Let the candidates declare themselves and plant themselves upon a platform of principle n regard to the political issues, now agitat ing the public mind. We regard as extremely necessary, that our Legislative aspirants should publish a declaration of principles. Come up to the scratch gentlemen ! Sanders, the lemonade man was on hand at Center Hill “cooling inner humanity.” Mrs. David Lyle is very feeble. One of Jim Queen’s cotton patches became so grassy, that he wished somebody would turn their cows on it—this is what John Moon tells.

Moffett— Dear Sir —l cannot too strongly recommend your Teethina (Teething Powders) to mothers as one of the best medicines they can obtain for their debili tated and sickly infants. I have used it with very satisfactory results the past summer with my own child, and while we have here tofore lost a child or two from teething under other remedies, our present child that has taken Teethina is a fine healthy boy. Its merits is certain to inarcc it a standard family medicine for this country for the irri tations-of teething and bowel disorders of children of all ages. I am, very respectfully, A. P. BROWN, M. D. (Brother ex-Gov. Jos. E. Brown. BTCoI. J. B S- Davis will preach the commencement sermon of Lartiu Institute on the 4th of July proximo. Our Railroad Again. Mr. Editor: — l fear that our people con sider our Railroad already built. At least, they seem to have settled into an idle security ; ami they are now listening for the whistle to blow. True, Gainesville has voted for the bonds; and these bonds are ready to be placed : The money can be raised on them in a few days: We have abundant means to commence the work, and I suppose the survey-ors will be in the field before this meets the eyes of your readers. We will have enough money to carry the work on for some lime ; but Jackson county has not filled her subscription yet. We are more vitally interested than Gainesville. >She has the Air-Line and will soon have a branch to the richest mining region in the state. Her prosperity is secured even with out our aid. We have no facilities of this kind ; but we have a brilliant opportunity-, such as will not probably- be presented again in the next fifty years. It is not impossible that we may lose this chance, if we do not meet our obligations promptly. I have leceived and heard many congratulations from some of the wisest and most far seeing men in middle and upper Georgia, expressing their confidence in our bright future if our Railroad is completed. The3 T think, as I do, that Jackson county can be made one of the richest sections in the South. Can we pos sibly sleep now over our interests ? Can we possibly- rest till the enterprise is perfectly secuaed ? Some two or three thousand dollars are yet lacking to fill out our minimum sub scription. We can raise not only that but enough to equip and run our own road. This would make it doubly valuable to our people. Fellow citizens, let 113 have it so we can easily secure the means to complete the road by the fall season. Why not ? Let those icho are holding off, come forward and sub scribe at once. There cannot possibly be any further excuse for delay-, success is in our own hands. Let not a miserable selfishness cheat us of superior facilties and possible wealth by holding on to a few dimes in hand. I suggest, Mr. Editor, that, so soon as the crops are laid by, we have a large barbacue in this place, and that all the people be in vited to participate with us ; and thus, at cue stroke, we may secure the means to place this enterprise far ab.ive any contingency. Let us hear from the Directors ; and if all the stock is not taken immediately, let them appoint committees to carry this plan into operation next month. We must have the Railroad ; we would be worse than imbeciles to lose this opportunity, which will increase our property by thousands and even millions. Let all arouse themselves and go to work. J. W. Glenn. Still Organized. Editor Forest News:—Dear sir, in your issue ot 11th inst. I find the following state ment. The Gainesville Southron otlsets Jim Turnbull’s desertion of Speer, by claiming to have made a convert of Mr. Robt. White of tills county. In the Southron of the Bth inst. appears an article headed “ Uncle Boh White an independent.” I did not at first think of paying any attention to either of these articles but have since concluded to take some notice. The short article making a cah for a meeting of tiie Democratic party of Jackson county written by me and pub lished in your paper, was not intended as you know to bring my name before the peo ple, it was signed “ Democrat' 5 my own name given for your own use in accordance with journalistic requirements. An enquiry had been made in a previous issue of tiie News for the member of the Executive Committee for this county, I ventured to give as 1 be lieved the necessary information, at the same time making the call which has afforded an opportunity to tiie editor of the Gainesville Southron to publish an article, which after all is more remarkable lor its Bobbery and misrepresentation than any other quality. Perhaps Mr. Lawshe felt grieved that his name is mentioned as one opposed to con ventions of the Democratic party-, surely of this he ought not to complain* the words menagerie, ring, trickster &c. were not long since familiar in his vocabulary and may, for ought I know, be yet, there may have been a change recently, and I am admonished 1 >3* the gentlemans graceful acceptance of a po sition as delegate to the recent convention at Atlanta that such is probably the case, if this be truly so I can freely say come on Peter we will receive your back into the fold only requiring that for a time 3-011 occupy a back seat as a means of preventing future wan derings. Five times in your short article you dub me 3-011 r Uncle Bob but how the kinship comes in, I am at a loss to dis cover as one was born in Minesota and the other in Ireland I think it would puzzle a Scotch highlander deeply versed in genealog ical love to establish the connection, the in creasing belief 111 the brotherhood of man any afford the solution. But laying aside all bandiage ; let me say to you, and all others, 3?our Uncle Bob will never join any other political party than the Democratic, so long as it maintains its