We publish this week the admira
ble speech delivered by Hon. B. H.
Hill, at Atlanta, on Friday evening,
the 14th inst. Wo need hardly call
attention to it. The extraordinary
interest maifested in it by all parties
at the time of its delivery, we feel
quite sure, will be shared by the peo
ple generally.
The Baltimore Convention will
consist of 734 delegates. States have
held their Democratic Conventions,
and appointed delegates to Balti
more, numbering 808. These States
are: Kansas, Greeley 10; lowa,
Greeley 22; Indiana, Greeley 30,
Florida, Greeley 8; South Carolina,
Greeley 14; Tennessee, Greeley 24;
Vermont, Greeley 10; Missouri,
Greeley 30; West Virginia, Greeley
10; New York, Greeley 70; Louisi
ana, Greeley 16; Pennsylvania,
Greeley 63; Total 302. For a straight
ticket: Delaware, 6. Total 308. The
remaining States express the same
preference through their leaders and
the press.

stallments covering six years, the first
three of which will be exempt from

liberal as could be desired.
Wisconsin has the largest propor
tion of Germans, according to popu
lation, of any State in the Union. Its
pronunciamento, therefore, for Gree
ley and Brown cannot be without a
marked effect upon that class of our
population in all the Union. Senator
Carl Schurz was formerly a citizen of
Wisconsin. The action of his old
friends in his old State is significant
of what, in time, we may expect from
him.
It is a remarkable fact that but one
of the five survivors of Mr. Lincoln’s
cabinet as originally constituted, en

