MORRILL.
Secretary Bristow l a ing resigned, the
President has nominated Lot. M. Morrill,
V. 8. Senator from Maine, to be Secre
tary of the Treasury, and the Senate haa
oouturned the nomination^
M<*riUi#a man of medium ability,
but a strict Republican. Re baa invari
ably supported tho administration, right
or wrong, including the Ueeonatruction
develmeut,.Civil Righta, Force Bill, Ac.,
Ac., and may be relied on to continue in
the tame beaten track of Radical fanati
cism.
He hos'nt the* brain to see the wrongs,
frauds aud corruption in his party, or
the patriotism to assist in their oorrec •
tion. He is simply a party hack, from
whom wo cannot expect even a weak
attempt at reformation, or a cessation of
perseentiou of the South.
It is generally oonoeded that Blaine
will be appointed to fill yet. the uuex
pired term of Morrill in the Senate,

Tn another column we give a full re
port of the proceedings of the mass
meeting of the Democracy of McDuffi*
oounty, held in this place yesterday.
Contrary to the expectations of many,
the business of the meeting, we are glad
to say, was conducted with the utmost
harmony and the best of opler. Unlike
tyfn. recent (Ungraceful proceedings in
Atlanta, there were no “chartered bar
rooms" to demoralize the people aud deal
mmlneaa to the voters. The friends of
(ten. |Colquitt and Gov. Johnson ex
erted, themselves to bring out the full
atre'ngth-of their respective favorites, as
tint heavy vote clearly shows, but beyond
this the result was left entirely with the
voters themselves, and the contest was
conduct! and, so far as we know, with the
utmost fairness. , -
We firmly believed all the whilo that a
eoush.ernblo majority of the voters of
our county preferred Herschel V. John
son for Governor to any man in the
Btu to, mid tkatonr advocacy of bin name
for that position, not only expressed ou r
own holiest convictions, hut eohoed the
, true sentiments of our people ; and the
eleotion yesterday Ims mure than sus
tained us. We trust, therefore, that we
will not lie accused of n spirit of exulta
fiou when wh say that we rejoice at the
result, nnd are proud of our gallant
young oounty. Whatever other oonutiee
may do, McDuffie, at all event*, is
plnoed right upou the record.
Tho hearty endorsement of Mr. Ste
phens is also to ns a aourot of deep grati
fication and pride. The admiration, re
spect and veneration which we liear for
the glorious old statesman of Ljlierty
Hall is too well kuowu to require repeti
tion ; and us loi g as his noble spirit and
pure, brave heart shall animate his frail
body, we hope to see him hi the councils
of the Republic. We honestly behove
that his old crutrhr*, leaning on an
empty ohair in the hall of Congress, will
exerejjee a greater iufiuenoe for good
than Hie entire anatomy of many who
are so anxious to succeed him.
Ar. before stated, the meeting (teased
off without a ripple of discord. The
aupporters Or Oeu. Colqnitt, with the
exception of the few who cannot tolerate
even an honest difference of opinion,
yielded gracefully to the emphatic will
of the majority, and peace aud harmony
now prevail.
Till: republican nominees.
If you are really anxious to have every
act ol your life published to the world,
aud all o r your misconduct exposed, just
run for office; and the higher the office
the more thorough and searching will be
the investigation, and the more heartless
the exposure.
When the Cincinnati convention com
promised their bitter contest by nomina
ting Hares and 'Wheeler, it waa the
general understanding that, although
palpably deficient in all of the essential
elements of statesmanship, and compara
tively unknown to fame, they were
respectable, commonplace candidates,
without records, aud against whom
nothing aeuHurpbio could be charged.
But this seem*4o 1 ave been a mistake :
■The New York Sun, which has done
more to unearth and blazon to the world
the rascalities, corruptions aud frauds of
the present administration than any ether
pa]Kir, has (his to say.,: <
It has been ascertained that Raves was
uuiformily in favor of every land grant
and..every, subsidy brought before the
House during his membership, aud that
Wheeler, during his counectlsa with the
Pacific bUulsoad, Committee, was a prince
among the Credit Mohitier supporters,
.■and advocated every measurt of any
benefit to the land-grabbers. Both
nominees having accepted the boner on
g platform, sue «! the principal plank*
of which deuoiuiced such thieving meas
ure-' at ll:iyw> aud ""heeler supported, it
ia inferred that none knew bettor than
they and their party bow deeply the
peo-ite of the country have bean wronged
by tbn indiasrfmin.its gift of pnblic lea ;a
to railroad reenot-oliea.
