It is natuial for a defeated can
didate. wl o confidently expected
to be e'ected, to be disappointed
and in as important »n office as
the Presidency, that he should
feel that disappointment keenly,
but when a man has been bea'en
in a fair race, by fair means, com
mon prudence would dictate that
bis gri f should be smothered in
bis own bosem, and that it is un
ecoming to parade his tears be
ore the country, or torn loose the
vials of his venom upon his sue
essful competitors. Bui Mr.
1 Blaiue with all his fancied wis
dom, made an exhibit of himself
in Augusta, Maine, last week, tbat
should till his friends with shame
and his enemies with pity.
, He prepared a speech and then
had liimself serenaded to give him
au opportunity to deliver it, that
presents a bitter relentless spirit
towards the Southern slates,which
shows that ha was totally unfit for
'he high office to which h« aspir
ed. He had heretofore had the
reputation of being liberal rud
conservative, and we were led to
say ir. the opening of Ihe cam •
paign that if we hail to be ruled
by a Republican . we would prefer
Blaine to any man in the parly.—
We take it all back after reading
tiiis harrai.gue. Old Tfcad Ste
pheus or Joshua Giddings in their
palmiest days could not have ut
teied more vile aui detestable par
lizanship aud unbridled hate,than
(ills the heart of this man. who
with honied words, sought south
ern support. Even his own party
organs are ashamed of bis bitter
ness, and can hardly apologue for
his malice.
We can ouly make room for the
following ex iact from this shame
e gproduorion :
. a prmagcgue comparison.
This subject is of deep intens
to the laboring men of the uoith
With the southern democracy tri
umphaut in their states and in the
1 nation, the negro will be compell-
I to work for just such wages as
..the whites may desire—wages
which will arnouut. as did the sup
| piies of the s'aves, to a bare sub
sis ence, equal in cash, pertaps, to
1 cents per day, as an av
erage over the entire south. The
white laborer in ihe north will soon
f.el the tffect of this upon his own
wages. The republicans have al
ready B.tn, from the earliest days
of lerionstiucdon, tLat wages in
the south must be raised to the
just recompense of the aborer, or
wages in the north ruinouily Viw
ered, and the party have steadily
worked for the former-result,
''everse influences will now be set
in motion, and the condition of af
fairs will be produced which years
ago Mr. Lincoln warned the free
lubori gmm of the nertb, wi'l
prove hostile to their indepen
dence, and ivill inevitable lead to
a ruincus redaction of wages.
The mere difference in the color
of the skin wid not suffice to maiu
tain an entirely different standard
of wages in contiguous and adja
cem s'ates, and they will be com
pelled to yield to it. So complete
ly have the lolored men in the
sou'h been already deprived, by
the democratic party, of their col
ftitutional and legal rights as citi
zens of the United States, that
they regard tLe advent of that par
ty to national power as the signal
of their downfall, and are affright
ed because they think all legal
protection for them is gone.
A FRANTIC WAVE OF THE BLOODY
SHIRT.
Few persons in the nerth real
ize how completely the chi its (if
the rebellion wield the political
power which has triumphed in the
late election. It is a portentous
fact that the democratic senators
who come from the states of the
lute confederacy—all—and I mean
a 1 without a single exception, pe.-
sonally participated in the rebell
ion against the national govern
ment. It is a still mor6 stgnifi
cant fact that in states no matter
how strong a democrat he may
be to day. has tue slighest chance
of politital prominence One
great avenue to honor in that sec
tion is a record of zealous service
tu the war against the govern
j ment. It is certainly an astound
ing fact that the section in which
friendship for the union in the
dav of itL trial and agony is still
a political disqualification, should
he called now to rule over the un
ion. dll this took place during
the lifetime of the generation that
fought the war and elevated into
pratical command of the Ameri-
can government, the identical
men who organized for its destine
tion, aad plunged us into 'he I
bloodiest contest of moderu'time-
I ’ ave spoken of ti e sorth as
placed by the late elect io-i in pos
session of the government and
I mean all tha* my words imply.
THE SOUTH IN CONTROL OF THE OOV
MKNT
The touth furnished nearly
three fourths of the electoral
votes that defeated the republican
pariy, and they will step in the
command of the democrats as un
challenged and as unrestrained
as they held the same position
for thirty years before the civil
wur. Gentlemen, there cannot be
polii ical inequality against citi
zens of a "free repub'ic. T’iieie
cannot be a minority of white
men in ihe south ruling the major
ity of white men iu the north. Pa
triotism, self respect, pride, pro
tection for person, aud safety for
country a/1 cry out against it.
The very thought of it stirs the
blood of men who inherit equality
from the pilgrims who first stood
on Plymouth rock, and from liber
ty loving patriots who came to
