The Weokly Democrat. BEN. E. RUSSELL, ■ Proprietar. Ben E. Russell, - - R. M. Johnston, EDITORS. Bainbridge, (Ja., May 11, 187G. Tbc Milledgeville Union and Recorder says any man who wilt golrefore the peo ple of Georgia as a candidate for Gover nor, with the removal of the Capitol to Milledgeville as his platform, will be triumphantly elected. With a due sense of the profoundness of all opinions eme- natiua- as above, we are nevertheless con vinced that that would be about as poor a platform as it is possible to scare lip. We are sick of so much of this disgruntled talk about the removal of the Capitol to Milledgeville. Atlanta has the Capitol, and we are in favor of letting It remain with her. The Radical delegates to the Cincinnati Convention stand as follows: For Mor ton, 5; for Bristow, 6; for Conkling, *3; for Blaine, 8. The leader of the party in this District, Maj Whiteley, (who is not a delegate, however) is f Blaine man and controlled the District in that direction. The delegates from the Second are Wade and Putney, both for Maine of Blaine. What excuse can those newspapers who nre decrying Mr. Hill in connection with thd Senatorial election have for their course. Mr. Hill, nor any of his friends, so far as we have heard, have said any thing about the matter as yet. Gentle men you must have some reason for be lieving Mr. Hill’s chances very promising. The Augusta Chronic’e and Sentinel has an awful plaili way of saying things. It asks, will the few newspapers that are so much disgruntled by the election of Gov ernor Smith, Messrs. Barnes, Lester and Wofford as delegates to St. Louis from the State at large please suggest a better ticket ? That irrepressible glass-eyed fraud,Carl Shurz, is kicking up a row again trying to form a new party. We voted with this Radical foreigner once, but if we can, by doing any stated amount of penance, get forgiveness therefor, Carl Shurz will not occupy the same boat with us again. Hanged if he does. We have heard of no complaints, and can’t see what moved Harris to say : The invitations to the press excursion to Ty- bee, issued by the Morning News, were intended to include every Georgia editor. Those who have received no formal invi tation will, we trust, attribute the fact to inadvertence. The Democrats of South Carolina have held their convention. They send Gen. John Bratton, Hon. W. D. Porter, D. Wyatt Aiken and Gen. J. D. Kennedy as delegates at large. The delegates are un instructed, and have different preferences as to candidates. the the . Maj. Whitely was considerably snubbed at the Radical convention at Atlanta. His name was reported by the Committee as a delegate for the State at Laige to the Cin cinnati Convention,but was almost unani mously voted down and that of Wallace, a negro, substituted. Gen. Colquitt’s friends claim that all the newspapers are for him. We think we know of just one or two that are not, and would not be afraid to venture the asser tion that there are several people, in Georgia who are not in favor of Colquitt for Gov ernor. Though we’ll see what we’ll see. Nothing short of the name of William E. Smith will do the people in the next Congressional race. He is not on'y the man above all others to make, successful ly, the stubborn fight approaching, but it is due him to give him another term. People of Southwest Georgia, who are benefitted by that great thoroughfare, the A. & G. Railroad, should remember Col. Hardeman’s services in securing to us that great link which gives us intercomse with the outuside world. Ocit Ticket.—For President, Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware; for Vice President, Gen. W. S. Hancock; for Gov ernor, Hon. Tom Hardeman, of Bibb; for Congress, Second District, lion. Win. E. Smith, of Dougherty. The Live Oak [Fla.] Times has changed front, and is now a Radical sheet. Keep has been keeping had company, and the result is a full fledged Florida Radical, beside whom a Georgia nigger is a perfect Sunday School. The Macon Telegraph says Col. Herbert Fielder will be a candidate for Congress in this District. We’re not surprised, for that was something to be expected all the while. Mr. Hardeman was among the last men whose disabilities the Radical Congress would remove. This is enough, within itself, to illustrate his services to the South during and since the war. Congress is taking a holiday this week to visit the Centennial. We will have a rest for a few days, and official thieves can now venture out to get a glass of beer. This country may be said to be suffer ing just now from a triple combination of disorders—Bclknappery, Grantism, and Babcoc.kvpop. The Senior editor is in Savannah at tending the Press jamboree. That ac counts for the absence of anything heavy this week. THE COLUMBUS INFAMY. We have read the evidence adduced before the Commitment trial in the case of the Rev. C. A. Kendrick, pastor of the Baptist church in Columbus, Ga., charged with the seduction of Fannie Bush, a girl thirteen years of age. We had hoped, eagerly hoped, that the