Resolce/l, That tin county in tho State n to co-operate with remedy which they deploro; that they i to send delegates to a convention to be Even, says a Washington telegram, if there should not be more than ninety members they will destroy the obnoxious practice of the present House, by which the Republicans, by a two-thirds vote, have been able to suspend the rules and p; ss measures by tho same voto withont allowing debate. Mncli vicious legislation has been thus enacted by tho dictum of party rule. The military election bill, which has figured so prominently, was passed by the House in that way in do fiance of the protest of tho minority.— There will at least be no such exhibitions of indecent legislation iu the next Con gress. It is claimed here to-day that the result of the elections will insure a Con servative organization of the next House, 1 >y which tho Speaker, Clerk, and chair manship of the leading committees be secured. This, it is said, can l > ought about by a coalition with the * lino reformers in the Republican party elected iu the West. Tho following recapitulation of tho Congressmen elect,'asgiven by the World, compared with tho Forty-first Congress, will be read with interest: 42J Congress. 4Ibt Congress. Slates. D<in. Rad. Inti.

There is much wholesome advice con tained in the above resolutions, aud wo shall be more than glad to see the plant- of this county aud State enter hearti ly into the movement. Beyond a doubt i step in the right direction. The time has corno when the planters must unite and work together, and protect their own iuterests. They have'neglected this too long already, and the quicker they be gin the more money they will save. Up to this time tho combination has only existed among the cotton aud pro vision speculators. The people—the pro ducers—have stood silently by and per mitted these Shy locks to dictate terms. This is all wrong. All tho profit in ton, outside the manufacturer, belongs to the planter and he should have it, aud he w ill] have it if the proper steps are taken. Let [organizations be formc-d in every county, let small crops of cotton and large crops of corn bo planted, let tho planter get out of debt and stay out, aud then the speculator can be managed. Un til this is done the planters must remain the power of the speculator. Again i commend the resolutions. Maryland... MiSpJi; * 3Io;> Clubs. While tin* table is not based upon offi cial reports, still tho result has been snf- iieently well ascertained to justify the be lief that there will be bnt few changes iu it. And tho changes will about balance anyway. Now, if the same gains are made iu the live States, yet to elect, the organization of the Honso will bo almost certain to be lind by tho Conservatives. This will be a terrible blow—one from which the Radical party cannot recover. Why They Publish It 1 ■~^Ve want to know why tho honest pa pers at Atlanta don’t publish the list of appropriations made by tho Into Agency ? it will bo a melancholy satisfaction to the people to .seo just how much they Jiave I"‘oil robbed, nn<l to mark tho men who have aided and abetted the deed.- We •i->p > The Constitution, at least, will make an extra effort to get the doeu- meut and make it public. — Macon Teh We have not been able to got these facts yet, but will soon have them.

