. The Elections.
A , great and 'inexcusable blunder
fins been, made by the compilers' of
fhe new Code in the ' election law.—
tlie law as there laid down is very
different from that in the Constitu
tion of 1868, as well os the statute of
1872;' which -regulates the time of liold-
.ing olectiohs.' The election for mem
bers of the Legislature's on, the 7th
—first Wednesday in October; for
tnoml.iers of Congress on Thursday,
fhe 3d of November; and for county of
ficers nu Wednesday, the 6th of Jan

Thiv crowning scheme of p ftisan.

gia send a delegation which will bi
unanimous, and give forth no under

tion.

Freeman, of Griffin, has been again
nominated for Congress from this dis
trict by the Radicals. He is the pres
ent incumbent. When the supple
mentary civil, rights bill was called up
iif the House, Freeman voted to sus
pend the rules- and take- it up, w r ell
kilowing that it would pass, as it did
in the Senate, by a party' vote. It is
a party measure. The Democratic
minority ilave been fighting it bravely,
and so far' have prevented the two-
tliirds majority necessary for it to go
into the consideration of the bill.—
By his recorded vote Freeman is the
avowed advocate of social equality.—
Don’t let him dodge this issue, but
make him fairly face it.
White men, arise! awake! Perfect
your organizations. Call on your
neighbors and their wives and daugh
ters-to stir up the people to battle for
,ce. Let every White man with
out reference to former political al
liances, come out. and boldly cast his
be llot against this monster iniquity.

Dear Sir,—When you sent me the fifty saw gin,
you requested me when I tried her to let you
know how I liked her,: and according to your
request I will do so., Yesterday afternoon I
timed her. I ginned one hour and thirty minutes
on a pile of‘cotton that was too damp to be in
real good order.* I then packe d the cotton put-

weighed it and it weighed 514 pounds. I do not

exchange her for no 50 saw. gin of any other
make,- Magnolia not excepted.

The work originally^pnblished under the title
of The New American Cyclopaedia was completed
in 1863, since which time ihe wide circulation it
has attained, in all parts of the United States, and
the signal developments which have taken place in
every branch of science, literature, and art, have
induced the editors and publishers to submit it to
.an exact and thorough revision, and* to issue a
new edition entitled The American Cyclopae
dia.

made ill new work of reference an imperative

with jt^disco veries of .science, and their fruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and

and a new course of commercial and industrial
activity lias been commenced,.

The great political revolutions of the last de

It is our desire to call the attention of all persons interested in Houston County to
the above named paper, aud to present a few reason why those who are not already sain
seribers should take it. The Houston Home 3ottbnai, was established in 1870, tai
is now in its fourth annual volume. It has become an invaluable medium for commu
nication with oar people, and their appreciation is evidenced by the fact that it now-
located on a permanent and paying basis.
1st It is conceded to be one of the very best weekly newspapers in the state as well
as one of the largest, Few papers in the state can eqnal it in tlie quantit;. and quality
of its reading matter, or in size and neat typography.
2ud It is your connty paper, and county pride should prompt yon to give it a lib
eral patronage so that it go on in improvement until it stands anieng the most com
plete journals of the day.