Deleware with William Penn. It
becomes the primal question of
America manhood. It demands
a hearing and,a settlement, and
that settlement will indicate the
equal ty ofAinerican citizens in all
personal and civil rights. It wi'l
at least establish the equality of
the white men under the national
government, and will give to the
northern man who fought to pre
serve the union as large a voice
in its government as may he exer
cised by the southern man who
fuught to destroy the uoion.
Trutb *t ranger than Fiction
Forty years ago there lived in
the counly of Hall, in this State,
an eld farmer by the name of Wil
liana Wilson, and as there were sev
eral V\ illiam Wilsons in the coun
ty, he was known as “Tanner Billy
Wilson,” because he hid a little
tau yard, where during his leisure
hours, Biiatcbed from the labor of
his farm, he made leather for the
neighbornood, from a few vats, as
ter the manner of the primitive
industries of that day
He was a very plain, unassum
ing old man, honored by his
neighbors for his honesty aud In
dus' ry, blessed with n sufficiency
of this world’s goods to be above
want, and happy in the enjoy
ment of the fruit of his daily toil
and in the love and companion
ship of his family iud kind neigh
bors. His highest ambition was
to lead a blameless life, and rear
his farni'y to habits of industry
and with the respect of all the
neighbors.
Among his children, was a long,
lank, awkward boy, Richard T.,
but familiarly known as Dick,
named after Maj DicL Wilson,
who afterwards became a general
of the Malida. On regimental mus
ter days, Gen Will on. also a plain
farmer, would appear on parade
astride a high stepping charter,
with fthiuing uniform and gieat
brassepsuleisattacbed, io each shoul
der, a long red saah swinging
down Lorn his waist, and with a
cocked hat and side whiskers, ne
looked somewhat like the picture
of ‘"en Scott, who was then regai d
ed as the grea/est military chief
tain of th. age.
Young Dick, then budding into
manhood, when he fell into line on
parade days, doubtless felt a thrill
of pride as he saw ihe gieat bight
'o which his uncle had climbed—
for a malitia General was an impor
tant person in those days—and
imagined that th ere was a higher
destiny in store for him than tan
ning leather iu a poplar trough o>
digging a scanty living from a ster
lie soil. With this ambition in
his heart, he would occasionally
go up to Gainsville and try to get
a peep into the outer world by
borrowing papers, there were few
newspapers takeD in that day, and
making acquaintances.
It happened (bat he strolled iu
to the law office of the late Judge
Cinciuuatus Peeples, then a young
lawyer of Gainesville, aud talked
to him about his hopes for the
future, aud borrowed a few papers
to carry home to read by a pine,
knot fire, T’he lawyer became in
terested in this awkward country
boy, and invited him to call at
any time aud talk to him and get
papers. He encouraged his hopes
and pointed out the avenues that
worn open to aspiring youths.—
7 bus encouraged the young man
determined as soou as be was free,
to strike out in the world to seek
his fortune. He had all the ele
meets of a man in him. Honest,
manly, not afraid of toil, with a
conedtution inured to labor and
hardships, and mat patient perse
verance ihui always commands
success, he shouldered he knap
sack and made his way to the
Western & Atlautic Hail oa>l tlrtm
about completed. Here he found
work as a day laborer. Step bv
step he rose iu the confidence of
his employers, urn il he was soon
kuown and respected as one of the
most reliable and lising men in
the service of the road. He after
wards found employment on the
Hast Tann. A Ga. road, where he
was held in high esteem for his
honesty, reliability and patient
discharge of duty in every station.
By careful dealing and fortunate
speculation he found himself at
the close of the war, a man of
wealth. He removed to New
York and entered business there
in competition with the craflie.t
men of the metropolis, w.tb years
of training, backed by millions and
established business communi
cations. //e didn’t waste his rap
idly acquired wealth in wild Wall
street speculations, as so many
men do who have acquired riches
so rapidly,but carefully uusband* d
his earrings with business frugt i
ty, and in a few years was known
bb one of the wealthiest and most
prosperous bankers iu that great
city. With his palatial brown
stone mansion, surrounded by all
the luxuries that wealth can com
mand, lie did not forget his old
home in Hall Co, but re'urned
there in after years with his New
York bride, and purchased Ihe
old homestead, built handsome
monuments to honor the memory
of h s father and mother, and liv.
ed for a while amid the rural
scenes of his boyhood He is now
one of 'he largest stockholders and
the managing spirit in the great
combination of Railroads, known
as the Aast Tenn. Ya. & Ga., sys
tem, extending from Brunswick
through Va. Tenn., and Georgia
But last week his sou was mar
ried to a daughter of Win. Astor,
one of die wealthiest aud most ar
istocralic families of New York,
us will be seen by the following
telegram :
Ntw York, Nov. 18.—Tne wed

