VANOEy! CRANFORD A GANTT PROP'RS. T. L~ GANTT, Editor. 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- re from .Yankeedom. Col. Carey '. Styles caned tills creature like a 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 ery respectable paper in the State, who refuse to. pollute their columns with his n«me.

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 cotton In one arnge or another. It waa appropriate that the only world’# exposi tion ever held in the southern atatea waa named for 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 ing through the vast hall devoted to the exposition of new machinery and new methods at that expo sition all Visitors concluded that the most impor tant Jemona to he learned were in connection with cotton in one stage or another from the seed to the 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 ed not one particle of lint could be crown & tk. 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 son as a food for stock. Mow it ia held to be one of the moat Important parts of the cotton plant. Ev ery ton ol seed will yield thirty-five gallons of oil, worth lift. The body ofthe seed that ialeft makes a food for stock that ia better than corn, hay or oats, bulk for bulk, ora fertiliser that is incomparable for worn out lands. The hull can be used as a ashes are sold at a high market value. It has been discovered that to atrip the oil from the aeed im prove* rather than weakens ita value as a food or 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 ton aeed can be manipulated has added dollars to this staple southern crop. In many other ways are the economies at work In this direction! Only a day or two *iuce, three gentlemen representing the largest paper manu facturing companies iu America, stopped in At lanta on a tour through the south which they had undertaken with the purpoee of baying the cotton motes which foil from the kina and have been thrown away as worthless. They stated ih*t they were ready to engage at fair prices five thousand tens each of these aiotea that have heretofore been swept from the gin houses as waste. Their calcu- by the ear* - - - lation i avingof this < Item of wastage from two to fife percent ceuld *be to the value of the cotton crop, and hundreds of thousands of dollars thus saved to the southern former.- They are oow moving towards Mew Or leans and establishing ageuclea for the purchase of THE MOST IMPORTANT INVENTION QT LATE YIAES. Bnt we are firm in the belief, a belief that we have frequently expressed In theae columns, that the mo t important invention made in the culture, haaling or manufacture of cotton since the inven tion of the aln by Whitney, ia the invention of the Clarke Seed Cotton Cleaner. This machine is in tended to clean atom or dirty cotton, adding from Mo the * Hot For Aleck.
