* f’ljr Iranian NEWIf&Tt, GEORGIA. Saturday Wornirfg. May 9, 1868. A Great Speech. Members Is'DKPEHMWT.—Iii the classification of Demo crats and Radicals elected 1 t^-the House, we notice that Mr. F. M. SbrOggin, one of the | soaring above the mephitic moral atmosphere It annoyS-ns no little, says the Macon Tele graph, that our space is so circumscribed that wC'are unable to spread the entire speech of Mr. Evarts in defense of the President, before our readers. It is an intellectual treat to which they have been unaccustomed since the Websters, the Choats and Berriens have passed 1 away. It is a luminous and lofty production, Elect to the Senate. Legislature— JirpropetTtAtivea efcrtcd from this county, is counted ?vs a ItadUSii. 'I his is a mistake, and we arc auTfihrlzdd 'td state that Mr. Scroggin considers that he was elected as an independent candidate, and hfcnce is not committed to the principles or policy of the Radical party. Tiik Banner County.—A writer in the At lanta Intelligencer disputes the claim of Hous ton to the title of “Banner County,’’ and speaks up for Quitman ag follows: We claim the honor for “Young Qjiitman County.” It is said “ figures do not lie,” and to these we appeal for a religious decision.— In Houston county the registered vote stands: t<20 w bites, 2,526 colored—aggregate, .3,446. Majority for Gordon, 334. In Quitman the registered votcstnnds: 308 whiles,398 colored; Gordon’s majority, 350. • In Quitman, Bullock received only six votes, till told, only one vote to <m>ry 06 negroes; while Gordon received every white man’s vote, and about one-sixth of tote-negro vote': From these figures it will be seem that, had .“old Houston” done as well, Gordon’s majority would have been 1,195 instead of 334. Now, can any other coutity'in'Georgia show so clean a record? Is not “young Quitman," instead of “old Houston, 1 ’ entitled to the palm? VV’e claim for her the honor of being “ The Banner County.” Honor to whom honor is due. Glorious old Houston, but still more glorious young Quitman. Waive the palm. Gen. W. S. Hancock. The question, Who shall he the National Democratic nominee for President ? is very ex tensively canvassed throughout the limits of the Union. To answer this question satisfac torily we must ask what manner of man should he be to insure success? Evidently the Democratic candidate for the Presidency should he a citizen of some Northern State, and whose war record is endorsed by the party of that aection and net inexcusably obnoxious to the whitmrpeople of the South. He should now he sound in the faith, and give evidence of his honest desire for the restoration ot the Union upon the basis of the Constitution, If the party can nominate such a candidate his election is certain. On the other hand, if a Peace Demo crat of the Valjandighara school is chosen stand ard-hearer of the party, his defeat is inevitable, because the wing known as War Democrats will not support him, if at all, at least with no degree of zeal. It would also he equally fatal to place in nomination a soldier, he he private or General, who has been guilty of cruelty and theft and oppression during our late struggle, for the Peace Democrats North and the white men South would feel entirely lukewarm or refuse to vote. We repeat, the nominee must have taken a position between the honest and glorious Yallandigham and the thieving Butler. Well, is there such an one? We think so.— Gen. Sherman is not the man, for his barbarity towards the citizens of Atlanta, and his wanton destruction of the cities of Atlanta and Colum bia will render him forever odious to thousands of good and-true Democrats Noith and South. Moreover, Sherman has not given sufficient evidence of his devotion to Democratic princi ples since the conclusion of the war to merit the position. Steadman has not the reputation *>r popularity. The same of Rousseau and many others of like standing. The question then recurs, Who is the man who was an honest War Democrat during the war, has since Lee’s surrender taken a bold stand for the rights and liberties of the down trodden whites of the South, and who is at the same time the fortunate possessor of sufficient ability to make a good Federal Executive ?— We have no hesitation in giving the name of Gen. W. S. Hancock. The proof to substan tiate these assertions is abundant. No reader of history need he told of Hancock’s gallantry and military skill. Ilis informed enemies con cede him these. His career as Commander of the Fifth Military District is fresh in the minds of every' newspaper reader. His General Or ders,.issued from his Headquarters, were replete with glorious Democratic doctrines, and thrill ed the (land with their eloquence, and left no doubt ou the mind of the reader as to their author’s learning and qualifications for any office in the gift of the American people. Not only is he a brave and true, but he is a bold and fearless man. When he assumed com mand at New Orleans the hopes of the lovers of liberty ware dead. The iron heel of the depostic Sheridan had crushed, while the ruling party North were jubilant over the death- throes of the principles purchased with the blood of the heroes of ’76. The timid were awed into silence, and