FOR THE LEGISLATURE
S. Candler.
We place at the head of our j
columns to-day, the name of the lion.
C. Candler to represent this county
in the lower branch of the next Legis
lature. As will be seen by the pro
ceedings ot the County Convention,
wlflWl’Taet here on last Tuesday, and
Winch we publish elsewhere, Col.
Candler is the regular nominee of the
Democratic party, and as such will be
supported by every true Democrat.
The action of the Convention was
tloi as harmonious altogether as could
have been desired, but taking it for
granted that all’s well that ends wOll,
■vve hope and believe that Col. C., will
receive the unanimous suppoit ot thd
entire Democracy of the county. To
his support, and also the entire ticket
for county officers nominafbd by the
Convention, stands pledged every
Democrat, who believes in party or
ganization. The action of the Con
vention was untrammelled. it\vas regu
was conducted fairly and square
ly, there was nothing to which any
Democrat could object, and we re
peat-that we believe that every Dem
ooi’Jt will give the -entire ticket his
support.
Os Col. Candler and the gentlemen
composing the ticket for County of
i&Sitf;- we deem it unnecGessary to
speak. Our citizens know them well.
They are all worthy and meritorious
gentlemen. To them personally theie
Can be no objection, and as they stand
forth as the legitimate nominees of
the party, for the life of us, we cannot
nee, why there should be any dissalis
faction.
The Republican party in this conn.
*ry-arc active and zealous. They will
make*every effort in the coming elec
tion to gain th e ascendancy.—
Thev are working like Tro : ansfor ihe
accomplishment, at . this juncture, of
what they have been attempting for
years, viz ; the Jladi'.alizing of Car
roll county. Will Democrats under
these circumstances remain inactive ?
Will they like petted children, who
cannot have everything exactly as
they wish ? We hope not, and that
they will act like sensible men. If
the Democratic party in this county is
beaten in the coming contest, it will
own fault, and all we have got
ro say is, that in such a contingency,
if this county should share a similar
fate to those States and counties,
Winch have been manipulated by the ;
•Radicals in the past few years, we do
’not think that any Democrat has a
>ight to complain.

The ■“Atlanta Slin ’ oi the 28th ult.,
contains an exceedingly interesting
article—an account ot a jubilo lauda
tory meeting ot legislators. It seems to
have bee ti a sort ot convivial and ego
met-eongratulatory or laus mihi affair,
and the Sun’s report lias, doubtless,
caused more pleasure, in its various
shades and degrees, than any other
article which hrA ever appeared in the
columns of that valuable journal. Let us
consider some of the classes rendered
happy by the Sun of that date.
1. The actors themselves—with
what complacency and inward satis
faction they must have read the ac
count of their last night’s (s)pr-oceed
ings. Happily oblivious of
! ‘‘Let another man praise thee and'not
; thine own mouth," they swelled with
, pride over the truth contained in these
lines, though they, doubtless, did not
recall them,
‘■'Tis pleasant sureTh’see one’s* name in print:
A speech’s a -peech, although 1 !!' tee's nothing in’t."
i 2. The reporter —how he must have
! chuckled at seeing the gusto with
which the actors enjoyed iiis feast and
congratulated himself upon lat/iay it
on so thick and yet not thick enough
to produce nausea.
3: Those readers who, fully per
suaded that all they sec in print hr
true as gospel, uttered many a hearty
and pious “ Praise the Lord ! " for this
liberal gift of great men to the State j
of Georgia ! • 1
4. Temperance men aim A^ethodists
—-who were glad to learn that one j
•man, “from the hill county, had the \
moral courage to resist the tempta
tion of the wine cup , and who hope
that he has not been followed by any 1
of that real pain, about the temples
or the heart, which may since have
haunted others.
5. That large class who indulged in
a hearty ha ! ha.’! Fa! VI he happy
laugh and grow-tats ! Devoid of Care
and anxiety, they take the world as
it comes, and laugh at it’s tragedies
as well as its comedies Its a pleas
ure to minister to their happiness, to
see them open their ponderous jaws
and roar out astentorian haw ! haw! !
HAW!!! The writer knows some
men who, he believes,- can laugh all j
over a square mile. There is nothing :
stinging in their laugh. It is so ge
nial, so joyous, so full cf gooct* fellow
ship, so free from all venom, so'i¥V:i*t‘h'-;
provoking, that the laughed-ats can j
not long hesitate to join hr the good
natured roar. Vho ever spent five
minutes with “Happy Jim without
having his own hicc wreathed in
smiles, or his own mouth stretched
from “ear to car V
6. That Atlantian Anak who origi
nated the comedy. Towering, head
and shoulders, above the crowd, with
his genial f:*ce beami wg benignantly
on all around him, who that knows
him cannot imagine, as “the fun grew
fast and furious," seeing his sides
shaking with suppressed laughter ?
7. But there is another Gass who,
i doubtless, enjoyed-the opportunity to
j let off a little Ink 1 . “Mutual ftdmira
tion society," they can be heard sneer
fngly say; “in vino veritasj great fel
lows in their own estimation; better
| wait till they hear what their constit
; uents say about them; wonder how
| they stood on the lease—how they vo
ted on that South Georgia k Alabama
Rail Road, or the bill to fritter away
the land scrip proceeds; tine tiling
to be prosecutor, judge and jury in
their ow** ease, and to publish the
pleadings, charge and verdict to the
world; smell a rat there; etc.”
8. Finally there arc those whose
chief happiness consists' be enjoying
the bliss of others. They cab iaudate
with (1). cachinnate with (2), iG grate
ful with (3), rejoice with (4), lth ! ha !
with (5) laugh inwardly with (6),
and even enjoy the sneers of U),-
Brethren—let’s laugh. Its good

