NOKTH GEORGIA CITIZEN. J. T. WIU * MAN, Editor. DALTON. CllCOitOIA : Thursday August 20, 180S. MTIOXAL DKlIOUtATlC TICKET, roil MESIDENTi HON. HORATIO SEYMOUR, OF NEW YORK. 4* ron Y10K-FIIE81MSNT: Gen. Frank. P. Blair, or MISSOURI. 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 ut alt.

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 that should move tho people to truat this party again even dosplto tho tburful ehanee that it may continue tho same deatruclive career that has al ready been ao disastrous to the national prosper ity I Cun any other parly Inlliotupun us evils worse limit those we now sutler ns the consequen ce of radical tnlsrelol Does tlis name of Grant furnish any guarantee for tho future of tho Radi- calif. Tho people ore not ready to behove it.— Uo may provo capable; lie may not, and At ia n time when the people cannot trust their future to suelt a chance. Therefore tho doom of radi calism scema to ho burned Into tho popular brain, its history la auoli that tho poople will net uual it agalu on any terms. 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 worst whipped man that over ran for tho Presidency | and this tho Mongrels sec nnd feel, ns Is clourly shown by wliat tholr editors and speakers say Tboy aro calling upon their party ev cry where to “roily," to “organizebut “ nhrry” rally, “narry" organize, will they effect, or ut least if they attempt it the thing is spiritless, dead, as wit ness tho corn-shucking “ rally” of tho Afrique Party at Atlanta on tho 18th so graphically penogrn plied by our correspondent lu to-day’s paper.

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 tho kindly protection Of tobaooo smoko, 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 of the mo tors should occasionally respect him, and to got what exemption front mer ited obltquy tho robe of tho departed Lumpkin might sfcoitro for hint—prov ed traitor to otto of his host friends, Judge Wnlker, of your city. First, however, lie tiled to sncrlflco that pure nnd great jurist, Hiram Warner. Tho first nominations for tho Supremo Court; wltioli wore sent In, wore Brown, Wnlker and MoOny. Tho Sennto it was thought would not -confirm any Supremo J edges, a list of which did not ctnbraco Warner. Hence, Wnlkor’s head must corno off. Ho is the victim of Brown’s perfidy and tronehery—lie was Blaln not only in tiio bouse of Ills friends, hut by tho hand of llto man whom lie regarded Ills best friend. While Judge Walker’s political eourso is not admired by many, yot ho It. s trinity friends in both parties, who know that as a politician ha lias not harmed tho country, and who can rendiiy-OXCnso Homo of his reeput po litical views, especially when it is re membered that ho has boen all his life a consistent Union mnu, nnd who roc- ognizo his ability and integrity ns a Jurist. It is nlnio8t universally believ ed that lie lias been grossly wronged nnd betrayed. Ho had not llto same capacity lor dirty work that JieOay possessed mid had frooly oxereisod.— Ilenco MoCny must bo clevatod to, though Walker bo degraded front, tho Supremo bench. Nearly overy one from tho Cherokee Circuit, with whom I have spokon, ex press satisfaction at (tho success of Col. C. E.

