Ninth Congressional District:
Hon. 33. HE. Hill.
Vote the above ticket next Tuesday.
Go to the polls Tuesday, the 7th,
and vote for Tilden, Hendricks and
Hill.
Let every Democrat lay down his
plow, shovel and hoe, next Tuesday,
and go to the polls and vote for a
change of government.
Tilden as President of the United
States; Colquitt as Governor of Geor
gia, and Hampton as Governor of
South Carolina! Wouldn’t this make
times better?
Atlanta editors have bad but little to
say about Madame Rentz’s minstrels.
Wo suppose the cause of their silence
on the subject, is that none of them
went to the show. We didn’t think
they would go.
Northan Cross Jona has returned
from his trip to the big show at
Philadelphia. He is now prepared
with statistics to show how the ex
penses of such exhibitions could have
been reduced, if he had been elected
Governor.
Every Democrat in Georgia should
be prepared to rally around the polls
next Tuesday. The party of Peace,
Civil Law aud Iteform is about to
achieve a great victory, and everybody
should take a hand and contribute to
the grand result.
Governor Smith, at Augusta, said:
“Let us be cautious; let us be prudent.
The bravest is he who can patiently
submit to wrong. Take it all. Bide
your time. It will come. Bear all
things; endure all things; hope for all
things, and be sure to vote.”
General John B. Gordon delivered a
stirring speech in Charleston, S. C.,
last Monday night, to seven thousand
men, among them fifteen hundred ne
groes. The whole State is ablaze with
enthusiasm, and it is almost certain
that Hamption will be elected Gover
nor; but it is thought that Hayes will
carry the electoral vote of the State.
Mr. Tilden is gaining strength every
day. Even Republicans—and the best
informed of them, too—concede this-
The prospect now is that in this State
his majority will be very large. Indeed
this State is now so safe that speakers
in the campaign can well be spared for
quarters where they are needed. There
seems to be no reasonable doubt that
Samuel J. Tilden will be our next
President.—New York Sun, 30th ult.
Voters for President next week
should bear the following law in mind
as to how the ballot should be printed
or written. A failure to vote in accor
dance will result in the loss of such
votes: The names of all the electoral
candidates must be put on each ballot
—leaving out those of the alternates—
and then add the name of the candi
dates for Congress for the districts in
which the ballot is cast.
It now really looks as if Tilden and
Hendricks would be elected. Every
indication points in that direction.
Tne people North as well as South
are heartily sick of the present
regime. But it will not do for us to
be too hopeful. The cry of a “Solid
South” will deter many good men at
the North from voting the Democratic
ticket, Many good men there fear us,
and fear to trust the party we act with,
and all the bad hate us. If we succeed,
let us be thankful; but if we fail, let
us not be downcast.
Ex-Gov. Joseph E. Brown, after a
three months’ trip North, returned to
Atlanta, last Sunday, and was inter
viewed by a Constitution roporter on
Monday. The Governor is of opinion
that Tilden will be elected, but says
the election will be close. He con
versed with hundreds of people, and
says that if Grant’s South Carolina
proclamation had not been issued, he
thinks Hayes might have been elected,
despite the Democratic victory in In
diana; but as it is, he feels confident
that the balancing vote has gone over
to Tilden. Good enough.
Democrats to the Polls.
He that is not for us is against us.
There is no half way ground. The
Democrat who stays away from the
polls on next Tuesday, gives a half a
vote to Hayes. Georgia ought to give
a hundred thousand majority for Til
den and reform. She will do it, if
every Democrat will vote. In the
olden time every citizen felt that he
was accountable to some extent for
the character of his government.—
Every Georgian ought to feel so to
day. The old Roman maxim was vox
populi, vox dei —the voice of the people
is the voice of God. The maxim was
true. The voice of the people is the
voice of God. The people are always
right. When they all vote the best
man is always elected. But when the
bone and sinew of the land, the farm
ers, become careless about going to the
polls, and neglect to vote, leaving the
selection of their officers to the profes
sional politicians and the dead beats
about the towns, the best men are not
always elected. Hence every Demo
crat, however remote from the polls,
should vote, and not only vote himself,
but see to it that his neighbors vote.
The happiness of our children’s chil
dren depends upon it. If Grantism
gets another four years lease of power
the liberties of the American people
are gone, and the very form of our
government will be changed. It is now
fast becoming a centralized despotism.
