THE LATE ELECTIONS.
Death-Knoll of Uadicnlinm.
The results of the late elections
will inspire the lovers of constitu¬
tional liberty with a new hope.—
Verily, the day is dawning, and the
truth is beaming in upon Northern
minds, that the destructive southern
policy of the Radicals, is danger¬
ous to their liberty as well as ours.
The New York World, in a jubil¬
ant arlielc in reference to the splen¬
did triumphs in Indiana, Ohio &c.,
nays:
“The now« of this magnificent Dem¬
ocratic triumph, presaging the wider
and util! more complete victories of
the •end Ih'tnocrat'jf'In joy November, will
to the hearts of millioiiH in
every part of our land. It will
breathe new life into the disordered
industries and the sinking commerce
of the Atlantic States; it will inspire
with fresh courage the despairing
agriculture of the mighty West, rob¬
bed so long by rag money and a
ruinous tariff of all the rewards of
steady labor, under benignant sea¬
sons slnuueh upon a teeming soil, it will
hind tho the bleeding shattered wounds arid
up limbs and
pour measureless joy into the broken
heart of the prostrate South, now nt
length ere long to he restored to the
Union of States, and restored to the
jiist equality liberties of their sclf-gove 1T1
meat, the and laws.”
The Democratic majority in In¬
diana is 15,000; ami in Ohio about
20,000
The lower house of the next Con¬
gress will in all probability he Dem¬
ocratic. Ohio, which went against
the Ropubliewn* a year ago by less
than a thousand majority, has just
gone against them by a majority
twenty times larger on the aggregate
vote, and altera Its delegation, in
Congress from 13 Republicans ami
7 Democrats to exactly the opposite
proportion—7 Republicans and 13
Democrats; and linTbina, which
went half Democratic and half Re¬
publican iu 1872, now goes decisive¬
ly against tho Republicans on the
general vote, and changes its Con¬
gressional* delegation from 10 Re
piihlicans and 3 Democrats to 4 Re¬
publicans and 0 Democrats. There
is no material change iu Iowa and
Nebraska. Each is said to give a
little stronger Republican majority
than in 1872 on the State ticket, but
this does not change their Congress¬
ional delegates. All the nine Iowa
members wore Republican* before,
ami all of those just, elected to the
next Congress are Repuhlians; so of
tie one Nebraska member. There
is, there fore, no Republican gain of
member* in these States to repair
the Itepuhlicaa lueses in Indiana and
Ohio. West Virginia goes Demo¬
cratic and changes Uh Congressional
delegation from two Republicans
and one Democrat lo three Demo¬
crats. Arkansas elects a Democrat¬
ic State ticket and adopt the new
Constitution; but no elect ion for
mem hers of Congress was held. To
nun up the Congressional results:
The Republicans lose and the Dem¬
ocrats gain In Ohio fi members; the
Republican* lose and the Democrats
gain iu Indiana 6 members; and the
Republican* lose and the Demo¬
crats gain iu West Virginia 2 mem¬
bers, making a total loss on one side
and gain on the other of 14 mem¬
bers, or a change of 25 vote* in Site
next Congress. Adding to this the
result in North Carolina, w here, on
the till) of August, the election
changed the Congressional delegates
from 3 Republicans ami 5 Democrats
to 1 Repub LNMimiid 7 Democrats, we
find that the elections held up to
(his time have changed the relative
strength of the two parlies iu the
lower House of Congress as follows:

That Grant is opposed to all the
reconstruction measures—that the
good citizens of Louisiana, the
mocrats, are corrupt, and as much to
blame for the troubles there as the
Kellogg and Longstreet faction—and
that all men are born equal, and the
negro equal to the white man, not in
size or in color, but—how he didn’t
say—is a new dish of Mr. Stephens’
crow which we can't go.

