It is profitable, just now, in view ol the serious encroach ments of the federal government, be coming—as it is—more centralized every day, robbing the states of their rights; we say that in view of these dangerous centralizing tendencies, the following from a speech delivered by the late Samuel J. Tilden, at Roches ter, N. Y. in 1S71, should be read throughout the length and breadth of the land. Mr. Tilden said: The creed of the democratic party is comprised in two ideas: hirst, to limit as much as possible all govern mental power, enlarging always and everywhere the dominion of individual judgment and action; secondly, to throw back the governmental powers necessary to be exercised as much as possible upon the states and the local ities, approaching in every case the in dividuals to be aflected. These ideas dominate over the democratic parly, and find in it their best representative. The opposite ideas—to meddle with everything properly belonging to the individual, and to centralize all governmental powers—express the tendencies of the republican parjy. , , . Under this inspiration the federal government is rapidly seizing upon all the powers of human society. It has assumed to regulate the suffrage, and threatens to take the control of all elections. I oppose centralism, because it is incompatible with civil liberty. I oppose centralism because it creates an irresponsible power, and an irresponsible power is always cor rupt. , ^4 ^ The Lease Signed. Until yesterday the Nashvilie, Chat tanooga and St; Louis, which sub mitted the highest and best bid for the lease of the Western and Atlantic, was in position to forfeit $25,000 and back out of their trade. It isn’t so now. The lease was signed yesterday in duplicate, and the great seal of the state was attached. The $500,000 in state bonds was formally delivered to Treasurer Ilarde min and his receipt taken therefor. That is the size of the forfeit ii the event the new lessees go back on their trade, ond a backout now is out of the question. The contract was signed by Gover nor Gordon and by Secretary of State l»hil Cook, on behalf of the state and by President J. IV. Thomas and Secretary ]. H. Ambrose, on behalf of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St Louis. Attorney General Anderson was there to see it all legally done.—Con stitution. Let it Come. 'I lie shatU.ws of the force bill, nor pending in ilu senate, is hovt ring over the south. What shall we do ? is the ques ion. Is 11 better to meet it with, force, or adopt some oth< r p.lan ?. Hot header! southerners arc ready to meet the foul wrong with fore: ? The Constitution m a double leaded leader, suggests another plan. We subjoin the following extracts from the article: With the promulgation of the force biil every white human being in the south between the cradle and the grave will unite with his fellow country men, and stand with them to the end There will be no more discord or fac tions in the demosracy, and around the standard will rally the last white republican. A common danger will bring the whites of the south together, sinking all the differences of the past, and sacrificing every petsonal ambi- ti in for the supreme interest of the hour. Then the world will sec a solid south ! Uy way ol giving due notice, let us say right here, that when the wires flash the tidings that the president has signed the lorce bill, The Constitution will instuiidy call a mass meeting to organize a Home Rule League. It will be the most determined gathering ol people ever seen in Georgia’s capi tal, and its action will be spontaneous, unanimous and as speedy as the live thunder when it leaps from its home in the burning clher. The boycott, with every white man, woman and child in the south behind it, will be mightier than all the armies whose marching feet once shook this continent from sea to sea. 05 JY iinoi.i SulphurSprings, Suwance, Florida.

F.a. 7 C d 1 m lilll!l,!Xli![ui!S WHOLES AL ( bninr.;.— When Abraham I.incoln became President of the United States the entire revenues of the government were less than $50,000,000. Now the people are taxed to raise nine times that amount, and yet this vast revenue is insufficient to quiet the appetite of robbers who pretend that their hunger is patriotism.—Telegraph. Col. Elliot Shepard declares that the least opposition to the torce bill after it becomes a law will cause one patriots to spring to arms and heir march tethe south. Wc c colonel will feel it his duty to 1 the front rank.—Telegraph. O, no, the doughty Col. will not think of heading the army; he will be with the baggage train. Paralysis will seize the congested capital, the industries, the commerce and the railway lines running from north to south, and hundrees of thou sands of desperate and idle working men in the great cities of the north and west will fiercely turn upon society and raise the cry I “Bread or blood.” If we try the boycott under the force bill, we shall see revived the old- time enthusiasm and patriotism ot the early sixties. In those days our rich men laid aside their costly attire and proudly arrayed themselves in home made jeans. Our ladies refused to purchase goods of northern make, and wore checked homespun dresses. It will not be necessary to repeat the sacrifices of the past. Our ports are open, and with our monopoly of the greatest money products ol the world we need not deny ourselves a single comfort or luxury. % * * Home Rule Leagues will be organ ized everywhere in the south, and the members will pledge themselves te buy not a dollar’s worth of anything that is produced or manufactured in the north. Commercially speaking, au impassible wall will rise between the sectious. * * * It will the salvation of the solid south, and will throw off lor all time to come the foul domination ol the revo lutionists who are trying to make an Ireland or India out of the land of Washington, Jefierson and Lee ; a land of sovereign states with millions ot freemen, who know their rights and dare to maintain them at any cost! This appears to he the solution ol the problem. "I am ready to join the boycott, to day,” said a leading merchant of l'hom- asville, yesterday, as he traced Mason and Dixon’s line on a map. ‘‘I am ready to pledge myself,” he continued, “not to buy a dollar’s worth of good* north of that line, if the fo-ce bill passes.” Yes, let Home Rule Leagues be oiganized throughout the south. Our very existence is at stake. Ihom- asville and Southern Georgia, always true to home rule, will lock shields with the balance ol the state, in fight ing the ihfamous measure to the last. Let every southern city and commun ity speak out. Meetings should be called and resolutions adopted pledg ing the people to the course outlined in the Constitution’s able article. Not in Her Set: “Now pray for Susie Bates.” said Mrs. Simeral to 6- year-old Flossie, who was saying her prayers. “Susie is quite sick.” ‘‘Why, mamma,” said Flossie, “leant pray for her. She doesn’t belong to our crowd.”—Epoch. _ “If the force bill passes,” says a Georgia editor, “wc will convert the office towel into a club, melt the old hand press into an iron musket, and start out 0:1 the warpath for Tom Reed and the rest of them,” In an interview with the Rochester Union (Dcm.) Boh Jiigersoll says: "I believe jn protecting wlmt arc called llic infant industries, but nftor these ‘infants’ get to be six feet high and wear No, 12 boots it is about time to stop rocking the cradle, especially when the ‘infant’ tells you that if you stop rocking lie will get out of the cradle and kick your head off.” Troy Steam THOMASVILLE, GA.
