Sumner tor Greeley—His Letter
of Advice to the Negroes.
Washington, July 30.—Mr. Sum
ner has written a long letter to a
number of colored citizens who late
ly addressed him. Mr. Sumner de
clares for Greeley. Among his
strongest paragraphs is the follow
ing: “The present position of the'
Colored citizen to perUwU*. He is
exposed to injurious pressure when
lie needs support, but I see no early
extraction except in the way pro
posed. Let him cut adrilt irom
managers who would wield him
merely as a political force with little
regard to his own good and brave
ly stand by the candidate, Greeley—
who has stood by ' him. If Demo
crats unite with him, so much the
bptter, the association once begun
must naturally ripen into friend
ship and trust.”
The following is a synopsis oi
Sumner’s letter. He addresses- his
correspondents as gentlemen and
fellow-citizen- - , and proceeds.
lie delayed .answering that in
might reject, and freely inform him
self. He has listened to much from
both sides, but his best judgment is
now in harmony with his early con
clusion. He is touched by the ap
peal his correspondents made. Tie
has been tlie friend of their race
and is glad they consider him a
special advocate of their rights.
They do him ample justice when*
they believe that his counsel at this
critical juncture would be iree from
personal or partisan prejudice. Mr.
Sumner contrasts the two candi
dates: Greeley was lx>rn in poverty
and educated himself in a printing
office. Grant, fortunate in early
patronage, became a cadet at West
Point and was educated at the pub
lic expense. One started with noth
ing but industy and character, the
other with a military c< mmisslon.
One was trained as a civilian, the
other as a soldier. Horace Greeley
stood forth as a reformer and an
Abolitionist. The President enlis
ted as a pro-slavery Democrat, and
at the election of James Buchanan
fortified, by.his vote, all the preten
sions of slavery—even the Died
Scott decision. Greeley, from early
life, was earnest and constant
against slavery, full of sympathy
with the colored race, and always
foremost in the great battle for their
rights. President Grant, except as
a soldier summoned by the tenable
accident of war, never did anything
against slavery, nor has he at amy
time shown any sympathy with the
colored race. Horace Greeley ear
nestly desired that colored citizens*
should vote, and ably championed
impartial suffrage, but President
Giant was on the other side.
Beyond these contrasts which are
marked, it cannot be forgotten that
Horace Greeley is a person of large
heart and large understanding,
trained to support human rights.
Mr. Greeley’s industry, general
knowledge, aimable nature, and
above all, honesty, which no susp#
cion has touched, are maiutainted.
Few of these things appear in Presi
dent Grant; his great success in war
cannot change his record toward
the colored people, while there are
antecedents showing that in the
prosecution of his plans be cares
nothing for the colored race.
Mr. Sumner, pretaeing that the
story is painful but it must be told,
gives the history of St. Domingo
and Ilayti, where he outraged 800,.
000 blacks who were engaged in the
great experiment of self-govern
ment.
Here follows a history of i lie at.
tempt at annexation. He alludes to
the disrespect with which Grant
treated Fred Douglass, who by his
invitation was one of the Saint Dom
ingo Commissioners. Grant, has
little capacity or industry in protec
ting colored people and assuring
peaee at the South, After violating
the constitution and international
law to insult the black republic, and
Betting an example of insubordina-
tion he was not in a condition tc
rebuke law breakers.
Mr. Sumner then considers the
present position of the two candi
dates. . Each was nominated by a
Republican Convention. He lauds
the material composing the Cincin
nati Convention. Comparing the
character of the supporters of the
two candidates, he says: The coun
try knows too well the military ring,
the Senatorial ring, the Custom
bouse ring through which the Presi
dent acts. Such supporters are a
very poor recommendation. He
says it is idle to say that Horace
Greeley and the Republican which
Vere nominated at Cincinnati, are
any less Republicans because Demo
crats unite with them in the sup
port of cherished principles, and the
wuo represents them.
Mr. Sumner says the hardihood of
political falsehood reaches its ex
treme point when it is asseeted that
under Horace Greeley the freedmen
will be re-enslaved, or that colored
people will in any way sufTer in their
equal lights. On the contrary, they
have in his election not only the
promises of the platform, but also
the splendid example for a full gen
eration, during which he has never
wavered in the assertion of their
rights. To suppose that Horace
Greeley, when placed where he can
do them the most good, will depart
from the rule of his honest life, is an
insult to reason. It is none the less
idle to suppose that Democrats, sup
porting Horace Greeley, expect or
desire that he should depart from
those principles which are the glory
his oharacter. They have accepted
the Cincinnati platform with its two
fold promises and intend in good
faith to maintain it.
