XTB EFFECTS.
SPECULATIONS AND REJOICINGS.
THRKK CIIBBRB FOR OKOKOIA.
The uews from Georgia is more glo
rious and grand than our highest
hopes had dared to promise. Wo knew
we should carry the State and by a hand
some majority, but fifty thousand ! and
perhaps more, far surpasses our most
sanguine expectations. Georgia, like
Virginia, is safe forever from Radical
rule, and she can now enter with us
upon that promised career of prosperity
and greatness which is stiii donied to
ous less fortunate sisters, who yet groan
under the yoke of foreign oppression.
The effects of this victory have al
ready been felt all through the South,
awakening new interest in the campaign
and arousing the people to enthusiasm,
and it will also exert a happy influence
in the North, where good news was
much needed at this time. It will raise
tic drooping spirits of our friends and
stir them up to renewed efforts. They
will see that they have not been desert
ed by the South, and will take new
heart. Even the anticipated victory in
Pennsylvania next Tuesday itself will
scarcely have a more potent effect in
restoring confidence and inspiring hope.
The vote of Georgia foreshadows the re
sult, in the entire South, and we may
safely piomiss every State save that
poor, down-trodden Niobe, South Caro
lina, to Greeley and Brown. Let every
heart rejoice! We are on the eve of
great results. Victory is within our
grasp, and we will secure it if we are
but confident, bold and resolute. — Rich
mond Enquirer.
grant’s THIEVES BURIED UNDER 50,000
MAJORITY.
Last year Georgia gave 26,863 Dem
ocratic majority. Yesterday, according
to the latest dispatches, she rolled up
almost 50,000 Liberal majority, a clear
gain of nearly 25,000. The Georgians
have suffered from the effects of Grant’s
protection of the carpet-bag thieves,
who have emptied her Treasury, robbed
her of her railroads, and fastened upon
her millions of debt. She spurns Grant
worse than she spurned his thieving car
pet-baggers.
Brothers, the day lias broken. The
Sun of Reform is rising. The doom of
the usurper is written or. the wall. Up
and be doing 1
.The South nobly responds to the new
Declaration of Independence. Let
Ohio, Indiana,and Pennsylvania re-echo
the shout of triumph from Georgia on
Tuesday next, and the victory is ours!—
New York Sun.
A RINGING REBUKE OF GRANT.
The reported majority —which wo
can well afford to see reduced, since it
is unexpected and unprecedented—is
Georgia’s protest against the politics
which have despoiled the State, and
against corruption and usurpation in
high places. It is a clear and ringing
rebuke of the National Administration
that sustained and encouraged the Bul
locks and their Wall Street allies re
echoed next week in the three great
central States of the Union. Even the
respectability of the ticket which was
put up by the Great Republican has
not been able to stay the rising tide.
What then shall we look for when the
honest men of Pennsylvania come to
pass judgment on Hartranft and Cam
eron; —what when Indiana makes choice
between Hendricks and Morton— N. Y.
Tribune.
IIOW THE NATIONAL COMMITTEES IN NEW
■ YORK TOOK THE NEWS.
There were many callers, yesterday,
at the headquarters of the National De
mocratic Executive Committee. The
election in Georgia, with the very large
majority for the Liberal candidates,
was the ooeasion of much rejoicing. It
was asserted that it was only the begin
ning of the movement which is to cul
minate in the election of Greeley and
Brown. A meeting will be held on
Saturday evening in Tammany Hall,
and congratulatory speeches will bo
made by promment Liberal Republican
and Democratic lenders.
The rejoicing nt the headquarters of
the Liberal Republican Executive
Committee was fully equal to that at
the Democratic Headquarters. Several
representatives from Southern States
called during the day, and declared
that as the effect of the victory in
Georgia, every Southern State, except
South Carolina, would ho carried for
the Liberal candidates. Colonel Ethan
Allen will have a snluto of one hundred
guns fired to-night in honor of the vic
tory.
At the headquarters of the Adminis
tration, Republican uneasiness was
manifested, although an effort was made
to laugh off the result of the election. —
New York Tribune.
THE GREAT POLITICAL WEATHERCOCK SAYS
IT WILL INSPIRE THE LIBERALS.
Dropping the fanciful illustration and
returning to whence wo started —the
Georgia election- it is evident that the
effect of Wed nesday’s work will solidify
the Greeley party throughout tlie entire
South. It. will induco the faint-hearted
or the indifferent to come into the cam
paign with a greater certainty that their
labors will not be thrown away. Tt will
animate the spirits of the contestants
on the side in the three great Middle
States and vivify once more the ener
gies of those who will have to wait un
til the first Tuesday in November
taking part in the war on the adminis
tration. It is fortunate in every way
that this should be the state of public
feeling as the sun rises which is to
witness the decision of Tuesday next.
Were it otherwise the Liberals would
have gone in heavily weighted and de
pressed, and the result would scarcely
have been reached on its actual merits.
In such a close State as Indiana, for
instance, the pressure of outside opinion
might so dishearten the element which,
by its indecision, really holds the State
in its hands that Hendricks might have
been defeated on the merits of the Maine
election. As it is, the equilibrium is
restored, and what should be dear to
all lovers of fair play, namely, a fair
fight, will take place. The increased
majority in Georgia will, as the latest
coup in the campaign, doubtless tend
to turn the balame of enthusiasm in
favor of the Liberals who, in the face of
their powerful and resolute opponents
will need all they can muster. So the
fight goes ou.— JS r . Y. Herald,
THE BATTLE DECIDED.
