ticason wm committed, but he had committed
an treason, and they dare not try him. Dis
franchisement is not the punishment for trea- j
son, nnd yet Gov. Bullock, in so many words,
says it is by the magnanimity of ,| 10 Radical i
party that we have not all been hung. That i
party trusts not in God or hereafter, but only
in the present, and in the villainy of mankind, j
ft is needless to tell them that there is but one
great principle of justice which should rule
and that “resistance to tyrants is obedience to I
God.” They retort by declaring that they are I
the conquerors, and that we have no right to j
complain of what they choose to do. “ That
the conqueror,” said Mr. T , “has a right over
tfte lives, property and liberties of the con
quered is one of the most infamous doctrines
that ever was yelled from the bowels of the
damned. Jt is not the law of God, or the law
nations.” International law was based upon
justice between man and mdn. Ilad Georgia
received justice she would have been deprived
of the great clemency which gave her Bullock
and a nigger Government. It is not true that
none but a loyal man is entitled to protection.
The traitor has a right to it; the pirate on the
high seas has a right to it, for the Constitution
provides that be shall have a fair and impar
tial trial by a jury of his countrymen. The
people of the United StateH must decree how
the conquered shall he dealt with. Congress
can exercise only such right as has been vest
ed in it by the people, and it has no power
whatever outside of the Constitution. Bat I
Congress bad tied the bands of the Executive I
and overthrown the independence of the Judi
ciary. When Chase sneaked, when Swayne and
his associates recoiled, the noble Grier flung
the word “shame” into the face of the Court.
They murmured not at the charge, “for the
voice of truth carried the tbuudcrbolt of con
viction with it.”
The skies are br'ght and brightening. Good
men are coming; old nnd young men are com- I
ing; our mothers are coming, and all the wo
men arc with us. By Heaven, there never was
a Radical woman in the world! No matter
where I have been, wherever 1 have found a
woman she was a Confederate, dead certain.— |
Unite with this grand army of liberty; its ban
ners are numberless, its hearts are one. Who
will turn his back upon the liberties of his
country? Tuke no counsel of the accursed
gold. Who holds it as the price of these
chains is unworthy to have been made in the
imnge of his God.
We regret our inability to give a more ex
tended and accurate report of this excellent
speech. It was listened to with the most earn
est attention, and .Mr. Toombs was frequently I
interrupted by the loud plaudits of ins en
thused audience.
Gen. Howell Cobb said: I am glad that the
time has come when the people can meet as
you have assembled here to-day; by people I I
mean the women aud children—the “good
men and true,” the representatives of the men
and women throughout our State; that you
can meet and hear the voices of your sons.—
Tlicro is promise of a brighter day, not far
distant in the future, when the voice of him
who has preceded me may be able to reach
you from his old stand-point in the halls of
legislation.
We are now passing through a purgatory,
but only for a short time I trust and believe.
We nre living under a government whose days
arc numbered. Let us make tbo best we can
of it while it lives. I shall offer some auvice
to Gov. Bullock, but before doing so, I will
say, let him have all of the Governor he is
entitled to. True, he has not called on me,
yet I shall waive all etiquette aud give him
some counsel. I would say to him that the
people of Georgia have done him no harm,
and that it is his duty to inflict as little wrong
upon them ns possible; that he should behave
himself as well as his nature nnd education
will admit; that he has everything to make
and nothing to lose. A prettier field, my
friends, was never offered to man. It is like a
young man who goes to bet at faro and has no
money to buy the checks. I would say that this I
Constitution invests him with great power, and
to exercise it, if he can, in a way to do good.
I would advise him to send for a certain paper
framed by one Joseph E. Brown, urging the
organization of the Courts of Georgia upon
corrupt principles, and consign it to the flames.
