THE REVIEW.
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

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.

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.

corruption or sale will ever attach

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.
