Congress and Radical Rascality.
On motion to relieve the Committee on
Privileges and Elections from further consid
eration of the case of Senator Butler, from
South Carolina. Mr. Thurmond charged that,
for five weeks, the Senate had been in ses
sion. on an average, only one and a half
norns per day ! And that a considerable
portion of the members had been spending
their time in attending theatres and horse
races. No one denied the charge, but one
of the Committee retorted that Thurmond was
oneoftiie sports ! This he a lmitted, bnt charg
ed that the Committee by unnecessary delays
had kept business from the Senate, and hence
the members were idle.
Mr. Hill, a member of the Committee, fa
vored the motion to relieve. He, and seve
ral other democrats, intimated t! at the Com
mittee had temporized, and that conclusions,
in reference to t he contested seats, might have
been reached before now. We thus place be
fore the country another record of the black
crime, of Black republicans, for this Commit
tee is republican by about two to one. Our
people have been clamorous for immediate re
lief by a repeal of the iniquitous resumption
act, and by a restoration of silver as legal
money. The republicans are sure of a ma
jority' as the Senate now stands; but if the
contested seats were filled by the men who
have been fairly and justly elected thereto,
that majority might not lie so secure ; and
hence the temporizing until after the disposi
tion of these important bills. Let the people
of the South and West remember it.
lIOW THE SOUTH HAS BEEN SWINDLED.
When the bond rings in Wall street could no
longer keep down the price of cotton, by the
cry of “ crowded markets,” they resorted to
the abominable iniquities of “specie resump
tion” and silver demonetization, for the pur
pose of swindling labor in general, and de
pressing the price of cotton in particular.—
For they, thereby', greatly reduced the circu
lating medium, and in addition to this, the
scoundrels locked up nearly and
in 1875 they reduced the flow of money to the
South so low. that the means could not be
had to purchase the cotton when it, was car
ried to market bv the farmers. That was the
sole, and almost the only cause of the great
crisis which came on the country'. Yet these
wretches wish to perpetuate this huge swin
dle. Let our farmers and our colored friends
remember this. The circulating medium is
so small, that with every' dollar free, it is not
sufficient to carry on the commerce of the
country, and these bond rings, can, almost
any week, shut off from circulation, nearl y one
third of it; and they certainly would have
done so this fall, and reduced, the price of cot
ton to seven or eight cents, but they were
afraid of the effects on these iniquitous bills,
which the democrats are now trying to re
peal and which the republicans, in the inte
rest of bond rings, arc trying to perpetuate.
W e are glad to announce the doom of these
oppressive measures, and to herald the relief
which must soon come to the hard pressed la
borers.
Let our people keep it, in mind, that it was
these unjust laws, which, not only swindled
us out of our cotton crops in 1875 and ’76.
but. brought on the riots last summer, the
big taxes to redeem untaxed bonds in the
hands of rich republicans and the hard times
of to-day’. The South made good crops this
year; but the people here can not pay their
debts, simply because there is little more than
half et nough money in circulation to carry on
the trade of the count ry. This whole scheme
of “contraction” and “resumption” was a
stupendous fraud, gotten up by’ a Republican,
bond-ridden Congress in the name of honesty;
a cloak, under which that party have done
most of their dirty work. No wonder! that
the colored people have abandoned such a
corrupt organization ; but it is a wonder that
some honest Democrats allow themselves to
he duped by this trick of the bond rings.
For want of money, wages North have been
reduced so low that thousands on thousands
are almost starving for bread now ; and the
winter has just begun ; and yet, these wretch
es are temporizing and trying to defeat the
only measures which can bring any relief.—
And why ? that a few who are immensely rich
and do not work for the common good, may
grow richer, and the poor laborers who work
for the country, may starve to death. There
will be a fearful reckoning yet, for this repub
lican party and their bloated bondholders,
who have brought this suffering and ruin up
on us.
THE NEW SILVER BILL
Provides for the coinage of the silver dollar
to the amount of four millions per month, and
not less than two millions per month; and
silver shall, as formerly, be a legal tender.
THE FOREIGN RELATIONS
Committee recommended the confirmation of
Hilliard. Just here we would remark that
this committee may soon have to examine our
relations with Mexico, as there are now strong
indications of a rupture between that govern
ment and ours.
VACANT SEATS.
The Senate will probably seat Kellogg
(Rep.) and Butler and Eustis, (Denis.) The
committee have already recommended Kel
logg. Conover (rep.), from Florida, will vote
with Democrats for Butler and Eust is. Con
gress will probably hold over till next ses
sion.
UsTThe removal question, in a great meas
ure, has been unjustly argued, especially by
those who favor Milledgcville. We would
cheerfully submit to the will of the people, if
the facts were laid fairly before the voters.
One point worthy of note is, who sustained
Bullock's administration, by which Georgia
was wronged out of millions. While we do
not find fault with those democrats who were
overpowered by the radical element in their
midst, and were represented by Bullock's
followers, yet we do object to their charging
those frauds upon the. democracy of north
and east Georgia, who battled against and
finally overthrew the thieves that infested
our state capital. If these frauds are charge
able to any section of the state, they are
chargeable to the section that was represent
ed by radicals in our state legislature. It
does not argue well for their honesty of pur
pose. when they seek to place these frauds
upon the innocent. Those counties that are
most clamorous for Milledgcville were repre
| seated by radicals. —Rome Tribune.