Owlv three negroes hare been
elected to the Georgia Legislature
this year: Tunis Campbell, of McIn¬
tosh ; J. Blue, of Glynn; W. C. Ba¬
con, of Liberty. Upon a test vote
the chances for the negroes to save
their bacon will look mighty blue.
The old .Radical slogan that “the
Campbell’s are coming” will be dim¬
ly heard in the distance.
Thk Great State Fair is pronounced
on all hands a grand success. It is
said there were more people on the
grounds Wednesday and Thursday
than ever attended a previous fair in
Georgia. The general display is
very extensive; anil they arc having
a jolly oTd time with the races.
The Augusta papers of Wednesday
publish Hon. A. II. Stephens’great
speech in that city on the loth. It is
about the same that our people lis¬
tened to on the 13th. The Chronicle
and Sentinel very sensibly remarks
that Mr. Stephens’ defense of Grant,
etc., does not represent the feeling
of the people of the Eigth District,
although Mr. Stephens is the Demo¬
cratic nominee for Congress.

The October frosts arc nipping
the Radical mushroom in the West
mightily, and we opine the cold,
chilly winds of November will leave
it completely wilted.
Ik Grant is really opposed to the
reconstruction acts, it is a great pity
that nobody ever found it out but
Mr. Stephens.

Liberty Hall, /

Editors 'Ehnfis find Planter —
Gents: I have just seen the issue of
your paper of the 17l h iust., anti no
flec a cornriiiifiiiiation in it, over the
signature of “ Special,” to which I
think il, propir for rue, through your
indulgence, to make a brief reply.
Tho “grotis misrepresentation” of
“my position and language” in my
speech in Sparta on the J3th lust,
which appeared in the tcUgram to
the Macon and Atlanta papers, and
to which I referred in my counter
telegram, was the statement, that in
the^speech I had said that the “issue
before the Country is not the Cirit
lliyhts llill$ &c. So far from mak¬
ing tiny such statement, I was most
explicit in declaring that this was
now the yrent issue between okn
THALIHM and eONSTirt rt'lNAI.ISM.
The Louisiana allair, I stated, in my
opinion was a side as well as minor
issue, and had been gotten up nt the
time it was to divert the popular
mind at the North from the rent great
issue.
It was for nothing reported in the
telegram touching what 1 said about
Grant, that I sent the coun¬
ter telegram—as “ Special ” seems to
suppose—though the tone of that, in
this respect, 1 did not think was
altogcther just to me.
I take occasion, Messrs. Editors, to
say that your sketch, or synoptical
report, of tlie speech, which I find in
the same paper, is one of the bes f
rr/iorts of the sort I have ever seen
of any of my speeches. Such re¬
ports are, of necessity, always more
or less detective in some parts set
forth, as well as in some omissions
of parts. In yours referred to “ITTs"
is a date given which ought to have
been “17'JX-JW;" anti there is also an
error in connecting tin* name of Jef¬
ferson with the action of tho Vir¬
ginia Convention in 1830. These,
however, are small matters. I have
no complaint to make of your report
as a whole.
Very respectfully,
Alexander II. Stei’hfns.

Dear tVicntl* of Sparta : It i* very
true that the tlet'eat of our worthy
Metieliee lias been carried out. just
as it ought to have been. And An¬
drews: fur liis part he hud no more
business running than 1 did, and I
have its much business as a cow lias.
1 am coming in on tin* hack; hut
hack or trout. I do not support such
men as they are. Andrew* will do
to ride Dial old black mule of liis.
ami wortbv Metieliee will do to go
tiowtt on Hear creek to cut barrel
wood by moonshine and feed on
barrel staves; but those honorable
gentlemen who yon m»v\ have elect¬
ed for Representatives will not go
up there for the art of depredation,
hut for economy. Such men can add
tt» the Constitution. These men can
not be led. but they can lead. 1 wish
that such men as John L. Culver and
John It. Billion was elected all over
the State. These men are great men.
and are able to represent this people
in the highest. 1 am a Republican,
but I am willing to trust good men.
more especially They when 1 know tlicir
motive. are going to prevent
devilment instead of carrying it on.
The white and colored all ought to
pull together, any way : then the De
vil w ould not get between tlie peo
pie. It the W II it 1 * llieil hud done all
over tlie State as they ought to have
done, wc would not have been in
much trouble. Thev nailed until

