ADDRESS OF HON* NELSON TIFT TO
THE CITIZENS OF THE SECOND
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.
The present condition of tbe country in
bordering upon irretrievable disaster aud
r«in.
The Radical party now in power, has
violated the Constitution, subverted the
rights of the States, destroyed the sacred
guaranties of personal liberty and the frees
dom of elections ; has impoverished the
people by heavy and unusual taxation ;
squandered the public land and treasure to
enrich monopolies and partisan favorites,
and established' military despotism over
peaceful -communities and States to force
them to the accomplishment of their selfish,
corrupt and tyrannical designs. No bouest
citizen can speak or think of the action and
present condition of our State Government
without feelings of sorrow aud iudiguation
for the pact, cad apprehension for the fu
ture.
With sr. nnscriqniloaß Executive, and a
Legislature organized by & corrupt "ring,”
co-operatin'? with a United States Military
Court, packed with men who were not
elected by the people, their course has been
marked with bad laws, extravagance, cor
ruption, a disregard of the Constitution
and of the rights and interest of the peo
plcT
Two more year? of such rule would bring 1
ruin and bankruptcy to all the great inter
est of the State, and would destroy the hope
of securing constitutional liberty in the fu*
tme. Our opponents are at work day and
night in the ‘Loyal Leagues,’ and ‘Repub
lican Clubs,’ ordering and controling their
oath-bound colored men as their political
slaves, sending their emissaries over the
countiy to propagate falsehoods and mis
representations, ?ud to incite enmity an.u
hatred between the white and colored, peo
ple. ;
The colored people siioula V,c convinced
that their civil end political rights are se
cured to them in the s>de manner, and to
the same extent* the rights of the white
people, and having a cctnraon intet' w , s t
iu the an( j prosperity, of the
we shti jtd work together, and elee t good
C)^r . 4 to otHce, and secure an honest and
economical administration of \ha Govern"
ment. They need instructions aato Iheii
rights and interests, and, They need protec
tion against, the tyranny and threats of
violence from their liadical drivers. Let
this be a part our duty,, People of Geor*
gia 1 let us make a;u effort worthy of the
great cause for which we contend. Let
no personal sacrifice stand in the way of
our duty to the State from the evils
which surround us and threaten our de~
struct? on. Every man should be a
sior.arv : every community should be at
Unit. JjThere should be no division upon
! candidates, or otherwise, A single vole
may determine our fate. Let every man be
at the polls. Finally, let us offer cur earn*,
est prayers and best ehoits to the Almighty
Ruler of men and nations for the salvation
of our beloved State.

such a company ever moved through our

band proceeded it, and*uo shouts greeted it
fron\ the side walks.
It passed to the Fair Grounds, where the
horses and wagons are to be sold and the
company disbanded. The Murdered Cob

T r _jE Census of Missouri. —We give com-
J ete returns of the enumeration of the peo»
pie of this State by the census of 1850, iu
all but four counties. In one of these (Car
ter) the population is estimated by the de
puty marshals. In the others (Buchanan;
Clay and Livingston) the officersdiave not
quite concluded the additions, but esti*«
mate the number embraced in the omitted
lists at between 8000 and 9000. In round
numbers, tbe population of Missouri may
be set down at 1,712,000. This is a most
astonishing progress when we consider
that during one-half the decade since thq
last census, Missouri felt more than any
other bordering State in the Union tbe tor*
rible devastation® and alarms of war. The
population of Missouri in 1806 was 1,182,'

ordinary obstacles by which our growth

Youvu Men Ssocld Ho —Every young
man should make tho moat of himsolf, intellectu
ally, morally, and physically,
He should depeud upon his own efforts to ac
complish those results.
Ho should bo willing to take the ad vice from
tkoso competent to give it, *ud to follow such ad
vice, unless his own judgement or conviction, pro*
pcrly founded, should otherwise direct.
If he is unfortunate enough to hava a rich and
indulgent father, ho must do tho best, under tho
circumstances, which will be to conduct himself
very much as though ho had not the obstacles to
overcome.
Ho should not be discouraged by small begin
nings, but remember that alt great results have
been wrought out from apptaiantly slight causes.
He should never under any circumstances bo idle.
If he cannot find the employment ho prefers, lot
him come as near his desire as posiblo—ho will
thus reach the object of his ambition. All you
young men have “inalienable rights ” among which
none are greater nor more saored than thoir pri
vilege to bo somebody.

AN ENTHUSIASTIC ADMIRER*
The New Orleans Picayune says:—A
countryman at tLe theatre, the other night,
as the escort of some ladies, retired at an
‘utermission and returned with a pound or
two of peanuts wrapped in a paper, and
two huge bananas sticking from his pocket-
Just then, however, and before he had time
to take his scat, one of the actresses whq
had especially won his admiration, come to
the footlights and warbled a beautiful meK
ody. Tho full, rich voice, exquisite in ins
tonation aud breathing strains fttfnost di
vine, completed the conquest of the countrys
man's heart, and unable to restrain his de
light, he heaved ou, the stage his peanuts,
baDauasand pocket handkerchief as a tri
bnte to the fair enchantress. There was
momentary astonishment visible upon the
faces on the stage, a single interval of hesh
lation, which wa3 removed by the country
man's voice full and clear, ‘Take 'cm, gal,
by jingo, you're welcome.'
A New York telegram says : —“Will)
the present month a remarkablo newspa
per, if it maybe so called, has sprang into
existauce in this city. It is printed in He-'
brew character, bnt it is written in a
patoi3 made up of Hebrew and broken Ger
man, which neither a German scholar nor a
Hebrew scholar is able to read. l£ is
called the Jewish Post, ayd is published
because there are many Jews
here who understand no regular language,
and know very little of what is going on,
because they read no newspapers. They
kuow nothing of the business swindles of
this country, and therefore are cheated.
They know nothing of the religious swin
dlers, and therefore are misled. They wish
to liuo herein accordance with the customs
which they acquired in their youth, be
cause they do not know what this free
and educated country demands, and they
are therefore despised. They hold fast to
their old prejudices, and arc therefore de
luded. The Jews who have come from
Russian-Poiand are exceedingly debased,
and a newspaper like the Jewish Post has
long becD a mailer of urgent necessity.
Henry Clay used to say that there were
three classes of people with whom it was
never safe to quarrel. First,
for the reason that they could denounce m e
from the pulpit, and I had none through
which to reply. Second— editors, for they
had the most poworful engines from which
they could evciy ‘.day hurl wrath and fury
upon me, and I had none through which to
reply. And finally, with women, for they
would have the last word any how.
