Got Right.
General Jubal Early, the strong
est and most influential “ strait out ”
in Virginia, very gracefully abandons
the “movement,” and comes out for
Greeley. He says that any resist
ance to Greeley is assistance to Grant,
and he cannot support a mere pup
pet and a “ mere tool.” He is very
bitter, yet just his denunciation
of Grant’s administration, and the
foul manner in which he has used
the influence of the “ White House,”
in local affairs. We are glad Gen.
Early has come over. We have long
thought him too true a son of the
Old Dominion to stay in such bad
. company. Welcome.
Henry Wilson.
Wo publish the following little
7Moiree.aux from the ranting candidate
for "Vico Presidency, on the Grant
ticket, for the benefit of Southern
men who prefer Grant to Greeley :
“ I hope the Republican party will con
tinue to hold tbegovernmentof this coun
try and ooutrol its affairs, for at least a
century to come. [Great applause.] 1
think it will take at least a hundred years
to make every drop of rebel blood in this
land loyal blood; to make every heart that
loved slavery love liberty ; to make every
man that believes in caste believe that God
has made us all, and that Christ died for
us, and that we are brothers the wide
world over. The mission of the Republi
can party of the United States is not ac
. cvomplished.”
liow now, good friends ? Are you
ready to endorse “ across the bloody
chasm,” these sentiments.
Pendleton-Greeley.
Hon. Geo. H. Pendleton made a
forciple and eloquent speech at Cin
cinnati, last Monday week, from
which we cull the subjoined para
graph for the benefit of our strayed
out Democrats :
Is there any Democrat who halts and
doubts as to his course ? Is there any who
lears for his consistency, or doubts the du
ly of patriotism? I love the Democratic
party ; I know its courage; 1 know itspu
rity ; I believe in its principles; I revere
its wisdom ; when it speaks C will obey.
“All men are wiser than one man.” When
its wisdom and purity shall point out the
course and lead the way, what Democrat
shall say he cannot tread that path with
honor and consistency ; When its patri
otism shall counsel, what Democrat shall
say that he is too pure to follow the ad
vice? When its lofty spirit shall banish
E artisan pride, what Democrat shall say
eis too proud to follow the example ? 1
do not expect Mr. Greeley, if elected, to
give us a partisan Administration. 1
would not. respect him if he should do so ;
it would be contrary to the spirit of this
movement, but he has promised that he
will restore a true fraternal affection to our
people ; that be will give us purity and
honesty in Administration, and it is folly
to refuse these, because we can obtain no
more.
What will Clews & Cos. Say ?
When the Georgia Legislature re
pudiated the illegal issue of the bonds
by Bullock and his confreres, Hen
ry Clews very adroitly managed to
raise a great cry against the Geor
gia Democracy, on Wall street, and
in the public prints of the would-be
leading papers in the North.
Now, we see from the New York
World, that the courts of that State
have pronounced certain bonds ille
gal, because not issued in accordance
with law. Here we have the action
of our State Legislature sustained
by the courts of Mr. Clew’s own State.
No longer can he charge their action
to partizan, strife and malice. No
longer can he denounce us as out
laws. in this matter. We can now
point to his own State and home for
a precedent. If it is right that the
great State of New York, or any of
its public corporations should repu
diate bonds fraudulently and illegal
ly issued, we would like for Mr.
Clews, to train us in a logic, to prove
that Georgia is wrong in doing the
same thing. It won’t do Henry.
An old lawyer says that the three
most troublesome clients he ever had,
were a young woman who wanted to
be married, a married one who want
ed to be unmarried, and an old maid
who didn’t know what she wanted.
THE GEORGIA ELECTION.
