Elsewhere it this issuo wo luy before

private note says, the sentiments ho
therein expresses nro approved ‘ by a
number of our loading eil'zens, and moots

opposed Judge Hawkins for the (Jonvetl

was such that “they desire his services in

Chattooga countv will present us the
name of Judge Hawkins as their choice,
and Bartow county will hem illy second
it.” As wo havo already hoisted the

assured that Bartow will second it at and
we return our thanks to that noble county
for her assurances; and us tbo Borne

If Mr. Hayes is not Preside't I'.jtu

if ho says or does anything good, either
negalively or positively, ior that good he
should have credit given him.
Now while we think he 1 as no. a

yet, wo are bound to concede that ho has
exercised the luuctions of hisoftito much
more to the satisfaction of the people
generally, than any president since the
war. lie lias floated around among tho
people to somo extent, n ,: eg, mingling
and showing the courtesies of a gentle
man, both in his speeches and conduct
and endeavoring to impress upon there
minds that lie is after restoring peace
and reconciliation. Wo have never he "and
of his flaunted in tho "see of Southern
people, that they were “rebels,” and
needed chastisement. 110 may have
chan .ed in some of bis opin'oos and u

ol bis ways, and now ai, imp's to redeem
bis character, by pu -siring a course that
will be calcu'a dto win the approval and

Mr. Haves lias come to pursue “iiiv

was obliged to \, ithdraw tho troops rom

“spiritofreoomy'hit’o 1 and peace. lie
says:
‘l.ie Con ’ • has in ’ .lowed Dr.

pat..Otism over the idea of peace andr
conciliation so rosily held out by that
gentleman's experience with atnl opinion
of l : s fiaudulent Exce''ene.v. Now, we
do not propose to be captious in the
ir.it re, bit it does occur to us that the
Coti; ■' • is eraw'ing a I'ttlo too low io the
d'-t of ht"r" at : ou when it eti’H upon ’’to
people of tho South to luy aside their
‘pa y bickerings and sectional ani
mosities,' and turn to tho support of that
spirit of nationality which has an eye
single to —what? Tho perpetuation ofthe
Republican party in power. Th : s is
oxaetly what tbe bowl for Haves trior -s.
The dismemberment of the Democratic
parly, and tbo building up ofa new power
(or the perpetuity of Republicanism.
Why shot Id tho Democratic pur.y dis
band? Is it an enemy to 'ree government
and the equality of the States? Why
should its members bo called upon to lay
aside their party predelections, arid cease
their war upon tbo power that lias to
long and so cruelly oppressed us? Is it a
sectional party, and has it boon indulging
in hatred against the Constitution of tho
United SLatos? Not at all. It is con
scrva'lve. Its principles sie the same
North ihat they are South. It has for
its object tbo reconciliation o( all section..
The very thing the Courier is exairing
Mr. Hayes fir doing is the thing Democ
racy has been laboring to accomplish for
mativ wear" years.
“Mr. Haves withdrew tbe troops from
South Carolina and Louisiana. True.
But a Democratic House of Representa
tives refused to vote one dollar for the
support of these troops unless they were
withdrawn. Let Dr. Miller and the
Coii.-i- r remember this before they exalt
Mr. Hayes to tho skies as a patriot for
doing that weich he was compelled to do.
Grant himself would have withdrawn
these troops, or else the army would have
been disbanded for the want of sub
sistance.
“Now, we do not grudge Mr. Hayes
the hearty honors pa'd him bv tho
Southern people. It is characteristic of
their el ivalrio hospitality to honor their
guests, and we are glad they did it, nor
have wo any ohjccJon to urge against
Mr. Hayes administiation so far. It is.
so fur as its general scope reaches, on a
Democratic basis; only in its little detr’ls
does it show tbo rad'eah Tho appoint

But wo overlook this in our grateful joy
of tho deliverapcc of our sister .talcs,
and accord to tho President tho honors
due tho high office, and as we sav before
we do not grudge him one single huz/afi'
bui wo do most indignantly protest
against getting down upon our boll'esand
licking the spittle that drops from his
lips, and then squirting it through our
teeth in the face of tbe Democracy, that
grand o*d party which alone stood up for
the ri ;lils of tho Suites when Hayes and
his party wore standing wiili tue’" feet
upon the Southern neck.”

