POLITICAL*.
It was our good fortune to meet
with one of the delegates from Ala- .
bam ato the Baltimore Convention,
the other day on the train, on his re
turn home—a gentleman of intelli
gence and influence and widely
known. Ile represented the prospect
for the success of the nominated tick
et of the most flattering and popular
character, the opinion being based
upon reliable information given by
the different delegates from the va-,
rious States. The Convention was
enthusiastic as to the final result;
not so much from any particular at
tachment to, or admiration for, Mr.
Greeley, on the part of the people, as
expressed by the delegates, but from
a general and deeply settled opinion,
belief and sentiment, that the inter
ests of the country and the perpetua
tion of our Constitutional form of
Government, and the rights of the :
States, and the individual liberties of
j the citizens, imperiously demanded
i the overthrow of the present admin
istration and an immediate return to j
! the old paths of the fathers. It is
confidently expected that Pennsyl- !
vania and Indiana will certainly go j
I for the Greeley ticket; not without,
well grounded assurances, that 11 li-
I nois will follow in the same track.]
! In this last State, the Democracy
have put in nomination for Governor
| one of the ablest and the most popu
ular gentlemen in the State, and a
German at that, who will, it Is con- j
fidently believed, carry the whole
German population with him,
amounting, if we are not mistaken,
to 60,000 voters, which added to the
solid body of the native Democracy,
which is now for the most part
united, will triumphantly carry the
day. In Indiana the most cheering
state of things exist. The nomina
tion of Hendricks secures beyond
all reasonable probability the success
of the Democracy by an overwhelm
ing majority, not less, as is positive
ly asserted by the best informed men
from that State, than ten thousand
votes, with a strong probability that
it will reach 20,000. Morton and his
crew already tremblingly shrink
from the contest, and give up the
Radical cause as already doomed to
defeat. Indeed, so far as our person
al information goes, as derived from
intelligent gentlemen from these va
rious States, as well as from the gen
eral intelligence to be derived from
the press, the signs of the times pre
sage the triumph of good principles
and good men, over the corrupt spoil
ers and oppressors of the people, and
the immoral and destructive princi
ples of Radicalism. As for Mr. Gree
ley, while all men are willing readily
to admit his ability and preparedness
for ofliee, and many are ready to en
dorse his honesty and faithfulness as
well as his capacity, as a person, he
is wholly unknown in the contest,
and only the principles and the meas
ures which he avows and represents,
gather around him the great hosts of
awakened freemen, who are in this
100 victory into the Presidential
chair. It does one’s heart good to
contemplate the prospect before us,
while at the same time it is earnestly
believed that now, laying aside all
the memories of the past, which
might distract a united Democratic
action in the living present, all men
of all parties at the South should
come up to the aid of our ticket in
this great, and we hope and believe
finally decisively successful struggle
for the rights of the people. We re
peat, that our contest is not that a
particular man should be elected, or
a mere party be successful. The care
and the zeal, and the energy to be
expended is not for Horace Greeley,
but that representing as he does, the
men all over the land who cry out
against all invasions of the Constitu
tion and perversions of law, all op
pression of the people, and progres
sion towards centralism and the one
man power, with all political fraud
and corruption; therefore it is that
around him they gather, and deter
mining to have anew order of things,
and the old Government with its old
everlasting principles of right re-es
tablished; therefore it is that the
just men of the Liberal Republicans
at Cincinnati, and time-honored De
mocracy at Baltimore, letting “ the
dead past bury the dead,” and all
like freemen earnest in the cause of
liberty, giving their whole soul and
energy to the rescue of the country
from the perils which beset it, have
locket! shields for the contest under
the banner which bears upon its folds
the names of Greeley and Brown.
We have had faith all along in the
result of the contest, and every day
but adds to its confirmation; nor
shall we lay aside that faith until it
is realized in the grand victory
which awaits us.
Georgia Republicans.
A call for a meeting of the Georgia
Republicans who favor the election of
Greeley and Brown, at Atlanta on
the 24th inst., at 10 a. m., for the pur
pose of consultation has been issued
by Col. Thos. P. Safford of Madison.
The meeting came off on yesterday
but we have not heard before going
to press of the result of their deliber
ations, although we may safely say
that we confidently expect such a con
clusion as will result in an active and
hearty cooperation in the election of
the Cincinnati and Baltimore ticket.
These gentlemen were represented in
the Cincinnati Convention and we
presume that the call is made to carry
out effectually, and concentrate the
strength of the Liberal Republicans
in Georgia by thorough organization
upon the declared views of the Liber
als in Convention in Ohio. The aid
Which they can bring to the ticket is
by no means to be despised, the more
particularly, because of the direction
which their efforts may give to the
vote of the colored population of the
State.