Mrs. William Asior, took place in

The toilets of tne ladies were ela
borate id the extrome. The cere
mony was performed by Rev. Dr.
.Uorgan Dix, of Trini/y church,
/'he bridesmaid and ushers re
ceived gifts of diamonds from the

were many, and included a house

Chattanooga. 7’euu., Nov. 23
[Special.]—duller details of the
wholesale drowning at Copenton’s
ferry, on the Tennessee river Sat
urday afternoon, -vere received to
day. Theie were ume persons in
the boat when it capsized. The
following were drowned:
Win. Key and Son, Narali Mc-
Curdy, Ella J/cCurdy, Sarah Lane
Nannie McCurcy
Three men being expert swim
mers, reached the shore after
snuggling isl the swift current
struggling in ihe swift curreut
for five minutes. Mrs. Key, wife
of tli6 ferryman, was standing on
the bank witbiu one hundred sett
of the boat when it sank, and wit
nessed the drowning of her hus
band aud son. She has gone ra

sol, Sarah Lane and Ella McCurdy
have been recovered.
BIH tE OX BLAINE
Philadelphia, Nov. 23.—Ex Sm
aor Bruce, of Mississippi, was
seen at his hoi el. He was ver 1,
frank in expressing nis opinion
regarding Mr. Blaines attack up
on the South.
“That speech of his ut Augusta,”
said senator Bruce,“will doubtless
be the cause of great uneasiness
and mental dist r ess among the
colored people of the south.
Fortunately its effects can only
be shoit lived. Such utterances
were demagogical -n the extrema
and wholly unwaranted. I tninl?
I ought to know some hiDg about
our people iu the south. The
greatest harmony exists between
the white and colored ra es.
Blames charges of intimidatiou
and violence at the polls are abso
lute unqualified falsehoods.
“To day the souih is loyal and
peaceful,” continued Mr Bruce.
“I/s people, white and black, are,
or were until Mr. Blaine fonuent
el this new antagonism, in the
right frame of mind to enter into
Avrmonious relations with the
uerth. They were especially de
sirous that the pleasant business
relations should not be interupied
Tins is exactly what Mr. Blaine
strikes at, and his dugusia speech
ha# lowered him uaore in popular
estimation than any act of his
life.”