While tho Colonel has gone off after falso gods politically, ho is regarded liy all as nn honest gentloman, who will faithfully discharge his official duties. * Go P—Tax- 0, Shame Where is Thy BlushP 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 „ , .Utah 'there was a triumphal,car, enno- to, nt either end of tlte Capitol, by two pied with tho NntioitaP flag, anti ornn- Grant “Looating.” 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 mado up my mind tb vote lor Grant. I aan’t stand the disunion crew wlilcit Scjmuur is garn ering about lilni.”—Atlanta Era. Your “dimocrat" woit’t do, Bnrtl— he never was one of tho “simon pure,” or he could never “fail into lino” witli the miserable crew of carpet-baggers, scalawags and niggers, who are steer ing tho “Ship of State” to certain ruin. Tako him by all means—we don’t want him I Democratic company is too pure and patriotic for him—ho could find uo congcninlty of spirit among tlioso honest contenders for constitutional liberty—Mongrelfem is his placu!—so take him iu “out of tbo cold," Bnrd I The Radicals banged Wlrz, the janitor of An- accomplished experts in the scicnc—catering ^o low passions, thnt licuT'-fattened on Radial rotten ness during tho’last two years. At tho onst^nd of the Capitol, Joseph E. Brotyi V(n8 “ huranging ” about one hundred wliito men (?) and tfkarly ono thousand negroes. Ills hack was turn ed to t|j<H>laOk part of tho crowd and ills face mho enviable ono hundred.— Wliat ho HKd I do not know or care. At intervals, by some expression of Joe’s back (his back is not more ex pressionless Limn his face), or by soma prcooncertcd signal from soma bell wether, the negroes raised corn-shuek- ing yells. At the west end of the Cap itol Aaron Alpeorla Bradley was grin ning nnd vociferating in Ills own pecu liar demoniacal Btyle. The diabolism of tills Apo’s expression of,face, voice and sentiment, rather, fiendish instinct, utterly beggars lnnguago. I will not attempt to describe tlte beast nor,note wlmt lie Bald when lie bpencddtfe mouth and spalto. Said a gentleman to me, “ wliat an argument for Seymour and Blairl” Salt! another, “ would to God, that tho Intelligent people of the North could look upon tho scene.” Another ejaculated, “ alas, my country I” An other, “ ir this party remains in power I despair of tho Republic.” Contrast ed witli the immense assemblage of intelligent men nnd women, who as- semblud in this city on the 23d of Ju ly, and in good order listened to Geor gia’s most gifted orntors, this affair sinks below contempt. Tito ono was Democracy, tiio oilier Southern Radi calism. Brick Pomeroy illustrates tiio contrast between tlte two parlies in his last issue, by nn intellectual Caucasian lte(td representing Democracy, and a grinning, idiotic Congo, representing Radicalism. As llto parties stand In tho South, tho picture is true to life, nnd those wlto saw tiio proud Demo cratic rally here on the 23d of July, and tb-duy lmvo been sickened by this thfeernblo block mass of jgltornnee, stupidity nnd Btojlidity, can appreciate Brick’s picture—look upon it nnd in tensify your disgust. Tho lower branch of the Legislature has stood adjourned since Friday last. Previous to adjournment they passed about thirty bills and resolutions, and killed about eighty. In this branch of the Legislature about three hundred hills lmvo been introduced. 1 will not now mention tho character of tlte bills acted upon, as they must he concurred in by. the Senate, nnd receive the. Ex ecutive aunctlon before they become Jaws. The Senate lias been employed mainly jn putting on record tho infamy of Hie Radical party. First the Congo , boing a penitentiary convict, it bold office under the Cousti- „„„„ tt’..™...,.11. I dertouvllle, find noimhstcd Joe Brown, of Ocor- awag to 018 grate. I liottv table dts-1 gla, the landlord of th<*phtce, tor the United Ftnlrs iinctlcn, that I Senate. Bradley, could not ration of Georgia. It took about ono week to eject him from tlte Seunte— to which body ho lmd been returned as n most appropriate representative of Radicalism. After lie had been ejected, another Congo, wlto looltB to lmvo been but recently imported from among the cannibals of Africa, liowlod and screamed and made hideous noises in behalf of life slaughtered comrade for the spneo of three days—for wltioli savage cntoitainment the State of Georgia will pay not far from ilvo thou sand doilarB. At tho conclusion of this wholo mnlter the Sennto robbed tiio man elected nccording to lnw to represent the 1st Senatorial District, of his sent^impiy because lie was a Demo crat. Ibis same Senate Voted thatTIajn. McWhorter, who elected himself by Inking fifty-five voles from tho ballot- box, in ltis own parlor, nnd ono Rich ardson from Dawson county, who swears that.ho was not. elected, nnd wlto was elected lty the taking of twen ty-three votes from tbo ballot-box, which manipulation was performed by oite notorious Col. Jolt list on, who tv ill testify that lie did tlte dirty deed,— this sumo Senate, I any, has voted Hint this man McWhorter and this Rich ardson, shall keep their seats. If you have lnnguago to characterize suelt conduct yonr vocabulary is more ex tensive than mine. mented witli numerous small lings and llto names of Grant nnd Colfrx. There were in.the car thirty-seven (supposed to be) wliito girls, representing tho sov- ernl States, each dressed in white, and waving a miniature flag. This featqro of tho demonstration in spired universal disgust, and a shudder of indignation manifested itself in mi-, diblo expressions of “Slmmo, shame,” from tlioso on the side-walks. Whoso he.artlcss : who so lost to the instincts of race nnd decency, na to require their littlo innocent daughters to do thnt wltioli thpy themselves were ashamed to do? Fathers were aslinmcil to be seen in the hideous picture,and yet wil ling that their daughters ahould make up, the foreground. Good heavens I wliat a commentary on tho baseness to which radicalism drags Us votaries i “Whose-bnlldran are they ?" invol untarily esoapod the qitivoiTng lips of th6 outraged spectators. For very Bltatne, answers was repressed. Pride of raco, rcBpect for color, and sympa thy for innocence forbade tiio disclo sure of a single tiamo. But 0, the burning, blistering, damning shame ‘ wliat monsters of corruption and infa my must be tho parents who would thus prostitute tlte tendorost and fair est. Yet hold ; possibly wo were mis taken in tlte cliuractor of these young nyraplts. A gay youth declared Hint ono of them was his pot doxy, and oth- ors were supposed to bo old enough to accommodate the coarsest libertine in tho ranks of tlioso who wore glorying in their abasement; and it may lie, too, that somo of them were otlierializod by a liberal tincture of the sanguine de. Afrique. Tbo following letter discloses the Radical Idea of the infernal programme, and stamps tiio whole proceeding and the parties connected with it, with tho seal of inefiiiccabie infamy, and crime beyond lititnnn utterance. . “ Mr. Editor: I- remarked to-day on seeing the little girls packed into a wagon to bqhauled around town in tho negro procession, that it was a shame.

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."

To this con dition lias Radicnl rulo reduced the na tion. Tito civil service of our government under radical rule costs'. $lo|tlft0,909 per year more thnii that of England.'
