THE APPEAL. J. P. SAWTELL, | E. H. GROUBY, EDITORS AND rROTKItTOI’S. CUTHBERT: YRIDAY, Dec. 4, 1874. Alerting of the Demecrat ic Executive Committee. At a meeting of the Democratic Executive Committee held in Cnlh l?rt on Saturday, 21st inst., the fol lowing to adopted : Retolced, That the people of the Democratic party meet in their re spective Districts on Sfffitrday, Dee, 3th. and select five delegates. Said del egates to meet m Convention in the <qty of Cuthbert on Saturday the 12th, and nominate candidates for the various County Officers, to be voted for at the election in January next. W. L. Baldwin, Chairman. IVotlce to Subscribers. Subscribers to the ArrEAi. are most earnestly requested to at once come forward and pay up. AV e have indulged many of them quite as long as they could possibly ask indulgence. We have to pay cash lor everything we use, and can’t run long accounts. We mean what we B ay. Then come up, and help us out, * Vole It. The following names have been handed in with the suggestion that they be balloted for on to-morroy for delegates to the Convention to assemble on the 12th to nominate candidates for county offices. They arc of our best citizens, and we hope the white voters of onr dis trict will turn out and manifest a becoming interest in the selecting of delegates. The names suggested arc J I’. Lyle, Willis Jenkins, W. C. Brooks, W. C. Gunn, Jno. L. Brown-. The Glorious West !—We have recently read a lettar from Cawley county, Kansas, written by a young man who a few years since left his home in Teun., to seek his fortune m the great West. His descrip tion of the country is everything hut encouraging. A drougth com pletely blasted the crops, and farm ers were killing their hogs to prevent their death from starvation—many unable to fatten enough meat for tluir own use. The writer says that the country is full of young men willing and anxious to work through the winter for their board, and arc unable to get employment on those teims. Ho says many families arc forced to move back to older settled countries for sub sistence, leaving their houses and lands unoccupied. No sales can be made of stock of any kind, owing to the failure in crops. Who would quit Randolph or any other county in Georgia, to live in Cawley or any other county in Kansas? Still wo hear some say ing: If they could only sell out and go west, they would be happy. Our advice is remain in Georgia. The negro convention called to meet in Atlanta on Tuesday last, was attended by between GO and ,0 delegates, each pregnant with a different idea as to the object of their meeting. Resolutions memo rializing Congress to pass the Civil Rights bill—advocating a general colonization movement to Alabama and Alississip;—to remain in Geor gia and fight it out on the old. line —repudiating carpetbagger,—de nouncing Democracy—swearing al legiance to everything--disapprov ing everything—etc. etc., were of fered, tabled, referred, lost, etc.— Thus ended thu business of the first day, they being unable to obtain a sufficient member of the same mind to act on any committee. It is be lieved they will adjourn sine die et disyusto before they determine what it was “dnt fetch em up dull.” Another—AY e learn that Sam Williams—“ Jolly Sam”—of Ter sell county, lost a gin house, gin, screw, and about 18 bags of cotton by fire on Monday last. This prop erty was on one of h<s Calhoun county plantations. Arrested—TheEufala News says the following citizens of that place have been arrested at the instance of Keiles, on a charge of conspiracy and murder on day of election : lion Wells J. Bray, Messrs. A. 11. Left witch, L. W. McLaughlin, C. C. Skilhnan, Win. McCormick, Henry McCormick, Young John son, Harrison Ilart, Dan. Rowlett, 11. J. Woods, Wm. Courtney, J. J. Creyon, Jack Doughtie, Gen. Al pheus Baker, Tom Chiton, C. E. Goodwin, E. B. McCrary, G. L. Comer, James Martin. R. A. Well born, T. D. Patterson, li, M. Jenn ings, T. li. McTyer. All of these parties excepting Baker, Comer Patterson and Courtney gave $lO,- 000 bonds. The Duly of Ihe Hour. As predicted, there v. ill be two sets of candidates for our different coun ty offices to be filled by election in January next. The ones nomina tod (!) on Saturday last, and those to be nominated on the 12th inst. For surely those claiming to be nom inated on last Saturday cannot ask the endorsement of the Democratic Convention to assemble next week. Ilcnce the inevitable breach, which all should deplore and regret. The duty of the friends of true Democracy is plain and unmistaka ble. Let good and true men—men who cherish a higher regard fur Democratic principles than individ ual claims, and who desire to restore and perpetuate our party organiza tion—be chosen to-morrow as dele gates to the Convention. Let each District send forward her delegates with no other instructions than to nominate good and true men, and let every Democrat resolve in ad vance to support the names they may present. Let it be the determ ination of all to restore peace and harmony to our county, and stop forever this political stiife and bick ering, which can only be accomplish ed, in onr judgment, in this way. The farce witnessed in our midst on Saturday last, when negroes who have never voted with the Demo cratic party, were allowed—yea, in vited—to choose candidates for a faction claiming to be Democrats, should receive the rebuke it justly merits, by being universally repudi ated. If the ticket put forth by this class of voters on Saturday last is their choice, and the candidates en ter the canvass with no other en dorsement, let it be so, but never let it be said that i t was ratified by the Democratic party, at the polls in January next. We believe emphat ically in A WHITE MAX'S GO I ERXMEXT, and cannot recognize the wisdom or even pro priety of asking our political ene mies ignorant as they are —to choose our officers, either State, County or Municipal. We hold this to be l ight, and knoic it to be Dem ocratic. There arc names on the ticket vo ted Saturday last we have cheerfully and cordially supported in times past, and who have made good offi cers, but then they came under the endorsement of the party with which we have over affiliated, and if they had the same claims this campaign, we should do likewise.