I would say to him don't put upon Georgia a
corrupt judiciary, as you have been publicly
advised to do. I would ask him to rescue
Georgia from these plunderers—men aspiring
to the highest positions in the State, battalions
of them, who in the past history of Georgia
would scarcely have had the face to come up
to the Legislature and apply for the position
of door-keeper; that there is a chance to win
for himself a name and confidence he never
had before by calling to his council houest
men, provided that class will respond. I would
give him this advice, for during a few more
months we may be called -upon to live under
this Government. When another President
is elected the last of these shackles will drop
from our limbs, and the last of the detesta
ble race who seek to live upou our misfor
tunes will be hurled from the positions they
now occupy. We want a day of peace, such
as the patriots of this land alone can give. I
wish to know what you intend to do for your
country? Her body is covered with wounds.
Is there a heart that will not respond in this
hour when Georgia is struggling for constitu
tional liberty ? No man can plead ignorance
in future. For months the eloquent sons of
this soil have appealed to yon. There is dark
ness and sorrow without ceasing. Choose this
day your course. On one hand ihe Democratic
party, that brings within its folds all men
everywhere, says come and stand by us. We
have put a candidate before you for the high
est otlico in the country, a man true to the
great principles of constitutional right, and
for Vice President a man who, like Grant,
fought you during the war, but who, unlike
Grant, ceased to fight you when the battle was
oyer. The man who draws his sword and
pierces each corpse as he passes along can
never command my respect, and should never
get the vote of Georgia. As to Grant I have
said ns much of him as he has ever said of
himself, nnd he cannot, therefore, say I have
treated him with disrespect. As to Colfax, I
am not sufficiently acquainted with his past j
history to do him full justice, but I am inclined !
to think that if his mother in his infancy had
been told that he would ever have been a can
didate for the Vice Presidency, she would have
gone stark crazy. Those nieu of to-day will
pass away, but the principles of our govern
ment will continue to exist, and the people of j
this great country will yet vindicate them.
Passing by the double-faced financial plank ’
in the Chicago platform, that infamous instru
ment announces to you that a white man’s !
government shall be guaranteed to the people !
of the North, but negroes are good enough for I
Georgia and the people of the South. They !
have not denied it; they cannot and dare not; j
that the negroes shall have the right of suf
frage, the jury box, seats in the Legislature
and on the bench, aud that it it is all right
that this should be the case. The freemen of
the Last and West, aud of tliu Middle States,
aaid “ no, we are entitled to a white man *
government and will have it.” It was written
down in cold blood by the Wilsons, the Ste
vens, the Sumners, and the Butlers, that the
people of the South must submit to negro su
premacy, but not the people of the North ; that i
these negroes are the proper persons to govern j
and control the people of this good old Com. !
mouweahh. Can you welcome such people I
to your hearts and homes? They are not
wort j of your respect and confidence, much 1
-tss >our tospitality. They are your euemies,!
and I state it calmly; Uad they been friends !
L “ Ve maJe thi3 public decU - !
ration of hostility to you. Bid them defiantly j
the Siru ^ le if JOU are. !
WUt then, must be our feelings agai
men of Georgia who travelled ‘
miles to Chicago to hel
platform
the
sands of
9 them to build such a
meu whom you raised from the dust
and elected to power—who joined the stranger !
and then, with your enemies, declared that!
you deserved the fate of being put under the I
ban of negro supremacy? I speak of them in
nnmeasured tones. I mean the delegates to the
Chicago Convention. I speak Dot harshly but
hard tmths. A friend told me, the other day,
that by a speech I made at Davis’ Hall I made
a half dozen votes for Joe Brown, and I have
come tc make another half dozen for him to
day. Brown ancKwiis associates were at Chi
cago, and joined in pronouncing the doctrine
that a rigger is good enough for Georgia, but
not good enough fot Ohio and New York. If
niggers are good enough for Georgia, it is that
kind of Georgia of which he is. Let him go
with the negroes; they Hre good enough for
him. nnd they should be left with him. Now
that’s six more votes for Joe Brown. I’ll give
him about three more and quit him. White
men of Georgia,cut loose from him; overboard
with him. When I see a white man talking to
Brown, a feeling of revulsion comes over me:
when I see him talking to a nigger, I am sorry
for the nigger. That’s three more votes for
him.