The late elections show’ what the
people think of the back-salary grab.
Of 36 members of the House, in
43d Congress, who refunded back
pay, nine have been elected to the
next Congress. Of two hundred and
seven members who pocketed back
pay and laughed at the thirty-six,
only one has been elected to the next
Congress. Some very wise men
may justify their action in pocketing
the people’s money; but they can’t
beat it into the heads of the people
that this little game was morally
right—never.
While the Western States are
piling np Democratic majorities.
Grant is distributing soldiers thro
out Alabama, Tennessee and Loui¬
siana, for the purpose of carrying
the elections for the Radical party.
We hope that the people of those
•States will stand up firmly for their
rigl^js, be and not permit themselves to
terrorized by rascally deputy
marshals.

Hancock Superior C o u r t.
OCTOBER TERM, 1874.
Wo, the Orainl Jury, selected and sworn for
October Term of the Superior Court of Han
cork county, beg to submit the following pre¬
sentments;
First, the report on I’uhlir Records, received
at the hands of Messrs. LaFayette Howell,
Henry II. Harris, and DeLamar Turner, com
miller appointed by the Grand Jury of the
April Term of this Court, 1*74, to examine tlie
hooks of the < lerk of i he Superior Court, Coun
ty Treasurer, and Ordinary, we submit in full:
Jlejmrt of Commute to Inspect Hooks
of County Uppers:
We first examined the condition of the books
of the < lerk, all of which, consisting of Re¬
cords of Deeds, Mortgages, Ac.. Minutes of
Court, Dockets (civil ami criminal}, we find
to he neatly, and, to our eyes, correctly kept.
We next went into a close and minute exam¬
ination of the books or the Treasurer; taking
first his hook of receipts and cash book, and
comparing one with the other, and then going
through with all the vouchers, and comparing
•hem with the receipts. We find his accounts
all correct to scent, lie has vouchers for ev¬
en thing that lie lias paid out, except Jury
money nnd to paupers. Right here we beg
lea .’e to recommend, that in order to prevent
fraud and imposition, the pauper system be
remodeled. For instance, the list that the
Treasurer now lias is the same one that the
Treasurer in 1*71-2 had. and perhaps needs re¬
vision. We therefore suggest that the pauper
list 1st revised semi-annually, to wit: on the
first day of April and OcMsTof each tear.
Wc find that the offices of ( lerk and Treas¬
urer being represented by one man, puts into
liis hands the |Miwer of doing considerable evil
to the Treasury, viz: He, as Clerk, has the
power of drawing from himself ns Treasurer,
without other warrant, am. jvbv money; now
while we apprehend no harm may accrue ot
•he county with the present Incumbent, under
this arrangement, in the ease of a dishonest
• lerk and Treasurer, it might accrue.
Wc next went into the examination of tin
books of the Ordinary, all of which ive find
properly kept, and all matters of record
sarv to be recorded properly written uptodate.
We find that lie has issued during the year, 17:t
marriage license*, most of which have been
returned ami registered.
We neglected, in its proper connection, to
state that we find a balance on hand in the
Treasury of (1764 53 neve u hundred ami sivt> -
four dollars and fifty-three rents.
L. I’owki.i.,
IlKNKV II A KltlS,
Ht l.AM.Ut Tl ItSEIt.
Wc recommend, with reference to the pati
per* of the county, that the t ounty Judge t*on
•*'""' !" apimint three commissioners from
each Militia District, to attemlto the distribu¬
tion of the pauper fun.I.
The Jury find that some of the Militia Dis¬
trict lines nave become so indistinct that it is
necessary to resurvey them, viz: the indistinct
l"’rtnm nf lines between tilth uml tilth ami
•Olh Districts; also, between II2)ti and I14l)i
Districts, and we authorize the Ordinary),,
em|i|ny a e«m|ielent surveyor to run said lines,
ami lin t ounty Judge have the 0 x 1 * uses |,.nid
for the *aid *urve> out of the county funds.
We find, u|mui investigation, it IS not IltHTS
sary to build a bridge r Heaver l»am < nvk.