To tue Ed Hot of T u (io +t e:
It is with sorrow that I announce t”
you the death of the above nailed gentle
man. which occu red at Home on Friday
night last. It. was the more sail. oin the
fact be bad just entered a field of usei ill
ness to which he, wo think, was so well
suited -to that of journalism.
I had but recently made Iris acquaint
ance, and thought i could discover in him
a subtle charm that was well calculated to
win all with whom be come in contact.
I was present on the occasion of the
esmuiencoment of the Cherokee Female
College, and listened with pleasure to the
chaste and eloquent address delivered by
him on that occasion, and can say, 1
thought it would have done honor to one
of riper yoars. His eloqueneo seemed to
flow as .ioni a perennial spring, and came
without that labored effort that mars the
beauty of many fine productions publicly
spoken.
He had just moved from Atlanta to
Rome. Atlanta lost in tbe change, and
l!o no gained. But it. is sad to think that
it was for so short a time. We had pre
dicted for him a brilliant future. Such a
rare genius is seldom found in ono so
young. In his death tho city of Rome
a ul the country generally have susta’ned
an i reparable loss Ironi whence wi'l
Iris like cornel Death, it is said, lovr.i a
slriirin ; n ark. Wo truly sympathise with
the family ofthe deceased, and sorrow :
the thought ho could not have rime to
solace the declining years of an honored
father and mother. S. 11.

