Ulysses Hayes vs. Blaine.
A wicked party slaughtered Blaine
And gent him to the pines of Maine,
I he orator of latter days
Because Ulyses wanted Hayes.
May Ingersoll in silence weep,
As now hte voice is hushed to sleep,
1 lie champion of brighter days,
When HouestSam has vanquished Hayes.
What We Need,
We need a reformation, sure,
A turning to the right,
A man whose heart is true and pure
To lead us into light.
We need an honest president,
With wisdom in his ways,
A different man from U. S. Grant,
Or Hutliford B. Hayes.
Hurrah for Uncle Sam!
We Abk ?
God bless the year of Seventy-Six
And give us TilTen and Hendricks,
A Washington and Adams now.
Bpt to Thy will we ever bow,
We freely auk, Thy will he done,
And ask for one more Washington.
We pray for person, state and land,
To hleg§ each 30yd within her stand;
Increase pure freedom through the year
Remove the rings, make duty clear.
Wo ask to bless each freedom’s son,
And ask for one more Washington.
UeiL Colquitt’s Remarks,
Mr. President and Fellow Dem
ocrats : I thank you most heartily
for the kindness and the unanimity
of supuftyt whfoh Jl3§ hppii shown ?pe
and which so far exceeds any confL
dence that I may have in my own
worth and merits, and places me un
der such ft weight of obligation that
I shall riot pypn hHeipt f,Q ejmvpss
my appreciation of it. Surely no
man ever had greater reasons for
thanks and gratitude, and it is due
to myself and to you to say that
while I fiye I shall remember with
the profoundest feelings of gratitude
the display of favor which you have
made to 4}C to-day. And if I shall
be called by the Voice qf t't+P people
to official station the reoolleotion of it
will be an .incentive to do my utmost
to subserve the interests of the State
and advance the happiness and pros
perity of the peoplp. [Applause, J
I feel the compliment all the more
in the light of the warmly champion
ed candidacy of other distinguish
ed fellow-citizens. Their merits,abil
ities aud patriotism, their capabilities
for the exalted office, for which they
were proessed by their friends. 1
warmly unite in endorsing, and I ac
cept the preference which you
have made, in no vain oonoeit that it
is in any respect a tribute to superior
excellence. [Applause] I accept,
gentlemen, the standard which you
to-day have plappd in my Iwbd 3 apd
I trust that it will he so borne during
the canvass as to lead to victory, and
if victory is achieved, that in its re
! suits neither you nor a too partial
consistency shall have any reason to
be ashamed of your standard bearer!
[Cheers.] But I know you too well
not to be fully aware of the fact that
you will expect of me, if elected, the
exhibition of my appreciation in the
aptsjpf an administration rather than
in any wards that J might speak here
to-day. [Applause]
We are entering upon the cam'
paign in which there are involved in
terests of stupenduous magnitude.—
Upon our side we are contending for
peace, fraternity, economy, honesty
in office and freedom from the clap
trap of bought political power, the
elevation of the government from
menial hands to those in which there
will be found an illustration of the
purity and high character ot the men
who founded our institutions and im
posed upon ns the responsibility ol
their perpetuity. We are confronted
by a great party which practically, if
not avowed, says it is for sectional
hate and agitation •, that it will deny
to one-third of the people of these
States the blessings of a union based
upon free thought and political equal
ity ; who think the offices of this gov
ernment are party chatties to be fill
ed with office holders who, but for
their positions, would be dependent
upon the charities of the world. [Ap
plause.]
Since the war we have sought
peace; and through all our trials and
Protean hues and shapes of recon
struction we have meant peace and
the recorded facts of our history
prove it. On the hustings,in the pulpit,
in the columns of the press and from
he bench lessons of charity, good
will and harmony to all classes of
our fellow citizens have been taught
and insulcated with a sincere purpose
[Loud cheers.] But 1 shall not de
tain you to-day, gentlemen, with an
elaborate speech upon the great na
tional issues. We have illurtrated
in the administration of the State of
Georgia since it was committed to
the democratic party that no one of
the rights or privileges of any good
citizen of the country has been denied
him who had a right to claim them,
[cheers.] And in the same line to
which I have made reference, it will
be the duty of that officer who shall
be called to preside as his successor,
to continue. [Cheers.]