none but the unterrified would dare give expression to opinions at all in conflict with Radicalism. Unawed by the darkness of the hour or the prospective wrath of an infatuated Congress, Hancock gave utter ance to his sublime sentiments in favor of the birth -rights of American citizens. These orders eventually lost him his place, hut not his prin ciples. Now here is a man popular North with the War Democrats, because of his successful military caretr, popular with the Peace Demo crats because he is a true Democrat in principle, and popular with whites South because he sought to restore to them constitutional liberty. In brief, General Hancock am combine, as no other man can, the various divisions of his party and awaken an enthusiasm like unto that which swelled the bosoms of Jackson's followers. Hancock is the man for the times, and liis nomination will be equivalent to his election In the coming contest the Democracy cannot afford to be defeated—for a Radical victory is the death knell of the last hope of Republican ism on the American continent While we do not wish to he considered as disapproving the course of the Peace Democrats, or willing to 6«e them sacrificed, still wje feel that we sur render no principle in urging Hancock’s nomi nation. We believe the South will be poten tial in the nominating Convention, and we do hope her united voice will be for Hancock, thereby demonstrating that we freely forgive those who fought agahysi us, provided they were honest in their views then, but are now willing to give us equality in the Union. of the times and completely immersing a great question in a flood of light and truth. The correspondent of the Boston Post thu3 refers to the orator’s appearance and the effect of his speech upon the managers, Senators, and crowded galleries: SPEKCn OK MR. EVARTS. Order having been restored, this frail human being, this intellectual giaut,.arose, seemingly unconscious that all eyes were upon him, and •went straight to his work, occasionally casting a glance at the manuscript before him. Ex pectation was high, but Evarts far surpassed it. Groesbeck’s was a great speech, but Ev arts has taken a larger view of the subject.— His discussion of the powers of government, personifying them and bringing them all with in the wall of the Ser.a'e chamber there, in deadly strife, was a picture of rare grandeur and beauty. Who is not fumiliar with the Presidential oath? And yet, when Evarts described its nature and character, Senators were observed to exchange glances, and several ventered 10 whisper their comments. “ The President was sworn to protect, de fend and preserve the Constitution. The peo ple had required him to swear that he would do this thing, and yet he had looked upon Congress violating that sacred instrument in the attempt to throttle the Supreme Court in order to defeat great public interests, as well as to deny protection to individual liberty.”— This indictment made some of the impeachers look wild, but when he reacLed the question, whether the Senate was a Court, manager Butler made it convenient to leave the cham ber, and the other managers looked like poor men at a frolic. If the altar around which they had gathered was not an altar of justice, then, said Mr. Evarts, it is an altar of sacrifice, and he demanded to know to what divinity it had been erected, whether to base party pas sion and prejudice. The speaker here intro duced the opening paragraph of Judge Spen cer’s speech when acting as a manager in the impeachment of Judge Peck, and it was a per fect bomb-shell. Judge Spencer said that no party feeling had entered into the considera tion of the case by the House of Representa tives, and had it been otherwise ho would not have been present as one of the managers as be would have scorned himself if he could allow party feeling to influence him on such an occasion, Mr. Evarts, leaning forward towards the managers, repeated: “Yes, scorned himself it he could have been biased by party considera tions.” The honorable managers in their pitiable condition were fit subjects for sympa thy, but Mr. Evarts continued, commenting on the argument of manager Butler, that the Senate was not a Court, and, stepping forward, exclaimed: “If this is not a Court it is a scaf- Lid, and you, Senators, arc the headsmen to do the bidding of the House." A feeling of awe ran through the whole t hamber and thrill ed every hearer. “ Oh, Senators, you are told by the honorable manager (Butler) that you are not bound to observe your judicial oaths; but 1 tell you,” said the speaker, “and tell you upon high authority, that ‘thou shall not take the name of the Lord thy God in vnin, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh Ilis name in vaiu,”’ The effect of this quota tion can better be imagined than described.— A more solemn scene was never witnessed in Court or Senate, and under its influence the Senate adjourned. Marriage of Gf.n. Hood.—We find the fol lowing pleasant announcement in the New Or leans Picayune of Friday: We have a pleasant surprise to give our readers. The gallant, brave, and universally beloved Gen. Hood was married yesterday evening to Miss Anna Hennen, daughter of the late Duncan N. Hennen, Esq.

