jersey City, N. J.,
without regard to party, have called a
meeting for the 2d of November to pro
test against the invasion of South Caroli
na. The call is signed bv leading citi
zens of the city. Some fitrv lawyers of
Philadelphia, among them some of the
most eminent in the profession, have
published a protest against Grant's pro
clamation author.;:! ng military interven
tion in South Carolina.
The New York St.i.’s Z'Hic p. the
leading German paper in the United
States, having the widest eircuhuion and
the greatest influence, expresses no doubt
pf the course which the German voters
•will take. In its issue of Monday the
tSitaaUi ZiiCunj -Lute> confidently that tiie
Jicamcrais will carry Indiana, Connecti
&at. New Jersey and Wisconsin, and that
<l|jtUocratie majority in Ohio would be
ttM apprise. It further savs: “ New
go tor Tilden and reform, and
•s Ke* York goes so the Union will go.”
Arkansas bus’yy hackers are too care
letn, entirely. They shot down three
Methodist ministers for revenue officers,
killing one and dangerously wounding
the others. TVs thing may get serious
/filer a while.

THE ROLL Of HONOR.
REESE & LANE.
This live and sterling firm is out in a
conspicuous advertisement, setting forth
the rare inducements they offer our read
ers in spring and fall goods. They have
one of the finest displays in Northeast
Georgia, and what is better, every arti
cle of the best quality. In crockery,
china and glassware,they can beat the
manufacturers. Their assortment com
prises the latest designs in there articles.
They sell nothing but the best of ware.
In tact, every department is replete with
the nicest of goods. We advise our
readers to give this reliable and clever
house a trial, and we assure them they
will never regret the same.
LONGS & BILLUPS.
There is no firm in the State that
ranks higher for integrity and honorable
transactions than this house. It is, we
believe, the oldest drug store in
Northeast Georgia, and during their long
business career, no man has ever urged
aught against either their manner of
conducting business or quality of goods.
Both members are gentlemen in the
strictest sense of the word, who would
not scruple to do a small act, even were
they assured a fortune would follow the
committal of the same. Their clerks,
Mess re Ed Long and Joe Jacobs, are
remarkably clever young men, who thor
oughly understand the business. The
simpie anounceinent that this house has
just received a large stock of fresh and
pure drugs, and other articles in their
line, is enough to secure for them a lib
eral share of the patronage of our people,
u. schevenell & co.
This name is synonomous of all that
is enterprising, first-class and reliable.
With both members of the firm we are
intimately acquainted, and can truthful
ly affirm that it is seldom one sees so
clever a pair gentlemen united in busi
ness. The manager, Mr. 8., is a self
made man ; but when we consider the
fine mind and business qualifications,
and noble heart with which nature
endowed him, we will not give him
much credit for the enviable position he
has obtained as a merchant and man—
it was his instinct, which a perverse na
ture could not overcome, even were he
endowed with that objectionable feature.
There is not a finer display of jewelry
and other goods in their line to be found
in this section than that now offered by
this house. Each department is over
stocked with the best and purest of
its class. Let our readers bear in mind
that this firm is thoroughly reliable, and
if they purchase an article from them,
they may rest assure it will prove fully
equal to the representation. Their
prices are as low as first-class goods can
be sold. Give them a call and be con
vinced for yourself. Mr. Arthur Evans,
one of the most finished jewellers in the
United States, is in their employ.
DR. E. G. MURRAII.
This gentleman announces that he is
now ready for business, and will be
pleased to serve his numerous friends in
the most satisfactory manner. He has
every instrument and all material nec
essary for the successful prosecution of
his business, and guarantees satisfaction.
The Doctor tells us he spent over §3,000
in fitting himself for the practice of den
tistry, and feels assured that no one
will ever have cause for complaint at
either his work or prices, bis motto
being “ live and let live.” Dr. M. is a
most affable and pleasant gentleman.
JAMES MILLER.
The name of this gentleman, noted
throughout the country for his sterling
integrity and honorable and successful
career as a merchant, graces our adver
tising columns this week. It is needless
for us to eulogize Mr. Miller, for his
name is a household word in the land.
He is advertising his large and miguifi
eent stock of dry goods, which for qual
ity, variety and price cannot be surpass
ed in the South. Our readers, when
they visit Augusta, are asked to give
him a call, and if they cannot be suited
from his beautiful display, it is needless
to go any further. We guarantee them,
in advance, couiteous treatment, and a
feast to the eyes of those who delight in
examining dry and dress goods.