Gentlemen, without going any far
ther, and without any premeditation,
allow me to say that while I receive
your tandard with great diffidence,
distrustful of my own powers, yet
strong in the purity of my intentions,
I believe that with your earnest co
operation we will vitalize the demo
ciatic party aud give a government
to the yyuiitry which will encourage

industry, unite a divided people and
, a token of peace, harmony and
happiness under the providence ot
God, at the coming of which wc*
might bow down in humble thanks

again, gentlemen, for your great
kindness. [Prolonge applause.]
The Platform.
Hon. G. N. Lester, of Cobb, said
he was instructed by the committee
on business to report the following
resolutions as the platform of the
democratic party of Georgia.
PLATFORM.
We, the chosen reprentatives of
the democratic party of Georgia,
in state conventionjassembled, do
make the following declaration of
political principles aud party pur
poses, and we invite every lover of
constitutional liberty and good
government to co-operate with us
in maintaining and carrying the
same into practical effect;
Resolved 1. We re avoiw our
thorough indentification with the
great national democratic party of
the United States, and aocent the
platform of principles and policy,
recently promulgated by that par
ty at St. Louis, Missouri.
2. The recent nomination by the
national democratic party, of Sam
uel J. Tilden of Now York, for the
office of president, and of Thomas
A. Hendricks of Indiana, for the
office of vice president, meets our
hearty approval, and we do hereby
pledge our democratic brethren,
North, South, Eeast, and West,
that we will put forth the most ac
tive, earnest and energentic effort
to secure the triumphant oleotion
of these distinguished citizens to
the ltigh offices for which they
have been named as candidates.
3. We declaye without oquivocas
tion, that we are decidedly and
firmly in favor of retrenchment
and reform in the administration
of eyery department of the govern
ment, stafco as well as federal, and
we sincerely rejoice that the na
tional party with which we are
identified has placed itself definite
ly fold scpiarcly upon a platform
that begins, continues and ends
witli the doctrine of purification
and reform in every place, and in
everything connected with the gov
ernment, and its administration.
4. We do hereby specially en
join upon the nominee of this cons
ventjon, if the nomination shall be
confirmed by the people, to carry
into full praetieol effect, the princi
ples of retrenchment and reform
herein before set forth, and his ac
ceptance ot thß candidature to
which we invite him, will bo
deemed a distinct pledge on his
part, that if elected, he will so ex
ert the influence and power of his
offjcp, as to reduep lessen
the public expenditures, fold lift,
as far rs in him lies, the incubus
of “huid times” from the people.
5. We hereby pledge to the peo>
pie of Georgia our earnest efforts
and jealous co operation to perpet
uate a just, impartial and economi
cal administration of the affairs of
the state, to the end that law and
order may be obtained, the public
peace conserved, labor disburbened
and energised, confidence between
man and man restored, and the
prosperity and happiness of the
wholejpeople placed upon a sound
and enduring basis.
A resolution was introduced by
Mr. H, Gregg Wright, of Rich
mond, expressing the hope that the
next legislature would pass a bill
providing for an election by the
people to determine whether or
not a convention shall be held, for
the purpose of framing anew cons
stitution.
After an animated, parliamentary
skirmish over the relation of the
resolution to the platform, it was
withdrawn.
The platform was unanimously,
adopted.
Child Trust.— The apostles
nude courageous answer to the
Sanhedrim but it was courage
bom of a faith that trusted God in
storm as well as in sunshine. The
frightened child of a sea captain
once rushed out of the cabin in the
night, and cried out, “Where is
father? where is father?” Then
they told her, “Father is on deck
guiding the vessel and watching
the storm.” The little child imme
diately returned to her berth, and
said. “It’s all right, for father’s
on deck.” Let all the Lord’s peo
ple who are iu danger or trial, or
sorrow or direst need, know that
God is on the throne always, and
knowing this be brave and confi
dent even in great extremity. He
careth for His own, and is able
and willing to do for them just
what they need—exceeding abun
dantly, more than they ask or
think.
