THE ATLANTA RING.
We h»ve more than once Altailed to the
existence of a ring of political tricksters,
with headquarters in Atlanta, who have
for several years past shaped the poll
Sea ot the sttty and dictated.tb thepeo-
pie whom they.: must support. ..This
hand of rlngsteiw are ali-powerfol, and
they are fast tightening the coils around
tho voters and If not chewed in $eir
wild career are, destined to become to
Georgia what Tammany has been to
New York, and wHleventualty burst up
the Democratic party. These men have
tl\eirregui»r‘con\*entlon8, and they lip
tend to make their voice the volpe of
the people. We are reliably informed
that prior to Mr. Stephens’ name being
proposed hv the independent party that
tills Atlanta conclave met in secret
sion and agreed upon a full state ticket,
with Blount at its head for governor
but when they s*W the strength ofthe
Sage of hilierty JIall they called a
ond convention and agreed to open nego
tiation with ‘Mr. StkpiiknS. The old
gentleman greedily swajjowed the terupt
ing bait, and the oopsequence was Ahat
tlie ring made a Jonah of poor Blount,
and east hint overheard that the rfcpf of
tlie ticket might be saved; and there r »s
now a eut-umWdried , schedule for the
July convention, and all that tlie dele
gates are expected to do ia to mta, re
ceive their orders’ from Brown, Gordon,
ColoGitt, Stephans, Constitution A Co.,
nominate the men proposed by the ring
ami then adjourn. Tt is also whispered
that anotlier combination is on foot, by
which Col. O. A. Bacon will comedown
ip favor of Mr. Stephens, and for this
mierilice he is to receive the nomination
of congressman at large. We can scarce
ly accredit this lost report, as Col. Bacon
wui I knows that such a humiliating trade
would forever kill him with the intelli
gent and honest voters of Georgia, who
have centered upon him to not only com-
lial that Atlanta ring but as the stand
anl hearer of the anti-STaraENs party.
We do not countenance any move that
tends to divide the democratic party;
but it is our duty to denounce and ex
pose such flagrant usurpations of the
the popular will as that now existing at
our capital. Tiiis ring is a strong com.
lunation of both money and influence,
and it will lie a hard task to break it—
hut unless we expect to see our state
radicalized and tlie democratic party
split asunder, tlie people must rise in
their might and suppress this conclave,
of politicians banded together to rule
Georgia and shape her officers in the
tlie interest of their own aspirations and
to their personal gain. That such a
ring cr ista no one can deny. In fact,
iu members openly flaunt their strength
tu the faces of the people and defiantly
tell them to break it if they can. Un
less tills is done we had as well abandon
the elective franchise and give the
shaping of our affairs into the hands of
those trickster*. Let every true demo-
. crat in Uooogia make up his mind to
administer a scathing rebnke to these
self-constituted rulers of Georgia, and at
tho July convention send your best men
as delegates, who go pledged to contend
for tho candidates wanted by their peo
ple nnd not the men dictated by the At
lanta thimble-riggers.
THE STEPHENS INTERVIEWS.
Every time tho “Old Commoner'
submits himself to an interview he
makes matters worse. In his lost he
declares that in his first he was refer
ring to a Chicago telegram and not to
tlie one sent by Mr. Speer to the inde
pendents in Atlanta. The poor old
limn lias lost his memory. It is pain
fill io have to expose the weakness of
one wlio has occupied so great a space
in tlie minds of the-people, but candor
compels us to say that there is no ex
planation of his contradictions except
upen the ground .of dotage.
L Under date of May 27th, there Was
telegraphed to the Atlanta Constitu
tion the following: "To-night I asked
Mr. Stephens if he had ever authorized
Mr. Speer to send such a telegram.'
He replied promptly and with em
plias'a, “I never did.”
"Did he read it to you as the dis
patch to Dr. Felton declares before he
sent it?”
“If ho did I have completely forgot
ten it.”
• - * * • * •
I said to him distinctly, "Send what
you please; you speak, for yourself;
you send nothing by my authority.
This was oil I knew of it until I saw
ids telegram in the papers. While
there was nothing In it, I must say it
was sent entirely without authority
from me, and if I ever saw it as Mr.
Speer says, I have completely forgot
ten it.”
What was tlie astonishment of the
people when in less than a week after
these decided utterances Mr. Stephens
takes back every word and admits un
der the evident dictation of Mr. 8peer
that the telegram was written iu his
roonl, on blanks furnished by him,
that it was corrected in two particu
lars by him. He then adds.
" There is no issue between me and
Mr. Speer, i A. H. Stephens.”
This was a back summersault No. 1,
on the Speer telegram. In his last
interview he has given us No 2,
when he says that he was not
ferrlhg in the first Interview to tbo
telegram Mr. Speer-scnt to Atlanta,
but to a Chicago telegram.
What an Idle attempt to cover np
his track?. The shortest of memories
ought to have taugift him better. A
child could have kept him stndghter
than that. It takes but half an qye
to see that In the first interview be
was talKing about the Speer tele
gram,.and nothing bnt the Speer tele,
gram, and there Is not a hint or so
gestion of a Chicago telegram In tl
whole of It.
The truth Is he had forgotten when
he had the first Interview, wfytt had
passed- between him and Mr. Spent,
When the latter's telegram was writ
ten, and Speer burned back from
Fortress Monroe and set him right.
But be didn’t stay right. As soon
as Speer was out of eight he forgot
again and oomes out with the astound-
Ing announcement that he was not re
ferring to the Speer telegram at all. It
ispitinilto aee this poor; old-man,
whom we all respect and some of ns
love and revere, gibbetted before the
publio by his own sSlf oontradlctloi
It Is a sad spectacle to see him drags
Iqto the arena for selfish ends of ol
era with his memory In ruins and sub
ject to the dictatious-of Mr. Speer one
day and F. H. R. the next, each one
of them forcing him to contradict
what the other has induced him to say.
Intis administration as governor is
forecast by the events ofthe past few
wefeks.-we will have in the executive
orilce “a foml old man” who will be
bandied back and forth by the contra
ry and contending influences first of
Dr. Felton and Ur- Speer, and then of
Gav. Colquitt and the Constitution,
whichever one of them gets the last
word will have it all his way f|th
Governor Stephens. '■ •
PETER F. LAWSHE.
To the Citizen* of thr' XinlH Dittrirtjf-
In tlie last issue of that infamous ne-
;ro sheet, tlie Gainesville Koutbrou*
ts editor, oneFeter F. Lawslie/ lias
attacked my character in a most alau-
derous manner—doubtless at tlie kid
ding of his master in Washington. It
is a condescension for any gentleman
to reply to the puppy who engineers
tile Southron, for Lawshe is known as
tlie worst scoundrel, the most con
teinptlbie sneak and boot-lick, the
most arrant cownrd—aye, tlie dirtiest
dog that ever followed the scent of
reconstruction carrion South with
that thieving hoarde of carpet-bag-