The New York Herald sounds a
clarion note of warning against the
efforts now being made by Boutwell,
Garrison, "Wendell Phillips and-others,
to bring about a ceaseless enmity be
tween the white and black races, and
thinks these are undertaken with a
view of precipitating a revolution at
the South in the event, of Air. Gree
ley's election. Jt would rerTg
that the teachings of the Radicals
contemplated such an eventuality,
since the impression they are creating
among the ignorant and misguided is,
that a Liberal success would insure the
re enslavement of the black race is so
absurd that it would hardly be used
for any other object. A\ r e are glad
that this subject is attracting atten
tion at the North, as it will go far to
clear away rffany prejudices, and to
re-estabfeh Southern people in the
proper estimation of their brethren at
the North. —Savannah News.

Macon, 6a., August. 26, 1872.
To the Democratic Dart;/ o f da :
In compliance with a r&soFrfi-bif’ol the
State Executive Committee 1 purpose
addressing you, briefly, upon tli2 per
ils of the times mid the duties of the’
hour. \Ye are engaged in a great
contest, one in which every person
who loves Constitutional Government,
who desires a return to the old land,
marks of the fathers, who is weary of
-enforcement arts, and bayonet rule, of
the subordination of the civil Govern,
ment, of the suspension of the writ of
habeas corpus, of the concentration of
power in the Federal Executive, who
prefers local self-government to the
arbitrary rule of party and power, who
would quiet sectional wrangling and
animosities, who prefers peace to strife
union to discord, country to party,
must evidence bis faith by bis works.
It is a contest between the friends of
true government and the open ene
mies of Constitutional law and liberty.
It is a contest, >yhieh as it widens and
spreads, will shake party organization
to their - foundations, - because it is a
contest of the people independent of
party associations or requirements.
It is a contest for which the true men
of the North and the South, the East
and the AYest are preparing, by for
getting' the bitter memories of the past?
the effete issues of old organizations
and in the spirit of a noble brotherhood
and a patriotic liberality, are combin
ing to save the Government irorn
overthrow and the people from the ty
rannies of a centralized despotism.
It is a contest which promises pc>ce
to the nation, personal liberty to .he
people, equal rights to the States, good
government to all. In this conies?!
! we must act our part, we cannot b*
camp followers, when liberty is at
stake and the country is in peril.—
Every hope of success depends upon
the efforts of those engaged in the
struggle. In Georgia, the turning
I point of the conflict depends upon our
ability to bAiig all our forces into the
field. To effect a result so desirable
there must be a thorough and complete
organization in every county in the
Skrte. Our eleGbrs should visit the
people and urge them to action and
; to duty, and they will nobly respond,
for Georgians have never proved re
creant to a trust, or false to duty.—
Upon our sub electors, most valuable
aids and s adjuncts, much,- very much
depends. To them tlie Executive
Committee is hopefully looking-for in
| valuable assistance in county organi
zations. Let each one feel the indi
vidual responsibility of the trust re
nosed-ill him, and we shall have acam
paign in Georgia} faithful in-its labors
and glorious in its victories. Our
Government must be maintained, for
it is the sheet anchor of our hopes.
In preserving this we will be the bet
ter able to secure a triumph in No.
vember following, lor our electorial
ticket in Georgia. There is apathy
in ou# party —it must be removed,
