lb* iUme #0um*. MANEUVERING OF RAILWAY KINGS. ESTABLISHED IN 1843. lation in Cherokee Georgia, nnd is the best ad vertising medium in this section. M. »WL\ELL, Proprietor. Tuesday Morning, Nov. H, 1879 Eveky once in a while some paper has something to eay about secession. Why, bless your soul, don’t you know that secession, Boh Toombs and Alec Stephens are dead issues ? Wonder ip Akerman is for Grant? When Grant relieved him of his port folio as Attorney General it was said that Akerman was too honest to hold office under Grant. Who said it ? When you see the word "rental” in print or hear it used nowadays, you may be pretty sure. that the person using it means “rent,” and not “rental.” But then it looks bigger to use a word of two syllables, you know. Wit is like good butter. If you have but a limited amount to give, please do not try to cover too much space with it —do not spread it too thin. We like butter thick enough on the bread to show the print of the teeth. Now, since a few office-holders and some office-seekers are declaring for Grant, the publication of Felton’s cor respondence with Ferry and other prom inent Radicals last year might not prove detrimental to the doctor’s success as a double-barre.lled office-seeker. It might “snow under" and "squelch out” Aker man’s prospects. Cincinnati in order to have indepen dent railroad connection with the Southern and Southeastern seaboards with the attendant results of the large traffic that naturally arises along lines of trade between the South and- the North, has expended nearly twenty millions of dollars to build a road con necting with the roads that diverge southward toward Charleston and Sa vannah on the Atlantic and New Or leans and Mobilo on the Gulf Jfrom Chattanooga. Of these two connections the ono with the eastern coast over the W. & A. R. R. of Georgia is the only really desirable one, as Cincinnati and all other points in the Northwest can use the groat nat ural highway of commerce, the Missis sippi river, to New Orleans, which pre sents as great facilities for shipping heavy freights as can any railroad line and at much lower rates. The Cincinnati road being nearly completed to Chattanooga, we see it stated that Col. Cole, President of the Nashville and Chattanooga railroad company, has purchased a controlling shore of the interest of the lessees of the Four years ago, when Hayes beat glorious old William Allen for Govern or of Ohio, the cry went up that the Radicals would sweep the country in 187G. But they didn’t. Tilden was elected and Hayes “counted in.” Next time if a Democrat is elected, as we may reasonably hope will be the case, you bet he will be “counted in.” The Democratic Party of New York. “As New York goes in 1879 so goes the Union in 1880.” These are the words of ono of the most far-seeing of Republicans journals, uttered a few days before the election. We heartily re-echo the prophesy which they contain. Last Tuesday New York registered herself in the list of Democratic States for the ensuing national contest. Her intelligence scorns the blatant demagogue’s shibboleth of the “bloody shirt.” Her clear vision penetrates the fog of stalwart sophistries and fixes itself firmly on the objects of a wise conserv- tism. Friends of the Constitution and lov ers of Jeffersonian principles, take heart from the fact that the brightest star in the constellation of American States Western and Atlantic railroad, and it I shines steadfastly on the pathway that is done no doubt for the purpose of i leads to Democratic victory!—Now using this great thoroughfare in the in-1 York Star, terest and to tl e advantage of the N. & ' Zach Chandler wnsChairmau of the Republican National Committee, and his death necessitates the election of successor. Cornell wantB it, and so do many others. Cornell thinks he is “biger man” than anybody since his election to the Governorship of New York. Kelly made him Governor— would not it be more appropriate to give Kelly the placo ? Among our clippings to day are short articles giving expressions from Sena tors Vance, of North Carolina, and Hill, of Georgia. Both these gentlemen in form us .that they have no particular choice of men as candidates for Presi dent in 1880, but are both ready, will ing and determined to support the nom inee of the Democratic convention. With such sentiments on the part of the Democracy success is certain. Writing not long ago of New York political affairs, the compositor trans formed our “Kelly” into “Kellogg,” and careless proof-reading on our part left it uncvrrected. The mistake caused us considerable annoyance, which contin ued until we found that the Dalton Headlight had discovered it and tried to make fun of us about it. Any error glaring enough to be detected by the Headlight is too patent to do any harm. Unless the American people have lost their inborn lovo of freedom and are willing to cut loose from nnd forget the traditions of the past, U. S. Grant can never be elected again as President Office seekers, office-holders, timeserv ers and trimmers may favor him, but the patriotic vote of the people will con demn any attempt on the part of Grant or his followers to inaugurate a mon arcliy by saying that one man alone of all the people is worthy of their suffrage C. road and its connections and exten sions to the Northwest, and to give, ns far as favoring rates can give it, the through business from the eastern sea board of the Southern States to the Northwest, nnd vice versa, to the N. & C. railroad. This would be a magnificent project with glittering prospects for the N. & C. R. R. if the great line from Louisville to Nashville was dependent upon the N. & C. road, but. this last road owning or controlling a line to Montgomery, Ala., is independent and really a rival of the Louisville and Nashville road, and the Nashville road is dependent in a great measure upon the Louisville road. But in order to obviate this diffi culty and to become independent as a North and South through line the Nashville and