I say to you that you owe it to the noble
dead to turn your backs upon the men wbo
seek to dishonor their memories. Oh, Heaven 1
for some blasting word that I might write in
famy npon the foreheads of such men; and
when they die may they find a final resting-
place under the mudsills of a certain ancient
institution. There have been amongst as men
from the North—men high in military and
civil life. These men are now about to return
to their homes, their families and friends.—
They came here and found our country devas
tated, our people overwhelmed; they have seen
the wrong done ns, our citizens carried to dun
geons, and from there to cotiits which have
no constitutional jurisdiction over them. I
ask them to tell these things to the people of
the North; that they have seen men, upon
whose character not one blot rests, driveu from
from the polls ; that they have seen the poor
negro fill up the ballot box that formerly re
ceived the votes of the good men and true of
Georgia; that in my own county of Clarke the
seats of some of our best men, among whom
was the gallant Delony, filled by two illiterate
negroes ; that in times past the good men as
sembled at the Capitol to inaugurate the Gov
ernor, bnt that never was any man placed in
that chair save in response to the will of the
people of Georgia; that on the 4th of July
Georgia was summoned by Radicalism to :ts'-
seuible in Convention on Capital Hill; that
there were twenty white men there; that a
motley crowd of negroes were there, and that
they talked of Georgia; that a man who bad
been honored by Georgia was there, and that
be called the black mass “my countrymen.”—
(II they are, let him nnd his countrymen go to
a more congenial clime. Africa bids him come,
but it dou’t know Joseph as well as I do.) 1
ask them to tell the people of the North that
that is the people who now control Georgia.—
And I ask them further to say that on the 23d
of July there was another assemblage. Come
and look upon these daughters of Georgia and
tell me, gentlemen of the North, in your hearts,
is it right and proper and just that these beau
tiful women and children — our sisters, our
wives, our little ones, our brothers, should be
placed under negro domination—those who
assembled here on the 4th of July? When
you go home and receive the cordial welcome
from that wife, that mother, that daughter, re
member, I beg you remember Georgia. Tell
them that not a daughter of Georgia bowed
her head to the yoke; that her noble men have
submitted only to power superior; that kind
ness could have won them, but that all the
bayonets in the world cannot make them forget
their manhood.
The speech of Mr. Cobb found an echo in
every heart. There were sublime passages
which we have not pretended to give. On
concluding, Gen. Toombs shook him warmly
by the hand and congratulated him, showing
how truly great intellects can appreciate each
other.
Mr. Hill was received with deafening cheers.
He said he was glad to see before him this vast
assemblage of the true men and women of
Georgia. He asked for silence while he should
be speaking, and the audience bear in mind
that he had to follow two gentlemen than
whom there were none more eloquent on this
continent. Besides his own physical condition
was, at present, far from being strong. The
history of the past twelve months was, to him,
full of rejoicing. During that period the
white race of the South had shown more he
roism and endurance than was ever manifested
in a hundred battlefields. It was no new thing
for a people to be conquered, but there was
something dearer than life or property which
your enemies sought to destroy. Thank God.
you still have it as a people. Your enemies
have not been able to destroy your honor.—
That honor was involved when they put the
proposition to destroy your Government and
give another, formed by foreigners, and re
cently, when you were to be deprived of knowl
edge and virtue, and you were asked to submit
to a Government formed by your former slaves.
Had you accepted it yon would have been
slaves, for none but slaves could accede to
such conditions. They wanted your infamy to
spring from your own consent. When millions
of freemen were ordered to sacrifice their
honor at the bidding of hate, (and there were
some who whispered it ought to be done,) my
heart, I must confess was tilled with anxious
apprehension. But the great point of conse
quence with me was the attempt to induce
white men to seal their fate with the infamy of
their own consent. I wanted the record made
that the white people of the South spurned
the ofleriug. That’s why I wrote; that’s why
I spoke; that's why I despised the infamous
and defied the powerful. They sent down'an
army of bayonets to make war upon an un
armed people; they bought up the men whom
you have houored to co-operate in the foul
work. (Cries of Joe Brown.) I did not call
that name. It should not be mentioned in de
cent company. I affirm it here to-day. that
every white man who supported Radical recon
struction in Georgia was bought up by your
enemies with a price. That price has been
partly paid,-and you are now expected to pay
the balance. I watched the so-called election
for a so-called Convention, and I have a way
of finding out more than they would be willing
for me to know. I was in New York city at
the time, and I was rejoiced w hen the telegram
brought me the news that on the first day the
white people had kept away front the polls.—
I feared, however, that they may have been
crowded from the ballot-box by the scalawags
and niggers. But when later telegrams pour
ed in bringing the same joyfui intelligence, I
was proud to Know that my people were true
to their honor and themselves. I sought re
spectable men aud told them the white people
of Georgia had not voted in that election.—
They were surprised, and said to me: “ Why
vour people are more honorable than we gave
them credit for.” Ah, my friends, you are poor
—you were betrayed—yon were threatened.—
It was a miserable threat. The bayonet said
that a convention was ordered. No one or
dered it but the bayouet and scoundrel. I
stand prepared to prove that the convention in
Georgia was defeated by 30,000 votes. Proud
people, the verdict you gave was that heroism
still dwells with the white men of Georgia.
