GEORGIA DEAOCRA I V.
Three cheers for the DEMOCRACY
OF GEORGIA ! RADICAL RATS,
with yonr sore tails, to your holes!
Pride out Carpet-bag thieves and Scal
awags! or take your dirty “duds” and
still more dirty consciences to some
other land! Lie down Bullock, in
your dark dungeon and bleach your
countenance which has turned ebon
from the exudations of a foul and
tilthy heart! Let us rejoice in the
tact that Democracy has a four years
lease of power on our glorious old
State Let us feel better, for the fact
H:at Georgia's escutcheon will present
the phase of honesty and good gov
ernment. Let us put salve to out
sides and soon heal the gorcings of the
Bullock, and recover wliat went to Air.
Amos T. Akerman. Let us feel that
we have crossed over the Red Sea
and the bondage of Tyranno-Radicnl
ism no longer binds our limbs. Let
us sing, march on! march on! 'till we
route the Congressional enemy and
gain possession of the Presidential
heights.
THE CREDIT IKimniElt.
The “Credit Molclier” was a trick
by which an inside ring of the Union
Pacific Railroad Comp; ny secured an
additional loan from the Government
through corrupt Radical Congressmen,
820,000 per mile on the Pacific Road—
( onguess consenting to relinguish the
first mortgage lien on the road given
to secure the original endorsement of
825,000 per mile and taking therefor a
second mortgage lien.
George Francis Train had a hand in
the affair, and says: “The Pacific
railway hill I machined through Con
gress, saving it with forty-four Demo
cratic votes, who never asked or re
ceived a cent. THE RADICALS
AVER 72 ALL ON THE MAKE !
r iimd Stephens’ share was $70,000.”
In getting the bill th rough, forty mil
lions ot dollars were saddled on the
tax-payers of the Government. The
people see from a disinterested witness,
who works in the halls of Congress for
money, and who for the good of the
people. AN hat better eulogy do you
vaut than for George Francis Train
t o say that the Democrats never asked
or received a cent.
X fav F f.ATI re. —The present admin
istration and its Cabinet carries with
it anew political feature. Never since
we have be been able to read the news
papers, have we seen accounts of the
executive, his cabinet and all the ap
pointees under him speaking and work
ing for re-election. The only idea now
before the officcholds of the govern
ment is that they must be kept in office.
They are running from one section of
the country to the other pleading their
own merits and disregarding and abus
ing their opponents, for the purpose of
retaining themselves in office. From
fifty to seventy-five thousand office
holders are laboring to keep their mas
ter and their superiors in office, that
they may be reappointed. Can the
people reconcile themselves to this?
If there be merit in an officer the peo
ple will see it and desire his re-election
The naval officers have quit their post
and are speaking for Grant. The cab
inet is in the field and the business of
the government and the claims of the
people upon them as public servants
are ignored. They have the treasury
of the government in their hands and
their own merits in their mouths, as
they go through the country, slander
ing, deceiving and bribing their way.
To Orli Straight-Out Friends.—
We call the attention of our straight
out friends to the following utterances
of Wendell Phillips:
Wendell Phillips.—New York, Sept,
14tli.—'Wendell Phillips made a most blood
thirsty anti reconciliation speech at Lynn on
Thursday., lie called Greeley “a bit of wet
brown paper, instead of a man. In conclu
sion he cried, amid wild applause from his
Grant audience, “The reason why 1 support
the Republican party is that to my utter sur
prise, to my indescribable delight, to my re
lief, i have at last, found a party that is will
ing to execute all the laws that are given
them. It is for that reason that I say long
live Ulysses Grant! may lie continue to he
President of the United States until ere.ry
white incut over forty years of age, who lives
south of Mason and Dixon's line has been
forever put into the ground,”
Bear in mind the fact that Phillips
reflects the sentiment- an t feelings of
Grant and the entire Radical pally.
Boutwell, Grant’s Secretary of the
Treasury, meant the same thing as de
clared by Phillips, when he said he
protested against “clasping hands over
the bloody chasm,” that he and his
party intended to fill it up, Ac. Wen
dell Phillips has declared the manner
of filling it up. Grant and liisco-horts
desire to fill up the “bloody chasm”
with the dead bodies of every mail
south of Mason and Dixon’s line,
while Greeley desires to forget the
past, restore friendly feeling and re
unite the people by rejecting Southern
people as equals, and “clasping hands
over the bloody chasm.” AY ill our
Strait-out friends still say there is no
choice between Greeley and Grant.