dog, and he took it like the. cowardly
puppy that he ie- Insult Peter P.Xaw-
she, and he sneaks into his den and
there soft from chastisement ejecta his
'filthy andifirty abuse at his assailant.
The only notice that he meritsXfom, a
ntleman is to carve your indigna-
>n upon the creature’s back with a
cow-hide. When attacked by parties
whom he has maligned and slandered
Speer's Pete; grovels at their, fee* and
I romiscs to go. and sin no more; bnt in
te next issue of His filthy sheet repeats
his falsehoods. This thing Lawshe is
devoid of honor, Bereft of principle,
and is buta servile tool in the hands
of Emory Speer, who uses him to do
his dirty work. He is a scrofolus
•cab upon journalism and a vampyre
upon our district, disgracing our po
litical contests and Meeting to inject
bis incendiary and Y'ankee doctrines
into the colored race and array them
against the whites. I hereby denou nee
Pf ter F. Lawshe as a scoundrel, a
liar, a coward and a villlan of the
deepest and most contemptible dye.
Praise from such « brute would be an
insult to a gentleman. His foul, dirty
columns reflect each week the charac
ter of tlie man and the infamous cause
that he espouses. He has been
dropped from the notice of nearly ev

Thoughts on tbo 8ubject.
After all that may be said of other crops, and

It U iinpurUnt, of courae, that we ahould make
tlie bread and meat crop* which are to austaln mau
and beast while the money crop la belns made. But
afler all it la cotton that jjWes to the south her
wealth, her glory and her power. In the planting
o: cotton, in the handling of cotton, and in the man
ufacture of cotton aha finds the leading business tbr
Iter farms, her commerce and har industries.
While other aectlona can compete with her in any
crop that aha ttrewa, it ia In cotton alone that ahe
ia unique and nuapproacbable, while therefore in
cidental argument may uige planting of other
crops and the advancement ol other induatrios the
tnobt important and eaaential atndy of Which the
■ouiheru journaiiia or former can give his time ia

It waa appropriate that the only world’# exposi

this king of the aonthern fields, and no name waa
ao potent in bringing into our territory delegations
from other aeetiona as that ol cotton, and afler go

There la no study that ia more fascinating than
that involved in cotton culture, handling or man
ufocturiug. Therein no subject, strange as it may
appear; upon which the south is more ignorant and
ttw world at largo MM thoroughly informed. It ia
only ten yearn ainoe we laughed at Mr. Atkinson
when he said that If a variety of cotton that yield

northern states it would be the moat lucrative cr»p
that the Mew York fanners could grow.
Still we have been learned rapidly of the tneo
and abuses of this wonderful plant. Ten yean age
a majority of the former* in the oof th considered
the cotton aeed that fell from the gin when the lint
waa shipped, waa a worthlem bulk to be burned or
deetioyed. Its value as a fertiliser waa scarcely
understood mad It waa held that it waa next to poi

ery ton ol seed will yield thirty-five gallons of oil,

a food for stock that ia better than corn, hay or oats,

for worn out lands. The hull can be used as a

discovered that to atrip the oil from the aeed im

fertilizer. The oil can be so refined a* to be used
for illuminating purposes, for lubrication or as a
substitute, cheaper, cleanlier and healthier for
lard. The discovery ofthe formula by which cot

dollars to this staple southern crop.

Olyphant, Ark., bought mo of the Clean art and
ran through tlt.TOo ponedsof dirty, trashy cotton
fur which two dollar* per hundred pounds hod
beta offered.. After running through the cleaner
it was purchased atttSSpar hundred pounds. Thu*
there wean gain of JJ3.SU on 4,700 pounds of toad
cotton, or 114.25 a beta. Two samples of this cot-
urn attar tt waa ginned were Mot to rtl. Louis. The
one that waa run through the claaoer hefore being

" (Fe would not think of halog without ooo. If

Ware, of Sparta,borg, B. U, ran to aold cotton
that had boon ran through tha Clarke cloaaar for
