lßtere«tioir Letter. St. Lous, Mo., Oct. l«t, 1872. Editor McDuffie Journal :—l went to Atlanta and on the following Tuesday was present at the Great State Demo cratic meeting, so advertised. True, considerable money had been expended in preparing for the meeting, but all the inducements held out failed to at tract a crowd, and all the eloquence of the distinguished orator failed most signally to arouse any enthusiasm. 1 attended the meeting, both day and night, and left Georgia fully convinced that it was impossible to get up any enthusiasm for Mr. Greeley outside of those who were on the lookout for some office, and lam not surprised at it; for all know that the Southern people have no love for Greeley, and if they vote for him it will be because his elec tion promises more for the South than Grant’s. We have tried Grant, and know that he will not do. Wo have seen that he is incompetent for the of fice of president, and we have seen fur thermore, that be has surrounding him, the most corrupt ring that has ever dis graced any administration. On the other hand, Mr. Greeley promises a re form—promises amnesty, equal rights and justice to all—promises to make his appointments, irrespective of party, from among the heriest and capable men, and it is by virtue of these prom ises that I believe the peop'e of the grand old State, (my native land, and proud lam of it.) Georgia will vote for Mr. Greeley in November next. Leaving Atlanta on the 24th, I reach ed this city in 36 hours, via Nashville and Columbus Ky. Here I found every body talking politics and eager to have the news from all sections. Nearly every morning some of the dailys have glowing accounts of some ward meet ing of the city. On Friday night last there was a grand parade and torch light procession of all the Democratic clubs in the city, the occasion being the raising of the flag at the Central County Committee headquarteis. The processions was seen four miles long, all dressed in ap propriate uniforms, each carrying his torch, accompainied by about a doz en brass bands. Thousands of specta tor* thronged the streets, and upon the whole it was a creditable display in behalf of Mr. Greeley. Speech making and considerable enthusiasm were man ifested|lor the ‘ SngeofChappaqua.” The crowd was so dense I could not get in hearing distance of the speakers. If erery State in the union was ascertain for Greeley as Missouri, Mr. Grant had as well commence preparing now to make his exit from the white House. The great St. Louis Fuir will com mence on the 3d inst., and continue ten days. Already the crowd has com menced coming iu, and by this time next week their will no doubt be 50,000 strangers in the city. The liberality of the merchants and manufacturers of St. Louis in offering SIO,OOO premiums for cotton will no doubt attract a great many representative planters from the South, and I am glad to suy that a bale of McDuffie county cotton will be on exhibition, and from the simple which I have seen, it stands a very good chance for a premium. Great preparations have been made for the Fair by the officers and citizens generally, and there is every reason to believe that it will be the largest gath ering of tbe kind ever held in the U. S. I believe, too, we are to be honored (or imposed upon) with a visit from his ex cellency the president of the United State—so-called. Till then I am Yours &c., R, S. R. Ladies sometimes do not value their husbands as they ought. They not nn frequent y learn the value of a good hus band, for the first time by the loss of him. Yet the husband is the very roof /tree of the edifice—the keystone called •home. He is the bread winner of the family—its defense and glory—the be ginning and the ending of the golden clgin of life which surrounds it—its coiDsello r > law-giver, and its king. At a lengthy conference between Grant and Blaine at the Fifth Avenue HtfJiri, Tuesday, it was decided to send the! whole Cabinet to stump Ohio im uu-J lately. jl Milton Turner is the name of the col ored Consul to Liberia, who has come from Africa to stump Missouri for bis task master.
