For some wrecks previous to the 11th of April it was announced in the public prints that there would, on Saturday, April 11th, be a grand Conservative Mass Meeting held and a free barbecue given in Newnan. As expected, oq the evening preceding citizens in large numbers from adjouning counties began to arrive. Early Saturday morning every road leading to Newnan was crowded with footmen and every variety of vehicles, filled with men and women, bound for this city. By 10 o'clock the public square and streets were full to over flowing. At 11 o’clock the Newnan Brass Band discoursed some delightful music and led the way to the grove around the Presbyterian Church, where a stand had been erected for the speakers. Ere long a multitude number ing thousands had collected, when Col. W. F. Wright introduced Col. John L. Hopkins, of iUiauui, wuo proceeded to address the people. Col. H. devoted his almost entire speech to the history and trickery of Brown and Bullock, and satisfied every impartial hearer that Bullock was not the man for Governor of Georgia. lie received a patient hearing, and time and again was loudly and heartily cheered. Col. M. M. Tidwell followed. This gentle man made a characteristic speech, and sought on 1 .}- to present Gen. Gordon to the voters of Georgia in his true colors. His speech aroused much latent enthusiasm, the multitude gave vent to their delighted feelings in countless ways. Hon. Hugh Buchanan was introduced after Col. Tidwell had concluded. This accomplish ed gentleman and profound and able debater dissected the Constitution and held up to the gaze of the enchained thousands its horrid de formity. Never were arguments clearer or speaker more unanimously endorsed. It was then announced that dinner was ready.

Ashburn. hi this, as in all cases of gross outrage, the innocent are apt to suffer for the wrongs of the guilty. The gentlemen whom I have named are above suspicion as being in any way con nected with the transaction; several of them are men of family, and if public justice can be satisfied, as I trust it can, by an examina tion here without taking them from their fam ilies, it is very desirable that it should be done. An examination, I am sure, would acquit them of any participation in the assassination. They can give any bonds that may be required, for their appearance, aud if you can influence this matter, 1 hope you will consider it advi sable to allow these gentlemen to be bailed, until such time as their appearance may be required. To which Gen. Dunn, under date April 9th, replies as follows: . Dear Sir: Yours of the Tth inst,, was re ceived this morning. T am directed by Gen. Meade to reply that Be does not deem it advisable to interfere with the action of Capt. Mills. While there is a determinatien here that the parties who murdered Mr. Ashburn shall, if possible, be arrested and punished, it is hoped this may be accomplished without anv serious inconvenience to the innocent. Maj. Smythe, of this office, is now in Golutn- bus, and I suggest that you confer with him fully and freely. The following is a copy of the Bail Bond, which is signed by over three hundred per sons, citizens of Columbus: GEORGIA, Muscogee County. Know all men by these presents : That we, whose names are hereunder signed, are held and bound to Gen. Geo. G. Meade, or his suc cessor in office, in the penal sum of fifty thous and dollars, for the payment whereof well aud truly to be made to the said Gen. George G. Meade,, or his successor in office, we hereby bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and ad ministrators, firmly by these presents. Witness our hand and seal, this 10th day of April, 1868. The condition of the above obligation is each that, whereas, Gen. Geo. G. Meade has Wm R Bedell, Christo cessfally for the cause than Hugh Buchanan, j 0 ^ ce at their hands. In several coun- allhough disfranchised, and Georgians would t j eg j s Believed not a single white vote will be polled for the Constitution, and in many counties not one for Bullock. I am now fully satisfied that the rumor which prevailed at one time, that the white people were willing to adopt a Con stitution otherwise odious, because it con tained a promise of “ Relief,” was always false, and was originated as a miserable Radical electioneering scheme, under the hope that it would alarm the timid aud weaken the resistance to the Constitution, and that, by reason of the shoit canvass allowed, the scheme would have its effect before its falsehood could be exposed.— Even if the relief proposed had beeu con stitutional, the people have not been will ing to accept it as a consideration for ne gro equality, for negro suffrage, negro juries, negro legislators and judges, lor double taxes, and for the social, educa tional and marital intermixture of the white and black races. It is a slander upon the white people of Georgia to say they ever have been, or ever can be will ing, for any consideration, real or pretend ed; to join deluded negroes and corrupt renegades in disfranchising educated white men, and then to take advantage of that disfranchisement and establish a fundamental law which would enable pauperism to fix the burdens for property, and ignorance and vice to make and ad minister the laws for intelligence and vir tue. None but one who is in principle a thief, and in purpose a traitor, could pos sibly approve, or even entertain, such a proposition, after understanding it. But the white people have discovered that the promise of relief is a cheat—was intended to be a cheat—and solely de signed to entrap them into the acceptance of negro equality with ali its political and social evils. As a natural consequence, they are spurning the bribe and despis ing its authors. The wicked men who engaged in this attempt to deceive in or der to degrade an already oppressed peo ple, will soon find themselves driven from ail decent society in the State. I find this determination rapidly becoming uni versal. A virtuous people will not only reject a bribe aud scorn a cheat, but the vindication of their virtue will render it necessary for them to hold in contempt and social disirm^e. tKoaa T^ho offer the Dube or engage iu the cheat People of Georgia, you can now com prehend, at one glance, the entire scheme by which a Constitution which you hate, is sought to be forced upon you, and that, too, through the pretended forms of your own consent. It consists of three chief distinct propositions : 1. By enfranchising the whole negro population without discrimination or ex ception, and only because they are iguo- raut and may be deluded and forced to vote all one way. 2. By disfranchising over twenty thou sand of the most intelligent white men in the State. By refusing to permit white men to vote on the Constitution under which they are to live, and for no reason except that they are distinguished for in telligence, aud have been deemed worthy of trust and confidence, and cannot, there fore, be deceived or bribed. 3. By false promises of relief, intended to buy up and entrap to the aid of the ne gro a sufficient number of tbe remaining white population to make sure the ac complishment of the wicked purpose. They may delude and force the negro to their liking. By the aid of the bayo net they will certainly exclude from the polls the twenty thousand intelligent white men. But even then they cannot succeed. The remaining whites, whom all their wicked cunning could not find a pretext to exclude,jViitnuuiber the negroes. Therefore, some of them must be bought up and entrapped. How many white men can be so bought and entrapped? That is the whole question! Answer it. white men of Georgia ! How many of Dr. Jas. R Thomasson, who is a ■ can didate in Carroll County for Representa tive, raised a Company in 1361, and went as Capt. of the same into the army. Last Summer lie stated publicly in Carrollton that his sympathies were with the North all the time, from the begin ning, and he prayed that the North might whip the South, and that he told his wife the morning he left home for the seat of War, that if she heard of any fighting in the direction he was going, she need not look for him until the war ended for if he had to fight he intended to fight on the other side. Voters of Carroll, remember that this man went into the army as a volunteer, he was exempt from conscription. Now -on you vnm Tor a man wno encouraged your brothers and sons to join his eompa ny, and go into the army, and at that time intended in liis heart, to join the enemy and turn around and shoot down the very boys, he had persuaded to join his company — as soon as he should have an opportunity ? We certify that Dr. Thomasson made the Declaration above mentioned in our presence, and in the presence of the Rev. Mr. McGehee presiding Elder. H. F. Merrill, W. W. Fitts, L. J. Smith, J. M.

