'Flic white miners of Ohio are so bitterly •opposed to the liireing of colored labor to work in the mines that they propose to kick ■up a row about it. Ex-Governor English, of Connecticut, has never been si'-k a day in his life, lias never called a physician, and has never taken any medicine, although he was sixty-eight years old last March. All efforts to effect a compromise between the Virginia Democrats, in regal'd lo the State electoral ticket, have met with failure. If 1-iiat Slate goes for Garfield in November, the Democrats wiil be to blame for it.

Candi date* being so numerous it is now dangerous to fell a tree.*’ The Alliens Banner of the IKt.li inst. con -1 ained a communication in which it was charged that the lion. 11. P. Bell was respon sible for the candidacy of Arciicr in 1877. W e would like to have the matter more full}' investigated, and trust it will be done, as the charge is a grave one, ami should he sifted to the bottom. The Atlanta Constitution says that last Friday Mr. John Mclntyre, who lives seven miles from the city on the Flat Shoals road, was in Atlanta and engaged three men to go home with him and pick cotton. The men were June Ratlin, John Coppage and Hud Hroom. The four left Atlanta together, but when six miles from the city, near Sugar •Creek, on the Hat Shoals road, the men put into execution a robbery which bears all the marks of having been deliberately planned. At the place mentioned Mr. Mclntyre was struck on the head and knocked down ; a member of the party caught and choked him while a third held a knife in readiness in case of resistance.- After securing fifty-four dollars, the robbers beat a hasty retreat, hav ing been frightened by an approaching wag on. Id r. Mclntyre was not hurt much, but surrendered when he saw that resistance was useless. The robbery occurred on one of the principal highways leading into the city, at ten o’clock in the day time, and was apiece of remarkable bold rascality. Two of the men, June Iluilin and John Coppage. were arrested that night and are now confined in the station house. * The Walton county Valette says that a horrible accident occurred at Air. John 0. Perry’s mill, ten miles north of this place, oil the 13th in->t. A young man at work at the mill was healing oil’ lumber from the saw while it was running, and in taking a piece from it, the timber came in contact with the saw, which jerked him forward upon it, and as quick as thought, lie was literally sawed in pieces. llis left leg was cut entirely off and thrown some ten paces ; his right arm was sawed and mashed off; his right leg was cut almost entirely otr at the knee, and his left hand cut olf. 11 is body w:Vs also terribly bruised, yet. he lived until 2 o’clock p. m., perfectly conscious of everything about him. when death came to his relief. Dr. Hardman was Culled to him. but found him too far gone t>. render any assistance. He died one hour alter the doctor reached his bedside. COLQUITT STILL TRIUMPHANT I Issues Settled. As the Gubernatorial canvass drrvws to a close, two things are clearly indicated. The first is, that the throne of the politician is crumbling, that his royal sway over the masses is a thing of the past, i lie newspapers are finding their way to almost every home, and our people are beginning to rea l and think for themselves. May the Lord hasten the day when the professional politician and office seeker will be forced to retire from the stump and seek a living by some productive labor. 'The second fact indicated by this canvass is that the people, left to themselves and their newspapers, and otner sources of information, wiil quietly reach a fairer and better con clusion than when constantly harangued by public speakers. lam glad to know that the days when noise and brag and blaster could sway the people are now passing away. During this campaign, while the Norwood party was screaming and shouting, the people were closing their ears, quietly examining the facts and deciding to support Colquitt. When the Norwood party blustered and bragged, the people smiled and regarded the former as noisy' children. When the more excited Norwoodit.es forgot their manhood and became abusive, the supporters of Colquitt calmly closed up their ranks, moved steadily on, and every day received accessions from the better classes of their opponents. It does seem strange that the minorit y with ail their boasted talent should have made such egre gious blunders. In their sublime conception of their imagined gifts, they seem to have forgotten that common people may have a little common sense, and that the latter can no Jongfer be imposed on by bare-faced false hood and gross misrepresentation. I heard that one of their speakers was even trying to impose upon the people that Colquitt was responsible for goo i men’s names being left out of the jury l>ox, and when remonstrated with for the gross misrepresentation, replied that he “did not care, if they' were fools enough to believe it.” This is certainly' very much like many of their mis-statements, i believe this minority make the boast that they have the talent of the State with them. May the Lord save us from such talent as lias been displayed by them in this campaign ; and may he save our State from such leaders and such rulers as they would make. !do not think history ean.furnish an example of a party led by men claiming “ great talent” starting out with so little capital and having swell meagre claims for recognition. Even/ issue which they have truthful!)