Gentlemen, in thus answering your
two inquiries I have shown why you,
as colored fellow-citizens, and also
all who would uphold your rights,
and save the colored race from in
dignity, should refuse to sanction
the re-election of the President, and
put your trust in Horace GVeeley.
I ought to add that with him will be
associated, as Vice President, Gratz
Brown, whom I have known for
years as a most determined Aboli
tionist. The two together will carry
into the National Government un-
swervering devotion to your rights,
not to be disturbed by partisans,
dictation or section prejudice.
Besk.es all this which may fully
guide jou in determining between
the two candidates it is my duty to
remind yon that as citizens of the
United States and a part of the'
country, your welfare is indissolubly
associated with that of the whole
country. If all are prosperous you
will be gainers. Therefore while
justly careful of your own rights you
cannot be indifferent to the blessings
*>f good government. It is for you
to consider whether the ’time lias
not come for something better than
the sword, and whether a character
like Horace Greeley does not give
stronger assurance of good govern
ment than can be found in the insul-
ter of the colored race, already
famous for the rings about him, and
his plain inaptitude for civil life.
Speaking now for myself, I have
to say that my vote will be given
for Horace Greeley, but in giving it
I do not go to the Democratic party,
nor am I less a Republican; on the
contrary, I am so mufh of a Repub
lican that I cannot support a candi
date whose conduct in civil life
shows an incapacity to appreciate
Republican principles, and whose
administration is marked by acts of
delinquency, especially toward the
colored race, by the side ol which
the allegations on the impeachment
of Andrew Johnson were technical
and trivial.
a Boston leather dealer. He met
the lady at Saratoga for the first
time last season, and she, by direc
tion of her parents, who was also
wealthy and insisted upon the ar
rangement, became his affianced.
Previous to this she had met a young
gentlemau, also oftoston, of the ut
most respectability, of * thorough
honor and integrity, but without for
tune. To him she had been some
thing more than a friend, in fact, al
most a betrothed. He was young,
had risen by his own stern efforts,
and was, it is said, possessed of
sterling and promising abilities which
in time must have won him wealth
and perhaps distinction. On the re.

season her engagement prevented
her from, further intercourse with
her first suitor, and he was dismis
sed. His grief was pitiful.
He strove not to reverse it by
word or action, but the very efforts"
he so laboriously made, exposed the
poignancy of his wounds. The lady
lived with her husband in the su
burbs of the city at a large and
costly residence fqr one month after
their marriage. "By that time the
abuse of the husband and his gross
sensuality and indecency compelled
an immediate separation. He was
incontinently shipoed to Europe,
where he still remains, and the
young wife was left to gradually de
cline in health until death ensued:
but not before she had reproached
her parents for driving her to the
alliance which wrought such early
ruin and blasted-such bright hopes
and expectations As the funeral
passed up a public street, the first
admirer of the body, watching with
blanched cheeks and moist eyes the
sad cortege, fell to the gi-ound white
suffering an attack of hemorrage of
the lungs. He was carried into a
physician’s office near, where he
died before the body of the one he
had so tender and truly loved was
laid in its last resting place—a vic
tim to a true and holy passion.
True is it that—
There's a bliss beyond all that the minstrel
.lias told
irhen two that are linked in one heavenly
tie,
With heart never changing, and brow never
cold,
Love on through all life, and love on till
they die.
One hour of a passion so sacred is worth
Whole ages of heartless and wonderful
bliss;
And, oh, if there be an Elysium on earth
It is this, it is this.
One can hardly pity the remorse
of the young lady’s parents, and yet
human sympathy will not refuse an
i‘amen’ tef their tearful cry of an
guish.

SAD STORY OF A YOUNG BOSTON LADY.
A funeral procession passdfi by
yesterday. A young man told me a
story that I think has a peculiar sad
ness about it. At Saratoga last
season at one of the largest balls
held at the Grand Union hotel was a
young lady with the most oharming
and fascinating manners and graces.