was turned out of the cabinet in dis
grace.
It is reported that Col. Montgom

[HON. JOSIAH U. PARRCyrr.
The death of such a man as Judge
Parrott requires more than a passing
notice. Judge Parrott was possessed
of some of the attributes that make
men remarkable; some of these he
possessed in an eminent degree. As
an administrative officer, he was ex
celled by few public men of his time.
It is not claimed for him that he was
a very learned man or a profound law
yer. Nor was he a severe student.
His mind was not of that cast that
submits to the dull drudgery of the
study. It was quick, energetic, grasp
ing, vigorous. When a question was
submitted, his mind reached out, and
took it in at once. What most men
learned by effort in detail, he knew'
at once as a whole. His mind was
clear and incisive. If he was right,
he was clearly right; if he was wrong
he was clearly wrong. His brain was
no half way house for doubtful ideas.
Asa politician he was decisive and
earnest. The party with which he
allied himself, had the full benefit of
all his faculties. He belongd to the
class of men—very few in number—
w'ho mould, rather than fol w
public opinion.
Asa public speaker, either at the
bar or on the hustings, he was point
ed, direct and able. Few men had
more energy of mind or directness of
expression. He was not what the
populace call eloquent; but his argu
ment found a lodgment, where mere
eloquence would not have rested. He
had a liberal education, having taken
a degree at Emory and; llenry college,
Virginia, but his general range of in
formation was not as consistent and
harmonious as a more systematic
course of reading might have made it.
He was born in Cock county Tennes
see, on the day of February,
1826, and died at Mont Vale Springs
on the 10th June, 1872. He came to
Georgia in 1848 or ’49. Married Miss
Mary M. Trammell, daughter of Col.
Jehu Trammell of Habersham coun
ty, about the year 1850. He then re
sided in the county of Gordon, and
was elected to the Constitutional Con
vention of lßfjp, from that county.
He was then a very young man, but
served his constituents with honor to
himself and satisfaction to them. He
settled in Cartersville about the year
1852, where he lived to the day of his
death. Commenced the practice of
law, and soon built up a large and
lucrative business. Judge Parrott al
ways felt a deep interest in politics,
and generally took an active part in
the political questions of the day.
Before the late war, he was a whig (ff
the most ardent school. In 1856, he
was an Elector in his district on the
Fillmore ticket. In 1860 he was an
Elector for his district on the Bell and
Everett ticket, and stumped, with
great effect, northern and northwest
Georgia. In 1862 he was appointed
Quarter Master, with the rank of Ma
jor, of the Brigade of Gen’l Wofford,
which position he held, discharging
the duties with characteristic energy
and efficiency, until the latter part of
the year 1868, when he was appointed
Solicitor General of the Cherokee Cir
cuit. He was reappointed Solicitor
General in 1865, which position he
held till the reconstruction of the
State was accomplished in 1868. His
record as State’s attorney is as bright
as that of any man who ever held the
office in Georgia. Some of our great
est men have been Solicitors General:
Howell Cobb, Wm. Hope Hull, John
W. H. Underwood and others too nu
merous to mention, who have shed
luster on Georgia’s annals; but none
of this bright array discharged the
duties of that office more ably than
did the subject of this sketch.
J udge Parrott was elected by the
voters of Bartow county to the Con
stitutional Convention of 1865. In
that Convention, presided over by
Herschel V. Johnson and in which
Charles J. Jenkins was a member,
Judge Parrott took a prominent and
able part. But as the Constitution
framed by the Convention of 1865,
was distasteful to the dominant sec
tion, another Constitutional Conven
tion was called to meet in Atlanta
under military authority. To that
Convention, known as the Conven
tion of 1868, Judge Parrott was elect
ed by the voters of the 42d Senatorial
District, lie was elected President
of that body, in which there were a
few able, some weak and many dis
orderly men. His discharge of the
duties thus imposed, is a part of the
history of the times. There is noth
ing in his record of that time, of
which his family may not be proud.
In the chair, and on the floor, his
conduct was all that Georgia might
have expected of her ablest sons. He
at once allied himself with the mod
erate element of the Convention, and
bent all his energies to the adoption
of a Constitution that would protect
the interests of the tax payers of the
State. If he had lent himself to the
base purposes of the scalawags and ne
groes, he would have been Governor
of Georgia in place of Bullock. What
there is of good in the Constitution
of 1868, is perhaps, more due to Judge
Parrott than any other man. After
the adoption of this Constitution and
the organization of a State govern
ment under it, he was appointed
Judge of the Superior Courts of the
Cherokee circuit for eight years from
July 1868. In that capacity, Judge
Parrott made a record for himself
that would live, if he had held no
other position of honor and trust. To
fill the place as Judge Parrott filled it,
is to impose upon his successor a du
ty difficult to perform. His adminis
tration of the law, has worked a rev
olution in the morals of his circuit.
His example has been followed more
or less in other circuits, and has there
by been of great service to the State
at large. Take Judge Parrott alto
gether, in all the relations a judicial
officer of his rank bears to the people,
and he is well entitled to the appella
tion of a great judge. He was a Re
publican in politics; presided in a cir
cuit where four-fifths of the people
are Democrats; yet his popularity is
almost without exception. The re
mark is almost universal, “ we differ
ed from Judge Parrott in politics, but
he was>n able Judge, whose place
will be*difficult to fill.”
Aside from public station, in his
death, Cartersville, the place of his
home, where he lived and died, to
whose welfare his watchful eyes were
never shut, has lost one of her most
valuable citizens. In her councils
she will miss his wisdom and practi
cability. And when we all come to
render our final account, may our
sins be as few, and our benefits to so
ciety as great.

