ADDRESS OF THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC
•COMMITTEE TO THE PEOFI.E OF THE
UNITED STATES.
The October elections are over.—
They enable us to form a tolerable ac
curate idea of the true political situa
tion of the country.
In Georgia we have to recount a
victory for the Liberal ticket so unex
ampled as to take her out of the list of
doubtful States, and practically to
pronounce in advance the decision of
at least 125 votes in the Electoral
•College. To this number it is only
necessary to add sixty votes to elect
Greeley and Brown.
In Pennsylvania the distinguished
Chairman of the Liberal Committee
has eloquently characterized the meth
ods by which the result of the elec
tion there was accomplished. We
•commend nis statement to the
thoughtful attention of the counN
try.
Jii Ohio, despite most un precedents
■cd gains tor the Liberal Democratic
ticket, .the Grant managers have car
ried the election by a reduced majori
•tv, having brought to the polls their
entire reserve vote. Had our Demo
cratic friends in certain localities of
that great commonwealth shown the
same earnestness and activity, and
enabled us like our enemies to record
our entire strength, they would now
be exulting over a brilliant victory.
In Indiana the Democratic and Lib
eral forces have achieved a most im
portant success over Pennsylvania
tactics, most unscrupulously employed
by the Administration and its allies,
showing thus that a free people when
■aroused know their rights and dare
maintain them. Indiana lias fairly
•demonstrated that she can neither be
“‘bought nor bullied". The moral of
Jthese results is that victory is still in
plain view for our national ticket, and
that energy and courage will assure it.
That victory must be won. If we
menu to preserve free institutions on
this continent we must assure it.
The event in Pennsylvania, on
Tuesday last, 'When considered in its
causes, is the most appalling political
eatasthrophe that ha 9 ever taken place
in this country. Should the system
-through which this catastrophe was
brought atcut be tolerated by the
people and foisted on the other States,
it seals the doom of freedom in Amer
ica. A sad contrast it is surely that
Jibe city in which oar republic was
bora amid tho anthems of a free peo
ple should now bo the first to toll the
knell of its liberties. It is for the free
ombougbt people of all the States to
calmly review the fearful crime against
suffrage in Pennsylvania, and to de
cide whether it shall be repeated within
their own borders.
For the first time the system of free
government and *tl»e -sanctity of the
ballot are really on trial in the -United
States. From this hour forward the
•preservation of the franchise in Us in
tegrity dwarfs all other issues.
Let our friends in each of the States
catch inspiration from the heroic coo
duct of our fellow-citizens in Georgia
and in Indiana, aud from now till No
let the struggle be manful and
unceasing.for liberty ami an untainted
ballot-box, for 'Reform and an honest

No excitement politically. The Dem
ocratic Nominations for Mayor and
Aldermen comes off in the various
wards next Saturday, the 26th in

Candidates for Aldermenic honors
are too numerous to mention. The
friends of'the various candidates are
earnestly and persistently at work for
them, and We anticipate a lively time
on Saturday. Our city was startled
a few 1 evening since by the circulation
of a rumor to-the effect that a duel
had been fought in the city but alas !
the rumor proved too true. The facts
are briefly these, Mr. Wallace Hask
ell insulted a lady in the Episcopal
Bazaar appologized for the insult, the
appoligy was accepted by her escort
and at this juncture Mr. Houston
Force, come up and conducted the la
dy away. Next day Mr. H. T. Force,
while Haskell was passing, came out
of a store and struck Haskell repeated
ly with a stick—Haskell then sent a
challenge to Force by Mr. J. H.
Townsend. Force declined to receive
the challenge because he was unwil
ling to recognize Haskell as a gentle
man. Townsend promptly took
Haskells place and sent Force a chal
lenge by Mr. J. 11, Smith which Col.
John R, Hart, who was acting for
Force would not accept from Smith,
wliome he claims to have disgraced
some years ago.
Subsequently Towngend and Force
met and arranged the preliminaries for
a duel between themselves which was
fought, resulting in Mr. Townsend’s
receiving very dangerous wounds—
possibly fatal.
The weapons used “were double
barrelled shot-guns—eight buck-shot
in each barrel—distance 40 paces—
place on a public street near the cein
eiery in this city. The whole occur
ance Ims thrown gloom over the
friends of all parties and over our citi
zens generally. Cotton is coming in
rapidly. Trade brisk—
The scarcity of news must serve as
an excuse for the uninteresting char
acter of this communication as welj
as an apology for my failing to send
one last week.

Atlanta Oct, 21st 1872.
John Forsyth’s Rebuke to South,
ein Straights.