Buckner, Bragg, Hays, Wheeler, Maury and Scott. Al so such friends of his in peace as Messrs. M. Mnsson, T. A. Adams, Pike, etc. Gen. Hood may rest assured that from every Southern household will go up, upon reading this announcement, most hearty prayers for the continued happiness of himself and of her who has linked her happiness with his, and surrendered her name to one whose own is written on the tablets ol fame iudelibly. 1st District—Chatham, Bryan an4 Ef fingham—Bradley, negro. 2d District—Liberty, Tat nail and Mc Intosh—Campbell, negro. 3rd District—Wayne, Fierce and Ap pling—C D Graham, Dent. 6th District—Echols, Lowndes and Berrien—Griffin, Rad. i 7th District—Brooks, Thomas and Col quitt— M C Smith, Rad. 9th District—Early, Calhoun and Ba ker—R T Nesbitt, Item. 10th District —Dougherty, Lee and Worth—Welch, Rad. * 11th District—Clay, Randolph and Terrill—Wootten, Detn. 12th District—Stewart, Webster and Quitman—Moore, Dem. 13th District—Sumter, Schley and Macon—Jones, Rad. 14th District—Dooly, Wilcox and Pu laski—Collier, Dem. 15th District—Montgomery, Telfair and Irwin—McAuthur, Dem. 16th District—Laurens, Emanuel and Johnson—Hicks, Dem. 18th District—Richmond, Glasscock and Jefferson -Conley, Rad. 19th District—Taliaferro, Warren and Greene—Adkins, Rad. 20th District—Baldwin, Hancock and Washington—Wallace, negro Rad. 21st District—Twiggs, Wilkinson and Jones—Griffin, Rad. 22rd District—Bibb, Monroe and Pike —Speer, Rad. 23rd District—Houston, Crawford and Taylor—Anderson, Dem. 24th District—Marion, Muscogee and Chattahoochee—Hinton, Dem. 25th District—Harris, Upson and Tal bot— Higby, Rad. 26th ilistrict—Spalding, Fayette and Butts—Nunnally, Dem. 27th District—Clark, Walton and New ton—Harris, Rad. 28th District—Jasper, Putnam and Morgan—Jordan, Rad. 20th District—Wilkes, Lincoln and Columbia—Sherman, Rad. 30th District—Oglethorpe, Madison and Elbert—Mattox, Dem. 32d District—White, Lumpkin and Dawson—Landrum, Dem. 83rd District—Hall, Banks and Jaok- son—Stringer, Rad. 34th District—Gwinnett, DeKalb and Henry—Candler, Detn. ‘ 35th District—Clayton, Fulton and Cobb—Winn, Dem. 36th District—Meriwether, Coweta and Campbell—Smith, Rad. 37th District—Troup, Heard and Car roll—Merrill, Had. 86th DLtript—Haralson, Pojk and PauHing—Head, Dent. 39th District—Cherokee, Milton and Forsyth—Holcombe, Dem. 40th District—Union, Towns and Ra bun—C J Welborn, Dem. 42d District—Bartow, Floyd and Chat tooga—Burns, Dem. 43rd District—Murray, Whitfield and Gordon—Fain, Dem. 44th District—Walker, Dade and Ca toosa—McCutchen, Dem.

It is a fact not less humiliating than true, that sim ply for exercising the right of suffrage, scores of citizens have been thrown out of employment, and those dependent upon their daily labor deprived of the necessa ries of hie. I will not insult your intelligence by ftn attempted argument condemnatory of this unjust and unprecedented proscrip tion, incited by seditious newspaper ap peals to the baser passions of men.

The country needs that prominence should be given to a few such names to bring the minds of the people hack to the times and ideas of the first revolution, and in order to pqt a stop to the present one.—N. T. Citizen. A Curious Case.—A most curious occur rence happened in the Prussian province of Posen, Some days ago a poor woman f sick, and as she felt she was near her end, she sent for the priest. Sha subsequently con fessed to him that she, about thirty years ago, having been delivered of a boy, substituted her own child for the child ot a Countess, in whose’employ she was. Neither the nurse nor the Countess became aware of the exchange, and thus it remained until to-day. Her own boy was educated as a Count, and has married the daughter of a very proud nobleman, while the real Count., having grown up in poverty, weutout to service married, and is now living not far from his princely estate of Komornik, with his own children. The woman said she could not die without confessing this sin. The priest applied at once to the authorities, and an investigation has been commenced. Gen. Hancock as a Candidate.—It is highly ^ratifying to notice the unanimous approval in slfseetions of the country with which the name of Gen. Hancock is received in connec tion with the Presidency. He of all others is the man for the crisis. No one would he more acceptable to the South, or inspire more con. fidence throughout the country.