The army is used to overawe the peo
ple at the polls; the great bulwark of
our liberty, habeas corpus, is disre
garded; the duly elected representa
tives of the people are expelled from
their halls of legislation at the point
of the bayonet; the Constitution of the
fathers is set at naught aud a “higher
law” is inaugurated. For all of these
evils there is but one remedy. The
people, those who fight the battles and
pay the taxes of the country, must rise
up in their majesty and again take con
trol of their government.
This they can do, if they will. If
they will do it, the best government
ever instituted by man will be restored
in all its pristine purity and beneficence
to us and our children. If they will
not, then the evils of which we now
complain are mere trifles compared
with the outrages we will be called
upon to endure during another four
years of Radical rule. The South is
now an Ireland, but if Hayes is elected
she will become a Poland, dismembered
and down trodden.
The Contrast.
Tuesday, November the 7th, will be
to Americans the most eventful day in
the last hundred years. On July the
4th, 1776, the nation was born. On
November .the 7th, 1876, it will die or
be regenerated. The two armies are
being marshaled, and on that day the
decisive battle will be fought. On the
one hand is arrayed the Democratic
host, under that good old flag first un
furled to the breeze by the greatest
statesman of this or any other country,
Thomas Jefferson. On the other is the
Radical army, marching under Mor
ton’s crimson banner the bloody
shirt. The one is the party of the
people—the party which accords equal
and exact justice to all, and requires
honesty, capacity and fidelity of all
public servants. The other is the
party of hate and of plunder, of lying
and villainy.
Under the rule of the one the coun
try has always prospered, and the peo
ple of all classes have been happy.
Under the other the country has been
impoverished, our commerce has been
destroyed, our manufactures have lan
guished, and dishonesty and official
corruptipn have run riot in the land.
The nation is loaded down with a debt
of two thousand millions of dollars,
and trade clogged with a system of
tariffs which deprives all but the rich
of every luxury and many of the com
forts of life.
The Democratic party when in power
has always brought prosperity to the
country and happiness to the people;
the Republican party has brought dis
grace and ruin upon the country, and
misery and want upon the people.
On next Tuesday every freeman in
the nation will be called upon to align
himself with one of these parties,
either with the party of plunder and
corruption, or the party of peace, fra
ternity and honesty. Is there a white
man in Georgia who can hesitate a
moment ? If there is, he is either a
madman, or he has not stopped to
think what his duty is. The one party
has hitherto given us peace and pros
perity, and promises them again. The
other has given us war, devastation
and beggary, and promises us nothing
better.
The man who votes for Hayes votes
for a continual ion of the ruin which
now envelopes the country. He who
votes for Tilden votes for a return to
prosperity and the methods of peace.
Let Tilden be the watchword—l,soo
the majority in Hall county.
Governor Chamberlain may write
and telegraph letters by the hundred
now, but he can no longer impose up
on the country as to the real state of
things in South Carolina, especially in
the face of the testimony of the repre
sentative men of all churches and par
ties in South Carolina, and whether
he is elected or declared Governor or
not, he is henceforth a dead man, mor
ally and politically slain by his own
hand.—Baltimore Sun.
The registration in New York city
is completed. About one hundred and
eighty-three thousand names are on
the lists. This is an increase of 38,000
since last year. I
Our New York Letter.
New York, October 28, 1867.
MONEY STAKED ON THE ELECTIONS.
All through this canvass there has
been an unusual amount of money
staked upon the results. On the Oc
tober States there was a very lively
contest between the two tides as to
who should control the pools.
This practice is no doubt very im
moral; but even in the good old times
our fathers were wont to bet coats,
hats, overcoats, boots and suits of
clothes upon their favorite candi
dates.
After the nominations of the respec
tive parties, the betting fraternity in
clined strongly towards the Republican
side; but for the last month there has
been a constant reaction, and it has
now culminated in the almost univer
sal refusal of the Republicans to bet
upon their candidates, either for the
Presidency or for the Governorship
of the State of New York. The odds
last night were 100 to 80 in favor of
Tilden, and 100 to 40 that Tilden
would carry the State of New York.—
Thiß is particularly noticeable, because
the Republican Ring politicians of this
city, the disciples of Weed, Morgan,
and the associates of Mr. Sheridan,
Shook and others, whose main voca
tion it is to make money out of their
judgment about elections, have great
confidence in the indications afforded
by the pools; aud if they are beaten
by their own standard so long before
the day of election, their defeat will
prove to be disastrous in the extreme,
and they cannot complain if they are
judged by the standard they choose.—
These and other indications lead one
to the conclusion that this State will
give the Democratic nominees a ma
jority of at least 70,000.
