Mr. Editor :—Having learned Hint I lie Congressional Executive Clorntiiillcc have called (he Convention to noinlnute a can didatc for Congre** to till the unexplrod term of Hon. T. J. H|wer, at Forsyth, on Monday, October 7th. 1 hereby endorse said action and suggest to the counties in said District to act accordingly. I make this announcement os I had suggested Macon, Tuesday, October Bth. T. llahdbman, Jn, Clun'ii Ex. Com. Democratic palters in District please copy, , . ... ■ ■ Kvkut patriot should give one day, at least, to his country, in twelve luonths. To morrow you may secure one vote for law, order, peace, fraternity, and econom ical government. It is worth your effort. Jr you know of u weak brother, living some distance from the polls, make it your business, early in the day, to accompany him to tiro voting place, and secure his vote. Every votadclls. We cannot af ford to lose one— . . Col. Haiidkman delivered a stirring speech lost night. The hall was crowded, and the enthusiasm was real ami merited. What a miserable hole to speak in t It is enough to freeze the soul of nn orator to lie csmpellod to speak In such a place Theodore Tilton ia worried because nearly nil tlio orthodox clergy go for Grant Now, our tibcrnl friend need not vex his heterodox soul about that. Or thodoxy lias backslidden, that's all, and heterodoxy has lrccome sound orthodoxy in political matters. Theodore ia ortho dox for once. - Contrary to general Impression and pre vious history on the same lino, Mr Greeley M-cnis to have greatly aided the liberal i utixe in Ills extended tour. His speeches are model*. Every word Is clear cut, ap propriate aud sensible. There is no cx cllod appeal to public prejudice, hut plain talk to plain people. For onco a candi date for the Presidency, can bo trusted to speak Tor himself during a heated cam paign. Everywhere enthusiasm is on llie Increaao. You need not fear to go to the polls to morrow for llie purpose of voting There will lie no intimlilution tolerated, mid no muu who lias a right to vote will be lulerler ed with. Walk right up,calmly,ami quietly aud vote, theu retire, that others may do o also. Disturbances at polls begin by jostling, pulling, clamoring, uud arguing. Tills should uud w ill not lie tolerated A man makes up ills mind how to vote bo fore lie nutria. When any person begin* to Joatle aud flare about, he is a disturber and should he arrested. Wk are confident of our ability to carry the day tomorrow in a fair election, if every Democrat and Liberal will do Iris July—tliero can be no question about the mat ter. Duty! What la that. Ist vote your self. 2nd (jet a* many other* to vote witii you a* possible lie sure you vote the right ticket Tiro Walker ticket means untold calam ity, trouble, and tire roasserllon of radical rule In Georgia. The Smith ticket means peace, equal right*, economy, prosperity —and a contin uance ol those blessings which for a year have been falling upon us. ——• ♦ Tint Gothamite* intend to give Mr. Greeley a rousing reception on bis return from the canvass ol the middle and Wee tern States. This is well. Mr. Greeley lias contributed Immensely to the growth and enthusiasm of the Liberal cause. Croaker* croak, and false prophet* utter their wonderful prognostic*! ions .etc.etc., et. at., but Mr. Greeley, has proved him •elf more than equal to the great demand. He prove* himself a w ise, sagacious, and recollected statesman, who. cau open his mouth without put ling bis foot in it. Let him receive a glorious welcome back to the metropolis. NI.OWI-Y BIT t liKTAm.I. The Episcopal Church Convention is an occasion of moment iu N'cw \ ork. Many of the meet influential and wealthy not to say fashionable families of Gotham serve God after uo maimer laid down in the prayer-books and rubrics of the Epis copal Church. In the Episcopal address, by Bishop Hotter, before the recent Convention, smong other matters, bis lordship brought forward the subject of a Cathedral. He wanted a Cathedral, that is, if be could have * real one w ith *ll the uuity, power, pomp, amaze, authority and antiquity which so wonderful a Christian institution Is supposed to establish or represent His lordship was both tender and stern on this great subject, and poured forth his apo thelic spirit iu a niauner calculated to both win and repel, as is his method J However, a committee was appointed on Cathedral—with large powers (both Com mittee and Cathedral) iu the premise*. And so we are getting ready for the future reception and entertainment of the Holy Father himself when the veil between us and home is severed. oicisrit, umTixJinv, oitii:it: J. C. Swayzc, the editor of the Had leal Luton, came out yesterday evening with an *• extra," in which be says very bitter, and vve must believe, unjust things of Col Qmoii. This sort of political wat fare is ! dishonoring to the man who practices it. and compels us to think ill of those for whom we might he disp'med to have re- I spect. Now, we do not despise an honest Repub lican any more tbau wo believe in a fulso Democrat. A man can, in tbla country, think as lie pleases, and air his thoughts, too, if lie do so in the language of u gentle man, Rut liberty’ is traduced ami lowered and grossly abused when one is found to use it for slanderous purposes I Then it be comes the handmaid of villainy, and ia no longer the good and holy llilog we should esteem it. We are opposed to incendiary journal ism whether it he Republican or Demo cratic. No man serves liis country by such writing. He represents nobody— only ids own unworthy heart, lie assists no good cause ; defends no injured prin ciple ; farthers no noble mission, and rep resents no worthy thought, measure, or standard. 11c spits out his evil venom and (ire ! He is a human serpent hissing at lire innocent or the maligned! In the form of a man, yet Is he Ishmacllte, whose hand is aguinst every man’s, and who has no country. We have not all this to say of Mr Swayzu. We know him not! From his own “extra" we glean that he lius udlaughter, and that he has known domestic trial and sorrow. A man who has a daughter also has a heart, and there is a way to it I One who lias teen trouble lias a claim upon our thought and siluncc. Wo confess that claim in this case, and because of it, re mind Mr. Hwuyzo that to write a sheet full of bitterness, hate, malignity, and per sonal abuse, is a tiling that ran he forgiven, hut never mndc white ! We are ashamed for journalism I We arc knowing to a hotter way, and uro striving to set the example. We do not exonerate our cotemporary the Tele graph aud Messenger. We have called that journal to order, for certain unneces sary, wild, incendiary sayings , and we are plciuu i to note a decided improve ment. Let us have a decent exchange of thought. Let the mouth or pen that vitu perates, lie known as foul, aud let public conscience demund truth, honor, fair-deal ing. ami intelligence in those who assume to guhls public thought, opinion, and morals i:\TIttOIHHAAKI COV TIIMPT.