Her toilette was equally as pleasing
She was the belle of the ball—an
honor accorded her without dissent.
Her attendant during the evening
was a young man dressed almost
gaudily and bearing himself with all
the distasteful self-conceit of a brain
less millionaire, He was the son of
Truth in a Nutshell.
The N. Y. Tribune in -a recent
editorial on “Georgia Bonds,” ex
presses itself on" the general ques
tion as follows:
Loaded down as are the Southern
States by debts with which some of
them find it physically impossible to
struggle successfully, it is perhaps
not unnatural, although it is suf
ficiently alarming, that the desper
ate remedy of repudiation has sug
gested itself to a committee of the
Georgia Legislature. The Legisla
ture itself has, as yet, done nothing.
Nothing would please the Grant
party better than the spectacle of a
Democratic Legislature repudiating
a portion of the State’s carpet-bag
debt. The Grant party, highly mor
al and respectable as it is, relies
upon carpet-bag governments and
carpet-bag organization to carry
several of the Southern States. It
Would shock the parties to this un
holy alliance to see Georgia repudi
ate bonds for which she received no
compensation, although the robbery
itself gave them little concern. It
is a pity, however, that Bullock and
his ring have been forced to flee be.
yond the borders of the United
States, with the Presidential elec
tion just coming on, and Grant, the
carpeLbager's friend, a candidate
against Greeley, the carpet-bager’s
enemy. For yea s the influence of
the Administration has been steadily-
exerted to sustain just such thieving
governments as this in Georgia, to
impose them upon an unwilling peo
ple, and to force their unfit repre
sentatives into the National Senate,
where their votes might balance
those of Sumner, and Schnrz, and
Trumbull, and the other soreheads.
Is it any wonder that the South
rises os one man to protest against
the inetrference of the National
Government in State concerns, to
denounce the carpet-bag rule that
has led to their ruin, and to appeal
for permission once more to govern
themselves before they have nothing
but a wreck left to govern ?
Radicalism—I#3 Teachings in
North Carolina.
We learn that there was a discus
sion at Lilesville, in Anson county,
on Saturday last, between Hon.
Thos. Asbe, Col. R. T. Bennett and
J. M. Wall, Esq., Conservatives,
and Gen.' Alfred Dockery, James
Carraway and A. M. Boggan, Radi
cals, when"the colored men, who
were present were ‘considerably
wrought up at the appeal made to
them by ihl Radical speakers. At
the conclusion of the affair theTflack
Radicals from Wadesbo.ro and
Lanesboro, with a few whites,
formed into procession and proceed
ed by a fife and drum, marched to
•Wadesboro’. On arriving at that
town they proceeded to the houses
of the two Messers. Threadgill and
Mr. Thomas May, all highly respec
ted citizens of Anson county, which
they assaulted with rocks. The
owners thereupon sallied out and
endeavored to-induce them desist
their outrageous conduct, when.one
Kiamas (or Camas) McNair,* col
ored, one of the ringleaders, who
has heretofore enjoyed, to a great
extent, the confidence of the com
munity, collared Mr. Threadgill and
shook him very severely, the crowd
yelling and hooting like very devils
and encouraging him in the act. The
gentleman being completely over
powered by the black devils, many
ot whom were crazed with mean li
quor, could offer no rcsistence. The
wretches were proceeding to still
greater extremities, when they were
checked by. the timely appearance
on the scene of a number of white
citizens, who were as equally deter
mined to quell the disturbance as the
negroes were to make one. The lat
ter then retired with one man severe
ly injured, by ’ a rock, probably
thrown by some one of his own
friends.
The affair naturally caused the
most intense excitement in the town,
and the white citizens hastily pre
prepared themselves for any further
demonstrations. No others were
made, however, during Saturday
night, but the excited groups of ne
groes that were observed gathering
together on Sunday afternoon gave
fears of another attack, although
our informant, who left Lilesville
yesterday morning, had heard noth
ing further.
The disturbance is attributed, in
a great measure, to the influence of
one Caraway, a white Radical as
pirant for tiie State Senate, who was
-mainly instrumental in provoking
the trouble that occurred there a
few weeks ago,-^Wilmington Jour-
nal.
Humors of the Campaign.
Model Greeley Resolutions—By
“Red Hot.”