In addition to On* aoare ugly develop
ment* are being made in reference to
j Wbcelcrb . tarty political actions, to
which be ia aaooeed of wilful deceit and
i falsehood toward* both the ota Whig
| and Democratic parties. Hi* career a*
an Attorney also begins to pan out some
very disgraoefal, not to say criminal
praettes.
The fact is, that even if these men
were honest and consistent in early life,
their uniforms! aud continued aaaocta
; tion with the Radical party tor so long a
! time, is sufficient of iteelf to have cover
-1 ed their political and moral carcasses
■ with the leprosy of corrupt ton, tbs ex
posure of which most necessarily follow
tbeir nomination.
We await farther developments with
impatieoee, and, in the meantima, advise
yon not to be to too much of » harry to
vote for Hayes and Wheeler.
niSORACRrUL
Saturday last Fulton county held en
election for delegates to the gubernato
rial nominating convention, and if one
half of the transactions of that day are
oorrectly reported, the heading of this
srtiole is the mildest term we can con
sistently apply. The newspapers of the
city, proverbially chary in speaking of
anything discreditable which may trans
pire in their pet capital, arc forced to
admit enough to brand the transactions
of loot Saturday with the unqualified
condemnation of all respectable, law
abiding citizens.
For several days prior to the election
the city papers contained such notices as
the following;
Hurrah for .Tamm !
Call at 14 Marietta street end get a
James punch before going to the polls.
10,000 drinks to be given away to-day,
to all bolding tickets, at the No . Name,
14 Marietta street. ‘
Colquitt drinks free to all holding
tickets, at the No Name.
Colquitt and James drinks free to all
holding of tiokets at the No Name, 14
Marietta street.
Lookout I
Every voter, gat your tiokets and get
a refreshing drink at the No Name before
voting.
The Constitution of Sunday says :
THE OARIUAOR DEAL.
One of the fi at moves made preparatory
to the conflict of yesterday came from
the Colquitt side. It was stated that
they had hired all the carriages to be
had in the city,' and that Mr. James’
friend* would have to make their way to
the polls ou foot. Now this was a point
indeed, especially as it haa been * ttme
honored cuatom in Atlanta for candidates
to furnish their constituents with free
rides ou eleatiou days. But the James
men were not discouraged. They sent
out couriers aud laid the surrounding
oountry under contribution in this im
portant particular. Marietta furnished
four carriages, the oonntry below us
subscribed eight, and many private citi
zens tendered to Mr. James the nse of
their vehiolos. Consequently on yester
day hod the strength of the candidates
been measured by the number of their
carriages it would have been hard to say
which was the atrnugeet.
The same paper of Thursday has this :
When the report become generally
known that all the publio carriages had
been oeoured by the Colqnitt party a
number of citizens called upon Mr.
James aud tendered the use of their
private eouveyauoee.
All parties agree that no election has
ever created to muoh excitement. All
kinds of intoxioating liquors were dealt
out by both the Colquitt and James
party without stint, and the erop of
street figlita and general t’rinkenuess was
in the usual proportion
The polls were kept open about thir
teen hours, during whioh the excitement
was kept at fevor heat, and tbe result of
the eleotion not known until late at
uight. The James delegates were elected
by four or five huudred majority iu tbe
couuty. '' -
We have not room for the details of
this singular eleotion, and would not
print them if we had. We deeply
regret the necessity to refer to them, but
we cannot permit the opportunity to pass
without entering our earnest pretest
against the conduct of the friouds of
Messrs. James and Colquitt on this
occasion.
