The Carroll County Times. CARROLLTON, GA. July 19,1872. - ■ EDWIN R. SHARPE, Editor. FOR PRESIDENT. HORACE GEELEY. FOR VICE PRESIDENT. B. GRATZ BROWN. rmr—rmn imti ii i ym>— ■ mi- rfiwiiii i mm\ mi Greeley and Brown. The National Democratic Conven tion which met in Baltimore on the 9th inst. has performed its work, and Horace Geeley and B. Gratz Brown stand before tlie country as the Dem ocratic nominees for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. In the lan j'uage ot the Savannah Advertiser, “ we place their names at the head of our columns, with the hope that their support throughout the South will be earnest and* universal. As against Grant there is but C7ic choice for us, and we must accept it cheerfully and with an abiding faith in the future. We believe that the Philosopher, un less he be at heart false and deceitful, and his record does not prove that lie is, will abide by his promises made eincchis nomination, and when elected, as lie is sure to be, will fulfill them courageously and honestly. Ilis re cord as a partisan editor is tire worst objection that can be raised against him, but partisanship is ephemeral, and the war which provoked its bit terness is a tiling of the past. Tire issues of the present day are peace iul ones, and as the soldiers of the South and North have shaken hands, so let the Democracy of the South and the Liberal Republicans join in the combined crusade against executive corruption and tyranny, with a de termination to crush it at the polls in November. As for the political iricconcila Ides, who can see nothing but disas ter in the Democratic nomination of Greeley, the -coming months, we pro diet, will find them in the ranks, willing workers against Grant and his legion of office-holders and politi cians. They cannot with honor to themseives aid Grant by a sullen in dilference, nor do we see how they can stand idle while the best and truest men oi the South are stnu--- gling in behalf of what they deem to bo the wisest alternative under the trying circumstaces of the hour.” Baltimore Convention, As the most of our readers are ftyvare by Ibis time, the Democratic Convention .at Baltimore, with great enthusiasm, adopted the Cincinnati platform on the 10th inst., by a vote of 062 yeas, to 70 nays. Beiming. Gray and Spalding of Georgia voted yea. The others nay. On the same day the ballot for candidate for Presi dent, resulted in 686 votes for Greeley; 15 for Bayard ; 11 for Black ; and 2 for Groesbeck. B. Gratz Brown was nominated for Vice President, receiv ing ,?3 votes. The nomination of Greeley and Brown was afterwards made unanimous. The Georgia delegation excepting Black, Pucker, Potter and Candler* voted for Greeley on first ballot. The entire delegation will support the' nomination. •»—— Horace Greeley has no doubt !'uid many hard things against the South, in the heat and passion of days that are past, and most of these ob jectionable sentiments, have been ■well ventilated by red hot Democrats and Grant Republicans, the latter having discovered lately, since Ife has nhowii no mercy to scalawags and car petbaggers, that he is a very bad man One of the most objectionable of all those sentiments attributed to him, mas the anathema against the South ern people, said to have been pronounced about the commencement of the war. This anathema is in these words : “When the rebellious traitors are overwhelmed in the field, and, scattered like leaves before an angry v\ind, it must not be to return to peaceful and contented homes. They must find poverty at their firesides, and see privation in the eyes of mothers and rags of children.” This curse has been extensively copied, by certain Democratic papers as coming from the New York Tribune of a cer tain date, and Harpers Weekly, a Grant organ, has gone so far as to make it the subject of a caricature.— But notwithstanding the buncombe that has been made out of it, it now tin us out that the whole thing is a fabrication. The New York Tribune ot last week says, in noticing the cari cature of Harper’s Weekly: “We deem k only necessary to say that not a word of this pretended extract, is found in the Tribune of that date, and no such words were ever written by Mr Greeley. We leave the pub m* to judge of the moral quality of iXai J >ci's’' CO,n,ilitted hy thc Messre - Reply to “Union Republican ” Trr otu issue of to day will he fourrd another communication from the pen ot “Union Republican, on the finan cial policy of President Grant’s admin istration. In these days of Radical misrule and mismanagement the terms Jman cier and “financial policy ' have got to be of very doubtful signification. In the honest days of the Republic, it used to bo said, if an officer husbanded well the finances and resourc cs of the country, and honestly paid its economi cal expenditure, that he was a good fi nancier and his financial policy was such as the people w ere pleased with. But now if a man goes into cifice and steals the finances and resources of the coun - try and enriches himself and his Iriepds he is called a great financier and “his financial policy such a one as Jus friends may justly be proud of.”