To which the following answer was received: Washington, D. C., ( Oct, 18, 1872. ] To T. Hardeman, Jr.; ► The law requires separate tickets, net separate ballot-boxes. H. W. Slocum. This information is important, hnd we ask our Democratic ex changes to Copy it. This law had escaped our observation, tend, we doubt not, that of our cotempora ries generally.— Macon Telegraph. A Woiidei'fuKnhost Story Macon has been on pins the past week over the wonderful reports re ceived and circulated iu her midst, from No. 6, Macon &. Brunswick Railroad. The press of that city Tiave succeeded in arousing the latent superstitions of the people in various parts, and you could hear the “ raps and taps, and see myste rious signs” of ‘‘spirits of (jflst) men made perfect,” even in “ well regulated f am dies.” We acknowledge that we uncon sciously became interested, and longed to “see the veil lifted,” and the mystery solved. But alas lor human expectations, they were all blasted in the twinkling of an eye. A thoughtless reporter, in one .of the Macon papers, introduced a swine in the parlor of the haunted house, and “thereby hung the tale.” “A bog iu a parlor,” or a “ bull, in a china shop ” are well calculated to create uneasiness as to the safety ' bf the wares. We will sec, however, what ex planation our Macon brethren will offer in the premises. In the mean time we would advise all to keep ’Cool. Pickpockets reaped a rich harvest during the late State Fair. One man lost SOOO, find many others sums ranging from $25 to SSO; Cobb county received the pre mium of five - hundred dollars in offOffd for the'county exhib iting the largest amount of merito rious products at tlu? State Fair. The Approach mg Elec tions. Only a few days will elapse be fore tbp final struggle for the su-' pn mltey of law and Constitutional rights and liberties over those of, centralization and * usurpation will bo made, .In' Georgia we have naught to fear, if we are but true to ourselves, and stand up boldly in the maintainance of our principles, and support our nominees. We have a majority of fully GO,OOO "(MS cannot be overcome, if we but act. There appears to' be a despondency pervading the minds of a few, brought about by the re cent elections in the North and West, which may effuse some to re lax their energies, or even to let the election pass by without participat ing in it. This policy would be suicidal in the extreme. We can elect our Congressmen beyond a peradventure, which, of itself should stimulate us to action, while the re sult in Ohio and Pennsylvania are not or should npt be, discouraging to any who are willing to tcorlc and do for the good of our country. When we consider that the result in Pennsylvania and Ohio was -’brought about by unparalleled fraud, and that this fraud cannot be so successfully practiced in the Presidential contest, there is strong ground for hope that these States may yet roll up handsome majori ties for Greeley and Brown. When we reflect that thousands of negroes were sent to these States, especially to Pennsylvania, and there “colo nized ’’ for the sole purpose of in fluencing the election, and that this cannot be done in the November contest, there is just and reasonable ground to hope that the result will bo different. .Apart from this, it will then be a contest between Greeley and Grant; personal preferences will be laid aside, and the vote will turn upon the salvation or destruction of the American Union. Wc arc not yet prepared to believe that a majority of the voters of this nation are ready to cast their ballots in favor of the latter, and when the final test is made, we confidentially bo lieve it will result in the complete overthrow of Grantism, and the res toration of the Governnpdt to its legitimate functions. Anothei 4 ground for hope is found in the fact, that in this final struggle for freedom and equality, those Democrats who have hitherto held aloof from the Reform movement will, be called upon to take a decided stand ; and with the destinies of the nation trembling in the balance, and the duties and obligations of Amer ican freemen pressing upon their hearts and consciences, they must lean to the side of law and order, or prove traitors to themselves, their country, and their God. We believe that a large majority of this class of voters will meet the issue as becomes men who are struggling to be free; those who have sold their honor for office, or the pros pect of office, would not hesitate to lend their treacherous aid in pulling down this glorious fabric of our freedom, if they pould but rise up on its crumbling ruins to position, place and power. Such traitors, however, are few in number, and as they are generally men devoid of in fluence, they will prove of little avail to Grant, and no less whatever to the South. Take courage then, and never give up the ship as long as there is aught to hope or work for. We have good and sufficient grounds to be cheerful and courageous, aud if we but work yet a little longer vic tory will crown our efforts. Georgia Sentiment. From that able paper, the South ern Watchman, of Athens, we ex tract the following timely warning to our Straight friends, who have not been so thoroughly steeped in the “ gall of bitterness ” as to lose sight of the only issue presented to them : * ' “ Rule OR Ruin.” —The Demo cratic bolters, who call themselves “.Straights,” (we don’t know .why, unless they know they are on the straight road to Grantisms) are still persisting in their folly, and to con summate it, have put in nomination the following electoral ticket.