Attention. —If we read with
out inclination, half the mind is
emyloyed in fixing the attention,
so there is but one-half to be em
ployed on what we read.

Lamar’s Speech.
On the 2nd inst. the House went
into Committee of the whole.
Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi, pro
ceeded to make a speech on politi
cal subjects. lie commenced by
saying that it could not be truth
fully asserted that the practice and
peculiar system of measures adopt
ed by the present administration
commanded the approbation of a
majority of the people; but that
on the counary, the sentiment with
which the american people regard
ed the conduct of national affairs
was one of very decided dissatis
faction and despondency, accompa
nied with a strong andhntenso do*
sire for a change. There was a
deep and anxious protest against
the methods of the administration,
the tone and character of public
service, and the principles of legis
lation that had marked the aefion
of the Government for many years
past, and yet it was remarkable
that this popular feeling had pro
duced no change in the administra
tion. Such a development of pub
lic sentiment in England would
have produced a change in the ad
ministrative agencies of the Gov
ernment within twenty .-four hours.
He attributed the absence of re
form to the principle of centralized
party organization, which garris
soned the country with 10,000 of
fice holders aud 100,000 expectants
of office. He quoted from the
speech of Mr. Sanford iu the recent
Republican State Convention of
Massachusetts in arraignment of
the Administration, which [speech
ho said, if it had been made by a
Democrat would ha ye been
regarded as a gross partisan exag
ration? ani] yet that convention and
its members were in active co-oper
eration with the very Administra
tion thus characterized, aml hold
up to public poprohension, in the
support of a political party which
had endorsed that Administration
and had in return been endorsee!
by it.
It was utterly impossible that
the reforms desired could be effec
ted by continuing in power that
party whoso debasement of iho oiv
il service of the country aud whose
corruption of the administration
was the thing to be reformed. The
success of that party would givo
impunity to the corrupt practices
that are the subject of such univer
sal condemnation.
But it was said that the advent
of the Democratic parly to powGr
woqltl endanger the permanency of
the new institutions established by
the war, and there was apprehen
sion that what was called the
Southern sectional combination
would be by ought bnck and, there
fore, the people were not prepared,
for the mere sake of correcting the
disorders of the Administration, to
put^these new institutions into the
hands of those who originally were
opposed to their establishment.
TXe appreciated the value ot these
gravo apprehensions. lie would
speak however, in behalf ot a peo
ple who have accepted with sincer
ity the results of the wai ; who
felt that they had on them the
burden oi recovering the confidence
of the nation, and who feltj assured
that, with a better knowledge of
their purposes and motives, they
would receive that faith and confi
dence which is necessary to bind
together various sections of the
Republic in the bonds of peace—a
peace which, in these days of par
ty disccrd, he fearod was almost
past understanding. He did not
believe the apprehension growing
out of the united support by the
Southern people of the Democratic
party was well founded, or that it
should staud in the way of the as?
pirations of a great people for
progress aud reform. The idea
that the South, under any combi
nation of parties or circumstances
would ever again obtain the con
trol of this giant republic and wield
its destinies against the will and
instinct of the mighty people, was,
of all ideas, the most visionary and
baseless. The people of the South
wore prostrate. They had been
defeated in war aud made to feel
that the sacrafices and humiliations
and helplessness of defeat had been
allotted them as their share, while
the people of the North had reaped
the rich results of a victorious war
and hail embodied and guaranteed
them in the very life and Constitu
tions of the nation. The institu
tions of the South had been shat
tered and destroyed ; her industries
had been disorganized ; every foot
of her fertile soil sterilized by an
all devouring taxation ; her educa
tional interests waning and lan
guishing, and her population was
so feeble, iu comparison with that
of the great North, that with the
South united, black and white, it
would be impotent to secure a sin
gle Southern man or to defend a
single Southern interest. It was
therefore absurd for a great people
to apprehend that the people of
the South arrogated to themselves
the ruling of the iutereats of this
great nation. There was no aspi
ration which they had that was not
l>ounded by the horizon of the Un
ion. If they were united with the
Democratic party, it was not for
the purpose of sectional aggran?
dizement; it was not for the pur
pose of reversing the politics of the
Government, but it was because
tbev had observed an instinctive
and imperative law of self preserva
tion.