During the earlier stages of the
struggle which ended in the nomina
tion of Mr. Greeley at Baltimore, and
even for some time subsequent, there
was no sterner and more indexible
“Straight-out” Democrat than John
Forsyth, of Alabama, whose name has
been identified with Southern Dem
ocracy for two generations. Prevent
ed by bad health and undertaking an
active part in this campaign, be has
been writiug to his paper, the Mobile
Register, from his summer retreat in
Virginia, a series of letters, strongly
supporting the Liberal movement and
Horace Greeley, and in bis last we
find the following emphatic rebuke ot
those of liis former comrades who (to
use his own language) are “wasting
their manhood and dwarfing their
souls, with beating the air with idle
words, under an impos-ible banner,
on the edges of this momentous con
flict—which class Jubal Early has lira*
tued to the life.” As we havo a few
of the same sort left in Georgia, we
commend to them the truthful and pa
triotic Southern utterance of one of
their late chieftians, who has had the
manhood, like General Early, to re
trace his steps, when he saw whither
they were leading him. Thus speaks
Join Forsyth: Curae what iray,f.crn
the dusty fields of the hardest fought
battles in the great States east and
west of us, no Southern State can af
ford to fail in this contest. Georgia
ha 9 blazed the way, aud shown that
her interests and manhood are in her
judgment, deeply at stake. Neither
Virginians, Georgians, Alabamians,
nor any of the other States of the
South that are not band-cuffed and
hobbled from Washington, may, with
out discredit to their traditional vir
tues of high and generous tone, be
outdone by the East and West when
they extend their hands “across the
bloody chasm," and say “come, broth
ers, let us restore the liberty, the
equality, the peace and the friendship
of the olden time, and down with the
shoulder straps and thieves iu the gov
ernment.! And no uian can say that
-onr Liberal allies, and the Eastern and
Western Democracy, are not fighting
up to this sentiment ami doing deeds
even beyond their promises. There
is no Presidential battle like this one
in the annals of the country.- I really
pity the men who, with the power to
strike a single blow in it, are wasting
their manhood and dwarfing their
souls with beating the air with idle
words under an impossible banner on
the edges of this momentous conflict.
TV in we or lose in it, the after thoughts
of these wind-mill knights are m t to
jbe envied. Jubal Early has already
| limmed the class to the life.
The fervent spirit of Georgia cannot
j be confined to iler own boundaries.—
Let the people of our own proud State
open their hearts to receive its inspira
i tion and nerve them with the nvovable
purpose to equal the feat of their next
•door neighbors ; and thus settle the
question for once and all that white
brains and courage are not to be dom
inated by ignorance and stupidity,
handled bv white thieves and backed
by the power o‘s the Federal govern
ment. Let this be done not?; and we
shall hear no more of carpet baggers
and j>e7' se negro party. And this is
a consummation as devoutly to be
wished for the negro’s sake as for the
white man’s.
From the New.imi Herald
Republicanism vs. Centralism.
NUMBER THREE.
The villainous plunder of seven
Southern States by irresponsible scala
wag governments, must indelibly
stamp the character of the present ad
ministration as beneath the soundings
of virtue’s plummet. In vain may we
search the history of despotic govern
ments, under the most despotic Pi in
ces, for parallels of corruption.
Prominent Statesmen at the North,
among whom w r e may mention
Horace- Greeley, very early foresaw of
the wisdom of that policy which
would most speedily and effectively
secure peace, harmony and reconcilia
tion. General pardon for political o f
feuses was confidently believed to be
the surest means for the attainment
of this result.
Indeed, it has always appeared lo my
mind, that no one, who had the good
of the country at heart, could have re
fused this boon to the South. There
could be no consistency in excluding
from the provisions of the Amnesty
Bill the influential men of the South.
With the downfall of the South our
leading Statesman were anxious to re
turn to their allegiance, Notwith
standing the illiberal policy of the gov
ernment towards them, they have la
bored with hand and brain to secure
peace. Amnesty is neither more nor
less than oblivion of the past. It is
essentially a condition of peace.
A writer on international law says:
“An amnesty is a perfect oblivion ot
the past; and the end of peace is to
extinguish all subjects of discord
Though the treaty should be wholly
silent on this head, the amnesty, by
the very nature of the peace, is neces
sarily implied in it.” And again, ”In
many cases the safest, and, at the
same time the most just method of
appeasing seditions is to give the peo
pie satisfaction. And if there existed
no grounds to justify the insurrection
(a circumstance which, perhaps, neve r
happens) even in such a case it be
comes neccessary, as wc have obser
ved, to grant an amnesty where the
offenders are numerous. When the
Amnesty is once published and ac
cepted all the past must be buried
in oblivion ; nor must any one be
be called to account for what has been
done during the disturbances ; and in
general the sovereign, whoso Avoid
ought ever to be sacred, is bound to
the faithful obseivnnee of every
promise he has made, even to rebels,
—I mean to such of his subjects as
have revolted without reason or necesi
h.”—Mattel Law ot Nations.
