bringing into ?qieci*l prominence, aa
applicable to the present extraordinary
condition of tbo country, the unchangea
ble doctrines that this in a Union of the
States and that the indestructibility of
the States and of their rights and of their
equality with each other is an Indispen
sable part of oar political system.
Resolved, That in the approaching
State election, the Democratic Party in
vites everybody to co-operate with them
in a zealous determination to change, as
far as the several elections to be held can
do so, the present usurping and corrupt
administration of the State government
by placing in power men who are true
to the principles of constitutional gov
ernment, and to a faithful and economi
cal of public tffnw
Resolved, That in addition to the
turns of the elections to be made, as pre
scribed by law, the managers be request
ed to give credentials of election to the
Representatives and Senators who i
be elected, to be used as evidence of tl
election.
Resolved, That whatever policy others
may pursue, we pledge ourselves to do all
in our power to secure free and fair elec
lions by all who are qualified to vote nn-
der existing laws.

why is this? Why do the whites belong
to the Democratic pasty ? Simply be
cause its pnpeipfes are better, and be
cause ik has for its object the more eoo-
comical administration of Government,
the better protection of rights of the peo
ple, and the giving more security to
property of tho people. But how is this

We learn that the Democratic Execu

in tliis State.—Macon TcL «fr Me**.
We regret that onrfriends of tho 7Vfe-
•traph Messenger were nnable to pro
cure for publication in their yesterday’s
issue the full proceedings of the Demo
cratic Executive Committee, which con
vened in Macon Monday. Outside of the
election of a Chairman, to fill the vacan
cy occasioned by the illegal elevation of
Mr. Linton Stephens to that position re
cently in Atlanta, we scarcely can know
what matters carno before the considera
tion of the gentlemen present in commit
tee. If their discharge of other issues of
business, whatever they may have been,
approximated tho wisdom, discernment
and discretion displayed in the choice of
their new Chairman, the good citizens of
(leorgia will not fail to pronounce their
work indeed “ well done. ’’
Mr. A i-demon is one of the most dis
tinguished lawyers of our State; and this
eminence has been achieved by stndions,
unflagging and faithfnl devotion to his
profession. Possessed of a clear and an
alytical mind, trained by application and
tilled with rich stores harvested in the
great fields of the world’s thought and
learning over which the mightiest dead
nud the nobleat living have driven their
intellectual ploughshares, and gifted with
that tongue of eloquence whoso utter
ances are terse and exhaustive as they are
silver-sweet and pleasing, distinction at
tho bar has como upon him as it were nat
urally.—the pledged favor of that “ jeal
ous mistress ” whoso smiling graces are
lavishly bestowed only npon those who
woo her with single and undivided hearts.
The ollnrementa of popular fame J which
to aspiring natures is so tempting by rea
son of its far easier achievement than pro
fessional distinction,' have never been
icsl* being in power. The taxes, of *1 aud his wife,” and private boarding
man for one year now, would, when Dem
ocrats weie iu power, havopaid tho taxes
for four or five years. Bat the black man
says I have no property, therefore have
no taxes to pay, lienee that question is of
no interest tome. But we say you do’
have taxes to pay, and of this wc think
you can be convinced. There is a legiti
mate way of conducting every business,
and eveiy man, studying his interest,
fixes in bis mind a certain per cent, that
he most make in liis business. To ex
plain, suppose a man had $10,000 invest
ed in a farm and desires to make ten per
cent on the investment, can he not pay
the hands he employs better wages if his
taxes are only 20 cents or 40 oents on the
$1,000 than he could when his taxes ore
$4 and $6 on the$1,000; as thqy nrenovr ?
The most stupid black man in the coun
ty, we think, can see that he could. Then
it is in this way that the black man pays
taxes, and were it not for high taxes he
would get from $23 to $50 more for his
years’ labor than he now gets. I vet the
black man not delude himself witii
idea that he pays no taxes.
Bnt let us ask the black man why he
belongs to tho Radical party ? We <
see no good reason in the world, and
should be glad if some ono would give
ns a reason, and wo here tender tLo col
umns of the Repubucax for that pur
pose. In this contest there are no na
tional questions involved, and we should
be glad to have the reason why the black
peoplo wish to vote for the Radicals.
The white and colored jieople are liv
ing here together, are engaged in a com
mon partnership, and carrying on the
business of farming. The black man de
sires to mako money—ho desires to get
him a home of his ova—and with this
end he goes to work, with the white man.
He pnts into the partnership his labor—
he has nothing else; tho white man puts
his Land, stock, fanning tools, money
and superior education and experience.
This being true their interests arc mutu
al—their efforts harmonize, and both
make aliving and some money. Bnt sup
pose they did not unite, what would
tho result ? the black man would be ruin
ed. Suppose, at the beginning of the

Its cause lies deep as human feeling it

nature. The reform then, will go on. It
will go on because its principles are cor

be richly repaid in attending this Fair,

BOARDING HOUSE
Accustomed to a coast region, the Gulf of
Mexico washes Texas from the Sabine to
the Rio Gmude, a distance of five or six
hundred miles, and on the bays, bayous,
and rivers there are immense tracts of
land adapted to cultivation. Tho waters
abound in the finest fish, oysters, turtles,
4c., and the forest trees are covered with
vines producing grspe*. from whioh mil-
liens of gallons or wine might be annual
ly manufactured.
Horses, mules, and neat cattle can be
ssed in Texas at a very trifling expense,
and is always a very profitable business.
There is nothing like this business for
people with smsli capital. . Nature Vijlx
makes them rich, with but small atten
tion, comparatively, on their part. There
are young unmarried men in this State,
who own from 10,000 to 20,000 head of
cattle. We are afraid to say how much
the income of such men is per annum :
but we know the man who adopts stock-
raising in Texas from choice, for the pur
pose of making a living, and will give it
intelligent attention, will never complain
of the resulf, ” A. K.