SOUTHERN CLAIMS.
As an indication of the effect of
Governor Tilden’s war-claim letter,
the article in the Springfield Republi
can of October 25th is noticeable.—
The position of that, journal as the
most prominent independent daily of
the United States, gives great force to
its utterances on questions of the can
vass, because it has a wide clientage
among those doubtful voters whose
suffrages may determine the result,
and are greedily sought by both sides.
That article declares that Gov. Tilden’s
letter “will remove the objections of
many voters to his election, and that
it will soften the sorrows of others at
his success.” The article says, also,
that, ‘the public will rejoice over the
letter, because it settles in his favor all
phrases of the Southern question, as
far as he, as President, or his adminis
tration, is concerned.’
The importance of such an admis
sion from this source cannot be over
estimated, because it is conclusive tes
timony that the independent voters of
the country will give their suffrage to
the Democratic ticket.
WHAT THE CLAIMS AMOUNT TO.
The war claims bugbear amounts to
this—that the ring of which ex-Seere
tary Belknap w'as the center, which
bought up all these claims in the South
in 1872, is very much annoyed with the
Democratic party because it rejected
the Southern war claims.
The South does not want them al
lowed, and has no interest in them.—
The Republican 43d Congress caused
six millions of them to be paid. The
Democratic House of the 44th Con
gress rejected them whenever presen
ted, and approved only $74,000 in all,
that were just claims of loyal citizens
still in the hands of original owners.—
The defeat of the Radical Claims Ring
made them desperate, hence their at
tacks upon the Democratic nominess
with this false cry. The letter of Gov.
Tilden, and the general exposure of
the truth as to the ownership of Rings,
has completely discomfitted their plot.
THE VICE-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES.
No one has ever thought of compar
ing Wheeler favorably with Hendricks.
Wheeler, the railroad jobber at home,
the false trustee of the stockholders of
the Ogdensburg and St. Lawrence
Railroad, the compliant President of
the Pacific Railroad Committee, who
carried his complacency far enough
to play into the hands of the
land-grabbing Rings, is not worthy of
mention in the same connection as
Hendricks, who for many years has
been promine Lt among those worthy
of the suffrages of the citizens of the
United States for the highest office in
their gift; whose integrity is as un
questionable as his ability, and who in
all his buy official life has nover fail
ed to command the respect of his op
ponents as universally as the support
of his adherents. Both Tilden and
Hendricks are noted as great Gover
nors. Hayes is noted as being a small
Governor, who effected no particular
change in the affairs of his State and
accomplished nothing beyond the or
dinary routine of office in that capaci
ty, as was the case also in his Congres
sional career. A bold, bad man like
Blaine, if nominated, would have had
more strength perhaps than Hayes,
because, just before an election, when
it was too-late to have contradicted an
untruth, he would have promulgated
some audacious lie, which might have
had effect in his favor, but, of this
Hayes is incapable, not because too
virtuous, but because too weak; and
Wheeler’s position as convicted of in
fidelity to public trusts, prevents his
reappearance in this canvass.
Occasional.
The Cincinnati Enquirer of Satur
day says that private advices from the
Pacific Coast concede Oregon and Cal
ifornia to the Democracy in Novem
ber. Nevada is regarded as doubtful.
Northeastern Extension.
The amount of business now done
by the Southern division of the North
eastern Railroad shows the importance
of continuing it to the Northern ter
minus, and securing a connection
with the Great West via Knoxville.
The greatest obstacle in the way is
the construction of that portion of the
road which lies in North Carolina.—
There is so small a portion of that
State directly interested in it, that it
will be very difficult to obtain State
aid, and the people of that section of
the State like ourselves, are poor.—
Outside aid, therefore, is greatly need
ed. There are three railroads in this
State which would be benefitted to a
large extent by the completion of the
route to Knoxville—we mean the Air
line, the Georgia, and the Central
Railroad, provided it will extend its
Eatonton branch to this city.
