In the n time the Northern t arties to conspiracy do their part. The publican papers, from the Pencil)- t to the Golden Gate, hawk in son over the atrocious \Mj Wages coni ted by the southern whites upon negroes. ‘'The Republican, pnr- 1ms not completed its mission,” ey cry, “while the f reedmen are un- otected from the confederates!" is they use as an argument why the eople of the North should turn as in the days of the war, and [ipport the republican candidates for ice. we have every reason to be- ove that the negro riots will con tin e in the south during the remainder f the political campaign. They are part of the Rci ub'.ican working Cap- tnl. But it will be well for all Dcmo- iratic papers to expose the reasons why here are riots and how hollow is the patliy of Radicalism for the blacks. Troops in the South. As predicted, the near approach of the various elections has' caused the North to renew the hackneyed cry of rebellion iu the South, and the Pres ident has ordered troops to be station ed at various places in the South. A specious excuse has been giveu for this movement by three or four out rages committed by ruffians, bnt for the past six months the South has been far surpassed by the Northern States in the nnmber of assasinatiens and lynchings. Yet little is said about Northern outrages. The hue arid cry now raised against the Sonth is only for political effect, yet we fear .it. will, have nsufficient effect to elect a large Radical majority to Congress. Thus, the passage of the-'social rights bill, so pregnant with ills to botli the white and colored races. Cur feeling toward the administration h,as*not abated one iota, bnt we do say that the ruffians who have given an. appa- • rent excuse for further oppressions should lie brought to speedy justice. The evil effects of any outrage will be reflected upon the entire community, no mntier whut the color of the Vic tim may be. : Our Ccngpeis’onal Nominees.

Simmons has been for many years a resident, and has always had the respect and confidence of all who know him. He is endowed by nature with that sound judgement and discretion so rare in. these days, and is one of our most substantial citizens. S. 33. Brown, Esq., is comparative ly a young ruuu, and is full of zeal and industry. He is not only -a granger, but an extensive planter, be sides he possesses the additional ad vantage of bring well posted in legal questions. F< s- two. years paf t he fil.ed ! the office of Mayor of Fort Valiev with j credit; and he is a man: of sterling in- j tegrity. Both of the above gentle men are personal friends of the wri i ter, whp knows them to be thor oughly sound on the bond and other- lead ing questions of the day. Mr. John R. Wimberly is an exten _ j sive planter, and a gentleman of edu cation an<l-ref;pemeur. Personally we have but a slight acquaintance with him, but his letter of acceptance has the ring of the true metal,—and if elected we believe he will ever be ionnd advancing the interests oi Geor gia and Houston county. The Fir. tThourand Dcl’ars- The following extract we take from tlie New York Independant, and com mend to the careful consideration of the boys and yonng men who are a- mong our readers. The first thousand dollars that a young man after going out into the world to act for himself, earns and saves will generally settle the question of business life with him. There may be exceptions to this statement; yet, for a rule, we think that it will bold trne. The first condition is that he actn ally earns the thousand dollars in qnesfi m. He does not inherit thb stun. It does not come to him by a streak of good lock, as the result of a fortunate ventnre in the purchase and sale of a hundred shares stock. It is the fruit of personal industry. He gives his ime iud labor for it, Whil< he is tlins earning and saving it, he must earn two or three, or perhaps four times as much to pay his current expenses. He is consequently held sternly to the task of industry foi a considerable period- The direct con sequence to him is steady, continuous .and solid, discipline iu the habits of industry-in patient, persistent, fore-' casting and self denying effort, break ing np all the tendencies to indolence and frivclty, and making an earnest watchful economist of time. He not only learns how to wi rk, but he also acquires the love of work; and more over he learns the valne of the sum. he has thus saved ont of liis eaanings. He has toiled for it; he has observed its slow iiicrei sa from time to time, and iu iris estimate it represents so many months or years of practical labor. His ideas of life are shaped by his own experience. These natnraV eff -nts of earning the first thousand dollars we hold to bo very large benefits, They are just the qualities of mind and body which are most likejy to sr- eure business success in after years. They constitute the best practical ed ucation which a man can lave ns a worker in this working , world. They are gained iu season for life’s purposes, at the opening period, when foolish notions are most likely to mislead an inexperienced brain’ and when, too, there.is a full opportunity for expan sion and development in later years. Men have but one life to live, and hence, they start from opening man hood but once. Aud the mnuner in whieh they start, ’ the purposes they have in view, and the habits they form will ordinarily determ) the entire se quel of their career on earth. To suc ceed; men must have the elements of successin themselves! One great rea son why there are so many useless, in efficient, and poverty-stricken men on earth—or,rather,- boys seeming to be men—consists in the simple fact that they did not start ngb*. A promin-mt. reason why the children of the rich so frequently. amount to nothing may be found in the luxury, ease and. in dolence, which marked the commence ment of their lives - It is the law of God that we should be workers on |artk;.nncl no one so well consults the best development of his being ns when he conforms his practice to this law. The workers in some suitable sphere are the only really strong men in this old.. The Markets- Mn. Editob.—Within a few days just passed the price of com has ad vanced nearly ten per cent. This is re markable, or engbt to be, especially as the time is at hand to gather the plentiful crop about which so much has been said and written. There is, no doubt; a reason for this advance, and there may be a large nnmber of intelligent m-m in fbe conntry who suspect what that reason is AH who do not, will find it somewhat interest ing to inquire. Knowledge gained with an effort is worth more. If your correspondent should profier the in formation lie would be called a “town farmer.” Bacon, as well as Prof. Doraidso'n, is on the rise, and the rapidity , of Its ascent is almost romantic* or some thing. Perhaps it will serve to feed the multitudes of staid and ^radical men who for ten years have been building castles in the air. A “square meal” of salt swine may.cnre some of' them of the afflatus, and lead them to think after all that it may be betjer to dig dirt than to fly kites. If ft is really and. truly ont of the question, as some say, to raise hogs m this counts y, a good many people wiU | do Well' lb read np in the Mosaic law to convince themselves that anyhow it is wrong to eat swine flesh—and certaiuly it is at present prices. The cotton market for the new year is fairly open, and buy ere are taking readily all that is offered. Prices are two cents lower than they were in the corresponding day of last year, and if any man is prepared to give a satifac- tory reason for this he will please step to the front. Last year the markets advanced about three-quarters of a cent before the middle of September, but sustained itself at the advanced figures only a very few. days. Buyers declare that September .purchases al most invariably loses them money. What is to be the teudency of the market all men can predict—and miss it. .He who has the discretion to sell near home, and the nerve to sell when the market is strong, will not often have reason to call himself a fool. Everybody kfistf's this, but it seems to New Advertisements.