Mr. James is held up to the country
os a friend of the temperance cause, ass
great moralist, as a bright and shining
light in the Baptist ehuroh, and is a
great Sunday School evangelist; yet
read Uie foregoing odvertiamenta of “free
rides" and “tree drinks" for James
voters, and the aooounta of the subse
quent drunkeunees, street fights sad
general and shameful demoralisation
whioh resulted from his method.of elec
tioneering, and then soy what you think
of the rrligion and morality, of moh a
man, and his qualification* and fitness
tor the high and dignified office of Gov
ernor of Georgia
Gen. Colquitt, if we are correctly in
formed, is a strict Methodist, and the
son of a distinguished minister. His
pablia and private record has been with
out a Messiah, so far as we know, until
resent setae! his so-called friends have
brought hi* name into bad order among
u>u..yfca«T l | nitianna -' -
It will be rather inoctwisaeot for either
of three sspiriMSs for office to ergs that
they should not bo held responsible for
the ecu of their friends, at least in ref
erence to Una Atlanta' - eleotioo. Mr-
James ltraa in the city, and Gen. Colquitt
quite near, and both wan doubtless hi
Atlanta the day of the election and tor
several days previous. The invitations
to the people to get drank opt James and
Colquitt whitfeey wan pwbii.hnd.in the
paper* in Orople tittle ttvhsve received an
indignant denunciation from either or
both of these Chri-tian Statesmen, if
they bad disapproved of that method of
obtaining votes ; but their silent acquies
cence, it not actual approval or com
plicity, if not explained, make them
parties to these diagraoefu! proceeding*.
Gen. Colquitt, who stands first with
many, and second only to Go*. Johnson
with a larger majority of our people for
the office of Governor, has, we regret to
say, chilled the ardor of/many of his best
supporters by Showing his good name to
be dragged in the filth of bar-room poli
tics. He has certainly either surrendered
himself to a mad and ungovernable am
bition, or else he is the victim of over
zealous friends.
.jfierx. —Since the above was in type
the following card from Gen. Colqnitt
appears in the Atlanta papers, which we
print in justice to that gentleman, re
serving our comments until another time:
, TO THE PUBLIC.
Certain publications in the newspapers
of this city in reference to the use of liq
uor in the late canvass, are thought by
my friends to require some notice from
me. I have only this to state, that I
never contributed one cent for the pur
pose, or any' other electioneering pur
poses, either direotly or indireetly.
Whatever may have been done in this
matter, was without my knowledge and
contrary to my well-known wishes.
A. H. Colqnitt.
HANCOCK AND HENDRICK*.
The Northern Democratic journals say
that the above named gentlemen have
recently assumed considerable iinpor.
tanoe as the probable nominees of the
St. Louis Convention, for President end
Vide Pfeshtorlt>.'-<Thi*j it ia assarted, is
because of the strong opposition in the
West find South to Governor Tiidein.j
That such opposition does exist is quite
apparent from the editorials of the lead
ing newspapers, and the letters of un
merons correspondent* ; bnt we doubt if
it is of sufficient strength to defeat Til
den's nomination.
We see it stated that Governor Hen
dricks peremptorily declines to allow bis
nsme to be used as a tail for the Han
cock kite, bnt' this' we do hot believe.
If Hendricks, or any other aspirant for
Presidential honor*, hasn't enough of
patriotism to sink personal ambition for
the good of the country, he daaarvva not
the suffrages of tbe American people,
and his name and claims should be ig
nored ia the Convention.

Editors Journal:
Yon deserve the thanks of many : of
your readers, for the able and timely
defense of Gov. Johnson in no far as the
famous “circular" is concerned. ,1
I have read the “circular" and his
reply oarefully—or both letters, and I
confess my inability to disoover anything
beneath the dignity of honorable men.
When it is manifest, then, that a-body
of friends cannot privately ask the con
sent of an honorable aud distinguished
eitixen to consent to a nomination lor
any office within thMffiJffi pf the people
without ineurringrtbe spleen nud disfavor
of party rale—it well be high time to
dissolve and throw partyism in the shade.
It strikes me, then, the Ring business, is
better known to those who moke such
assaults, for (ear their ring will be inter
fered with.
Gdv. Johnson is not my ohoion for
Governor, but with me, is preferable to
Gen. Colquitt. Junius. '

Fountain, June 15th, 1576. :
Metsri. Editor* :
I wrote yon in my last I was fearful
my friend Col. D. Willis had shot him
self, but he is all right and kicking. He
has been harvesting his erop of oats. I
understand he has made ah extraordina
ry good orop. He oould not shook them
on the land on which he out them, also
be has been giving Mr. George McCord
some important law points, and physick
ing some of his negroes, but I learn they
are all dead. He ploughed up a portion
of his cotton orop and planted it ip corn,
and he is fearful it has turned to riea.
I took a stroll last Friday evening, in
oompany with my cousin J. W. R. to
Mr. feme L. Johnston's who lives about
two miles from Fountain Camp-ground.
