among us. ai d have endeavored to get you all
together into a black man's party. Without say
ing v hethcr their motives are good or bad, we
wish to say to you that if you aliow your elvrs to
he f rmed into a black man's party, you will
force us to form ourselves into a white man s
party. So right at the beginning you see our
house is divided against itself. Dou you not see
that if the black man is opposed to the white man
it follows from this that the white man is oppos
ed to the black man I So we shall be opposed
to each other. Now, no gool can come from
this It will bring nothing but barm to white
and black, but the greatest harm will betoyou.
These Northern adventurers who come out here
pretend that they are your friends. Perhaps
some of them are, but they deceive you when they
tell you that the Northern people are going to do
anything for you, except so far as they
cau use you as tools for their cwn put po
sts.
If Il.o Northern people love the blacks so much
why don't they do something for them at home ?
Don’t you know that only a few months-ago it
was proposed in Ohio lo let the negroes vote, and
that the white people ti.ere voted it down by forty
or fifty thous -nd majority ? Why did they do it?
It was because they hated tho black people.
There are comparatively few black people in Ohio
and it would make no difference whether they
voted or not. There is no reaSou w hy the b aek
people in Ohio should not vote, except that the
white people there hate them. So if those peo
ple want you to vote, it is not because they love
you ; it is only because they think they can make
something ont of yen. You had better have noth
ing to with these Yankee adventurers. The advice
they give you is had advice.
Now listen to another thing. Less than a week
ago it was proposed in the Senate of Pennsylvan
ia to let the black population vote. The members
of that Senate are nearly all Republicans—the
very men that are pretending to be your gi *at
friends Well, what did they do ?
Why. almost the whole of them refused to give
the black man any showing. That shows how
friendly they are. That shows the cloven foot
You had better let them alone. Do you know
why they want you to vote? It is not because
they love you You see that hy the way they
do at home It is not because they think you ate
qualified to vuu ; b<cause they know you are not
qua'ifitd, and you know youselves that you are,
not quaififd to vote, and ■ o not know what you
are voting tor. You liatdly know what voting
means Why, then, do they want you to vote?
It is only because they think they can control
your vote so as to keep themselves in office in
order that they may steal. Do you know that
they have been stealing your money already?
I hey stole two cents and a half on every pound
of cotton you made last year. Now remember
who did this stealing. It was not the Southern
people. It was not your old masters. It was the
Yankees These very men who come out here
and pretend to be such great friends with you,
although they never saw you before, will pat you
on the hack with one baud and steal from you
with the other.
Now, we don’t want you to go with these peo
pie. We want you to come with us. If you
come with us, then we who live together can all
be friendly together, and we chd make the Yan
kees stop their stealing. But if you go with them
you make trouble here at home among ourselves
You divide the house against itself. You get up
a biack man's party here in Georgia, and of
course we shall have a white man’s party. Now,
are ' ou willing lor this? Do you think you are
The Cash ! prepared to struggle with the white people? You
i must recollect that when it comes to the final
the Order or HO at- struggle, you will have not only the Southern
| people to contend with, but all the white people,
I North and South.
Now, we, your old masters, do not wish for
anything of this kind. We pray to God that it may
. never happen. We remember how faithful you
were when you were slaves. We remember how
you stood up to us during the war We remem
her you as members of our families. We were
boys together, we were raised together.—We
have not forgotten our old friendships. We do
not wish to break them.
We hope that no impertinent Yankees will
come in between us and break our friendship, and
set us against each other. These Yankees have
told you that we wish to pur you back into slave
ry again. They are miserable liars. We have no
desire to make slaves of you again. We never
made slaves of you iu the first place. It was the
Yankee who did it. They will not dare to deny
it. It was Yankee money that brought you from
Africi You came in Yankee ships, manned by
Yankee sailors. They forced you ou us as slaves
when we did not want you And now these same
Yankees come here with a lie in their mouth and
pretend to be your great friends. If the money
which they got for you, together with the interest
on it, were divided out among you, it would
give to every one of you a farm and a fortune
When they tell you we wish to put you back
into slavery, ask them who made slaves of you

