[From tlio Franklin County Register.
This Settles It.
Mu. Kditok :—There is being .1 good deal
said i 1 some parts of this county about the
contents of a letter purporting to be from a
Mr. Harmon Martin, of Morgan count}', who :
claims to be Tax Collector of that county.
The letter is claimed to be in the hands of a
Mr. Martin in this county, who is said to be
a brother of the man Martin claiming to be
Tax Collector of Morgan county. The whole
thing is false, and gotten up to injure Col, j
Billups. The letters alleges that Col. Billups
is not good for his contracts; that he is con
sidered slow pay at home ; the truthfulness of
which I leave to the following certificate sign
ed by 44 of the business men of Madison,
Morgan county. •
And 1 want it understood that the Tax
Collector of Morgan county is named James
N. Stoddard, and not Martin.
We the undersigned merchants of Madison,
have frequently had dealings with Col. Joel
A. Billups, and always found him courteous
ami pleasant in his dealing, 9 and prompt in

Editor Forest News :—I learn that a
rumor has been circulated through your coun
ty that Col. Billups would not pay his debts.
This rumor, I learn, was started by a man in
this town, who has always acted with the
Radicals, merely to gratify a personal enmity
to Col. Billups. No man in the county pays
his debts more promptly than Col. Billups, a
truth to which every man who has had deal
ings with him will attest, llis credit here is
good for any amount that he wishes, although
he owns but little property personal!}’. His
wife owns some real estate given to her by
her father, which is personal, under our stat
ute, to herself, but she even would, if neces
sary, let the whole of that go to pay any debt
that Colonel Billups would contract. Please
publish this, and oblige
A Vindicator of tiik Truth.
To the Voters of the Ninth Congressional
District.
Bullion, Hall Cos.. Oct. 15th, 1878.
1 have now been in all the counties of the
District, and in my speeches have indicated
the measures I would advocate if elected to
Congress, and replied to the charges that had
been made against mo.
As to the charge that I applied to Gov.!
Bullock for a Judgeship, I said, and now say,
it was unqualifiedly false, and those who have |
so industriously circulated the report knew
it to he false. I denied, and now deny, that
I ever induced the colored man, Edwin
Belcher, to make speeches for me. I never
paid him, or promised to pay him, to speak
for me. Mis speaking was of his own order
ing and free will.
I alluded to the charge of taking the Iron
clad Oath and denounced it as utterly untrue,
without even the semblance of truth. A more
wanton slander was never circulated among
honest men. I never presented a claim for
property destroyed by Sherman’s army during
the war. The claim of my father was for sup
plies taken from Ids plantation in Clarke
county, after the war, by a Regiment of
Cavalry, and the question of loyalty to the
Union was in no wise involved.
My answer to the Price Card” was prompt
and explicit. 1 never, at any time, said I
could not go before the Gainesville Conven
tion without having my honor tarnished, nor
used language expressing want of respect for
that body.
The people in every county in the District
will hear me out in the assertion that, not
withstanding the numerous reports, calling in
question Mr. Speer's private character and
reflecting upon his integrity. I have not even
alluded to one of them in my speeches or in
private. Ido not propose to do so now.
But as he has recently preferred new charges
in counties 1 have recently visited and will
not have time to visit again before the elec
tion. 1 am forced to adopt this mode of sub
mining my reply and vindication to you.
Mr. Speer carries around and reads to the
audiences he addresses a certified copy of a
deed by me t myself ns trustee for my wife.
The property conveyed was paid for with
money left to her as her separate estate ho
lier father's will. The deed was not designed
to defeat creditors, nor lias it had that effect.
Mr. Speer well knows that a deed, from a
man to a member of his family, designed to
hinder, defraud or delay creditors, would be
declared void, and set aside by any court. 1
had, at the time, more due me than 1 was in
debted. and mv practice as a lawyer afforded
me means to pay all of my ex|K*nscs and
liabilities. 1 havo l>een honest in my deal
ings and prompt in my settlements, as has
recently been certilied by the business men
of the town in which I live. 1 have paid my
debts in the past and expect to do so in the
future. I own eight shares of Georgia Rail-
Tond stock, two-thirds of two hundred and
two and one-half acres of land in Morgan
county, and five-eighths of nine hundred and
fifty acres of good land in Clarke county.
I understand that Mr. Speer exhibits a cer
tificate of Mr. J. P. Smith to the effect that 1
compromised a debt of $1.1)00 for $75.00.
There is not a word of truth in this. These
are the facts : As an attorney, I had trans
acted a great deal of business for Mr. Card
well, the father-in-law of Mr. Smith, during
his life, and for his estate after his death.
Mr. Cardwell’s estate was large, and over
eighty thousand dollars of it, in form of notes,
etc., was in mv hands, as his attorney, during
his absence in Europe. I represented him in
the Courts of Greene county, and rendered
numerous and valuable services to his estate.
I owed the estate eight hundred dollars, and
upon a settlement of mutual demands, seven
ty-live dollars was found to be due from me,
and I paid it. The debt was not compro
mised for $75, but this was the balance due
and paid after presentation and acceptance
of claims from both side 9.
That I settled a debt of SI,OOO for $75, and
executed a trust deed to avoid the payment
of a debt, is absolutely and unconditionally
false. Such charges never would have seen
the light, but for the hopes of mv adversary,
that he would be enabled to employ them to
mv hurt, and possibly compass my defeat, by
using them when it would be too late for the
1 truth to be disseminated. I have spent mv
: life within thirty miles of my birth place, and
my character is known. For the first time,
and for political purposes, charges involving
my honesty and integrity are preferred
against me. My arguments in this campaign
I have not been slander and abuse of the Inde
pendent candidate. I have urged the neces
!si tv of party organization, and advocated
measures calculated to promote the happi
ness and prosperity of all of our citizens. I
have pledged to you a faithful discharge of
my duties as Congressman, should you elect
me to the high office. M v confidence in your
patriotism and intelligence assures me that
you will not now, for the first time, allow the
1 banner of the true Democracy to be trailed in
! the dust of defeat.
Respectfully. &c.. J. A. Billups.
A Card.
Editor Watchman : —There is a report,
I understand, going the rounds, to the effect
that I stated, in a public speech, at Jefferson,
August 30th, that the political contest, in
the Ninth District, was between “law, religion
and aristocracy, on the one side, and the
wool hats on the other.” I never uttered
such language as this in my life; I never
felt it, or said it. lam charged with having
made the above remark, when I was speaking
to the farmers of Jackson county. The hon
est masses were on all sides of me. Can
any one, who will reflect, for one moment,
believe that such language was used by me?
I was trying to convince the men to whom I
was speaking. I advocate the cause of the
organized Democracy. Certainly no man,
in liis senses, would have spoken such words.
I did state that lion. Barton 11. Overby, a
Speer man, of Morgan county, had written
to a friend, in Oconee county, that the race
was between “law. religion and order, on one
side, and the wool hats and the rabble, on
the other.” Nor do I agree with Mr. Overby,
in the matter. Yours, trulv.