Such was the doctrine held by this
distinguished author on international
law. It was the legal right of every
man in the South to claim pardon for
tire past according to the very terms
of the surrender. It was the duty
of the conqueror to grant it.
Such was the position and such the
policy advocated by Mr Greeley irr
mediately after the surrender at Ap
pomatox. Had his wise counsel been
heeded, we had long since experienced
the blessings of peace and witnessed
the restoration of fraternal relations
But what is the'solemn record of his.
torv ? The mails have been burden
ed with petitions to Congress. Our
petitions have t>een slighted. We
have sought every honorable means
to attest our loyalitv to the govern
inent. We have been told that the
followers of Lee and of Jackson are
unfit to be trusted. It was not until
a thunder peal came from Cincinnati,
which startled a bribed Congress from
its fancied security, that the shackles
were taken from our limbs. To save
the failing fortunes of the party, the
bill for general amnesty was hurried
through Congress and received the
sanction of the royal peace-maker.
And how eloquently do those who
now favor his pretention prate about
general amnesty ; when the fact is
patent to every one, with one eye and
half sense, that Congress and the
President have thwarted every meas
ure for the passage of the bill.
Fellow citizens, the persistent ex.
elusion of onr best men from all influ
ence in the government has brought
sorrow to our hearts and desolation to
our homes. Whatever we have suf
sered from carpet bag legislation, is
directly traceable to this most mis
cbieveous policy. What crimes have
not been perpetrated by these govern
merits, and that, in the names of peace,
and loyal itv and law ? Whole States
have been mercilessly plundered amt
cities sacked to gorge the vora
cious appetites of the foul desecrators
of the temples of liberty and of God.
Look at the utter prostration of our
industry, the depletion of our treasury
the ruin of our commerce and the
desolation of our land. Look at our
once blooming fields now given to the
briar and the weed. Look at capital
as well as emigration frightened from
our country by the strong hand of
plunder.
I need not address this argument to
the true sons of Georgia. The histo
ry of carpet-bag government is known
and read of all men. But fellow citi->
zens, phrazes lose their force by con
stunt reiteration. Facts are stubborn
things. With these we desire to deal.
Look, for one moment at the frightful
pecuniary submersion of the Southern
States. The debt of Georgia in 1801
was $2,670,575; in 1871 the known
liability of the State was not less than
twenty seven millions. In Florida,
in 1861, the public debt was three
hundred and seventy thousand ; in
1870 under Radical rule, it is not less
than fifteen millions, State taxes, be
fore the war, were $83,000 per an
num ; 1871 they are $476,301. Local
taxes increased from 23 cents in 1861
on the hundred dollars lo $1,50 in
1871. The debt of Alabama, in 1861
was seven and one-half millions ; in
1871 it leached $36,761,819, with a
further indebtedness tor railway bonds
of sixteen millions. In Mississippi, in
1861, the cost of the State govern
ment, per annum, was $350,000 ; in
1861, over two millions. Local taxa
tion in 1861 was $970,000 ; in 1871
over two and one half millions. The
debt of Texas, in IS6I, was two mil.
lions ;in 1871, $44,034,782. The
rate ot taxation in 1861 was cents
on the one hundred dollars ; in 1871,
$2,08. In Arkansas the debt in 1861
was two millions ; in 1871, it is eight
millions, with eleven millions railway
indebtness. The rate ot taxation lias
increased from 40 cents, in 1861, to
$3,00 on the one hundred dollars in
1871, The debt of South Carolina in
1861, was four millions , in 1871,
$34,599,763. Local taxes, in 18G1,
were $1,200,000 ; in 1871 over three
millions. The debt of North Caroli
na in 1861 was twelve millions ; in
1871 over $36,000,00). Here, then,
fellow-citizens is an of pub
lic debt in these smitten States of
over two hundred millions ot dollars.
And yet we hear from day to day of
Radical eoonomy. It is Radical ras
cality and every Radical robbery.*
But look again at the wonderful
decrease in the area as well as value
of improved lands in the South. The
. area of improved lauds in South Car
olina in 18G1 was $1 ? '00 ? 000 ; in
1871, $3,000,000. The value ot farms
has decreased in this stricken State
from $139,000,000 in ISGI to $45,
000,000 in 1871. Here is a less of
over two thirds of the value of farm
ing lands. In Florida, in IS7I, a con
vent ion of tax payers declared :
“That after the actual cost of produc
tion there will not remain in the
hands of producers a sufficient amount
to pay the taxes on their property,
thus leaving them without the means
of support for their families and em
ployees for the ensuing year.” The
value of farms in that State in 1861
was sixteen millions ; in 1871 only
ten millions. The number of acres of
improved lands in our own State has
decreased from eight, millions in 1861
to six millions in 1871, and the value
of farms Iroru $157,099,0)3 to $94,
0)9,00). In Alabama the area of
unproved lands has decreased from
six and one-half millions in 1861 to
five millions in IS7I, and their value
from $199,099,0)9 to $81,099,09).
