MATHEWS, OP TALBOT. COUNTY CONVENTION. At the request of a large number of the citizens of Upson county, a convention of the county is called, to be held at the Court House, on Saturday, the first day of Oc tober next, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for the House of Representatives A general attendance on the part of the people is earnestly urged, that the deliber ations of the convention may be harmonious and the result satisfactory. Come one, come all 1 The convention, when it assembles, will determine the manner of selecting a candi date, but it is suggested by a great many citizens that the selection be made by bal lot. In the House on Tuesday last, a bill to incorporate the Indian Springs Railroad Company was read the third time and pass* ed. Stuart L. Woodford, is the name of the Republican candidate for Governor of New York who is to be beaten by the Democratic candidate—the present Governor Hoffman. A huge vote is expected. Gen. P. M. B. Young, of Bartow, is the candidate for Representative to Congress from the Seventh District. Gen. Young is represented as a strong roan, politically, and will call out the full vote of the party. The Republicans are dubious over the prospects of the party in Alabama, Louisi ana and Arkansas. They admit that intes tine discussions and other causes are likely to damage, and probably defeat them, “horse, foot and dragoon.” The President of the State Demorcratici Convention, Gen. A. 11. Colquitt, has issued a call for the State Democratic Executive Committee to meet in Macon on Thursday next, the 27th instant, to elect a chairman to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Judge Linton Stephens. Horace Greeley’s friends charge the Woodford men with defeating the philos opher at the recent Republican State Con* vention at Saratoga, through bribery. The name of Woodford has been sadly mixed up with these charges, and he has been called upon to resign, to satisfy the people that be was not a pai ty to the fraud. QUERY. In the even t of the passage of the Electron Bill, now pending in the lower branch of tbe Legislature, would it not be a wise policy to decline making any nomination in the county Convention, in order that time may be given the members of the State Central Executive Committee, to meet and determine upon a course of action to be persued ? We understand that this is to be done, or has already been done, in several counties in the State. We wish to secure concert of action. Toe New Era makes the following nom inations for the Presidential campaign of 1872. For President, Ulysses S. Grant; \ ice- President, Amos T. Akerman ; and offere the following as its ticket for 1870 subject to the Nominating Conventions of its party: First District, John W. CTNeal, of Lowndes; Second District, Richard H. Whiteley, of Decatur; Third District, James Johnson, of Muscogee; Fourth District, George Wallace, of Baldwin; Fifth District, Ishatn Fannin, of Morgan : Sixth District, W. R. Bell, of Banks; Seventh District, James L. Dunning, of Fulton. The latest developed phase of Radical fairness and honesty is the system of‘bolt ing’ adopted by Radical members of Legis lature. It is a devilish species of partial men tary ingenuity, seldom resorted to but by bad men, who take this method to retard or prevent legitimate aotion. Many times within the past fortnight this has been done and business seriously interrupted. The bolt of a large number of legislators tbe other day when the matter of seating two Democratio Representatives elect, come up, vra« a cowardly and oontempt'ble act, but perfectly in keeping with legislation carri ed out since the incoming of Radicalism. In anticipation of the coming State eleo* tions, those secret organizations known as ‘Loyal Leagues,’ are preparing for work. This verifies an assertion we have repeated ly made—that our opponents are well and thoroughly organized. We must do the same rs we would enter with any prospect of success. On Tuesday the 20tb, the Na tional Executive Committee of tbe Union League, met at tbe 6t. Nicholas Hotel in New York, at which Gov. Geary, of Penn sylvania presided. “Reports of a satisfac tory nature weie made from several State* in regard to the coming elections. Certain detail* of a secret nature were perfected, de signed to give effect to legislation in behalf of a fair (?) election recently enacted by Congress.” The Southern States we re ported to be “in a satisfactory condition/’ In suggesting tbe propriety of organizing ourselves, we must not bo understood as advocating or countenancing secret associa tions, such a oourse is impolitic, and in the end, dangerous. Let us organize, but let it not bo done in dark closets or at midnight hours. DISTRICT CONTENTION. Foistth, September 21, 1870. According to previous appointment, a Convention of the Democratic party of tbe 4th Congressional District met this day in Forsyth for the purpose of nominating can didates for the unexpired term of the 41st, and for tbe term ot the 42nd Congress. On motion of G. W. Adams, Maj. B. F. Ward, of Butts, was called to the chair and T. B. Cabaniss, of Monroe, and J. J. Hunt, of Scalding, were appointed Secretaries. Upon a call of tbe counties composing the District, the following delegates appeared and enrolled their names: Baldwin —T. F. Hewell, F. C. Furman, Sam’l A. McComb. Bibb— J, B. Cumming, T. J. Summers, Jackson DeLonche, James Tinsley, C. A. Nutting, R. W. Stubbs. Butts— Henry Fletober, B. F. Ward. Henry —Elijah Foster, David Knott. Jasper —L. A. Lane, T. R. Williams, M. W. Pope, J. 0.

