Grant leaders arc doing what they can
lo destroy Horace Greeley's record of de
votion lo tho colored race, before, during,
and since tho war.
The purpose I" hold the colored race
for Graut, and to have them do an ever
lasting Injustice to one, to whom, more
than any other man, they arc indebted for
their emancipation.
It was Horace Greeley who first dc
dared the necessity of litrerating the slaves.
It was lloraeo Greeley who first declared
that the war would end with the emanci
pation of the slave. It was Horace Gree
ley who first urged relations of amity and
friendship between the negroes und their
lam owners, as a matter of principle and
polity. It was Horace Greeley * letter on
iho importance of emancipation that drew
forth President Lincoln* proclamation,
mid the subjoined letter.
Now, if the white people of Ilia South
can unite with this same, unchanged Hor
ace Greeley, and, under his leadership,
toil urn! sacrifice for a good government,
the establishment of equal light*, and the
promotion of industry and pence , what
shall bo thought of tho colored man who
arrays himself on the other side, und voles
against the man, who not only secured
his freedom, hut reconciles his white fel
lowclllzcns to the fact and its consequen
ces T *
Let there thought* go out to our colored
citizens. Let them ponder und discuss
them. Let them argue against them, If
they can. But as they value freedom and
peace, let them bcwaie how they turn
against the hand of God and Justice

lengtli and ably the issues of the present
campaign, and shows that real inte
rests of every Georgian is with the triumph
of the Democratic or Greeley and Brown
candidates. His words ate wholesome and
sound
As the Democrats and Liberal Republi
can* stand side by side upon the same
platform, und support the same candidate
for the Presidency, and their interests arc
identical, it seems to follow that they must
in future, act together And as the Dem
ocratic party of the Uaion has thought
proper to accept the LiberqJ Republican
platform with its candidates, it seem* to mo
ti e Liberal Republicans should not by re
fusing to support Democratic candidat i
for State offices, throw obstacles in the
way of cordial co-opcrutioii und union.
You inquire specially what will be our
action in the Gubernatorial election. I re

Gov Smith ns the Greeley and Brown can
didate. It seems to me this is the only enn
sistance course I can pursue. And iu Miis

should remark, that the Grant convention,
in the nomination of the Hint Dawson A
Walker, selected the very lie-t limn of
their parly in the State. lam l.i* personal
friend, and I believe he is mine.
Our acquaintance Im* been long and in

Capable man. who would til I tho position
ably and wi 11, if elected. it he were the
Llierul candidate, it would alford me
great pleasure to support him. While I
drum it an act of Justice to say thi* in ref
erence to Judge Walker 1 claim equal in
tegrlly, ability and capacity for Governor
Smith. As he is Iho nominee of the party
woo supports Greeley and Brown, and in
Ids letter of acceptance pledges himself
Individually to their support; while Judge
Walker is the nominee of the Grunt und
Wilson party, and is pledged to their sup
port; it seems to me to he the natural
course, for all who desire tho election of
Greeley and Brown, to east their suffrage
for Governor Hmitli. His ele;‘ion will be
hailed by tbc Democrats and Liberal Re
publicans of the Union as a Greeley and
Brown triumph in Georgia; while the

Tim Dublonega Signal newspaper, utter
announcing that it was published on the
12th day of September, 1872, and that
“ Jury tickets would bo taken at pur for
subscriptions, advertisements aud job
work, ut this office,” has a man by (lie
namo of llesser, who agrees that if liis
constituents will elect him to tho Senate.
I will pledge myself to appropriate all
my salary, except two dollars a day, to be
divided between the three counties—for
the benefit of the people as they may sec
lit.” According to the salary which Bes
ser will receive if divided per capita be
tween the people of llie “three counties"
each ouo would get about lialf-a cent back.
If they don't vote for him after that, they
will allow themselves too stupid to enjoy
the rights of self-government.
Eufaula is not in Georgia hut Shrop

Tho Lumpkin Independent Local culled
a man over there a fool, and his name was
Harris. After which Harris appeared in

The Atlanta Herald, In its 24th number,
announces tho melancholy fact that the
Democratic party of the United States,
which is now nearly one hundred summers
old, has no more sense than it ought to
have. And that fractional part of it which
belongs to tlio young State of Georgia,
which met iu Atlanta the other day in mass
meeting “numbered no more than 500,"and
tho meeting • was a perfect fizzle.” The
Herald settles effectually tho duties and
tho results of this campaign, as follows :
“Mr, Greeley must withdraw from his
candidacy and O’Conor, or some equally
popular man, he suppoited by the De
mocracy In his place, or the rc-slectiou of
Grant is Inevitable. It may, as a general
rule, be an unwise act to swap horses
while crossing a stream, .but when your
horse cannot breast the cflrrent swapping
is most judicious aud is necessary for self
preservation." This should at once be
telegraphed to Horace Greeley, and should
he still refuse to come down, let tho dire
consequence rest upon his head, llut
Greeley once said something about -block
heads.'’ The proceediugs of the meeting
occupy about five columns in the papers
of the Gate City Owing to sickness iu
tho family and a press of job work"—we
arc compelled to defer details until next

Hhimudzu Haboro, wlio is now in re

following letter to the Mikado. Last year
Iwukurn was sent to tihimadzu to en
deavor to induce him to leave his retire
ment and lake an important position under

that he had no faith in the wisdom of the
government as then conducted. His
opinion does not seem to have ultered
materially since then: —
THE AVGUST STUDIES OK TIIE MOST IL
LUSTRIOUS.
The establishment of national principles
of action and tho execution of the laws
The adoption of a system of dress and
strict regulation of the outward man.
The reform of learning.
'I ke careful selection of human talent.
The careful conduct of foreign relations
and the establishment of a clear distiiic
lion between the right of Japanese and
foreigners.
The cultivation of a military spirit and
tlio reform of the army laws.
The establishment of a clear distinc
tion between the rights of noble ami mean.
The banishment of greed, the prizing
of virtue, the rejection of deceitful arts
and the reverencing of truthfulness.
The strict prohibition of debauchery,
and the establishment of a strongly
marked line between the sexes
The right of all to address the Sov

to the capital four years ago (1869), but,
finding no convenient opportunity for ex
pressing them, and not being favored
cither witli Your Majesty’s gracious inter
rogation, lie was obliged to be silent. And
now lie has, in Y’our Majesty’s tour, been
fortunate enough to worship the heavenly
countenance, and lie can no longer refrain
from giving vent to liis humble sentiments.
In this critical moment lie can no longer
sit by nud look on with indilfcrencc at

vinced that Your Majesty cannot adopt
liis retrograde and unenlightened views,
still lie feels that a convenient occasion
will perhaps never offer itself again, and
he ventures to make this atirupt represen
tation, Ho most humbly apologizes for
his audacity, but tlio fact is that by your
Majesty's present system 1 of government
the fortunes of this country are daily de
clining, tlio imperial lino, which should
last forever and ever, is in danger of fall
into the vice called republicanism, and he
can see as clearly as in a mirror that Japan
will eventually become a dependency of
the Western barbarians, lie can only
sigli and weep.