Send it along. If wo don’t make the plunderers “sick, ” It will not be for lack of trying. Let us all go to tpork and make them “howl.”—Macon Telegraph. Give us the record, and let us see how many of the proclamation presses, or those subsidized by Bullock, Blodgett and Kimball, will have the effrontery to stand un before tho tax-payers of Geor gia in defense of tho wholesale robbery ami corruption which such a true state ment of facts will disclose. We repeat, Hut We are for reform, repeal and ropn- dintion, and we repeat ourenll fornn lion e-'t statement of the facts.—Sav. Heirs. You are right.. Let ns seo how many of the Democratic papers that publish Governor IJnllock’s proclamations, will publish Bullock’s follies and crimes. Atlanta Constitution, 9th. We should not only like to see tho ap propriations published, with ns many ex planatory remarks as piacticable, but wo should like to know the names of those Democrats 'xho arc so intimato with the Governor. Wo notice tho 7'rue Georgian constantly referring to this fact aud wo want to know them. Let us have their names. Also a list of tho Proclamation Lditoro. Wo should like to see the names of these two classes strung along togeth er—it Mould be a part of the history of 1 ho times. Let ns have them from tho Rail Policy. The Democrats of Louisana tried tho South Carolina ReJorm strategy, and, ac cording to tho telegraph, haveljocn beat en i nto lint. Is it not about time to stop that sort of thing Const. 1 Yes, the Louisiana Democrats were l teuton by alxiutlwenty or thirty thou land vf>tes, according to returns to this writ ing, although, in the Presidential election, they carried the State by an immense ma jority. Now, wo cannot say wo are sorry for or sympathize with thorn, for we are opposed to this “Reform strategy.- ” Lot us make tho fight «m our own ground, aud upon our own principles. Away with turning Radical, voting Radical, and electing Radicals under the soft name of Reform. It is but a Radical trick, and it a wonder that it has not !>cen sprung and agitated by some of our Proclamation Editors or Tumble-Bugs. We warn the people against it, it is a trick. If we want a compromise, let us make an open < promise with Ihe-colorsd people, and not with the few renegade whites ani Tnm- blo-Bugs. • Wo are informed, upon the most re liable authority, that the negroes of a neighboring county havo organized a “Mob Club, ” with the avowed purpose of mobbing every one of their race who docs not espouse aud voto Radicalism.— One negro has already been badly beaten by the mob for avowing Democratic pro clivities. —A lUmy Heirs. Wo arc told, upon good authority, that efforts are being made in this county to get up similar clubs. Indeed, there is already au organization almost similar. In it they denounce Democratic colored men and pronounce vengeance against them, but we suppose they will go no farther than to talk. Wo can!t, for the life of us, see why it the negroes are permitting themselves to be led off from their true friends and lioan clubbers .some good sound raps, and showed tho colored people that the man- which they were now being con trolled and ordered about, by tho rene gades and Tumble-bugs, made them worse slaves than they ever wero before tho days of emancipation. This slavery of the head aud heart, whilo the old form was only slavery of the body. He spoko something over half an hour and’tlic crowd dispersed apparently well satisfied aud pleased. But, as we have before said, we doubt the propriety of po litical speaking at this time. V seo the benefits to result therefrom. The great mass of the negroes are thoroughly under the cantrol of the few white Radi cals iu our midst, and their plans are all arranged, aud they cannot be disconcert ed by public speeches. The only way to do this is to work, work earnestly. While tho Colonel was speaking we no ticed one of the “poor white buckras” busily engaged 1 mingling, among tho uo- | groes and keeping them, as far as in him lay, steadfast in the faith. This jfellow has political aspirations, bnt if tho ne groes will take our advice they will vote for him to stay where lie is. tcS., John R. Simmons lias not denied distributing that vile and slanderous po litical documeut, among the negroes ol this c ounty, that wc charged him with a few days ago, hence we take his silence for an admission of the truth of charge, and, unless he explains, we shall have something to sny of the document ami his conduct in our next issue. Wo do not intend the negroes shall bo imposed upon in auy such way. They have been duped loug enough. It is lime they liouldunderstand the truth. ' ‘The Plundered Tax Payers.” This is the caption of an article of Governor Bullock in his organ, howling extravagauoo against Jenkins’ adminis tration. ' . , Why in tho name of common sense don’t the Governor answer the charges against his own administration ? However, wo will take him on his own ground. He says Governor Jenkins increased the Stato debt $4,000,000 in two years. Yes, aud nearly every dollar of it went to restore the State Hood, that had been totally destroy«id by the war. And after your administration Las been iu posses sion of the road, getting it in good or der, for over two years with the best business it ever enjoyed, you havo so run tdown os to make it necessary for you to beg for half a million dollars to put it in order, and that without paying a dollar into tlie Treasury in eight months. And $004,000 of that Jenkins' debt Gov. Bun- EEOOVED himself from the Bank of the Jlepublic in Heir York, anil has used. But how about tbe three million and a half of bonds issued by Governor Bullock in the last three mouths ? How about the State credit being so degraded that one million and a quarter of bonds was issued, and only two hundred and fifty thousand dollars so far paid into the State Treasury of the loan ? How about nearly two million of gold bonds issued to pay four hundred thousand dollars of debts duo and falling due ? Bullock and Jenkins ! Let us com pare farther. Builock spent $12,800, without vouch ers, iu fifteen months for the “Inciden tal Expenses of tho Executive Depart- Address of Hon. Nelson Tift and Campaign Appointments. ment,*’against $350 for Jenkins witli vouchers. Who is tho plunderer hero ? Governor Bullock has spent over $70,- 000 for extra printing in two years against $1,070 a year for Jenkins. Who has plundered the tax payers ou this score? Bullock has spent $23,531 in feeing lawyers, the most of it for legal work that should have been done by the At torney General, who gets a large salary. We have no item of the sort against Jeuk- s. Who digs the tax-payers here ? Bullock spent $32,323 for Executive clerk hire in twenty-three montlis, against $9,402 for Jenkins in the same time, and against $8,575 for Gov. Brown. Who has plundered the tax-payers on this score 'i Bullock spent $1,157 for oil and can dles for the Executive Department for six months against $50 by Jenkins. Whero does the robbery lean here V Bullock spent $1,58G 40 for coal iu sis months for his office against $432 50 by Jenkins for wood. Who burned the tax- payers on this score Bullock spent $1,695 01 for Executive postage in six months against $071 90 for Jenkins. Who squandered tho people’! stamps here ? Bullock spent $0,803 62 for Executive stationery in a year and a half against $3,543 88 by Jenkins in two years. Bul lock wouldn’t stay stationary with Jenk ins, though the plundered tax-payers would not have objected. Bullock spent $232,000 under the spe cial service, section of the appropriation act in twenty one mouths against $7,412 19 by Jenkins in two years, the best of this plnndi In another column we print au ar ticle, from the Atlanta Constitution, un der the caption of “ The Plundered Tax- Payers. ” It will be remembered that we promised, in our last, an article on this subject, but as tlie one from our Atlanta cotemporary pleases us so well we give it instead of tho one we promised.

In the Presidential election of 1S68, the Radicals carried Greene county, Alabama, by 2,458 majority. In 1S70 Lindsay, Democratic candidate for Governor, car ried it by 43 majority, showing a gain of tiro thousand fire hundred and one votes. The Democrats also elected their ticket for tho Legislature.—TeL «C Mess. This should teach us a lesson and from wc should profit.

Wo know there aro many good colored men ho county who will not bo pulled about by sueli “ poor white tnrsh ” as is running the white part of the Radical concern in this county, and with the aid of these honest fellows we c«u whip the fight. But to do this we must bo united d enter the work with earnestness.— There must l>c no dissensions, no diyifi- , no independent candidates. We must present r. solid and unbroken front We print elsewhere tho address of Col. Nelson Tift, our candidate for Con gress. There is good advico contained in it and wc advise all to read it and car ry out the suggestions therein contained. VtQ. We have been informed that, on flie 5th inat., Glen Mozely, a little son of G. O. Mozely, pf Salt Springs, Cobb county,-while playing in his father’s cot ton seed, in attempting to turn a somer set had Ilia neck broken. When found he had his head stuck in the seed and was quite dead. Tie desires r.o*\ to retn humble walks of pi-vale life, quite satis fied to let others feast and enrich them selves upon the spoil - of office. But like Judge B-!!. he lias his friends, yea, his own kindred, who are still ambi tions, still aspiring. His sou, a boy of three years, is now wanting boots, ponie s and moustaches, looking forward to a seat in the Kimball House. At the meeting on the 15th of Sepl lrer last, the Judge favored and rulv ted Democrats plan, und certainly he must have undergone a very radical