Barclay. Upson —E. A. Flewellen, J. I. Ilall. Wilkinson —Allen L. Barge. On motion of T. F. Newell, Esq., it was— Besotted, That a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast shall be necessary to con stitute a nomination. The names of Col. W. J. Lawton, of Bibb, J. S. Boynton, Esq., of Spalding, and L. 11. Briscoe, of Baldwin, were put in nomina tion, and the Convention then proceeded to ballot for a candidate for the 42d Congress. Upon the sixth ballot, Col. W. J. Lawton, having received a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, was declared duly nominated as the Democratic candidate in the 4th Congressional District for the 42d Congress. On motion of M D. Cody, Esq., tbe nom ination was made unanimous, and Col Law ton was also unanimously nominated as a candidate for the unexpired term of the 41st Congress. On motion of Capt. L. A. Lane, a com mittee consisting of Capt. L. A. Lane, Col. J. D. Stewart and Maj. T. F. Newell was appointed to inform Col. Lawton of his nomination, and request his acceptance of the same. On motion, the proceedings were ordered to be published in all the Democratic papers of the District. The Convention then adjourned sine die. B. F. WARD, Chairman. T. B. Cabaniss, 1 J. J. Hunt, j secretaries. The following extract which we clip from the Boston Post illustrates tbe beauty of Radical rule in South Carolina. We re commend its perusal by those who prate so much of 'equal rights,’ ‘free ballot,’ etc.: A late South Carolina paper furnishes us with an example of the Radical method of conducting the present election campaign, which gives an idea of the practical bless ings of the franchise as enjoyed by the freedmen, and shows the way in which loy al leaguers attempt to win votes. A color ed man by the name of Martin, who had the temerity to suppose that the Fifteenth Amendment gave him the right to think and vote according to tbe dictates of his own judgmantand conscience, undertook to sympathize with the Reform party, haying the good sense to perceive that Radicalism, under the Scott rule, was every day increas ing the burdens of taxation and oppression under which the people of the State, black as well as white, are suffering. Martin be ing an intelligent man, had done much to wards enlightening his colored brethren, and had rendered other good service in the cause of reform. The dogs of tbe Radical war were consequently let loose upon him, and on a recent occasion be was assaulted and narrowly escaped with his life. A gang of Radicals waylaid l biro as he was returning from church at night, charging him with being “a d—d Democratic nigger, who was assisting the white people to re store slavery,” and threatened to kill him, unless be would promise to forsake the Re form party, which he would not do. He managed to escape, but was shot at, fortun ately without injury: The assailants were subsequently arrested and committed to jail, but afterwards released through the inter cession of a Radical colored justice of the peace, who went personally to tbe Radical colored jailer and demanded that the pris oners should be set at large. And, upon a pretence of some sort, Martin himself was afterwards arrested and required to give bail in the sura of SSOO, which he foand no difficulty in doing. This is the kind of freedon which the freedmen enjoy under Mr. Sumner’s “E ploribus unum” guarantee cf a republican form of government. The argument which the Radical negroes who assaulted and would have murdered Martin were taught to repeat, that it is the plan of the Demo crats when they have the power, to restore slavery, is a favorite one at the South, with unprincipled carpet-bag politicians, and is naturally enough extensively effectual in holding the ignorant blacks who have just escaped from physical pondage in a still worse form of slavery to the Radical party. The following It section 1 of the Election Bill as agreed opon by the Repoblioan State Central Committee, and endorsed by Attorney-General Akerman: Section 1. The General Assembly of Georgia hereby enacts, That an election shall b* held, beginning on tbe 20th day of December, 1870, and ending on the 22d of December, 1870, for members of Congress to 6erve during the unexpired term of the 41st Congress of the United States, and for members of the 42d Congress ; for Senators ia the State Senate for each district num bered in the Constitution with an odd num ber ; for memoers of tbe House of Repre sentatives of the General Assembly; for Sheriffs, Clerks of the Superior Court, Tax Collectors, Tax Receivers, County Treas urers, Coroners, and County.

