The Democrats have stripped it of
its miserable disguises, and shown
it up as a cunningly devised
scheme to reach, unseen, the pock
ets id the people, ami thus force
them to pay tribute to that class
of citizens who happen to lie en
gaged in manufacturing, or other
industrial enterprises. ,11 is an
outrage that needs no demonstra
tion, and which - only awaits the
action of the people for a necessa
ry and effective remedy. It is ab
solutely astonishing that in this
country which lias been proudly
called the “land of the free and
the home of the brave,” a politi
cal party should boldly declate its
purpose to tax the many for llie
benefit ol the few. And yet this
tlagrant iniquity has been perpe
trated. and when an honest and
economical administration of the
government shows an unnecessary
surplus ol revenue, and the people
demand a reduction of taxes upon
the necessities of life, this same
party announces in its platform ot
declarations that rather than mod
ify in the slightest degree the pro
tective system, it will flood the
country with free whiskey, though
this may create a pandemonium
in every community, and fill our
land with poverty and crime. This
then is the istnc upon which the
contest must he waged. It is true
the “bloody shirt” will he flaunt
ed and the cry of “free trade” will
he heard, lull all the ingenuity of
corrupt and unscrupulous Henia-
gogism cannot successfully divert
the attention of the people from
the great and all-absorbing still
jecl of revenue reform in flic in
terest of agriculture, which lias
heretofore been unnecessarily and
unjustly taxed for the protection
and enrichment of special anil fa
cored industries. The lime has
come when, rorluuately for the
welfare of the country, all public
questions can he decided upon
their merits, without undue sre
lional influences. Four years of
honest and sound and clean ad
ministration of the federal govern
ment have removed all doubts as
to the wisdom ami safety of en
trusting the Democratic party
with power, and standing as it
Union.
We think that it can lie safely
asserted that a majority of both
the grpat political parties are pro
Inhilionists at heart, and are only
awaiting the auspicious moment
when they can support their con
Ytclions with their ballots. The
third parly, however, will never
make a formidable show of
strength as lorg as the repuhliysn
party maintains its present power
ful organization. No Democrat,
however strong may he his prolii
bilion views, should he induced
to abandon his party, as long as
the country is threatened with the
dangers inseparable from the
domination of a corrupt, iinscrup
tilons, and fanatical sectional par
t v, such as the republicans have
proven themselves to lie. The re
turn of that parly to power by
means of divisions and dissensions
in the Democratic ranks, would
not only lie a calamity to all the
interests of the country, hut would
result in postponing the coming
conflict for the deliverance of the
people from the curse of the bar
rooms. The Democratic party
cannot lie destroyed, because it is
founded upon vital principles, and
will live as long as free govern
ment exists. The republican par
ty, on the contrary, possesses no
such vitality, no such living prin
ciple, and once completely over
thrown, will necessarily fall to
pieces. It had its origin in a
mere idea, in a fanatical senti
ment. the cause for which has long
since passed away, and the party
is held together liy the “cohesive
power of public plunder.” The
true policy, therefore, of the pro
hibitionists is evidently to defeat
and destroy tl.c republican party,
and upon its ruins build up the
political organization, whatever
may he its name, whose leading
principle, and whose paramount
purpose will he to drive intoxica

Kc-l'nioa of I he Old Soldier*.
On the 20ih inst., the Confeder
ale Veteran’s Association of Ran
dolph eonntv will hold their first
annual meeting or rc union at
Coleman. It is hoped that every
old soldier in thc county, whether
he belongs to the Association or
not, will lie present. The day will
lie pleasantly spent listening to
short addresses, and talking over
the stirring scenes, and terrible
experiences of twenty five years
ago, when our country was con
vulscd with war, and drenched
with the blood of her heroic sons.
Although aaquarler of a century
removed from the privations and
sacrifices, thc trials and sufferings,
the carnage and death, that char
acterized that ever memorable
struggle, yet no doubt to these
survning soldiers it seems as
though it were but yesterday —
Their impressions ol that critical
period arc so deep that no length
of time, no change of circumstan
ces, no enjoyment of prosperity,
can ever eradicate them from their
minds. It is well for these vete
rans of the Confederate cause to
meet at least once a year.
The objects of the Association
are eminently laudable anti wise,
and should be faithfully observed
and carried nut. IVe should he
careful that no false northern his
lories fall into the hands of our
children to warp and pri-jiidicc
their minds against the South,
and to impress them with errone
mis notions as to the cause and
results of the conflict. We left
thc union not because we hated it.