The tax collector is the busiest man in ton n. and will continue to be so until ills office closes this evening. There seems to boa mistake about the tax business. Any man who has paid liis properly tax for 1872, is entitled to vote, therefore. Those cannot vote who have {Y, no tar. The poll tax, we understand, is always added in the ordinary tax and is paid in n lump. This understanding will relieve many— aud probably, none more than the hard pressed collector, if you have paid no tar, the payment of poll tax alone will entitle you to vote gov. i u rn Has taken a buhl stand in favor of the Lib eral movement and its candidates.

His paper is scholarly, caustic, and presents the whole subject in a deeply interesting light. Dr. Aiken is evidently a man of science, and if bis narrative be accepted his critics will have to attack him on new issues We clip a paragraph from his able letter that our readers may eujoy llie Doctor's method of parrying If for the part I was required to take in this matter I have really been as near utter destruction as the editor of a misnamed religious paper in New York assures his readers was the case, I have reason to be thankful for my escape. If that wise Doctor who could have annihilated me before he left the country, hut thought he would'ut, had not changed his mind I never could have had this opportunity to suggest to the aforesaid editor that lie who propagates a falsehood is equally culpable with him who origiuates it, aud that even a mind overflowing witii legal lore may he bencfltted by a careful study of the Decalogue. A little learning is never so dangerous as when the unhappy possessor is emboldened to decide ex cathedra on questions with which he is so little ac quainted tiiat lie is ignorant even of his own ignorance. His respects to Drs. Reese and Genth are no less direct and satisfactory, and will change the attitude somewhat of those distinguished gcntlemeu. Much was said during the late trial of Dr. Aiken’s mistake (or worse.) hut, if we are a judge, he lias completely turned the tables on his critics, and stands to-day the ablest scientist of the three. On tlio vexed question he says: Among the opinions antagonistic to my conclusions in the Schasppe case were those advanced by Prof, lteese and Dr. Gcuth, who also held opinions opposed to iny conclusions in the Wharton case. Aud if a demonstrable error in the one may he cited as showing a probable error in the other the opinions of those gentle men may he fairly considered somewhat unreliable. In the Wharton trial the lawyers for tlio defence produced before the jury a wonderful discovery. This discovery, made by Prof. McCullough, was verified aud endorsed by Prof. Reese and Dr. Genth, and according to Prof. Reese seemed likely to revolutionize the Bcicnce of toxicology. They claimed that a com bination of remedies, chloral and gelsemi num, containing not a particle of antimo ny, when treated exactly as a suspected wixturo in which antimony was present, idol 1 give results so exactly similar that a skinful chemist might he deceived aud eveu misled iuto the conclusion that anti mony wus present when not a particle was there. But unfotunately for the and for liis friends who had repeated and veri fied his experiments, the claim when in vestigated proved to be a myth, the won deiful discovery vanished, and the revo lution in science has been postponed un til further notice The combination of remedies when treated in the same way as an antimonial solution uillnot gice simi lar results. The reagent that produce an orange red precipitate from the one will not give any thing of the kind from the other. By a very different treatment chlo ral and gelseuiinum will give a white pre cipitate that appeals orange red only while suspended in a deep colored liquid. The moment the precipitate is separated from the liquid, it is white. Aud the two pre cipitates also differ diametrically in chem ical character. In short, the solution of chloral and gelsemimmi, instead of resem bling an antimonial solution chemically, is in reality so different that tlicae is no possibility of mistaking one for the other. The one must he acid to yield a precip itate, the other must be alkaline.- The precipitate from one is orange red, from the other it is white. The product from one precipitate is perfectly soluble in tar taric acid, the same product from the oth er is insoluble in tlio same acid. When these facts were made known to the Attor ney General, he spoke very irrevalently of the wonderful discovery, and denounc ed it as either an “atrocious fraud on the administration of justice er else the result of the grossest ignorance.” I cannot sup pose that Prof. McCullough, who made the discovery, or Prof. Kccsc or Dr. Genth, who repeated and verified the experi ments, had any doubt on the subject at the lime, or entertained the least idea of fraud. Neither is it necessary to assume gross ignorance, mere want of proper care may account for very serious mistakes. Bat then such carelessness once demon strated iu one important case destroys all confidence in the opinions of such careless observers in other cases. Following the Voice.
