in that Whiteley negro sheet,

J parties are formed on new is-
divide the people, are resposi-
an act crushing to the “poor

this negro-worshiping politician
that the poor niCU of the coun-
ive no sense, that he thus seeks
udiee them against the white
and white principles ?

porting the Government of Geor-

than all we would ask, does
v eeate of negro equality with
race, not know that the priv-
1 being taxed is one of the ines
e rights of freemen, that the
race of Georgia and Decatur
' w ho felt their citizenship do
’Jcct to conferring on the negro
race that he especially, p.rticularly and
almost exclusively represents.
Gsr dear Major, you who would de
grade tts to the level of the negro race,
let us tell you onje for all. fo r we know
we speak the sentiments of white men,
that we would(even if it were true) be
wil ing to be taked a little more to let
yoUr negro followers feel a little of the
benefits of citizebahip.
Let us tell you again, and most em
phatically, that the Caucasian blood
flews as freely and as purely in the
viens of the poor man of this country
as it does in 'he Veins of the rich, and
no pecuniary consideration, even if you
could convince them, it was the result
of bad legislation ; would cause them
to forget that they were while tiicn, and
above the level of the negro race, whom
you declared by your vote in Congress,
were their eq lals, and a little better.
Toe the mark Major ; the issue you
have made is that the negro is the so
cial equal of the white man, and don’t
try to win votes by awakening preju
dice, but fight it out squarely on that
line. You said you were proud of the
record, and stand to it like a man, even
if you don’t get back to Congress.

Too Good to be Lost.
It was my good lortune. ,to attend
the celebration, of the Pine Hill School,
located near Mr. Frank Dollar’s on last
Wednesday, July the 29th. The clas
es acquitted themselves with more than
usual honors on such occasions, there
by confeatirtg a lasting honor ou their
Teacher Miss Jennie King. When
the several classes finished their exer
cises at ten minutes past 12 o’clock.
Rev Abraham Beleher addressed the
audience with a short but very interest-
discourse, at the close of which he
introduced Col Daniel McGill, who en
tertained the large audience one hour
and a half, with one of the most elabor
ate lectures on Education that we ever
heard; the effect ef which is to day visi
ble among our neighbors for good. The
u-»* ot Education m uecatur County
is blessed by his labors, Bainbridge may
be proud—the State of Georgia may be
proud—and I will not go too far when ;
I say, the United States may be proud
of such a m: n as Co’. McGill. At two
o'clock P. M. we were summoned to a
long tible groaning under the weight
of luxuties that had been prepared with
great care for the occasion. A hint
was enough, aba we were soon feasting
on better diet than we have usually for
dinner. Dinner over the crowd amused
themselves in the beautiful grove as
they chose until about four in the after
noon, when we found ourselves on the
the road homeward musing over what
we had seen and heard; being fully con
vinced that it is good to attend such
celebrations.

tentioo of mankind as none of our battles
have. It will be more easily comprehended
bv them. It will be rebellion and slavery
epitomised and embodied in the form aud
person of their chief man; and then behead
ed for their silts. And the people will un
derstand that simple, tragic thing. And it
will sink into them; and it will hallow love
in their feeling forever more. Let ft come
then. History waits for it. The greatest
work of modern times—enr loyal war I
mean—wait3 for its capstone. Ltt it be
raised to its bed. Not with shoutings, but
in silence and tears, if you please. But let
it be raised. And. in the words of cur great
martyr, when he wrote the decree' which
has made him inimortal—
“Upon this, our coming solemn act of
justice, we invoke the blessing of Almighty
God and the cofisicf&rate judgment of man
kind.” Amen and amen.

KEW ADVERT’CEMENTS.
Henry'Ward Beeciier on the Fate of
Mr Davis-
Rev. Henry ft ard Beecher once delivered
a long sermon upon the fate of Affi. Davis,
which is suggestive of the lines:
That uie*-ey I to others show,
The mercy shew to me.
I« conclusion he saul
1 speak it with a certain reluctance, and
the thought oftentimes, when it comes, even
touches me with grief, but 1 believe that Mr.
Davis, for example will be hung. Already
the scene rises before me. lie is tried; he
is convicted; he stands on the scaffold. All
nations have watched the sure process ot
the law; all nations have listened to the
charges laid at his door; all nations gather
at tnc scaffold. There are some things to
plead for him. He is a man of distinguished
ability; he has conducted his war with per
tinacity and courage: lie was the beloved
leader of the multitudes of the South, and
even now millions would shield him it tliey
could. He has a wife who loves him, aud
children who cannot understand his crime;
he is surrounded by the miguty, innumerable
North, who, the war being over aud its hot
passions cooled, have no nate and no malice,
and nothing more and nothing worse than a
chastened, sorrowful indignation toward
him.
They would release him if they could. If
they could forget the dead; It tnev were not
compassed about with a great cloud of wit
nesses; if their bells ot victory were not
drowned by their bells of muurntng; it tney
could forget their country; if they could tor-
get their God, they could give way to their
pity lor a brother man in his extremity,
they hear voices from over the sea; voices
of sympathy lor him: voices pleading; occa
sional voices of threatening, may be. But
nothing avails; nothing avails; he can’t be
spared; he would not consent to peace; he
would not be just: he would not be a patriot;
he must die. Aud the axe comes down, and
the world shudders, and the great traitor is
dead. And 1 claim that such a scene and |
spectacle as that will do more for the sta- 1 bay horse mules, one mare mule, also one
bility of the couutry and for the cause of gray mare and one- sorrel horse, one two
public order than almost any dozen great horse wagon, one ox cart, one rockway, one
acts of these last four years. I yoke oxen, seven head stock cattle, seven-