/ made during the campaign hud been thoroughly'in vest/gated <oid passed upon by an overwhedming major if >/ </gainst them be fore the canvass commenced. Not a charge have they made against Governor Colquitt hut what has been met long ago and triumphantly refuted. And that was the reason why the people in their primary elec tions so decidedly indicated that they wished Governor Colquitt to be retained in the* Gubernatorial chair. And that was partly the reason why the delegates were determined that he should go before the people. The Colquitt delegates also knew that the opinion was very common that conventions often defeated tins will of the people; and this is the great argumentof Independentisra against conventions. The majority of the delegates knew that the people wanted Governor Col quitt, and they determined that the above charge should not be made against them. It is the basest political stuff to talk about Col quitt’s not harmonizing t.ho Democratic party. No man in the world can ever harmonize a great body of office-seekers, unless he has a good office to give to every one; and even then it would be doubtful. Not a man in the State of Georgia, except Alfred 11. Colquitt. could have come in a thousand degrees of harmonizing the party. The people wanted Colquitt, and if he had not been put before them, they would have scattered conventions to the four winds forever, and would have buried the delegates, politically, for all time. They mean to have their way, and 1, for one, am glad of it. lam tired of the sway of politicians and office-seekers. The people know very well who represented them in the late convention ; and all the elTnrtVto prove that they did not wish the re election of Gov ernor Colquitt have proven utterly futile: and the Gth of October will most triumphantly vindicate the action of the majority in con forming to the will of the people. They are not deceived by the cry of disorganization. They know who the disorganizes are ; and they know well that L was the minority who wished to disorganize and revolutionize, be cause said minority was out of office, and said minority was so awfully “ talented’’ that the State of Georgia would be rained if it did not have their talents in the places of power : so they thought, under the impression that they had all the brain, that it would be better for them to break up the Democratic party, than £;r the State of Georgia to be ruined by having them out of cilice. Fellow-citizens, let us teach these gentle men that we' do not mistake noise for talent ; that we do not receive empty political charges as facts; that we do not approve of vitupera tive abuse, or regard it as recommending men to our suffrages. Let u3 also show them that we know our own minds, and prove it by giving Alfred 11. Colquitt a greater majority than he received four years ago. J. W. G. P. S.—Some have found fault with Gov. Colquitt oil account of his connection with the Trade Union. That matter, too. has been fully investigated by a committee and the Governor triumphantly vindicated. General B. F. Butler’s Speech at Pitts burg. PiTTsnuiro, September 18.—Gen. Benja min F. Butler and Col. John W. Forney ar rived in this city this nfterhoon. Paul J. Carson, Ex-Deputy Sheriff, together with a number of other colored men, called upon Gen. Butler, who. in response to a speech by Mr, Carson, said lie hud done nothing but what lie conceived to be his duty in a war which was not begun for the emancipation of slaves, because, as all would remember, at the first proclamation of President Lincoln tiie troops were called out to retake and repossess the United States of property j which had been seized from them, and j to execute the laws. After reviewing las' career from 1830 to 1865, he continued: “ For the sixteen years since the war I have acted with the Hepuhlican party in the hope j that they would extern l that, protection to the > colored mi-n of the South th ;‘ I deemed ought to ’ue done. I trie ito get it done in Congress, but. if was not and me. I fought in the campaign for Haves'in 187 G under the promises of the platform and the party leaders that it should be done, and what is the re sult? The* very first act of Hayes’ adminis tration was to turn over the States of Lou isiaaa and South Carolina, where -it was claimed tha' there were Republican govern ments elected by negro votes, or else II ayes was not ejected. Ue gave the governments so elected over to the Democrats, and from that hoar, for four years, not one tiling has been attempted to be done in behalf of col ored men, nor indeed anybody else. There iias been, it is true, a little attempt to ‘stop the illicit distilling of whisky and brandy in the South, and a few men have been caught and let go, and some men have been killed by the lawless distillers, and their murderers have not been punished, so that there has not been proper protection for the men who live down there. That being so. in the best in terests of the colored men, I propose to have a change. If the Republican party cannot provide this protection in sixteen years, I do not propose to allow them twenty. General Hancock has said that he will enforce the loth, 14th and