Mes.rs. Editors: — AYiil you pi care in
form your readers why the article in your
last issue, written in rcjro lingo, and
wound up by a bit o f doggerel, is called, or
beaded “A Hardshell sermon.” Please
point out what is contained in that ailicle
to entitle it to he called a sermon ; and also
inform them wliat idea is intended to be
conveyed by the word hardshell. If it was
intended by the author, (or by you, in copy
ing and publishing it,) as a scurrility oi that
class of people, known by the epithet
“Hardshell Baptists,” then it is only verify
ing the words of Him who “spake as never
man spake”—who told his followers, that
men should say all manner of evil against
them, falsely, for 11 is sake. (Mat. 5. 11.)
And that they should be hated of all men,
for his name’s sake—for their religious faith
and doctrine. (Mat. 10. 22.) In the days of
the Apostles, they, as a sect, were every
where spoken against; (Acts, 28. 22.) and
reproached with the epithet “Babblers,”
or ignorant people. (Acts, 17. 18.) In after
ages, a people holding the same religious
f lith and doctrine, were branded as heretics,
and ironically called Cathuri, or Puritans,
on account of their soriptur.il sentiments
and rigidity o, church discipline, (alosheim,
vol. 1 p. 9(5. Jones’Church history, p. 153.)
Afterwards, a people, holding similar reli
gious tenets, after having their property
confiscated, tlieir religious prosecutors were
reproachfully called “Poornien of Lyons.”
(Gibbon’s Rome, vol. 7 p. 89—93, Mosheim,
vol. 1 p. 331. Jones, p. 256. Jus. 2. 5.)
There were also a people, holding similar
religious tenets, whose “true origin is hid
in the depths of antiquity,” (Mosliim, vol. 2.
p. 127.) who were branded as heretics, and
reproached with the epithet, “H nubuptists,”
and had all manner of evil spoken against
them, falsely, because they do not admit
the pretended performance of the ordinance
of baptism heterodox, and nominal profes
sors of Christianity, nor recognize any other
mode, than by immersion, as scriptural
baptism. In modern times, we find a sect
known by the epithet of “Anti-missiona
ries,” whose distinguishing tenet and reli
gious | cculiarity consist solely in adhering
to that maxim, which has from time im
memorial been professedly held by all
orthodox Christians, as the true and scriptu
ral basis of eclesiastical polity, viz:—“That
the kingdom oi Christ, or the visible church
which lie established on earth, was an as
sembly of true and real saints, and ought
therefore to he inaccessible to the wicked
and unrighteous, and also exempt from
all those institutions which human
prudence suggests, to oppose tiie pro
gress of iniquity, or to correct and
reform transgressors.” (Mosheim, vol.
2. p. 128.) At the present time, there is
a sect which is every where spoken against
on account of their adhering to this maxim,
and more particularly the latter part of it;
and in consequence of this holding to what
they believe to be the true doctrine of the
Bible, as tauget by Christ and liis Apostles.
They are distinguished by the epithet “hard
shellSo that if said article, or its heading
was designed to reflect contumely on that
class, the effect will not, perhaps, be com
mensurate with the design, for these people
together with their predecessors, from the
days of the Apostles, to the present time
have been so accustomed to such treatment,
land having, besides, the assurance of their
divine Master, that such things would be,
they e-are but very little lor it; but it is
neither reasonable nor safe to suppose that
wuiny of them will pay an editor two dollars
per annum, to “make fun of them. \
I would fain hope, for the sake of the
friendly feeling and good will which I have
hitherto entertained for the Editors of the
Herald, that said article was inserted
thoughtlessly, without any contemptuous
design; but its inappropriate and significant
heading, leaves very little ground for such
a charitable construction.
Joel Matiiews.
AVe Answer: Our venerable friend,
Mr. Joel Mathews, for whom we have
the kindest regards, and under no cir
cumstances would intentionally wound
his feelings, calls ns to task for the
publication ofan article in our last issue,
entitled “A Hardshell Sermon.” In re
ply to his first question, we know not
the authors reason for naming the
piece “A Hardshell Sermon,” as we do
not know the author, having copied
the piece from an exchange. -Vs we
did not name it, we do not feel it our
duty to show any reason why it should
have been called a sermon, or what
was intended to be conveyed by the
word hardshell. This belongs to the
author and not to us. AVe can assure
our friend and t-lie noble “class of peo
ple” lie represents, with the greatest sin
cerity and t-ruth, that it was not intended
by us in publishing the article “as a
scurrility'’ or reflection at all on the
Hardshell Baptists. AVe can assure
you also, that it was not inserted
thoughtlessly. AVe can assure you
that it was done without any “con
temptuous design.” Our purpose in
publishing a paper is to advance the
cause of humanity, and do anything in
our power—when we write religion
at all—to sustain the principles and
truths of tflic Bible. AVe were reared by
a mother who taught us to respect age,
to deport ourselves with propriety in
society, and especially to respect re
ligion. AVe should feel that we were
departing widely from the path in
which she started us, if we should set
up to “scurril” or “make fun” of any
denomination. This is the last idea
that our sensible friend should have
permitted to cuter his u bid, and we
hope that he nor ary one el e will en
tertain the opinion one moment longer.