Reverend scoun drel would prove himself to be the victim of a conspiracy, as be stoutly maintained he would be able to do, hut the evidence shows nothing of the kind. It shows, however, that Kendrick, under tile cloak of a minister of the Gos pel and a Sunday School Teacher, has ■been having criminal intercourse with this girl for months. . While her parents were sure she was receiving religious in struction from the ripe experience of a man of God, she was being seduced, de stroyed and damned, by the most infa mous libertine of whom we have ever heard. The testimony is damning, and proceeds from the mouths of eye-witnes ses, as well as from the lips of the unfor tunate girl herself. As her Sunday’ School teacher, this villain robs her of her virtue, and then puts lies in her mouth to screen him from guilt. Futhermore, he deliber ately plans the crime of abortion, if nec essary, to prevent the exposure of his deviltry’ that must necessarily follow course he had been pursuing. And this man was pastor of one of finest congregations in the city’ of Colum bus. No clergyman stood higher than he. Young, handsome, talented, eloquent, he stood head and shoulders above any other minister of his age in the State. And horror or horrors ! just before be was discovered in this crime and shame, lie had been the head-centre of a great re vival of religion in liis church! Think of it! A fiend of the lowest Hell exhorting souls to Christ, with the destruction of a thirteen-year old girl reeking in his con science. Before the crime of this mon ster, all kindred deeds in history pale by comparison. Is there no earthly retribution for this fiend incarnate, who robs virtue of its in nocence and turns the very House of God into a bagnio of adultery and fornica tion? Is there no carl hly retribution for the ministerial hypocrite who “goes in and out before liis people,” as a paragon of piety and religion; but in the by-places, tfiat his incarnate lusts be satisfied, con demns to perpetual disgrace the lambs of his flock ? He deserves to be branded, stripped to the skin, and trade to run the gauntlet of the outraged people of Georgia, each one of whom, being armed with a whip of steel, to lacerate his carcass of human rot tenness as he passes, until he falls to earth dead, an example to the country for ail time to come. What a lesson this conveys to parents, to guardians, to brothers, and to young women. Whenever a girl throws off that proper maidenly Teserve—whenever she becomes intimate with anybody of the name of man, preacher or other person, right then she is in danger of losing that most priceless of all boons—that which, if lost, can never be regained—virtue. There is a lesson in this to all. Heaven grant tlwit we may all learn and appre ciate it. The Albany News corrects a current mistake by stating that Col. E. C, Bower, a rising young man of nnd presidential delegate from the second district, is a citizen of Early county. He never lived in Decatur county.—Constitution. W hefi Hie Atlanta Constitution makes an error and then iudeavors to explain, it is like dusting the parlor table with a sut bag—it gets things “worse off.” Mr. Bower is a: native of Decatur county, at least he has iived here since childhood. He has resided iu Early county’ for three or four y’ear-;. But it docs’nt make a particle of differ ence where Mr. Bower resides, he is a man, every inch a man, and a rising young lawyer. When we heard of his selection as a delegate we threw up our cap, for we regarded it as a triumph of the yovng Democracy’. “Carlos,” the Washington correspon dent of the Savannah News, says: The fact that Ben Hill and General Toombs appeared as opposing counsel in a cotton case before the Supreme Court a week or two or ago was stated at the time. I am told Ben has won his case. And now I hope the talented rural editor will not rise up and charge me with concocting a conspiracy against the mein! er from the Ninth district. The “rural editor” has made no charge. In liis attacks upon Mr. Hill, the designs of “Carlos” were too transparent to re quire any’ charges to be preferred, for every one who rend them could see plain ly’ the motive which prompted the as saults The light has triumphed, and Harney Richard, who was maliciously accused of the murder of Johnson, of Florida, has been acquitted. A dispatch to the S;u. vanuah News says: “Harney Richard’s case was given to the jury this evening, and they retired at night. After remain ing out two hours they’ returned a verdict of acquittal. The prisoner was thereupon discharged, amid the congratulations of STOPPING INVESTIGATION ’1 he Senate, the Administration, and the King courts at Washington have ail combined to thwart and to defeat furth er investigation into the frauds and corruptions which have thus far as tounded the country. The Republican leaders perceive that if the exposures continne to be made as they have be gun, defeat at the Presidential election is certain. They know how much is yet con:ealed, and they dread the con sequences that must