loth amendments in their let ter and spirit, and nobody' who knows him will doubt that he will stand by that if elect ed. ami given the power, and nobody doubts that the Democratic party will have the pow er to protect the negro if they get into power, and their leader has said he will do so. 1 propose to try this expenmen for four years, and then, IT the Democrats cannot do better than Hayes has done, i shall turn round and help kick thorn out at the end of four years. One tiling is certain, I cannot be more pow erless during the next four years to give col ored men proper protection, than I and every other man has been in tha past.” The Conrgessionni Campaign. With the nomination of Colonel George Iv. Black in the first district, the democracy of Georgia complete the preliminaries of the congressional can/ass in this state—a can vass that promises to he in all respects rath er livelier than usuah The nomination of Col onel Black will not only give great satisfac tion throughout’thc State, but will harmo nize whatever spirit of discord may have made itself manifest in the party in the dis triet. He is personally very popular, and his friends have insisted for some years that his services to the party in the desperate days of reconstruction and since entitle him to a place in the Georgia delegation. Colonel Black does not come before the oeople oJ his district as the “ dark horse” of the Conven tion which nominated him. 11 is position in the party made him a candidate for the nom ination and his popularity will elect him over any opposition that may be put in the field. Ue is in every respect a representative Geor gian, a good lawyer, a fine speaker an t a ready debater. In the second district the opposition that will be brought against Captain Henry G. Turner will onl y serve to develop the remark able energies of that gentleman as a c im paigner. lie has few equals on the stump, and when he fakes his seat in congress, tie republicans wiil discover that he is a power ful adversary, whether on the door of th house or In the committee room, ft is un derstood that the republican candidate in the second district is B. F. Brimberry. In the third district, Gen*-ml .Phil Cook has no opposition that we can hear of, thouT if it should become necessary, he can mrik a stirring canvass, lie is popular witu his constituents, and has served them fait - .full for several years. In the fourth district. JufUc Hugh Hue! an an, one of the best legal minds in the stab and a most popular citizen, js the nominee, lie is opposed by Colonel Pou. of Columbus who is running as an independent candi l it*- The canvass in tills district will be lively V the end, and there seems no reason to doubt that Judge Buchanan will be elected. In the fifth district, Colonel N. J. Ilarn mond has been re-nominated. lie will be op posed by Mr. Ilulsey, of Fulton, and Mr, Dismuke, of Spalding, both of whom are in dependent candidates. Colonel Hammond will be re elected without any trouble. If may be taken for granted that Freeman, the republican nominee, looked over the grown . carefully before lie announced his intention of retiring, and if lie had discovered even a remote chance for his election, lie woo'd be in the field at this moment. The truth is. Colonel Hammond has given the most un bounded satisfaction to the people of the dis trict of all shades of opinion, and they fi.-.l that Ills experience in the" house his fully equipped him for his duties as a representa tive of their interests and the interests of the state. In the sixth district. Colonel J. IT. Blount is having tilings His own way. He has no opposition, but lie is nevertheless meeting his constituents in various parts of the district, and giving them an account of his steward ship. This is almost unnecessary, for all who read the newspapers are familiar with the conspicuous position Colonel Blount has taken in congress. In the seventh district, Mr. J. C. Clements is making an active campaign against Dr. Felton. There has not, as yet, been any joint discussion between the two candidates, and it is probable that each will prefer to meet the people unembarrassed by the limits and latitudes of an argumentative encounter. We judge from the newspapers, that the speeches of Mr. Clements are exceedingly effective, and it will certainly be a feather in iiis cap if he should snceed in defeating a campaigner as experienced as Dr. Felton. In the eighth district, the sage of Liberty Hall is without opposition from any quarter. He will probably make a few speeches to his constituents, but even this is not neces sary. In the ninth district. Colonel 11. 1\ Bell? the democratic nominee, is making a lively campaign against Mr. Emory Speer, the in dependent candidate. It is not to be denied that the latter goes into the canvass under fewer disadvantages than formerly, but Colonel Bell is an effective campaigner, an indefatigable worker, and a good speaker. The candidates have arranged for a series of joint discussions, and the voters of the ninth will be treated to an old-fashioned canvass. There seems to be no doubt that the Georgia delegation to the forty-seventh cangress will bo conspicuous for its ability, collectively and individually, and will compare more than favorably with any delegation ever sent to congress from any State in the union.— Atlanta Constitution.

