that it matures the plant earlier, and
its results are loss affected by the pro

Editors Eagle: Is it true that ce *
t liu gentlemen who were delegates in
Ihe late Gainesville convention and
voted for Mr. Alexander’s resolution,
pledging themselves to support and
use evei y honorable meais to sect re
the election of the nominee, went away
hurrahing for Speer aud denouncing
the convention? Is it true that a pro
minent candidate before the conven
tion for the nomination said after the
nomination was made that he would
canvass Clarke county with his bitter
est enemy to prevent Bell’s getting a
vote in the county ? Is it true that the
gentleman who borrowed a proxy from
Oconee county in order to get tempor
arily on the floor of the convention,
being uuable to get there from his
own county, came out of the conven
tion urging the crowd of outsiders to
hurrah for Speer ? Is it true that the
Carlton delegation from Clarke claimed
that they alone represented the true
Democracy of that county, and that
Rucker’s delegation were disorgan
izes ? Is it true that Rucker and the
other members of that delegation kept
their pledge and went away giving a
hearty support to Col. Bell, but Dr.
Carlton and bis delegation went home
denouncing the convention and its
nominee ? Did not the Carlton delega
tion pledge themselves in the Athens
primary, and also in this convention
to support the nominee of the conven
tion, no matter who he might be nor
in what part of the district he might
live ? Such rumors as the above are
alloat, and if they are true, these gen-
tlemen, each and all, have certainly
put themselves out of the plan of the
Democratic party. A true Democrat
always bows in submission to the will
of the party, when it has spoken
through its properly constituted au
thorities. The course of these gentle
men, if these charges are true, seems
to indicate that their policy is “to rule
or ruin.” It looks like they prefer to
see the party organization broken up
and their own counties remanded back
to negro rule rather than that any gen
tleman north of them should receive a
nomination. Do they really prefer to
be ruled by the negroes and indepen
dents (which is but another name for
Radicals) rather than yield to the
preferences of the Democracy o‘ the
white counties north of them ? It
really looks that way, aud is much to
be regretted. It is to be hoped that
in this these gentlemen do not reflect
public sentiment in their counties.
Such sentiments are not democratic.
Men entertaining them are not Demo
crats. They are false to all the time
honored principles of the party. They
are devoted to men and not to iminci
ples. They constitute a faction which
will, if they have not already, ruined
the party in the Ninth District. They
are rebels, and ought to be cut off
from all voice in the party councils.
But I hope, and every true Demo
crat hopes, these gentlemen will take
the sober second thought aud not ruin
their party and stultify themselves.—
They owe it to themselves and to their
party, and above all, to their country
at this critical juncture, to give a warm
hearty support to the nominee,of the
party. He is a man of integrity, ability
and character, and be who withholds
his support, is a deserter, and can no
more be trusted. Bakes.
Editors Eagle: The time-honored
adage: “Old men for counsel, young
men for war,” seems to be entirely re
versed at the present time. The tail
of the rattlesnake now claims to lead,
simply because it makes the most
noise. These conclusions have been
reached by the fact, that in most, if
not all our public meetings, the young
men aspire to run the machine and
give direction to all its movements.
The older and more experienced men,
whose judgment has been matured and
ripened by observation, whose counsels
would be of the greatest good to the
country, if those over officious young
men would so far abate their zeal as to
allow these mi n to be heard.
These facts give rise to the many ob
jections that are being raised to con
ventions and their nominees by those
who are always watching for some pre
text to base objections upon. These
professional objectors aud fault-tinders
are always on hand, ever ready and
anxious to find fault with aud condemn
all results, let them be as they may.
They will tell you in advance what will
be done; condemn what is being done,
and with more than human sagacity
and great self-esteem, pronounce it all
wrong. They will then commit them
selves to opposing it with all the influ
ence they can bring to bear against its
results, let them be done as fairly and
correctly as they may. These facts
have all transpired before, during and
since the Gainesville Convention.
And now in the face- and danger of
having a radical elected to Congress
iu this, the Ninth District of Georgia,
we have two Independents running for
Congress, claiming to be Democrats.