change. He mst have discovered that his plans would bo frustrated and h object thwarted. Otherwise, why should j lie change the programme adopted by a county meeting? Why should hop poss that the people eii masse, do that which they t-u masse opposed He speaks of “manipnla guanoes, I understand the application of that term, but cannot understand how delegates from tho different districts would cause manipulation. The Dele gates are those, to whom the district i willing to confide it> interests, an< through them, each, district speaks it choice* of candidates ; ani by them th choice of Hie country can bo nominated. This is a time-honored custom which has given .satisfaction, except to defeated pirunls. But what will proceed from tho plan now proposed by the Judge ? Among the Democrats there are many aspirants, and each law his friends and supporters. The whole people, irrespeolf color, or politics, are invited to Preston on the 17th of this month to elect dictates by ballot, and those receiving the highest votes, are declared tho choice of the county. Whilo the Democrats divided on the various officers, the Rad icals aro shrewd enough xo unite their entire strength upon ouo set of candi date!', tlrnt set will receive the nomina tion, and wo are bound to support thi Tlie Judge calls upon tho people, to let their report aud their preferences be cast aside. So says Democrat. In convention, w declare in favor of delegates from eac' district. Let us have them and let har mony prevail. As tho Judge says 1 want good men for office. • Let this pi prevail and- we will certainly not be boun t to support Radicals.

Again nominated for election to Con gress, by the unanimous voice of a Con vention, as one of the standard bearers of the Democratic party, I would call your attention to the importance of the election, which is to be held on the 20th, 21st and 22d of December, for a member of Congress, members of tho Legislature and county officers. The present condition- of the countty i bordering upon irretrievable disaster The Radical party now' iu power has violated tho Constitution, subverted the rights of the States, destroyed the sacred guarantees of personal lib erty and the freedom of elections; have impoverished the people by heavy and unequal taxation; squandered the public land and treasure to enrich monopolies and partisan favorites, and havo estab lished military despotism over peaceful communities and States to force them to tho accomplishment of their selfish, cor rupt aud tyrannical designs. No honest citizen can speak or think of the action and pre.seu condition of our State Govcm- mentwithout feelings of sorrow and in dignation for tho past, and apprehension for tho future. With nn unscrupulous Executive and a Legislature organized by a corrupt “ring,” co-operating with a United States Military Court, packed with who were not elected by the people, their course lias been marked by bad laws, extravagance, corruption, a disregard of the Constitution, and of tho rights and interest of tho people. Two years more of such rule would bring ruin and bankruptcy to all the great interest of the State, and would destroy tlie hope of socuring constitution al liberty in the future. Our opponents are at work day and night iu tho “ Loyal Leagues” and “Republican Clubs,” orderingnnd controlling their oath-bound colored men as their political slaves, send ing their emissaries over the country to propagate falsehoods and misrepresenta tions, and to incite enmity and hatred between the white and colored people.— The colored people should be convinced that their civil and political rights arc secured to them in tlie same manner, and to tho sams extent as the rights of the white people, and that having a common interest m the welfare and propel ty of the State, we should work together and elect good men to office, and secure an honest an economical administration of the Government. They need instruction as to their rights and interests, and they need protection against the tyranny and threats of violence from their Radical drivers. Lot this be a part of our duty. People of Georgia I let us make an effort worthy of the great cause for which contend. Let no personal sacrifice stand in tho way of our duty to save the State from the evils which surround us and threaten our destruction. Every man should be a missionary; every communi ty should be a unit. There should be no division upon candidates, or otherwise. A single vote may determine our fate.— Let every man be at the polls. Finally, let us offer our earnest prayers and best efforts to the Almighty Ruler of men and nations lor the salvation of our beloved State. If not providentially prevented, I will address the people at tho following times and pluces, and I invite my opponent, Major Wliitely, to meet me and discuss tho questions involved in the election: Georgetown, Monday, Nov. .21.
