JEST'P, GEORGIA, MAY I*. !H77.
Wliilo in Savannah we accepted the
kind hokpitalitr,’ of our friend Carr, the
polite ond gentlemanly proprietor of
the Planter's Hotel. Our advise to all
visiting the city is to give him a call.
Vrtu tan get board at the O' mitral aam
*ftwo dollars per day.
We spent a couple of days in Savan
nah lust week and had the pleasure of a
short call at the Morning News office.
But was distppointed in not meeting
the proprietor, he being absent at a pic
nic. Hope you bad a pleasant time Mr.
Estill. Next wo called on Mr. Geo
N. Nichols who has sustained unite a
loss bv a recent fire. But the ener
getic Mr. N. was hard at work and all
nrouttd him busy. His foreman, Mr.
Thompson, politely showed os through
the printing department. Mr. N. has
some very lino presses and he doe* the
finest of job work. Mr. Thompson, who
has (tad a great deal of experience,
showed us some roller composition
which we should judge to 100 very
good. All in need of such will do well
to give him a call before ordering else
where.
Jin. Editor: —ln my communication
of tbo 9th instant I did not intend or
wisli to invite discussion. But as I be
lieve thouuands of dollars cm bo saved
annually to the poor tax-payers of
Georgia by a Constitutional Conven
tion, and that tbo opposition to it is
strong in some sections of our State
T thought then, ami believe now, that
we will have no child’s play in this
matter, especially after having nearly
■ half the life knocked out of the Conven
tion side of the question by the late
proclamation of the Governor, which re
sulted in the election of the Ist of May.
These are some of tbo reasons that
prompts!! my first communication and
not those arcribcd to mo by ‘'Wire
Grass.” He says lie objects to my prop
osition to run more candidates than
those regularly nominated. ‘‘Because, if
there is any way in the world to defeat
the coming election, it is by carrying
out “Pinoy Words’* preposition, to
demoralise the district, get a great ma
ny to the polls who will vote fur till oth
er reason but to satisfy tbo extremely
eager and aspiring candidates.” Now 1
do not supposothnt any ono could think
I intended or desired tbo demorolizi
tion of the district, And for the satis
faction of “YViro Grass,’ I will now
stuto that I only meant a fearful lethar
gy prevails among our people, and that
we need an awakening, and the quick
est and best way to get it is tor the
people in their own way to bring out
the'r candidates, good and true men,
and let them stand before the people on
their merits and the views they cutcr
tnin of the issuer - volved in the cam
paign. Then, and not until then, will
you got the full vote of tbo district,
which will lie necessnay in the coming
election. If “Wire (5 rass” supposes the
reforms and measures proposed in our
present constitution sufficient to arouse
the people, I will simply refer to the
election of tbo Ist of May, when out of
the seven or eight hundred voters in
Wayne, only ouo hundred and fifty
seven voted. Nor did 1 intend in any
manner to impeach the patriotism or
good intentions of the few who partici
pated in the primary meeting bold at
Jesup or elsewhere- I only said m sub
stsneo them, and say now, that •fifteen
men (among whom l can claim the bon
er of being one) can hardly bo prepar
ed to act satisfactorily for one bundled
ami fifty, unless the power to do so had
been delegated, which no one can clam
had been done in Ibis ea.-e. But [ pass
on and will make a few statements to
quiet tbo apprehensions of “Wire
Grass” in regard to myself. Now mind
keep cool and don't get very ‘ badly ex
cited,’' “Piney Woods,” did not expect
or ask anything nt the hands of the
Convention, nor do ! believe any true
man could scarcely desire to assume
the responsibility that delegate involves
by any eflorte of his owe. There are
,nioro than one good and true man in
the district that a respectable number
of voters would like to have as eaudi
►dates, and if they could be brought out

Many causes tend to produce Ihix

to produce, congestion of the bowels, tor

other causes ace, the. source of this com

not only benefit, but have Iren radically
cured, have been assured ( prior to using
this treatment) by eminent surgeons that
the, only relief they ever could expect in
life, would be by an operation, and re
moving it or them from the body by a

goods only as yn.l have a notion of purchasing. R- m ., m hor als-q samples only
give an idea of what the goods are, but do not give the article full justice.
2. Do not have any hesitancy in ordering the good* von want, for we guaran
tee every article to come up to .ample, and if un-a'isfactory, it can b relumed
io n* at our expense, and xee will refund the money.