and the people aroused and awakened
to the sense of their danger. There
is division’ itveutr ranks, let us heal it
by kind reniutlfetTanecs and ccvwteoßs
apptkls'tc/the patriotism 1 and magna' ;
nictity of “hesitating Democrats.”
The party has spoken through its
recognized organs, (State and Nation j
al Conventions) and expects every man
to do his duty and except its action as
a proof of its fidelity to- the best
interest- ot the country. Personal ;
prejudices should now yield to the
overwhelming will of the majority ;
privateYe-grefr. and individual prefer
ences should be dropped, and the old
party,-proud of its record in the past
of its*devotion do Constitutional Gov
ernment, of its sacred* maintenance ot
the rights of the States, of its holy rc
gard for the personal liberties of the
people, should, as a unit, lock shields
with the patriotic men of any party
who wiH unite with it in the mainten
aace of principles so essential to good
government, without parleying as to
whom their banner is entrusted, or
who will lead their forces to victory.
It is now time for concert of action’
amorg all true men’. AA e are now at
sea; the elements are stirred 1 ; we hear
the wait df the tempest, the roar of
the thunder, the rushing of the waters;
this is no time for division among the
seamen, or mutiny in the crew, be
cause our captain is taken from anotlr
cr craft; let each man to bis duty and
his post at the pump, the engine of
the sail, and follow him as he follows
his chart and compass, and we will
weather the storm and anchor at last
in the port of safety.
Democrats, Liberal Republicans
zealous co-laborers in this work of re
conciliation and reform, let us go
more actively to our labors; let the j
slogan of our Combined forces be
heard in every valley and upon every
bill top; let our battle cry, “fraternity,
reform and 4 onstitutiomd Govern
ment,” cease nos, until, Iff November
next, it will be lost m th* shouts of a
victorious host proclaiming to the
down-trodden South universal amnes
ty, good will, local self government,
and to the Whole nation peace, restor
ation, union.

Wo leani that on tho arrival of the
train last Saturday night from Atlan

repaired to the depot to meet the
Hon. W. F. Wright who was expect
ed as a pas>cngo." When this gen
tieman left the train he was met by
these citizens with a cordiality which
evinced the high estimation in which
Ire. is regarded as a citizen and their
appreciation ot Ids eminent stUbhres
while on the bench of this circuit.—
Quite a number we learn expressed*
disapprobation of the act by which
'he was superseded officially, and some
went so. far as to declare in plain
terms that they would not support
Governor Smith in the approaching
election. Proceeding to the public
square the crowd from the depot met
another assemblage of our citizens
who were equally cordial in their
greetings of the Kbnorable gentleman
and equally plain in thtdr expressions
ot regret and disap probation that one
who had so ably and faithfully served
as a Jurist should be thus superseded
—We are informed that a silence
seemed to ensue by common consent
as if to hear’ something from Judge
AY right—whereupon the following la
conic but noble and magnanimous re
sponse illustrated-the character of the
man—
“ Gentleman T am a democrat—firm
and unshaken in my principles'—-I say
—Hurrah for Smith.”
Such men' as Judge Wlight are
O V.
most valuable to their country—They
are above temptation, honest, zealous
and faithful. They rebuke most se
verely the eoifd'ict of those who allow
1 self interest to actuate them' insthid of
I .
the nobler, purer influence of genuine
patriotism. Would that' we hrrd more
of such men—for in their hands truth
right and liberty would be secure.—