No, we do not wish to make slaves of you
again. Now that you are free, we want you to
stay free. The time nevtr will come when we
shall wish to enslave you We would not do it
if we could, and we co Id not if we would.
We know that we are the stronger party, and
wo can afford to be magnanimous. We offer to
you the right hand of friendship. We do not think
you are qualified to vote. We know you are not
qualified, and so do you know it. Still at present
you have the right to do it. We acknowledge
that right. If you choose to vote with these few
A'ankees who are trying to make use of yon for
their own purposes yon can do so. But you may
depend upon it no good will come of it. It will
set you against your former masters, and it will
set them against you You had best keep out of
that quarrel. We wish to keep outjof it. We wish
to* live in peaee. We wish to be like one family.
Your interest is our ruterest, and our in interest is
your interest. Let us all stand together.
We invite yon to eo operate with us. It will
-be tor your benefit and ours too.—When voting
time conies you had best go to your old master
and get him to give you a ticket, that is a little
piece of paper, and be will toll you wbat to do
with it. A’ou had best get your old master to go
to the voting places with you For if one of these
• og A'ankees gets hold of your ticket, he will
take it away from you aud give you another in
place of it, which will not de so well. We should
be glad to tell you all about this, and the reasons
tor it, but cannot do so in this address. Your old
masters will no doubt take pleasure in explaining
it to you.
Now, it is getting time to stop. But we must
say once more, that it will be impossible for the
white people and black people iu Georgia to get
along together, if they are voting in a body a-
gainsteach other. We hope that you will remem
ber this, and that is all we have to say, except
this one word—that we are iu all sincerity and
truth your friends, and desire to remaiu so forever,
and if we have any trouble, it wili start with you
and the A'ankees, not with us.

LETTER FRO.VI GOVERNOR JENKINS.
April, S, 186H.
Editors Macon Telegraph—Gentlemen: I have
just seen, in the Columbus Sun, a short article ex
tracted from your paper, referring to a rumor that
a letter had been received from me advising that
the Conservative men of Georgia pursue in the
approaching elections the policy of non action, as
they did in the elections f r or»gainstaCou\en-
tiou and for members of the Convention. I desire
simply to say, that I have given no advice—ex
pressed no opinion, either verbally or iu writing,
in the premises.
Believing that in this crisis conc-.rt of aeuon—
unanimity, if that be attainable —among our
friends is greatly desirable; had I deemed it prop
er under the circumstances to volunteer any opin
ion on the subject, I would certainly have address
ed myself to thg Central Democratic Executive
Committee of Georgia, (through their Chairman,
Judge Cabaniss,) iu whom the Conservatives of
the State have wisely reposed a large discretion.
Very respectfully, your ob’t. serv’t ,
Charles J. Jenkins.
We publish the following Order from General
Meade, for the information of the public :
Headquarters Third Military District, j
Department of Georgia, Alabama and Florida, >
Atlanta, Ga., April 10, 1868. )
General Orders, No. 57.
1. The numerous resignations of Sheriffs of couir
ties in the State of Georgia that have recently been
tendered at these Headquarters, coming on the eve
of an important election, and when there is not suffi
cient time to make new appointments, makes it proper
and necessary fur *he commanding General to give
notice, that such resignations will not be accepted,
and that Sheriffs who have been so long holding their
offices at the sufferance of the commanding General,
will not be permitted to resign until after said election
is over; and they are hereby required to continue in
the faithiul performance of their official duties until
relieved from the same by orders from these Head
quarters. Any violation of this order will be pun
ished iu the munuer prescribed in General Orders No.
42 for the punishment of civil officers for disobedience
of Oiders.
2. Inasmuch as a numerous class of the electors
of this State are. from necessity at present, dependent
upon another edass for employment by which they
may earn their daily bread for themselves and their
families, and as numerous complaints have been made
Ht these Heudquarsters, that such laborers wili tie in
timidated from voting at the approaching election by
fear of the loss of employment, employers are hereby
forbidden any attempts to control the action or will of
their laborers as to voting, by threats of discharge from
employment or by other oppressive means; aud any
person who shall bv such means prevent a laborer
from voting as he pfeases, or shall discharge him from
employment on account of his having exercised his
privileges as a voter, will, on conviction of such offense
before a military commission, be puuished by fine or
imprisonment, or both.
3. It is made the duty, as it is certainly the desire
of the Commanding General, to secure all the duly
registered voters in the State of Georgia an opportuni
ty to vote at the approaching election “freely and
without restraint, fear, or the influence of fraud,” and
he calls upon all good citizens to co-operate wit h him
in his efforts to have the election conducted fairly as
required by law.
By order of Major General Mende.

Assistant Adjutant General.
We are truly sorry to learn that Judge Wm. K.
Griffin, of Morgan, Calhoun county, while out
hunting one morniDg last week in Chickasawhat-
chee creek, was shot by a freedman, who mistook
him, as he said, tor a bear. The negro carried
him home, and in a few hours he breathed his last
Judge Griffin was a prominent aud influential
citizen, and has filled many honorable positions
in the gift of the people of Calhoun, and the loss
of his counsel will be generally feit.— Early Coun