Entf of the Abyssinian War?—The Bat tle ip which Theo^opps was killed. A" dispatch from Mngadala, April 13th, sets forth the particulars of tfie battle in which King Theodqrus was killed, and whiph ends the abyssiqian war, sq far as the object for which it was undertaken is concerned. The dispatch says ; A truce which had been agreed upon between General Napier and King Theo doras terminated an pap}y hour this morning. Immediately after its termina tion, the King cot having surrendered the captives, Major Geceral Napier placed himself at the head of the first and second brigades of his army, and moved up the hill towards the fortress to Shila>se. This portion of the strong works built was sur rendered to Napier by the chiefs in com mand, after a brisk attack in which the African troops were defeated. Kiug Theodorus, observing the English ad vance and its first fruits retreated into the center of the Mugdala works on the plateau, having first planted five of his guns at the base. When General Napier came in sight with his brigade, the King’s artillerymen opened on the advances with these guns in presence of Theodorus. The British replied immediately with their twelve pounder Armstrong guns and seven-inch mountain mortar rocket guns, throwing rocks into thg pjgpe. After enduring this fire for a short tjme, King Theodorus absconded his guns and still retreating inward, barricaded the sally ports, and commenced a fire of musketry from behind his gates and wall defences. Tfre iVtys.qpians evincing no signs of surrender, General Napier halt ed his advance aqd commenced a bom bardment of their works. The bombard ment was continued during a space of “You bachelqrg ought to taxed,” said a lady to an inveterate invader of the noose. “ I agpee with you, madam,” was the reply, “bachelorism is a great luxury.” Distinction ^nr Difference.—English paper has discovered the line which di\ides a distinction from a difference.

The proceedings of that so-called Mayor and Common Council—civil au thorities by military appointment, which appeared in our issue oi Saturday, conr tains li a message ” recommending 44 the issue of rations ” by the the city authori ties to those who voted the Radical ticket, and an “ additional tax,” if necessary,” to be levied 44 on our largest taxpayers to cairy out 44 this humane design.”— This is certainly and advance ip the scienpe of politics. The ration system is the off spring of the Freedman s Bureau. It has been found so effective as an elec tioneering artifice »s to make it so desira ble, that it should be engrafted upon municipal government. W ith the con tinuation of P ur present status this strate gy is quite Napoleonic. It is the strate gy by which, the 44 Son of my uncle” governs. £b e Sans Culottes of Paris. It works weU ip Imperial Governments— why not in military ? This new Repub lican doctrine may be generalized as fol lows : It is very natural and proper that men should prefer employees indentified with their opiuions and interests, and should give them the preference over those who oppose them; nevertheless it is ** fho fcuum 06 desigg ” ftf the dominant party to make “ our largest fax-payers ’ support those who oppose tbcU interests* free of charge. We have a single sug gestion to make—the support should be pot only free from chargVbut liberal $lso. The Price of Gandy Reduced to suit the Times. To which we ask the attentiom of the WHOLESALE and KETAIL TRADE, tferee hours j when it terminated, British commanders ordered an assault, which was made in fine style. The King’s works were carried,after a very vigorous re sistance ou the part of the enemy. Theo dorus lost, during the engagement, s xty men killed and two huudred wounded.— The English army had fifteen of the rank and file wounded. After the works were completely taken, King Theodorus was found dead by the English soldiers He was shot through the head. Some persons say that he was killed during one of the battles, others incline to the opinion that he committed suicide, when he found the fortune ot the day against him. The King’s bqdy was recognized, among the kU} e d an d wound ed, by the British captives, when releas ed. Theodorus’ two sons were taken prisoners by Napier, and all the European prisoners, held hy their deceased father, set free. The interior of the fortress pf Magdija presented an extraordinary and splendid sight, the place glowing almost with barbaric splendor! The British troops plundered at once. The men found four royal crowns made of sojid gold, twenty thousand dollars in sil ver ; thousands of sifver plates, several lots of very rich jewels, and numerous other articles of great value. Ggn. Na pier takes, by his victory, the twenty- eight large gnns just used against him, Ive thousand stand of small arms, ten thousand shields, such as are used in bat tle in the open field by the Abyssinians, ten thousand spears, and many articles of wjir equipment. The liberate^ British captives will start for home oq the lltli of April. Gen. Napier’s army jvill reor ganize, fall in and return to India and England at once. A dispatch dated Zou- Ju, "April 18, says the very latest reports had at that point from the scene of action in Magdala, represent that 14,0QQ native troops had laid dowq tjieir arms to Napier, and that Theodorus had 500 soldiers kill ed and 1,500 wounded in the late engage ment. Advices from Rapier’s headquar ters in Magdala, without date, are also at hand. They state that the Europeans lately held captive there, numbering sixty souls, including m eD > women, and chil dren, were already on the route to Zoulu for home, and. that the entire force of Theodorus’ army had been either killed, ^opoded, or captured.