The Grand Public, Quixotic and
Prize Fight, of Atlanta.
Through Schedule, and llag
gage Checked.
Messrs. Editors:— When the
great duel cornea off, which is soon to
be fought in the festive city of Atlan
ta, at Col. Buncomb’s head quarters,
many of the plain people will close up
business to witness said performances
all are expected to attend, and espe
cially the epitaph corps; they keep
the record of the spirit oi the times
and must be present at roll call.
It behooves every one therefore,
who is at all fond of sight seeing,—
the marvelous or the taste .of blood,
to hold himself as a minute man, pre
pared for marching orders on the
shortest notice; for it will never do
for Georgians to give such an affair
the go by, when as many as two of
her once prominent citizens, —stag-
gering under the ponderous opinion,
that this contemplated tragedy is to
constitute the key stone of State af
fairs at least for the present decade.
How are the plain common people to
] behave themselves on such au occa
sion, the matter is thrust before them,
—this is the question now. It is no
longer the election of Greeley—the
I amnesty question—the Railroad lease,
nor the llilk Brown colored fraud,
the fight is before us, and these things
are all forgotten in the frenzied ex
pectation of the next isssue of State
papers upon the signature; let the
press everywhere aid in this matter,
and let these papers come by the bas
ket full; the people are not tired, they
are starving at the various Post-offices
for more on both sides of the question ;
they are now fully ready to repeal the
dueling laws —to offer to all deaconsa
dispensation to lock up the churches,
| and adjourn the Legislature, they are
! sovereigns, they have a right to wit
! ness one drama true to life, upon the
famous old Quixotic plan.
The people are sovereigns it is true,
! but how they will play their mighty
part we must wait auu see ; weknow
they, are expected in this one game,
] to play successfully the wining hand.
Yes they are expected to go even so
far as to chain and make harmless and
secure, till the word is given, two
waving lion hearted bullies. If the
sagacious and friendly ringmasters,
charged with the properties of the oc
casion, and the details of said exhibi
tion, will only act wisely and come
fully up to the tip toe of expectation
as they should, the floor will be heav
ily sanded, so that the fitness may
j appear, of ending the whole matter,
| as we will see, just where it likely be
; gall.
These ringmasters will not however
bind this brace of bullies to keep the
peace with chains, as at first suggest
ed, this would be too much like join
| ing the Grant and Alexander faction,
the people can’t afford to loose by the
same stroke of the pen both their les
see and their back chalker.
Noisy chains don’t become gentle
men very well any way, unless they
grow too fond of snorting around, and
we know our heroes had rather fight
twice than snort once; and moreover
it is now supposed that any use of
heavy metal is slightly violative of
some of the recent decisions in the
code; until houses can be built for the
purpose, of safety, the friendly ring
masters will please cause the fettering
to be done with paper twine, to the
opposite ends of a beer counter, tak
ing special pains to have the bullies
facing each other, so that if they
should chance to brake loose, which
is not apprehended at all, they will
not in their fits of rage, or mistake,
devour an innocent people.
With these arrangements all prop
erly made an immense amount of
first class grimacing, grinning and
statesmanlike growling, can be (lone
with honor all preserved and no blood
let, till the word is given ; this little
side show will possess the superior ad
vantage of coining off before equals
and peers, under favorable circum
stances for being both heard and re
membered.
Here also the fuel can be had easily
without drayage, which is usually re
lied on as a motive power in such
cases.
It may be said further in favor of
this plan of exhibition, that the pre
cious grains of sand prepared upon
the floor for the sharpening of claws,
which might be otherwise spoiled or
bottled as relics, or carried to the
craw of inferior spirits, on the old
fashioned chicken rooster plan, there
to be utilized again, to encourage,
grind out, and propagate pure beer
tub and railroad valor. What shall
be the order attendance, this is anoth
er big question; is it competent for
both sexes of the white folks to turn
out to see this performance, the writ
ings of the Honorable Artemas Ward
would seem to indicate the propriety
of such a course, but he goes the
whole hog, a bull fight with him is
just as pretty as a row between two
Governors; the people of Atlanta
may look for everybody, they are all
coming to this show, there is not a
circus picture posted anywhere in the
State to interfere, and it is hoped that
all the spectators will go properly ca
parisoned and grab for a large slice
while the character of the State is
selling out so cheap.
