Twenty-one Ku Ivlux prisoners

A large delegation, composed
of Democrats and Eepublicans, has
gone to Washington for the pur
pose of urging Senator Trumbull to
allow his name to be used as a can
didate for President against Grant.
Mr, Trumbull has emphatically re
fused to commit himself to this
project.
Severe Snow Storms. —The
North and West has been visited
by severe snow Storm. A dispatch
from Omaha says that twenty cars
are piled in ruins from encountering
a drift of snow near the town of
Sherman. Other trains are report
ed off the track. The road is par.
blocked up for the present.
Governor. Hoffman’s Position
Defined. —A New Yoik dispatch
says: The published rumor that
Governor Hoffman is ready to act
with Schurz, Greely, Trumbull and
Sumner in President making, is de
nied by the Express. Hoffman, it
says, broke with Tammany at the
time of the July riots. He has
the purpose of putting the Demo
cralic party upon the high-toned
ground of personal purity and pub
lic improvement. To this end, but
no further, is he willing to make
alliance with others.
A Sad Cane of Inhumanity.
—A. P. Newkirk, was frozen to
death in the cell of thg Jefferson
Market prison, in New York, on
Monday night last, lie was tho
agent of Van Amburgh’e Menagerie,
lie was formerly a law partner with
Judge Jeremiah M. Wilson, of In
diana, and for two years was Speak,
er of the Indiana Legislature. New
kirk- was arrested on complaint of
a notorious bummer, who charged
him with robbing him of twenty
five cents and a coat and vest. lie
was thrown into prison while in a
state of intoxication and frozen to
death in his cell Ilis relations have
sent for tho body. The greatest
indignation is expressed at his treat
ment, and his accuser is openly
charged with an attempt at black
mailing.
Prevent It.—Conley’s contem
plated plea to Grant is about this:
“Don’t you see there was only one
candidate in ilic field, and he was a
rebel; and don’t you see that com
paratively very few people voted
for him? and is not this sufficient
evidence of the fact that the peo
pie want me to continue to act as
Governor ?
Fellow citizens, you can kill the
farce of this logic by voting, and
by seeing to it that all your neigh
bors vote.
If vott love Radicalism, or sym
pathize with Bullock, and his thiev
ing elan, and want to assist them in
covering up their enormous steal
ages > just stay at home—don’t vote
—and you will accomplish this ob
ject.
If you want to place our affairs
in the. hands of honesf men, save
the State from bankruptcy, and
yourselves, au«l children after you,
from grinding,burdensome taxation,
come out and vote for J. MILTON
SMITH.
A “New Departure” on the
Railroad Question. —The Savau
nah News’ special from Washington
of the 11th, has the following about
the B. & A. Railroad, which, is not
lacking in plausibility:
“The Louisville and Nashville
Railroad Company have under con
sideration the proposition to lease
the Montgomery & Eufanla Railroad,
to and finish the Eufanla and Bruns
wick Railroad, with a view to se
cure an unbroken line from Louis
ville to Savannah.
“Prominent officers of the Louis
villc Road now here, say that if the
above programme can ho carried
out, it will result in the slupment
direct to Savannah of immcneequal
ities of produce from the Western
and Sliddle States lor Wist Indian
and European markets, which can
be done at a much cheaper rate than
by any other route, in consequence
of the Louisville Road controlling
the entire line and running cars
through from Louisville to Savan
jiah.
Desperate Courage Os the
Cast Radical.