[From the Athens Watchmen.
gen. toomhs* speech.
Asa part of file history of the tin tea,
we print the report of the outrageous
and blasphemous speech delivered in
Atlanta by Gen. Toombs. In com
mon with the people of Georgia gen
erally, we are proud of the grand in
tellect of this son of the soil, but we
cannot admire the manner in which
this great intellect is sometimes pros
tituted. ..
Leaving out of view the gross blas
phemy contained in the speech refer
red to, its whole spirit is abominable.
It exiiibits a degree of intolerance
which would be disgraceful to an un
tutored savage. Does Gen. T. sup
pose that the people of Georgia, “like
dumb driven cattle,” fear his lash,
and can be frightened into following
his lead ? That day is over. They
feel that they have already followed
him to ruin! ,
It is very modest in him to de
nounce as thieves and robbers such
men as Gen. Benning, Gen. Gordon,
Gen. Wright, and thousands of less
conspicuous, but just as good men,
who were at the front fighting the en
emy, while he was fighting the Con
federate Government in the rear 1
It is equally modest for him to un
dertake to read, out of the Democrat
ic party men who have always voted
the ticket, when he. J ike many others,
never acted w Hi t until he had no
other place to go—and, it is even said
that he then d<K*lared he would join
it for the purpose of breaking it down!
Our Augusta contemporary, (the
Constitutionalist,) is mistaken in say
ing that “General Toombs’ speech
will do harm to nobody but himself.”
The people of Georgia do not sympa
thize in the declaration that he hates
the Government of the United States
and has trampled on the flaunting lie,
and hopes to do so again ; and yet,
this declaration will lx? used to inflame
the Northern masses against them, as
were the utterances of his “ bush ar
bor speech” in 1868. Such men as
Gen. Toombs can do infinite harm to
the whole people of the South by such
utterances. Not only did he contrib
ute materially to the election of Grant,
but also furnished a pretext for the
harsh, cruel and unjust legislation of
Congress afterwards. The jieople of
Georgia are tired of this.
POLITICAL TALK IN WASH
INGTON.
Timon, of the Richmond Dispatch,
says on Saturday, writing at Wash
ington :
The evidences of future political
developments that can legitimately
be drawn from the results of the Indi
ana Convention have produced anew
sensation among Radical circles in
this city. The extra-zealous men act
ually begin now to hesitate in their
bold assertions that the Democrats
who will meet at Baltimore will nev
er consent to nominate or endorse
Mr. Greeley. From past ridicule of
the idea they have swerved to a feel
ing of surprise, and wonder if the
Democracy will nominate the Cincin
nati ticket. There are a dozen old
Radical politicians here who have
constantly insisted that the Baltimore
Convention will repudiate that ticket
without hesitation, but within the
past two days their convictions are
becoming changed. The signs from
the West are not pleasant for them
to contemplate, and the reports from
Pennsylvania do not grow better as
the avant couriers bring them in. The
hasty departure of the President, and
the admitted failure of our treaty ne
gotiations almost at the same time,
have not been facts to reinspire the
leaders with any new hope of success.
Within the first few days some of the
sanguine but generally admitted good
observers of political skies have set
down for Greeley, in the event of his
nomination at Baltimore (now cer
tain,) the States of New York, Missou
ri, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Connecti
cut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island,
Delaware, and New Jersey, and all
the Southern States excepting, per
haps, South Carolina and Mississippi,
and including Kentucky and Mary
land. The betting politicians—and
this place affords a nest for several of
that ilk—find no takers to the offer
that he will be nominated at Balti
more. Taking all things into consid
eration—good, bad, and indifferent—
it cannot be contradicted that the up
ward movement of Greeley stock has
almost paralyzed the opposition sen
timents of those gentlemen, who, in
their attempts to persuade the Democ
racy that he is not the fit person for
their nomination, had almost conclu
ded that their suggestions were hav
ing weight in the party.
Andy Johnson says of the Cincin
nati movement:
“ The politicians have nothing to
do with this; the people have wrest
ed it from their hands, and when
they move it is irresistible.”
Washington, June 22.— The Ken
tucky Democratic Convention re-af
firms the principles of recent State
Conventions, and urges a union of all
elements against Grant, and instructs
her delegates to vote as a unit. The
Greeley feeling is evidently domi

New York, June2l. —At the Fifth

How are we to defeat Grant ? By
supporting Greeley.”
Virginia has just transferred seven