In a show like this have you any
idea what will be the price of reserv
ed boxes on the opposite side of the
street ? Many of the colored ladies
who are fond of comedies are buying
calico for the occasion, these will bar
gain to furnish the musk and ivory,
and if the back benches and loby can
be supplied with opera glasses at a fair
rent, or even for value received all
cash, our old one eyed people will
crawl out to hear the dying groom of
valor and to see the ship of State once
more out of Quarantine.
Our people are in earnest in this
matter; it won’t do to trifle with
them. It would cause a fight at
home; they are bent on seeing some
thing ; they don’t intend to be disap
pointed in the Atlanta entertainment.
Os course they don’t; they have al
ready prepared, with much loss of
sleep, some three or four thousand
suitable epitaphs, the loss of which
would be a public calamity if these
actors shall fail to provide the proper
place to stick them up.
Another important question is be
ing sprung about the street corners,
looking to the never-to-be-forgotten
commissary supplies. Shall each in
dividual citizen be expected to fur
nish his own cider, ginger-bread and
ground-peas, and turn out on his own
hook, as vulgar people do when they
are going to a hanging? or shall we
hold primary meetings, elect dele
gates to represent us, send up tables,
paper and reporters, as other people
sometimes do in minor matters in
which the moral's and honor of the
State is involved.
This course would doubtless be
preferred by some, as the fight would
then be under a more dignified pro
gramme. We must be personally
present, or have proper representa
tion ; we can’t hazard our interest in
this passage of arms. It may be that
nuncupative wills will be proclaimed
there, in which all the people are in
terested ; as in the case of Cesar so it
may happen again. It will be desir
able also to bottle up for market all
of their last thunder and their dying
words; these last precious words upon
the subject of the Code could now be
engaged at seven pence per dozen;
uponany other subject, after the show
is over, "their words will have to sell
by the cart load as farmers do pump
kins, or by the string, as we buy cat
fish in the spring of the year.
If these reigning Bunk's could
spare the time from the high argu
ment of their controversy to publish
a joint card, suggesting the class from
which they would prefer that these
delegate;? shall come, the citizens
will allow this privilege, and have
the same posted before the bands and
red noses everywhere, and, if need be,
a first-class, medium-size, ilsh-mark
ed herald shall be started to give no
toriety to this fight, and to serve as a
record to bear the character and
names of the Bullies safely down to
posterity.
Delegates, however, might not
manage to squeeze out as many tears
as our roaring Bullies would expect
to see flow from the eyes of a depart
ed constituency, but the ears furnish
ed for the occasion would bo entirely
without objection.
How wise and commendable, how
preciously endearing to th'-ir fellow
citizens, is the eour which the-
Bullies desire the people to prevent
them from taking. Why. they ought
not to be interfered with; is it not
their own little matter, and Live not
the public prints recently been made
to show that the world is too small
for two large, over-grown men to live
in; the ease has been ably argued, 1
and the world must be made bigger
or somebody will get hurt.
The people, however, are quieter
under the hope that the splendid
trades that might be made with the
gentleman on the top of the high
mountain, who offers such grand tele
scopic advantages, nor the prospect of
tearing inio shred- all the striped
cloth in the universe that might be
used for national Hags, nor even the
luxury of walking hereafter in solita
ry triumph upon the great flaunting
constitutional lie, will not allure ei
ther of the parties, or cause the slight
est diversion. Let the fight come off;
the people want it over; their voice
is success to both parties.
Sancho.
Mr. J. A. Hoyt, editor of the An
derson (S. C.) Intelligencer, recently
visited this section of country, and
the following is the result of his ob
servations, which we clip from that
paper:
editorial correspondence.
Allatoona, Ga., July 10,1872.
This place is situated forty miles
northwest of Atlanta, on the W. &
A. R. It., more generally known as
the “State Road,” from the fact that
it was built and is owned by the I
State of Georgia. Allatoona is an
unpretending village, containing on
ly a few famalies, and in the midst of
a" rather sparsely populated commu
nity ; but there are good farming
lands in this section, and rich beds of
iron ore are found within a short dis
tance. It is an important depot,
however, as the numerous trains,
passing almost every hour in the day
and night, procure wood and water
at this station. Formerly, the place :
was thriving as a railroad village,
but the ravages of war destroyed the
business houses and several dwel
lings, and effectually checked its
growth. The depot is romantically
situated at the foot of the Allatoona
Heights, through which the railroad
penetrates, and in this immediate
vicinity fighting took place during
the summer of 1864, when Johhston
retreated before Sherman. We are
told that fourteen hundred soldiers
fell upon the Heights, and the graves
of many were never identified, as the
Con feed rates fell back without com
pleting the work of burying their
dead. Indeed, we met a young man
from Missouri the other day, who
was looking for the grave of his
brother, killed upon the summit of
the ridge adjacent to the railroad cut.