exis tence, the first vote I cast was for the Dem ocracy, my last which increasing years ad monishes me is not far off, will be of the same character. At the proper time no doubt a call for a convention of tiie Democracy of the 9th dist. will bemacieand asuitablccandidatc present ed for election there is plenty of good material for that purpose, most prominent at this time so far as I can learn are Hall’s little giant, A. D. Candler, Col. Butler of Morgan, Col. Bell of Forsyth, either of the two first would it is believed make a good member, the last lias already' proved his fitness. I sincerely believe that the best interest of the Democ racy, and when I say the Democracy I mean the people generally', would be advanced by tho retirement of our present representative Mr. Speer and I know this belief does not grow out of a feeling of unkindness towards him, on the contrary in common with nearly every- one, I like him and do not seek for defects in his course in Congress. He fought the Democratic party, consequently I fight him and if no candidate is presented by a Democratic convention for acceptence by the people I will my-seif become a candi date making Democratic usages to the two thirds rule the only- issue. Respectfully Robt. White. Prejudice Kills- T> Eleven years our daughter suffered on a bed of misery under the care of several of the best (and some of the worst) physicians, who gave her disease various names but no relief, and now she is restored to us in good health by as simple a remedy as Hop Bitters, that we had poohed at for two years, before using it. We earnestly hope and pray that no one else will let their sick suffer as we did, on ac count of prejudice againts so good a medicine as Hop Bitters.”—The Parents. tdFMr. J. 11. Chapman has been very sick but is slowly imoprving. Death of Mr- Jackson Bell. Death has again’ invaded our community?, last week its victim was are innocent prat tling babe, now it is the aged sire ripe for the harvest. For Several days past our fel low citizen Mr. Jackson Bell has been lin gering upon a bed of sickness with but little hope of his recovery owing to his age and physical infermities, so that the most of us were not surprised last Wednesday- morning to hear of his death, the night before from an attack of typhoid pneumonia. Mr. Bell was one of our oldest and best known citi zens, having merchandized at this place for a number of years, before the war. He leaves a large family- of sons and daughters, to whom we extend our sympathy in this their hour of bereavement. Tribute of Respect. Again have we stood with silent awe in the chill presence of the Angel of Death. Our hearts, still aching with unhealed wounds, are throbbing again with sorrow for the loss of another ; one whom we all honored, repected and loved, diaries 11. Campbell, the sincere friend, the faith ful student, the conscientious Sabbath School teacher is no more. A little while ago, he came to us. a stranger, from Harris county Georgia ; quietly took his place among the students of Martin Institute, and in a few short months had won his way- to the esteem of all, by his integrity, his modest, unas suming manners ; and, above*all, by his pure and blameless Christian life. Few men had a higher sense of honor than he. and none ever raised a higher standard of noble manhood, or pursued with more unflinching purpose the true and the right. We had hoped that he would gather rich har vests in the broad fields of the future; that the influences of his pure life and lofty- ambition would extend through many years of usefulness, but alas! “he is notyet we reverently bow in submission to the will of the Father, as we say “ lie is not, for God took him.” Ilis star is set, but not extinguished ; it has only passed from mortal sight to glow with undimmed beauty in the world beyond; and the last gleam of its mellow radiance, as it sunk in a cloudless sky, will, we trust, illumine a path leading others to a better life. Then in commemoration of his many virtues and as a token of respect to departed worth ; be it resolved : That in the death of Charles H. Campbell, society has lost a most promising and valued member; the Sabbath School, an efficient and faithful teacher, and religion, a youthful, but bright exemplar. Resolved : That we tender our profound sym pathies to the bereaved family and friends. Resolved : That, the Forest News be re quested to publish these resolutions, and that a copy be sent to his family, and, also one be placed in the records of the Sabbath School. F. A. Glenn. 13. J.

Cox has l>een elected President and Bob Carr Secretary. The books are now open for the enrolment of new members, no doubt but the applications will be quite numerous. Cato. Hortheast-Georgia’s Choice- Mr. E ditor :—I would beg to suggest a3 a suitable person for Governor, Col. Samuel P. Thurmond. lie needs no introduction to the people of Northeast Georgia. For thirteen years previous to the late war, with ability and general satisfaction, he filled the office of Solicitor General of the Western circuit. Since tiie close of the war he has devoted himself exclusively to the practice of his profession (the law) and by- close applica tion, untiring energy and an unceasing devotion to the interest of his clients, he has made the practice of the lav/ a success ; while many, with perhaps more brilliancy, and by far greater educational advantages, have failed. Col. Thurmond is in the truest sense of the term a self made man. Starting out in life as a poor boy he read law at the handle of the bellows, being a mere striker in a blacksmith shop. Dependent in the outset upon his own exertions with an indomitable will he overcame obstacles such as are sur mounted only by true merit, and to-day worthily stands at the head of the bar of Northeast Georgia. In no sense of the term is he an office seeker. If elected bis adminis tration might not prove brilliant but it would surely prove honest, practical, firm, and beneficial to the State. The finances of the State would not be likely to suffer in the hands of a man accustomed to economy, a stranger to show and display, habituated to his office, and ever found at the post of duty. With vigilance would he watch and guard the finan ces of the State and to his utmost power protect her every interest. Citizen.