Whereas, The millenium has
dawned, and the wolf is lying down
with the lamb, and the lion is eating
straw like an ox, and -the abolition
ists and secessionists march under
the same flag, and the Radicals and
rebels walk arm in arm, and the
free-traders and protectionists are
cheek by jowl, and the Irish and the
negroes -eat of the same dish, and
Horace Greeley and Jeff Davis sleep
in the same bed, and the sucking
.child is playing on the hole of the
asp and women vote and ride astride,
and everything is lovely and the
goose hangs high; therefore,
Resolved 1st. That inasmuch as
the time has come for al? men to eat
dirt and Ourii somee3aults".' and no
igan thinks what he says, or believes
what he thinks, we unanimously rec
ognize the absolute equality of men,
including negroes, women and chil
dren; that we believe a mule’s ears
are as short as a horse’s, and that
the leopard can change his spots,
and that the negro is a man and a
brother, and having always favored
his mission to the ballot-box we now
welcome him to the social circle,
having something of an idea that all
the world was born of a mummy;
that things are not what they used
to be, and that there is a great deal
of up-side-downed-ness and down-
side-up-ward-ness, and bewildering
mixed-up-ative-ness generally.
Resolved 2nd. That being in great
doubt whether the rebellion failed or
succeeded, and not being certain
whether Grant or Lee surrendered
at Appomattox, and being of an
opinion that the South was either
right or wrong, and that neither was
either to hurt, we are unanimously
in favor of letting by-gones be by
gones, of burying the Stars and
Stripes in the same grave with the
Stars and Bars, of mixing three
parts of “Dixie” with two of “Yan-
kee-Doodle,” and marrying the Un
ion eagle with the rebel buzzard.
Resolved 3rd. That being a liberal
party, we favor liberty in all things,
in politics and in religion, in virtue
and intemperance, giving perfect
freedom to all, freedom to men and
(Vooilom ti) woman, oritioieiog
one’s opinion and no one’s action;
pardoning an occasional clean shirt
and a washed face; neither avering
that there is a hell; holding the Al
mighty in proper respect, at the
sametime not forgetting our old
friend Satah; believing that nothing
is up or down, but that everything is
standing or sideways, and in all
things " holding very fast with one
hand but altogether letting go with
the other.
Resolved 4th. That the Constitu
tion as it is is better than the Com
stitution as it was; that the Bible is
all very well in its place, but the
Book of Mormon is newer and the
writings of Confuscius older, and
every man is master ol his own con
science and conduct, and has a right
to make a God to suit himself; that
free" whisky and universal ignorance,
coupled-with free-love and. universal
salvation, make earth a paradise
and" heaven a certainty; but that,
nevertheless, all things are turning
round and the times are out of joint,
every straight road is crooked, the
earth turns backwards on its axis,
men walk zigzag, and their brains
are tospy-rturvy, the world is all be
witched, and a woman is the coming
man.
Resolved 5th. That inasmuch as
Judas Iscariot, though once a wick
ed man,, afterwards became an
apostle, and inasmuch as Benedict
Arnold shed blood in defense of
American liberty, and inasmuch as
Jeff Davis was not nominated, we
are heartily in favor of Horace
Greeley, .believing as we do that the
Democracy is not dead, but sleeptb,
and that- all roads" from Greeley go
to Grant; that Greeley was an orig
inal abolitionist; that the abolition
ists and secessionists always worked
to the same end, .and their present
combination is only a renewal of past
co-operation, and wonderful will it
he in the eyes of all men when the
arch-enemy of the Ivu-Klux becomes
their chief captain; when the prince
of protection becomes the king of
free-trade; when the champion of
temperance bears the banner of the
bar-room business, and Satan leads
the boats of Heaveh. Then truly
shall the last be first, for great is
the mystery of Greeleyness.
Gov. Smith’s Letter of Accep-
• tance.
Atlanta, Ga., July 24, 18T2.
Hon. James M. Smith, Atlanta:
Dear Sir—The undersigned have
been appointed a committee, by the
Democratic Convention, this day
assembled here, to inform you that
you have been nominated, - by a unan
imous vote of the Convention, as the
Democratic candidate for the*office
of Governor of Georgia. •
We, herewith, enclose a copy of
the resolutions adopted by the Con
vention. It gives us great pleasure
to make this communication, and to
assure you that your brief adminis
tration received the cordial indorse
ment of the Convention, as it had
already previously received the hear
ty approval of the people.
