Atxiut 6 o'clock Saturday evening a

On last Thursday, the peoples’ can
didate for Congress, Col. A. D. Candler,
arrived in Lawreneevllle. In antici
pation of his arrival, a considerable
crowd had assembled at the depot with
a brass band, to give him a hearty re
ception. When the train roiled in be
was welcomed by stirring strains of
musk* ami cheers from the crowd. He
eame out on the platform and was in
troduced by MaJ. Simmons, and re
turned thanks to the crowd for the re
ception, modestly stating that it was
not him but the principles which he
represented, that had secured him sueh
distinguished honor.
He was accompanied to the hotel by
a large part sf the crowd. lie after
wards came down to the public square
and was introduced to many of our
citizeus who were anxious to shake
hands with the coming Congressman
from the 9th District. He occasionally
met with some old comrade who knew
hiui on tlie tented-field and had not
seen him since the war. There is a
strong tie that hind men together who
were associates in danger and suffering.
He met men here who with him suff
ered the horrors of the siege at Vicks
burg; anil far away front their homes
looked disease anil starvation in the
face, with the same intrepidity that
they moved down on yaukee batteries
belching forth leaden death.
His plain, unpretentious liearingaiiil
courteous manner won friends every
where. ne is just us polite to the
humblest laboring man as to the Judge
on the bench, and is at home among
the farmers and mechanics, in whose
interest he has tailored with marked
success.
As soon as Court adjourned the crowd
assembled at the stand, where the
speaker was introduced by Mr. M. L.
Simmons with a few appropriate re
marks.
He liegan his speech by expressing
his gratification at meeting so many of
the farmers, mechanics and laboring
men of Gwinnett, as that was the class
he desired to talk to in reference to
the great questions of government in
which all were alike interested. He
was not in the habit of making politi
cal sfieeches, as this was the second
one he had ever attempted. Since the
war he had devoted his time to deve
loping the material interests of the
country, anil not in manipulating its
polities, and therefore lie did not claim
to l»e skilled in tlie art of public speak
ing.
When gr *at issues are presented to
the ]>eople, it is necessary that
they should meet together, take
counsel of cucli other and discuss
them calmly and dispassionately.

There is danger of the time return
ing when the people will be burdened
with taxes and your government plac
ed in the hands of men who will waste
your earnings. Mr. Speer and I are
mere incidents of the campaign. You
are to vote for principles and good
government, and it is a matter of lit
tle importance to you whether either
one of the aspirants for congress suc
ceeded. ’When you come to the ballot
box to settle the issues between us,
you should not stop to consider the
men, but vote for the principles we
represent. You should not ask, who
are you? but what do you believe?
Whether the principles that I advo
cate should prevail, or those represent'
ed by my opponent.
One of us has been nominated by a
party, If elected he will he bound to
carry out its ancient principles—prin
ciples that have been recognized by
good men as important to good gov
ernment fbr one huudred years. Men
rise and fall, but principles arel immu
table.
The party I represent is composed
of men who belonged to both of the
old political parties. After the war,
old whigs and democrats laid down
their ancient prejudices rad united to
battle against a new foe, and they are
standing together to-day. The issues
that divided the old parties sink into
Insignificance in comparison with the
issues that are presented to the people
to-day. Who compose this new coali
tion? There are three elements. First,
there are the radicals who are seeking
to change our form of government in
to a centralized despotism, the negro
vote, aud democrats who have been
seduced Into uniting with them.
Who are opposed to the Democratic
party in this distric ? Men like Hen
ry P. Farrow, who recently weut to
Habersham county, gathered a few
negroes in an old outhouse and had
them so send delegates to the State
Convention. Gen. Longstreet, the
United States Marshal, the man who
trained his gatling guns on southern
white men in the streets of New Or
leans to maintain a negro govern
ment; the deputy marshals, revenue
collectors and their deputies, the in'
formers, spies rad. pimps, who. are

fighting me all over the district, and

Mr. Candler was interrupted by

asked him at the request of Speer, to
furnish the proof of the charge made
in his letter that money had been sent
south to bribe voters. The sjieaker at !
once turned to the evidence taken tie-
fore a congressional committee in
which the witness stated that $106,000
had heen distributed in seventeen con
gressional districts iu the south. The
reading of the testimony elieited loud
cheers from the crowd-
He then discussed the injunction
which Mr. Hpecr had obtained to pre
vent his letters to the president and
and his address was received with tre
mendous applause, showing the speak

of his arguments. A committee of emi
nent citizens occupied the stage with
Mr. Stephens. After returning thanks
for the compliment of addressing so dis
tinguished and large an audience, he
proceeded to discuss the salient points
of his oration, asking his hearers not to
strike till they heard liim, and if, after
he had spoken, they could not agree