A Voit e From Barto ir.
To the. Editor of The Oant It :
We observe in the Rome Tribune of
last week, a communication from “Many
Voters,” of Clmttooga county, present
ing the name of Judge Samuel Hawkins
for Senator from the 42d district, and the
editor has hoisted his name for the place
However much we may differ with him
in regard to Chattooga’s claims to tho
balance of Col. Gamble’s term, we most
heartily and cordially endorse every word
lie says relative to Judge Hawkins’ pre
eminent fitness for the position, and ad
mire tbo spirit which prompts him to
ignore county lines, and give bis support
to tbe most suitable mao.
It must be apparent to every thinking
mart, that a capable mao, who was a
member of the late convention, and re
mained at bis j ost, and gave his earnest
a teut'ou to the proceedings and work of
that body, ought to be lieltcr quuhlied to
execute the business of the next legisla
ture, upon which so much devolves than
most others, and such a man is Judge
Hawk'es.
Be'eg a dr'v a. eenant upon the pro
ceedings of the Convention, I bear wit
ness that Judge Hawkins was not a drone
or idler; but an active, zealous, wide
awake working member, and was the
peer of the best in sound, practical judg
ment. and in a zealous advocacy of those
measures of teforni and protection ofthe
toiling masses of our people.
As au evidence of the high apprecia
tion in which ho was hold in that body of
eminent Georgians, it is only necessary to
mention the fact that he was placed on
one of trie standing committees, that of
counties and county officers, and upon the
special committee to locate the capitol.
Tbe control.mg i’flucuce be exerted iri
the leport of those committees, is ac
knowledged b" ail.
This Senatorial district owes to Judge
Hawkins u debt of gratitude for his ar
duous and effective labor in tbe conven
tion, arid while we would feel gratified to
see him repaid by honoring him with tbe
Senatorslilp, our ruling reason for present
ing bis name is, that wo honestly beiieve
that under ex'sting circumstances, lie Can
and will servo us with more aval than
unv man we know.
Such, Mr. Editor, being the sentiments
ofa number of representative men of tli:
district, we most earnestly appeal to the
people of Chattooga to pre.O't o the
convention ofthe •* and district, tbe nu ue
of Judge Samuel Hawkins, and thorough
ly put a quietus upon independent can
didates, and insure the triumphant elec
tion of that sterling mau. Such are the
sentiments of a number of voters of the
county of
Sept. 2.tih. “Ha v. OvV. '
Gt auv end Hayes.
Whilst loud | leans of fulsome praise,
are accorded to Mr. Hayes fur removing
tbo federal troops from Louisiana and
South Carolina, it is proper to reflect that
a Democratic Congress refused to vote
appropriations for the support of tire
army whilst it remained iu thoso down
trodden and oppressed States, and its
removal became a matter of prime neces
sity for Mr. Hayes to order its change of
base. It might have been done long
years ago, and God. Grant knew it; but
to keep up sectional strife, and let the
republican party profit by it, and .hereby
promote liis own selfish pursoscs, he re
fused to do it.
It was not the policy of the radical
party to shake hands across the bloody
chasm, or to take down the bloody-shirt
ensign of there party, for fear the country
woo'd be at peace, and the Democratic
pai.” would ouce more establish its mild
sceptre over our distracted and ruined
country. Sectional hate and vKupenujon
must needs te continued in order that
carpet-baggers and scalawags might be
enabled to fatten upon the sp, ils of
Oil’co.
Gen. Grant was a suppl’aut tool in ihe
hands ol an unscrupulous pany, and the
part ho acted during his eight years ad
ministration will be the theme of invec.ive
for uituro bisiorians, woo will leecd iui
partiallv the events of that sad era in our
country’s Irislor.v. He ‘ knew his duty,
I but be did it not,” atul future generators
! will wonder that such a venal polit eian
should ever have held sway so long, and
will be soirJed that such an ovation
should be tendered him bv the enligb tun
ed na.'ons of liurepe r. icr such a wanton
abuse of bis power as ibe Chief Execu
tive office iu a ienub ,: can government,
j Lno people of South Carolina and Louis
iana will remember him as their oppres-
I sor, and the entire South wifi regard lriuj
as an unmitigated tvraut.
Tneu aud Now.
I nder the above heading the llich rood
j <> '. ■ ve"’ uksi ore re
' ihus'y:
1 But the (.uesrions arise, Did not the
President know afi he now tolls in ou
defence rnd p’arie 1. Si fall? Was he not
j aware of the fact that we were mlsvepre
] sented when the same hea-t that now
1 gushes out sympathy 'or us was ‘bleeding
for ihe poor negre?’ Did he not know
i that all the clamor about dagger to the
| “old flag,’ ‘rebel ela : m,’ and the ‘rion
federate debt, that was raised by radi
calism in the last campaign, was the
veriest bosh? Was it not palpable to
him that the stories of Southern out
rages, murders and assassinations, with
which his organs teemed, were concocted
to order?
“To these questions every thinking man
must answer ‘Yes.’ But last fall the
ensanguined nether garment was getting
b ; m votes. Vituperation and slander