The Columbus Tin es says: “Alit f le ne- j •rro cliihl, about, four yearn old. hold of its father's tlask of red liquor Sunday and drank it, from the effects of it died in a levy hours. Such dangerous weapons should be kept out of the way of children as well as their elders.” According to thoKlberton News the Grange movement is rapidly building up in Elbert county. That paper learns that the Dove's Creek Grange initiated seven new members a few days ago at a called meeting, and will initiate seventeen more at the next regular meeting. Tile order is rapidly increasing in other portions of the county. The North Georgia Citizen was shown a day or so ago, at the jewelry store of E. E. Brown in this place, a small double-case gold watch, which was recently ploughed up on the battle-field of Chickamauga. The watch was in an excellent state of preservation, hut little rusted, and when repaired, will be as good time-keeper as it ever was. It original ly cost about one hundred dollars. Athens Banner: “Sunday morning a dis tressing casualty occurred on the Georgia Road, about three miles below Winterville. The hnt of a negro man on the train, whose name wo emill not learn, blew from his head. Under the influence of liquor, and not aware of the folly of his act, he instantly jumped from the car after the hnt. The train was going at about twenty-five miles an hour, and the poor fellow landed on his head with such violence that fiis skull was broken, lie is not dead yet, but lies in an unconscious con 'lition and there is little or no hope of hrs life.” Columbus Times: “ One of your sprigs of the bar, noted for his erudition, and who is also a Norwood missionary, a few days ago participated in a joint discussion in a neigh boring village, being assigned the opening speech. The time allowed was only two hours, so our young friend began his speech in the garden*of Eden, after the creation, in a review of the origin of the government, and coming along down gradually, gave a history 'if all the the supremacy of pow er till lie reached Georgia and the great race of Troup and Clark, some fifty years ago, when time was palled on him by the Chair man, and he took his seat amid a perfect storm of enthusiasm. It was a splendid speech, and just about as near as any of the Norwood orators come to a solid reason why Governor Colquitt should not, be re-elected. Eifly years is a short time, only half a cen tury.” Says the Elbert,on News: “We took a trip through the lower part of the county one day last week', and from what we could see, the upland corn crop is almost a complete fail ure in that section. With but few excep tions, that which we saw was hardly worth gathering. The failure wa3 caused by the long continued dry weather. Wo were in forme;; that on bottom lands the crops was much better. The cotton crop throughout that portion of the county is also sorry, and will not make more than half ail average crop, according to present calculations., it, is opening rapidly, and the people arc pick ing it out an fast as possible. Guano lias no! paid those who have used it in that sec- Gnn the present year, and we fear that many ■>f them will come out behind. In other por tions of the county where they have not suf fered for rain, crops of ai! kinds are said to oft as g0,.-' as the lan 1 i ■ capable of pro-due iag.” ' “On Sun-lay morning list.” say the Wo! ton (Jonah! Vldelte, “ when Deputy Sherifi Ivey to the jail to breakfast the priso ners, he was unceremoniously run over !v George Thompson, now under sentence to the penitentiary' for life, for murder. Upon unlocking tire first inside door, George sprang against it with all his strength, forcing Judge Ivey back against the wall behind the door. With this he sprang down the steps and took to his heels. The Judge then gave the alarm and before the fleeing culprit could run fifty’ yards, he was overtaken by a number <ff young men and negroes, who had given chase, and