A Farce in Newnan. Mr. Editor: The Conservative or white man’s party held a meeting in the Court House on Tuesday the 7th inst., for the purpose of nom inating candidates for the Representative oninch of the Legislature and county officers. The action of the meeting was altogether har monious, and resulted in the selection of good and true men, just such men as aie fit to rule and govern a white man’s country, and for w hom all white men will cast their ballots. After the meeting was adjourned, an indi vidual calling himself Morse, and having more affronterv than braius, bearing a white man s face but possessing only tbe vile instincts of a low and debased Radical, announced from the Court House steps a meeting of what he styled j Black the Republican party, to be held for the pur pose of nominating a candidate to represent the interests of the niggers and scallawags in the 36th. Senatorial District. Out of curiosity, a goodly number of Conservatives and gentle men remained to witness the deliberations of the meeting. But lo and behold, and to the lasting credit of our good old county be it said, cnly two scallawags could be fouud to organize the meeting—both of these worthies hailing from Campbell county, and feeling fully au thorized to represent the District and so im portant an interest. One of the workers of iniquity called the other to the chair, and after some considerable hlay in organizing for the want of a secretary, ^hich officer is very essential in all deliberative k>lies, and we think especially so in all Radi al meetings, as their names should bo recor- o'ri and banded <k>wn to posterity in infamy Franklin Ga., April, 7th 18G8. I'ursuant to a previous call, delegates from the counties of Carroll, Heard and Troupe, composing the 37tli Senatorial District met in the Court House, when the convention was called to order and organized by electing B. C. Johnson of Troup county to the chair and 0. W. Mabry was requested to act as Secretary, when the following delegates reported and enrolled. From Carroll County, W. II. Acklin, W. M. Echols, W. T. Summerlin, N. C. Jones and J. J. Sumcrlin. From Heard County, J. C. Brewer, A. R. Williams and W. G. Crane. From Troup County, B. C. Johnson, J. A. Long and C. W. Mabry. The meeting being organized, on mo tion of C. W. Mabry, a committee was appointed by the Chair of one from each county, to present a suitable candidate to represent the 37th Senatorial District in the Legislature, should the constitu tion be ratified by the people in the ap proaching election, aud a Legislature con vene under it. The Chair appointed J. A. Long of Troupe, A. R. Williams of Heard aud J. J. Summerlin of Carroll, who retired a short time and returned, and through their chairmau J. A. Long reported and nomin ated as a candidate to represent the Dis trict, W. 0. Tuggle of Troup County. The Report of the Committee was un animously adopted. It was announced that Mr. Tuggle was then in town, and upon motion of Dr. J. A. Long of Troupe, a committee was ap pointed^ wait upon Mr. Tuggle, inform him of his nomination and request his ac ceptance of the same. The Chair appointed Messrs. Acklin, Williams and Long as said committee, who through their chairman introduced Mr. Tuggle to the convention, who in a short, but appropriate address accepted the nomination. On motion it was, Resolved, That the Secretary oe re quested to furnish a copy of the proceed ings of the meeting to the “ LaGrange Reporter” and the “ Newnan Herald,” and request the publication of the same.

A Comparison.—Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis were the chieftains of contending principles and communities. The first was at the head of the Fedcralistic element, the other of State Sovereign De mocracy By the power of numbers, the one triumphed and the other fell, so far as principles may be said to fall by the defeat, of armies. The one was an un settled, shifting, vulgar, rollicking man —the other serious, grave, dignified and determined. The one was a plebeian by uaturc—the other a nobleman. As be tween these contestants as men, the rise and fall of armies have clone little else than to bring them out into stronger con trast.

He went up the stairs with the avowed intention to procure his shot gun and at once commence the work of extermination. He was heard distinctly to load and prepare his weapons for this purpose—the determined indiscriminate murder of a whole family. He was either a demon of the blackest hue, or the mau was insane. Mr. Evans in the mean time prepared to defend himself, his mother and sisters with a double barreled shot-gun. With gun in hand, Brown soon commenced to descend the steps.— could sell a great quantity of your medicines Vicksburg, Miss., Aug. 0. I860.

And so, at the sacrifice of princi ple and the nation’s honour in a hun dred ways, he triumphed over his oppo nent. What are the results secured’ by that bloody triumph? What questions are settled ? The States are further from uuion now than ever: the people are bound under a monstrous load of oppres sions and tyrannies, and are at last, and uot unexpectedly, cursing the being whose triumph was their ruin! How stands his opponent ? Bowed with the sorrows of his people, he may still stand erect over the grave of his dead foe, and exclaim, “ Shake not your gory locks at me; Thou did’st it 1” Had Jefferson Davis sacrificed those principles upon which his people went iuto the struggle, the arrogant North, and not the South would be the stricken land. Had Jeffer son Divris departed from his determined defensive warfare—had he enlisted the slaves of the South in his armies, under the flag of emancipation in 1862, the North would have been a smoking slaughter-pen ! But the banner of his people had been thrown to the breeze, and under its waving fold, be and his people fell together in a Spartan embrace !