THE LIVE BOOT AND SHOE JEAN.
Mr. Peter Keenan, of Augusta, has,
without doubt, the finest boot and shoe
establishment in the State ; and what is
better, he is not afraid to let the people
know it through the press. While in
that city last Friday, we “interviewed”
his stock, and found it complete, in the
fullest acceptation of the term. Mr.
Keenan is one of the kindest and clev
erest gentlemen we ever met, and it is
always a treat to be in his pleasant socie
ty. He is liked by {every one, and for
integrity and fairness of dealing stands
unsurpassed. Let our readers, if they
desire any article in the boot and shoe
line, give Peter Keenan a call, and if
they do not say they were justly dealt by
and received gentlemanly treatment, we
will “ foot the bill.”
A .lust Tribute to our County Com
missioners.
Editor Oglethorpe Echo:
I see in your last week’s paper the
presentments of the Grand Jury, at the
late session of the Superior Court of our
county. These presentments evidently
show a very heaimy state of affairs gen
erally, ancl obtain the approval ol ail
our citizens. I was particularly pleased
to see the words of commendation in
which that body spoke of our Board of
County Commissioners. Those of us
who have kept pace with the passing
events, so far as the public affairs of the
county are concerned, cannot fail to see
that this Board is a wise and paying
institution for our people, and 1 think,
in the language of the Grand Jury, “that
too much cannot be said in commenda
tion of” them, for the condition of things
clearly show the material of which the
Board is made. The county taxes have
been very perceptibly reduced, notwith
standing the purchase of the Pauper
Farm and the cost of the buildings
thereon. Even in this particular they
have saved the county several thousand
dollars, and I am informed by some of
the members ol the Board that, with the
prospects ahead, they will be enabled to
make a still greater reduction in our
taxes next year. It is needless to review
the actions of the Commissioners in de
tail through these four years they served
the county, for the facts are plain and
the results are convincing to the most
skeptical. The people want low taxes,
and he who hoes the most towards light
ening our burden iu this respect is our
greatest benefactor, and should be re
garded by the hearty indorsement of his
fellow-citizens.
The peuple throughout the county so
far as 1 have heard an expression, and 1
have heard a good many speak of it, are
satisfied that the gentlemen have left
nothing undone that could have been
done to accomplish this result, and to do
the greatest amount of good for the peo
ple at large. This is why I was pleased,
uay gratified, when I real '.lie present
ments oi the Grand Jury to see them, as
the .conservators of the county and the
supervisor- of the public affairs, bestow
upon our Board their sanction and ap-
proval. This reward does not exceed
incir merit.
This brings me to another point of
which 1 wish to speak belore closing: i'lie
term of office of the present Board of
Commissioners expires tiii- winter, and
ol course anew Board must be elected.
I think the general sentiment is to re
elect the same men who constitute the
present body, as their own successors,
and I am convinced that we will act the
part of wisdom to do so. I know per
sonally all of them, and I do not Hatter
them when 1 say that they are all
gentlemen of sterling integrity, high-ton
ed, intelligent, public spirited, patriotic
citizens, wno have the public weal at
heart, as the result of tneir labors plain
ly show. It is made up from our best
class ot citizens, and we could not im
prove on it. Besides all this, they have
the advantage of four years’experience,
and have, so to speak, got the hang oi
tilings. They have had to contend with
a great many difficulties, which they
have met and overcome, There are oth
ers yet to battle with which they see in
the future, that will be more easily re
moved with the experience they have
acquired in the past.
l'iiis Board of Commissioners is a very
important institution to the tax-payers
of Oglethorpe county, as they are inves
ted with a good deal of authority, and
much harm might result to us by placing
incompetent or dishonest men in it.
Hence the necessity of keeping faithful,
honest servants when we have tried
them. Ido not know the private feel
ings of the present members on this sub
ject. I know their duties are sometimes
irksome, and the emoluments are noth
ing, yet, as good ancl patriotic citizens,
we take it for granted that they cannot,
nor will not excuse themselves if called
on to serve the county another term. 1
know also that we have a great many
good men who are just as competent in
every way, but they lack the experience,
and I honestly think, Mr. Editor, that it
is unwise and often works injury to re
move public officers who have been tried
and served faithfully and honestly the
people who have placed them in posi
tions of trust. The public interest de
mands that the present Board of Com
missioners be kept in office another term.
When I say this, 1 believe 1 but echo
the sentiment of a unanimous public
opinion. Vox Popull