The convention assembled and a Constitution
was framed according to dictation. The ap
peal to your fears had beeu exhausted, so, to
buy you up, they put the Relief clause in the
uew Constitution. The negroes and scoun
drels who put it there, did it with the distinct
knowledge that it would be stricken out. They
put it there to purchase you. The question
was: How many white men in Georgia are
willing to be niggers to get their debts paid?
^ W e made the fight; the white people of
Georgia, by an overwhelming majority, could
not be bought, and the honor of the white race
was preserved. You who voted for the Con
stitution to get relief, are worse off than the
negro who thought to get 40 acres of land and
a mule, and to be the equal of the white man.
Oh! ye poor victims of hypocrisy to whom
God gave a white skin by mistake; who sold
yourselves for the privilege of being as good
as a nigger; how do you feel after getting to
be a nigger and having your debts to pav to
boot? Run to the military before they go
away and beg them to burn the record. The
people of Georgia, under threat of the bayonet,
and under the aobes of their poverty, have ■
said to the world that they can neither be i
frightened nor bought up to repudiate the r
honor. Counting the honest registered voters,
Gordon was elected by a large majority and ‘
ibis Express Agent defeated. They cannot,
say that a majority c* - the white people con- 1
sented to it. (A voice—“ Keep np the agony.
Ben.”) I affirm rt,nnd the Express man knows j
it, that we carried the election by 10,000 votes.

A Constitution has been adopted that
guarantees to all free and universal educa
tion, equal political and civil rights, aud
restores to us self-government.
It should not be forgotten that this
Constitution has been framed by dele
gates who were elected under the law
which gave the bondman the irresistible
weapon of the ballot.
The wisdom and moderation with which
this privilege lias been received should
overcome all prejudice, quiet all fears,
and lead us to appreciate the justice of
enfranchising the freedman.
With a territory of magnficent propor

resources—we have but to apply ourselves
to its development to reap a bounteous
reward.
By united efforts in the enforcement of
civil law; securing to every one the law
ful expression of their political opinions,
and the enjoyment of the results of their
labor; we will invite within our borders
an increased population to share with us
the comforts of our climate, and the
wealth of our agricultural and mineral
productions.
Humbly trusting in the sustaining grace
of the Great Ruler of us all, I shall en

go buck into the Union as the unequal of the
other States. Yc renegades ! Ye have sullied
the bright escutcheon of your ancestors, and
bowed your neck to the Radical yoke that you
might vote yourselves $8 per diem during a
few short days of summer. Ye disuniouists,
who disgrace humanity, how dare voa call
honest meu rebels? You have not ouly agreed
to State inequality, but to individual equality.
You couldn't tell the truth if you thought it
was your interest to do it. I thank you to-day
that in this barter you were so considerate as
to leave such gentlemen as I am out of your
infamous bargain. While vo ing equality on
the negroes you are voting inequality on the
whites. Vile renegades from every law of
God and right of humanity! ye are trying to
deceive the negro. If the negro is permanent
ly to vote that right must be given him by the
white people of thiscountiy. Ah! ye rogues,
that tried to steal your neighbor’s property
and could not do it, are not you caught—
I caught by Sunnier and Stevens and their mis
erable crowd? Oh muthers, teach it to your
I children as you rock them in their cradles,
; that these meu have consented lor Georgia to
go back into the Union as an unequal State.—
Yc would-be members of the Legislature, you
have agreed to the degradation of your own
race, and you have agreed that that degrada
tion shall he permanent. The question is
whether the programme shall be carried out
in the Presidential campaign? That is where
Grant stands; that is where Colfax stands,
and that is where you, ye vagabonds, stand.
