MASS MEETING AND SPEAKING!
Col. W. J. Lawton, candidate for Con

the Senate ; and John I. Hall. E°q., candi
date for the House of Representatives, will
address the people of Upson at the Court
House in Thomaston. on the first Tuesday
in December. Come one, come all—both
white and black.
Nones.—We tak* this occasion, being
folly authorised to do so. to say that the
report now in circulation to the effect, that
Oapt. John I. Hall is tinctured with Radi
calism, is an infamous falsehood.
Ter Democratic Committee at Washing
ton, claim that they will have in tbe next
House 108 members, and that they only re
c?nire a few revenue reformers to secure the
erganizatian of the House.
Letting Thru Loose to Give Thanks
Bollock promulgates an order, discharging
nineteen convicts sentenced to the peniten
tiary for life for the crime of burglary in
tho night time, giving the reason that since
their trial, the Legislature, by act of Octo
ber 5, 1808, modified the punishment for
burglary in the night time, and that, he
oonsidered the majesty of the law vindicat
ed. The pardon took effect on the 24th
iast.
Okb nr onb.— Ex-Mayor George Cahoon
cf P*ichmon, one of the pet tools of the Re*
constructionists in Virginia, who attempted
some time since to hold on to his office of
Mayor, which he received by appointment
from Gen. Schofield, aPer his successor had
been chosen and qualified, lias come to grief,
and been sentenced to the State Prison for
four years for uttering a forgery. If all
the Radical tools oppression in the South
could have their deserts meted out to them
in this way, there would be a very general
demand in that section for the increase of
prison accommodations.— Ex change.
More Votes than Voters. —At the re
cent election in South Carolina, there were
tvo hundred and fifty more votes east in
Union county than there were voters, ac
cording to the tax books and the census.
At a prec'met in Chesterfield connty, there
were only two hundred and fifteen names
on the poll list ;~bot when the votes were
counted there were three hundred and
seventy-nine ballots iD the box. It wculd
seem from this that the Democratic city of
New York is not the only place in the coun
try where federal laws are needed to pre
vent repeating.— Exchange.
The New Party.— From the Sun we
learn that tbe World's Washington corres
pondent telegraphs that the proposed n«w
party of revenue reformers, foreshadowed
by the Chicago Tribnno in its issue of Sat
urday last, creates quite a little commotion
in Washington. Colonel Forney yields the
whole question, and admits that there is a
new party, and declares that the Chicago
Tribune has deserted the Republican party,
and states what the Tribune does not allege
even, that Senator T'Utnbnll is to lead the
new coalition and become its candidate for
President. During the late canvass he
mado a speech at Springfield, which was
strongly in favor of a revenue reform. It
will be rememhered that at the last session
of Congress he introduced the civil service
bill, making it a misdemeanor for members
of Congress to solicit offices or sign a recom
mendation tor office in any executive
department of tfee Government. He is
anderstood to favor the civil service reform
as advocated hy ei~Secretary Cox and
ethers. The impression is, that in his
speech at Springfiield, Senator Trumbull
foreshadowed the policy which has now
been adopted by his organ, the Tribune.
It is evident, says Forney, from the tone c.f
the Tribune article, that it has abandoned
all hopes of the party being able to elect its
candidate is 1872. Senator Trumbull ia in
Washington, aud while he does not admit
tb&t he is a candidate for Presidbnt of the
revenue reform party, or any other party,
he at the same time warmly endorses the
cause of the civil service reformers, as well
as that of the revenue reformers. He is
pledged to both, and will advocate both in
hie place in the Senate.
Senator Schurx says that the revenue
reform movement will sweep the West; that
nobody and no administration can etand up
sgaicFt it. Hi arrived hereto- day.
Griffin, Ga., Nov. 23, 1870.
Editor J/era 14: It is iep»rted in certain
(,«>n l.l on of tnc county ol Upson, that I bad
declined the race for the Legislature. I
desire to say through your paper, to tbe
people of Upson, that the report is untrue.
