of your readers whom I have heard

~1;,.. icy-.-d e!;.‘, . J but ! now that
ym a.id they had >• , a witno'ses to
vd' t took pi;'.'.... oi election day in
the toll of 18G9 in this place. On
that imy the first great victory over
bayonets and carpet-baggers was
achieved in Georgia by tbo Demo
cratic party. On ibat day every citi
zen of Alb v. io a white skin
rad a U . • 1 .1 in solid column
. : frost tin polli it our City Hall.
' ' . column sto and not alone, for it
wa olosaly pressod on either pide by
the .fur. . £" ns and glistening
•\v our. of Li iUoud States troops, who
were ordered to protect at all hazard
the flag of 11 ta in. What was the
result? On that day—in this city, in
that prt sonce—the Democrats of At
lanta piled . p a majority of 2,300
votes ovo. ..iic ' i emios cf llio State.
The victory, though complete, was
not a bloodless one. Not a citizen
cast I h-t.liot ' l a: election who
did not imperil ids life, for the leaden
messengers of death did fatal work on
that dsv. Atlanta s City Hall Square
nr the place, and ine day ot that elec
tion was the time, where and when
the rule cf aliens ia Georgia received
the blow from which it never recov
ered. Other localities seeing what
tho Democracy of Atlanta had done,
took courage and renewed the strag
gle, and Lho State was redeemed—
yet, ::iraruj>: to nay, Atlanta is to bo
“damned.”
Many such battles have the Derno
ernis of Atlanta won beneath hun
dreds of gleaming bayonets for the
> eopie of Georgia, and in the face of
this fact men, for base and selfish
on -. , nave tried co make the people
believe that Atlanta in rat true to
Osoir'... A fouler sh ader was never
printed or uttered. “Veto against
Atlanta V’ And why? Simply be
cause Macon sent up to Atlanta lur
Turner and tier Fitzpatrick; Savan
nah • F.qiy Harris and her ccle
i;v i ' J r.vi;. Bradley; Alii -
ledgevjJle her esteemed Peter O’Neal,
and Augusta her full bloods, Bryant,
Blodgett and Bullock! These worthy
delegates from such virtuous places
pro the par! ss who “played such fan
tastic tricks before” the "eerie of
Georg:.:: that caused many good men
liiroughoui the btai,e i-o wish that the
. lac.o uhic witnesseu their perform
:-t,!!A . ’ 'iii.:' be visited by nauine and
fire. New 1 ask tho unprejudiced
reader (and T hope I ;un addressing
no other), is this feeling just ? You
are ashed, io piece a oini 'OW over the.
niiv •.vputai.iuii ; one ot your mort
vhv.blo commnnitieo because bad
r.ion in .a met there and tran.jac.ed
bad business.
If this is just, MilledgcviUo is one
of . worit .••> in. tho Union, for
rh ipfonrind citizons know that many
iuf-iirdcz ha to boon bululied and con
summated iimre ( were a burning
shame and c. bumifiation to tho State.
But what is argument worth to a man
who says “di pan Atlanta,” who has
never seen Ah vote? My purpose is
to ask the pet pie to think and ascer
t n for t! mselves win re their inter
est ;ies h; : jo.otest. Tho judgment
and good b-.-'Me o’ all men acquainted
wii'li the r jdaco" k'-dicate Atlanta
H 8 l;i:e piare io- the Capitol. The
ne itiment an 1 feelings of many good
(noons with M Uodgeville. Which
shook 1 centre 1 ? If the people, un
inTuep ed by passion, prejudice or
slander, d f,< : re their Capitol removed
let it bo done by all means, and he is
not a correct or a just citizen who
would autagonizo their wishes.
111 my humble opinion my city has
committed a great blunder in offering
to give tho State one cent as an ad
ditional inducement to locate the
Capitol horn. There is no excuse for
her lavish offer, because tho Capital
building here, as is known to many
intelligent men in every county in tho
State who have inspected both build
ings, is incomparably superior in ev
ery senso to the one at Milledgeville.
[By tho by, a friend to-day has shown
me tho Milledgeville picture of the
“Old Capitol,” which is being circu
lated among tho people. The Mil
led ■ ville folks have boon imposed
upon by their art):;'., for, as they ad
mit it fails to do justice to- the “Hulls
of the Fathers,” it is a good and a
faithful pud; re of one of the'prison
houses on Blackwell’s Island.)
Af Santa’s proposition seems to im
ply that the Atlanta building is infe
rior to the one at Milledgeville for
fiiilc* purposes and uses, which is not
true, p.3 ic known to the representa
tives of the people who have sat in
both. Then, when it in manifestly to
M> : . ,-f the State, from our
cfr.ufTj ■ •■• . to in 70 her Cap .to! io
• ■ -' I ■ , '
teor to carry State burthens? Her
State burden is already heavy, and
nho pays at leant twenty dollars into
tho State treannry while Milledgeville
pays ouo- doing every year for you,
my tax-paying and tux-ridden £lOOllll,
twenty times as much as Milledgeville
does or ever will. Atlanta stood bo
tween you and a relentless invader a
: few years ago, and so soon as Rim fell
into his power she was literally con
sumed from centre to circnmferenco.
MilledgcviUo very aocs: thereafter fell
I into hiu power. She was spared bo-
I cause he knew it would not bo in her
! power to frustrate hr. plans. Ail.int >
• was a barrier ur.d had to bo dcmol
; ishud. Milledgeville being no ob-
I struotion, tho General ran no risk in
j leaving lier untouched and uucon-
I sumod. The “Halls of ou Fathers,’’
|it seems, was not n covott: ■■ p ’>/. ■ to
j our enemy.
Atlanta’s proposition, however un
just to herself, wiU Iw carried ovt to
! the letter, as have all her undertakings
I and covenants with the .‘state ' id her
oroditors. bho pays hor a., iu full,
principal and interest, Her bonds
rank alongside <hois' 1 r‘ . ud
wealthiest cities of t o South, mid
I justly so.
j But the removaliah; in your section
say “wo will take the Capita- beak to
Milledgeville b.icans.;•> the Ra iicals
.aid negroes took it •...way ;” and that
lis nil tho reason tbc-y cau gi re. Now,
if that is i.n argument, no good Geor
gia Democrat should ever itmpeet the

that the negroes avid B.rd'aula io: ve

Of course we can act tel! you, what is