Where do we stand? We stand tipoa two
great principles—the equality of the States
and the superior blood of the white man.—
Come, go home to your wife, wash with soap
and water, put on a clean shirt, and come back
I to us. Some of you I should v be sorry to tike
hack so soon ; but in view of the tact that
your wife never agreed with you, you’ll be ad
mitted, provided your wile is willing.
I want to know how many men in Georgia
are willing to vote in November that she, that
proud old Virginia, on whose bosom repose
the ashes of Washington, and which gave
more Presidents to the whole country than
any other State, is not the equal of Rhode
Island? (Cheers for Virginia.) How much
property does the thing, called a Legislature
Dere, represent? Scarcely enough to pay the
per diem; and yet they are to say how much
taxes we are to pay; they’ are to be our law
givers. Shame! shame! Why there is but
oue of them that owns anything, and he stole
it. But, my* friends, we are not dishonored.
Spirits of our departed heroes! we are not
dishonored yet.
Is it to be the terms of the new Union that
the States are to be unequal, with negro do
minion, pauperism triumphing, ignorance rul
ing? Nay, such will never succeed. The
whites have refused their assent, and, ye hyp
ocrites, you can never accomplish auythiug
I without them.
It is well known that the Supreme Court—
six or eight of them—made up their opinion
| that these reconstruction measures are all un
constitutional ; but they were too cowardly to
I pronounce it. Tire MoArtlle case was thrown
I overboard, but there is another to be aetqd

worthy to be a Governor of any* country. This
very Court will yet pronounce a righteous ver
dict The dread tramp of Democracy is grow
ing more and more distinct from Maine to Cal

When the people come to the rescue then this
cowardly Court will pronounce the reconstruc
tion acts unconstitutional. When this isdone,
and your nakedness shown up, what will be
come of you ? Victory is coming. Our com
rades are sleeping on tue banks of the Etowah,
at the foot of her iron mountains, on the banks
of the great Mississippi, all over Virginia more
proud than the pyramids of Egypt. They are
not dishonored yet. The true and noble are
still living nnd taking courage—singiDg the
notes of coming triumph. Men everywhere
are declaring that this shall be a Union of equal
States or no Union at all; that those whom
God made superior shall never be debased.
The vile, the corrupt have taken possession
of our high places, but we are not stripped of
our honor. Thank God, we can make laws for
our homesteads yet awnile, and I charge you
now. ye women, never allow any renegade who
voted your State into vassalage to darken your
doors again. These miserable wretches have
used every means to sell you and all you hold
most dear. “A people who will not resent

Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Last February I
was in Louisville purchasing drugs, and I got
scire of your Sarsaparilla and Cedron Bitters.
My son-in-law. who was with me in the
store, lias been down with the rheumatism for
some time, commenced on the Bitters, and soon
found his general health improved.
Dr. Gist, who has been in bad health, tried
them, and he also improved.
Dr. Coffee, who has lieen in bad health for
several years—stomaeh and lirer affected—improv
ed very much by the use of your Bitters. In
deed the Cedron Bitters luis given yon great
popularity in this settlement. I think I could
sell a great quantity of your medicines this
fall—especially of your Cedron Bitters and Sar
saparilla. Ship me via Memphis, care of lvick-
ett & Neely. Respectfully, C. B. Walker.

To my U. States and World-wide Readers.
I have received many testimonials from pro
fessional and medical men, as my almanacs
and various publications have shown, all of
which are genuine. The following letter from
a highly educated and popular physician in
Georgia, is certainly one of the most sensible
communications 1 have ever received. Dr.