paid. The mendacity of Morton, Chan
dler, Cameron k Cos,, served a put pose.
Tbe President could not afford to have it
exposed; could no 1 afford 11 tell the truth.
He was playing for one stake then and lie
won i_. At present ho is playing for
for another.
‘ The most ingenious of Mr. Hayes’
apologists cannot conceal the fact that in
bis zeal to seduce tbe South into support
ing him he has placed himself in a most
humiliating position. Id his Southern
speeches, particularly, he makes an un
qualified admission that his campaign for
the presidency was fraudulent from be
ginning to cml. The Pittsburgh l'o<
properly presents the csss when it .-ays:
“As we read Mr. Hayes’ speeches at
the South, there is a confession between
| the lines that carries with it more of dis
-1 grace and d'shonor than has ever attach
\ ed to American President or Statesman,
i He virtually adni'ts that bis campaign
I last fall—the presentation of his case to
tbe American people bv the Radical
party —was one monstrous lie; that he
slandered, maligned and persecuted the
| people he is now coddling with sweet
words, in order to inspire ibe worst pas
sions among tbe unthinking of bis sec
tional partisans; that he waived the
‘bloodv shiil’ and its attendant inventions
of murder, rapine atid robbery to cheat
people ont of their votes; that the talk of
rebel claims was a shrewdly devised fic
tion; that ‘the rebel war debt’ was an im
pudent fie, and the ‘payment for slaves'
the very exaggeration and culmination of
pobtieal malice and falsehood.”
A Fear'ul Comoa • sor.
A cate ul comparison if statistics will
show the fol’owing results: Tbo number
of persons killed in battle, or died of dis
ease or w.uods in baitlc all over tbe
world from 1 .>2 to R 77, a period of
twent"-five years, is one million nine
hundred and for.y-eight thousands. '1 he
ns. of wars for the same length of tone is
twelve sixty-five milbons of
dollars. This enb aces the wars of th. l
the world.
Now compare this world's war bill w ith
the Drinking bill ofthe United St-tes
alone. Dr. Young, chief of the Bureau
ofSla.isricc estimated tbe sale of liquor
in 1> 71, to be J.0<)0,000. Thus multi
plied by “5, gives ¥ • >,000,<X)0,00:>, or iwo
millions, nmc hundred at.d thirty-five
thousand dollars more than the cost of all
the wars during tho same time.
It is cs,: liated that 80,000 persons die
arnnn'ly from strong drink. This multi
plied by 2o years, gives the roll of victims
to the rum traffic of 'ico h‘l ioni; being
fifit-two thousand more than slain in all
rile world’s wars.
Thete nro oOfif.’oO who'esale and retail
b’quor dealers, and 40, pc-sons making
liquor in the Un’ted States. Now, at $2
per day, or ¥jOO per year, these persons
thus engaged in some lawful branch of
indus'.-v, would add to the wealth of tbe
coun.rv $272,812,0)0 per annum. Six
hundred thousand drurl.atds lose half
their timo by drinking, making a loss ol
$ 1 JO,OOO-000. There are ore n< 1 ion,
four hundred and four thousand, three
hundred and twenty-three male tipplers,
who 10..0 at lorn t one day in every week
at their tippling, amounting to
0 '.‘\692. These three items amount to
tbeenoiuious sum of sfio o' 1 - per
year.
Tbe actual drink bill of Georgia in 1871,
ns statistically ascertained, was nearly
$13,000,000.
Besides these fearful facts, ninety
million bushels of grain are annually
destroyed in this traffic. Now add to
these cos. s, those of pauperism, crime,
jails, courts, etc., comprising three
four riis of our taxes, and then we begin
to see and real’:e how our national re
sources are wasted, what occasions bad
trade and bard times. Do not these fea -
fill comparisons, facts and fl^tires solve
t’’e entire * labor question” now so in
tensely agitating the pub' ; c u ind? Yet
,or all these fea• ul realities, some pro
fessedly religious people wifi lend their in
fluence cubes directly or indirect 1 .•• to this
life and sou’destroy'’g traffic. 1! wider!
ponder well tbo above f'acis.
From a communication just received
from tbe American Bible Society, we
learn that during tbe sixty-one years of
its existence, it has issued C‘.000,822
copies of the sacred Scriptures. The
gratuitous work for the year amounted
lin value to ¥2 .0,4 ,fi 03. The n gregate
r-ee'pts, g'* ~07y.n0, exceeding by
510..8t.2t> those of the previous year.
I Copies issued at home and abroad during

Below will be found the prospectus of

T>e memorable strike which was in

formed and conducted in such a rude
and illegal manner. But it is to be re
gretted that millions of property was de>

the s.i kers were reduced to starvation
and rain.
I n r orvunate!y a worte resu't than those

work are prowling over the count y,
begging provisions from house to house,

and rctirg oil the quest unable adage that
‘ tbe wo Id owes them a living,” they I

These horrid vampires are to be found
iu every section of the coun ry. Leaving
tbe Nui'rii in vast hordes, they are spread
ing all over the country, many of them
oporat : ng in the most quiet, rural districts
aud it behooves our people to watch them
careiully, and be ever on tho alert when
about their premises. Carpet bag in j
hand, they are in many places bke the
locos s in Egypt, or “the roaring iion
