ballot. The poor deluded beings clayed,
aud we see ihe result.
For weeks tlio Georgia papers have lie

Georgia fires the first October gun. and

where between .'ill,1)00 and 50,000. Geor
gia used to lie a Radical State ; at least it
was claimed to he such, and it certainly
w as, for a time, under Radical rule —Bul-
lock being Governor, and a body of men

ing called the Legislature. It has been
Democratic, however, ever since it was
restored to the hands of its people. It was
tiigued in the recent convass by the Dem
ocrats tlpit if Walker, (Radical), should he
oho-cn Governor, the people would be
inirdcued with the six millions of fraudu
lent bonds, held by Henry Clews of New
York, and his friends. As Gov. Smith is
re elected, and a strong Democratic and
Liberal Legi-lature with him, the people
are saved from this danger. Georgia w ill

LESSON FOB ALABAMA.
The overwhelming majority given in
Georgia for the Democratic and Liberal
ticket, is truly astonishing. Counties
that at previous elections gave heavy ma
jorities for the Radicals, have been carried
as largely the other way. i\ ith very
few exceptions the election was quiet und
peaceable, and these exceptions were
plainly the result of a premeditated de
sign, on the part of Ike negroes and their
unprincipled white aiders, and abetters
This was lore-seen long before the election
and fully ventilated by the press. But
what does this glorious result in Georgia
teach us! 1 Simply, that with proper or
ganization and !> full determination on the
pail of our white people a similar result
may he obtained in Alabama.
THE STATE PRESS
On the Election.
Front the Atlanta Sun.)
(After congratulating the Democratic
party on the glorious result of the elec
tion, Mr. Stephens takes a look into the
future-, and speaks boldly, yet uncertainly,
to his fi iemls )
WHAT KKXT.
Wbat then shall our fiicuds, (the
•’Straight-outs" in Georgia, we mean) do
iu the premises J Their Executive Com
mittee. we believe, have the entire subject
trader their control
All that we have to say in this outlook,
is barely to give our individual opinion.
Upon the Committee rests the responsibil
ity of action.
It was our expectation that an electoral
ticket composed of men for whom every
Democrat in Georgia could vote without
any sa, riflee of principle, would he an
nounced by them us soon as the State elec
tions w ere over
Whether the name of O'Conor. or
Adams, or any other should be presented
for the others of 1 “resident and Vice Pres
ident 'vs for them to determine.
That ticket has not yet been announced.
What course the Committee intend to
take in refereace to it, or the whole sub
jeet, we know not . but. in conclusion, we
give it as our individual opinion, that, if
■in electoral ticket is put torik by them,
for this Slate, no better man than Mr.
O'Conor could be presented for I’resi
dent ; and as Mr. Adams has declared for
Hen. Grant, we suggest that Hon. John J.
Davis, of Western Virginia, lie substituted
in Ids place. This suggestion we submit
liately for tlieir cousideialion.
The whole matter is with them. If
they see lit to let the presidential election
in Georgia go by default, so far as the
• Straights'' are concerned, be it so. 11.
ou the contrary, they think proper to
hoist the banner of Jeffersouian Democ
racy ; then to that standard we shall not
only go individually, if able to march to
the polls . but shall, to the extent of our
ability, rally ail true Democrats through
out the Idate to do likewise.
From Uic Comnibus Sun.]
THE REASON.
lu the clectiou just closed, everything
conspired to produce a triumph of right
over wrong, of intelligence over ignoruuce,
and pm ity over official State corruption.
The followers of Bullock iu his duys of
power and imperial profligacy, deserted
him iu his disgrace aud exile, 110 had
his friends when patronage, wealth and
position was at his command , when his
favors departed und llie brand of it thief
was fixed openly on his forehead, none
then were so poor ns to do him reverence.
The very men who futtened by pandering
to his rascalities .in prosperity were the
first to kick him when down and to cast
his name out of their society as infamous.
Thu pure Democrat who always scorned
to ask or receive favor at his hands ; the
apostate Radical who lived day by day on
the garbage of his royal kitchen ; the
Hlraiglitout who never will vole for Gree
ley, and the Liberal Republican who will
never vote for Grant, ull united under
flic haulier of Democracy, so-called, and
gained a glorious victory in behalf of re
form and official purification. The Radi
eals per ee went to pieces from their own
corruption.
From the Augu-ta Constitutionalist.)
Good Counski,.
The vote on Wednesday last demonstrates
that the reign of the carpet-bagger is over
and that the colored voters at last realize
that to have been an alien, an unfriendly,
a malign influence. T hey show a grow
ling confidence in the willingness of the