— In other words a great financier, according to Radical mean in g is a great stealer, and financial poli cy, the stealing policy. It lias not been long, as we very well recollect, since “Union Republican” was as loud and noisy, publicly and privately, in his praises and laudations* of Gov. Bullock’s administration —-as he is now of General Giants.— Bullock was his h-e-a-u idea l of a perfect man and Governor, accor ding to Union Republicans, printed* address. Bullock enriched himself and friends out of the taxes produced by the hard working people of the country, bankrupted the State and then rim away. ** Yet “Union Republican,’ publicly and privatetly, every where approved of and lauded Gov. Bullock’s adminis tration, as one ot which he “was just ly proud.” Was he ignorant of what Gov. Bullock had done. Ife was liis intimate friend, confident, adorer and counsellor for two years. It iie was ignorant and imposed on, why does lie not come out honestly and make acknowledgements to the people.— They require it, or the spot must re main indelliblc. Well what does “Union Republi can” know about Gen. Grant’s admin istration and his “financial policy.” If iie was mistaken in Gov. Bullock af ter being-closeted with him for years, is it not more probable that he vis-mis taken in Grant whom lie never saw, and from whom he is distant a thous and miles. lie must surely make as sertions from the supposition, that whatever a Radical does is right.— Well, if he does he has the proof at hand, instance Bullock, Blodget etc. “Union Republican” says “that in three years and three months of Uresi dent Grants administration the public debt has been reduced three hundred and thirty two millions. This is very unsatisfactory. Why doe's lie not tell us how much money has been 'collect ed in this term ? and then how much has been paid on the public debt, that we might see whether the money has been faithfully and economically ap propriated ? No. Not a word of it Avery able and distinguished states man is now engaged in making this estimate and 11 ic correct amount is not known, as Gen. Grant lias failed to furnish it, but the amount as suppos ed that lias come into the hands of the government in this three years and three months, is three thousand mil lions. Os this startling amount only three hundred millions, in round num bers, has been paid on the public debt, J hat is for every ten dollars that President Grant has collected, he has paid one only on the public debt.—- V» here after defraying the expendi tures of the government has gone the ballance of three thousand millions.— It has been stolen in this public ser_ vice. Peculation has been winked at, and reform in the Federal admin istration has been refused, until the pockets of the revenue collectors, pay masters, and pension agents have been filled to overflowing. This is thej-c cord of Gen. Grant of which Union Republican “is justly proud,” and only because it is a Radical record. He intimates that the Democratic party was for repudiating the public debt. When? Where?. Was ever an motion so groundless ? We know of no repudiators but thc Radicals. 1 hey forced the Southern States to repudiate the debts- of the war —and by legislation have repudiated all the old debts contracted before Juuc 1365 thereby robbing the honest citizens of millions of their hard earnings, and now seek to repudiate the constitu tional government of our fathers, and on its ruins to rear up a military des potism. Grant's administration says “ Gmofl Republican,’' has restored the country to peace and prosperity hith erto unknown. We, without- the fear of contradiction, assert that the only fixed policy it has had, has been to oppress and tyrauhe the Southern it has been blind to every thing else. If fl-e suspension of the habeas corpus, and the arrest and con finement of our citizens, without war rant, in close prisons by the scores, is what Ihi ion Republican calls peace, we have had enough of such kind of peace. If bayonets around the ballot box is peace, we want no more of such peace. It it is peace to send our people off and coniine them in North ern prisons, deliver us from such peace. This is the peace that Grant has given us during his administration and may God soon deliver us from him and his peace. The prosperity that he has broght upon the country, is like his peace, truly a sickly pros perity. We have never witnessed