Now that the smoke of the last Lattle has cleared away, we can take a correct review of the grand result. We are satisfied that a solid South presents a barrier to centralism and despotism. But for the Independent and Green back divergence, which is at last only a ripple upon the great ocean of the political world, the organized Democ>acv had return ed to the next Congress a solid front. As it is the few Indepen dents and greenbacks elected will doubtless act with the Democracy and for two years more all will be well in the House. The Senate is beyond all cavil Democratic to the oore, with just enough major ity to move harmoniously and prevent the passage of any act that will have a tendency to cen tralization. In 1880, the South and West, natural allies, will be arrayed against the North and East ia the pr< sideutial struggle. We give up Pennsylvania and New York, but as an offset claim Ohio, Illinois and Connecticut, With these states and there can be no question of getting them, if Hendricks be tbe nominee, and a solid Sooth, there will he no more eight to seven committee, as the election will not go to the House. As it is tbe Democracy has eigh teen states certain in that body which lacks only two of a majori ty. Then, we candidly believe from the outlook that, unless, the Democracy in national Conven tion assembled, shall cut its own throat by trying to elect such a man as Tilden or Bayard, that victory is certain. We beljeve now that Conklingwill be the nom inee of the Republican par>y. He seems to have the iuside trac. Blaine, driven to the wall in his own state, does not, it appears to ns stand a ghost of a chance. Conkling is by far the ablest and must adroit worker they have. Hendricks on oar side is the best man that we have. With his name at the head, and n good man hs second, either from the Middle or New England states, the De mocracy will start out upon the canvas, occupying the vantage grpnud. Hence upon the whele, the Democracy has made a good tight thus ' far, and should the present and next Cougie-s act discreetly, there can be no doubt of its sneoess in 1880. But divis ions, heartburnings, must cease among ourselves. We of the Booth need not expect a candi date for' the Presidency for at least another decade. Should we act as conservatively in the future as in the past six or eight years, power will be again delega ted to us. Remember, that we monopolised those offices in the purer and better days of the gov ernment, and to oar honor be it said, that we uever betrayed the trust confided. It will come back to as again in doe season, should we continue to preserve intact the only vestige of constitutional lib erty. Let us then bide our time patiently, aud ‘‘in due season we shall reap if we faint Dot,” and this glorious union be restored to its pristine purity, the wonder and admiration of the world. Whenever (Jol. Persons votes against the Democratic party, up on any political question, take our bat. Wa have known his family for forty years and his Democra cy is inherent. He was no Inde pendent, but the only organized Democrat that ran in the nomina tion conventions, as hs stated dis tinctly through his friends that if Harris would retire he would, aud let some third man be the nomi nee, whom he would import, Ilar i ri would Hot agree to this prop ■tottioa, thus becoming the only . and no glory m Dim W EDITOitIAL BREVITIES. County offices. We thought we were explicit enough last week, when we stated that so far as coun ty officers were concerned, as there would be no nomination by the democratic party, we should not advocate the claims of any candi date through our columns. We are for some of the men who an nounce their candidacy through our columns, bnt wont say who. We wish that all of them could be elected. Wetruitorr position is now known. Wo see that the Inter Ocean, one of the vilest radical papers West, classifies Persons Speer,and even Hammond with disorganized democrats, “who are as likely to act with ths republicans as the republicans as the democrats in the oaganization of the next House of Representatives.” We fancy these men, and we know two of these, Persons&Hammond, and we believe Mr. Speer will spurn with contempt any such in timation. Hereafter we shall clasify Hon. B. H. Hill with Dr. Felton, and Hon. Emory Speer. He is ju9t as much an Independent, uutil he wishes an election, as either of them. His letters in behalf of Fel ton, bis eulogy of Speer are no in significant straws. They are in keeping with his celebrated din ning party at the Kimbal House a few years ago, when his warmest admirers could not tall the differ ence between Cameron and him self. That little tele a tele has nev er yet been satisfactorily explain ed. Gen. Gordon was almost unan imously reelected last Tuesday United States Senator as his own successor, despite the innuendos of theFelton and Speer papers. A noble tribute to a man who was not afraid to do nis whole duty to organized democracy. Mr. Hill may congratulate himself if two years hence he meets with as little opposition. We are no prophet, nor the son of a prophot, but if Ben. Hill don't meet with serious opposition when he becomes again A candidate for reelection we shall never Relieve “that coming events cast their shadows before.” I k Hon.B.H. Hill. We believe from derelopements, that this gentle man secretly connived at the elec tion of Mr. Spoer. Ilis eulogy of him in Atlauta last week, confirms the suspicion entertained by many of his political admirers. He had no time to deliver an address in favor of organized democracy, but he did have time to write an am biguous letter which Qid the organ ized more harm than good, a letter, portions of which, Speer never lost an oportunitity of reading when addressiug the people. We had much rather he had not writton a lino than to have indited that let ter. The organized will remem ber Mr. Hill’s disinterostedf?) con duct, when he again comes before the people. Here’s