If the blacks are not forced to the polls against their will, the Constitution will be defeat ed fifty thousand votes, and the whole blame of a contrary result must rest upon those who force them. Theiefore, I re peat, it is all important to mark this class. 3. In the third place, if all other frauds fail them, in the last resort,.another false count is relied on. Also, false voters are to be brought from adjacent States, and many negroes are to be voted at different precincts. It is even believed that tick ets will be changed aud substituted, and that the obnoxious word, “ Against,’ will be erased and the word, “ For,” will be written in its stead. The rewards which arc to fall to some of the managers of this election are so great, in the event ol ratification and of Bullock's election, and said managers, in many instances, are so notoriously shrewd and corrupt that, no device will be too low, if it can be made successful. Now, let all our friends be on the alert. We can expose this fraud if again com mitted, and we shall have some issues which will compel full examination even of the specific ballots and of the voters who cast them. Be sure and know every white man in each county who votes for the Constitution, or for the New England candidate for Governor. This will be an easy task, for they will number but few. People of Cherokee ! Next to the ne groes, the chief reliance of the Radicals is upon you. Among your hills they ex pect to make their chief purchases for in famy and find the chief dupes to their villany. They have devised special’faise- hoods to deceive you. In lower Georgia the Radical speakers are giving the true version of the Constitution, and are tell ing the negroes who abound there that it gives them the right to hold office and enjoy perfect social equality. But it was necessary to give a different and false version to you. A ready deceiver was fouud. The Belzebub of the fallen was deemed eminently fitted for the work, and chiefly so because he had deceived you so often before. He was sent to tell the white people of Cherokee that under this Constitution negroes could not hold office nor be entitled to social equality ! And while this falsehood still echoing in yuur mountains, his Radical co-laborers, in middle and lower Georgia, are actually nominating negroes for office, until the number in the field already exceeds fifty. Special bids have been made to you. In addition to the false promise of relief made to ail, you are promised a removal of the Capital. But I waru you, that if ! removed, ) - ou will have to pay the enorm ous taxes to build it, for under negro rule lower Georgia will become a vast lazer huuse. You are promised certain railroads from Radical beneficence. But I warn you, that you will not only not get the Railroads promised, but under that ad ministration of your State by a New England Governor with negro votes, you will be in great danger of losing the con trol of the great road which Middle and Lower Georgia built for your development. | It will be a splendid work to buy with a surplus falling currency, and Puritan greed and cupidity have already marked it for New England investment. The men who are willing to betray your State gov ernment into the hands of New England rulers, will not hesitate to sell your great road to New Englaud stockholders— themselves taking a liberal share. The people or Middle and Lower Georgia anx iously wait to see if you can possibly be induced to vote them under the dominion of the negro.

The attempt to use the black race in order to force upon the white race a hated Constitution, is a crime blacker than any recorded in the annals of barbarism, and every white man who rebels against bis o!ood to aid in the work, should be driv en from the white race, as Lucifer was driven from Heaven, into a social Hell from which there shall be no return. Net satisfied to rest the success cf their proposed Constitution upon the three odious measures above mentioned, the Radical leaders iu Georgia are resorting to numerous other fraudulent devices to effect their purpose. To some of these I desire to call your attention. 1. In the first plaee there are many of the better class of negroes who see that their true interests lie in acting with the better class aud the great body of the white race, and in their natural spheres. These desire to vote the Democratic ticket and against the Constitution.

He was born in your own valleys. Ho was rear ed under your own oaks. His ancestors went out and came in among you. He won a glorious name in your defence.— Nobler blood than his flows not in the j veins of Georgia’s children.