Chattanooga company through Col. Cole, has virtually become the possessor of the W. & A. road to Atlanta, and is preparing for an exten sion of its system to Evansville, Ind. on the on the Ohio river. This project of the N. & C. road ac complished, that line will be a contin uous one ftom Evansville on the Ohio Atlanta. The Louisville road has as already stated, an unbroken route from Louisville to Montgomery, Ala, The Cincinnati Southerc, when com pleted to Chattanooga as it will be in few days, will have to depend upon tl W. & A. R. R. for a means of forward ing and receiving its freights, with that road controlled by a rival system, or look to the Great Southern road which tends toward New Orleans and the Mississippi river. Now that it will be futilo for a circuitous railroad line to try to compete with the Ohio and Mis 6issippi river steamers in the carrying of freight from Cincinnati to the South west is apparent at a glance, so Cincin nati will be forced to look to the South east and South direct for an uutrara meled outlet to the seabourd. This to be obtained at slight cost by lending assistance to the project long ago inau gurated, of building a line from Chat tanooga, Tenn., to Columbus, Ga. Acts of incorporation for the links of this great enterprise have been H. H. J., in an editorial letter to the Macon Telegraph has to this to say of Senator Hill: On the train last evoning as we re turned to Macon, the writer encountered this distinguished gentleman. He is decidedly reticent as to any preference for the next Presidential candidate, but will support the nominee of the Democ racy. In regard to Senator Bayard’s claims, he thinks that his hard-money proclivi ties would not he any objection to him, as the Greenback movement has greatly subsided, and that issue since the suc cessful inauguration of specie payments is no longer a practical factor in the so lution of the financial problem of the country. Mr. Hill thinks the recent elections are by no means discouraging to the Democracy, nnd all that will be needed next year, is a “long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together,” to ensure the triumph of constitutional liberty. It is going to happen that a few of the officeholders and many of the office- seekers who have been loudest in con demnation of the Democratic party, as a party, because of the crookedness of few put iD office by the party, will be fore long bo outspoken in praise Grant—but they will never say a word about Babcock, Belknap, Boss Shepard and the countless throng of robbers of the public crib that Grant put and kept in office, and he kept in more than one after their guilt waB known. But the idea is that Grant will be successful, and that Ts'what controls these place-hunters. Colonel Luther J. Glenn says that the Democratic party committed suicide during the extra session of Congress by an overdose of States rights mixed with clerkships. We are inclined to think that the latter part of his statement about the overdose is correct. We don r believe, however, the party is dead.—At lanta Constitution. No, not dead by a long shot; and we do not doubt that the same remark was made by various people when tho De raocracy of the Fifth Congressional Dis trict with Col. Glenn as the nominee was defeated in 1872 by a Republican “0, yes, tho Democrat committed sui cide when they nominated Col. Glenn and the party is dead,” was no doubt said by somo and hoped by many, but the Fifth has ever since been faithful and been represented by Democrats No, the old party is only going through a purgation preparatory to tho grandest fight ever made at the ballot box for the principles of civil liberty. A few Jo nahs pitched overboard and the sea will cease from raging, and the good ship sail Btnoothly on. istence several years, and consid erable work has been done at various points on the line, and now cars are running some thirty miles on theline from Columbus northward. True it is a narrow guago road, but it can easily be changed. The following from the Chattnnoog, Times of last Saturday shows that the people of Chattanooga are looking their interest in this matter; hut, as we have said, the Cincinnati Southern will be compelled to look an extension tho direction of Romo and Columbus since the water route over the Ohio anc. Mississippi rivers becomes a rival that cannot be successfully fought in the carrying trade to New Orleans and the near Southwest: The idea that any road can long enjoy a monopoly of any particular railroad business is a delusion and a snare. The longest pole, i. e. the best equipped and managed road, takes the business per- Cincinnati Commercial, Ind. Rep. The election of Cornell, under the cir cumstances, with the rest of the Repub lican ticket defeated, is a poor sort of Republican victory. It certainly does not authorize Senator Conkling to rise in the next Republican national conven tion and claim that the State of New York would vote for Grant, and for no other Republican candidate, and he must therefore be nominated. On the contrary, the Republicans of New York arc admonished that if they would not permit their State to become a province of the solid South, they must escape from the Conkling machine which is victorious only with the co-operation of the Tammany machine. After all, the next Presidential election must fought on its merits. It has not yet been de cided. Memphis Appeal: People along the line of the Mississippi and Tennessee railway say that the quarantine has served ono good purpose by affording the laboring class in that region an op portunity to gat out of a serious trouble in precluding the possibility of going deeper into debt, and thus compelling them to pay what they owed with the money that would otherwise have been squandered in oxtravagance. The coun try merchants have [succeeded in col lecting outstanding claims, and many bad debts, and it is said there is now more money in the country than has ever been .known at this season of the year since tho war