The demonstration which Georgia
has given of the sincerity and the una
nimity with which her people desire
peace, brotherhood, and liberal relations
between the different sections of the
country will have an immediate and a
most inspiriting effect upou the jiation
al canvass everywhere. It is the more
significant that it is the first response
yet given to the admirable and manly
appeals of Mr. Greeley during bis re
cent journey through Pennsylvania and
a portion of the West. In the tace of
this superb uprising of the people of
the strongest of the Southern Statos it
is childish to prate of Southern indiffer
ence to or dissatisfaction with the Lib
eral platform and tfie Liberal candi
dates.
What has been done in Georgia will
decide the movement of the entire
South. From this day forth the Radi
cals may as well understand that to
Southern State is to be counted upon
by them in the struggle for the Presi
dency, save, perchance, South Carolina
and Mississippi.
But if we concede thus much to the
force of tyranny and corruption in
South Carolina and Mississippi, there
yet remain as assured of the Liberal
and Democratic tickets by the splendid
result of Tuesday’s voting in Georgia
the following States with their electoral
votes:
Alabama 10 Virginia ...11
Arkansas 0 'Vest Virginia ... . 6
Florida 4 North Carolina... 11
Georgia 11 Tennessee 11
Kentucky 12 i Texas 8
Louisiana 8 | Maryland 8
Total 106
If to these we add the votes which
may be regarded as practically certain
to bo cast for Greeley and Browd of
the following States :
New York 86 1 Delaware 3
Missouri.. 15 | New Jersey 0
making in the sum sixty-two votes—
we shall have a total of 167 votes which
from this day forth must be conceded
by all candid and competent political
calculators as secured, to the support of
the cause of reform. To a Presidential
choice there arc now required 184
votes, leaving but 17 votes as necessary
j to he won by the Liberals and the
j Democrats. A Democratic viotory in
Pennsylvania will give us these 17
votes and lil to spu-e. A Democratic
victory i,n Pennsylvania and Ohio, in
Ohio and Indiana, or in Pennsylvania
an i Indiana would simply put General
Grant out of the canvass for all political
purposes. Well theu we repeat, may
the party of fraud and of hatred trem
ble at the thunder-tones in which Geor
gia has jußt announced the solid advance
of the great column of the regenerated
Southern States to the decisive field
of action. Well may the Democrats
and the Liberals of the Middle. States
and of the West catch new courage and
fresh inspiration from the exhilarating
sound. The victory of Wednesday in
Georgia will not only make victory more
easy next week in Pennsylvania and in
the great West; it assurrics in advance
the most glorious fruits for which we
have hoped and labored in preparing
there the victory of our principles and
of our policy.— New York Herald.
APPEAL FKOIW THE STATE
DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE.
Push on the Column.
To the Democratic Party in Georg ia :
The ct is over. The battle has
beor. jgt) aud we have achieved a
brilliant, a uecisive victory. All hon
or to those who have nobly dared and
done hut they must not rest on their
arms, nor lean on their swords, until the
enemy now defeated, is routed, and the
forces destroyed. Linger not among
the spoils on the battle-field to recount
your struggles or chant your paens of
victory—but close up your ranks, push
on tho column, and prevent him from
rallying to save his broken fortunes.
Your victory will not be complete if by
indifference or over-confidence j’ou suf
fer him again to make a decisive stand.
Cease not your efforts—weary not in
your duties—stop not your pursuit un
til his flying hosts beg for quarter and
give up the conflict. The struggle
through which you have passed has been
for Georgia alone; you must now unite
your forces with the grand army of Re
form and Conciliation that are marching
toward the nation’s capital, determined
not to sheathe the sword or furl the
banner until the one is wreathed with
garlauas of victory, and the.other floats
in triumph over the White House in
Washington.
Georgia speaks no uncertain sounds
hut clear ringing notes. She sounds
words cheer and greetiug to her sis
ter States. Redeemed herself, her chains
broken, her spirits cheered and reassur
ed she will join Cincinnati and Balti
more in breaking the bonds from limbs
now fettered; in restoring liberty to
the people, self-government to the States
and harmony and good will to the Union.
The object is commendable, the purpose
patriotic, the field inviting. Falter not
in your duty ; hut go on battling for
for the right until constitutional govern-*
ment is restored, aud the people North
and South, East and West, shall be
united in feeling, united in “ the bonds
of a common” Union. For this the bat
tle you have so nobly fought, and so
gloriously von was waged, and for this
I yon must still fight until in November
next you an proclaim from the citadel
of civil liberty that,
“Freedom’s battle one* begun,
Bequeathed from bleeding sire to son,
Though baffled oft, is ever won !"
Preserve, then, your organization in
tact. Have some fallen on the field,
or deserted by the wayside ! Fill up
the ranks and unite the broken column
and with freemen's will and freemen’s
daring, inarch on to conquest and vic
tory. To the Liberal Republicans who
have aided us so gallantly in the strug
gle, wc acknowledge with gratitude
their valuable services and with their aid
in the coming conflict, we will overthrow
the party in power, whose corruptions
they have denounced, and whose usur
pations they have so fearlessly exposec'.
To the Executive Committeemen in
the Districts, I would urge increased
activity. See to it that your Congres
sional Districts arc'organized and can
vassed, for our Congressmen can be,
and must be triumphantly elected.
To the sub-electors whose services
our committee so gratefully recognized
I can only say, persevere in your good
work, perfect your organizations, rally
your county forces, and let each and all
of us determine to 6iay net our bands
until we have reclaimed the sacred tem
ple and instituted anew the pure wor
ship of the builders around the holy al
tars of constitutional liberty. On, then,
good men, true men, to duty, and in No
vember next we will plant our banners
upon the walls of the nation’s capital,
and sing again our templo songs in re
claimed Jerusalem.