The search was unsuccessful, and the
precise spot where lies the remains of
this gallant soldier will probably re
main forever unknown.
The mineral wealth of this region
is quite attractive, and immense beds
of iron ore are and have been profit
ably worked. An experiment in
gold digging since the war proved a
failure, however, as many enterpris
es of that character are constantly
doing, since men will go further and
use more extraordinary exertions to
mine for the precious of all metals,
ignoring the fact that all around them
oftentimes there are easier sources of
obtaining wealth from the bowels of
the earth. This experiment was in
the interest of Boston capitalists, we
are informed, and from $175,000 to
$200,000 was expended in an almost
fruitless effort to gather glittering
gold.
The farming lands of this section
are rather peculiar. Some of the
ridges are highly productive, not
withstanding the fact that they are
covered almost entirely with slate
rock, which interferes to some extent
with the cultivation of the soil. The
best lands produce a bale of cotton to
the acre, forty bushels of corn, and
fifteen or twenty bushels of wheat.
The bottom lands on the creeks are
highly valuable, easily managed, and
produce wonderfully. Beyond the
Allatoona Heights flows the Etowah
River, and from a slight glimpse ob
fafms'on either side, we are inclined
to think that the river lands are in
ferior to none in the broad country.
Immense fields of waving com are
seen on every side, while elegant
farm houses dot the landscape far as
the eye can reach. These lands
are valued at high figures, and it is i
nothing uncommon to hear the own
ers talk of wanting one hundred dol
lars per acre for their farms. We are
told that forty or fifty miles along
the Etowah there is an unbroken
country, equal in every respect to the
choice lands seen from the railroad
between this point and Cartersville.
Corn and wheat are the principal
crops, although we noticed some line
cotton in the vicinity of the Etowah.
Clover and the grasses flourish in this !
section, and the hay crop is an im
portant item of revenue to the farm- !
er. In a word, there is every evi- !
dence that the most ample provision
is made for the substenance of man
and beast.
C'artersville is eight miles north of
this place, and is the county site of
Bartow county. We had the pleas
ure of spending a day there recently,
and were highly pleased with the ac
tivity and energy of its population.
Formerly, the town was of small
consequence, principally noted as a
depot on the .State Road, and having
no future of promise and importance.
Since the war a different state of
things exist, and for several years
the place has grown steadliy into
favor, and the population numbers
nearly three thousand at this time.
The Court House is a large, splendid
structure, and is a credit to the citi
zens of Bartow. Elegant residences
in various parts of the town mark
the improvement of the last few
years, and quite a number are in
process of erection. The business
houses for the most part are ample
and conveniently arranged, and we
observed several new 7 stores and oth
er buildings intended for business
purposes rapidly approaching com
pletion. The railroad passes through
the heart of town, and the depot is j
in the centre of a large square, on i
the sides of which are located the j
principal stores, hotels, restaurants,
offices, and like buildings. The busi
ness is not confined to the public
square, but is extending in every di- j
rection, and ultimately the various 1
streets intersecting the square will be I
appropriated to the increasing de-!
mands of business. The farmers are
delivering their w heat at this time, ;
and thousands of bushels are daily
shipped from Cartersville. The ship
ments of w'heat aggregate about.three
hundred thousand bushels, w 7 e are
informed, and the busy scene around
the depot reminded us forcibly of the
winter season in Anderson" when
Mr. Fant is kept so busily employed
in receiving and weighing cotton.
The Cartersville & Van Wert Rail- j
road has been completed about twen
ty-two miles, and already penetrates j
a rich iron and coal region, rapidly j
developing the hidden resources of
an unexplored country. Another
railroad is projected from Cartersville
to Gainesville, and should this prove
a reality, we predict a bright future
for the former town. By the way,
the citizens talk of changing the
name from Cartersville to Etow r ah
City, and we suppose that application
will be made to the Legislature, at its
approaching session, to effect the
change.
This county of Bartow, originally
called Cass, has received a large
share of its population from South
Carolina, and familiar names strike
the ear on almost every hand. Es
pecially is this true of Laurens peo
ple, and we had occasion to be im
pressed with the idea on meeting and
recognizing a former citizen of
Laurens, whom w 7 e had not seen for
fifteen years. We met several ac
quaintances during our short stay in
Cartersville, who were formerly resi
dents of South Carolina, and all of
them are highly delighted with this
section.