Now that the smoke of battle has
lifted from r the held, we can take a
calm and dispassionate retrospect of
the campaign. The victory inJGeor
gia as a whole is complete—the de
feat of the enemy overwhelming, not
to say disgraceful. Smith is elected
Governor by a majority unpreceden
ted in the annals of political warfare
in this State. The Legislature is large
ly Democratic and Conservative. And
thus the lovers of good government,
honest administration of the law, low
taxes and the restriction of State au
thorities to the legitimate ends and
purposes of legislation, 'instead of
wandering off into the devious paths
and dirty tricks of specnlation, pec
ulation and stock jobbing have an
earnest of better days in store. The
patriot everywhere breaths freer. The
Georgian who, with his hand to his
heart and eye uplifted to Heaven,
feels conscious that the victory is in
part due to his effort, his vote and
his endeavor; bears himself with a
manlier, prouder, sturdier step, arm
ed as he is with the proud conscious
ness of duty done. His conscience
is at rest. With this approval, he
feels that h 6 helped to give anew
lease of life to Republican Represen
tative Government and to the driv
ing from the Temple of Liberty the
thieves and money-changers who so
long have desecrated its sacred pre
cincts. Georgia has asserted her
disapproval of dishonesty and cen
tralism and her sons who have help
ed her in the hour of her trial feel
invigorated and regenerated.
In taking this retrospect, it ap
pears that only six counties in Geor
gia return Radical majorities. Os
these six, Mclntosh the home of Rev.
Tunis G. Campbell, colored, and De
catur the residence of Hon. Richard
H. Whiteley, white, return the larg
est Radical majorities. A disgraceful
pre-eminence!!! In Mclntosh there
sult may have been apprehended.—
This county, mostly abandoned by
its late white citizens is virtually sur
rendered to the semi-barbarous rice
field negro. Here Radicalism runs
riot. It battens upon the ignorance
and stupidity of the rice field negro
as naturally as the toad battens upon
the slime and vapors, which exude
from the dams and dykes which
surround him. It needed but the
prurient ambition and malignity of
Rev. Tunis, to lead them like “ dumb
driven cattle ” to consummate his
schemes and those of his as unscrup
ulous masters.
Os Decatur —what shall we say ?
In Decatur the truth demands the
statement that our defeat and the
Radical triumph was due to illegal
voting and Democratic dissensions
and divisions. The first of these
causes we hope will be investigated
and the remedy applied. But as to
the second, is there not food for calm,
patriotic reflection ? Is there noth
ing in our late defeat, whence we
may draw inspiration for renewed
effort in future struggles ? Is there
nothing, that we, as a Journalist owe
to the party ? Asa sentry upon the
watch tower is it or not our duty to
say that division is weakness and
repeat the thrice told tale that in
unity there is strength. Does- or not
ourself or any reader blush for shame
when he thinks upon Democratic
division and per contra , remembers
the Leagues and Grant clubs as they
marched to.tbepolls on election day ?
If the negro, who blindly casts his
vote as his soul-master tells him, can
organize and preserve party unity
and homogeneity, simply that party
may triumph and Whiteley and his
co-conspirators line their pockets
with official gold, why cannot the
white man, who can give a reason for
the faith that is in him do the same ?
What has become of the boasted su
periority of white brains and white
patriotism ? Are these myths ? The
negroes can, it may be said without a
pui’pose or a motive, unite and march
to the polls to carry out the purpo
ses of their leaders no matter wheth
er understood by them or not. Cer
tainly, the white man should, to pre
serve the great stakes at issue in the
last and pending canvass, be enabled
to sacrifice somewhat of selfish greed
or individual conviction—or whim it
may be—to their attainment Yet
there were many who absented them
selves from the polls and can give
no better excuse.
Is there a remedy? There is. Pub
lic opinion must be educated up to
the point. Patriotism mast teach,
that in a struggle of this sort, there
is work for every man to do, and say
with Nelson at Trafalgar, not England
—but the genius of American, Con
stitutional Liberty, “expects every
man to do his duty.” We do not
counsel proscription. We urge no
ostracism for opinions sake. But
we do insist, that while on the one
hand individual ambition shall be
subjected to the public weal, that on
the other, lafcy, indolent patriotism
shall be roused and if necessary,
goaded by a sound, healthy public
sentiment to the discharge of duty
to country, to family and to race.
This is a necessary deduction from
the last election. Negroes cannot and
will not be persuaded, enticed or
drawn from obedience to party lash.