Note . — The Lincoln administration is omitted, for the reason that the extraordi nary expenditures of that administration were occasioned by tbe war, and could not be fairly compared with Grant's or previous administrations, —although the cost of the Florida and Mexican Wars were paid by the above named Democratic administra tions. “Thirty Years’ War.” —A Bounty.— The American Agriculturist will, on Janu ary Ist, enter upon its 30th year of unceasing war upon ignorance, poor crops, unprofitable labor, poor housekeeping, humbugs, etc, etc., and the Publishers issue a call for still further recruits to their immense standing army. Tbe Bounty of fered is a free gift of all the rest of this year’s volume to subscribers for 1871, coming in now. Any person subscribing this month, will thus get the paper for 15 months at the price of 12. We advice every person, not a subscriber, to fall in with the offer. No cheaper or more valua ble journal is published in the world, for tbe Household, for the Garden, for the Farm —in City, Village, or Country. It is full of information for every one—is most beautifully illustrated with a very large number of the finest engravings, which are both pleasing and instructive, and its ample pages are prepared by a strong corps of able, intelligent, practical persons, who know what they write about.—Tbe terms are only $1 50 a year ; foor copies for $5 ; ten copies for sl2, or $1 each for clubs of twenty. These prices are good for 15 months now. Probably nowhere else can so much of real valoe be obtained for so little money. The Publishers are Orange Judd A Cos., 245 Broadway, New York City. CROW. The black meD and their political friends go out to hunt, and occasionally bring down fat offices, whereupon tbe white place-hun ters say to the black ones, in every instance, “Now yon can do the voting and we will take the offices, or we will take the offices and yon can do the voting.” Selma, September 21.—Ben. Turner n negro of thia city, was to-day nominated by the Radical Convention for Congress from the Ist district. Reynolds of Wilcox, Buck of Mobile, and Coan of Dallas, all carpet-baggers, were candidates for the nomination. Tbe white radioals are talking of bold ing another convention. “Halt a Negro.”—The New York Timaa speaks thus of Fred. Douglass: “The nom ination of Fred. Douglass for Congress, to fill tho vacancy occassioned by tbe retire* ment of Hon. Noah Davis, is being discuss ed in Monroe and Orleans Counties. In point of intellectual ability the District could not do better; but we doubt if our Republican friends in that locality have attained to that exalted disregard of preju dice, which would accept as a representa tive even “half a negro,” which is all that Fred, claims to be.” Isn’t this very queen talk for a Republican paper?— Carolines Farmer , SYNOPSIS OF TELEGRAPHIC NEWS, Domestic. St. Louis, S«pt. lo.—T e Radical Coo ▼eution in the Sixth District split. The Cuoserrativto Republicans withdrew and made a separate nomination. The Democrat Bf«te Convention of Kan* gas nominated a foil ticket. Their resolu tions favor taxing Federal bonds, and abol ition of National benks. Thejr accept the 15th amendment aa a finality. Atlanta, September 20— Senate. —T*'e action of the Senate to-day was disgraceful in the extreme. The Election bill wan read the second time yesterday. Pending a motion to refer it to the Judi ciary Committee, the Senate adjourned. Conley ruled that the Senate could do as it pleased, and declared the motions of Democrats out of order, though entertain ing Radical motions. The bill passed— yeas 19 ; nays 11. At one time, Burns, Candler, Hinton, Holcomb, Nunnally, and Welbom withdrew. The Conservative Republicans say the con duct of the Radicals was an outrage. The Election bill is considered by con servatives of all parties as destructive to the rights and liberties of the people, and will make them serfs. San Fbancisco, September 20.—The Oregon Legislature has elected Colonel J. K. Kelly, (Democrat), United States Sena tor, vice, Williams, (Radical) FOREIGN. New York, Sept. 17.