Collision Between a Steamship and a Fish.
A collision between a steamship ami a
gigantic fish, which took place the other day
itt the vicinity of the Tong Tong Islands, is
reported by the Times o f Lnliti. The Messa
geries Maritime.? steamer Anadyr, on its
voyage to Shanghai, was suddenly brought
to a stop by a violent shock. The cause of
the collision was found to be an enormous
ray. or flat fish, estimated by those on board
to weigh from eight to ten thousand pounds.
Fhe monster was lying asleep on the top of
the water when its repose was rudely disturb
ed by a “dig in the ribs” from the stem of
the steamer. After the first alarm had sub
sided, efforts were made to haul the creature
on board ; but, owing to its unwieldiness, all
attempts in this direction proved fruitless,
and the fish, doubtless even more “shaken”
than the passengers on the boat, was reluc
tantly allowed to move off and seek such
remedies for the injury it had sustained as
i are to be procured in the mysterious deep.—

Moscow people are imlignant over the
; proposition to remove their great bell—use
less as it is—from its place in the steeple.
I They say it shall never be taken down. It
is of no earthly account, except that it is the
largest bell in the world, weighing 443,772
pounds. Moscow lias another bell that
weighs 141,000 pounds. The other famous
bells are “light weights” in comparison to
these. Pekin has one weighing 13G.000
pounds ; Novgorod, 69.000 ; Vienna, 40,000 ;