A w 7 ord about the W. & A. R- R,,
to which we have alluded several
times. Iking owned by the State,
this valuable property has entered i
more or 1- into the politics of Geor
gia for a number of year?, as the pat
ronage is considerable. The road
runs from Atlanta to Chattanooga, as
the most of our readers are aware,
and is 138 miles long. During the
reign of that illustrious patriot, Gov.
Bullock, wlio has “left his country
tor his country's good,” the State i
Road was a thorough political ma-'
chine, and ostensibly furnished em-:
ployment for any number of Radical
satellites, who proved true to the in
stincts of that particular genus, and
made a good thing out of it, by
pocketing the earnings of the Road
in various ways and perpetrating
divers swindkss, as is their wont.
Under the peculiar management, it
is no wonder that the road went down
as a public institution, the track be
came in bad condition, the rolling
stock dilapidated, and insecurity felt
by persons who were compelled to
travel over it. Finally, when a
Democratic Legislature was coming
into power, a company of capitalists
offered to lease the Road for twenty
years, paying to the State an annual
rental of £}<>o,ooo in monthly install
ments, in agreeing to turn ‘over the
road in good condition at the expira
tion of the lease. The proposition
was accepted, and the lessees took
charge of the r oad, elec-ting ex-Gov
ernor Joseph E. Brown as the Presi
dent. The lessees have now controll
ed the Road for eighteen months, j
and besides paying the rent prompt
ly, the track has been put in good re
pair and the rolling stock thoroughly
overhauled, until now the road is in
as fine condition to transact its im- ]
mense business as at any time in its
history. Trains run with regularity,
scarcely an accident ever occurring, j
and the vast freights are transported
over the Road with celerity and dis- j
patch. Four or five freight trains of
twenty to thirty cars each, even in
this dull season, are passing each way
with through'freight, besides the reg
ular trains for way freight. Three
passenger trains, up and down, every
twenty-four hours, transport an im
mense number of individuals, who
are provided with every possible
comfort and accommodation. Brief
ly, the road is splendidly managed,
and though it is understood that the
lessees have not realized any clear
gain up to this time, but on the con
trary have expended a large sum of
money over and above the earnings
to place the road in first-class condi
tion, there is every prospect that the
lease will ultimately yield handsome
dividends. In our judgment, the
lease is a beneficial arrangement for
the State, if it does not bring profit
to the lessees, and we are surprised
to learn that efforts are making to re
voke the contract, which would
again place the road under the manip
ulation of trading politicians. But
this is a question for Georgians, and
we are not disposed to meddle with
their business further than to state
the facts.
Politically, there appears an uni
versal sentiment among the people of
Georgia, and that is strongly in favor
of Greeley and Brown. At least, we
have failed to meet an opponent of
that ticket, although there are some
adherents of Gnjnt and an occasional
follower of Toombs and Stephens,
only that we have not come across
any of either class. Persons of life
long Democratic persuasion and
others of recent Republican faith are
alike enthusiastic in support of the
Chappaqua farmer. The latter class,
lately so-called Radicals when that
party ruled the State, are seizing the
opportunity to renew their alliance
with the Democratic masses, from
whom they flew off at a tangent a
few years ago. One of this class re
marked to us, the other day, that
he was surprised at certain gentle
men in South Carolina not taking ad
vantage of the Greeley movement to
regain their former popularity with
the white people. But it makes con
siderable difference, when we consid
er the Radical majority in South Car
olina and the Democratic majority in
Georgia. People who take advan
tage of political opportunities are
apt to be governed by majorities the
world over, and thus the time-servers
in South Carolina are desperately in
love with Grant.

Read the following certificate:
Wkst Point, ga., Sept. 16,1570.
J/, w->. Pemberton, Taylor A Vo., Atlanta, Ga.;
My daughter was taken on the 25th day of
June, 1863, w’ith what was supposed to be acute
Rheumatism, and was treated for the same with
no success. In March, following, pieces of bone
began to work out of the right arm. and contin
ued to appear till all the bone lrom the elbow to
the shoulder joint came. Many pieces ol bone
came out of the right foot and leg. The case
was then pronounced one of White Swelling.
After having been confined to her bed abont six
years, and tlie case was considered hopeless, I
was induced to try Dr. Pemberton’s Compound
Extract of Stillingiu, and was so well satisfied
with its effects that 1 have continued the use of
it until the present.
Mx* daughter was confined to her bed about
six years before she sat up or even turned over
without help. She now sits up all day, and
sews most of her time—has walked across tlie
room. Her general health is now good, and 1
believe she will, as her limbs gam strength,
walk well. 1 attribute her recovery, with the
blessing of God, to the use of your invaluable
medicine.
With gratitude, I am yours truly,
W. B. BLANTON.