Messrs Saw+ell & Christian :
** Mo sc it nr rj. eociis ” is a maxim
as hoary with age as it is preg
nant with truth. It lias been often
remarked of Benjamin Conley, who
now becomes conspicuous by reason
of having been elected in July,
1868, President of the Georgia Sen
ate, and still holding that, office at
the time Bullock resigned, was, un
der the Constitution, required to
exercise the Executive powers of
the State temporarily—that, altho’
a wool died .Radical—and hence,
full of hatred to the Democracy,
and to all the sentiments of the
Southern people—still, in business
transactions, has ever been regard
ed as an honest man ; and as such,
entitled to the respect of decent
people. And while I have never
been able cleat ly to understand how
a native Southerner, or a Northern
born man, who, of choice, spent his
whole life in the South, dealt with
our people and prospered by their
intercourse and confidence and
who voluntarily remained here dur
ing the war—can have turned red
hot Radical and entered heartily in
to (and aco-workerer in) the enormi
ties of the Southern Republican par
ty ; and, at the same time, be an
honest man. Still I preferred to
err on the side of liberality and
charity towards even this most ha
ted class of men. Therefore, I was
inclined to accept the general idea
that this man, and others of like
course, were not at least corrupt or
dishonest. But he is now furnish
ing proof to the public that those
whose opinions have been so lenient
hare been misguided ; and that in
his political career, and not in his bus
iness course, was to be found the
true index to his character
He adheres to the cause of the
fugitive Governor, pursues the
course marked out to screen him
and suppress knowledge of his as
sociates in guilt, when it is appa
rent to all good people that every
thing should be uncovered. lie
has been intimately associated with
him in politics, was with him in the
midnight leagues, when both were
obscure but ambitious aspirants for
place—went with him through *the
plottings and machinations which
sent both to represent the Augusta
District in the State Convention,
and where both asssisted in making
the Constitution which Bullock has
fled front, anil Conley tramples inl-
der foot. They came into the State
administration together, and were
on confidential terms during the
whole time Bullock and his co-ad
jutors were concocting and perpe
trating the gross derelictions that
rendered precipitous flight the only
measure of personal safety. lie ro
cieved at the hands of Bullock, by
secret consent, and clandestinely,
the Executive Books and Records,
when he and Bullock, and all their
legal advisers, knew his Presidency
of the Senate would expire within
three days. lie now holds in his
hands Concealed, the evidences of
thefts, peculations, and breaches of
trust, on the most extended and
appalling scale known, even in the
annals of Radical villainy.
These alone, are enough to im
peach the integrity of Conley’s pur
poses in the estimation of any good
man, white or black, who lias intel
ligencc to discern between the most
common honesty and the mostglar
ing theft.
That lie should attempt to usurp
Executive power—the highest agen
cy of the sovereignty trf the State—
and hold it b\ force, in order to car
ry out liis foul conspiracy with Bul
lock— in order to conceal crime and
obstruct legal penalties, when he
knows the entire people over whom
lie lords it, demand investigation
and retributive justice —when lie
knows the Executive office thus sur
reptitiously turned over to him, has
for three years and more been gross
ly prostituted to private gain, and
made not only the guilty aider and
abetter, hut the actual perpetrator
of wholesale tlielt and embezzle
ment, to the irreperable damage of
the people over whom he usurps
power—is evidence most conclusive
of an abandoned heart and malig
nant purpose, either to shield Bul
lock, the fullon,aud others —perhaps
himself—to embroil the State in
the falsely excited and misguided
ire and i-esentinont of the Federal
government, or to vex and annoy a
people by the exercise of unwar
ranted power in an insulting man
ner, to whom his presence, to say
nothing of his official pretensions,
are loathsome in the extreme, which
at once siuks him below public con
tempt. For if it is his purpose to
make himself a tool for Bullock,
and coveiing to hide the guilt of
him and his accomplices; he is a
meaner pump than Bullock is a
rogue. And whether we view' him
as usurper, stirrer up of strife and
disturber of peace between the
State and the United States, or
rogue’s pimp—all self imposed titles
—to dignity among those seeking to
excel in crime, we cannot imagine
even a Radical negro who lias sunk
so low in his own estimation us not
to look down with pity on the de
| pravity of this wretch.
If he is not entirely bereft of the
j characteristics of our manhood, if
j there be one trace left of the traits
j of our humanity which brings him
hack within the pale outlines of re
spect, it is his courage and despera
tion in guilt. Even this is the snap
ping courage of the cur surround
ed by the assailing pack, or rather
the courage of the last captured wild
1 og.
Those who ever caught wild hogs
in. pens, where several were group
ed together, will remember this pe
culiarity it that animal which well
illustrtrates Conley’s exhibited conr.
age. As loci'.as all the hogs are on
foot their resolution to resist as
saults, and to assail their captors
knows no botiuds, and he who en
ters the pen does so at lijs peril.—
j But whenever one hog fails in the
fray you may enter with safety,
and slay or tie with impunity until
you come to the last. And then
you are again put on the defensive.