—1 tis evident that the King of Prusgia hopes for assistance within the walls of Paris, thus carrying out an old military trick. Within the last few days a great many Uhlans have been captured, all of whom pretend to have lost their horses. Two were taken last Tuesday at a great distance 'from their corps. It is a curious fact that all these prisoners speak French perfectly. It is regarded as imprudent to keep the Prussian prisoners in the city when the fight begins. New York, Sept. 17. —The Times special from London says Minister Washburne ad vises Americans remaining in Paris during the seige to remain in their houses, but be sure and keep the American flag flying from the roofs or windows. Americans are consequently taking the siege coolly. The Economist has a very strong article in favor of peace. It says the very object of the war was to sustain the principle of German unity against the objects of France; that object is now attained, and all man kind should interfere to save Paris and then agree that hereafter no great city shall be fortified. London, Sept. 17. —1 tis said that Bis marck has asked an explanation frorr, the Belgium government for having allowed 12,000 French soldiers to cross her territory unchecked. The Prussians are slowly concentrating around Paris. The Times has the following mediation miscellany : Russia declines further effort. Bancroft denies invoking American in tervention. Prussia is satisfied with England’s re served attitude as defeating French hopes for armed intervention. Germany demands Alsace and Lorraine. Paris is declaired in a state of siege. Non-combatants are to be expelled. The King of Prussia rejects American mediation. Bancroft writes Washburne that he can only remain a spectator of thp confl ct. Washburne, communicating the above to Favre, adds that be can only record hi* protest to this impious war. France has over a million volunteers en rolled. Italian voluneers in great numbers ar rived at Lyons. Bismarck in reply to Jules Favre for an armistice, says fhere arc questions yet c be settled with France before a cuspensioti of hostilities is possible. Paris, Sept. 19.—The Swiss, American and Belgian ambassadors decline to quit Paris. Prussia distinctly recognizes n * French Government, neither Imperial or Repubii can. She is reluctant to make peace at pres ent Prussia explains that she will be fully prepared to treat for peace ouly when France presents a government sufficiently stable to inforce treaty. Gibn, Sept. 21.—Reports coming in that tb# Prussian investing Paris, were defeat ed on the plains of MeDdoo and Sevres, with heavy loss. Tours, Sept. 21.—The repulse of the Prussians at Orleans is confirmed. The iron clads for the defense of Paris have commeced operations. General Ripley, an American now in Paris, has teedered his services to the Com* mittee of Defense. Floating batteries have been constructed to defei and the entrances to French rivers. The French are marvelously active around Paris, throwing up earthworks. Russia is moving large bodies of troops into Poland. Advices from Strasbourg say that the cannon of the garrison is nearly quiet. The people have voted by a large major ity to continue the defence. Thß Government has decided to erect a complete system of barricades in Paris. Rochefort has charge of the army at Ly ons, and is incorporating African recruits. Organiztion is progressing rapidly. This army is intended to operate in the departments of the East. Detachments have already gone forward to Bisanoon and Vosges. The Prussians threaten death to those repairing railroads which the Prussians de stroy. London, September 20th.—Steinmetz has been relieved to leave Frederick Cbailes the sole eredit of reducing Metz. England received Thiers’ explanations favorably, and is prepared to act with Rus sia and Austria, if they also aooept Thiers’ proposition. The mail service from Paris is cut in all directions. Prussia is intensely disgusted with Eng land. especially in its publication of confi dential memoranda. Napoleon has formally revoked the de cree by wbiob Eugenie assumed the Regen - cy* ( . f A Washington letter says : “I have it on good authority that Belki ap, the new Sec retary of War, is an active member of the organization known as the G. A. R. This settles bis status, and puts at rest all specu lations as to his alleged Conservative ten-, deneies. The Chicago Times says- “Major Gener al” Hiram Walbridge, who ia likelv to suc