He proceeded to argue against
the idea that accession to power
of the Democratic party would sus
pend the supervision of the Nation
al Government over the conduct of
affairs m the South, and that such
suspension would imperil the right
of the colored race. He quoted
from a speech made by Senator,
then Governor, Morton of Indiana,
in 1863, against eonferiag the fran
chise on the colored race, and iu fa
vor of postponing their political
rights for ten, fifteen or twenty
years, at which time, he argued,
the states would have been so com
pletely filled up by immigration
from the North and from Europe
that the negroes would be in n per
manent minority.
If that distinguished statesman,
away up in Indiana, had sucli a
view of the effect ot negro citizen
ship what must have been the ap
palling feeling of Southern society
in which that avalanche was to he
let loose. Was it to be wondered at
that the people of the South,at that
time endeavored to save themselves
from that shock ? He claimed,
however, that, after the system be
came fastened upon them, they had
striven earnestly and honestly to
give it a fair and free development,
and that they might have succeed.-
ed, in some degree, but for the
measures which had been adopted
iu consequence of the conflict be
tween Congreess and President
Johnson, the worst of which meas
ures was the establishment of the
Freedman’s Bureau, which had cut
the racos right assunder. The in
evitable effect of* that reconstruc
tion policy had been to draw one
race to its support and drive the
other race to its opposition !
lie quoted Gibson, the historian,
as saying that the most absurd and
oppressive system of government
that could bo conceived of was that
which subjected the natives of the
country to the domination of his
own slave, and also quoted John
Stuart Mill to the effect .that when
a Government is administered by
rulers not responsible to the peo
ple governed, but to some other
community, it was one of the worst
of conceivable governments, and
lie said that the hideous system,
established iu the South, was a
composite of those two vicious sys
tems. The people were subjected
to the determination of their for
mer slaves, and were ruled over by
people whose constituents were not
the people for whom they should
act, but the Federal Government.
He quoted, from the report of
the Louisiana Investigation Com
mittee to the last Congress, made
by Mr. Foster, of Ohio, and ex
presses his astonishment at hearing
that gentleman claim credit the
other day for having made a re**
port which bore heavily on his
party. Was it a condition of Re
publican success, he asked, that the
country be told that there was mur
der and intimidation on the part of
the white people of Louisiana
against the blacks, when the facts
were not so? Did it bear haid
upon the Republican party to state
that there was no such state of law
lessness and intimidation among a
people who were writhing under
all the oppression which corrup
tion could invent?
He also quoted from the subse
quent report, made on the same
subject by the other sub-committee
which went to New Orleans—
Hoar, Fry and Wheeler—and from
the president’s annual message, in
which he acknowledged that the
people of the South had had vile
and oppressive governments to live
under, and he asked how it could
be expected to find quiet, orderly
and law abiding communities whose
Governors were lawless felons,
whose ministers were thieves and
whose magistrates were scoundrels.
This race problem was not inca
pable of solution. Two statesmen
such as Lord Derby and Earl Rus
sel would settle it in three days.—
The people of the South would be
content to withdraw from partici
pation in the Presidential election,
if they could do so, and let the
people of the North elect a Presi
dent. But they could not impose
upon themselves a stolid inactivity.
All they wanted in uniting with
the democratic party was—not to
rule Cabinets, not to dictate policy,
not to control the interests of the
country —but they wanted a repre
sentative share of the responsibili
ty and benefits of a common gov
ernment, according to the measure
of their population and race. They
were now co-operating with the
democratic party with a dire and
inexorable necessity, and only iu
the hoj* of getting an administra
tion that would not be unfriendly
to them—that would not feel itself
commissioned to execute oppression
upon them. They wanted to get
an administration which, in place
oi the forces of conquest, subjuga
tion and domination, would give
them amnesty and restoration to
the privileges of American citizen
ship—an admistration which would
allow them equality of considera
ti°n > equality of authority and jus
risdiction over their own affairs,
exemption trom the domination of
election by bayonets ; that would
give them local self government,
and then the country would, at
least, see the dawn of prosperity in
all the industrial enterprises of the
North. It would see a true South
ern renaissance—a real grand re
construction of the South. It
would see her rising from her con
fusion and distress, rejoicing in her
newly acquired liberty, free, great
ami prosperous her sons and
daughters of every race happy in
smile and getting this benignant
republic in the words of the in
spired poet: “Thy gentleness has
made thee great.” (Loud and con
tinuous applause.)