For the. last one will fight alone
with all the courage of his species,
as if surrounded and aided by
a thousand of his comrades.
Such has been the career of the
Georgia Radical Ring of thieve* in
high places. While they stood and
locked shields, and flourished the
ensigns of their power, aud flared
in the faces of the people the keen
weapon# of their defense and as
sault, many unsuspecting were mis
led, ami even some virtuous may
have been tempted to make com
mon cause with them, and to profit
by their peculations. There was a
strength about them that made
them invicible even to those who
believed their purposes bad and
that they would ultimately come to
grief. But at last one of the lead
ers fell, and thenceforward all the
pack were harnessed, and in turn
submitted tamely to the authority
of an enraged people, until it came
to Conley, the last hog in the pen.
Forthwith his bristles began to rise,
anil Iris rugged teeth to show them
selves whetted keen and covered
with the froth and foam of his rage,
for the fray with the honest people
of the State.
He is hopeless in hisown strength.
For he is not only not fortified by
the constitution, and statutes, but
every one of their provisions is a
barbed-arrow that flies with light
ning speed from the archives of
our history and the volumes of our
law, into the vitals of the usurper.
He has no moral strength, for he
defies public morals, and all his pur
poses are base anil villainous. lie
has no plea of patriotism that jus
tifies the overruling popular will for
the public weal, for his mission is
against the State, her peace, diguity,
her honor, and her purse. He has
no pretext that party drill demands
it at his hands, for the good men of
his own party here and abroad con
demn his judgment, and despise the
mean pretensions to greatness, as
well as his claim to official power
snatched from a flying thief.
Ills hope, his only hope, is that
the Government of the United
States, by reason of falsely excited
ire and misguided inalace will be
come meaner than he would have
the government of Geoigia in his
hands to be. For in order to come
to his relief that goverment, must
imbue its bands in the hiding of
crime and guilt in a matter where it
has contracted none, aud has no
interest in the concealment, and
where there is no reward, for the
villains who ask its aid have eloped
with the spoils. It is the courage
of the last wild hog in sublime illus
tration, which sustains Conley in his
dyiug struggle against the public
virtue of the State But it will ig
nominiouply fail, and great will be
his fall.
The governor chosen by the peo-1
pie will be regularly installed, and 1
in concert with their chosen Lcgis- j
lators will hot only uncover the j
crimes of their predecessors, but,
guide the ship of State by the con- j
stitulion and laws. The reign
of honesty is to be restored, and
the sound of its coming is like the
maliffluous notes of sweet music as
they float on the zephyrs at tw’ilight.
Cheer up countrymen, there is a
good day coming—crowd to the
polls on the 19th, and let us give a
rousing vote to manifest our confi
dence in a desire for our coming
executive. Randolph.
The Democratic Conven
tion— Colonel Smith’s
Speech.
The following resolutions, offered
by P. W. Alexander, were unani
mously adopted:
Whereas, power should ever be
used wisely and justly for the bene
fit of those who confer it; and
whereas there is a prospect for the
first time in some years of placing
the administration of the affairs of
our State in the hands of her own
sons; and whereas it is not deemed
necessary at this time, to go into a
particular enumeration of our views
and principles in regard to general
politics : therefore,
Resolved, That we congratulate
the people of Georgia upon the
prospect of securing an honest and
faithful administration of their
State Government, and we declare
it to be the universal desire of those
whom we represent to secure good
government, to live in peace, to pass
wise and wholesome laws, and to
have the same administered in a
spirit of “ wisdom, justice and mod
eration.”
Resolved, That it is our fixed pur
pose to put down corruption in all
departments of the State govern
ment, to clear the temple of justice
of the money changers, to practice
economy iu the expenditure of the
public money, to elevate and pre
serve the public faith and credit, to
encourage education, to develop the
resources of the commonwealth, and
to bring hack all branches of the
government, Executive, Legislative
and Judicial, to the ancient land
marks of the fathers.