— Os course it cannot give Georgia to Grant, if the true Democrats who have not bolted turn out and vote for Greeley; but th-e moral ef fect of it may give him the vote of some other States where our major ities are not so large. We beg every man who. wants Grant elected to go forward boldly and vote for him, Do not attempt, by indirection, to do what you are ashamed to do directly. Grant or Greeley will be tbe next President. Those who work against Greeley are, of course, aiding Grant, nega tively, at least.. Tbe man who has not sense enough to see this ought not to be trusted by himself ten minutes at a lime. Harris, of the Savannah News, perpetrates the following: The editor of the Dawson Journal broke an egg the other day which contained two yolks and a small egg. Within the small egg is a still small er one. When the liens are thus found nobly doing their duty, .why shofild any Democrat refuse to vote for Mr. Greeley'? Sossth Carolina Atroci ties Inaisgisratctl in Geor gia. The Game of Intimidation Begun. Grant’s Minions at Work. From Mr. W. Cannon, a highly re’spectabie citizen of Toombsboro, we gathered last night the follow ing particulars of one of the most high-handed outrages that ever has been perpetrated upon the soil of Georgia. It seems ohe Morris, the negro candidate from Wilkinson, has been up to Atlanta for some time, operating-upon H. P. Farrow and A. T. Akerman, and fabricating the most absurd and preposterous Kuklux charges against many of the best citizens of that county. — Those worthies believing, doubt less, that a bold coup de main in behalf of Grant, on the eve of the election, might alarm and demor alize his opponents, it is said lent a willing ear to Morris, and assisted him in piocuring from United States Commissioner Swayze war rants for the arrest of a large num ber of citizens upon negro affidavits On Monday night, this man Mor ris came down from Atlanta at the head of a large detachment of Uni ted States troops, under the com mand of a Lieutenant, and, pro ceeding to Toombsboro, lrwinton and other points, seized in their beds and arrested the following gen tlemen : Dr. T. A. Simmons, Messrs. Henry Hymans, R. Hymans, W. Dickson, j. D. Valandingham, Geo. Gilbert, Milton Laudsay, D. Car lisle and two brothers Peacock.—- These unfortunate individuals were then hurried off to Savannah, there to be tried for their lives upon the accusation of ignorant negroes, who, more than probable, neither know nor care for the obligations of an oath. Our informant had been sent to Macon to procure counsel for the prisoners, aud had obtained for them the services of Col. W. A. Lofton, who left for Savannah by the night train. Other arrests, as will be seen in another column, were also made in this city yesterday. We are not posted as to the precies nature of the charges against any of the Wil kins parties, but learn that some of them date back one or more years, and all are of the Kuklux descrip tion. t A considerable number of soldiers are still encamped near Toombs boro, and will doubtless continue to harry every peaceful citizen who may happen to incur the ire of any vagabond negro. The "above intelligence will send a thrill of indignation through ev ery patriot heart in Georgia. Has it come to this already ? Are free men to be dragged from their beds at midnight, without a moment’s intimation, and hurried off to prison by ruffian soldiery, at the behest of ignorant and unprincipled negroes? Where is the right of habeas cor pus, and what are the boasted lib erties of American citizens ? But if it be tbe aim of the Ad ministration, by such deeds ol vio lence, to intimidate and overawfe the white voters of Georgia, they little know the metal of our people. This very outrage will be worth 5,000 votes to Mr. Greeley in No vember. W e shall- await with much interest the denouement of the affair. The above is taxon from the Ma con Telegraph of Wednesday. — The other arrests alluded to in the .article, .were those of Geo. W. Gustin and Dr. A. P. Collins both highly respected citizens of Macon. They were ariested at the instance of Farrow, who, it is said has war rants for the,arrest of some twenty other citizens of that cily. We learned by passengers on yesterday’s train from Macon, that about a dozen more arrests had been made, and that warrants were out for some sixty others. The arrests in Macon were made under the charge of violation of the Enforce ment Act. The National Election Law.— The appointment of a chief super visor of elections bring to mind some of the peculiarities of the new Election law, of which city voters will have a taste next November. — Two supervisors are appointed for each election district by the United States circuit judge. They must be of different political parties, and able to read aDd write English; and for those accomplishments, added to their other qualifications, they will receive $5 a day. This is a novelty ; but nothing alongside of the remarkable powers devolving on the United States Marshal. — That personage may appoint spe cials unlimited in each and every election district. The number rests wholly with his discretion —and may be 1,000, 10,000 or 100,000. — The deputies, of whom no accom plishment except political fi delity, seems to be required, are also paid $5 a day. The business of the deputies is to keep order at the polls, prevent fraudulent regis tration and voting, and make them selves “ generally useful ” as the grateful recipients of government patronage might naturally be ex pected to do. The law is not one which \spruna facie to be admir ed. It is certainly a scheme for scattering government funds among large numbers of people, and it is open to abuse by unscrupulous functionaries. Its operation throughout the country at the na tional election will show whether the reai purpose of the law has been misjunged or not. —Ah Y. Jour nal Commerce. A man from the country went in to a store in Baihbridge on Thurs day, and offered the proprietor one dollar for as much as lie could eat. The offer was accepted, and the man placed himself upo-n the outside of six cans of cove oysters and a pound and a half of soda crackers. Democratic Prospects. Address of the