our left hand, nearest the heart, bro. Hanleiter. This samo Dr(?) Pierce has made us similar propositions to advertise his ns trams, alt of which we have indig nantly spurned. It does appoar ftom the columns of many papers in the state, that they will adver tise for a mere nominal pi ice. When in Atlanta some time ago canvassing for advert : sements we were shown contracts made by pa pers that would bankrupt any pa per makiug them. A druggist told us that so eager was one paper to I get a subscription from him that |he absolutely took it in soap on which he made one hundred per j cent. Thank God! we are not yet reduced to those straits. When we are, wo will quit newspaper bussiuess and piek up chips for a living. Mr. Speer, iu bis late speech in Atlauta, tieuied that he got the no gro vote iu this district. That is the coolest assertion he has vet made mauy durriug the campaign. Why they marched the negroes, iu by platoons, companies aud almost regiments and voted them solid for Speer. Tiue illups got the beet of this class of voters, and we are proud to state that bo was honored by the vote of nearly eve ry conservative republican. The negro vote in Morgan aud Clark elected Speer and he knows it. liere they paraded the streets with drums, uutil tber were dispersed by the police, all of* which was done to carry their race solid for Speer. Rut it is all over with uow, aud we hope Speer will make a good representative. STATE NEWS. Col. Snead beats Gibson for Judge in the Augusta circuit. The Lunatic Asylum had some of its out houses burned last week. Leesburg was visited by a fire last week Kerosene blamed for it. Savannah has been healthier this summer and fall than in tbe last decade. Barnesville boasts of several valuable acquisitions to her al ready spendid society. Barnesville’s wells are eroing dry. If those good people are enjoying our rains, wo gueas their wells are being filled. Gordon Institute is in a flour ishing condition. We are glad to hear this, as it is one of the best schools in Georgia. Horn. Tom. Simmons one of na ture’s noblemen has been elected Judge of the Macon circuit distanc icg one' quondam JudgoGarj Grice. Jim Black, (col) of Rome receiv ed a beautiful silver cup as a prize for tho best solo violinist at the Talledega fair. O. P. Marten and Calhonn.aono armed man, had a small duel at Colquitt last week. The one arm ed man was victorious. We are glad to see that our old friend Hon. S. K. Cook, of Pike, is placed on several important committees. He is one of the best members of the House. Duels are a farce iu Washington county, the seconds so arange it that no possible harm can occur and like two game cocks the prin cipals pitch in. That old hero, beloved by all who know him, an honor to the party, state and Union, H.- Y. Jonnson was elected without op position in his district. A grand tribute to a noble man. A certain aim, fifty-four years old in this state, says he always carries a bottle of whiskey in his pocket as an antidote to rattle snake bites. He has only so far been bitten by the worm of the still. Alei k Stephens is a whale polit ically, swallowing tho organized and independent democracy at one effort, and if there is any bigger fish, he ia that. Judges elections seemed to hinge upon the voice of the legislators in the several circuits, whioh is ono of tho most corrupt political rings that ever controlled an elec tion. Col. Lawson of Eatonton is our next Judgo. He is a lawyer of fine ability acd no doubt will wear his ermine gracefully, as well as with dignity. Princo Johannes Gorman speaks of transferring his orange planta tion to Minnesota. There is no telling what amount of enterprise is stored away in the festive head of that gay old bachelor. Miss Hanson ofßutledge wo aro proud to state bore off the prize for being tho best lady rider at the Brick Store fair. The honor could not have been won by one more lovely or deserving. Griffin congratulates herself up on being nearly ont of debt. Let her run crazy on the independent movement, and sho will like the dog in the fable grasp at the shad oic and loose tho substance. Look out Hanleiter. Zebulon Ga, save on elections or other public days, is tho most quiet country shire town in the state. Her citizens are among tbe most clever people to be found in Pike. We shall always love this old town, for there we passed life’s happiest hours. We congratulate our ohl friend Hon. A. M.Speer upon his election to the Judgeship of the Flint cir cuit. He is is one of the ripest law res of the age. He has filled the same position, and when on the bench gave universal satisfaction. Hon. J. M. Mobley was elected G. M. of the Giand lodge of Ma sons at their recent session in Ma con. A deserved honor upon a deserving man. Tho Grand Lodge holds biennial sessions horeafter. Atlanta will likely have a gay time iu lie* municipal election. Nothing can save her numerous aspirants, but a full negro board. Thedose is a bitter aud severe one but these desperate diseases re quire des]>erHte remedies. Let her elect either negroes,carpetbaggers, ; or scalawags as Mayor and alder men, and we will guarantee that hereafter she will prove a united | people. The Political doctors ! are conaultiug now, and we think this remedy will bo prescribed. BISHOP If. TRUE. Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 6th., ’73. Dear Cut. Walker: —Brother i Bishop—so dear to ns all—died yesterday at a few moments after j twelve o’clock. He had been fail ing slowly for the past two months; but had kept up and around the house uutil a week ago Thursday night, when he was taken with a bad sinking spell and was never able only for a few moments, to sit up afterwards. His failing was very rapid at the end and with very little bodily suffering. He had kept np wonderfully and his life was prolonged much beyond j our expectation. He was cheerful till the last, and his mind as clear • as ever until within a short time before he died. He often spoke of you and your family—and how kind they had always been, aud seemed at all times, —when he was able to speak, even in a whis per—to delight iu telling his friends here, how kind all the peo ple of Madison were t j him. I shall write Mrs. Brantley at Balti more, but may not get time to write all the folks in Madison, that I would like, —so if you will say to all his friends, that their kiud uess we sliali never forget, and give them the few particulars of j his death as I have in a hurry tried to write. I meant to have written you before and ofteuer { since we were South ; but being I away from home bo much, and j with so much on my mind, failed to do so. I should like so much to hAar from yon-—all about your folks aud all other news of the town. Remember us all so kindly to all your family, and to all onr good friends.- I will try and write yon someday, some further particulars. Very truly your friend, D. M. Tkle. Died of consumption, in the ci ty of Rochester, New York, on the 15th, of Nov., 1878, surrounded by his good kind relations and I friends. Mother, sisters and J brothers, saw his peaceful and happy exit from this world to a happy and eternal homo, with strong hope in the blessed Savior. Mr. True, was a native of Li ma, state of New York,—he emi grated to Georgia in the fall of 11865 as the pioneer of a company j who bought a large tract of land jin this county.—ln 1866 his bro ther, Daniel M. True, came out and joined him, and very soon his brother, Charlie True, | and their most worthy sister, Miss Louisa True. A more enterpris ing, industrious, kind and hospi table people never moved from their native state and became citizens of the South. B'shop H. True, was extensively known over Georgia, and appreciated for his intelligence, [his enterprise, his kindness and activity in all things that made for a country’s good, he did not forget his old friends in the trying, dying hour, as yon will see from the letter of his brother, D. M. True. He was elected ono of the Board of Trust of the State Agri cnl ural Society, and was an effi - cient officer at the Stato Fair in Macon Ga., the first State Fair held iu Georgia after the war. Colquitt will come out of the present star chamber secret committee, like gold purified by the furnace. That he ever inten tional y became iuvolvt and in bargain con option, or fraud is one thing that you cant make those, who know him rs we do, believe. It j would take a thous ind committees) with evidence as true as holy writ |to cause us to blieve that Alfred H. Colquitt ever sold office for j money, or was ever influenced by pecuniary gain in any of his offic ial acts. The name, Colquitt, as sociated as it is with Georgia’s lienor, and connected with every thing euoobliug, forbids any such ! belief. Well, we are for J. 11. Estill, of the Savannah Neics lor our next Governor. It is time the press should be honored. Col. Estill is our president and we put the ball in tnotiou for his nomination. We will bet our last dollar, if nominated, no charge of bargain corruption or sale will ever attach to his name. Don’t ruin your health, aud, lie sides, make yourself disagreeable to other people by your continued coughiug. A twenty-five cent bot tle of Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup will 1 cure you. Large bottles, 50 cents. 1 MICS. JENKS AND 11EU PAN ORAMA. Tbe latest contribution to cur rent political literature is from tbe bands of Mrs. Jenks, the great Sherman witness, and she hurls a stirring Philippic at the head of | Hon. Ben. Hill. The epistle eon tributed is chiefly remarkable for its glittering display of classical knowledge, and reads as though it might have been fired from the 1 mouth of a pepper-box. The win some lady tersely informs the sen ator that he is a liar, and, having had quite an experience with liars, she ought to know a liar when she sees him. She defends her own fair reputation iu a few pleasing aud rather general sentences, abounding in allusions to Achilles and othei heroes who were popu larly supposed to be invulnerable. The little woman seems to imag ' me that she “is a bigger man than old Grant,” and that the public would naturally be anxious to hear from the lady who saved Sherman with her little tongue, made Hayes president and several other people cabinet officers, put all the return ing board into good places and still refuses to take anything for herself. The woman of New Or leans comes'to the front, and takes the place in history once ceded to the Maid of Orleans. She will make a brilliant figure in our his tory will agnes, but hadn’t called the Georgia statesman a liar. Tne Jerks is determined to be heard, and Sherman trembles lest she become too voluble and tell some thing about tbe famous letter. We will be glad to hear more from the Jenks. Atlanta acted so badly in the late eh ci ion, that she should modestly dec/ine asking the fifth district hereafter to nominate and elect any of citizens to represent tho fifth congressional district,un til she repeats in saek cloth and ashes, and proves her faith by her works. Two more Fulton comities, and Ruben Arnold,an exotic,would have been in Congress instead of Hammond. We believe as it was, that had cousin Dan Pit mau made tho race, he bad been elected. Baby shows are the fashion now bnt as long as mothers continue to i nurse their little ones with lauda j tium or other opiates, they cannot j expect their Babies to look bright, j If your Baby needs medicine get a good and harmless one such as Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup. Have You the Buckeye ? It is a well established fact that Tabler’s Buckeye Pile Ointment will curs, if used according to di rections. The dtlsciilus Hippooas tannuo, or Horse Cbesnnt, com monly known as the Buckeye, has been highly esteemed for many years, owing to the fact that it possesses virtues, lying in the bit ter principal called Esculin, which can be utilized tor the euro of Piles.