Resolved, That as a Democratic
convention of the people of Georgia,
we avail ourselves of the occasion
to renew our adhesion to the great
Democratic party of the Union,
and to assure all men that it
is our desire and purpose, as far
as in ns lies, to preserve public
order, to bring to condign punish
ment all disturbers of the peace, as
well as all unfaithful public servants,
and to deal justly and kindly with
all classes of the people.
On motion of Mr. Hudson, of
Schley, the thanks of the Conven
tion were tendered to Hon. Julian
Ilartridge for the able and efficient
manner in which lie presided over
the deliberations ot the body.
Mr. Lamar offered a resolution
that the Chair appoint at his leisure
a committee of two from each Con
gressional District and four from
the State at large, as an Executive
Committee. Adopted.
On motion, Hon. Julian Hartridge
was made Chairman of the Execu
tive Committee.
Hon. Herbert Fielder being call
ed for, responded in 3 speech ru
plete with sound thought. He paid
a handsome compliment to the nom
inee, and to the others who had
been named for the nomination.
Colonel Carey \V. Styles and the
Committee came in with the nomi
nee, Hon. James M. Smith.
Mr. Smith responded in a speech,
which appears below, reported pho.
nograpbically for The Constitution;
SPEECH OF HON. J. M. SMITH:
Mr President, and Gentlemen of
the Convention :
It will hardly be expected up
on this occasion, that 1 shall say
much more Ilian to return my
thanks for the honor you have con
ferred upon me. If, at the ap
proaching elution, the people of
ihe State of Georgia shall see fit to
ratify 3 onr action of to-day, I shall
eater upon the duties of the high
trust which will be imposed upon
me, with a profound distrust of my
own ability for the full and faithful
discharge of the same. But, fellow
citizens, 1 trust I shall not be charg
ed with egotism when I say that
however limited I may consider my
own capacity, I have abiding faith
in the omnipotence of honest)-.
[Applause.] That is what w*e need
today more than anything else.
[Applause]
Wbat is the condition of our
State ? In the remarks that I make
I shall confine myself to the affairs
of the State of Georgia alone, and
I shall be very brief. There is a
work for ever)- Georgia.! to do, and
there is an object for the exercise
of the greatest patriotism. What
have we to do? We all know that
the financial affairs of ihe Slate are
in inextricable confusion. We do
not know bow many bonds have
been issued. We do not know
what the legal indebtedness of the
State is. We do not know how
these bonds were put out, but we
have a suspicion as to the one w ho
put them out, and that is about all.
It will be expccled that the person
who shall be selected to fill the po
sition of Governor, for the next
twelve months at leasi, shall so ad
minister the government of the
State of Georgians that the piople
shall know r what their honest debts
are, and wbat is expected of them.
[Applause.] lie will need honesty
more than brains. [Applause] It
will be difficult to get at the frauds
that have been practiced upon us.
It will require a firm will and an
honest heart to get at anil expose
them ; but, gentlemen of the Con
vention, permit mo to say that, as
God is my Judge to-day, if I have
the honor to be selected by the peo
ple of Georgia to fill the position of
Governor, I shall endeavor to get at
the bottom of these things. I shall
at least give a very large portion of
tny attention to the task of determ
ining how much we really owe, and
liow much is claimed of us.
| Ji is of paramount importance
! <hat popular confidence should be
restored in the administration of
public affairs in this State. Unfor
tunately, since the war, or within
the last three or four years, we
have been placed in a condition
where the people, by reason of the
many impositions and the many
frauds which have been practiced
upon them, have lost confidence in
those who have been selected to fill
the prominent positions under our
State government. How long has
it been since it was considered that
the name of the Governor of Geor
gia was hardly a synonym for hon
esty ? I do not make these remarks
in an}’ improper spirit, hut for the
purpose of calling your attention
to the fact tl at I feel in its full
measure the gveat responsibility
that will devolve upon me in case
the people shall ratify your nomina
tion.