We found him hard at work in his cot
ton field. We were received with cour
tesy, spent the night very pleasantly,
mid shared tbe hospitality for which ha
and his good lady are distinguished.
After supper Mr. Johnston ooDeluded to
give ns a bats of fresh honey, ao we
marched out to the bee-gums, and after
knooking off the bead of oue gum found
plenty of oomb, but minus of hanay.
Mr. J. knocked diffi the head-'of the sec
ern! gum, and found it no bettor, ao wa
gave it up. lam fearful it.will be a bad
year for honey.' - I'can say unhesitating
ly without the fear of oou* radioiion that
Mr. J. has the fined cotton crop, so far
as I have seen, in the neighborhood of
Fonutain, and is in fine condition. We
are having genial and refreshing showers
of rain in Ibis section at this time which
makes everything look thrifty and re
freshing. Yonks truly.

Now that I have harvested my iat
crop, and lump threshed out my pet
patch and measured the yield; I will
moke the promised report for public i
tum. They were *oww the noddle of
November, after cotton. If bushels seed
par acre, of jfe otfcjre Mask variety. I
applied as fertiliP* aOhoshel/of oottoq
seed, broadcast, pep acre, all tamed in
together with common one-horse turn
plow. My aim was to select one acre of
the best, and get the yield from it sepa
rately, bnt in my absence the laborers
cut so much of tbe grain, and in each a
manner, that I could not get one acre in
a body, but hid to measure plats in two
sections of the lot to gat Hie acre, which
measuring was done by Prof, N. £.
Ware. From the measured sere we got
78 bushels net oats ; the average yield
per sere for the entire lot was 56[ bosh
els. My neighbors, Judge W. S. Smith
and H. McCorkle, by invitation, kindly
attainted the measuring and sacking.
This lot is a stiff red clay land ; six
years ago I bought and enclosed it, at
which time it was tijpoklj sot in Bemu
ds grass. Have cqlfiyiiCtedqimd gathered
six crops of eottotMatlw out*.Thaing the
seventh erop manures
one to two acre—24
bales of ootton being tbe erop for the six
years, or an average of one bale per acre
per year. " '
I do not know bow long sinoe fhi* land
was cleared from .original forest. Tradi
tion has it that Among other buildings
on tbe lot stood an Inn, or Hotel, during
the revolutionary war. (Snch men as
Green and Marion may have sheltered
there.)
Now it anybody's patch can beat this
old anti-beltuoi lot, all things oonaider

Messrs. Editors, allow tqa to insist that
yon keep the spurs to McDuffie farmers

BEEVES.—Died, at the residence of
her brother, Mr. David Beeves, on Fri
day, May 26th, 1876, Misa Mittie Beeves,
in the 23d year of her age.
To record the death of this truly esti
mableyoung lady is a most painful task,
and one that we ®on Id most gladly have
been spared, bnt it becomes us to bow to
the fiat of Him “who doeth all things
well,” much as it grieves ns to part with
one whose gentle demeanor and amiable
disposition nad endeared her to all her
acquaintances. Beloved by all who
knew her, none was ever heard to speak
of her but in terms of the highest praise,
and her departure has left a void that
can not be easily filled. Her illness was
long and painful—her sufferings intense,
but she bore it all with the meekness aud
patience that was characteristic of her
whole life. Obedient ass daughter,
amiable as a companion, attentive as a
student in a Sabbath school, of which
she was a most acceptable and estimable
member, she might indeed be cited as a
model.
Her cheerful countenance and pleasant
voice will long lie missed, aud her ab
sence keenly felt by her Superintendent
and associates in the Sabbath school
where she was noted for the promptness
and regularity of her attendance.
She was not a member of any church,
but if correctness of deportment, purity
of life, and reverence for all things holy
and aacred can be taken as evidence, her
grief-stricken friends and relatives have
no reason to doubt her final acceptance
at the throne of everlasting grace. Oar
grief at losing her ia natural, but feeling
that our loss is her eternal gain, we are
ooustraiued to say, “Notour will. Heav
enly Pathos, but Thine bd done.”
To her afflicted relatives we offer our
heartfelt sympathy, add prav that God
may snnetify this great affliction to the
good of their souls, and that they may
again be united in the realms of eternal
bliss, where there shall be no more sor
row, and parting shall not be known.
