Judge Clarke’s iliomiiia
tioei—lts Popularity.
Editor Appeal: The nomination
of lion. John T. Clarke, for Sena
tor, was a lucky step. Since its an
nouncement, the manifestations of
popular approval have been uncom
mon and extraordinary. All avow
unqualified confidence in Judge
Clarke’s abilities and integrity, and
we are all pleased with the oppor
tunity of showing, by his election
to that honorable office, our appre
ciation of talents and virtue. There
fore no signs of opposition appear.
The friends of McDonald and Turn
iin, while manfully struggling for
the mastery, as to the House of
Representatives from Randolph,
alike indorse and support our can
didate for the Senate. Both tire
Cuthbert papers, while firing brisk
ly into each other about Tumiin and
McDonald, warmly support Judge
Clarke. Some apprehension was
felt in some quarters, lest the friends
of Col. Turnipseed might put him
forth as an independent. But we
are happy to say, upon good au
thority, that the Colonel is much
pleased with the nomination, and
that he and his friends stand firmly
by our standard bearer.
This unanimity speaks flattering
ly of Judge Clarke’s popularity.—
But it speaks no less siguifieantly of
the harmonizing tendency in the
District, and the general desire to
be ably and honorably represented.
We sincerely trust that all parts and
classes will unite in supporting the
Judge at the election. His services
in the Senate cannot but reflect
credit on South-west Georgia and
Randolph county in particular.

Editor Appeal ;
It is really amusing to see how
our Tumiin friends beg and dodge
their own issue. For the past six
Weeks they have busied themselves,
charging and snorting around over
the country, and publishing various
articles through their organ, in com
mendation of Mr. Tumiin's charity,
humanity, etc., endeavoring to
blind the poorer classes of our citi
zens with these flimsy pretexts.—
Even Mr. TANARUS., himself, has not re
mained idle in this part of the pro
gramme; for with a degree of self
laudation, wonderful to behold, he
appears before the public and
“ thanks his God for the milk of
human kindness that flowed so free
ly through bis breast, prompting
him to these many acts of humani
ty, etc.” He would have us believe
that even the negro women and lit
tle negro children of the county hold
him enshrined in their hearts for
these many acts that knew no mo
tive, save a fair trial,” and if it be
true that it has come to pass in the
history of our county that these col
ored men must have Mr. T. on their
bonds to obtain a lair trial, then in
behalf of the good people, and espe
cially McDonald men of our county,
I thank him for this disinterested
act of humanity, for I know they
want justice to prevail.
But fellow citizens, it seems that
tiiey failed to discover until too late
for their good, that they were at
tacking us with a two-edged sword,
and when we began to use their
own weapon upon them they at
tempt to dodge the question, and
fail to come up like men, and meet
their own issues fairly and squarely.
They started the cry of “poor man’s
friend.” They raised the issue of
“ rich man’s candidate,” and when
we began to hold them up to the
gaze of a scrutinizing public, and
point out ilie hollowness of their
pretenses, tiny raise their hands in
holy horror and cry aloud that we
are meddling with the private acts
of their candidate, is it possible
that you thus dodge your own is
sue and attempt to screen your
man behind such a flimsy pretext ?
Let me acquaint you with the fact
that it is by private, as well as pub
lie acts, that men are known and
estimated, it is upon these scales
that we would have Mr. McDonald
weighed and tested. And you
should learn a profitable lesson from
your experience in this matter, and
remember the trite old adage that
“ Those who live in glass houses
should not cast stones.”
But while we are on the subject
of “poor man’s triend,” “ humanity,
disinterested kindness,” etc., allow
me to relate another one of Mr.
Tumlin’s noble deeds of charity,
and if it adds any lustre to his crown
let him have the benefit of it Liv
ing in our county there is a man by
the name of James Daniel, who,
some time since, had a son to get in
trouble and was placed in our coun
ty jail. Mr. Daniel was a poor
man, and he approached Mr. Tuinlin
and appealed to his sympathy and
asked him to go upon his son’s
bond for three hundred dollars for
his appearance at court. Mr. TANARUS.,
with all his kindness, said to him
that he would do so if he would
give him one hundred dollars, and
a deed to his land to seeure him.—
He did not have the money, but as
a last resort he gave Mr. Tumiin a
good mare, valued at $125 to sign
the bond and take up a note of $25
given as a fee to a lawyer, and sur
rendered the deeds to his land to se
cure him. When the case was call
ed in court, Mr. Daniel was dis
charged for want of evidence. On
last Monday Mr. Tumiin surrender
ed the deeds, but kept the horse for
the use of his uame on the bond.
The land was worth double the
amount of the bond, and the horse
was a clear profit to Mr. Tumiin,
less $25 paid Col. Fielder, without
any risk whatever. Was there any
of the “milkot human kindness”
in this act ? any disinterestedness ?
or any motive in view ? If human
ity prompts him to go upon the
bond of the “ poor colored man,”
why does he have to be paid
to go upon the bond of the
“poor white man’s?” Let the good
people of Randolph county answer
this question on the sth of Decein
ber next.
That these are facts, fellow citi
zens, can be substantiated by Mr.
Daniel himself, and other good
men. They seem to harp a great
deal about the Cary Barnes matter,
“white man,” for instance. I will
state that Mr. McDonald has been
forced to resort to this matter for
his own vindication. It lias been
charged upon him for the purpose
of arraying our colored people
against him, “ that the McDonald’s
raised the row with Barnes, and
run him away from the polls, and
thus scared him down.” Mr. Me
Donald has only referred to the
matter as related to him by Mr.
Tutnlin himself, and never would
have done so had it not been neces
sary to vindicate himself against
these charges before the colored
people, and we are satisfied to sub
mil the question to the voters ot the
county, and ask, if what is “ sauce
for the goose is not sauce for the
gander ?” Be assured “ White
man ” that the voters of Randolph
county can’t be gulled by any such
subtiluge ; they know McDonald
too well. Ho has ever proved faith
ful to our party, and is as true and
tried a democrat as lives in the
county. About the money to pur
chase poor men, we deny, most etn
poatically, the charges. We don’t
want any such votes. If there are
any such men in our county, buy
them yourselves; and if you are
out of money, call upon the “ Black
Book Man,” and we will loan you
some—for from appearances now,
you will need all such votes on the
sth of December next. Justice.
A Problem tor tlic Tax
payers of Georgia.
By way of illustration let us
suppose that a citizen owns a good
comfortable dwelling in Milledge
vi lie, which with the grounds at
tached is worth SIOO,OOO, and,
that he also owns a very rickety,
uncomfortable and ill constructed
bouse in Atlanta, which—he having
been egregiously swindled in its
purchase—cost him S2OO 000. He
can’t occupy both houses, and must
abandon one of them. His Atlanta
property will sell perhaps for half
what it cost, while his Milledgeville
property it abandoned would not
sell for the cost of the brick and
mortar. A disinterested Atlanta
friend advises him to set fire to his
Milledgeville property and sell his
Atlanta house for what he can get
he (the aforesaid disinterested At
lanta friend) promising to give him
a lot and contribute titty thousand
dollars to help hi in build anew
house at a cost ot five hundred thous
and dollars We will suppose, for
the sake of the argument, that the
man is dunce enough to accept the
advice of his disinterested Atlanta
friend how much would he save by
the operation? We submit the
problem to the tax payers ot Geor
gia.— Savannah Morning News.