’Tis worse than idle to argue with
them. The whites o§ the superior, if
not the dominant race, must, by their
intelligence and enlarged views save
them and bestow the blessing of
good government upon them and us,
despite the earnest, persistent effort
of the negro himself in his blind, un
questioning following of his unscrup
ulous leaders. The task may seem
and is difficult, but not hopeless and
the ecstacy in the hour of victory will
be in proportion to the difficulty and
hazards of the battle. It is an inci
dent of the new civilization attempt
ed to be forced upon us. But a union
of sentiment and concentration of
action and effort on the part of the
whites has effected greater things
than this and can effect this. Give
us these, accompanied with that ear
nest effort which a healthful public
sentiment will develop and force to
the polls and at the same time we
will have applied the axe to the root
of the other evil, illegal voting.
Would you redeem your county
and tear from her fair face the smoke
grimed veil of a dirty negroism which
befouls while it obscures her linea
ments; —then preach to white men.
Rouse them. Bid them to the bat
tle and teach them, that freedom
wants no idlers in her camps or no
divisions in her counsels. Let us
learn and practice this lesson daily
and hourly from now till the ides of
November. 1
Our word for it you will not regret
your labor.
BUTTS AND BUTLER VS.
SWEARINGEN AND NICH
OLSON.
Notices have been served on Tom
Swearingen and Aleck Nicholson,
the Radical members elect from this
county to the House of Representa
tives, that Butts and Butler, will
proceed to contest their election, and
take evidence therein, in Bainbridge
on the 16th inst., before Justice Dar
den.
This is a wise step. There is not
an honest and impartial citizen in
thq county, who does not know that
Swearingen and Nicholson, received
hundreds of illegal votes. The ille
gality of the votes that gave them a
majority over Butts and Butler is*
not only apparent but glaring.
The main ground of contest is that
about five hundred votes were cast
for the Radical ticket by persons,
who had not previously paid their
taxes as required by the constitution
of the State.
These persons were mostly negroes
who on the day of the election, paid
cne dollar, to either the real or as
sumed agents of the Tax Collector,
and took receipts from them for it,
and upon the faith of these receipts
took the oath required and voted.
,'ome of these receipts were signed
in blank by the Tax Collector and
filled out by these agents, and others
were not only filled out by these
agents, but signed by them. In
other instances the receipts were de
livered to the voter without his first
having paid the one dollar.
Not only Butts and Butler, but the
Democracy of the county, by whom
they are influenced in the contest,
claim that all of this is illegal. Even
Farrow, the great High Priest of
Radicalism in Georgia, instructs his
party in his circulai, that the tax m ust
be paid to the Tax Collectors or the
officers holding the fi fa’s. In Savan
nah. every voter who had thus paid
his tax to agents, was excluded from
the polls. The same course was adop
ted at other places, and should have
been here. We urged the managers of
the election at this precinct to refuse
their ballots, but after consultation
among themselves, they determined
to receive them, upon the voters tak
ing the oath, though at the time, they
said they regarded the votes as ille
gal.
The act of the Legislature of 2862,
expressly declares, that it shall not
be lawful for any Tax Collector to
appoint agents ; and so far as we
have been able to investigate, this
act stands unrepealed, as there has
been no subsequent legislation on
subject. Even if this act should be
repealed, or inoperative, it is an un
controvertable principle of the law,
that a public officer cannot act
through agents, unless there is an
express grant of power for him so to
do.
Now if these statements and prop
ositions be true, the duty of Butts
and Butler, and that of the whole
Democracy of the county is clearly
marked out. Contest to the fast . Do
not give tip a victory you have law-
■fully won. If you do, you don t de
serve success. Let every man do
what he can in the matter. If you
can do noth’ng else, contribute a lit
tle of your spare cash to defray ex
penses. It is not right that Butts
and Butler should pay the whole ex
pense. It is a charge upon the De
mocracv of Decatur county, and from
all we can hear, we hesitate not to
say, that all the good and true, will
stand up to Butts and Butler.
Echoes From Our Election.
[From the Baltimore Gazette.]