In neeordanee with suggestion* from the
Judge of the t ounty t oiirt. we a-k that our

The following named Justice* of the I’carc
have sutiiuitted tlu-ir ihH'ket*. viz; Dr.

II. *lii\er». Notar) Public in«lh DUtriet*.
not submitted their docket*.
We have examined the tax Imok*. and
that the pnqiert} of the count) ha* been
turned r a just and fair valuation.
We recommend that our county Judge
confer w ith the ordinary of Warren countv
reference to building abridge across tin > rft’O
chee river at I* .Jones’ Fori I, a:»»l we
thorize hint to ett-operate in Imildiug the
bridge.
Attention ot the proper authorities j* called
to the Railroad eixissing near the In |*it. in the
b'Jnd District. Also, the road (r>>ni A. .1. Km
to Town Greek: also, the Linton and Milledge
vtlle road; all in the ll’tli district; and the
bridge and abutment* over Tow n Creek, near
Gallon ay*. A!*', to the fact that the
leading from llardw nVs to the Powellton and
Mav field road, in the 111th district, has not
been worked, i. e., to Thomas Mien’s fence.
Attention '» also ealle 1 to ttv> following
bridge*, viz: the bridge over Brown's *j,rit g
Branch, in Pln.1 district, and the bridge over
>houlderl«»ne ( reek, at M> les Harris' old mi
*iie. atx* in unsafe condition; also the Soi
over Martin's l revk. near Mrs. t oteman’*
plantation.
The Jury recommend that fifty copies of the
readtaw«, as compiled by Lewi* F. Garrard,
!w' purchased, and each rea l commissioner tie
furnished with a copy; the same to Ik' paid for
out of the county treasury.
Wc recommend that Mr. \ M. Dnltose bv*

ties to the necessity of immediate action in re¬
gard to the jail.
In our examination of the present court
house, wc feci tlint we have not acted hastily,
and have not, witlioutdue deliberation, reach¬
ed our conclusion. We And it unlit for, and
inadequate to the transaction of the, business
of the court, either with convenience or com¬
fort. We believe it to lie utterly incompatible
with the reputation for public-spiritcdncs*
and enterprise which our county justly merits.
And while wc would not, without groat cau¬
tion, urge any measure that would increase the
present burdensome taxation of our people, we
believe the cost necessary to the erection of a
new and better one—such as our people would
approve—can be raised in such a manner that
the burden will be but lightly felt by anyone.
Wc therefore recommend the building of a new
Court House; and for the purpose of raising
the necessary funds for the erection of the
same, we recommend the proper authorities
bo authorized to petition the next General As¬
sembly of this State to pass an act empowering
the issue of I Hinds of the county to the amount
of twenty-five thousand dollars, payable in
equal instalments, during the years of 1876,
1877, 1878, 1879, and 1880; bonds to bear eight
percent, interest, viz: five thousand due at
twelvemonths from the first day of March,
1875, and that the county authorities
be authorized to levy and collect an
ad valorem tax for the year 1873 sufficient to
pay the first maturing bonds—principal and
interest—and so on each succeeding year, un¬
til said bonds, with the accruing interest, be
fully paid.
We request Thomas M. Turner, Thomas I.
Little and Frank White to co-operate with the
County Judge in the arrangements for the con¬
struction of the new Court House.
The following gentlemen have been appoint¬
ed a committee to examine the I’uhlic Records
and report to the next Grand Jury at the April
Term of this court, in 1874, viz: S, L. Eatillo,
F. M. Little, and .lames Ttass.
In taking leave of His Honor, Judge Pottle,
we thank him for his leniency and courtesy to
our body; to Solicitor-General Lumpkin, we
acknowledge our many obligations for the in¬
valuable services rendered our body in prose¬
cuting our business.