any of it in our travels, unless among* those, who, like “Union Republican,’ have had a share in the-public cub, — Tt is a sickly prosperity that drives its citizens to buy their supplies on a give a lien on the entire crop, and at the end of the year not make enough to discharge the lien. Away with such unquiet peace, and such sickly posterity. Give us again the pence and prosperity of the consti tutional Government that was given to us by Washington and our fathers, as administered by Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson and Polk. To restore this Government with, its wonted peace and prosperity, the good and the patriotic’ every where have united, and for this cause only, Dem ocrats and Liberal Republicans v/ork shoulder to shoulder. Democratic Meeting, /A meeting of the Democrats oi Carroll com ay was held at the Court House on Saturday the 13th. Upon motion of M. R. Russell, W. O. Rob inson was called to the chair, and J. Y. Bialoek requested to act as score tary. The Chair called upon ivfaj. Thomasson to explain the business of the meeting, which ho briefly did, and then introduced the following resolutions : Resolved, That the Democrat ic par ty of Carroll county heartily approve of the administration of our present chief executive Gov. James Smith.— We believe him to be holiest, capable and patriotic. Resolved , That Oscar Reese, It. L. Richards and George Sharp and G. A. Bonner be appointed delegates to the Atlanta Convention on the 24th inst., for the nomination of Governor and electors for President. Resolved , That said delegates be instructed to cast their votes as a unit for Gov. James hi. Smith, and in tin event they cannot succeed in hisnomi nation, then to vote for either Gener al Alfred 11. Colquitt, Judge David Irvin, Col. Thomas Hardeman, Gen. John B. Gordon or CYL Goo* ge N. Lcs ter. Resolved, That the proceedings of this Meeting be published in the Carroll County Turns and the At lanta Constitution. After the reading of 1 lie above res obit ions J. L. Cobb E;q., moved to strike out* the 3rd resolution, in order that delegates might go imCrammeled. liis motion having been lost, the res olutions were put to vote and ad opt ted by tile house. Oscar Rose Esq. withdrew his name as a delegate, up on the grounds that three delegates from one district would be too much representation for one district and too little for the county.. G. A. Bonner Esq was selected in his stead, and J. M. Musty M. li. Russell, John S. Pen ticost and J. W. Adamson were selec ted alternates. Upon motion ti ic meet ii i g ad j ourn ed. W. D. Roiunsox, Chairman. J. Y. Blalock, Secretary. Live issues. If we go back to slavery issues wc might support Grant but not Greeley; but are not these issues dead ? Ir we* go back to the tear, wo could not support Grant, Greeley or Hancock, but is not the war over? If we go to the days of reconstruction we could not support Greeley, Grant or Han cock. Hancock being one of the , satraps, best one, we admit, but is not reconstruction over ? If wc pass over what is dead beyond the hope of resurrection, and come to live issues, to the supremacy of the civil over the military authorities, the sacredness of the writ of hcibeus corpus , the right of each State to manage its own affairs, pass its own laws, punish its own cit i/.ens before its own Judges and ju ries, select its own managers of elec lions, to the purity ami economy of the Federal government, we cannot sup port Grant, but can vote for Greeley if indorsed by the Baltimore Convention. In this g-eat crisis, why go back to the record of a candidate on slavery issues ? Why not be content to in quire how he stands on livingihsr.es? Whether be h for a Republic or an Empire, for the people or for an Aristocracy, for the rule of the soldier or the Sheriff and Judge and Jury. \ These are. questions, vital questions, and to solve them properly and satis factorily, we, for one, are willing to surrender the prejudices of earlier years, and forget the injuries of the j past. Let us have a government of law, and we appeal so patriots to save ; the living and those yet unborn from ; the rule of a military tyrant — Mac* 1 non Herald. Shout Collouqy.— An ex-rebel and ex slave owner met a town politician, who had made his boasts of having been a life-time Democrat, who never yet deserted the “ grand old par ty.” Life-time Democrat—“ And you say you are for Greeley ? Dont you know that lie is the man, who, more than any other man,, helped to free your negros ? ” Ex-slave Owner—“ Well I believe he did have considerable to do in freeing the negroes. Since he is so good at treeing folks, I want him to free me now. If you don’t want to be free, it’s none of my business.— Good morning.— Meridian Mercury, Cincinnati! Platform.