THE ISSUES OF TIIE CANVASS IN
WORDS THAT BURN AND
BLISTER.
At the Tammany Democratic
ratification meeting in New York
Tuesday evening Mr. Charles A.
Dana, the editor of the New York
Sun, one of the old antislavery
leaders, and assistant Secretary of
War under Mr. Stanton, and the
manager of the Tribune under Mr.
Greely, when it was the great abol
ition organ, made the following
speech :
I have, come to Talmany Hall
with great pleasure to aid in rati
fying the nomination of Samuel
J. Tildcn j applause] and Thomas
A. Hendricks as the candidates of
the Democratic party. in my
judgement it is of the greatest im
portance to the people of the coun
try that these candidates should be
elected, and I will join hands with
any man who desires and labors to
assure their success. I know both
the candidates, and lam sure that
by their election, and administra
tion the government will be res.
formed ; that the corruption which
now threatens to destroy free in*
stitutions will bo stopped ; that the
enormous taxes which cat the fruit
of labor will be reduced ; that the
stagnation of industry and the de
pression of business which deprive
so many men of all employment
and turn skilled laborers and their
families out to starvation, will be
ended, and an era of new activity
and prosperity be begun for the
country. [Applause.] The Re
publican party has been in power
lor fifteen years, and see where it
has brought us and where it has
brought itself. One member of the
Cabinet is now under impeachment
for bribe taking; another more
guilty, but more cunning that he,
deserves impeachment, and, I trust,
will get his deserts [applause]; an
other, lately Seereary of the Inte
rior, having committed grand lar
ceny in his office, resigned to avoid
impeachment, and another, lately
Attorny General, having commit
ted petty larceny, was finally re
moved from his place through a
contemptible social intrigue. Such
are the representatives of the lie
publicon party in the heights of
power ; and going down from that
elevation, we find everywhere cor
ruption, venality contempt of law
and plunder of the taxpayers. One
would suppose that the decent men
of such a party, seeing its condis
tion, would be overcome by a sense
of shame and would require it to
step down and out, to hide its face
and to die from among men : but,
instead of this, it conies forward
with candidates and a platform to
ask for the votes of the people, and
to make a fight in the election.
The impudence, the effrontery of
this proceeding exceeds everthing
ever heard of before ; and yet we
have here the same managers who
have brought the Republican par
ty into this condition, with Zach.
Chandler at their head, talking
about reforming the civil service
and restoring the earlier purity of
our politics! Do they expect any
body to believe them ? Is there
any considerable number of fools
in the country who can again be
deceived by such fraud ? These
are questions which the election
will answer, and answer, as 1 hope
and trust, by putting Sam Tilden
[applause] in power and establish
ing the St. Louis platform as the
charter of a real, radical and last
ing reform. [Applause.]

M e have been requested bv many
to correct a misapprehension re
garding the action of the Baptist
Church, which many editors have
made through careless reading.
They say, and Kendrick and ins
friends are endeavoring to create
the impression that the vote for
expelling him from the church was
ootbr to 31 against. This is er
roneous. A committee was ap
pointed to rejiort to the church
on his case, which was done. The
majority report was he be exj>ollod
lor adultery ; the minority that lie
be expelled without any cause be
ing assigned—both reports were
lor expulsion. For the majoritv
report 35 voted, for the minority
34—-the entire 69 for his expulsion
These who had defended him
warmly and obtained all the evi
dence for him possible voted for
his expulsion. It was unanimous.
1 here’s not one of the entire mem
bership of over 300 that would not
have yoted for the expulsion as the
09 did—all present on that occa
sion. The expulsion was the
unanimous voice of the meeting.