The population of Albany is set

Mem-s. Editors: In your issue of
the 18th. inst.,, you ask the question
why my furmi.ee was chilled up so
soon after starling her. The cause is
a plain one to me and to all the hands
around the fur nace.
Capt. Thomas, who owns a furnace
about one mile above me, on the same
creek, shut off the water for several
hours, and before my mill got to
working well,and thus chilled me up.
Whether Capt. Thomas did this
with the intention to injure me or
not, I cannot say; but I do know that
he was aware of the fact that it would
chill up my furnace, if he stopped the
water —and yet he did it.
I suppose a man has the right to use
the water as it passes through his
land, for any purpose he may see
proper, whether for furnaces or saic
mitls. Capt. Thomas has one furnace
and two saw mills—one about a mile
and a half below me, and another he
has just put up, about a mile above
me. This is the one that did the
work for me.
These mills are not run by 30 horse
power engines, and consequently it
might have been cheaper for Capt.
Thomas to put up the saw mill above
me, to saw a few hundred feet of lum
ber, for coal beds, etc., (and chill up a
furnace occasionally,) than to have
hauled it from his lower mill, which
would have been about three miles.

The Greensboro Herald has the
“ blues” over the present condition of
the Democratic party in Georgia.
Cheer up, Brother Burns. It will all
work out right in the end. The
Herald says:
A few months ago it stood com
pactly and triumphantly together—
elected a reformatory Governor and
Legislature, and established a wise
and reliable Supreme Judiciary. It
was then strong and confident in its
unity. Look at it now! Rent and
raving. And by whom and for
whom ? Not by the people, the hon
est masses, but by rings, spoilsmen
and placemen. Torn, furious and
belligerent—not upon fundamental
principle, this could be excused—but
upon mere questions of policy and ex
pediency and in advance of any call
for their decision by the General
Convention at Baltimore. We think,
if there are enough sane men in the
Georgia Legislature, they should im
mediately on assembling, pass a law
to protect the people against crazy
politicians and confirmed dema
gogues. This and a dog law, might
secure to us peace and plenty.
Lincoln, Nebraska, June 20.
The Democratic State Convention
met here to day. Resolutions were
unanimously adopted indorsing the
Cincinnati platform, and delegates to
Baltimore were instructed to vote as
a unit for Greeley and Brown. The
greatest harmony prevailed, and thp
Convention adjourned amid great en
thusiasm.
Little Roo k, June 21. — The Dem
ocratic State Convention adjourned at
10 o’clock this morning. The follow
ing resolutions, among others, were
adopted:
3. That the delegates appointed to
the Baltimore Convention to meet
the 9th of July next be instructed to
vote for the ratification of the nomi
nation of Greeley and Brown, as can
didates for President and Vice Presi
dent of the United States in the ensu
ing election.
4. That we indorse the Cincinnati
Platform of political principles, and
the platform of principles adopted by
the Reform Republican party in their
convention of May 22, 1872, at Little
Rock.
5. That it would be unwise and in
expedient for the Democratic party
to nominate a State ticket for the en
suing election, and we declare against
it.
The Executive Committee of the
Democratic party of Fulton county,
which was cal led upon by the Steph
ens bolters to decide the question of
calling another Democratic meeting
to appoint delegates to the State Con
vention, has decided not to make the
call.
The Constitution says: “A count
er petition to the one for the call fora
new meeting was circulated in the
city, and in less than twenty-four
hours receive! over seven hundred
names of the liest citizens. It could
have been easily doubled had there
been time before the committee met
to have seen the parties. We would
publish it, but it is unnecessary. Any
one can see it who desires,”
So far, the Democratic current has
been almost unanimously for Greeley.
Os the 734 votes in the Baltimore Con
vention, 468 are for Greeley, or within
twenty-one of a two-thirds majority.
Illinois, Ohio, Mississippi and Vir
ginia, from present indications, are al
most certain to go for Greeley,
The most hopeful estimate of the
vote for a straight nomination does
not figure up over seventy.— Atlanta