Social self-government with impartial suffrage will guard the rights of all citizens more securely than auy centralized r>ovv*r. Tin* people and the pnbiic welfare require th • supremacy of the civil ov< r the military authority, and freedom of person under the protection of the habeus corpus, fie demand far the individual the largest liberty,, con sistent with public order, for the State stlf-gor ernment, and for the nation a return to the ! meth ods of peace, and the constitutional limitations of power. 5. r i iie civil service of the Government has be come a mere instrument of party tyranny and per sonal ambition, and an object oi "selfish greed.— It is a scandal and leproaeh upon free institutions and breeds a demoralization dangerous to the per petuity of republican government 6. TVe therefore regard athoronirh reform of the most pressing necessities of the hour; that hones ty capacity and fidelity constitute the only valid claims to public employment; that the office of the Government cease to be a matter of arbitrary fav oritism and patronage, and that public s onion be come again a post of honor. To this end it is itn peratively required that no .President shall Lea candidate for re-election. ■" 1 He demand a system of Federal taxation which shall not unnececss.uiiy interfere with the industry ot the people, which shall provide the means necessary to pay the expenses of the Govern ment economically administered, the pensions, the interest on the pnbiic debt and a moderate alum I reduction on the principal thereof; and recogniz ing lilt there are in our midst, hon-est hut irrecon cilable differences of opinion with regard to the res pective systems of protection and IV--e trade, we remit the discu -si* t of the suhj- it to the-people in their Uoilgressionn! districts and the decision of Congress thereon, wholly free of Executive inter ference or dictation. 8.

We lemembi r with gratitude the heroism find sacrifices of the soldiers and sailors of the Ke public, [and no act of ours shall ever detract from their patriotism 1 1 . li'e are opposed to all further grants of lands to railroads or other corporations. The public do main should he held sacred to actual settlers. 12. Wo hold tbs tit is a duty es the government ii:it • intercom e ,*tii foreign nations tocaltivat the friendships of peace by treating with fair and equal terms, reg.trdii g italike dishonorable either to" demand what is not right or to submit to what is wrong. 13. For the protection and success of these vital prin iptos. at id the support of tiie candidate# nom inated by l his Convention, we invite and cordially welcome the co-operation cf all patriotic citizen's without regard to previous polit teal affiliations. Grant Republican lalform. < The Republican party of the United States assembled in National Convention in the city* |of Philadelphia, oh the sth and Gth days of June, 1872, and declares its faith, and ap peals to its history, again announces its posi tion on the questions before the conn try. 1. During eleven years of supremacy, it has accepted with giand courage, the solemn du ties of the times. It suppressed'a gigantic rebellion, emancipated 4.0U0,000 of slaves, de creed the equal citizenship of at I, and estab lished universal suffrage. Exhibiting anpar relled magnanimity, it criminally punished no man for political cla uses, and warmly welcomed, aid who proved their loyally by obeying the laws and dealing justly with their neighbors. It liar steadily decreased with firm ban l, the resultant disorders of «a great war, and initiated a wise and humane , ' y towards the Indians. The Pacific ; ..II road md sh.#.. r vast em■- uprises have been generally aided ands twees. fully conducted, tl«j public lands freely given to actual settlers immigration proujU'd an! encouraged, «n,I a full acknowledgment of the naturalized cit izens’ rights secured tret i fur »pean powers. A uniform National currency lias been pro vided, repudiation frowned down; the Nation al cr-rA ' 1 ru stained under most extaordinary burdei A and new bonds negotiated at lower rate; the revenus have be; u carefully collect ed and honestly apple <l. despite a.natal large reductions of the rate of taxation; the public debt has hue a reduced, owing Gen. drat it’s Presidency, at the rate of a hundred millions • a year; great litia-.icial crises have been avert ed, and ptaeo and p: -oft prevail throughout the land: menacing fore! at (Id Acuities have been ]km •..dully r.rrd honorably- and the lionor'and power o f the nation kept it. high respect thro it gout the world. • This glorio: ? record of the past is the par ty’s best, pi Ige of the future. We believe toe party wdi not. entrust the gou rmneiit to any, or combination of men, composed rhief ;ly of those who resisted every step of this .