— We believe f hey made a mistake in thus seeking a nomination,by asking or permitting their political enemies to oast their ballots for their candida cy, without any good reason for be lieving they would ratify their own actions in January. That, how ever,is a question for them to consid er, and- one for which the Democrat ic party should uot feel at all respon sible. We therefore insist that the rem edy for all our political strile lies in the hands of the white Democracy of our county,' and we have faith in its being effectually applied. An Elopement in Webster County. —The Lumpkin Independ ent has the following : On Friday of last week Airs. M. F. Hardy, wife of Mr. Charles Har dy of Webster county took advan tage of her husband’s absence and eloped with W. C. Kelly, a married man who lived near by. Kelly left his wife and one child, an infant, about two months old, but took with him his tarn oldest children. Airs. Hardy left her only child a daughter about 10 years of ago, at a neighbor’s house. Kelly, who had pre-arranged the whole affair, had hired Ilardy to carry a load of cotton to Americas for him on the Thursday before, thus getting Har dy out of the way. It is reported that the runaway couple procured been esc in Columbus and were mar ried on Friday night last. They are thought to be on thoir way to the West. The President lias heietofore or dered the distribution of rations without the sanction of Congress, and a bill was easily passed to send rations to Alabama, ostensibly for the relief of sufferers by the flood, but which were carried far away from the streams aud distributed to the negroes about election time to influence their votes. But when the white sufferers of Tuscumbia appeal to the President for aid lie suddenly discovers that lie lias no power to issue rations or to help them in any way. Five colored men have been elect ed to the next Congress, all new men. Two are from South Caroli na, one from North Carolina, one from Alabama, and one from Louis iana. The Savannah News, together with other leading papers of the State, insist upon a Constitutional Convention to kill the bogus bonds. They are fearful of the result if left alone to legislative enactment. — They wish to rob the wire-workers and greasy lobby members out of a “fat take,” and we hope they may be successful. The editor of the Cape Ann Ad vertiser says th.it a clean shirt is one of woman's best gifts to man ! The Rational Democratic Victory. Is the late sweeping victory and triumph of principle over fraud and corruption final or merely tempora ry, is a matter for serious consider ation. That Conservative Republi cans acting with the Democratic par ty to defeat obnoxious and extremely unnatural measures does not, as a matter of course, muster them into the Democratic ranks as regular soldiers in future conflicts, where other measures may constitute the issue. It is now a mooded ques tion os to what caused the disaffec tion in the Republican party in the late contest in the various States ? I The modern Cicsar says it was no i act of his, but it was the Congres sional indiscretion in attempting to j force upon the American people the impracticable and Utopian theories of Senator Sumner, as embodied in the Civil Rights Bill. It is now manifest that President Grant’s ret icence pending the agitation of the Bill iu Congress was to remain un committed until the question of its expediency and popular favor be determined. If it had passed be it remembered that Cajsar would have sanctioned it. Bat now the populace has stamped it with a just and merited condemnation, and the President with his own character istic policy can and lias broken the silence and takes a decided stand with the majority and openly wash es his hands of the infamy, and de clares that it was the Utopian meas ure of Senator Sumner that the Re publican Congress wished to force upon the American people. Now Air. Grant’s policy is settled, and lie is now opposed io the Utopian theory of Mr. Sumner upon princi ple because the majority of the American people hive declared against it, and bis principles are governed by majorities, and now if at tbc next session of Congress the Republican party persists in a their effort to force the Utopian theory upon the people, he will veto it, be cause that is now decided to be the popular side of the question. It is very manifest that President Grant is not governed by principle and be will exercise the veto povv as a poli cy to reorganize and reunite the Republican party, and to accomplish this end, the patronage of the Ad ministration will be employed, and the finances of the Government even to a depletion ot the Treasury, will be recklessly abused, and these com bined, constitutes a power that is hard to resist, much less to over come even by majorities. If it be true that this wonderful political revolution is the result of Air. Sum ner s Utopian theory, it is only a victory over that one measure, and is not neccessarily a compleie Dem ocratic victory. It we are satisfied with this victory and lay down our arms and go into winter quarters and become torpid, the current will turn, the tide will flow back and we will lose that we have gained.