Adding Insult to Injury.
Docs Mullock, tho man who writes
himself Governor of aoorgitt, intend to
iiiBult tho peoplo of tho State? It
would soem so, or he would nover linvo
nominated tho perfidious tugrate aud
treacherous domngogua,Joo.E. Brown,
to tho Older Justiceship of Georgia—
The representatives of tho people In
tho Legislature, rejected this vile crea
ture for U. S. Senator j but notwith
standing this Mullock forces him upon
tho Stato as the head of her Judiciary.
This is too bad, and it is a crime ou
tho part of tho so-called Governor for
which tho peoplo of the Stato will not
soon forgive 1dm. Ho know that Joe
Drown was distasteful to our people—
that they did not want him for their
Senator, much less their Chief Justico;
hut in tho face of this potestation ho
forces thorn to tako this had man as
Chief Justice of tho Stato, thus delib
erately insulting them. Truly, this is
adding insult to injury.
Tho Atlanta Constitution, which pa
per is a faithful sentinel on tho demo
cratic wntchtower, informs us that
thero woro hut fifteen genuine, stmon
pure, incorruptible democrats in tho
Senate, who could not bo bought over
to tho support of the traitorous Drown
for tho Chief Justiceship—tile rest all
voting aye I It is needless for us to
call upon tho Editor of tho Constitu
tion to give tho 'nameB of thoBo who
thus betrayed the trust reposed in them
by their constituents, for wo know he
will do this if ho can ascertain who
they aro, and they fail to explain their
conduct in this matter satisfactorily to
their constituents and tho country.-
This wrong upon Georgia was perpe
trated by the Senate in “secret ses
sion.’^ Wo say lot every so-called dem
ocrat be held up to public scorn and
contempt, who so far forgets his obli
gations and love of country as to act
with a party that is seeking to destroy
Republican liberty. Tho people of tho
Stato ought to know them, and wherev
er onols found ho should ho branded
with infamy and shunned by all honest
men.
Grooloy Doubtful of tho Bosult.
Horace Greeley of tho Tribune has
issued an “Appeal to tho Republicans
of the Empire State” (Now York),
in whicli ho implores them to “ organ
ize” ifithoy would not' suffer defeat,
interspersing his article with inveo-
tives and lies against the democracy
and their candidates. Greeley is al
ways well posted,and tills noto of alarm
from him—this ery to “ organize’’—is
a healthy sign, for It shows that Hor
ace snuffs tho “ dangers of defeat in
every hreozo that bears tho shouts of
the populace for Seymour aud Blair.
Tho old fellow, judging from tho tono
of his “ Appeal," is'gottiug “ shaky in
the knees” about the success of Grant
1nN.*York,and with evident symptoms
of distress, calls lustily on the white
negroes of that Stato to “organizo I”
The whole artiele, notwithstanding
Greeley trios to put on a vory hopeful
fipnt, shows unmistakably that ho
not only has fears of Now York going
for democracy, but of enough other
States to defeat Grant. This call of
the Tribune to “ organize," which has
been taken up by overy Mongrol paper
all over the land, looks encouraging-
it presages tho defeat of Mongrellsm J
’While hundreds of mammoth demo
cratic ratification meetings have bceu
held Bince the nomination of Seymour
and Diair, and aro still being held, no
where have tho Mongrels been able to
get up a single popular demonstration
that did not more resemble a funeral
than political jubilation; and well may
Greeley and the Mongrel press cry out
“ organize I” organizo 1” for never since
the days of “hard cider and log cab
ins” has such enthusiasm been exhib
ited by the people as is manifested for
Seymour, Blair and Democracy.
Tho rascally Mongrels are bndly dis
organized and expeot defeat, as is plain
ly evidenced by the closing extract in
Greeley’s “Appeal,” which rends ns
follows:
“We do not boI!ovc,nor wish others to believe,
(ten. Grant’s election certain. Wo. would Iravu
every one realizo that the clccUon Is not yet de
cided—that the Republican! can win if they
work, but must loose if they are'heedless or apa
thetic. Wo must liepe to carrv Pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana, in October, but by entail ma
jorities, such as will animate t.otli parties to more
determined efforts in .November. Our Indians
friends talk of a large majority in that State; we
t-lutil he content with u am ad ouo. We do sure
ly hope to carry tide State, but know well Uiat
bald work Is required to do it. Friend* of Grant
and Colfax 1 do not bclluve we slut.! win easily;
tor, without atronuous cflort, we should not win

victory ia within your power.’ 1

Tho Herald Interprets the Signs of
Tho Now York Ilerald sees in the
immense majority given in Kentucky
to Governor Stevenson tho'slgn or a
great popular cliango that will proba
bly sweep radicalism and its candi
dates out of sight, ami Dennett, alwny b
desirous to he on the strong sido, has
come out for Seymour and Blair. Ho
says Hint tlia increased majority In
Kentucky and the result of tho Juno
election in Oregon in favor of llto Dem
ocracy, are “ Btratvs wltioli show how
tho wind blows”— hence bo trims IiIb
sails to catch tho popular breeze. Tho
Herald has always been regarded as a
very good political wentliofcock, and
its support of tho (lemourntto candi
dates shows vory plainly Hint Dennett
is satisfied tho Democratic Party is
fast becoming tho popular party, ovon
at tho North, and will lie ilia winning
party in November In his issue of
tho 13th ho sayB tho Mongrel party, by
its corruption in office, Its derange
ment of tho machinery of government,
its unwarranted mid weighty taxatiou
of tits people that has borne cominerco
and labor to tho earth, its system of
reconstruction by which social ruin is
about to he brought upon ten States,
are crimes that stamp Mongrellsm
as “ utterly damnable before tho peo
ple.” In this opinion Bcunctt is right,
and we trust that ho will ntono for his
past radical sins by working for tho
triumph of democratic principles, front
now until November, ns ho never work
ed before. We make the following
pointed and truthful extract from Beu-
nett’s “ turning over” article:
Will the people longer have patience with a
party that haaauch a history I This la tho qura-
tiott of the hour. Ia there any (ear In our future