CHEROKEE COUNTY SKETCHES.
NO. IX.
As we have said, Wm. May was
one of the early settlers of Cherokee
county. He and his sons employed
their time for a number of years in
working the Sixes gold mines. The
old man was a large, dark-skinned,
rough old fellow, and was familliarly
called “ Old Rusty,” a very appro
priate nick-name. He loved to eat,
and often boasted that his family,
which was large, could consume a
beef a week ! One member of his
household boasted of having per
formed the extraordinary feat of eat
ing eleven roasting-tiars at a meal.
The quantity of roughness taken at
the tame time was not stated. If he
could not find the gold, “ Old Rusty”
would buy provisions on a credit,
and his creditors often realized the
fact that it was not his interest to pay
the principal, nor his principle to pay
the interest. When asked to pay a
note which had run for a long time,
he would often remark with great
coolness, “\ ou may consider it
paid!” The sons, like their father,
were also rough and large. Owen
May was six feet and seven inches
high, and was a droll specimen of
humanity. He was a considerable
wag in his way, and generally creat
ed a laugh in every crowd he enter
ed. William, the eldest of the boys,
was considered to be the best gambler
in all the country; but we have un
derstood that the sharpers about Car
tersville often trumped him after he
came here.
“ Old Rusty” claimed to be a good
Presbyterian, but he loved to see his
boys play cards, and would often
stand by and watch the game with
great interest and complacency. We
were very much amused at a report
given us by one of the boys after
they had all removed to Gilmer
county. We asked how William
was getting along. “ Oh, first rate,”
replied our informant; “he is doing
very well —has quit drinking—is
making money, and is as well
thought of as any man in all that
country.” “What business is he
following now,” said we. “ Gamb
lin’f was the candid reply!
“Old Rusty” gave the most of
his sons big names, as the following
specimens will show: Napoleon
Bonaparte, Andrew Jackson, Boli
var, and Marquis de LaFayette ! (ti
tle and all!) Some of the boys were
great Methodists at times, and none
enjoyed camp-meetings more than
they; and in fact they enjoyed al
most any occasion. They were good
hands to visit and wait on the sick,
and in this way often made them
selves useful. They were also good
hands to attend all the frolics which
occurred in the neighborhood. They
rendered efficient service at many a
log-rolling and corn-shucking, and
made many a cabin ring with their
“ play songs,” and many a set of
sleepers tremble as they engaged in
the merry dance! Alas! “Old
Rusty” and his boys are all scattered
and gone now, and “we ne’er shall
look upon their like again.” They
were useful in their way, and filled
a place in society and in the world
which none others could have filled;
and we can’t help feel ing lonely when
we revisit the hills and valleys
around old Sixes so intimately asso
ciated with them and remember that
they, together with many of the
friends of our child-hood, are gone
to return no more forever! So long
as we appreciate good nature, kind

LETTER FROM CHEROKEE.
Walesca, Ga., June 17, 1872.
Messrs. Editors: I will give you a
few facts in relation to the crops in
this section. The wheat crop which
we have all looked forward to with
so much interest, bids fair for a good
yield. I think it the best we have
had in many years. Corn is small,
but has a good appearance. Oats are
not very good, though much better
than expected some time back. Our
people have planted more cotton this
year than ever before in one year,
and it looks well generally. Tobac
co heretofore has been the main
money crop, and a good deal has
been planted this year. Farmers are
making herculean efforts this year to
make farming pay. Politics are ef
fecting them but little as yet; haven’t
seen a white hat, though some of
them seem to think white a good
color. I like it better than 1 do
black; a medium color might, be
best. S.
When Uk Uu.lte, with i ' ket-1 ittt
violence to the head, causing hot flushes, ver
tigo anil dimness of sight, it is a certain sign
that a mild, salubrious, cooling and equalizing
laxative is required, and Tarrant’s Effer
vescent Seltzer Aperient should be at once
resorted to.