The Georgia election has had a
very peculiar effect upon our Radi
cal breteren. Many of their organs,
we regret to say, have not yet found
out that an election was held in that
commonwealth on Wednesday last,
and most of those who have are now
perfectly well satisfied that the
Democrats would carry the State,
not expecting anything else.—since
the thing has been done—but a
sound drubbing. One of them in
fact, the Philadelphia Evening Bul
letin, actually comes to the consola
tory conclusion that “the victory will
not advance the interests of the
party in ’the North,” but, on the,
contrary, will “rather damage the
cause And yet they
are not happy, for most of them are
going resolutely to work to explain
the causes of the Radical defeat, and
are wasting any amount of ink and
paper in trying to account for that
which was “universally anticipated”
and “generally expected.” In the
meantime it looks very much as if
there was a general “wiping out” of
Radicalism in the South. So little
of the party, indeed is left in Georgia
that it is now somewhat in the con
dition of the barrell that was order
ed from a shiftless cooper iu
Massachusetts. Being asked one
day how he was getting along, he
replied, “Finely,” and when pressed
by his interviewer to let him know
exactly how much of the article was
finished, colly answered, “A first
rate bung-hole.”
[From the New York Sun, Ind.]
Fifty thousand will do for Georgia
It is the verdict she enters up against
the administration of Governor, who
even in this corrupt epoch, stood
out from the common herd of vil
lains in office as a conspicous char
acter.
What will Pennsylvatia now say
to Georgia? The State which
Oglethorpe founded has set the
brand of infamy upon an adminis
tration that -thrived on* robbery.—
What shall be the response of the
old commonwealth which Penn
founded. Will she take to her
bosom next Tuesday as her Gover
nor a man who has been compelled
to go into the penitentairy to pur
chase from one of its iumates a
certificate of good character?
[From the New York Herald, Ind.
It is evident that the effect of
last Wednesday’s work will solidify
the Greeley party throughout the
entire South. It will induce the
the faint hearted or the indifferent
to come into the campaign with
greater certainty that their labors
will not be thrown away. It will
animate the spirits of the contestants
on that side in the three great Mid
dle States, and vivify once more the
energies of those who will have to
wait until the first Tuesday in No
vember before taking part in the
war on the administration.
[From the W ashington Patriot Dem.
Os course, we expected to carry
this State by so decided a majority
as would preclude any hopes of our
opponets next month. But the
most sanguine did not anticipate
such a verdict as has been just ren
dered. The people seemed to have
appreciated the importance of
expressing their convictions at the
polls, and they turned out as men
out to do, who have a patriotic duty
to perform. The canvass was con
ducted without demonstrative ex
hibition, and this quiet led us to
suppose that the vote would fall
short of the real strength.
A Grant Meeting Captured by
Liberals-
Scranton, September 30.—The
Grant Republicans brought together
to-night, from New York and else
where, about 2,000 torches in pro
session, and had at the' Tannery
some very tame speeches, consisting
of discussions on dead issues and
vile abuse. During the song of a
glee club on the stage, the astound
ing fact was brought out that the
large audience was almost entirely
for Greeley, Brown, and Buckalew,
some one cried out, “Greeley men
sit down in front,” when down drop
ped the vast audience as one mass,
leaving hardly a corporals guard
standing, after which cheers went
up for Greeley, Buckalew, Curtin,
and other Liberal Republican and
Democratic leaders.— N. Y. Tribune ,
Impudence.
For pure unadulterated first-class impu
dence and meanness, the Grant party is a
success. They are flooding the country
with documents to prove how many mean
hard things Greeley has said about the
South. We care very little what he has
said. He says he is our friend now he
is honest—we believe him. We do know
that Grant has been a vile oppressor of
the South* and we want none of him.
And if his menials are to be believed his
present and past acts of tyranny towards
us. will not be c’i: ged sl.ould he be again
elected.
Besides, men vt-v, rite their histories.
The Grant of to-day. Is he the Grant of
the past? No 1 Then, a staunch consist
ent Democrat. To-day, the most Radical
of all Radicals, the truckling tool, the me
nial slave, of the most corrupt party that
ever robbed a country.
Then if Grant could change from what
he was, to what he is. How can it be im
possible for Greeley to turn his back upon
him and the rotten crew that have fastened
barnacle like upon the good ship of state,
wid consorting w ith those who love good
government, and an honest administration
of it, lend himself and all his energies to
restore the government of our fathers.
G.
Financial Effect of Greeley’s
Election.
