Ttil HINDRABIE J JUAN HARTRIOIH F3K
SPEAKER OH THE NEXT HIJ3Z
CF REPRESENTATIVES.
The full mid official returns confirm
the good news of the recent elections.
The Deu.ocra’s have a majority in I lie
next Tf mse of Representatives of fr >m
forty to fifty, and will theref• r* cnn
tr and its ore a >iz it ion. In this new era
of roneiliation and good feeling, we
think that our Northern href linn
could not do a more kindly or grace
ful act than lo concede the position
of Speaker to a member from a South
ern State. If we are correct in this
view, we think that the claims of
Georgia the Banner State amongst the
late ''reconstructed,” should, without
anoganeo, lie regarded as paramount.
In that uolde l>nnj£of patriots which
she sends to represent her, is the gen
tleman whose name hea ls this article,
for whom we claim the position its
our first choice, and we believe the
first choice of aonnjority of the party.
We know of none, who unites the re
quisite qualifications of firmness,
quickness and urbanity, with a thor
ough knowledge of parliamentary law
in a higher degree than Mr. Har
tridge. Our personal acquaintance
with him is slight and we have no
claims upon him except such its we
share in common with every other eit
isiiU. But we do know his great abil
ities and sterling patriotism; and we
would like to see the proud old days
come back, when Georgia should be
ns worthily represented in the third
Fcder 1 office, as she was by the lu
menfed Howell Cobb, ami amongst
all her living children, Julian liar
tridge is the man.
DEATH OF HR DUNLAP SCOTT.
Our last week’s isuc contained the
account of the death of tlie lion.
James 11. Hunter, of Bro ok s
countv, and now another gallant
Georgian has gone to Ids rest. The
Hot). Dunlap Scott, of Floyd county,
■who died at his residence in Rome on
the s'li ins ant, Was indeed a repre
sent a* ive man of our best and highest
type. He was tho leader of Unit true
hearted minority, in theLegifTnture,
which fought over evotjh inch of
ground, against the frauds and pecu
lations of Bullock and Kwr pang until
right finally triumphed over wrong.
Wo should cherish- the memory of
him who had the courage to lead in
tliosi dark days of despondency and
general hopelessness For though
he is dead, his acts and his example
will confer benefits upon generations
to come. Peace to his ashes !
THE GALLANT iJRDON.
In the hour of victory it is becom
ing and graceful to be forgiving, yet
it is very rare to see one equal to such
mi occasion; but we have the hero
row, remarks the Sava innli Adverti
s r. A battle scarred veteran, wliobs
w
1 >ve for his country has bec:i,sealed on
many a blood stained field, whose
8 vp,j*(J. jvas sheathed in the hist con
test, when the flickering sun of our
expiring came set forever and left ns
at the mercy of our foes, whose voice
in war was for war, but now in piping
times of peace, recognizing. the duties
of out;people in the hour of a moral
victory, semis out, his cbiron not* 8 for
peace, that must reach the heart of
every good and true citizen. Our
l c;q , is Senator Gordon, and his
words, which we hope will be well r
meinbered, were uttered at Atlanta
after tire receipt of our recent decisive
political victories, are reported as fol
lows:
“One boon I nsk in this hour of yonr de
liverance. I ask ypn .to ,<u>o|mison me iu
your 'liafne to pledge iinoii the floor of the
Senate yonr fidelity to the Union under the
Constitution: your acquiescence in the laws
passed in accoidance with the Constitution,
good and had. until lawfully repealed: yonr
support of all rightful authority, your cor
dial friendship tor every man ami all men of
all sections who wjTl jud' iu flstming peace
to the sections, justice to the States, liberty
to the citizens, purity to all departments ol
the government. Constitution to its
supremacy over Presidents, Congress and
parties and people. [Loud cheers.] I thank
you, my countlyiueii, for that response.
Y >u aie as temperate iu triumph us you were
gieat ia-iidversity.”
Tho.-e are the sentiments of till the
true'Southern men. If all the people
will o;ny take General Gorlou’<* iul
vice we will soon iiave a country ns
prosperous nud p.nceablo as any iu
the world.