In Louisiana the decrease in the value
of improved lands is from $231,9)3,-
099 to $68,099,09) in 1871. In Tex
as the value of improved lands de
crease from $88,09),033, to $00,090
090, in 1371, 28,000,090 off. The
value ot improved lands in Arkan
sas has decreascsed from $91,000,-
000 in 1861 to $40,000,009 in 1871.
There has been a corresponding de
crease in the area of improved lands.
In North Carolina the value of im
proved farms in 1861 was $142,003,
030. and 1871 $78,009,093. The tax
es have grown to such an alarming
extent that in August, 1871, the Gov
ernor officially announces; “The peo
pie cannot bear the necessary taxa
tion, without being deprived of their
property, air 1 , in many cases, of the
necessaries of life.” What a shameful
record is this? And what party ha ß
brought this terrible state of affairs
on the country? We say the policy
of the present administration has done
it. No mail can have been so unob
servant of events as to question the
proposition. '
But it may be argued, that all t his
results from the prostration of industry
and the complete revolution of our
labor system consequent ui the rebel*
lion Look to the financial condition
of Tennessee, Missouri, Virginia and
Kentucky. Here was the bloody are
na of war. Certainly it there be any
force in the argument it will apply to
these States. The local taxes in Ken
tucky, in 1861, were £7,744.232 ; in
187 L $8,103,200. In Tennessee the
local taxes in 1861 were £6,795,0)0
in 1871 $6,643,000 ; more in 1861
than 1871. In Missouri, in 18G1, lo*
cal taxes were $6,246,812 ; in 1871
$8,440,512, In Virginia in 13-31, tlie
local tax were $11,437,821, and 1871
$10,745,288. The local taxes in the
seven States which have been under
carpet-bag rule have, in some cases
thribbled since 1861.
The fact is, fellow citizens, those
four States have thrown off the tyran
ny ot carpet bag rule, and this
accounts for their superior prosperity,
financially. Neither the area nor the
value of their improved lands have
decreased. Capitol and labor have
found profitable investment, Virgin
ia and Missouri were redeemed by
coalition of the Democratic and Lib
eral Republicans. This coalition sav
ed them from the bankruptcy which
has overtaken their seven sister States.
And what have we to show for this
outlay of public money ? Where is
the internal improvement and the free
schools of which we have heard so
much. No, fellow-citizens, it has
been systematic plunder and legalized
robbery, nothing more, nothing less.
I desist from further comment on
this unpleasant subject. The figures
are startling. Shame on the man and
shame on the Congress which could
witness such wholesale plunder and
theft, aim give aid and comfort to
criminals. In the names of truth and
history we charge every dollar filched
from a bleedingand impoverished peo
ple to Gen. Grant, backed and encour
aged by a Radical Congress, lie has
added and abetted Bullock arid other
thieves, and is not one whit less crim
inal because lie has operated on » more
extensive scale. They who endorse
his administration endorse Bullock,
and there can be no inconsistency in
their defending the administration of
Bullock.
But, fellow-citizens, the ruinous re
sults of carpet-bag legislation, are fur
ther seen in the serious obstacles
thrown in the way of trade between
the South and Northwest, Hitherto
the Southern State's have furnished a
ready market for the abundant grain
as well ns the stock raised in the
Northwest. Why the steady decrease
in the demand for products of this fer
tile region ? The reason is obvious.
Labor follows capital and capital
seeks profitable investment, The
enormous taxes imposed on the fruits
of our industry for tire support *of
scalawag governments, have frighten
ed Capital from southern fields Not
Ku-Ivlux organizations, but tax gath
erer's have done this. As an inevitable
consequence of this check on invest
ment, emigrants have had no encour
agement to settle among us. This
accounts, too, tor the very remarka
ble decrease in the area of improved,
lands arid their frightful decrease in
value. The demand for labor has
much to do with the value of lands.—
When the laborers are few, wages are
high. High wages render farming
compartivoly unprofitable. Asa log : -
ical consequence, lands decrease in
value and in the amount under culti
vation. One of the chief difficulties
in tire South has been, and is, the lack
ot labor. Labor has no encourage
ment whe v e burdensome taxes con
sume its fruits. Partisan legislation
and carpet-bag domination, have
brought utter demoralization to our
labor system,