national Dem ocratic Committee to the United States. The October elections are over. They enable us to form a tolqi ably accurate idea of the true political situation of the country. In Georgia we have to recount a victory for the Liberal ticket so unexampled as to take her out of the list of doubtful States, and prac tically tp pronounce in advance the decision of at least 125 votes iu the Electoral College. To this number it is only necessary to add sixty votes to elect Greeley and Brown. In Pennsylvania the distinguished Chairman of the Liberal Committee has eloquently characterized the methods by which the result of the election there was accomplished. We commend His statement to the thoughtful attention of the coun try. In Ohio, despite most unprece dented gains for the Liberal-Dem ocratic ticket, the Grant Managers have carried the election by a re duced majority, having brought to the polls their entire reserve vote. Had our Democratic friends in cer tain localities of that great com monwealth shown the same earnest ness and activity, and enabled us like our enemies to record our entire strength, they would now be exul ting over a brilliant victory. In Indiana the Democratic andLiber al forces have achieved a most im portant success over Pennsylvania tacties, most unscrupulously em ployed by the Administration and its allies, showing thus that a free people when aroused know their rights and dare maintain them. Indiana has fairly demonstrated that she can neither be “bought nor bullied.” The moral 'of these re sults is that victory is still iu plain view for our national ticket, and that energy and courage will assure it. That victory must be won. If we mean to preserve free institu tions on this continent we must as sure it. The event in Pennsylvania, on Tuesday last, when considered in its causes, is "the most appalling political catastrophe that has ever taken place in this country. Should the system through which this ca tastrophe was brought about be con doned by the people and foisted on the other States, it seals the doom of freedom in America. A sad contrast it is surely that the city in which our republic was horn amid the enthusiasm of a free people should now be the first to toll the knell of its liberties. It is for the free unbo.ught people of all the States to calmly review the fearful crime against suffrage in Pennsylva nia, and to decide whether it shall be repeated within their own bor ders. For the first time the system of free government and the sanctity of the ballot are really on trial in the United States. From this hour forward the preservation of the franchise in its integrity dwarfs all other issues. Let our friends' in each of the States catch inspiration from the heroic conduct ot our fellow-citizens in Georgia and in Indiana; and from now till November let their struggle be manful and unceasing for liberty and an untainted ballot box for Reform, and an honest ad ministration of the Government. Augustus Schell. Chairman National Democratic Committee. Married. DUKE- EVANS.— In the Presbyterian Church, Cuthbert. Ga., by the Rev. J. S. Cczby, on Thursday evening, Oet. 17th,'Mr. I. V. Dike, of Cuthbert, and Miss Mart It- Evans, of Albany—-daughter of the late Mr. John Evans of North’Carolina. Printer’s fee ‘ - 0 K—ake.” ©BITLARY. SIMMONS— Mrs. Sarah Simmons was born A. D., 1812. Died iu Dawson. Ga.. Oct. sth, 1872—aged 30 years, 1 month aud 24 day's. She married Judge J. M. Simmons in 1863. Iu this relation she filled her station so per fectly that her loss cannot he computed by the things which the world esteems as val uable, “ For her price was far above rubies- The heart of her husband did safely trust in her. She did him good, and not evil, ail the days of her life.” Having no children of her own, her maternal affection for a little step-son, to the last moment of life, was sim ply marvelous. She connected herself with the M. E. Church, South, in 1866 ; from which time h r Christian character wasslriel ly consistent and exemplary. Firmness was one of her characteristics, and manifested it self largely in her religious life. She was equally firm in her denunciations of every thing that savored of evil, as in her com mendations of all that was good and virtu ous. She was au earnest friend of Sabbath Schools, and, at the time of her death, the teacher of a large and interesting class who depply mourn their loss. She not only beard the lessons of her class, but labored to im part to them wholesome religious instruction. In the language of the Superintendent. ‘ ; she always kept her class full.” In 1870 she united with the Independent Order of Good Templars. In this, as iu every good thing, she enlisted with the zeal of her whole heart. Her sufferings were protracted lor some weeks, which she bore without a murmur. A day or two before her death she summoned her friends and relatives, as many as she could, to her bed-side, and addressed them, one at a time, with such an exhortation as she believed suited .each individual case ; and it is to be hoped that her wise council will produce the desired effect. Her theme was— “do right and serve God.” To her pastor she said, " Bro. Clarke, I am not afraid to die ; I have, not been as demonstrative as some others in my religious joy, but 1 am not afraid to die. I regret giving up my little boy more than anything else. J hope you will all counsel him to tie good, and keep out of bad company.” She di/d without a struggle. Tims our sister lms passed away, leaving a husband, an aged mother, and many relatives, with u large circle ot neighbors and friends io mourn their loss. But, “we sor row not as others which have no hope.” Thus star by star declines, ’Till all are passed away ; ■ As morning high and higher shines. To pure and perfect day Nor sink those stars in empty night. But hide themselves in Heaven’s own light. GEO. G. CL VKK.E.