One condemning the convention and
its action iu advance, and repudiating
its nominee—the other counseling har
mony and a speedy nomination in the
convention, and aiding in its delibera
tions, aud then bolting its action at
once, declaring himself a candidate.
Both young men of promise—either
of whom might in a few short years,
by a manly aud upright course, have
been acceptable to and promoted by
the voters of the district, without
court'ng the radical vote, as they are
now certainly doing. All the result of
impatient ambition and premature
thirst for office. There has not been,
nor can there be any charge worth the
notice of any candid man against the
nominee of the convention and sus
tained by facts. That he was the
choice of the people of the district is
fully demonstrated by the fact that he
received the nomination over several
prominent gentlemen, either of whom
would represent with honor an 1 dis
tinction this or any other district in
the State.
Let every true Democrat in this dis
trict come to the polls on the 13th, and
give the nominee a rousiug majority.
Fair Play.
o til-* llclHiijlic iiis of the Ninth District.
At a convention of liepublicaLS held
at Gainesville, on March sth, Col. Mar
tin 11. Archer, of Hall, was nominated
as the Republican candidate for Con
gress in the special election to be helo
on Tuesday, the 13cb instant. All Re
publicans throughout the District are
urged to rally to the support of the
nominee of our Party. There are sev
eral Democratic candidates, and all
that is necessary to secure the election
of Colonel Archer is vigorous and stir
ring action by the liepeblicans of the
District.
If our riends will bring out the full
Republican vote it will secure his elec
tion, as the Democratic vote will be
divided. The ffth District has never
been represented by a Republican, but
has all the time been represented by
Democrats, and they have never done
anything for the people of the District.
Now we have an opportunity of elect
ing a Republican, and, if elected, he
can present to Congress the condition
and the necessities of the mountain
people more effectually, and do more
for them than any Democrat can do.
Read his letter of acceptance and rally
to the noble sentiments therein ex
pressed, and poll the whole party vote
for him and we will have one Republi
can member in Congress from Georgia.
Henry P. Farrow,
Of Lumpkin.
Gainesville, Ga., March 5, 1877.
To 11. 11. Taylor, Henry P. Fart'ow, and
others, Committee Ninth District of
Georgia:
Gentlemen— l accept the nomina
tion for Congress, with which your
Convention has honored me.
You are not mistaken in supposing
that I am devoted to the principles of
the Republican party. These principles
are incorporated in the National Con
stitution, and have received the as
sent—lfioiigh the late and reluctant
assent —of the party which oppos <s us.
It is, in fact, impossible to support the
Constitution of the United States
without supporting the leading princi
ples of the Republican party aud I
support them heartily, believing that
when they have fair play they will
work for good in all parts of the
country.
I desire, as all good men should,-
that the white man shall he in hormo- 1
ny with the colored man, that the'
South shall be iu harmony with the
North, that the State shall be in hur
inony with the Nation, that the strifes
of the past shall be forgotten, that the
errors of the oast shall be forgiven,
and that all citizens shall labor togeth
er for the welfare of our State and
country. Should these sentiments
commend me to the suffrages of the
people, they will ever find me faithful
to duty and to their interest.
I have the honor to be,
Most respectfully,
Martin R. Archer! .

The reputation it lias attained, in consequenco of
the marvellous cures it has produced during the
last half century, is a sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize the happiest
results that can be desired. In almost every
section of country there are persons, publicly
known ,who have been restored from alarming anil
even desperate diseases of the lungs, by its use.
All who have tried it,acknowledge its superiority;
and where its virtues are known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine to employ to relieve the dis
tress and suffering peculiar to pulmonary affec
tions. Cherry Pectoral always affords in
stant relief, and performs rapid cures of the
milder varieties of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases of the lungs.
Asa safeguard to children, amid the distress
ing diseases which beset the Throat and Chest of
Childhood, it is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued aud restored to health.
This medicine gains friends at every trial, as
the cures it is constantly producing arc too re
markable to be forgotten. No family should be
without it, and those who have once used it
never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the country
prescribe it; and Clergymen often recommend it
from their knowledge of its effects.