—Quitman Superior Court con
vened on last Monday, Judge Craw
ford presiding. The Jurors that
had been summoned, responded
promptly as their names were call
ed, after which they were sworn in
by the Solicitor General. Besides
the local bar we noticed the follow
ing gentlemen from a distance: Col.
R. E Ivennon, of Fort Gaines, Du
pont Guerry, of Americas, Janies
H. Guerry, of Dawson, Judge Clarke,
Cols. Fielder, Hood, Flewellen,
Douglass and Won-ill from Cutb™

—Miss T. P., a beauty of Cnth
bert, was visiting friends in George
town the past week.
—At the last meeting of the City
Council Mr. William Jordan was
elected marshal of Georgetown.
—The Tax Collector requests us
to say that on and after the Ist of
December the tax books will bo
closed. All should come forward
and settle before that day, as it will
save much trouble and time.
Our young friend, W. A. Jor
dan, was admitted to the bar at the
November term of Quitman Superi
or Court. Bis examination was
very creditable. Wo wish him
much success.
—As stated in last week’s paper
the convention that met in Lump
kin to nominate a Senator for this
district, failed or refused to make a
nomination. According to the ro
tation system Quitman county is en
titled to the nomination. Col. Har
rison, who was elected for the peri
od of four years, has served out on
ly one year, and it is nothing but
right that he serve out his unexpired
term The fact that he lost the
time for which he was elected, does
not in the least affect Quitman coun
ty. Col. Harrison should be bis
own successor to the office which
he has filled with such marked abil
ity-
—A young man who lives a short
distance in the country happened to
a mishap not many days ago. Late
in the evening he went out to where
some workmen were cutting and
splitting rails, and wishing to ascer
tain the number of rails they had
split he concluded to count them.—
In walking over the rails his foot
slipped and he fell and his face hit
in a puddle of turpentine. The fall
lie considered insignificant, but the
fact of having his whiskers (and he
doted on them) besmeared in such
a style was more than he could
stand. lie went home and after
using all the soap on tho place in
the vain hope of getting the vicious
stuff out of them, he was compelled
to sacrifice them.
—Mr. Morris, one of Georgetown's
most enterprising citizens, has
“ touched ” off the post in a
most elegant style. It is now, one
of the most attractive little build
ings in town.
—The hens in this county must
be on a strike and a big one at
that. It is almost out of the ques
tion to buy eggs for less than 20
cents per dozen.
—A family left this county last
Wednesday for Texas.
The fortress and city of Kara fell
into the hands of the Russians on
Sunday last. The Turks lost five
thousand killed and wounded, ten
thousand prisoners and many flags.
Three hundred cannon, stores, am

the trophies.
It is now asserted that the Turks
have lost by battle and disease at
least 200,000 men. Money is
scarce, and the pay consequently
poor. Nearly all of the army sur
geons are foreigners, and they are
threatening to resign in a body.