Up to this time I have took but little inter
est in tbe canvass, hoping, by that course,
to quiet and reconcile the then seeming
dissatisfaction with Iceßiftin persons. My
course has failpd to hoc'mplish
this object, and is no other
course left for ine but to make a “square
out," detarminedttfchf This I inter.d to
do, and so soon- home (m an u s
9 -• *
ten days) I shall canvas* in g<>oil
earnest. My purpose i$ to canv **'? e
county thoroughly, and the people,
white and at three or.more places.
I shall duty, and if defeat must
come, I intend to place the responsibility
where it sO "justly the hollers
awl dissenters 11 p r < ’•* nod
regret Dissen
tion and dissatisfaction is not confined alone
to Upson, but we hear of it in almost every
county. A mania for office has seized upon
the people, and they loose sight of the fact
that a united party is necessary to insure
success. These bolters and dissenters
should he marked and remembered, aye,
they will be, and not only in this contest,
but in all time to come. But I believe
when tbe people are thoroughly aroused to
the importance of the appro aching election,
they will frown down these few men in each
county who are willing to ruin when they
fail to rule. Just such a disposition brok* up
the old De uocratic partv in 1860, and in
augurated the late disastrous war, and if
not now checked in time, it will break up
tbe present organizat on and continue in
power the present parry of plunderers. All
that we are interested in is an honest ami
economical administration of both the
Federal and State governments.
Let us Dot then by divis on loose the
present opportunity to correct the evils that
exist, but uuite “upon that line" and invite
all—both white and black—who are in
favor of reform, to join us.
Respectfully, Ac.,
John l. llall.
SrocESTivE Points. —The Baltimore Gaz
rite says that an analysis of the votes of
the States in which elections have recent
ly been held, and a fair and impartial
estimate of tbe political compaction of the
five Stares which are vet to return members
to the Forty-second Congress, present some
very suggestive points.
First. The amen Jed returns show that
the Republican majority in the Forty-sec
ond Congress, including both wings of the
party, will not, in any event, exceed thirty
one, and may possibly, in the elections yet.
to come off, be reduced still more. The
same returns show further that the Rad
ical wing is, numerically, much weaker
than the Liberal wing and the Democrats
combined, and as the control of tbe im
portant questions now before the country
will necessarily pass iuto the hands of the
strongest section of tbe House, the Radicals
will not now be able, as heretofore, to dic
tate those measures of legislation by which
they hoped to perpetuate their power.
In respect to the Tariff question, the
strength of the combined opposition to a
high protective tariff indicates a most re
markable change. In the Forty-second
Congress, the Democrats, all of whom are
pledged to a reform of tbe revenue, will
number one hundred and six—whilst the
Liberal Republicans, who are quite as
stoutly opposed to the high protective
tariff, count up twenty-five, making in the
aggregate one hundred and thirty-five rev
enue reformer* against, one hundred and
eight Radical protectionists—thus giving
to the revenue reformers a clear majority
in the House twenty-seven votes, and the
ability, at the very opening of the session,
if they have the wisdom to use it, to elect
the Speaker and control the organization
of the House.
Turning next to the question of the prob
able electoral vote in the Presidential elect
ion of 1872, and assuming that in the new
apportionment of members of the House
of Representatives the increase in electoral j
vote of the Northwestern States will be
equalised by a corresponding increase in
in the electoral vote of the Southern States,
there seems to be every reason to believe
that the Democrats will have ns th e Herald
table it dieates, a clear majority in the
Electoral College, or a majority of six. if
we throw out the six votes of Conncctict,
which may be classed doubtful, and trans
fer the Feven votes of New Jersey to the
Democratic column, where they properly
belong, notwithstanding the- loss of the
State at the recent electiou by local quar*
rels.