Clement knows extictly what he speaks of, and
his testimony deserves to be written in letters
of gold. Hear what the Doctor says of BULL'S
WORM DESTROYER:
Vi llano w, Walker County, Ga., 1
June 29. 18Gfi. j
Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: I have recently
given your " Worm Destroyer” several trials,
and find it wonderfully efficacious. It has not
failed in a single instance to have the wished-
for effect. I am doing a pretty large country
practice, and have daily use for some article of
the kind. I am free to confess that I know of
no remedy recommended by the ablest authors
that is so certain and speedy iu its effects. On
the contrary they are uncertain in the extreme.
My object in writing to you is to find out utxm
what terms I can get the medicine directly
from you. If I can get it upon easy terms, I
shall use a great deal of it. I am aware that
the use of such articles is contrary to the teach
ings and practice of a great majority of the
regular line ot M. D.’s, but I see no just cause
or good sense in discarding a remedy which we
know to be efficient-, simply because we may be
ignorant of its combination. For my part, I
shall make it a rule to use ail and any’ means
to alleviate suffering humanity which 1 may be
able to command—not hesitating because some
one more ingenious than myself may have
learned its effects first, and secured the sole
right to use that knowledge. However, I am
by no menus an advocate aud supporter of the
thousands of worthless nostrums that flood
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh is heir. Please
reply soon, and inform me of your best terms.
I am. sir, most respectfully,
Julius P. Clement, M. D.
BULL’S SARSAPARILLA.
A Good Reason for the Captain’s Faith.
READ THE CAPTAIN’S LETTER AND THE
LETTER FROM HIS MOTHER. •
Benton Barracks, Mo., April 30, I860.
_ Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Knowing the'efli-
ciency of your Sarsaparilla, and the healing
and beneficial qualities it possesses, I send you
the following statement of my case.
I was wounded about two years ago—was
taken prisoner and confined for sixteen months.
Being moved so often, my wounds have not
healed yet. I have not sat up a moment since
I was wounded. I am shot through the hips.
My general health is impaired, and I need
something to assist nature. 1 have more faith
iu your Sarsaparilla than in anything else. I
wish that that is genuine. Please express me
halt a dozen bottles, and oblige
Capt. C. P. Johnson,
8t. Louis, Mo.
P. S.—The following was writted April 30,
1808, by Mrs. Jennie Johnson, mother of Capt.
Johnson.
Dr. Bull—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C. S.
Johnson was a skillful surgeon and physician
in Central New York, where he died, leaving
the above C. P. Johnson to my care. At thir
teen )*ears of age he had a chronfc diarrhea
and scrofula, for which I gave him your SaFsa
parilla. It cured him. I have for ten years
recommended it to many in New York, Ohio
aud Iowa, for scrofula, fever sores, and general
debility. Perfect success has attended it. The
cures effected in some cases of scrofula and fever sores
were almost miraculous. I am very anxious for
my son to again have recourse to your Sarsapa
rilla. He is fearful of getting a spurious arti
cle. hence his writing to you for it. His
wounds weie terrible, but I believe he will re
cover. Respectfully,
Jennie Johnson.

DR. JOHN BULL,
Manufacturer and Vender of the Celebrated
SMITH’S TONIC SYRUP!
FOR THE CURE OF
AGUE A AD FEVER
OR
CHILLS A AD FEVER.
The proprietor of this celebrated medicine
justly claims for it a superiority over all other
remedies ever offered to the public for the safe,
certain, speedy and permanent cure of Ague and
Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short
or long standing. He refers to the entire
Western and South-western country to bear
liim testimony to the truth of the asseition,
that in no case whatever will it fail to cure if
the directions are strictly followed and earned
out. In a great many cases a single dose has
been sufficient for a cure, and whole families
have been cured by a single bottle, with a per
fect restoration to the general health. It is,
however, prudent, and in every case more cer
tain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller
■ loses for a week or two after the disease has
been checked, more especially in difficult and
long standing cases. Usually, this medicine
will not require any aid to keep the bowels in
good order; should the patient, however, re
quire a cathartic medicine, after having taken
three or four doses of the Touic. a single dose
of BULL'S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS
will lie sufficient.