CaYOujon. G.\., Aug. 2Glh. 1872.
| Editor Herald : The time is fast np.
proacliing when the people oft 1 ieFourlh
Congressrbnal 1 /'strict must select a
man to represent them in Congress.
Several names have been announced
as candidates for the nomination*
and 1 beg-leave to ask that the name
of Major John At. Richardson be duly
considered bv the people of tins Dis
i . *
13 let.
Maj. Richardson is endowed with
many noble qualities. He is a soldier,
a scholar, a Christian gentleman and
patriot in polities, a States Rights
Democrat, who had rather be found in
| the ranks of minority contending for
principles than scrambling with the
i majority for spoils.
Maj R. is neither i» politician nor ah
office-seeker, but if nominated, there
will spring to his support a longer list j
of warm friends and former students
all over the District than, it is proba- i
ble, any other man within it limits
could rallv.
- •
A point deserving seriour consider
alien is this: The white population
of the District exceeds the black
by only about 50'J voters. How inr
per tan t it is, then, that the Democrats
nominate a man whose personal char
actor is such that it will bring out the
entire strength of the party. It is
believed that Maj. K. can do so, such
is the estimation in which he is held
in his-own -county that lie can, doubt
less- get a vote largely in excess of his
own party strength.
His nomination will be a compliment 1
to the county of Carroll, a compliment
well deserved for past services ; it will
be an appeal, too, to a noble county .
pride, and one which will meet with
hearty response by all, irrespective of
party associations.
It elected, the people will find that
they have chosen a pious, temper
ate, educated, Christian, gentleman,
and they w ill have a mild, yet firm,
able and watchful Representative,
whom neither power nor place can
tempt from the path of rectitude.

Parton's Life of Greeley.
One of the most interesting and val
! liable ot American biograpliios, is the
"Life of Horace'Greeley,” by Janies
Parton. Tlie life of Air. Greeley lias
been closely interwoven with what has
been most commanding in American
Affairs for more than a third of a
century. Indeed, tills story ol his
j life gives the reader by no means an
inadequate glimpse of American his
lory for the past thirty years. .It is
the stc*y of a life that commenced in ’
I the greatest obscurity , and lias grown
| into the greatest eminence. It has
! been a busy life, the busiest, proba’ V
in the land, crowded with events, full
j ot brave words and generous deeds
| and marked by peculiarities ; greater !
I and characteristics stronger than, per.
haps those of any other American
j citizen.
The subject, therefore, w uM com
in:md respectful and eager attention,
though handled by an unskillful pen.
But Air. Parton is a master. lie has
] ong been well and widely known in
our literature. He is a keen and bril
liant esayist ; and incisive and spark
ling writer ot English, and a carefuj
and exhaustive searcher after facts.—
He docs not touch a pen to paper in
the composition of a book, till the en
tire field of investigation has been ex
plored, and everything directly or in
directly bearing on his theme tiior
ouhgly digested.
Li ixeparing -this work, he spent sev
eral months At visiting the town where
Air. Greeley was born and the vari
ous places where he subsequently
lived, collecting all the information
ah but bis early life that it was possible
to obTun. It is not, therefore a hasti
ly or illy contrived book, labeled “Life
of Greeley,” but a work which will
always be the authoritative record of
the three-score years of’ Air. Greelei
life that have already passed into his
tory- It would be a valuable adition
to any library at any time, but, just
now its oportuneness gives it added
interest.
It is elegantly bound, well illust’rat
cd ; and in consideration of the great
popular demand for the work it is sold
for a little more than half the ruling
book prices.
It is published by the National Pub
lishing Cos., of Atlanta, who wants
agents in every County.