The Way the Keuko Voters f Missou
ri iSuowkn iukiß Guatitude —1 ney fell a
bad st ry on the m gro voters of Missouri.
The two candidates for Governor were
Gratz Brown ami McCiung Brown wa<
one of the earliest aod sturdiest advocates
for negro emancipation in that State, and
probably wrote and published the first ed
itorials ’favoring that ever appeared in a
newspaper of the State. He was bold, out
spoken and c n-ietent in his hatred of
slavery, and his desire to ►ee it abolished,
and in consequence might be said to have
carried his life in his hand b»r many years
previous to the war. His opponent,
MeCiurg. on the other hand, was a slave
holder and a bitter hater and denouncer of
Brown and the rest of tbe abolitionists, and
who'll the proposition to give the negroes
suffrage in Missouri by f>tate action was
made, fought it with all his might, and with
his parry friends finally defeated it. Browr,
on the other hand, favored it as he bad
always favored every move made in the
interests of the bl cks
Now bow did the negroes requite the
Ferric '* of these two men? By voting
almost en masseJor the pro slavery MeCiurg
the persistent* pponent of their enfranchise
ment until tbe Fifteenth Amendment made
such opposition useless, and against Brown,

polities since his youth Lnt negro emanci
pation and elevation 1 They were ruled
with a rod of iron by one J Milton Turner,
u prominent regro politician, who was in
tbe interest ( f the MeCiurg faction, and
voted pretty much as he told them —just as
thev do in some other localities, we could
mention. This is an ugly story, but it is
true to the letter, and some of the earliest
and staunchest friends of tbe negro in
Missouri are immensely disgusted that it is
tiue.— Telegraph and Mesenger.
Mr Hendricks and the [’residency
We publish to-day an article from the Chi
cago Republican, which is highly compli
mentary to lion. Thomas A. Hendricks as
a prospective candidate for the Presidency.
We endorse all that is said in favor of Mr.
Hendricks, but we do not desire to be con
sidered as inimical to George il. Pendleton;
He is a great man, a good man, a true man
and one of the best ol Democrats. Between
him and Mr. Hendricks the kindest rein
tons exist. His letter, referred to in tbe
Republican’s article, in favor of Governor
Seymour, may have been uufortunate for
himself, but it was the endorsement of an
eminent statesman, a Christain and a
scholar. When the letter wa- written it
was not generaly considered that Mr.
Hendricks would be brought forward as a
candidate before the New Y'-rk convention.
Os course Mr: Pe. dleton had no thought of
making personal opposition to our favorite
statesman of Indiana, by endorsing Govern
or Seymour. The facts prec.ude such an
id**a. Besides, the pers.mal friendship of
Goveruor Seymont, Mr. Hendricks and Mr
Pendleton is well known, and proudly
recogniz and by tbe particular friends of each
gentleman.
We think the Republican is right in its
intimation that Mr. Pendleton’s name will
not I e presented to the n» xt N: tim a! Dem
ocratic Cunvebtion as a candidate tor the
Presidency. He does not desire such a
prominence at the present time. Whether
the name of Judge Thurman will be pre
sented we cannot sav, but a statement to
that effect is. to say tbe least, prob'ematica l .
But that Mr. Hendricks will tie p;e emed
for the nomination i- quire certain, at and the
eminent favor whim the nde
pendmt press gives the highest as. unmeet
that could be desired of his great populari
ty. His eminent ti ness is unquestioned

Politics in the Future B Gratz
Brown, the anti.-Administration candidate
for Governor in Missouri, gets 35.0<K)t0 40,
000 majority This is a political earth
quake. The now-defeated MeCiurg receiv
ed a majority of 19 327 o »ly two years ago.
The New York Journal of Commerce says:
“Such is the lesson taught to the men at
Washington who seek to coerce freemen
into tbe narrow traces of a sealless partis
anship. Let men look to Missouri if they
would learn how the political revolution of
the future i*» to he brought. It, is to be by
tbe coalition *>-f fair, moderate men, of ail
parties, on vital public questions like those
of amnesty, revenue reform, and juster tar
iff-. Old party bonds must be snapped and
trampled in the dust. The terms ‘Repub
iie.iri’ and ‘Democrat’ must be stripped of
their ancient mythical meaning. Under
either of these party names, or neither, the
men ol the republic must be willing to join
hands and work together for the public
good.

of the result of the recent elections, given
by the New York Herald, foresbawdows the

erald. which at ihe same time expresses
its preference for Grant, says: ‘'Without

