if anything is despisable it is a
fawning sycophant. Men who have no
opinion of their own or do not dare to
depress otte have few to respect them.
Gen. Robert Toombs is a man we do
not admire in many respects, but his
remark on independence of opinion is
characteristic; and profanity excepted,
a good rule. Gen T. says “I will al

care a d—n what I think.”
Its Doing Good.
The “‘civil rights” agitation has had
a great effect in arousing and uniting
the democrats of Tennessee; and in
driving from tffe Radical ranks many
hundred white men in the eneterri
part of the Slate. It is now confi
dently said that the election in the
fall will shown great political chaDge.
Instead of three Democrats and seven
Republicans, as. the Congressional
delegation is now divided, the Dem
ocrats count on electing seven at
least. They also expect to secure the
Legislature and a United States Sen
ator in the place of Brownlow, who
will not die, but whose term will ex
pire next March. All the Tennessee
Radical Cougessmen, excepting two,
oppose the civil rights hill, but they

Shocp Husbandry.
It is certainly profitable to keep
sheep on a farm if rightly managed
—oven though the price of wool is low.
They arc scavengers on a farm -death
to all weeds aDd slirubs that are an
noyance to^he tidy farmer. Besides,
the Bpriug lambs; if a careful selection
6f breeds is made, will he found profi
table to sell, especially the males, in
the market, Americans are’ eating
more riud more mutton yearly. -The:
object o" the shepherd should be to
adapt his sheep husbandry to the
wants of the market nearest him—
grow the kind of wool that pays the
best; or if the carcass is more in de
mand, grew the sheep which; make
the most and best meat in the short
est time, always taking into account
hardiness and easiness of keep.
HonJ .bnD. Stiwa t,
t)f Griflk, the people’s choice for rep-
- resentativeyn Congress from this dis
trict, is by nature, a gentleman, and
by induslry and energy has become
ono of the leading men of'Middle
Georgia. Occupying responsible po
sitions in • tho past,- he has had*-splen
did opportunities of becoming pro
found inall those qualities of head
which constitute the statesman. Add
ed to all this his unswerving integrity
and exemplary piety, make Inin the
peer of any man in the State. He is
now in the prime of manhood, being
forty years of age. Ee is a native of
Middle Georgia, having been horn in
Fayette county in 1834- At the age
of twenty years he located in Griffin
and engaged in teaching school which
he continued four years. During this
time ho read law and we believe was
admitted to practice in tho several
courts m 1858. He soon entered
thereafter upon practice and obtained
a lucrative bnsine-ss, whic'h he has. al
ways retained.
He served as a Lieutenant for ..some
U|im® in the gallant 13th’Confed. Reg-,
but was; in consequence of bad health,
forced to resign. He held the office
of Ordinary of Spalding county for
' eight years, and represented this
county in the State Legislature during
the sessions 18G5—’66. Ee was form
erly a partner of Judge G. «T. Green,
who the people of Tike loved so well.
Uince the war lie has’been in partj^r-
sliip with Hon. C. Peepies, of Atlanta,
Sind is now the partner of Judge Alex.
M.Speeiv Thus it will be seen that
his associations have always been
with the best legal talent of the land.
In politics he is a democrat, and such
is his honesty.-.that we don’t believe
that-he could he bribed or bought.
In religion he is a Baptist, having
been ordained minister of that church.
He is.ajtprcs.ent, we believe, is a Mod
erator of the Flint Ijiyer Assouia-
ranks? Union is success; division is
defeat. Select good men, able men
to lead yon, and give them a united,
hearty, cordial support. Be not di
vided by local issues—beware of jeal
ousies arising from “cla ms overlook
ed,” “stocked conventions,” and per
sonal predjiidices. These are. weap
ons furnished by a skillfnl enemy to
break your ranks and defeat yonr
cause.. Look with’ distrust upon
“people’s - tickets,” “citizen! ’ candi
dates,” when brought forward in op
position to yonr regular nominees.'—
They ore subterfuges generally of dis
appointed aspirants, ;,wlio are hsed
by the opposition to defeat your or
ganization.
We cannot afford to destroy or weak
en the Democratic party. It has res
cued the-State from Radical mis.rule;
it has broken the alliance that existed
between power and . crime; and has.,
checked the system of public pin nder
wliidh Was driving'our people to bank
ruptcy and “uin, it has restored the
control of (he gove.-nmeattothe virtue
and intelligence of the State; it has
given Georgia a position in the Union
beyond that of her unfortunate sis
ters of tLe South. Will you, relying
upon yonr majority, grow listless and
nnconcerned? Remember bleeding
Sonth Carolina, Will yon split into
petty jealousies and endanger your
success? Think of down-trodden
Louisiana. Will yon, by a thirst for
position and place, distract and di
vide your forces? Look at plundered
Florida, and determine, that in this
contest, patriotism shall guide your
actions, and loye of State control
your aspirations and your hopes.
Yonr defeat is Radical rule, and
Radical rule is oppression, civil rights
bills, plunder, bankruptcy and social
degradation. Yonr success gives as
snrance of constitutional government,
enforcement of law and maiutainancc
of right. The cause is worthy of your
efforts—its success should be the day-
star of yonr ambition. Individual re
sponsibility is essential to a favorable
termination of the straggle. Let the
campaign be quick, sharp, decisive.—
Look well tp yonr nominating conven
tions. See to it that nene but men
of integrity are offered to tbe people
for their support—men who will spurn
the rings who wonld raid upon your
treasury—men who will look only to
Georgia’s iuterest and honor. With
snch men to bear yonr standards you
will command, a victory. In the Fed
eral elections there is great need of ac
tion. Indifference, before, gave Geor
gia men in Congress who wonld have
inflicted upon the white people of the
State in j nries nnd insults too revolting
to conteinplate. justice toyourselves,
justice to yonr children, justice to
peace and nnd good order, justice to
humanity, justice to an ignorant race,
whom they would ruin under the guise
ol friendship—all require of ns active,
decisive dibits, .unceasing labor, to
brand these men with the seal of con
demnation, and remove them f refill a
position they have degraded and dis
graced.
Men of Georgia! the issue is with
you. It is big with consequences,
Do your dnty, and all will he well with
you and yonr .noble old State.

P, C.Sawyer, Esq,:
Dear Sir,—When yon sent me the fifty saw gin,
you requested me when I tried her to let yon
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 apQe of cotton that was too damp to * be in
real good order. I then packed the cotton put
ting 7}^ yards of bagging on the hale. I then
weighed it and it weighed 514 pounds. I do not
hesitate to say she is the fastest and picks as
clean as any gin that I ever saw ginning. I would
exchange hey for, no 50 saw gin of any other
make, Magnolia not excepted.
Yours Respectfully
