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. Tiios.