— This may only prove a Alanassas victory, then the grand army of the Potomac was driven back with great slaughter and dispersed in wild coufusion, and the victorious army satisfied with its valor and discipline, over estimating its own strength and prowess, and under estimating that of the enemy. But the defeated army had a Govern ment, with ample resources to re cruit and reorganize it. So it is in this political Warfare, the enemy is routed and dispersed ; but they have the patronage and resources of the Government to reorganize and rediscipline, and if we are not vigi lant and constantly drilling and strengthening our ranks,the tide of battle will turn and sweep over the country like a hurricane. Bat this is only an opinion of the cause of the Republican defeat and upon that hypethests we reason upon the dan ger of recuperation and the loss of our victory. But there are other reasons far more weightly that Caesar has lost sight of, or in his egotism has fancied that as they were his acts, and the King can do no wrong, the defeat cannot be at tributed to them. He declares his aspirations for a third term could be no cause of offense to the people. liis uepotisin could have nothing to do with it. His absence from offi cial duties, nor his San Domingo policy, his gift bribes, his increased pay, nor his back salaiy grab, nor his partizan intermeddling in Lou isiana, nor credit Mobiler, nor the financial panic, caused by the gam | bling of a banking-house establish ed by a Republican President, and fraudulent transactions that brought ruin upon the country. And Caesar looking from his imperial stand point, declares that none of these things, in the slightest degree, of fended tiie people, or had any ef fect upon the sections. Speaking of Thanksgiving Day sermons, the turkey suggests a text: “ Which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven.” The prayer of an office-seeker — “ Oil that f were an event, that l might take place !” A. 11. Stephens. The Monroe Advertiser thus speaks of this prominent citizeo, and we must say that a portion of his criticisms are in full accord with onr own views. Had A 11. S. died with the close of the war his memory would have been eheer ished as one of Georgi’as brightest and best men. But, alas, he has surely outlived his day and beyond his influence, if not the desire of hundreds of his (former) admirers : We desire to enter the solemn protest of a large number ot the people of Georgia against the con duct of Air A. Stephens, who has gone to Washington and has had a long confidential talk with Gen. Grant, and is represented to be in perfect accord with him on the “Third Term” question. That means that Air. Stephens desires to support Grant for another term of oflice. Forgetting the indignities heaped upon the people ot tire South by the selfish, money-loving, bribe t; ping President, M Stephens has the audacity to endorse Grant and to pretend to represent the views of his constituents and of the peo ple of Georgia. Charity constrains us to believe that Air. Stephens i-s crazy. He has been a giant in his day, and was at one time the boast and pride of the people of the Empire State. But his great ness has departed, his intellect has failed and there is only left a weak old man, still loving applause and notoiiety, still vain and egotisti cal, still as hungry and thirsty for oflice as at any tune in his life. In what he has done at Washington bo has misrepresented the entire thinking, intelligent white popula tion of his State. A correspondent ot the New York Tribune writes: “I had a most gratifying conversation with General John B. Gordon, Senator from Georgia, and one of the ablest men in the South. He said: “We all begin to feel as if we were in the Union again. I never saw any thing like the change that has been wrought in our people by this evi dence that we arc no longer to be suspected and proscribed by the people of the North. Why, even the ladies take part in the general rejoicing, and begin to talk about the Union as though they had a personal interest in it, and you know many of them have boasted all along that they were ‘not recon structed', ami expected never to be.’ At a mass-meeting the other night at which there was a great enthu siasm, nothing said by’ me was so much applauded as the words in which I pledged the people of Georgia to stand by the cosntitu tion, the Union and the enforcement of the laws;: my denunciation of the radicals and radicalism did not call forth half so much enthusiasm as my expression of Union sen li nnets and good will to the people of the whole country.” General Gor don thought the policy of the Demo crats in* Congress would not be reactionary as to any of the ideas embodied in the constitutional amendment adopted since the war and laws enacted thereunder;: poli cy, no less than common honesty, dictates the strict enforcement of all laws by which the rights of the freedmen have been enlarged, and demands that tho white people, as a class, show themselves true friends of the colored race. Between the two races in Georgia the feeling is one of friendship, and their rela tions are improving; the carpet-bag gers are gradually leaving for more congenial fields of labor. Left to themselves, the Southern whiles and the Southern blacks may live in peace and prosperity. Democratic Governors five years ago where rather scarce. There were but five or six in all the Slates. Now we have, or soon will have, twenty-one, as they have been elect ed. Look on this column and then on that .• .