THE ELECTION
Next Week!
VITAL ISSUES TO BE DECIDED—LET
EVERY VOTER BE AT THE POLLS.
One of the most important elections since
the war, will be held next \Y ednesday’.
Our people, on that day’, will decide wheth
er they will continue their old Constitution,
under which they have suffered from corrup
tion and oppression, or will accept the one
proposed by their own representatives, and
framed for the purposes of protection and
economy. We suppose there can hardly’ be
two opinions as to what their decision will be
on this question, hence, we do not propose
to discuss its merits, but we would urge
voters to turn out en masse, and by the larg
est vote ever cast in Georgia, express their
emphatic desire for honest and economical
government.
There is, however, another issue, on which
the people of our State are more evenly’
divided, and which, to us in Jackson, is of
little less importance, as to its practical re
sults. We refer to the permanent location
of our State Capital. Let not our people
consider this a matter of small importance.
Many a man has built his house hastily’ or
carelessly and, after it was too late, felt a
life long regret for some convenience which
lie had neglected to work into the plan.
As to the choice between Atlanta and
Milledgeville, our people, if they’consult their
own interest and convenience, cannot hesitate
fur one moment. The prosperity of Atlanta
means the prosperity of Northeast Georgia;
while we have not one-fourth of the local in
terest in Milledgeville that we have in Mont
gomery’. Alabama. By her Air-Line Rail
road and its branches, Atlanta has caused
all the development in Northeast Georgia
which has occurred since the war; and she
is therefore eminently our own city. She
has been built up largely by’ capital from our
section and a large proportion of her leading
and controlling minds went from this part
of the State: and she is therefore ours in
heart and interest.
As to the matter of convenience, we need
not even suggest, that Atlanta has immeasu
rably the advantage. Almost any man in
Jackson can make two trips to Atlanta in the
time, and at the cost of one to Milledgeville.
It is the opinion of the wisest and best
men in Georgia that the location of the Cap
itol in Atlanta will be best for the whole
State; and our columns have contained
many strong arguments to sustain that opin
ion. If then, in supporting Atlanta, wc are
not only for our own interest, but for the good
of the State, let us work with a will, and
with all the power and energy we can com
mand. If we do not, the time will certainly
come when we will deeply’ regret it.
Then let every voter be at the polls on that
day; and however he may decide for other
issues, let him cast one vote for Atlanta.—
Let old Jackson roll up such a tide for the
metropolis of the South, that the world can
have no doubt as to her understanding the
interest of our section, or her pride in her
portion of the State. Let her prove herself,
on tins question, the banner county of Geor
gia, in the interest of progress, as she has
long been the leader of Democracy’, in this
port ion of the commonwealth.
Turn out men, and secure your interest
while you can !
From Plevna.
A correspondent reports that lie had just,
soon a telegram from Russian headquarters,
ordering supplies for the Turks in Plevna.
Osman Pasha, who was in command at Plev
na. had agreed to surrender that place, to the
his supplies were exhausted ; and
the Russians had agreed to furnish him pro
visions so soon, we suppose, as the surrender
was made. This, if true, is very important
news.
THE 111 SSI AX EOncES
about Plevna, are said to be greater than
ever before, and .it has been thought for weeks
that the fall of Plevna was only a question of
time. If Osman Pasha's army fall into the
hands of the Russians it will be a long stride
towards pence. It is said that Austria is
adopting active measures in that direction.
England is also becoming much excited, and
some of her officials are insisting that the
Russians advance no nearer Constantinople,
but agree to terms of peace.
The above is the latest news from Europe.

IX THE EAST.
Murkhtar Pasha defies the Russians.—
General MelikofF sent information of the fall
of Kars to Murkhtar Pasha in Erzcroum and
demanded a surrender of the latter place or
he would attack it with 80.000 men and a
great amount of heavy artillery. Murkhtar
replied, declining to surrender, and stated he
would " fight it out to the last.” We have
some hope that peace may soon come.
The celebrated dog case which has been
occupying the attention of the courts in Au
gusta, and which was carried up on certio
rari from the Recorder's Court to the Superior
Court, was decided on Monday by Judge
Gibson, who rendered the following unique
decision: ‘*ln all governments, Federal.
State or municipal, organized and evented by
the people, where a free and clear expression
of their will through their selecte 1 represen
tatives is made, it is the duty of the judiciary
to enforce that will, unless violative of some
fundamental principle of that government,
and to authorize courts to disregard it, the
violation should be plain and palpable. I
am a friend to good dogs, and believe their
creation not accidental but designed, yet
many useless curs may prove a curse, and if.
as counsel stated, we have now in Augusta
five thousand, I fear in this time of great
scarcity of breadstuff's, we are overstocked,
and think that a sound public policy mav
require their diminution, and therefore sus
tain this certiorari and order the court below
to enter judgment for the fine imposed by the
ordinance of Council.” The case will pro
bably be carried to the Supreme Court.