acknowledged and appreciated the
better will it be for the third

The St. Louis Convention settled
that question beyond all contro
versy so far as the Democratic
party is concerned, and the Sena

tective speeches over the country,
is clearly violating the supreme
authority of his parly. We
would not misrepresent our senior

that if he can't do anything to

a back seat and keep quiet. If lie

Editor* Hitter,prise «t- Appeal;
A quiet eitizetfewhn takes little
active part in politics, but srbo
looks on. with lire deepest sympa
thy for tlie public welfare, begs to
be allowed a few words on the
present exigency:
The writer has had no word of
consultation with cither of the
gentlemen, whom lie takes the lih
erty to name. He is acting on
thc idea that the country has the
right to call on any member of so
ciety for needed service. He lias
no reason to suppose, tiial either
of these- gentlemen desire, or even
would accept, llie (losilion sug
grated.
How much better is Randolph
likely to do for herself, than by
wending hack to the House Mr.
Columbus Taylor? He is no ora
tor. But how many orators have
you got in the county, who would
be likely to go to the Legislature?
He does not pretend to be a great
statesman. But winch ol the
men. who may lie thought of for
the [msiiion. or who are likely to
be chosen, is n statesman? He is
im-dcsl, and that is not a fault.—
But one who chooses to converse
with Mr. Taylor, will find him as
intelligent as llie men who com
uionly are chosen to the Legists-
line. Tliisiniie.il is said in great
moderation. But I can go further.
Mr. Taylor is a thoroughly honest
■nan, in business and in politics.
That is rare excellence. The peo
ple can rely upon it. that he would
do nothing as a Legislator, lint
what meets his sincere approval.
He is absolutely sober, and n se
rious man. As a member of the
House, he would be always in bis
place. He would work faithfully
00 any cnmiuiltee. When many
iiieiiilmis are out about the city,
attending shows, and seeking
pleasure, ur engaging in dissipa
tion, he will be in his seat in the
House, or in the committee room,
listening closely to llie leading of
measures pnqmsrd, and lotlic re
ports of committees. and the ar
guments of speakeis. As a nee-
eessary result, with his sound,
common sense, and good judg
ment, he will otlener be right and
well informed as to pending ques
lions than some brighter men.
who have so much else to do, be
stiles the business, for which the
people elect llicm. Mr. Taylor’s
excellent moral character aud sen
Muieuls secure, that his associates
and those whose advice and opin
ions arc most likely to affect his
judgment aud action, will lie the
best men in the body.
Thus far, thc writer lias spoken
only of what might be rx|x-cled ol
Air. Taylor, from Ids known |>er-
sonal qualities. But lie lias just
served a term in llie same posi
liou. Wherein did lie fail to do
right? Wlial folly did lie commit?
Was he not as constant to his
place and duty of a member, as
any one could have asked? The
writer knows, that his associations
there were such as allure desciih
ed. He also knows, tiial Mr. Tay
lor stood high aiming the members,
for unqualified integrity, and fin
sound judgment. His advice had
the weight, which always attends
the opinions of a man known to
he sincere, and whose conscience
prompts him to use all his oppor
tunilies for learning what is right
to lie done. He is a gentleman,
ot good temper, pleasant face, and
'nodrst and agreeable uiauners.—
In short, lie made oue of the best
members of the bouse; leaving out
that small number, whose leading
talents and attainments make
them naturally the lenders. Would,
that the Georgia Legislature were
more largely made up of meu ao
good.
Now, that Air. Taylor does not
come out and ask for the nouiina
lion, ought not to keep tlie people
from calling on him to serve them.

There has been, first and last, a