Rumored Withdrawal of Grant.
We see a telegraphic despatch from
Washington, going the rounds of the
papers, to the effect that Gen. Grant
has determined, since traveling in tho
West and witnessing tho tremendous
tide that is setting lu for the demo
cratlc nominees in that quarter, to
withdraw from the canvass. Wo do
not believo tho story, though it may
bo true—indeed, it would bo tho most
sensible act of the Butcher's life were
ho to da this, for, judging from pres
ent indications, thero is no possible
chance for him to rcaclt the Wliiti
House. Ho will, wo bollevc, ho tho

Atlanta, Ga., August 18, 1808.
Dear Citizen,—Upon ranohing tilts
city to-day, as an observer of tho Rad
ical pow-wow, I.enst a glance up White
hall, Peachtree,, Alabama and other
Streets. To my nstonislimont not more
than tho ordinary nttmhor of peoplo
seemed to ha moving through tlioso
streets. To avcid a more offensive
cffiuvln, I lighted a cigar, and iiudor

made my way to tho Capitol square.
Good Heavens, wliat a commentary I
There were congregated about four
thousand negroes, mid not exceeding
two hundred white men. Tito negroes,
embracing every sltado of negro col-
or—every imaginable variety of phys
ical deformity—every possible fnoinl
manifestation of-stupidity, vleo; ig
norance nnd idiocy,arrayed in suelt fan
tastic gttrbs ns only African taste can
invent—were variously employed:—
About half were sauntering around
cako and watermelon carts, and oxer-
clsittg themselves in tho only line in
wlilcit tho African race has ever devel
oped any special talent—gormandizing.
Tito other half of tho crowd having
satisfied, or not having the money with
wltioli to satisfy their apetites, were
having their baser passions ministered

however, lie tiled to sncrlflco that pure

Wnlker and MoOny. Tho Sennto it
was thought would not -confirm any

head must corno off. Ho is the victim
of Brown’s perfidy and tronehery—lie

whom lie regarded Ills best friend.

Tlte negro procession this morning
was composed of two wliito members of
the Legislature—we believe from Pulas
ki count y,ami six hundred nnd seventy-
two negroes. Near the head of tho col

Grant—Gen. Hiram Mummy Grant
-the Mongrol candidate for President
(we presumo our renders have heard
of him)—is traveling in the West, nnd
nt Borne places he is received with a
few, a very few, demonstrations of
pleasure, nnd others ho passes quietly
through, unrecognized, “unhonorod,
unsung I” Sometimes ha is serenaded
and of course tho. “ great reticent ” 1ms
to say something, and that something
said is the same thing said by him ev
erywhere ho hss attempted to open ills
mouth. Ho always commences his
great speech of a dozen llnss (he 1ms
but.oiie) “thusly:” “Itgives mo grant
pleasure, fellow-citizens, to meet you,"
&o., &o., winding up by informing tho
people that ho expects “at somo fu
ture day to locate" in their town or
city, as the case may be. Hiram is a
funny man, truly. But we don’t un
derstand how ho oxpects to manage
tills “locating” arrangement. Doob ho
think of . turning Mormon nnd going
into the plurality wife business ? Ho
certainly does, or ho would not “ give
out” that he expects to “locato" nt
so many different plnccs.
That “Dlmoorat” Won’t Do 1
Said a wall-known Democrat, “ I havo about

ed witli the immense assemblage of

semblud in this city on the 23d of Ju

Goo. D. Prentice says: If thero tie
a solitary human within our ronolt, who,
by somo whimsical hook or crook - of
heart or brain, lias got on tho wrong
sido of the lino of battle—piirticularly
if bo bad boon an old Whig or Union
man, ami considers it a sort of duty to
go against tho Democrats—wo entreat
him lo pause and reflect upon what lie
is about to do. Why should lie go
witli the Radicals; and wliat reason
ctin lie offer for not going witli tho Dem
ocrats ? All tho issues over which wo
used to fight nro dead. Tito Domo-
cratio party itself is reorganized after
a division which completely destroyed
nnd recreated it. In I860 it fought
within itself as resolutely turWo ever
fought against- it. Times linvo chang
ed ; man ltavo changed; issues have
chnngoil. Clay, if ho were living now,
would be a Democrat. Webster could
be nothing else. All tlte reputable
old-lino Whigs that rornnin nro Demo
crats, from Fillmore to John Bell; nnd
God knows, if these can afford it, there
is no ono of their followers in tho by
gone times who lias any exettse to hold
back.—Prentice.
De Pbofundis,—Wasliintrnc, Grant’s
keeper, is thus reported, prior to the
ttdjournmcut of Congress:
“He desired an adjournment at the
earliest possible! moment, for if they
wont on nt the rate they wore going,
tiio Government would have neither
money nor credit left.”
A-mi yet, a repetition.of roguery is
considered by some moil “the only
hope of the country."

“ Tho American House of Represen