follow new proofs of an organized system of robbery and rascality, such as has already been found in almost every hrancli of the public service It would be impolitic, and, in the present temper of the public mind, perhaps dangerous to oppose investiga tion openly, as that would be nearly equal, to a confession of guilt, lienee the leaders have proceeded insidiously to effect their objects and to tie tile hands of the people’s representatives by artful expedients They have cau cused and sought to do by indirect means what they would not dare to at- at,tempt directly. After the flight of Marsh to Canada, it became evident that, unless witnesses were properly protected, investigation would be clucked, and, in fact, be made dependent upon voluntary testimony. A bill was therefore passed by the House to extend immunity for the pur pose of obtaining evidence of frauds on the Government, and exposing the cor rupt complicity-of officials. The Sen ate has stifled that hill and thus given its protection to Kings and robbers. Under the power of the House to call for persons and papers, no question has been heretofore raised about produ cing originals from the departmental files in aid of investigation. In many cases the/ are indispensable for that ob ject, since copies would furnish no cite ORGANS. BEST AND CHEAPEST. 90,000 MADE AND SOLD Easiest Terms for Payment. every honest man. The conspirators are | t0 a var i et y of frauds that have been chagrined and mortified at their defeat The court’s charge to the jury’ was re markably impartial.” A great howl is already being raised over the anticipated scarcity of small change. Everybody, the papers say are hoarding the fractional currency to ex change for silver—and when they get the coin they are so elated at the novelty that they hold on to it instead of putting it afloat in the business world. Of course this is all wrong, hut the novelty’ will soon wear off, and small change will be abun dant as ever. The Bainbridge Democrat is now in favor of the nomination of Col. Harde man as the Democratic candidate for Governor, and expresses the opinion that he is the choice of the Democracy of De catur county. We know that Decatur polities are sonic times peculiar, but think it a little strange that the people of that county should he tor Hardeman when the balance of Southwestern Georgia are almost unanimously for Colquitt. So strange do we think it that we don’t quite believe it, with due deference to the Democrat.—Blakely News. For a man of his years, and one, too, whose extreme piety has given birth to the report that he is a preacher, we think our friend Fleming’s utter recklessness in making assertions something extraordina ry’. Of course wc igjiy be wrong, but stijl we hazard the remark that “the bal ance of Southwestern Georgia” is not “al most unanimously for Colquitt.” As for Decatur county’, we can’t see arything very peculiar in her being in favor of Hardeman, for no better man lives in Georgia, nor one more competent to as sume the powers of Governor. Of course Brother Fleming must know that newspa per ideas are not always the ideas of every man who reads them, and while Harde man may, or may not, be the favorite here, we say every indication is in his favor, and our opinion is Decatur county will give him her votes in the convention." Is Mr. Fleming certain Early’ county is for Colquitt ? Augusta Chronicle: Rev. W. Watkin Hicks has managed to keep in very hot water since he went to Florida. His latest exploit was to call Mr. H. J. Baker, of Fernandina, a liar. The scene was the Circuit Court room, but Mr. Baker resent ed the insult by’ caning the reverend gen tleman on the spot. The Louisville Jeffersonian Democrat thinks it is safe to assert that there is no disposition on the part of any considerable number of democrats anywhere to put up with any nonesense in the approaching presidential contest, and that the St. o umbus had a big fire [ast wogji—lossi Louis convention will nominate a square- about thirty.five thousand dollars. out democrat without any doubt. The proposition says the Atlanta Con stitution to pay Pinehback ten thousand or twenty thousand or any other sum from the'treasury is outrageous and ab surd. If Pinch is entitled to a dollar of the public money he is entitled to a seat in the Senate. The Senate has decided that question, and any’ sum voted to the repudiated mulatto would be clear steal. lion. Dawson A. Walker is willing to be beat for Governor again. He evident ly likes it, and, in his efforts to make himself a first-class martyr, reminds the witty Chronicle and Sentinel of the’ bull that butted Hie locomotive. Wc can say’ of him what the engineer said of the bull: We admire his pluck, but damn liis"judg ment. Through the continuous effortsof Sena tor Norwood and Representatives llart- ridge and Blount, the Committee on Ap propriations have agreed to an amend ment to ’he naval appropriation bill re quiring the Secretary’ of the Navy to make a naval rendezvous and coaling station at the mouth of the