The New York Herald gives the sub
stance of a conversation with A. T. Stew
art in reference to the effect of Greeley's
election upon the financial interests of the
country. Mr. Stewart’s opinion of Bout
well's policy was asked. He replied:
Can you tell me what are the views of
Mr. Boutwell ? I never could learn that
be had any special view sor policy. I sup
posed his course was controlled by his judg
ment of existing circumstances. As far as
bis policy consists in purchasing at a large
premium Government bonds, not yet due*
I think the sooner that is terminated the
better for the country, and the sooner it is
understood that the Government intends
entering upon a policy, which at some fu
ture time, no matter how remote, will lead
to the resumption of specie payment, the
better it will be for everybody. Continu
ing tlie course that has been pursued the
last four years will never lead us to specie
payment, but leave every merchant at the
mercy of gold gamblers.
Reporter : Then you have no fear that
the election of Mr. Greeley will produce
any financial difficulty.
Mr. Stewart: None whatever.
Reporter: What do you think of his
present views on the tariff question?
Would they not, if carried out by a change
of tariff, lead to some confusion with
merchants ?
Mr. Stewart: Not at all. On the con
trary, 1 think Mr. Greeley leaves that
question where it always should be left,
with the people through their members of
congress, uncontrolled by party dictation
I have always contended that the tariff
laws to which our country looks for its
revenue, should bie decided wholly by rules
of equity and justice so as to bear equally
in their application upon all interests and
all classes. Take off the party whip, al
low the members of Congress to consult
the general interests of their respective
constituents in framing the tariff law, and
I believe we would find every interest
much better served than it now is.
The New York kforld of F.tiday
last, has this to say of our election :
What has been done in Georgia will
decide the movement of the entire South.
From ihis day forth the Radicals may as
well understand that no Southern State i?
to be counted upon by them in the strug
gle for the Presidency, save, perchance,
South Carolina and Mississippi. In those
States their carpet-bag agents possess the
advantage of such a control of the igno
rant negro population that it will doubt
less be difficult to prevent them from steal
ing the electoral vote of commonwealths
the treasuries of which it has been found
impossible lo jirevent them from plunder
ing. But if we concede thus much to the
force of tyranny and corruption in South
Carolina and Mississippi, there yet remain
as assured to the Liberal and Democratic
tickets by the splendid result of Wednes
day's voting in Georgia the following
States with their electtoral votes:
Maryland 8 Alabama 10
W est V irginia 5 Louisiana 8
Virginia 11 Texas 8
North Carolina. ..11 Arkansas 6
Georgia 11 Tennessee 11
Florida 4 Kentucky 12
Total 105
If to these we add the votes which may
,be regarded as practicahy certain to be
cast for Greeley and Brown of the follow
ing States:
New York 35 J Delaware 3
Missouri 15 ( New Sersey 9
making m the sum sixty-two votes—we
shall have a total of 167 votes which from
this day forth must be conceded by all
candid and competent political calculators
as secured to the support of the cause of
reform. To a Presidential choice there
are now required 184 votes, leaving but 17
votes as necessary to be won by the Liber
als and the Democrats A Democratic
victory in Pennsylvania will give us these
17 votes and 12 to spare, the electoral
votes of Pennsylvania treing now 29 in
number. A Democratic victory in Ohio
would give us victory with 5 votes to spare.
A Democratic victory in Indiana and Oon
netriut would give as a victory with 4
votes to spare. A Democratic victory in
Pennsylvania and Ohio, in Ohio and Indi
ana, or in Pennsylvania and Indiana would
simply put. General Grant out of the can
vass for all practical purposes. Well, then,
we repeat, may the party of fraud and ol
hatred tremble at the thunder-tones in
which Georgia has just announced the
solid advance of the great column of the
regenerated Southern States to the deci
cive field of Well may the Dem
ocrats and the Liberals of the Middle
States and of the West catch new courage
and fresh inspiration from the exhilarating
sound. The victory of Wednesday in
Georgia will not only make victory more
easy next week in Pennsylvania and in the
great W est; it assumes in advance the
most glorious fruits for which we have
hoped and labored in preparing there the
victory of our principles and of our policy.