There are many features in society
that are objectionable, and the news
paper must be to them one of the in
struments of destruction.
The drama of the present day is
fraught with evils to society, particu
larly in the Northern States. The
liberal display cf animal comeliness on
the stage seems to inspire the populace
with ccstacy and mirthful satisfaction.
Lydia Thompson’s troupe has just
closed a season at AVallack’s Theater,
New York. The Company is com
posed principally of females, and not
one of them is an actress in the true
sense of the word. At tlieir entertain
ments, the vital ingredient—the potent
magnetic attribute—is the voluptuous
exhibition of the physical beauties of
woman. Everything else is merely in
cidental and secondary. There are
many other things we might allude to
with propriety here, but to the genualn
question. Our sole purpose in copy
ing the article objected to by our
esteemed friend was a lightning stroke
at fashion. V'e thought tlie article
was written to burlesque the fashions of
the day, and copied it on that account.
Everything is Dolly Yarden.
The tide of war, like a besom of de
struction, has swept over our country
and left us, as a people, living in the
sordid hut of poverty Our Govern
ment approaching dissolution and des
potism, and our taxes, notwithstanclii g
our poverty increasing, though already
overwhelming, yet instead of being
iconoclasts, we are pagans to the
wreathed ribbon ; the polished jewels ;
the pomp of costly fashion and the gay,
gaudy glare of vanity .and art, The
fashions of the present da}' are more
fraught with abuse, wrong and evil
than Pandora’s box; and every news
paper in the country would subserve
their purpose and accomplish much
good, if they would pour a volley from
each issue into its costly, gaudy and
glittering ranks. V'e know that some
venerable veterans would be maimed
and mutilated; weknovf that it would re
sult in depriving many a fair soldier
of bright plumage and costly equipage,
but it would improve society, cause
the people to study solidity more,
make the world better, and man would
be freed from the usurped dominion
over his tongue, his actions, and his
personal liberty.
The above is our candid reason for
copying the article. Yfe have seen it
in the columns of a number of our ex
changes, and we sincerely hope our
Baptist friends, one of our best branch
es of support, will not entertain a feel
ing after this explanation.
The New York World says: “Ex'
Governor Bullock, of Georgia, is going
to reveal his reminiscences in a book.”
His “reminiscences” of Georgia are all
told in his pocket-book.

(Jloiiou« News.
The election news is most glorious.
The counties of Baldwin, Houston, Bibb
Monroe, Dougherity, Troup and War
ren, heretofore giving large Radical
majorities have given large Democrat
ic majorities. The returns from the
different portions of the State, show
that Governor Smith is elected by fifty
thousand majority. The heavy majori
ties in every portion of the State show
that the people had desperately deter
mined not to sillier the State to go
back into the hands of the Radicals.
AVe are sorry to say however, that a
few people in tliis county could not
muster patriotism enough to overcome
personal feelings and support the nom
inees. These men are marked and
will be remembered, for the stake was
too precious to allow men to hazard
our * access, bv gratifying personal dis
likes.
The Situation in Rensylvanja.—
The New York Tribune, in speaking
of this State says:
“Friends in Pennsylvania ! as your can
vass stands to-day, nothing but gigantic
fraud can defeat you. A'oil have the honest
votes to elec; Buck:'.lew Governor by 25,000
majority. They man cheat yon 5,000 in
Philadelphia: they count one more than
twice as much, and were yesterday raising a
special corruption fund in this city to buy
your Inspectors. Last night they boasted
that they had succeeded. Show them tied,
that work will be useless! Be warned in
time, too, oftlie danger all along your Mary
land line. For ten days colonization of
negroes from the District of Columbia has
been going on. under the supervision of the
immediate and trusted friends of the Pres
ident, They count on a gain here almost
as great as from the contemplated Philadel
phia fraud. Mon of Pennsylvania! we do
not 1 olive that i ilher the colonists from the
l)’strict, or O’Brien repeaters from New
York, and your native ballot-box staffers
combined, can give the Governor-ship of
your great State to the partner of the
broker-convict now in your Penitentiary.
Give us one week’s faithful work, spot the
repeaters, watch y<lf:r Inspectors, keep
hourly record of the proclamation of the
vote, and see that no votes are counted
without being east; and under the inspiring
leadership of Curtain and Buekalew, your
victory is as certain'as the coming of elec
tion day. But do not, we pray you, mis
take enthusiasm for organization, or reckon
the votes for a victory worth anything till
they are east and counted.