safely recaptured. He was back safe in his cell in lAs than five minutes after lie ac quitted it. Examination showed that he had broken the lock to the inner door by means of a forty penny nail which lie had gotton hold of by some means—and the inner door being thus opened, ho had only to await the turnkey's com ng and take him unawares.” The Atlanta Const!!niton publishes a long account of the diifieulty between Dr. J. G. Westmoreland and Mr. Julius L. Brown in that city, and shows how il was that the hos tile meeting arranged between them-was pre vented. It seems that Dr. Westmoreland, after his an- ■#* gave $5.0 K) bond to keep the peace, but left for the field i:i spite of his bond. After this Mr. Brown was arrested just as he was leaving the city, and Judge Tanner, to prevent his following Dr. West moreland's example, placed him under a bond of $25,000 that he keep the peace, and not leave the State for a hostile meeting. This effectually put a stop to the duel. Sand Bar Ferry, near Augusta, had been se lected as the meeting place. Before the duel was arranged for lion. B. li. Hill a;nd Col. G. W. Adair made every effort to adjust the differences between the two gentlemen, but. without effect. Col. I. W. Avery was the sec ond of 'dr. Brown, and Mr. Howard Williams that of Dr. Westmoreland. The Columbus Times relates “a tradition of Bine Mountain” as follows: “ It is a fact well known to men now living that in former years the settlers in Harris county about Bine Mountni'n got the lead they used for mould ing bullets from some place on the mountain. ; In these latter years no one seemed to know lof the spot from which It was obtained. It might be worth looking up. A good lead ' mine would be a valuable discovery. The one found forty or fifty years ago must have been taken from or vernear the surface, and ity was said to be very fine—perhaps ninety per cent, of lead. The old hunters—notably Mr. Zeke Brown, who lived on the Whiter,- ville road not far from the Mulberry, mould ed bullets fern the ore direct. We hope if there is any valuable mineral in the Bine Mountain, in quantities sufficient to make mining profitable, that it be discovered and * unearthed.’ Wo have heard before that there was gold in this mountain, but the existence of lead was not known to us be fore. In those old days of winch we have been writing, there were* rattlesnakes' along t lie re too. Mr. Zeke Brown, named above, used to say that lie had rattlesnakes enough on his place to 4 fence it in’ if each snake had been a fence rail, but they never hurt him. as he always kept on hand a sovereign antodote —peach and honey. Some of the descend ants of the snakes are still to be found, and the remedy for their bites has never been for gotten by any inhabitants of old Harris.” To the Voteri; of Jackson County. As I will not have the chance of calling in person upon the voters of Jackson county, I employ this means of making known to them why 1 am seeking their suffrages as a candi date to represent them in the Senate - from the Senatorial District composed of the coun ties of Hall, Banks and Jackson. As is well known to you all, the rotation system has heretofore been acted upon. At the last general election for members of the Legisla ture, it being the turn of Hall to choose the nominee for the Senate, she presented to the ! citizens of Banks the Hon. Allen Candler, | who was almost unanimously supported by I Banks. The term before Jackson presented | to Banks the name of the lion. George Dead i wyler, who also received the almost unani | mens support of Banks. Sometime before the meeting of the late convention at Gills ville to nominate a candidate for the Senate, the Militia Districts of Banks held meetings and elected delegates, who assembled at Homer and expressed it as their unanimous desire that I make the race as a candidate for the next Senator of the District. The nomination was not one of my own seeking.