«beneflcitj in ogress. Com; dote liberty ?.:ul exact equality, in the, engoyment of all civil, political and pub lic rights should he e,stabilised and effectual ly maintaned throughout the Union, by < di luent and appropriate State and Federal leg islation, Neither the law nor its administra tion should animate any discrimina tion in respect to citizens, by reason of race, Creed, color or previous condition of servitude 3. The recent amendments to the yonstitu- V.on should be cordially sustained, because tehy are right, and not merely tolerated be cause they are law, and should be carried out according, to their spirit by appropriate legis- Jation, the enforcement of which can safely be entrusted only to ihe party that secured those amendments. 4- The hational go Vermont shonl 1 seek to maintain an honorable peace with all nations, protecting its citizens everywhere, and sym pathizing with all people v. ho strive for groat er liberty. 5. Any system of civil service, under which the subordinate positions of the Government are considered rewards fur mere party zeal, is fatally demoralizing, and we therefore, fa vor a reform of the system, by laws which shall abolish the evils of patronage, and make honesty, efficiency and fidelity, the essential qualifications for public p isition. C. Yfe are opposed to further grants of pub lic lata’s to corporations and nxonopilies, and demand that the national domain he set apart for free homes for the people. 7. Wo hold in undying honor the -soldiers and sailors, whose valor saved the Union. Their pensions are a sacked debt of the nation and the widows and orphans of those who died for their country, are entitled to the care of ait additional legislation, and will ex tend the bounty .of the government to all our soldiers sailors who were honorably discharg e.l, and who-, in the time of duty, became disabled, without regard to the length of ser vice or the cause of such discharge. 8- The doctrine of Great liritain and eth er European powers concerning allegiance, that once a subject always a subject, having at. last through the efforts of (lie Republican ■party been abandoned, and the Aemrieanidea of tlie individual's i igU.Uto transfer allegiance having been accept! .1 by European' nation--, it is the duty of our government to guard with jealous care the rights of adopt ed citizens, against the assumption of unau thorized claims, by their former governments, and we urge continual careful encourage ment and protection of voluntary immigration 9. The franking privilege ought to be abolisln .J and the way prepared fur a speedy reduction in fife rale of postage. 10. Among the questions which press for .attention is that wliigh concerns the relations of capital atW labor, and the Republican par ty recognize the duty of so shaping legisla ting as to secure full protection and tjie am plest field for labor—the creator of all cap ital—the largest opportunities, and a just share ot the mutual profits of these two great servants of civilization. 11. We bold that Congress and toe Pres ident have only performed an imperative du ty, in their measures for the suppression of violent and treasonable organizations, in cer tain lately rebellious regions, and for the prodection of the ballot box, and that there fore, tlicy are entitled to thc thanks of the nation. 12. We denounce repudiation of the pub lie debt, in any form or di-cmise, as a nation al crime. We witness with pride the reduc tion of the principal of the debt, and jthe rates of inkiest upon the balance, and conti dently expect that our excellent national cur rency will be perfected by a speedy resump of specie payments. 13. Thc Republican party is mindful of its obligations to the loyal women of ca, for their noble devotion to the cause of freedom. Their admission into wider fields of usefulness, is viewed with satisfaction, and *he honest demat’ns of any class of persons, [Gr additional rights should be treated with respectful consideration. . \ 14. We heartily approve the action of Con gross in extending urnnesfy.to those lately in rebellion, and fraternal feeling throughout the laud. 15. The Republican party propose to re speet the righkq reserved by the people to themselves, as carefully as the powers delega ted by them to tlie State. IC. It is the General Government to adopt such means ns will tend to encourage Amer ican commerce and ship building. 17. We believe that the modest patriotism, the earnest purpose, tie; sound judgement, the practical wisdom, the incorruptibl integ rity and the illustrious services of Ulysses S. Grant have commended him to the hearts of the American people, and with him at car head, we start today upon anew march to victory. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