GENERAL PRESENTMENTS OF THE
GRAND JURY" OF THE FIRrT WEEK OF THE
svi'Ekiok Court up.*on county—Novem
ber TERM. 187’J.
We the Giand Jury chosen, selected and
sworn for the first week November Term,
1870, beg leave to make the following
General Presentments :
We have examined the public buildings
of the county. We find the Court House
in very good condition. The Jail is yet
unfinished and not sate, and no guarantee
of keeping prisoners. We respectfully re
commend that the Ordinary have the same
finished according to contract and have the
entire walls above and below and over
head in the upper story, filled with twenty
penny nails half an inch apart.
Some of the roads we find in good condi
tion, other roads we find in bad order. The
old State roud between Tin na&jwon via the
Hightower Mill, and the Monroe }y»e, and
a part of the road leading to Barnesville
and part of the road between Mrs. Charles
Greene’s and Garside’s Mill, also the road
known as the “Blind Jack” leading from
Tomlin** Shop to Hickory Grove, and the
road between Julius C. Williams’ and Dr.
Herring’s Mill, are all in bad order, and
abould be put in good condition at enee.
The bridge# are »J 1 m good order except
at Cunningham’* Mill and tffc nrre
H ii.d Jtick road, and we w*>uld
the uuth trine* that the fame
good order.
We also recommend that the
hare a bridge limit over the creek near
Denham’s Ferry.
Having examined the County Treasury,
have the pleasure of informing the citixenß
of the county that there is a sufficiency of
funds on hand to meet all necessary drafts
that may be mode upon it.
When the Tax Collector completes his
settlement with the Treasurer there will be
a large surplus on hand.
We recommend to the Ordinary that one
thousand dollars (sl,oo'} of Connty B >od*
be issued immediately for the accommoda
tion of the public.
In taking leave of his Honor, Judge
Greene, and the Solicitor General Ander
son, we can but return them the thanks of
our body for promptness and ability with
which they have disrhurged their respec
tive duties to our body and the citizens
generally. We hope they will permit us to
express the wish for their future happiness
i •
and prosperity.
All of which is respectfully submitted
with the request that the same be entered
on the minutes of the Court and be pub

(.ENERAL presentments of the
GKA.ND JURT SSC»ND W ERK OF FP ON BU
peri r court November term. 187:
We the Grand Jur-ra f-eiee ed, chosen
and sworn for the second week of the
November Term of Upson Superior Court
for 1870, in closing our labors beg leave to
make the following General Presentments :
The Grand Jury of the preceding week
having examined the public bu Iding ,
bridge*, road*, and public r» cords, and
made report of the same has left us hot
little of such duties to perform.
Fr ra some of our body we, however,
learn that the road from Herring's Mill to
the Pike line and known as the ‘ Old Ala
bama Road” is in bad condition. It is also
reported that the road leading from Puri
f >y’s to Jas. Lyon's has a ditch cut across
it by some » rivate party or parties who re
fuse to keep up the bridge over said ditch,
and the samo not h ive pg been rep >rted by
tin* Grand Jury of the preceding week we
earnestly appeal to the Road Commission
ers to see that the said sections of the
public road be immediately put in complete
order.
The bridge over the creek at the High
tower old mill is said to be in a delapidated
condition and needing immediate repairs.
We, therefore, call the attention of the Or
dinary to the condition of said bridge.
A hr dge over the creek at McCord’s old
mill which had been taken by I). R Beall
under contract lor a term of years, was
washed away by a freshet and with it the
embankment, to a considerable distance.
Upon replacing the same as per contract it
was found necessary to add twenty-seven
feet to reach the bank ands r which he has
received no compensation. Mr. Beall has
been before us. and other witnesses have
also testified that said bridge one hundred
and forty-two feet in length originally, with
the addition of twenty-seven feet to reach
the bank has been rebuilt and is now a
good, substantial structure. We, therefore,
recommend the Ordinary to pay to Mr.
Beall, out of the Country Treasury, the
sum of one hundred and twenty-three dol
lars and fifty-eight cents, it being the pro
portion due L). R Beall for the additional
twenty-seven feet over and above his orig
inal contract; and that th*“ said additional
twenty-seven feet be incorporated in the
guarantee as originally entered into.
From the numerous recent outbreaks of
lawless men and the frequent indignities
offered to his II »aor, Judge Greene, the
presiding officer of this Court, we feel that
it becomes our doty to give some expression
to our feelings upon this occasion. The
dignities and authority of our courts must
be upheld and maintained, or the ends of
justios canaot be attained, nor the peace
and good order of society long preserved.
Every civil tribunal is entitled to proper
respect however humble may be its charac
ter. It is an arm of the civil service of the
country —a prop in other words to support
the structure of our liberties, ou r happiness
aid our prosperity, “Obey y-ur Rulers”
is a scriptural injunction, and is no less
binding upi-n us than upon those to whom
it was given It was enjoined by a short
and conclusive argument against private