closed. simmon. The Cincinnati Southern is the shortest, as it will be the cheapest and quickest, line between tho central North and the central South. In con nection with the Ala. Gt. Southern, it will bo the shortest and best route from Chicago, IndianapoliB, Cleveland and Cincinnati to New Orleans, and of course this covers the whole Southwest sugar, cotton and eattle producing country. Now, if the great capitalists who will control the C. S. desire a lino to their liking, direct from their southern ter minus to the Gulf, they can get it by extending a helping hand to the enter prise now in active development, for a road from this city to Pensacola, via Rome, Columbus, etc. They can got that connection in less than ten years at a nearly nominal cost to them, and when they have itr—as they will—their whole line will—provided in the mean time a close alliance is formed with the Alabama Great Southern—be the most , complete and valuable system of North j and South transportation and travel on I the continent. The Ohio, which is a mile wide Louisville, Ky., in ordinary stages water, is now reduced to the width of stone throw, nnd is in fact but little more than a succession of great puddles- Whoro tho river usually stretohes out broad and rough, nothing but bare white rock is to be seen, and the novelty of tho thing is so great that the peoplo of Louisville throng the empty river bod soeking for shells or pretty stones or simply to enjoy tho unprecedented spectacle, and ono day lately it was esti mated that 10,000 persons were ramb ling over tho dry bottom of tho once mighty stream. New York Herald : The thoughtful and intelligent part of the Republican press are very far from exulting over the success of their party in electing Mr. Cornell. They find more of warning than of encouragement in a victory which is due to the Democratic split. Mr. Cornell is not elected by a majori ty, but by a mere plurality. The two Democratic candidates for Governor have received twenty-five or thirty thousand more votes than were given to the Republican candidate. The nat ural inference—the inference which Democrats throughout the country are sure to draw—is that a Democratic can didate for the Presidency popular enough to reunite the party in New York has excellent chances for carry ing the State next year. That is to say, a Presidential candidate who should receive all the votes given to both Robinson and Kelly would dis tance a candidate receiving only the votes given to Cornell. The aggregate vote of 1880 will indeed be larger than the aggregate vote of 1879; but if the same proportions are maintained the reunited Democracy would sweep the State. The actual result in New York, al though discouraging, will by no means reduce the Democratic party to despair. the Democrats are wise enough to profit by their chastisement; if their de feat in a State which is the pivot of the Presidential canvass shall render them more cautious and prudent; if it cures the party in Congress of the kind of antics cut at the last regular session, and, in a milder form, at the extra session, the party will still have a chanco of carrying this pivotal State and electing the next President. Every intel ligent politician has long seen that the Presidential election hinges on the vote of New York. As Senator Conkling Btated in his speech to the Saratoga Convention, and, more recently, in his speech in Brooklyn, tho Democratic par ty needs only forty-seven electoral votes in addition to the one hundred and thir ty-eight of the solid South, and if New York goes Democratic it will furnish thirty-five of tho needed forty-seven. The State of Indiana will supply more than the other twelve. Indiana is a Democratic State, and it has fifteen electoral votes. New York and Indiana together, if both go Democratio, will add fifty electoral votes to the one hun dred and thirty-eight'of the solid South which will make three more than are necessary to elect a Democratic Presi dent. The Democratic party need bor row no trouble about the recent Repub lican victories in the other Northern States if it can carry New York and re tain its hold on Indiana. But without New York it has no possible chance In military phrase, New York is the key of the Presidential position Mr. Cornell had been chosen Governor by a majority, instead of a mere plural ity, the Presidential contest would be already sb good as decided. But inas much as the two Democratic candidates had a majority of the votes between them it is obvious that if all tho Demo cratic votes had been given to one can didate that candidate would have been elected over Mr. Cornell. It is this state of the vote which causes forebod ing anxiety among the intelligent Re publican politicaus of the State, who are more discouraged than elated ovor the result of the recent election. Missouri Republican: The Southern states are receiving their full share of the prosperity that prevails over the land. It is stated by an Augusta (Ga.) paper that the cotton sold last week in that city brought $100,000 more than the same amount would have sold for a year ago, and it is estimated that the October sales have brought planters $9,000,000 more than those of last year not because a greater quantity of cot ton has been sold, but because the priceB are better. The same grade of cotton that last year sold for only 8 cents now brings 10 to 101—making a differ ence in favor of the plant of $10 a bale, and of $40,000,000 to the whole South on the present year’s crop. An un usually cheerful spirit prevails through out the Southern states on account of th ! s advance in price of cotton. The crop is very large and fine, and its movement to market in the next seven months will involve a large and profit able business. mow fever-buck voir, I T IS TOO SOON TO FORQVt on,.. ? f th !* terril, l» RAV. aoubt roturn in a more msli™.’ n t .L* 1 *Ul to form in the fail months of 1879. nu ’buiett MEUREIiL’S HEPatinp _ covered in Southern Nubia, and ’ulsd*®^- wonderful results In South Ams?I».