Permit us to express the hope of
our common constituents, and of our
selves personally, that you will accept
ihff nomination so heartily and unani
mously tendered.
With the highest respect for your
official and private character, and
with a Godspeed to you in th& good
work yon are now performing, we
remain, deaf sir, with great respect,
Yonr friends and obedient ser
vants,
James M. Mobley,

Warren Akin,
Committee,
Atlanta, Ga., July 29, 1872.
Messrs. James M. Mobley, Julian
Hartrige, Wm. E. Simmons, Ira
R. Foster, Warren Aiken, Com
mittee:
Gentlemen—I have the honor to
acknowledge the receipt of your
communication of the 24th inst., in-
lormjpg me that the State Democrat
ic Convention had nominated me
unanimously as their candidate for
the office of Governor.
For this great honor I cannot
command language in which to ex
press my gratitude. The unanimity
and heartiness with which the nomi
nation was made, add another to
the many obligations already resting
upon me, to serve with all possible
zeal and faithfulness a people Who
have so honored and trusted me.
The resolutions adopted by the
Convention have been carefully con-
eidorod, and I take pleasure in sta
ting that the principles therein enun
ciated meet with my warm approval
The re-affirmance of “the unchange-
doCtrine that this is a Union of States,
and that the indestructibility of the
States, of their rights, and of their
Equality with each other, is an indis
pensable part of our political sys
tem,” is a pledge on the part of the
Convention that the Democracy of
Georgia will continue to adhere to
4he principles of constitutional
government.
These great fundamental princi
ples of our Federal system should
*3ver be forgotten or abandoned.
And yet, "to use the language of one
of the resolutions, I fully “recognize
the exigencies ot the times which
suggested and secured the nomina
tion by the Democratic party at
Baltimore, of Horace Greeley and
B. Gratz Brown, as candidates for
President and Vice President of the
United States, and regard their elec
tion as conducive to the preserva
tion of the rights of the States, to
local self-goveroment, and the pro
tection of the individual liberty ot
the citizens.”
It would be uncandid ia me not
say that I should have been glad if
this exigency had not been upon us.
The power of naming the candi
dates, however, was specifically
lodged by the party in "the National
Convention. That Convention, like
a court of the last resort, is the
highest party tribunal in the land,
and beyond it there is no other or
further appeal without going outside
of the party. This latter course
cannot adopt. I cannot separate
myself from my own people. Nay,
more: I would stand by them, even
when in the wrong, rather than give
the enemies of good government my
countenance and support.
The National Convention having
nominated candidates for Presidency
and Vice-Presidency, and-the State
Convention having recognized and
accepted these candidates, I shall
not permit myself to call in question
either the wisdom aDd patriotism
which directed the choice made by
one, or the acceptance and indorse
ment accorded by the other, (fhe
Democratic party, with Greeley and
Brown as its candidates is infinitely
preferable, iq my judgment, to any
political organization in the country.
I shall give to the Baltimore nomi
nees, therefore, my earnest and
zealous support, believing ‘that in
their election the cause of honesty
and constitutional government will
achieve a triumph over fraud, cor
ruption and usurpation.
I may add that since my acces
sion to office, I have had but little
time to bestow upon national affairs.
We havg great work before us here
in Georgia, sufficient to engage the
best efforts of every patriot in the
State, and I have given my hand
and heart to that work. To com
plete this work successfully, it is ne
cessary that we preserve the integ
rity of the Democratic party here at
home,- It is necessary that we be
united and zealous, and forbearing,
slow to condemn our brethren, or to
magnify differences upon matters of
minor concern. If we but pursue
this course, the good work we have
in hand will have been finished at
no distant day. Meanwhile, let ns
hope that the great and powerful
party to which we belong, will be
enabled, with the aid of liberal and
patriotic men from other political
organizations, to accomplish the
same beneficent revolution in' our
national affairs that we have al
ready effected here in Georgia.
With the highest appreciation of
the honor conferred upon me, and
with many thanks for the kind terms
employed by you in* communicating
the action of the Convention, I ac
cept the nomination, with a pledge
that, if elected, I shall to the best of
my ability, discharge the duties of
the great trust placed in my hands
by a confiding people. Very truly.
James M. Smith.