Governor Booth, of California, and Taylor, of Wisconsin, uro thor oughly Independent. No More Middlemen, —The At lanta News says propositions have been made to the Georgia State Grange by “various parties—the most feasible proposition comes from St. Louis—to supply provis ions agricultural implements, and other articles necessary for their use. The executive committee of the State Grange held a meeting in this city yesterday to take into con sideration the proposition from St Louis. We have not learned what conclusion they come to in the mat ter.” The proposed reenactment of the usury law in Georgia is being pretty generally discussed by the press of the State. President Gran! and t’le Civil Rights Bill, The President, in conversation upon ihe Civil Rights bill, is re ported as having expressed the opinion that he has always looked upon some of the measures advo cated in that connection as exceed ingly unwise; that he does not think that legislation designed to regulate the social relations of any class ol people is judicious, and generally gives rise to a state of feeling,calculated to do more mil chief than good. There were some things which had bettei find their own level than to force results out of the natural course. Every citi zen, he believes, is entitled to cer tain rights, and be he white or black, rich or poor, those rights should be enjoyed in untrammelled freedom. So far, he has favored civil rights, but when it has been brought up as a social question, in which congressional interference can effect no beneficial results, and only annoy a very large, influential and intelligent class-, be has opposed any further steps; and had the bill before Congress last session been presented for his signature, as al ready known, be would have ve toed it, and that he will do with any other bill of a similar nature with similar provision on social questions. In the matter of mixed schools, the Vrsideut is reported to have remarked that to enforce such a measure would be of no service to the colored man, and would destroy the common schools of the United States, and deprive the poor of all classes of an education. What change there might be i-n public sentiment in the future he thought the future had better determine. It was quite evident to him that mix ed schools would drive away the children of a large class who need education, and for whom the free schools were first established. lie only alluded in this matter to ihe past of the national government. - As far as the action of the States was concerned,, that was a question entirely local and for them to de cide. If public sentiment favored mixed schools they could-have them, but it was no part of the duty of Congress to force such a measure whether or not upon communities of antagonistic views. The Presi dent thinks that there should be ap prepriated provisions every where for the education-of the col ored race; and experience has al ready demonstrated that where the numbers are great they should have their own schools and a proportion ate share of the receipts lor the sup port of schools ; and where the numbers are small, they have al most universally been admitted to the public schools of the whites. Colored Uanigration. The Albany News alludes to the fact that Southwest Georgia is now overrun by emigration agents, whose business it is to persuade the ne groes that somewhere amid the miasmatic fogs and vapors of the West, there glitters- in- the sun a modern paradise where gumbo grows on trees, and where the intel ligent and obliging corn shucks it self. While we are not by any means apprehensive that the State is likely to be deprived edits availa ble labor through this means, nev ertheless there is more reason to fear this movement than the Color ed Convention in Atlanta. These agents are shrewd of speech, and can induce tho average negro to shake the fever trees of Texas with very little trouble; and if the emigration movement proves to be a general thing, it will be brought about by the activity of these men and the low tares ot the rail road 1 interested in the movement rather than by the discontent of the colored politicians. We are perfectly willing to give up a certain element of our negro pop ulation, but we are by no means in clined to see worthy and industrious colored men drawn into the disas ters of a Western trip by the mis representations of men who are paid so much ahead for all the negroes forwarded. There is room here for Legislative action. Brake Words —In the course of his inaugural speech in Montgomery on November 21th, Governor Hous ton said : “ We must restore the credit of the State to its former high and honorable position,preserve inviolate her good faith, and at the same time protect her people again-t excessive and unjust taxation. All citizens of Alabama truly desire peace and perfect restoration of fra ternal relations between all sections of our common country. They are loyal to the Govonneut of the Unit ed States and will readily yield a cheerful obedience to its authority and laws. They only ask to be permuted under the constitution and laws of the country to exorcise, secure from unwarrantable interfer ence, the right of just and wise legal selt goverment.” United States ffigs were conspicuous in the piocession. B RUN'S WICK AND A LEAKY RaIL Road. —The Brunswick Appeal states that this road“ has establish a depot at the end of their line, two miles this side of Albany, and put ou a line of hacks aud drays from the depot into the city. This ac tion was made necessary by a re fusal of the use of the track and bridge of the Atlantic and Gulf rail road,except upon such terms as were deemed ruinous to the Brunswick and Albany rail road, by the Gen eral Superintendent. At Home Again.— Three fami lies from Texas passed through this city Friday night enroute to their stamping grounds. They had been residents of the Lone Star State respectively, one, four and eight years, but with hopes and ex pectations disappointed, they found it desirable to return to their old homes in Randolph and Clay coun ties, Ga. —Eufala News.