Our road and its connections, when
once completed, will become one of
the most important thoroughfares in
the South. The freight over it would
give profitable employment to half a
dozen ordinary lines of railway, and
this, too, without material injury to
the State Road, which will always do
a large business.
It is the part of wisdom to provide
for the early extension of the North
eastern Road, and we trust that it will
be pushed forward with energy.—Ath
ens Watchman.
The Fire Fiend.
On last Friday morning about four
o’clock our citizens were aroused from
their peaceful slumbers by the start
ling cry of fire, p,nd by the time the
fire bell rang out its peals the alarm
became general, and men and boys
could be seen running helter-skelter in
every direction. It was soon ascer
tained, however, that the Collegiate
Institute was on fire, and in a short
time a large crowd had gathered at
the scene of conflagration for the pur
pose of rendering such assistance as
was in their power in extinguishing
the consuming monster; but their ef
forts were all in vain, for the fire had
made such rapid headway before the
arrival of any one on the spot as to
enwrap the entire building in flames,
and in a short space of time, where
once stood a commodius and beauti
ful edifice, nothing remained to mark
the spot but a charred mass of ruins.
The origin of the fire is not definitely
known, but supposed to be the work of
an incendiary.
We are informed that rooms have
been secured at the Fisher House,
where the school will be continued un
til the trustees can perfect arrange
ments for the erection of a suitable
building.—Toccoa Herald.
Everybody has now made up ?kis
mind how he is going to vote. The
Republicans will, of course, keep up
the manufacture of roorbacks, but the
people are beyond being frightened by
political scarecrows. Gov. Tilden has
gone through the canvass unharmed,
and is stronger than when he started;
the Republicans have waved the bloody
shirt in vain; the rebel claims bugaboo
is at rest; the South Carolina war has
stirred the indignation of all honest
men; the millions of Zach Chandler’s
corruption fund have been wasted;
Blaine is a failure as the trainer of
Hayes; Carl Schurz is deserted by the
Germans; the people do not respond
to the Republican notes of alarm; the
business men and laborers of the coun
try demand a change of administration,
and the 7th of November approaches
with victory in its keeping.—N. Y. Sun.
A Washington special says: “It is
suggested by leading Democrats here
that the Chairman of the National
Democratic Committee institute with
out delay preparations for mass meet
ings in all the principal cities of the
United States to take action on the
South Carolina outrage. It is thought
that the moral effect of the people, in
their sovereign capacity, protesting
against the horrible proceedings now
going on in South Carolina will be
much heightened if the meeings should
all be held on the same night. It is
to be hoped the matter will receive the
attention of the committee without de
lay.’ ’
We wish to say to the friends of Til
den and reform throughout the coun
try that they need feel no apprehen
sions about New York, Connecticut
and New Jersey. They have been
subjected to a thorough and careful
convass, minute and particular in
every respect, and in which all the
doubtful elements have been conced
ed to the Republicans. The result is
that New York is absolutely sure to go
for Tilden by an overwhelming major
ity, Connecticut by a large majority,
and New Jersey by a sufficient majori
ty.—New York Sun.
The New York Herald’s Columbia
<S. C.) correspondent says: “Notwith
standing that the troops and all the
paraphernalia of war which he has oc
casioned in the State, Gov. Chamber
lain still continues to weaken. I have
it as coming directly from him that he
would give SIO,OOO to get out of the
position he now occupies politically,
and he would give SIOO,OOO to escape
all the vituperation and abuse that iB
being heaped upon him.”
H the Republican leaders are con
vinced that the Democratic party in
tends to pay the “Rebel Claims” they
should show their faith by buying
them up at a reduced figure. The
election of Tilden is certain.—Cincin
nati Enquirer.

The New York Tribune is weaken
ing in its belief that Hayes can carry
New York. Here is one of its latest
paragraphs:
“There ought to be no risks taken
in Governor Tildeu’s own State. Here
he is on his native heath. He knows
every county and almost every town
in the State down to the last record
ed vote. He is a sleepless, watchful
opponent, a master in the arts of poli
tics, and as silent as he is sagacious.”
Tilden’s cabinet is announced “with

State, Charles Francis Adams; Secre

and that a Demorratic majority in
Ohio would be no surprise. It further
says: “New York will go for Tilden