native white citizen to protect their lights
and legislate impartially for Ihe cotnmou
benefit regardless of color. Let not their
just expectations he disappointed. Let
our legislative halls und our courts of jus
tice continue to show to them and to all
the world that Georgia adheres to her
motto —Justice, Wisdom, Moderation.
From tlio Bhv. Republican.)
Sneaks.
We have it, on indubitable authority,
that on the morning of Wednesday front
sixty to one hundred special. United States
Deputy Marshals were secretly sworn in
and furnished w ith blauk warrants to ar
rest, any of our citizens they might regard
as interfering witli the freedom of elections
under the amendments, and sent to the
polling place. This whole thing was done
secretly—these men were furnished with
no badges, nor any external evidence of
being United States officers ; and their at
tempting to arrest citizens would iuevita
lily have led to resistence on the part of
those thus interfered with by irresponsible
persons, and possibly to a general riot.
The sneaking way in which the thing was
done inspires the suspicion that these men
were sent in the double capacity of spies,
iu the hope of their picking up some
crumbs of comfort for their employers, to
give a pretext for interfering before or af
ter with the popular verdict—and as in
stigators of riot, had it paid to make one,
which, fortunately for the peace of our
city, it did uot.
From the Albany News.)
THE FATAL XVOUD.
Everywhere radicalism is routed, dis
persed, and doomed. Such a defeat never
yet befell a pretentious party—a victor
was never more surprised at the nothing
ness of an enemy or Ihe extent of a tri
umph.
Was it management? No: for onr
people waked up only ou the morning of
the election. Was it money? No; for
our people were too poor to pay cash for
printing tickets Was it corruption in
counting the vote? No; for everywhere
men of the highest integrity and unpureli
usable honor were in charge of the ballot
boxes. Was it apathy ou the part of the
Radical leaders? No, for never before
did they put forth such unbending exer
tion, or employ more unrighteous means
to accomplish their end,
What then is the secret of this sweep
ing. tli is universal, this besom of destruc
tion ot radicalism in Georgia? Let the
politician exhaust hia catalogue of tricks,
the statesman his arena of schemes and
policy, tlio moralist his rules of ethics, the
patriot his theories of self-government
and civil liberty, aud the fool his crude
notions of right and wrong, aud at last all
must arrive at the same conclusion —
OItANTISM,
That's the fatal word ; that's the banc and
that the death secret. The infamous, in
human, infernal raw-breaking, liberty
killing soul-devouring spirit that Ittrkes
and lives In the one single word
OItANTISM.
From the Atlanta Herald.J
DEAD AS a DOOII NAIL.
Governor Smith's majority gets larger
and larger. We should not he surprised
if it touched sixty thousand, and it may
even exceed that. It proves that the
Radical party in Georgia is as dead us a
door nail, and is also a flattering proof of
Governor Smith s personal popularity, for
the campaign, as conducted by the Demo
cratic leaders was wretchedly poor.
From the Chronicle and Sentinel.)
THE RESULT.
Our victory has been greater than the
most sanguine could have expected. The
honest masses have, as with one impulse,
arisen in their power, and have dealt a
blow to Radicalism from which it will
never he able to recover. The partial re
turns so far received indicate that Smith's
majority will reach nearly if uot quite
fifty thousand, and that both branches of
the Legislature will be nearly unanimously
Democratic.
It is with pleasure wc record the fact
that in this grand and successful move
ment against Radicalism, the Eighth Con
gressional District has kept steadily in the
front rank, and that although overwhelmed
with a negro majority of more than eight
thousand voters. Smith lias received not
less than six thousand majority.

ON THE UEIOtITS.
The result of the election last Tuesday
is glorious, it is like lifting one from the
•• Slough of Despond " up to tlic fairest
height of the delectable mountains. In
consequence of the indifference manifested
by the people we had prepared our minds
for a humiliating defeat, but thanks to the
native patriotism of the true sons of Geor

The Democracy of Georgia is agaiu trium
phant and Radicalism is forever dead in
its fair domain.
From the Cuthbert Appeal ]
THE GREETING
Which Georgia tends to Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana, is most cheering. The
majority indicated by the returns, so far
as heard, will show a perfect defeat and
route of Radicalism in this State. If those
States respond to it by their votes next
Tuesday, it will assure lhc election of
Greeley and Brown by the largest majority
ever known in the history of the country.
In that case Georgia will give not
than 40,000 majority.