Will Palpitators Eiplod* —The following
comes to us from France :
The India-rubber beautifiers, “pal; talers,” &e.”
are yet more dangerous. At a dinner party given by
a rich personage of the official world, one of Tie ladies
was equally remarked for the exquisite proportions
of her bust and the animation of her conversation.
Those who sat near the lady suddenly he ard, in the
middle of the dinner, and of some witty sally on her
part, a sharp small detonation, such as might be pro-
ditceti by the cracking open of a bean-pod. No one
took any notice of the inexplicable sound but it was
observed that the lady became much less animated,
that she kept one arm raised across her bosom, and
fanned herself incessantly during the rest of the dinner,
though the temperature of of the room was by no
means too high. As s-vm as the company rose tram
the table, the lady, still fanning herself, suddenly dis
appeared; but, as certain sharp eyes among her rivals
had canght sight of a diminished outline ns she
retreated from the sphere of vision, a good deal of
merriment followed her disappearance. The lady’s ab
sence was, however, very short, for she returned to the
drawing-room in the course of a lew minutes, tri
umphant in the same classic perfection that had ex
cited so much admiration during the early part of the
eveniug, and displayed all the aplomb and vivacity
which had made her so charming. The screwing of
the stopper, through which the air is blown into the
class of “fixtures” in questiou having been made
this time sufficiently secure, the charms of Madaine
D underwent no further vicissitudes tlirrngh
the course of the evening.

No Person is Without Influenci*.
—Some persons fail on the high-way
ofiife, because thev cannot be this or
that eminent person. Why not he will
ing to lie themselves? No person, who
ever has, or ever will live, is without
influence. Why not make the most of
that? Since you cannot grasp that which
you wish, why let" what you have slip
through your fingers? No person in the
world is exactly like you. You have
your own faults, but you have also
your own excellencies. Give them air.
Br-cause you are not a poet, should
you not be a good merchant! Be
cause you cannot go to college, should
you therefore foreswear the alphabet?
Because you cannot build a palace
should you not rejoice in your own
humble roof, and that because it is
your own! Will not the sun shine
into your window if you do not per
sist in shutting it out! If you cannot
have a whole hot-house full of flow

rose?
Beware of perjury.—Have you
sworn to support the Constitution of
the United estates? If you have you
will violate your oath if you vote for
the ratification of the Atlanta Consti
tution, one of the principal provisions
of which is directly violative pf the

Chicago, April 11 —St. Mary's Cathedral was
crowded this morning. On an alarm of fire there
was a rush for the doors. A portion of the gal-
eries fell. Three women were killed aud many
persons hurt.
Impeachment Trial—VVhe» will it End —
The Balt.ioiore American’s special correspondent at
Washington, predicts “ that not less than thirty eight,
and very probably forty Senators will vote for the
conviction of Andrew Johnson.” Judge Curtis, oue
of the President’s counsel, is reported to have ex
pressed his belief that the trial will be over by the
18th of April. Colonel Forney, the Secretary of the
Senate, writes to the Philadelphia Press that “ every
body is discussing the probable termination of im
peach ment. Judging by the way the managers
are putting through their witnesses, and the com
paratively small number that remain, three weeks
would seem tc be a ve.ry longtime to finish the work.”
Rev. John C. Simmons, Presiding Elder of tbia Dis
trict, aud an eminent divine of the Methodist persua
sion, died suddenly atThomaston on Friday last. Mr.
Simmons resided here, and was highly esteemed by
all our people. He was Worshipful Master of the
Masonic Lodge here.—Forsyth Advertt*er,~tk.
Significant.—A distinguished Union man of
North Georgia, hearing of General Meade's decision
that Judge Irwin would lie ineligible to the office of
Governor, if elected, remarked that, since he could
not be permitted to vote for a true Union man for
Governor, he would vote for an honest rebel; and
has accordingly declared his purpose to vote for rati
fication and Gen. JnbnB. Gordon.—Atlanta Opinion.
Georgia Battist Convention.—The next session
of the Georgia Baptist Convention will bo held at the
First (Greene street) Baptist Church, at Augusta, on
Friday, 24th of this month-
The following railroad companies have been heard
from, and will pass delegates over their respective
roads at half fare, viz : Georgia, Macon & Augusta,
Macon &. Western. Southwestern, Atlanta &. West
Point.and Atlantic fit Gulf.
Delegates paying full fare coming will return free,
on presenting certificates of membership signed by the
officers of the Convention.
Papers friendly to the cause will please copy.
Crop Prospects in Alabama.—A prominent mer
chant of our city who has just returned from a visit to
North Alabama’states that the wheat crop presents a
splendid prospect; and that the planters are generally
alive to their duties, preparing their fields for full
crops.—Atlanta Intelligencer.
Important —We saw a letter yesterday from a
gentleman nt Washington, dated 7th. in which the
writer says that impeachment is confessed on all sides
to be a failure. He also says that it is the general
opinion that the Spaulding bill to establish the carpet
bag provisional government over Alabama, will not
pass the Senate, and that, among others, General
Banks has expressed an opinion.—Montgomery Mail.
Fire in Macon.—We learn from the Macon papers
that a fire broke ont on Bridge Row in that city, at
one o'clock on Taeaday morning, which consumed’five
houses on that street and four on Whart street, be
sides numereus out-bondings. Believed to be the