It is desirable that the people
should have confidence in their Gov
ernor. In the event that I shall
be chosen to fill that position, it
shall he my object to protect the
people, so far as may he in my pow
er, not only in their rights ot per
son and property, but in their pub
lic rights as well. [Applause.] And
permit me to say further, that in
the discharge ot the duties of that
high office, I shall, if elected, ob
serve no dislinction except the dis
tinction between rogues and honest
men. [Applause.]
But let me pause to say that the
names of other gentlemen have been
brought to your attention to day in
this connection —gentlemen of char
acter, intelligence and great worth,
(Messrs. Wofford, Fielder and Nich
olas.) With the name of one of
these gentlemen I have been long
familiar, (Gen. Wofford.) I saw
him in Virginia. He was doing his
duty there. [Applause ] His at
tention was not particularly’ direct
ed to me, because he was a grade
above me--aud be ought to have
been a grade above me. [Applause ]
I saw him in the midst of smoke,
and fire and bullets, and he was do
ing his duty then. [Applause.]
And when, on the present occasion
in this Convention, where his name
was prominently mentioned in con
nection with the office for which
you have selected me, his friends
the men who know him, the men
who love him, and who are capable
of appreciating his high character
have waived the urging of his name
before this body, and themselves
have become the nominators of my
self, how could I feel otherwise than
grateful? I strike hands with
those men and with their friends. I
am sure my honored friend, Gen.
Wofford, will unite with me in do
ing everything that can he done to
promote the welfare of the State, to
secure protection to her citizens and
to place the old Commonwealth in
the same high position she formerly
occupied when men were selected
to positions of influence because
they were honest men, alid were
not chosen because they’ were
rogues. I tell these gentlemen I
want to strike hands with then, and
march forward to the emancipation
of our State from the impositions,
from the frauds, and from the vil
lainies which have, been practiced
upon her. Aud if the distinguished
gentleman will dolus duty now, as
he has done his duty on other are
nas-and I know lie will - success
will crow r n our efforts.
A gentleman remarked as I enter
ed the hall, chat your nominee was
a native Georgian. So. I am. I
know that since the days of recon
struction it has been considered pot
altogether honorable for a mail to
havo been born in the South. But
I must plead guilty to the chaise.
I am native and t<rthe manor-b&rn.-
I 1,/ok upon Georgia as my mother.
She is my mother. I expect to re
pose in her bosom at last, and my
prayer is that I may so conduct
myself that I may not be censured
by the friends who have this day,
in so marked a degree, manifested
their confidence in me, that I may
so conduct myself as that no man
who has spoken my name favorably
to-day, will ever have occasion to
regret that be joined in the nomina
tiou of James M. Smith. [Ap
plause.] And that when I shall
have ruu iny career, and when my
good old mother shall have taken
me to her bosom, I shall go to my
grave amid the tears and blessings
of those whom I have .helped to
emancipate from the distress, the
suffering and villainy which have
been brought upon them. [Great
applause.]
Loud calls were made for Gen.
Wofford, but he had previously left
the hall.
Resolutions of thanks to the va
rious railroad companies in the
State, and to the Secretaries of the
Convention, were adopted, when
the Convention adjourned subject
to the call of the Executive Com
mittee.
Remember the election next Tues
day, the 19th; be sure and vote for
Smith.

Annouiic©m.en.t t
A little* less than one year ago, when this grand enterprise was organ
ized in Atlanta Georgia, many sagacious people predicted failure in its
infancy ; but the imprecedent success crowning it everywhere it has been,,
has satisfied them of'the error of their judgment. No exhibition on
the road has given greater satisfaction, and none have achieved as great a
degree of popularity. Neither labor nor money lips been spared to make
it the most expensive and choice exhibition on the road, and the almost
daily tremendous audiences applauding the fact of the different artists;
have served to stimulate the management to even greater efforts. Tbro’-
out the Middle States and New England, the Dominions of New Bruns
wick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island. C’ape Breton and New Found
land, there has been but one voice from the press and public as to the in
trinsic merits of this mammoth enterprise. Messrs. IIAIGIIT <fc CO.,
feel an excusable pride in thus referring to their repeated triumphs and.
praise of the world which lias but one verdict as to the high charactcr
and superiority of this first class arenio and zoological combination.