ceed Fish, ‘‘is the flabbiest windbag and most arrant old humbug to bs found any where, and is altogether just the man for Grant** Secretary of State.” POLITICAL. The Democrats of the third Ohio district have thrown Vallandigham overboard, and nominated Hon. L. D. Campbell for Con*, gress. The lion, William 8. Gro&beck. one of President Johnson’s legal advisers during the Impeachment trial, positively declines to run for Congress. The latest Presidential ticket not is Ben Wade aud Farmer Greeley—and th--y are profanely styled the “swearing men’s can didates.” Boutwell is believed to be at the bottom of the raid on Grant. He is known to be at dagger’s point with Mrs. Grant, and doubt less is responsible for the prominence which is beiDg given her name in Wall street. Theodore Tiiton, baring been spoken of in connection with the Woman’s Rights candidacy for the office of Lieuienant Gov ernor of New York, declines in favor of Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton. It is gratifying to state, says the New York World, that Governor Scott, of South Carolina, is arming a negro militia, and that the President has assured Governor Bullock, of Georgia, that he will support him as freely as he did Governor Holden, of N>*rth Carolina. These things presage more Democratic victories. Democracy with the ballet box means ‘ let us have peace these fellows who are forever use ing the bayonet ouly say it. Morgan, the Mississippi State Senator who married a yellow girl named ilighgate, did not receive an ovation upon his arrival at Cleveland, from whence he hailed, and where there is a degree of ignorance about him altogether, that is Stygian in its durk uess. The Cleveland Herald remarks : There are none here who look upon such a marriage as a match that should command admiration, while it is so emphatically the groom’s own private affair as to preclude any demonstration of disgust. The people in the former slave States have yet to learn that miscegenation is regarded with much less favor in the old free States than in the Southern sections, where contact and inter course between whites aud blacks are more general. Tiie endorsement of a ‘free trade’ plank in the Republican State Convention at Springfield, on the Ist inst, is evidence that the good, old Democratic ‘lever’ is working. That the people can no longer be held in alliance to the protection partiality of the republican party. The leaders and thick sters of radicalism know very well that ‘free trade’ stands no chance whatever with the party at large, and that the endorsement by them of such a document in New Eng land or Pennsylvania, would be certain de feat, and that in their party caucuses at Washington, by their representations that Mr. Logan would not dare to whisper of a reduction of the tariff; yet in their State convention, in Illinois, they can afford to impose on the credulity of their party by the endorsement of so true a doctrine, and if we did not know, as every political stud ent knows, that that plank was adopted as buncombe to deceive the ‘free trade’ voters of Illinois. The adoption of that resolutii n places the party in a very unenviable posi ion; in a preceeding resolution they endorse the record of the party, that party, who en acted and have maintained by a strict party vote, the very tariff now so onerous to the people and they, in the following resolution condemning what they have previously en dorsed. Such action is worse than incoi •* sistency ; it is a doworigot insult to the good sense of the people.

Speaking with reference to the test oa ; h the New York Epress says: “There is nc longer any need of these oaths, even sup posing they ever were needed. The time has passed for taking them, and they are now galling, insulting and unnecessary, To say that the best talent of the State, the oldest and most respected people of the State, shall not be elected to Congress, Ji simply an infamous act on the part of the Radicals; bat this infamy need but follow ed by an act of folly on the part of the Demcrats.” The “act of folly” referred to is the one suggested by the proposition to elect ineligible parties to Congress, while there are plenty who are under no disabili ty, because of th«ir having been relieved by special acts of Congress.