Savannah riveron Tybee and Cockspur Islands. Predictions by the St Paul Dispatch: “First—Governor R. B. Hays.of Ohio,will be the Republican nominee for President at Cincinnati. Second—Governor Samuel J. Tilden, of New York, will be the Democratic nominee for President at St, Louis. Third—Governor Tilden will be elected in November.” The Atlan'a Constitution, in speaking of the action of the'New York Demo, rats, says: The New York democrats declared “home rule,” which is t he new phrase for self-government and opposition to central ization. We do not care what they call it if they only stand up stoutly’ for the great saving principle itself. Three cheers for Hardeman ! He is gaining strength every day, and our hon est conviction is he will be our next Gov ernor. Macon Telegraph: “From numerous pri vate souces, as well as personal observation, we are pl°ased lo say thTft Col. Hardeman is steadily gaining ground in all portions of the State, and his chances of a nomination are excellent. Just, discreet, honorable and liberal in his demeanor to all. few can resist the magnetism of his presence, and that splendid eloquence which carries every thing beforeit.” The Same Story Everywhere. Let all people and places who feel their condition particularly cramped, remember that all others feel the same way. There is no exception in any part of the United States. All business is prostrate every where and all people who have no past ac cumulations to draw upon are suffering great inconvenience and anxiety. He is fortu nate who is able to command a decent sub sistence, and he is foolish who indulges in a chronic discontent because he can do no bet ter. Nothing better can be done until the restoration of a general equilibrium. Taxes and expenses have to come down, and the spirit of idleness, extravagance, luxury, speculation and fraud must be exercised. Providence is instructing the people on the subject of an honest industry and frugality in such a way that few can evade the force of the lesson.—Macon Telegraph. II B.

Recent experience ha shown that many of the large claims passed through .he Treasury and the Pension Office were supported by forg ed papers. The President has now is sued an order forbidding originals to be delivered to the House. This is liis method of obstructing inquiry and shielding forgers and conspirators from detection and punishment. The House of Representatives order ed Hallett Kilbourn, one of the most notorious of the Ring joobers at Wash ington, into custody for refusing to an swer questions which would expose the real estate pool in and out of Congress; and now the Ring court has released him, in defiance of the authority of the House to restrain a witness in contempt Thus the Senate, the Administration, and the Ring courts conspire tog< ther to prevent the IT< use < f Representa tives from uncovering the iniquities which are hidden in the books and re cords of the public departments, it remains to be seen how far the House will submit to these assaults.

At once a crowd of about sixty colored men, armed with clubs and in part with revolvers, made a rush fur the scene of supposed conflict, ready to spill Democratic blood in any quantity on order. On nearing their destination they were met by several of their white captains, who made an attempt to quell this mob violence. The two parties came together on Illinois street, near the Grand Hotel. The negroes were loud and furious, and the Democrats hot and thirsty to get even for outrag es endured all day. It was impossible to control the violence whqn started. An immense crowd had gathered and closed in around the negroes, who beat a retreat up Illinois strett in scattered ranks. One shot started the fray. Firing became general on both sides, the police taking part with the attack ing party. Seven-were injured, all ne groes^ three fatally, one of whom, Wil liam Brown, was shot through the heart and died instantly, and the other two, Andy Cartel and Jacob Green, are now at the point of death, and will expire before morning. Carter had his bowels horribly cut with an immense bowie knife. No arrests have been made as yet, it .eeming impossible to fix the crime. The effect upon the ne ro pobulation was ominous. They gathered in Buck- town arid swore to gut the Sentinel of fice. Governor Hendricks ordered the Sheriff to arm a body cf one hundred and fifty men, and they stood ready fur service in the State House offices May or Caven got Tom Brov’ne and others and harrangued the negroes, and finally succeeded in quieting the commotion. This bloody conclusion of the day was not unexpected, but thedis grace is keen ly felt by both parties. 'J he Republi cans to-night raised two thousand dol lars to prosecute the instigators of the riot, thus intending to make capitcl out of what they claim a murderous and unprovoked assault. The election is a most disgraceful finale to the Republi can ruffianism, and is no criterion of the way the State will go in the fall. ELEGANT NEW STYLES CHEAPER AND ULi THAN EVER BEFORE PRODUCED.
